Katie is a genius. (: Her Valentine's day pictures are lovely, creative and not at all tacky shots. I love her work so much!

Yesterday is actually my birthday too but it really didn't feel like my birthday. :D

I'll post my pictures and review of the restaurant my best friend and I went to for my early birthday celebration ASAP! (:

Second day of Christmas - Boxing day!

:D Happy boxing day everyone! Enjoy opening your huge piles of presents. :D

To keep the Christmas spirit going (yes my friends, Christmas s not over yet!!!! It just began!), here are some Christmas pictures. (:

I know this year's Christmas was totally special to me and was the best I had so far because I had:

1) my very first gift exchange and got a memory card reader.

2) a Christmas party with my maternal side of extended family.

3) the best working pre-Christmas fun with this year's full timers and new part timers.

4) met up with my friends whom I haven't seen in ages.

5) got to do whatever I enjoy doing thus getting a very much needed break and time of replenishing.

6) felt what Christmas is really and truly like: a time of joyous celebration with loved ones and to be selfless and generous in giving.

7) I got to share this Christmas love with whoever that stumbles upon this blog.

8) been reminded to be thankful that I could celebrate Christmas and in such a wonderful way with people I loved.

9) been reminded that there are those who are unfortunate or lost loved ones and are unable or simply don't find joy in celebrating Christmas.

10) a conclusion that Christmas is indeed my favourite festival. (:

Hope that this year is the BEST Christmas you ever had!!

Christmas is here!

Merry Christmas everyone! (:

Have a great joyous time of celebration with your loved ones. (:

Shop List for Christmas!

It's not snowing (it's raining) in Singapore but at least it is snowing in my blog. (:

Despite the rain, Singapore is always the prettiest and most picturesque in December. The colour of the sky when the sun is completely out. Even when it is raining, it's so lovely.

Maybe it is just because Christmas is coming. :D

In the spirit of Christmas, I decided to do a list of place you can get your presents from. Places that are more or less one stop for all.

1) Egg3

- 33 Erskine Road, #01-10/11/12, Singapore 089333

- HQ, 260 Joo Chiat Road, Singapore 427514

When I walked in to the branch in The Cathay, ground floor, I love the interior of the place. It was a place of fashion and designs. They have vases, clothes hangers, shoes, clothes, sunglasses, bags, watches and tons more.

GADGET. CLOCKS. DECALS. ACCESSORIES. HOMEWARE. OFFICE. COLLECTIBLES. BAGS

These are what you can find in this little lovely place. I'm a sucker for the bags they have there. Oh and their clocks!! They have the coolest clock ever (not reflected in their website though). I got a feeling that the things there are updated all the time and there are many many one-of-a-kind piece, which is great for individualists. :D

4) IKEA

We all know IKEA. It is one of the most awesome place to be at any time, especially during festive seasons. The ambiance is just so delightful and lively there. The buzz and the beautiful simple yet elegant and most importantly CHEAP everyday items.

They have just about every household item and honestly, if you don't like what they have, you can buy materials from there and make you own.

5) Wood Would

- Unit 03-24, Mandarin gallery 333A, Orchard Road

- Unit 03-03, The Cathay, Two Handy Road

Photos taken from the official website

Another great place. Everytime I walk in there, I never ever get out there until I have explored EVERY item in there. They are just so pretty, just so so gorgeous!! The papers, designs, toys and the interior designs. Goodness. There is no way a stationary, book-lover would not like this place.

These are pretty well known shops but still worth introducing.

I am finally posting something related to Christmas! :D I still really want to take photos of the Christmas lighting this year. I will! I have too!!! I'll definitely post it when I am done. (:

What you can look forward to for the time being is my post on the lovely places one can go to for designers' furnitures. Design lovers will go crazy seeing all these exquisite and bewitching furnitures.
