  • Counting down, counting down.
    So here's my last entry before, "
    DANG, YOU'RE 21" and not to mention LEGAL ehehehe

    Funny thing is,

    I get real early wishes almost every year. It's good..and bad at the same time.
    Good cos i assume they're either more EXCITED than me or bad because they got the WRONG date.
    I'd prefer the former.
    I kid I kid. But it's the thought that counts :)

    I remember last year,

    *phone rings*

    "Happy Birthday, rascal!"

    *silent pause*
    I replied,
    " Wow, i appreciate that you're one month early "

    Heh heh.
    That was my cousin by the way.
    But i thought it was funny cos it wasn't her first time anyway.
     
    CUTE-ny.

    Anyway, here's what I did today,
    1. Attended boring lectures.
    andddd
    2. Bought myself a lovely dress :)

    More like convincing myself that it's alright to spend and shop away for my birthday.

  • How do you know when you're not getting any younger?

    Apart from celebrating your yearly birthday and spotting freckles, dark spots and wrinkles.

    For me,
    My short term memory span deteriorates.

    One important thing: You know you're getting older when you start receiving wedding invitations.
    or
    You celebrate your friend's engagement party.

    We celebrated Jasveen's engagement party at the country club last night.
    Congratulations Jasveen and Dev!
    We are extremely excited and happy for the both of you.
    May the two of you grow more in love each passing day :)


         

    So the girls including myself, busy getting ready for the party.





    If you have been following my updates, you'll recognize the famous saree I wore for Monash Cultural Night hehee *chuckles*

    "Don't come in a dress, come in a saree."

    and so I did.

    Here's Jasveen getting ready. We took a peek at her bridal looking Lenga :)



    and we were in charge of registration.



    My butt was sweating and aching after sitting down for hours, wearing a saree made it worse because of the extra layers of cloth.
    Malaysian timing.

    Helping out at the registration wasn't fun at all.
    We weren't sure of the guests names because all we had was a laptop and names listed on NOTEPAD.

    Plus it didn't help as names were listed according to their nicknames.

    "Vicki mama"
    "Chandran and family with 2kids"


    Archie and I struggled real bad with the names.



    And so we got bored after a while..



    and so we started camwhoring.



    Hahaha Kim looks really funny here.



    Floor plan with additional tables that Chelle drew

  • You know that feeling.

    The one you feel when you don't know what's gonna happen next, where and what you'll be after.

    Lost.

    Sigh. I feel like an old lady. Worried and frustrated about life. Why oh why.
    What is it I want?
    I don't know. There are just too many things at the moment, too early to say.

    Anyway, the new semester has just begun but we're already planning for a holiday trip woo hoo!

    Some pictures from the finals on Sunday:

    Group perfomance.
    Jlo's Let's Get Loud.



    Q&A session for group.

    Nervous-nya.

    Then came the categories session where we had to catwalk and go through the tough Q&A session.



    My question was:

    -Why do you deserve to win this award?
    - What would you do with the winnings?
    - What year was Watsons established?
    -What range of Nivea products have you used and what are the benefits?

    Before we got on stage:



    After the event:



    With mummy dearest.



    Hampers and more hampers.

    With John :)



    Will update soon.

    Good night peeps! :)

  • Short update:
    Good news.

    And i've survived yet another
    Orientation Week.
    Here are some pictures from the recent MOlympics.



    With the Science mascot: Shrek-Jeevan



    This is Sheila, the Santacilibull-claus.
    Pardon her as she had lack of sleep.



    My favourite, Bumblebee from Engineering.



    Farlina and Abe, our Arts rep.



    *



    My beloved Bash committees working hard.

    And last but not least, this is me with my SMS Results.

     
    Abe: "Rach, show me your results"
    Me: "Nah"

    ***

    And so it finally ended.

    The
    Watsons YOU Awards finale, which lasted for almost 3months. Phew.

    Special thanks to all of you who have supported me.
    Although I did not walk away with the title, the whole journey was an awesome experience.
    I've met plenty of nice people whom I will continue to keep in touch with.

    As expected, questions like why do you deserve to win? and what have you learned throughout your journey?
    not forgetting brand quizzes and product knowledge.

    *rolls eyes*

    Anyway, congratulations to all of the winners! :)
    and to those of us who did not win,
    just know that we've given our best shot and we're the best top three ever (quoted from Mea)
    OUT OF 3000 candidates hehee.

    I'll update pictures from the event soon.

    ERR HUM.

    Eleven more days, eleven more days :)



    Right now, this is what we'll need.



    Some sugary dessert.


    Ciao :)
