Opening of Foggiare Boutique

August 10, 2009 · 4 Comments

Mad rush of adrenaline on Sunday.
Transporting boxes after boxes.
Packing and unpacking.
It was really crazy.
Started at 11am.
Left the Boutique at 1am.

Tired to the max.
I am down with flu today.
But somehow, I am still not tired.
I am on my final bout of energy I guess :)
Excited and all cos..

Foggiare’s very first boutique is open!
At Square 2!
A small lil space of 140sq feet sees about 5 flower stands and 2 flower pots.
Let’s hope the management don’t make noise.

But really, thank you…
Auntie Jenny, Jingie, Jen and YZ, Christin, YQ, Meizhen, Wenshan, Debbie and Alex, Gerald and E-lynn, Evie’s Dad and Family, Evie :)
For the flowers!

Jackie, Huiling, Huiting, Raymond, Isabelle, TY, Jasp, Auntie Jenny, Jingie, Jen, Christin, Christin’s Mom, Meizhen, Gerald, E-lynn, Evie, Evie’s parents for coming down :)

Jingie, Evie, Mom and Daddy for the help :)
Mom and Dad for making the Boutique possible :)

I really appreciate what everyone have done for me, thank you.
Twice in the day, I held back tears in my eyes.
For those who knew me since 2005, it has been my dream to open my own Boutique, and I have realised it…
And what makes it most special is the people who realised it together with me :)

Thank you!

I think I have sold my life away, at least for the next year..
Waiting for UBS’ offer (if any)…

I am still awaiting photos, but up soon I promise.
And so will the posts that have been backdated to 2 months ago.
I am really sorry, but I have been hell busy with the intern and the Boutique…

So..
Come by, say hi..
Square 2, #02-73
10 Sinaran Drive, S307506

Assertiveness

July 9, 2009 · 6 Comments

Loads of things happened..
To put it in keywords..
Trust, heart breaks, knowledge, experience.
Things became clearer somehow with the people in my life..
Sometimes, I dont know who my real friends are..
People whom I thought are… proved to not be.
Yes by saying this, I know I probably hurt the feelings of some of you…
But these are the people, whom I know are always there for me..
True and real.
Though sometimes, I don’t quite understand why they would say certain things…

But one thing for sure…
After everything I have gone through this Summer..
I came to know of a new real best friend…
And wierdly, its a guy.
I don’t know why, its so easy talking to him..
Maybe its the honesty he has, how he puts himself in my shoes (or maybe its cos he’s in the same situation too), and how he actually teach me to think from a guy’s pov…
Thank you really, you know who you are.
Especially for that two nights of me talking to you, and you talking to me.

As for the fiasco that has happened..
(Are you wondering which one? Sorry I am typing in codewords.)
I am thankful really.
In many ways…
Because out of it, I grew stronger, be more wary of the people around me..
And also, to cherish people who are really true.

Lastly, thank you to you you you and yous in my workplace.
For helping me, for teaching me, for telling me things nobody would have told me.
1st you, buddy
2nd you, intern 1
3rd you, intern 2
4th you, the big boss (p)
and the many yous, my team, and the boss who left but has facebook.
and also the new interns who came to join us, and whom i learnt about..
and the you who kept me company on MA when I was struggling to keep awake during 2 to 6.

THANK YOU! :)

Crazy boy did this for me! :)
And the Tsks :D







That was the morning for us! :)


Lunch at C Nai! My favourite! Keke!


I fell the moment I came out of that roller blading booth!
-_-



It is really amusing, Just! :P


Jing’s really my bestie. HAHA.


All of us!
Trying to stand still!


Hello! Hope we didn’t terrorise you that much at ECP keke.

That very night…





No ‘chips’ inside, so had to write our own!



Woo! Durians! :D



Yummy la!






Hmm, crazy us :D

Evie’s Surprise 27th Day 1

June 12, 2009 · 1 Comment

Went to Evie’s house early in the morning to grab the clothes I think he would be needing.

Then rushed back to J8 to meet Jingie to borrow Evie’s library books (his present) as well as to collect the cake from Coffeebean :)
Then gungho us headed back to my house and wrapped up the stuff and put the things we packed in with the help of TY and Jasp :)
And then, we headed down to Goldkist by cab.

The chalet was okay, not fantastic, just like an older version of Costa Sands Pasir Ris (Not that it’s new to start with)
Did up the decorations fast and we started playing mini mahjong and teaching TY how to play.
It’s really amusing to see TY struggle with all the new jargons and all.

Then it was time for me to head down to Vivocity to pick Evie up to head to ‘Marilyn’ ’s party. :P
The 3 of them konked out in Goldkist.
Cabbed down and I was early, so I hanged around a while while waiting for Evie.
Got a call and realised the ML interns were at Harry’s Bar.
Joined them for a while and met up with the HR lady who interviewed me. :P
Awkward!


Almost all the interns!





Random photos :)



With Evie in the newly self-manufactured dress.
Oh but its sold out already. Oops.
Only available through backorder in Navy Blue!

And then we really rushed all the way down to Goldkist..
Cos I got a call from Mar (aka Jasp) that most were here.
How stressed, esp with the jam here..
Sorry for everyone who stood around and waited :(
Felt really guilty.

So, when we reached, Evie still wanted to go to the washroom.
By then, I already smsed ‘Mar’ to tell her that I was here.
I bet they were all sitting/standing in the dark like idiots. Oops!
Then I tell Evan, “How come so dark? I thought the party’s here?”
“Cannot open leh, you try?”
He was hesitating, then I was really irritated and I said, you try la :P
Then when he did I quickly pushed him in. LOL

HEHE really hilarious photo caught by Just.

After that.. IT was business as usual. :D

The decor



Birthday boy..


Crazy Tsks!

The huge starry cake from Coffeebean.
Nothing fantastic, okay I guess



Spot the number of candles!



Singing his song! :P

Group photos

With his secondary sch buds


Poly friends


Army pals



And of course, lovely us :D


And me :D

After everyone left..
We started the Open your presents thing, but somehow it wasn’t as interesting with Evan.
Maybe he opens too slowly I don’t know.







The lightings courtesy of Serene (:

Getting ready to go club..

Met Jackie there

Jing and I brought the same clutch along. :)
It was coincidental.
She got it for me during my 21st and her friend gave it to her during her 21st :P

And of course, the bestie




Can you spot two drunkards here?
Had a hard time bringing the two of them home.
Sprouting nonsense and making a huge scene. -_-”


The sane one


I am not drunk either


Playing Cai Quan and drinking.
Shouldn’t have right?
The two drunkards got even more drunk -_-
How lousy!



And if you managed to guess it right, we were at Lunar.


Good day!
