Hot Hot Hot Sunday

Today is the last day of February and also the last day of the Lunar New Year.  March onwards gonna be madness and stressful at work.  The peak period is coming again...all the things come together.  Well just have to breathe in breath out and do it, one thing at a time. 

Today is mad hot.  Even the water from the tap is hot.  It was really so hot that fashionably yours just don't feel like moving at all. I just want to sit still at one corner with the fan on and stoned there.  The heat is driving me crazy.  The weatherman said it is 35 degree celsius.  Hoping for some rain and breeze.  I can smell some burning smell in the air.  Hearing so many people saying that the haze is back.  Wondering how true it is, but fashionably yours did sneeze, has watery eyes and dripping nose since Friday night. All these has subsided by now.  I am allergic to dust and air pollution.  Hope the haze go away.

Just read the Sunday Times about Kids having spa massage, pedicure and manicure session.  I don't think the kids should go for all these treats.  It seems to rob them of their childhood and making them grow up faster.  Afterall the money the parents spent on these treats for their kids could have channel to some more worthy causes.  There are some kids in some countries who starves and yet the kids here are so pampered by all these treats.  I wouldn't recommend kids to do manicure, pedicure and massage, even if it is just for special occasion.  It is not appropriate and seems to be teaching them to be materialistic at such a young age.  They should be entitled to their kids world and childhood.  Afterall kids are innocent.  Parents should not expose the kids to such things at such a young age.  Just my 2 cents worth of opinion on it.

Alrighty enough said, gonna enjoy the rest of my lazy Sunday before Manic Mondaze. 

Have a great week and March 2010 ahead everyone.

Cheers :)

Pedicure, Hair Salon, Lunch, Shoppings and very leisure week

Gonna take things slow today.  It is a very hot Thirstday afternoon so fashionably yours rest and relax to chill out amidst my lush greenery surroundings. Feeling the caressing of the breeze on my soft and tender skin while I sipped my hot white tea and watching the world goes by.  I can hear the melody of the chirping birds while looking at my neighbour's swimming pool. In fact, I have early weekends this week.  Been enjoying myself since Tuesday.  Off from Tuesday to Thursday.  Here goes the updates while I am eating yogurt, burning my aromatherapy candle and having my favourite Winnie The Pooh bear by my side.  Here goes my happening updates.....

Tuesday afternoon I indulged myself for my luxury pedicure.  Had my sexy toe nails painted in a shade of pinkish red.  Loving it.

It was a very happening Wednesday.  On my way to meet bestie for lunch, fashionably yours fell down because of this man who walked behind me banged into my body at Somerset MRT station.  Both of us were lying on the floor. I couldn't get up for a while, so he helped me to get up. He keep asking me are you ok ? I'm so slim & fragile,so you think I am ok ? My body, right palm are so painful and right arm bleeds abit due to the scratches. I can remember his face, a tall caucasian man. OUCH ! crying.  I am so slim and don't have fats to cushion the fall, so painful. He must be so smitten by me that he didn't watch out where he was walking. This is so drama. I was in shocked.  One moment I was walking and the next moment I was lying on the floor. Some people just stood there and looked at the 2 of us. They thought we were filming. So cartoon.  Luckily I did not broke any bone.  I was so worried last night and began to wonder will I have any internal injury.  Crossing my fingers hoping it is just bruises and nothing serious. My palm was a bit swollen from the fall but now is ok after my bestie gave me 1st aid using ice on it to reduce the swelling. Hoping the aching will go away soon.   I was thinking if I am pregnant and this man banged into me and caused me to fall down, that would be terrible.  Now we have to be careful of the people walking around us, they can bang into us even if we are careful.  After I recovered from the shock, met up with bestie and proceed to lunch at Ichiban boshi.

We requested for a glass of ice for me to relieve my swelling palm from the fall from the staff.  It took them more than ten minutes to serve us a glass of ice.  We enjoyed our lunch though by now we are so sick of eating there  Don't think we will eat there again for quite some time.  Time to eat other food at other restaurants.  We ate and chatted happily.  Interesting and enjoyable.  Afterwhich we took a stroll down to Wisma Atria because I need to redeem some vouchers.  The weather was hot, so we tried to walk under the shade whenever possible.  Actually bestie was supposed to go together with me to the salon to do our hair, but she had another appointment, so she will do her hair next month.  Meanwhile I proceed to the salon to do my hair.  Fashionably yours had a great time at the hair salon yesterday though miss bestie company's at the salon.   Loving my new hairdo, so chic.  Will take picture and post picture soon, so stay tune to my blog.  Cut away all the bad luck (since I fell down).  Now all the good luck come to me. New hairdo for the Lunar New Year. New Year, New Look. All the good luck come to me.  I want to win tomorrow night's SGD10 million TOTO.  Everybody HUAT.

After I am done with my hair at the salon, I shopped around the mall. 

Bought  this from SaSa

A cute lipgloss

Shopped also at Watson and bought 2 packets of dried guava.  Thereafter is home sweet home.

Bascially today I just wanna rest alot since I fell down yesterday.  My auntie and uncles came to my place for CNY visiting too.  Yes we are still celebrating CNY and visitings.  It is like this when we have big families.  Was nice catching up with my uncle and aunties this morning.  Besides, fashionably yours also accomplished many tasks today. 

Last week, I passed by Nature Republic at 313 Somerset and bought some of their products to try out.  After using their toner for a week, I find their toner is not bad.  I still need more time to try out the sun balm though initial usage was so so only.  Anyone out there using Nature Republic products ? Feel free to share your experience and feedback with me.  Thanks.

OUCH ! still feel so sore and body aching now due to the fall.  Miserable feeling.  Hoping to recover soonest possible.  Tomorrow will be back to my office to clear some works, catch up and have fun with my buddies.  Afterall everyone will be on weekend mood mode.  From March onwards, gonna be madness because lots of projects in the pipelines for fashionably yours.  Will try not to think about it.  One thing at a time.  

Have a fabulous weekend everyone.  Cheers. 

Rest and Relax Life

Phew ! finally done with all the CNY visitings.  It was really a hectic week for me during the CNY week. A lot of entertainment and merry making catching up with one another.  Guess most people will be back to work this week.  Fashionably yours is glad that now my normal and tai tai lifestyle is back.  I want to rest and relax to enjoy life. 

Got to sleep now.  Nitey nitey everyone and have a fabulous week ahead.

Lion Dance Performance

Last week was a 2 day working week for fashionably yours.  Yes the CNY week, I only worked 2 days.  The rest of the week was enjoying myself and celebrating CNY.  Last Thursday was my first day reporting for work  in the Year of the Golden Tiger and my company had the lion dance performance at our office. I really enjoy watching lion dance performance.  All of us had lots of fun.  Greeted each other and bosses gave mandarin oranges to us.  Gong Xi....Gong Xi...

Pictures below are the lion dance performance. 

Some of you might have done all your CNY visitings by now.  I still have CNY visitings. Really big celebrations for my family...so many CNY visitings to do. 

Have a nice weekend everyone. 

Lovely midweek afternoon

Fashionably yours is still enjoying my long CNY weekends holidays.   Yippee ! Woke up late and had some roasted pork rice for lunch.  Well have some stomach upset too, think I over eaten the last few days.  Common to everyone who has been eating and merry making.  Hope my stomach upsets recovers soon.  Just had one pineapple tart which I cannot resist. Yummy.

Glad my Year of the Ox ended with a good note and begin my year of the golder Tiger with a good note.  Feeling sweet and blissful. 

Simply loving this lazy midweek afternoon.  Gonna take things slow today to rest and relax over a hot cup of tea amidst my lush greenery. Nice music, a good book and the caressing of the breeze on my skin. Priceless and so blissful :)) 

P.S. Going for my afternoon nap shortly......

Gong Xi Fai Cai

Gong Xi Fa Cai.  Wishing everyone a Happy and Prosperous Lunar New Year in the Year of the Golden Tiger.  How is your CNY ?  Guess must be lots of eating delicacies, pineapple tarts, goodies, bak kwa and so on and so forth with all the visitings and catching up with each other. 

Fashionably yours place was full house on the 1st day of CNY...non-stop flowing of human traffic to my place for visitings.  Thus lots of entertaining on my part.  It was tiring but fun catching up with each other over food, chocolate brownies and all the CNY goodies.  So far so good on my eating part, I controlled what I consumed.  I am still eco-friendly, eatings lots of green and fruits. 

Due to the festive seasons, I think lots of people are falling ill due to lots heaty stuff they consumed.  The clinics will be full house these few days.  Just take a look at the clinic if you walked past any.  The doctors will be laughing their way to the bank.  Take care everyone and be sure to drink some cooling herbal tea.  Fashionably yours have been drinking chrysanthemum tea. 

This is indeed a long CNY weekends and hope everyone had an enjoyable time. The next Public Holiday will be on 2nd April 2010 which is Good Friday.  Tomorrow some of you are going back to work and back to school.  However fashionably yours is still off tomorrow, so gonna take it slow and enjoy myself amidst the lush greenery to rest and relax after all the CNY celebrations.

I am looking forward to see some lion dance performances which I really like.  For now, let's enjoy the CNY celebrations.
