My dear friend, Caili, came over for dinner Friday night. People have to come one by one or the most in twos because our tiny place just cannot hold more. Haha plus i always have to prep them by saying stuff like, “oh and you’d have to sit on stools” or “the cats go chasing each other around so beware”. The disaster i predicted didn’t happen although at 7pm i was still at the supermarket when i was expecting her at 9. The horror! Was all i could say in my head when i checked the time.
What’s for dinner? I don’t know my cuts very well but thank goodness the striploin we went with turned out well. Mushroom’s on the side. Baby spinach + avocado + turkey ham + tomato salad and some pasta for carbs.
So i learnt a few things after; buy toothpicks and more dinner plates.

Hello! Ahhh, i definitely took longer than i expected, layout malfunction held things up quite abit. That aside i hope you like looking at this now!! I don’t because i’ve been staring at it for way too long. I’ve been so caught up with this, i hardly have anything else to share. Cept that i went for a haircut and it looks like this.
I’m having a friend over for dinner tonight and my fridge isn’t stocked, i don’t know what i’m cooking and i haven’t slept. A disaster waiting to happen, woe is me. I’ll be back with something come weekend! Hurray for Obama!

Camera Obscura played and i had such a good time bobbing to the music. This was what i wore – the dress is vintage and is a gift, boots are vintage via ebay.
After the show, we decided to go get autographs because they’re really sucha cute bunch of people. We were last in line and so our prerogative was to ask for a group photo with the band.
Which we got! So yay, gots to be the highlight of the night. Plus the pianist passed me their setlist they played two nights ago (in Taiwan i’m guessing?) so i’ll take a photo of that and show it in the week’s roundup. Imma gonna find a frame and frame it up! I know it’s just a rotten piece of paper but it sure felt like gold in my hands last night.
And photos were taken by my lovely friend, Caili.

This week was workworkwork quite abit, i can’t seem to remember much so i’ll skip that and tell you about POLADRIOD! It’s been going around but i was convinced to try when i saw it on Anja‘s blog. It’s the application i used to create these faux polaroids and it’s an experience in itself. Pretty amazing i have to say, but my boyfriend quickly dismissed it as easy to create – that’s the programmer in him talking. Go try it if like me, you’re unwilling to fork out money to buy film! Oh and it’s for Mac users only, as far as i know.

1. Nogoodforme’s “Beautifully Worn”
Laura Jane of nogoodforme was very nice to extend the invite to me to send in a photo of me and my most favourite item. In the photo above, you can try and spot me. Haha can you? I’m there on the top right!
The exhibition is held at Clarabella in my favourite city in the world. If you’re in the city, pop by 279 E. Houston St., it runs till the end of November. And you can see more photos of the exhibit here, and if you’d like to see my photo in a larger version, it’s here.

A spread from French Vogue, and i forget where i found the image from.
