Back to Singapore

                                
My cousin's wedding was a blast!!!! Tied so many balloons.. My hands ache just at the mention of balloons omg it's no joke.

Woke up at 5 to do my make up and go to the bride's house to help with the stuff. It was a very interesting experience hahaha the things the groom had to do to finally get to her door... Changed outfit for the dinner at night.

I did a ton of shopping at KL. Like brand new wardrobe for work.. My aunts and uncles are very generous hahaha

so tired *__*

Pre trip rush

Spent a good half hour scrolling through a small fraction of the thousands of stickers and shortlisted those I would like to get. Will do some elimination and probably get 2 of them ^_^ edit: I got 3-- doggie, rabbit and bird XD

Wrapped up my cousins' gift (necklaces), they look so sweet :)) I'll be going msia this Sunday and making a shopping trip to KL too!!! Super excited because I've not been there since almost 10 years ago?? Shopping time!!!!! Wahaha actually mum's colleagues kept bringing their unwanted clothes for me to try on so I kinda have a nice pile already ahahaha 

Starting work really soon.. I had planned to start next year, given the way the interviews were going but this is a nice turn of events I guess. There was a written test which over the phone the person said no preparation needed. So I assumed it would be similar to the one from the previous interview, regarding what I hope to get from my career. Imagine when all 3 questions were industry related XD fortunately I did my reading up on the website the day before. 

I had to withdraw from a saxophone gig, makes me wonder when the next time I play the saxophone will be :( No more freedom on weekdays, no more afternoon naps. But money 8D and learning new things 8D

^____^

Trimmed Rin's wig and I love it so much! I hope this also means I'm getting better at dealing with wigs in general
Next year my plans are going to be full of her so I'm glad the wig's looking good woohoo! I'm like the resident Rin of all the Love Live groups I'm in XD 

Obligatory shot of the phone. Need to convert my SIM card before I can start using. Abit worried about the data transfer though.. Very noob when it comes to all these.

Went to celebrate leader sama's birthday with the group and was so surprised when the cake included our names as well XD The cutest birthday cake I've seen!!! Biased cos there's a hand drawn chibi of me of course XDXD

Birthday

I had a good birthday ^__^ so happy to read and reply the birthday wishes. XD Received my first figurines ever from the bf and they're lovely~ 

Especially Kurapika, he's exquisite *__*

My iphone6 arrived today guys!! A gift from my 小舅 cos I was supposed to order the 6+ for him and he made a gift of the 6 to me for the trouble. Unfortunately many things happened and now he's just pre-ordering in malaysia himself. I still get the phone though XD -thick skin- It actually got delivered yesterday but I was out to buy dinner ahaha 

Had a saxophone gig (2 x 20mins) on thursday and it was badddddd. I felt so mistreated. Dinner was supposed to be dabaoed by the hirers and we had 1+ hour in between our performances to eat. But the lady, after repeated pestering, told us that they had planed for us to sit at the table and have the food served together with the guests. We checked the menu and found out that dinner would be served at 815pm, 5 minutes before our next 20 min performance. Please, we're not being paid by the hour and it's not early either, I'm not going to stay back after the performance just to eat the last 2 courses of the dinner. And that's provided things don't drag (which they did -_-) I got home after 10 with aching arms and feeling super annoyed and hungry.

The snow halation costume is here! Our group has been diligently practising the dance and we'll be filming the video and doing a photoshoot soon. 
The jacket is sadly too big and I need to do some pinning. Wig is untrimmed also :( aish Was hoping that it'll come nicely trimmed. 

Went for another cosplay job at gardens by the bay on saturday then J and I rushed off immediately to JB for an event. My first overseas event!! It's a huge pity the bf couldn't join in due to some family matters. JB really has a different feel from singapore, so many run down places for shoots!! 

Photo by Maze, please don't re-upload without my permission! The sky got dark really quickly and we had, for dinner, awesome mexican european food at the mall near the customs. It's really fantastic eating in malaysia, can order so much and not go broke.

I was stuck at the malaysia customs really long both ways and when I was returning to singapore, they did a bag 'xray' scan thingy where as expected, my gun was noticed and underwent closer inspections. 

Hahaha I'm glad they didn't make a huge fuss over it like "OMG why is there this gun in her bag, SEARCH HER" XD The lady just very calmly pointed at my bag and I took out the gun (whose nozzle broke and was hanging off in a really sad manner) to show the guy. He politely asked me to wait and called for another guy to come take a look. The second guy glanced briefly at the gun while I explained that it was a prop and made up of plastic and foam. Then he waved us ahead. Really chill.

Sunday I helped out for a shoot where the bf did this bald old man with a mustache. Kept laughing while doing his make up hahahahaha

This morning I went for another interview and things look good! -_- My mum isn't happy when I told her the job description. She's getting irritating nowadays when she keeps telling me to take up a lab job. Hello you think your daughter life science very smart, can do research arh, and I dread the lab environment now, just thinking about bacterial cultures make me very sian.

Sometimes I look back on the past few months since graduation and feel very thankful that I'm able to pick up my saxophone again. And even be making money from both my hobbies :') It's not sustainable in the long term but I think it's been an amazing few months and I'm so happy and proud.
