[Review] Trying out the UOB Mobile Banking iPhone application
Thursday, December 29th, 2011I first heard about the UOB Mobile Banking app from the good people at UOB. I later read about it from Nanyate, JoeTeh, LesterChan and Young Upstarts. It sounded really intriguing and I was wondering about it. The app totally slipped my mind till one day, I was surfing the App Store and was looking at Top 25 Free Apps.
By the time I downloaded it, the app has reached #1. o.O
Part Three of “How he had proposed…”
Tuesday, December 27th, 2011You’ve seen part one and part two.
Here’s the video!
BFF had kindly added subtitles. Thanks dear!
Extremely surprised. Really didn’t expect this at all. Thanks everyone for coordinating and surprising me.
For those who are still wondering what happened was that the (then) boyfriend had planned with the girls to surprise me. He chose the restaurant (which I had complained that it was expensive in a BBM to him earlier. Oops) and they had plans to distract me while he would serenade me with “Marry You” by Bruno Mars. Well, only the part on “Don’t say no..” LOL
I never thought he would do something like this nor never expected that he would propose. Well, not so soon.
We talked casually about the future and I thought we would only get engaged like 2 years later? Never expected it to be soon. And while some friends did ask me if I did think if it was the right choice, yes it was. I knew he was the guy I would want to spend the rest of my life with. When you’ve met the right one, you’ll finally understand why it never did work out with anyone else…
The wedding won’t happen so soon. In fact, I’m feeling stressed just thinking about it. Something may happen in 2014 or 2015 but nothing’s concrete at this moment.
Am gonna take my time planning etc, no wanna be a bridezilla!
Thanks folks for all of the well wishes!
Merry Christmas everyone!

Part Two of “How he had proposed…”
Thursday, December 22nd, 2011Featured Advertorial: The Label Loft
Tuesday, December 20th, 2011
The kind folks at The Label Loft has sent me two lovely items. The fiance really liked this lovely pink and black dress on me.
Really liked this dress, it’s extremely comfy! I love the simple details and I think it’s a suitable dress to be worn for most occasions!
I paired the Bohemian Carousel Scallop Highwaist Shorts with a white spag and a sheer top. Comfortable and pretty much free size due to it’s elastic band. This lovely piece is suitable for everyday casual wear!

Part One of “How he had proposed…”
Thursday, December 15th, 2011Remember the previous post? Friends were asking how he proposed…
I was compiling the pictures and BFF had kindly added some subtitles into the video, so here’s the whole story! What happened was that: Fidelis and I had discussed about heading down to Lush Singapore. I wanted to buy some bathbombs for both the Staycation at Oasia Hotel and the NAPBAS.
Jio-ed both BFF and Esther along and we decided to make it a girly outing! For some reason, Fidelis suddenly proclaimed that we would be having a mystery makan session that day.
I was feeling uber nua that day and was in slackeroo wear. Didn’t even want to slap on makeup in the first place. For some reason, both Esther and BFF mentioned that they will be late. I decided to put on a bitttt of makeup that day.
Met Fidelis at Lush and we shopped away, met up with Esther, BFF mentioned she is still stuck. We grabbed a small bite, met BFF then headed off to ION for dinner.
I was still thinking to myself that the Japanese Restaurant looked quite expensive 
All this time, I was bbm-ing Ching Chong Boy. We usually tell each other where we were going. He mentioned he just reached home and I remarked that the restaurant looked pretty pricey.
We were still laughing over how they spelt Fidel’s surname as Ms Ton instead of Ms Toh. If you look closely, you’ll see a faint number 5 below which is supposed to indicate the number of people. Obviously, I didn’t notice this.
We ordered food and while waiting for the food to arrive, we did what girls usually do.
Camwhore.
We then chatted etc then suddenly BFF asked Fidel to take a picture of us. Didn’t think much about it. Actually… Fidel was taking a video!
And then…
Part two coming soon!
Review: Staycation at Oasia Hotel
Tuesday, December 13th, 2011
Usually every December, the boy and I will be traveling to Bangkok to party away but this year, we found a bit hard to get away. We then decided to go for a staycation!
We had found out about Oasia Hotel from Eevon and with the current Oasia Weekend Promotion, we thought it was quite a good deal!
Oasia Hotel is conveniently located next to Velocity. Great area, near town and there’s lots of eateries nearby.
We had booked a Club Room. We had went to the reception desk and was ushered to Level 22 instead to check in and check out. Much lesser people there, we managed to beat the queue!
Level 22 was exclusive to Club floor guests. This was where we had access to The Living Room (where drinks and light snacks were available all day).
I’ll cover more about The Living Room later.
