morning!

i feel like dying because my internet is down and i'm using the extremely slow and inconvenient iphone internet tethering to stay online! :((( was unable to reply emails thus, wanted to launch tonight but i think 算了, 没办法! :( because i need to clear the 29511942 emails first! :( *spam sad smiley faces*

so. just to keep the bored readers entertained (i'm assuming there are actually still some readers left and they havent all migrated else where ;(... here's the song we performed live on radio last week, 珊瑚海 by jay chou & lara.

i need to do so many things, i don't know where to start!

oh and GUESS WHAT! the results for Face of Salon Vim 2011 is out!!!!

AND MY DARLING MODEL CLARA WON!!!!!!!!!! SO SO SO SO HAPPY FOR HER!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D YAYY!!!!! next time she will have even more chio and gorgeous hair! my other friend Evonne was one of the 3 finalists too! too bad they didnt have more than one winner! :((

(yes, that's the Lace Insert Tunic in a new color. hehe)

woohoo!!!! congratulations!!!!

i love her write-up btw, definitely +++ points for effort!

Name: Clara
Age: 22+
Occupation: Undergraduate
Style: Comfort Casual and Playful
Reason for participating: We’ve all done it. We change our hairstyles for many reasons- out of boredom, as a confident booster, keeping up with fashion trends or for some, after a heart-wrenching breakup. So, why did I sign up for this? Been naturally endowed with heavy, thick, frizzy and stiff locks, my attempts in getting them dyed, straightened and curled at various salons over the years did not pay off. This entire process is not only costly and unproductive (note: I hate wasting money), but it has resulted in damaged and dry hair. Salon Vim came into the picture through my blogger friend’s recommendation and I became even more intrigued after browsing through pictures of remarkable makeovers, gorgeous hairstyles and healthy hair textures spotted by their customers. With this, I have decided to let my adventurous side take the lead and I trust that I will be in good hands. =)

watch the results video here! and you can look at all the contest submissions on Salon Vim's facebook page too!

speaking of which, i really need to go for a haircut! :(

wanted to go today hai. see how see how.

hellooo

so the first episode of 想YY on K歌2击队 aired yesterday :S

first things first, if YZ is 27, then i should be 23! oernfgaoldegfnakewfnaw. but they put my age as 24, damn i feel OLD.

other than that, i think it's one of the episodes (of us) with the best comments from the judges so far, haha! so it's not too bad as compared to another episode which i dread to see aired on TV. erm it still feels strange to see myself on TV. and of course we all look fatter and bigger which is bad. thank goodness i didnt wear anything sleeveless..... -_-

*picture credit to debs! hehe*

lots of friends and family members told me they tuned in to Channel 8 to catch our broadcast so i'm really happy! ^_^
thank you for the tremendous support woohoo you all rock and we are simply very very lucky and blessed to be surrounded by supportive family & friends. even my daddy called from Indonesia to ask about the broadcast, he's so silly he forgot it's pre-recorded and asked "did they get in?" bwahaha!

woon managed to get her dad to help us record it too, (THANK YOU BABE) so i'm nice and uploaded the entire episode on youtube! it's actually really troublesome to convert videos and upload them -_-

ps. re-uploaded part 5!

am going out to buy my first ever keyboard now. WOOHOO very very excitessss!!!!!!!!!
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

K歌2击队 semi finals

as i mentioned,

the semi finals of K歌2击队 Power Duet was held last Wednesday, at Mediacorp!

we spent the entire Tuesday rehearsing and doing sound checks and run throughs to prepare for the long recording session on Wednesday because all 8 teams were to compete together in 2 rounds, which meant 2 episodes of recording back to back. it was really tiring! :(

so.. YES we got through to the finalssssss!!!! :D :D :D :D

but to be honest, it was our shittest performance yet :((( due to a combination of nerves and stress i guess, i don't anticipate those 2 episodes airing cos we weren't at our best at all. but we didnt make any major mistakes and managed to get through to the finals which is really exciting! hope we'll be able to pick ourselves up from the poor performance and do better for the finals. it'll be held in 2 weeks time, on the 2nd April, and we'll need all the supporters we can get!!!!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

a couple of blog readers were really sweet and came down to watch us for the quarter finals and semi finals too, thank you so much for being so supportive!! ^____^ from the bottom of my heart, i really appreciate it!! please introduce yourselves to me next time okay because i had no idea who you were! :(

Nancy took this on her iphone :D

and Min took this picture on her iphone!

fun ness.

time to 加油 for the last and final round, and it'll all be over!!! four teams will compete for the 2 top spots in round 1 & 2, while the remaining 2 teams will fight for 1st place in the last round. no regrets regardless win/lose. thank you everyone for all the support and well wishes thus far! it's really been an unforgettable experience haha. we're so blessed to have so many supportive family and friends around us! :)))))

i must say that this competition thingy has been consuming alot of my time and energy though :( i feel so bad that i've been slacking off TVD! haiiii. must buck up. we've actually got a new helper now (who also happens to be my good friend) so she's a great help. wouldn't be able to get through all the daily ops without her! and thank goodness for very accommodating and lovely customers as well.

oh oh oh and the first episode of K歌2击队 with us in it will be broadcasted on Channel 8 this coming Tuesday, 22 March at 8PM! remember to watch K歌2击队!!!! i won't even get to watch it myself. who wants to record it for me???

oh apparently the show isn't on xinmsn due to copyright issues or something, but someone uploaded an episode on youtube! no idea if the episode with us will be uploaded not :( but you can watch the 第一初赛 episode below! haha.

happy watching!

^______________________^

and credits definitely go to all our hardworking friends and supports who waited a good one and a half hours for the recording to start, and some even stayed all the way to the end, til past 1am! T__T super super 感动. i love you all so so so much for coming!

we started doing sound checks the day before, and reported at MDC at 1pm for dry run and rehearsal on the day of the recording itself,

they were recording two episodes on the same day so we only started recording our episode close to 9 (reporting time for audience was 7.30!!!!) and our poor friends waited so patiently for us! :((( 辛苦你们了! poor Karen & Joseph waited for 1.5h and had to leave before the show started :( so sorry to make you two come down all the way and wait for nothing!! :(((

special mentions go to my dearest Nicolle & Fish for their heartfelt efforts in making posters/banners for us! AWWWW! i am really very overwhelmed with gratitude and love for you all. also thank you Chongchen for being the ticketing chief and helping us to pass the tickets to all our friends/family who came down to support! Min & Collin brought down their camera and helped most of the following pictures so thank you so much you two! :) the pictures are so fab!

also the judges offered us many kind encouragement, advice and pointers. seriously 辛苦了they had to record 2 episodes back to back and sit there judging and giving comments for about 6 hours straight! 谢谢老师们!

anyway, YZ was so nervous his knees were shaking on stage lor! HAHAHA. fortunately we didnt commit any major blunders and mistakes. it's really quite nerve wracking because of the format of the show. shan't go into too much detail, watch the show to find out more!

holding room while waiting for the recording to start!


my awesome hair & makeup done by MDC's makeup/hair unit!

i used like 1 hour to remove all the make up and hair spray fully though -_- it's so tiring to reach home so late and then have to go through the hassle of removing all the
