so convo ball came and went.


haha the amount of enthusiasm i had for it was so incredibly minimal and the only reason i was looking forward to 25th july was because of the really long weekend that i am enjoying right now (finally! i am not all moody on a sunday night! HELL YEAH!) i bought my dress in 10 mins (and kinda regretted it because it's really not the most flattering dress bloody hell), bought 4 inch heels on friday night in 5 mins and everything else like 2 hours before the actual event. that's how much i was bothered about it.

i mean, i heart nbs and all my marketing people, but unfortunately only a few of my friends were there, and that became blatantly clear when i kept taking pictures with the same old people over and over again during the event. in the end i just couldn't be arsed to even walk around and mingle.


anywho it's over and i'm irritated with myself with the amount of money i blew on this thing. i am now stuck with a dress, shoes and accessories i probably would not be wearing in the next 5 years.

on a bright note however, i've discovered that i LOVE manicures (omg OPI rocks!), i should and i will go buy fake eyelashes (oh the miracle that is fake eyelashes. no amount of dark eyeshadow you pile on can rival the wonderous effect that fake eyelashes give.) and i am now considering perming my hair. HAHA.


man jingying's hilarious. i signed in to msn and she immediately msged me in like 2 seconds with this: "i wanna see your eye candyyy!!!!!!"

alright alright. the pictures are here. im not saying anything. you all can guess which one it is. it may be obvious. it may be not. i don't know. hahahaha.




i met peisee early afternoon for the last minute shopping of accessories and for hair+makeup

our hair+makeup artist. i personally think she's awesome. if you think we look good then you can consider giving her a call. hahaha.

you can't see my hair, but it's basically a low ponytail with curls and on hindsight i really should have just requested for curls and nothing else. but she was so enthusiastic about doing something more complicated i felt bad to make her redo the whole thing. DAMN. IT.

something like this.

HOW? PERM/DONT PERM? appreciate opinions.

i love my eye makeup!!!

sorry about the hugeass eye pictures though.

we were done way too early so went had dessert @ shokudo raffles city. and we hung around the lobby of swissotel bitching about what other people were wearing. HAHA.

this was completely unintentional but turned out nice anyway!

the reception area. we were served soft drinks. i was completely annoyed by the lack of alcohol.

there was a tarot card reading! i can't take it too seriously but dude's pretty accurate. HE SAID I HAVE UNREALISTIC (okay, he actually said very high. but i'll interpret it the way i feel) EXPECTATIONS ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS AND AM AGGRESSIVE. hahaha. alright. kudos for pinpointing facts but i'd actually like to know more about the future yes?


stephanie!

sarah!

linxi!

xinwei + weiwei!

xinwei + michael!

vic!

(haha. i am trying not to give commentary to pictures so it's not obvious as to which one is actually my eye candy)

marketing! :)


inside the ballroom


and then i don't have much praises for the entire event. the food was terrible for the amount we paid. the band was *facepalm* (SO MUCH second-hand embarrassment) the emcee was grating and obnoxious to say the least (although he did became really funny towards the end, not gonna lie)

more pictures

kelvin!

guoxiang!

jieying and mic!

cheeyu!

jinyuan!

shiling!

all of us marketing peeps! :)

convocation itself is in another.. 7 hours.
i wish i cared more about it, because right now i don't give a damn. maybe i've been working far too long to feel that this actually signifies an end to my studying life. (also, i haven't been actually studying for loooooong time. my last paper was in november last year)


ah well. i am looking forward to seeing the marketing people again though! and going back to nbs one last time.



(hahahha. i just looked through the pictures once more and i realised that erm. three out of my four eye candies over the years in nbs are actually in them. HAHAHA.)
