RANT SESSION

2012-01-27T14:00:00.001-05:00

Do you know what i hate most in this world? (besides worms, onions and a bunch of other things) FINISHING OTHER PEOPLE'S PROJECTS!!! why? well first of all, i have to postpone my own work schedule to accommodate this new random project thrown my way. I HATE when things don't go according to how i planned and last minute surprises. everything i do has an orderly manner, hence that is why i have my schedule. second, i'm a bit of a perfectionist (ok, make that a lot) when it comes to the things i present. everything has to be PERFECT, no less. for those who use Adobe Illustrator, you know those smart guides everyone hate? well i LOVE them and swear by them. i can't stand when the presentation is messy or not aligned properly. anchor points MUST BE MATCHING not almost matching and curves should be nice and smooth. everybody works differently and this is how i work. so whenever i see things that in my eye, not good enough, i will make changes and sometimes i end up re-doing everything, i can't help it. i think i have ocd when it comes to this. not only the things on the presentation page is important, but also how everything else is organized in files and folders. geez, it's not very hard to name your stuff properly or classify documents, i don't understand how people can just shove everything in one single folder and name it whatever they feel like.

these gifs totally capture my current feelings

to end things nicely,

OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG BB IS BACKKKKKKKKKKK

All the Good Stuff

2012-01-23T10:41:00.001-05:00

you know what i realized? that i'm really good at browsing through end of season sales...or i'm just plain lucky. =D look at these cool buys, all under retail. hehe

how perfect is this sling bag that transforms into an oversize clutch? and it fit with my yellow post too!

i think i'm going through a tassell phase. sorry.

side note: I LOVE RAGLAN SLEEVES

loving this cardigan to death <3 oversized...leopard...perfect.

mini chanel haul! yay ^V^

finally got around to buying this curler. i didn't even know it was released here already but i saw it and i couldn't hold back. my fave has always been the shu, but honestly speaking, this thing is kinda kicking my old one's butt. I LOVE THISSSSSSSSSSS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCHHHHHHHH

since i was at the chanel counter already, might as well stock up on my poudre universelle compacte. the SA told me it was sold out so she suggested me to try the loose powder version instead. at first i had a hard time and spilled everywhere, but i'm trying to get used to it and i really like it! goes on light and sheer and my skin is baby soft. ^^ i use this at home and just bring my compact on the go.

hard to resist when they look so gorgeous! ended up buying this lippie as well.

Aveeno Fresh Essentials Review

2012-01-21T21:37:00.000-05:00

Product: Aveeno Fresh Essentials Nourishing Moisturizer

Retail: under 20$ (got it for 17.99$ at walmart)

contains SPF30, vitamin A, C & E

oil-free, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic

this moisturizer comes in a pump which i prefer over tubes and jars just because of its convenience. you dont need to squeeze it dry or poke your finger in a jar and get cream under your nails (major EWW). over the years, i've used a bunch of products for my skin and i can say that the quality of this moisturizer is almost up to par with those more expensive ones. after using it for a few weeks, i've noticed some difference in my skin and its texture. living in Canada, my skin often gets exposed to extreme climates. i get -25C outside but walk in an office or house where heaters are at full capacities, the difference is enormous and pollution isn't helping either. i used to be happy with my vitamin e gel, but it just wasnt enough for winter. i would get super dry areas on my face, but my T zone would still be oily. i was confused and just didn't know what to do anymore. when my daily moisturizer ran out, i happened to be at walmart and was browsing for a quick solution in the skincare department. i looked through a few but noticed this one had a "new" sticker on the shelf and it was on sale too. i bought it without thinking too much about it. i used it next morning and was just amazed! the color is matte white and it kinda looks like whipped cream. when i pumped it on my hand for the first time, i thought it would be super heavy but was blown away when i spread it on my skin. it was super light and absorbed into my skin in seconds. my mistake was i miscalculated and pumped a few times too much only to realize i didn't need that much to cover my face.

this product gets a A+++++ from me. i would definitely buy again to help me get through my winter.

PAUL & JOE Beaute

2012-01-13T13:55:00.000-05:00

i have to come clean, the only felines i like are predators such as tigers, lions and leopards...smaller ones include Hello Kitty and Chococat..oh and kittens. Other than that...i truly, deeply, madly dislike (full grown, adult) cats. they scare the crap out of me. i feel like they are always about to attack me and shred me to pieces or something. Ironic that i'm not scared of the bigger ones right? well they can't get to me so... :) anyways, for someone who doesn't like cats, i find this Paul & Joe collection to be oddly lovely.

when it's ugly, cold, grey and gloomy out or when my mood isn't at it's peak...all i need is a hug from the hubs or something sweet..sweet as in cupcake & macaron kinda sweet.

when exhaustion takes over or the bed wants to claim me, i automatically pick a strand and start twisting and twirling until my eyelids can't take it anymore. the softness of my hair gliding through my fingers ...I LOVE THAT. my mother told me it's been a habit ever since i was able to grab my hair lol. usually when girls start twirling their hair, they're trying to look cute or trying to get attention. when i do that, dont think too much about it and just throw me a pillow please.

when i'm down but need to go out, i tend to cover my face a lot. it's like i dont want the world so see my poker face or something. i'm not good at hiding my emotions so i'd just rather hide everything under glasses and hats than make others misunderstand.

yes i am human, i also get those days where idgaf.

on a lighter note, IT'S THE WEEKENDDDDD!!! xox

Chanel greeting card to start the New Year! Weeeeee ^3^

(the color and texture is exactly like my wedding invite. a pearlescent offwhite.)

it's hard to be fancy schmancy when it's freaking freezing outsite. this is basically what i'll wear for the whole winter. leggings/sweatshirt(or sweater)/Aussie Luxe boots/Moncler Bady/scarf or muffler of some sort.

i took the pic and showed him, and THEN i added the heart and all these fobby things on it. lol

Bom team t-shirt/H&M (American) flag leggings.

have you ever seen a cuter Yorkie??? i don't think so! All hail Prince Tatchuuuuuuu!!

oh yah, i really needed to show you guys. while i got the Collage Wings, my sister Amy received the Satin Wings. How cool are they??? so gorgeous!!!

since we didn't go away for vacation, it was hard to avoid the shops. went back on the 28th. we didn't leave emty-handed.

BCBG light motorcycle jacket. yeah i know, i'm so bad with jackets. i really couldn't help it, it was a good deal and it fits me like a glove!

Hubs bought me this BCBG printed shirt. it might look like nothing hanging like this, but when worn, it's a completely different world.

I also wanted a pair of leopard print shorts. i tried them in my usual size 2 and to my surprise, they were way too big on. that's weird because i have always been the same size in BCBG and suddenly, i dont fit anymore. They only had that and a size 8 left. The SA proposed for me to wear a belt with it. Thinking about the pleats the belt might create, i didn't get them. i was really bummed, the shorts were gorgeous.

ending the post with a cute picture of the Hubs sleeping like a kid. HOW CUTEEE!!! ^ , ^

hollaaaa~

THANK YOU SANTA, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!

don't judge me for loving this.

living in Canada, you can NEVER have too many sweaters.

one of the many shoes i've lusted over. Santa has good taste!!!

i dare you to mess with me while i have these on!

AND UHHHH........................

SANTA EITHER READ MY MIND OR HE READ MY BLOG!!!

because.....


OMFGAAAAAAAAWWWWDDDDD JSx2NE1 COLLAGE WINGS!!!


don't give me that look! i don't even care if you hate them!!!

ahemm...here are some pix of when i opened the pressies

(yah i know i look like a ball of excitement):

i cried when i saw these.

and weeped even more when i saw these.

urghh how gorgeous. iloveyousantamamadada.

And what comes right after Christmas? why BOXING DAY of course!!! after a 30 minutes line up in the cold outside Holts, we were finally let in at 1pm sharp. me and Amy just went straight to the last floor to check out the shoes. i was lucky to find these Miu Miu suede slingbacks in my size. i spotted them during the first markdown, but it still wasn't good enough for me since i didn't exactly 'need' them. Today was my lucky day!!! i got them even less than half of it's original price!!! well, merry belated xmas to me! yay!!!

Slingback and peeptoe? yes!

these are high but extremely comfy thanks to the platform.

these are closer to the color in real life. a kind of vintage rose with a touch of berry. urgh gorge!!


before dinner, i dropped by C&C to pick up some bbcreams and skinfood face scrubs. they had a buy 1 get 2nd half off deal. (ongoing until the 8th)

bye bye lovelies! xox ^^v

Anyone else got nice presents or did you find anything at Boxing Day?

Boy Meets Girl

2011-12-20T10:03:00.002-05:00

there are days i look like this...

finished with hair tucked in and all. i wonder if people walking behind me think i'm a boy or not.

some (VERY rare, especially in winter) other time, i look like this.

[the xmas party i went to had a white theme. we had to somehow incorporate that into our outfits. it gave me a headache because there was no way in hell i was gonna wear a white dress. NO WAY. found my way around it hehe i wore this Club Monaco tuxedo jacket i bought a long time ago but never touched. it still had the tags and all lol]

you guys must be tired of seeing the same same makeup on me. this is the same-ish makeup i have during the day except darker. lol i dont know another way to do my makeup!!! if i try to be "daring" one day, i'll try something new, but it always end up looking weird on me so i remove it LIVE. T_______T" ohhh but this time i spiced it up with some lipstick muahaha, thats new and different right? *le sigh*

I like this jacket. it would be considered a cropped jacket for other girls, but on me, it falls on all the right places.

at first, i panicked because i thought i didn't own anything in white..so i went to Simons and bought this feather hair clip. then i "found" my tuxedo jacket but still ended up wearing the clip anyways. it gave a nice feminine touch i think.

"ladylike"

OFF TOPIC but,

OMFG did you see??? [the tree is like 8' tall]

according to my little sister, this xmas is going to be one of the bestest xmas evarr. like...can it be tomorrow please? for now, i'm not even allowed to TOUCH my presents. wth is this rule??? not like i was gonna shake it to try and figure out what i got. (wait a minute, lmao yes i was hahahaha)

anywho...bai guys! xox

Wrapped Up

2011-12-14T10:26:00.001-05:00

Men in scarves = Automatic Swag. If it goes around more than twice, it's perfect. Be it wool, cashmere, silk, cotton, printed or solid you'll always look good with it no matter what. So, stop being a wimp and wrap yourself up! No it is not girly and people won't call you 'gay' if you wear one. You'll be warm and sickless and your ladies will thank you.

XMAS WISHLIST

2011-12-13T18:02:00.001-05:00

I've been asked to make a wishlist, but urghhh no one ever takes it seriously? WTH why askkkk. well i had fun making one anyways. And since i made one, might as well post it right?

here's what's on it (no particular order, but my MOST WANTED item is the JScott2NE1wings!!!!!):
-Marc by Marc Jacobs Wild Hearts iPhone case
-Marc by Marc Jacobs Jungle iPhone case
-Prada Saffiano zippered wallet in Peony
-Adidas by Jeremy Scott Wings hoodie
-2NE1 Nolza dvd
-Adidas by Jeremy Scott x 2NE1 Wings sneaks

oh and the wings hoodie that i never really got over. *sadface* we were supposed to go to Boston and b said he'd get me the Chrome Hearts one at Riccardi's, but we ended up not goingggg huhuhuhuhuh and it really doesn't help that Bom sports it so well. urghhh love her, love the hoodieeee....

'Tis the season

2011-12-08T12:18:00.004-05:00

December is here! We set our xmas tree up right after my birthday teehee. i even wanted to get a tree before that, but it just didn't feel right. How do you find it? Hubs was putting the hooks on the ornaments and i put it on the tree. it was just the 2 of us and our xmas tree. <3 [at first he didnt even wanna buy one, i convinced him we absolutely needed one and once the tree was all dolled up, he couldnt help but just stare at it. lol]

lights and hearts and glitters, all the things i like!

*proud*

seeing him smile like this next to the tree, it's hard to believe he didn't want one at first. lol

M21 surprised him with a birthday cake this year! but i get the credit of choosing the flavor lol. RED VELVET CAKEEEE i think i might've enjoyed this cake more than him hahaha

i have to admit that i had a really hard time this year with his birthday present. he has everything!!! x__x" what do you get a person who has tons of clothes, shoes, jewelry, watches...i went with the safe choice, more clothes (need to take a pic of his walk-in closet some day, he has the entire master bedroom's walk-in to himself and he's gonna run out of space soon wth). lmao i bought him another another Moncler puffer in black shiny to match with me and this DSquared sweatshirt above. He doesn't need a winter jacket, but he said he had planned to buy a red Goose and i was a bit against that because i dont think it fits his style. idk...so thats why i got him the Moncler instead. And he's been eyeing this sweatshirt ever since it came out but never got around to buying it so there ya go.

while shopping for his bday gift, i bought myself an early xmas pressie!!! pretty ballerinas! ^^ they're so lovely i can't wait to wear them.

ending this post with an emo selca.
Hollaaaa~

2011-12-06T15:35:00.007-05:00

my man upped his game and surprised me this year! (i totally wrote a novel explaining how the surprise went about but urghhhh it was getting out of hand. i think pictures will be good enough lol)

i had a hard time thinking straight before settling for the one bag that was constantly on my wishlist. if i hadn't chosen this bag on that day, i knew i would eventually get it anyways. Thank you b for this wonderful bday gift! i love it so much. xox

by now you should be able to tell which bag it is. hehe

presenting Miss Damier Alma :)

she's beautiful and personalized too! ^3^

Random:

that day, i also got this cute wolf sweater!

it's so freaking adorable and its studded.

my cutie nephew Jayden!!! how cute is he and look how he's all grown up now (2Y). he doesn't really talk yet but when i walk in, he stops whatever he's doing and runs towards me all happy and yells "tataaaa" (auntie in french). My inlaws told me that whenever he sees a pretty on TV, he points at her and says "tata" too lol. i guess he likes me lots. hehehe my sis-in-law said that at least all the presents i've given him have finally paid off. lmao i feel like i'm bribing his love.

a queenie blog post wouldn't be complete without a queenie selca right?

weekend outfit. in the winter time, dressing down > dressing up.
EDIT outfit: Moncler Bady / Wildfox sweatshirt / Zara shorts / Holt Renfrew MK 'Wild at Heart' leopard scarf / MBMJ Memphis bag / Australia Luxe Abbey booties.

'nough for today. buhbyeeeee xox

p.s. i had the choice between the Alma or a pair of Nude Biancas, did u find i made a good choice? i didnt get the shoes because 1) i wont be able to wear it until next summer. 2) i was planning on getting myself a pair in the spring anyways. :D

p.p.s dear anon, the bag my sister gave me is the Marc by Marc Jacobs 'Memphis' in shadow grey or you can get the more funky colorblocked one here.

Sunday, 11.20.11

This time of the year is often headache blitz for our close ones. haha double birthday, double thinking for gifts, double everythinggg. HAPPY BDAY to my little sister Amy!!! ^^

A year has gone by so quickly, it's unbelievable. This time last year, i was having my engagement photoshoot, preparing for my wedding and just running all over the place. Now that the big event is over, i can fully focus on life and it's little surprises again. i thought we'd have our cake on Monday (which was the real date for our birthday), so i didn't expect anything on Sunday night. we were doing our things and cleaning up the restaurant and at some point, i was about to go to the bathroom when i heard people singing Happy Birthday. lol i basically forgot i needed to go and just ran out like a crazy person. (please see excitement displayed in the picture above) her present to me!!! is it gorgeous or what!!!??? i'm so in love with this bag!! she knew i've wanted a satchel for a long long time.

11.18.11

honestly speaking, i didnt wanna do anything for my birthday this year. i dont know what happened, blame it on age. we opted for a quiet dinner at L'Appartement, who turned out to be not so quiet after all. we were seated under a speaker box v____v" and had to practically scream for the others to hear us. it's all good, food was good and friends were there so.. :)

b looks a little lost

as the title states, this is really just a mashup of random pictures found on my phone. =D don't expect too much from it, you might be disappointed hehe.

i honestly only wanted to post the picture above because it says over the TOP. lol i dont know why i get so excited when i see that word. so sorry, i lied, i totally know why i get all worked up hahaha. (see how random? at least i warned you)

in the back you can see a part of my ikea closet system. i have 2 of those and planned on getting a bookshelf in between for my bags. =D and yup thats the over the TOP mirror. i wanted a huge full length one, but i have a sliding door..so it kinda takes up the wall space next to the doorway. kennot put mirror there. =|

hullo ^_^v

i am so in love with my vanity table/area. urghh so gorgeous i can just sit here and look at this picture all day long. hehe

teehee, lookie my shelf in the back!! =D i'm so happy!! all ikea stuff in my walk-in room.

my little sister got me this curler when we were at Winners last week. i went home and a few days later, i tried it and LOVED it!!! i told her to get herself one as well, so we went back today. i just realized that it had a suggested retail price at 249.95$ and the price at Winners was 34.95$. so yeah..if you see this, grab it. works fab and its darn cheap compared to the original price. or you could be baller and get it from their site for 149.95$.

i haven't posted a picture of Tatsu in a long long long long time. so here he is, as cute as ever. healthy and heavier than he should be. blame it on my dad for overfeeding him. v__v"

i dont know if anyone remembers my VERY angry tweet when i lost these Club Monaco dominatrix shorty gloves? well, guess what...i found them...a year later. T_____T" i bet these things only happen to me. who in the world loses something for a complete YEAR??? sometimes, i truly question myself.

look at this cutie!!! we were at the Sephora store in Laval and stumbled on this cute palette that was on sale for 25 bucks (was originally 64)!! =D also a little gift from Amy.

too cute to use.

the only picture of my halloween outfit. :| can you guess what i was dressed as? T__T"

JeremyScott X 2NE1

2011-10-20T08:42:00.001-04:00

Jeremy Scott might have fallen in love with 2NE1! Scott's Adidas line will include these collab shoes. They will be available this coming november at select Adidas Originals stores worldwide. One more proof that the girls have clearly made it!! ^o^

the shoes are of an interesting mix of color blocking and faux pony hair. Very 2NE1 looking but very not wearable for average people like me and you. lol

all satin wings which will be released right after.

Twins

2011-10-17T13:43:00.008-04:00

The title made you confused yeah? you thought i was talking about something else didn't you?! Pervv!! jk jk...lol

As a long time fan of Mackage, i almost gagged when i found their long lost twins at the "House" of Rudsak. i guess bad habits are hard to get rid of. *cough* M0851 *cough* maybe i'm being too hard or plain bitter...or maybe they should just change designers.

what do you think?

the sweat pant (or anything that bears the same look) isn't as sloppy as we would imagine. Yeah i know what you're thinking, hollywood celebs with greasy hair out to grab some Starbucks or grocery shopping with their kids in tow. If well paired, the sweat can look pretty awesome too! check out the outfits below to get some ideas how to werkkk it!

i would so love to say that this picture is a tease for you guys, but in fact, it was also a tease for me!!! Out of my whole wedding, this single picture was posted up on One-Blink's blog. dot. dot. dot...WTH SUCH A TEASE, WAE NOT POST MORE THAN THIS PIC??? they probably want me to die from anticipation or something. thats all cool, as long as the pix come out good...yeah?

they also did a short videoclip of my wedding, but i'm holding on to that until i post pix from our cameras. i think a video reveals way much, so that's why i'm gonna post it at the end. for those who have seen it already (fb), boohoooo you're no fun! lol

ok ily, see ya soon! xox

p.s. i'll be living in the ice age for another half month because stupid internet/cable company can't come earlier. thank god for 3G.

p.p.s. married life is freaking weird. lol blissful but weird. i guess it takes time to get used to. for now i'm still an apprentice wifuh. so much to learn, i feel like i've been suddenly thrown into adulthood. should i start a sub category to my blog named "LWL" (Living with the LAMs)? there are already 2 major fails i could write about...

OFF THE MARKET

2011-09-14T12:45:00.005-04:00

IX.X.XI

so i guess we're now officially off the meat market. ;)

i just wanted to drop a few lines to update you all. September 10th was our wedding day (in case some of you missed my constant spazzing and gushing about that day). it was such a beautiful day with perfect weather. the planning and the stressing really paid off, i felt like i was in a fairytale. i guess we can now say: "And they lived happily ever after..." lol so corny! i'll post pix we took and official pix from One-Blink when i get them.

we're still moving things into our new condo, i'll also post some pictures when everything is settled. other than that, we're going to be away for a week on our honeymoon and when we get back, it's gonna be our housewarming partay. so there wont be any updates soon. =( so sorry.

i hope all of you are well, you can drop me a line whenever...on here or twitter. =D
i'll see you soon, guys!!

Queenie xox

p.s. picture credit goes to: Tomo! thank you, boy!!

L'Enfant Terrible

2011-08-25T00:59:00.001-04:00

i went to a private viewing of JPG's exhibition at MBAM .I honestly didn't expect much because the YSL left me sour last time. it was just clothes on mannequins and nothing more. It was so boring that it made the clothes look bleh too.

THIS WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD AWESOME!!! its really worth it, you wont feel like you wasted your precious time!!! the concept was entertaining because the mannequin's faces were animated, they were projected on. wth right? oh...and they TALKED and sang. T___T" (the singing ones scared the hell out of me though). Monsieur Gaultier('s mannequin)

my fave JPG look will always be the nautical look.

this dress is really amazing, it looked like leo skin, but when you get near, it's actually beaded. i remember it took 1600 hours to make.

well, Mr.Gaultier really lives up to his L'Enfant Terrible nickname.

anyhow...all this to say that it was a great exhibition and you should see it. I loved it so much i bought the book. =D

BJ - VIP

2011-08-16T19:39:00.000-04:00

OMG i don't know what happened, this post was lost in my drafts for so long...about time to post it!!!

ok so a few months back (April), i registered to be part of the official 2NE1 fanclub. i waited and waited and nothing came. One fine Sunday, i woke up and out of the blues, i see this box next to me on my bed. I was surprised because i didnt know what the box contained so i opened it SUPAH slowly. to my surprise it was my 2NE1 fan pack!!! OMFG the box was already opened and i just remembered someone rang the bell on friday night but i was home alone and was too scared to open so i guess they just left this out the front door. And since i always use the car, i always go out by the garage door!!! so my parents probably picked this box up when they got home. The mailman left it at the wrong address. i ALMOST didnt get my fanpack!! T___T"

first thing i saw: this paper saying YG on it. was just too giddy =D

MY FRREAKING LIGHTSTICK!! yknow..in case i get to go to their concerts. lol

and yaknow what? THERE'S EVEN MY NAME ON IT!! =D

gorgeous girls! ^^

BJ card

and holder

lightstick in action! TEEHEE!! =D

this summer, i also ordered a BB photoset. I knew some of them were signed, but i never thought that out of thousands and thousands of fans, i'd be one of the few who got a signed photo!! actually they signed 100 in total, but they're 5 members, so that means each members signed 20 only and i got ONE!! heheh

this was the pic i put in the frame at first.

but then, i tweeted about having this and wanting to do an exchange for TOP's autographed pic! A VIP from Australia tweeted me saying she has TOP and she's willing to switch with me because she's IN LOVE with daesung...

a week later, this was in my hands. ^^

now proudly sitting on my shelf and we lived happily ever after. =D
the end. lol

Me & Team Cray

2011-07-27T00:27:00.005-04:00

i dont often post pix of me without makeup, so look at this as much as you want because i wont post another one anytime soon! hehehe i know i'm cheating with circle lens and its a profile view...but i just wanted to show my skin the morning after my weekly MBD mask session. =D

played with my nephew Jayden before heading out. this little guy grows so fast, he's almost 2 now. do you guys remember his newborn pic? omg when i compare, he looks nothing like his younger self. he's so cute and can't stop kissing me whenever i'm around. it's hard to take a pic of him now because he's just all over the place and can't stop moving. this is the best i could do.

we were desperately looking for a coffee table that day...we just walked in and out of so many furniture stores but still didn't find any that fit our taste and budget. T____T" still on the hunt! saw this full length mirror and thought i'd take a pic for OOTD. =] CM tunic (worn as a dress), French Connection black cami dress under, silver havaianas.

---------------------------------------

i find it so awesome how people can meet and connect through social media. Because we share the same interest (BB), me, CS and DT started tweeting almost every day. We started spazzing at a specific time, but as our relationship became more "serious" (lmao), our schedule became...non existant. Now, we spazz and talk about the most random stuff you could ever think of at any time of the day, even with our timezone diff. We used to be team cray but recently changed our crew name...ahemm...

Since CS lives in the same city as me, we already met a first time. When she came back from Cali, she brought me a Minnie Mouse stuffed toy =D This time, she said she ordered BB socks and bought an extra set for me!! ^^ We finally met a second time and got to talk a little more. Poor bf, who was just walking and listening to us blab about BB. lol took this pic before we went separate ways!! wish i could meet maknae too but she lives in Cali so...we'll meet in 2012 ;)

my freaking cute BigBang socks =D thank you agashiii ily

i bought these cute earrings at Aldo Acc and gave her a pair ^^v

---------------------------------------

this pic makes me wanna go on vacay so bad!!!

that night, we went to eat at one of our fave terrasse in the old port.

i didnt buy anything at the sidewalk sale because it was collections from 10 years ago...instead we walked out the adidas originals store with these super cute sneakers. my bf knows i dont wear sneaks often but he still bought them for me because he saw how much i was drawn to them.

Forum Mid Kawaii

next day i went back to get this polka dotted firebird track jacket. WAY too cute.
and it's the jacket CL is wearing for their I Am the Best dance practice vid. =D

---------------------------------------

last week, i came back from work and ran to my mailbox to check if my BigShow dvd has arrived or not, turns out a small parcel from the states was waiting for me. i was so happy and giddy! i love receiving stuff in the mail!! it was from my little maknae. Her aunt from TW visited so she received a BUNCH of masks and skin products. me and agashi nagged her until she told us she'd send us some. hehehehe *trick* if you keep bugging, you shall get what you want!

writing this for the world to see that i'm old yet finishing up with a heart to make me feel less bad about my age. lol

her note to me =D

maskssss!! yay!! oh and i got some candy too, but Long stole them and ate them all before i could try them. wth.

anyways, i love my team Crayyy so machieee =D can't wait for 2012!!!

very random post, but i had to share. xox

Hair wise...

2011-07-13T23:31:00.005-04:00

my hair is too long nowadays!! too long to tie in a ponytail (yes thats possible, when you tie your hair and the "tail" is just long and never ending, it looks awkward), too long to let loose. too weird to style. i dont know what to do with them anymore. I need to keep them long for my wedding. i always end up pulling them up in a ponytail and braid them. makes me look like an ajumma trying to stay young. T___T"

anyways, that pic up there was taken not too (too) long ago. me & Longie had to attend a wedding so i took that opportunity to try out a hairstyle i would want for my own wedding. it's tied half way, the top is pulled into a slight puff and the rest of the hair is lightly curled. my mom said this style suits me. i don't know yet, i'll try a few before i decide on the final look. what do you guys think?

Longie & me at the wedding

anyhoooo....here's a sneak peek of that hairstyle with my veil =D

BONUS:

since we're having chinese food for the reception, and the dishes will be placed on a lazy susan, i thought i had to cancel the idea of having a centerpiece. thinking about it twice, it looks much better with something in the middle. i went to the florist who did my friend, Aly's wedding and explained the situation to her. she said i can still have something, it just needs to be short so the guests can still see and interact with the person sitting opposite of them and small so the dishes could be displayed around it. i had originally planned to use peonies as my main flower, but unfortunately, they're off season in september. and even if the budget allowed, flying them in from Holland would be a waste as they will be tiny. Helen, my florist proposed a few different flowers and together, we tried to see which looked closest to the beautiful peony. i ended up choosing the esperanza rose, with lovely shades of ivory and pinkish tones at the tip of the petals. She will have to open them one by one for it to look similar-ish to my original pick. a few days later, i came back to see her as she let me know she prepared a sample for me. the centerpiece consisted of a square vase as base, with 2 esperanza roses in the middle of a cloud of hydrangeas. the piece was finished with pearls here and there and a pink organza bow. i was very happy with the result...so i guess the centerpiece up there is the one we're going to have at the reception!

Falling back...

2011-07-05T13:21:00.003-04:00

for the last month, my hands were itching for shopping like crazy! maybe it was because YG didn't release any new merchandise, i've fallen (for a moment,) back into my old shopaholic ways. No worries guys, i did not go overboard and i got some pretty good deals too. :)

here are my fave purchases from the month of June:

M60 "Britpop"

omg i think this might be my favorite jacket of the moment. it might look slightly badass-ish, but paired with a frilly dress, it just looks perfect!!

rivets, eyelets, studs...i like!

M60 Nu Metal skinnies

Mackage "Bebe" in camel

my mother bought this jacket along with the next jackets for me & Amy to share. she said the Bebe looks better on me because its shorter than Oceana(yes, my lil sis is taller than me, *sadface*), so it should be mine and the other, to my sis..but we can switch it up. :) she picked these jackets out herself! i love me mama. ^^

Mackage "Oceana" in black with silver hardware

i bought the Mackage "Wolf" for Longie, he has lots of black leather jackets already, so i thought a grey one would look nice in his wardrobe.

another sample sale find! this lace coat is from a few seasons ago, but a gorgeous piece is still a gorgeous piece even if time goes by.

Bebe worn

Oceana worn

Van Cleef & Arpels Feerie perfume from Clarins sample sale!!
Rabito case from store in chinatown

(i named him Tabito, in honor of Tabiiii bb hehe)

this past weekend there was an extra 30% off merchendise on sale at CM for Canada Day, so i snatched these 2 pieces:

silk tunic

(SUPER TRANSPARENT, so i need to wear a tank dress under or it could also double as a swim cover-up too)

shorts that look like a skirt =]

we dropped by Rockie after brunch last Sunday and my sis bought me this La Senza bikini. on sale for dirt cheap! 6.99$ a piece plus more % off at the cash. niceee thank you sister!!

another chinatown find! cuteee teddy scarf! ^o^

a friend of mine went back to Japan for vacation and i asked him to look for these 2 albums for me. when he brought these back, my eyes lit up and i was as excited as a kid on christmas morning! thank you TL!!! (i was so excited when i asked him to get these that i totally forgot to ask for some magazines!! T___T)

^o^

MISMATCHED

2011-06-20T00:42:00.003-04:00

I've had this post in the draft for the past few weeks but never got around to posting. Looks like no one else will take care of it except me, so i'm posting!! ;) if i didn't do it today...i have no idea when i'll do it or maybe it'll just end up in the trash. i know myself pretty well. lol

So...how have you all been lately? it's been ages...my followers keep growing but the amount of comments keep decreasing. how depressing! but mehhh, i'm still the one to blame right? i take years to reply to your comments and i'm sorry! life is officially taking it's toll on me. i'm exhausted to the core. there's so much going on right now it's not even funny anymore! who ever told you life is easy totally lied to your face. (lol emo mode on) the wedding planning is at it's final stage but i feel like there's still a million things to think about!! wth..if i knew how COMPLICATED everything would be and if the budget allowed, i would've totally hired a wedding planner from the beginning. i'm a control freak and a perfectionist...and i like my plans to be exactly as how i planned. this wedding planning has taught me that i can't always get my way...when the vendors can't..on to PLAN B. i'm not used to having plan Bs, because my plans have always worked out the way i want them to. it's all good i guess, kinda like a reality check. T__T"

anyways, rant done, on with tons of random pix! (i heard you guys like random stuff)

his parents invited me to a dinner party for the teochew association of Montreal that night. they didn't specify the dress code so i had no idea what to wear. i just picked out a lace skirt, loose t-shirt & a bold shoulder blazer.

fiance went with a suit *yawn*

jk..i really like it when he wears a suit =D

random shopping day. i took the pic in the CM boutique.

the end.

thank you for sticking around even if i dont update! xox

RAGE in my soul

2011-05-18T22:59:00.005-04:00

today, i heard the most horrific real life story i ever heard in my life. my mother was talking to an acquaintance (lets call him mr.A) of ours about his daughter. he told us something so twisted i wanted to punch a wall right then and there.

his oldest daughter (13) was born with cleft lip and my mom told him she gets emotional whenever she sees her. she attends high school and he told us she gets bullied and laughed at so much but doesn't dare to cry in front of him. nobody wants to be her friend and all the kids make fun of her. at recess time, the others hang out in groups, yet she stays in the library or goes on the swing by herself with a book in hand. i can't even imagine the pain she has to go through every single day of her life and she's just this young and fragile thing. she can't tell her dad about the hell she lives in because she doesn't wanna make him sad over her matters. she knows he works 2 jobs to feed her and her little sister so she refuses to be the burden for her dad. of course he knows all this, he's her father after all. people think moms know better than dads, thats false...fathers know just as much as moms and they're equally as observant as moms..they just suck at dealing with things. so when he sees his daughter looking at herself in the mirror with sadness in her eyes, he knows what she feels inside her heart and the thoughts in her mind. Mr.A told his story with tears in his eyes but this is not even the worse part. he told us when his daughter came into this world, the nurse handed her to his (now ex)wife. once she saw the newborn's face, she was disgusted and cried and screamed like it was no one's business. the nurse had to snap her back to reality by yelling at her: "WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER, NOT A MONSTER!!!" she still remained angry at her baby and kept crying and screaming some more. Mr.A immediately held his precious baby in his arms...not because no one else would, but because no matter what, she's still his daughter and he'll love her under any circumstance. from that day on, he's never looked at his wife the same way again. they're now battling for custody for the kids. he wants to take care of both because she can't do shit and can't act like a proper mother to them...but of course, she only wants the one without defect.

if this woman shows up in front of me, i don't even know what i'm gonna do to her. she makes me so MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but as a buddhist, i believe in Karma and i think she's gonna get just what she deserves...just wait 'til fate hooks her up. how do people like this even freaking exist??? i don't even know. i'm just so angry................urghhhh...

sorry, that was a pretty depressing post...will post more fun stuff later...

2NE1 x Balmain

2011-05-11T23:31:00.000-04:00

2NE1's fashion certainly didn't disappoint in their newest mv, Lonely (released may 12th, at midnight KST). the girls were decked out in designer gear from top to bottom. the most prominent look was the biker chic look with pieces from well respected house of Balmain[SS11]. fave group wearing my HG brand...what more can i ask for?! if you have a couple of dollahs just asking to be spent...

pictures from various sources such as: net-a-porter, luisaviaroma, style, balmain, google. if you plan to use these collages, please don't forget to mention this page. thank you

Minutes in TO

2011-04-29T14:59:00.005-04:00

2 weeks ago, YS, one of Longie's buddy was sent to Toronto for some training. He was going by himself, so he invited us to come join him for the weekend. Of course we said yes because any reason is valid enough for a weekend road trip.

Before leaving, i didn't check the weather forecast and packed such useless things like shorts and leather jacket...I WAS FREEZING MAH ASS OFF the whole time i was there. OMG, saturday, it was snowing, there was rain, hail, WIND omg everything...urghhh look at my outfit below, FAIL much? it's ok, i guess i didn't look that weird or eye-catching because i saw some girls wearing strappy sandals and mini skirts lol.

my current signature look

[shamelessly similar to the one in the Canadian Tire post *gasp*]

in reality, i actually have 3 staple-looks and i stick to them like duct tape does to a wall. Either i dress like this, or bf shirt with leggings and flats or FULL on bb girl princess look with 5 inch heels(when the weather allows)..take it or leave it =O

(oh and for the anonymous comment who requested a pic of my Trevi with the long strap...is that pic above good enough to see how it looks on? if not, leave me a comment and i'll post actual "modeling" pic for the bag & strap. ^^v)

this scarf didn't cut it, it was really too cold to be a spring day!!1

it's definitely better than nothing though..there's nothing i hate more than being in the cold without a scarf on...urgghh *shudders*

Bestie & Me in Ninja mode

lol, he looks so out of it...but it was the best pic (out of 2 haha)

dim sum in pmall...as per usual.

always and forever in this same hotel..

Mini shopping spree:

got these on sale, too cute to pass
i actually cannot wait to wear this skirt =D

MBD masks that i never tried before. i bought these 2 boxes and gave 1 each to mom and little sis...i had to ask YS to bring me back new ones..

oooohh and ahhhh MBD eye masks!
need to try asap (been up way too many nights for live streamings!!)

i also bought this skull scarf at pmall for 5 bucks. actually, this belonged to Maya because she bought this first. we walked around pmall and saw another store selling the black version. i bought it and we exchanged as Maya = BLACK > white.

pink angel iPhone case also from pmall =D it's too cute!!!

THE CUTEST SOCKS EVER!!! u jelly?? i bought these at One's Living and i love them to bits!!!

the socks were just too adorable, so along with the extra MBD masks, YS also had to buy these for me!! (he handpicked them! wahaha) he said the cashier was giving him weird looks. lmao! oh well...

BONUS PIX

ok thats it, loves!
xox

p.s. i apologize for my low quality pictures as i am too lazy to lug my big cam around! a cellphone is just so much more convenient. oh and another thing, i will try to answer all comments from the last few posts (SO LAZY)

Spring Breeze

2011-04-29T14:36:00.001-04:00

Yeah i know it's spring and it's getting warmer by the day, but we do live in Canada and very often, the weather network can't even predict what's going to happen in the next 2 hours. We've had such CRAZY weather these past weeks that i just don't know how to dress like anymore. did i mention CRAZY? oh yeah..i did. ughhhh...sometimes, i check the forecast in the morning, it predicst rain all day, i dress like crap, wear my trench coat, wear my wellies, bring an extra pair of shoes and lug my umbrella to work and then its super bright and warm in the afternoon...wtf!

[Wedding Glass Slipper]

2011-04-24T12:18:00.020-04:00

After spending a few months looking for my perfect wedding shoes, the hunt is finally over. As i have previously mentioned, a pair of Loubs is a must for my big day. I had a favorite in the bunch, and they were the Greissimos...even though i had set a whole list of possible styles, all i really wanted was a pair of nude Greissimo. I searched long and large and they were impossible to find. The department stores were sold out and so is the official e-shop. i (almost) wanted to die..but before doing so, i posted on TPF about my search for the perfect wedding shoes. a few weeks later, i received a personal message from a member telling me they saw a pair of nude Greissimo in size 37 on ebay and sent me a link to it. i was very skeptical at first because A.i wear 36 so i would have to risk them not fitting me since Loubs size vary according to the style and B.it's on ebay...i mean i buy from ebay, but for little things that cost almost nothing, i never bought anything "important" on there, it's a bit risky. Even with all that hesitation, i was about THIS close to getting them, but totally choked and let the auction end without bidding. It was sad because i thought my last chance of buying my dream shoes passed by and i would never be able to buy them again. =(

Before the whole Ebay case, i saw on Bergdorf another PURRFECT option. It's peep-toe, just how i like them, it's LACE, which is also one of my fave and slingback, so it should be comfy as hell. I showed them to my mom, she said it's beautiful but it's black. Asian = no black on big day. That got me sad because these shoes were the new HOPE since my 1st choice was sold out all over. I had to drop this because of it's color.

Ok so now back to after i skipped my ebay opportunity. A few days passed and i saw a friend on fb posting and spazzing about a new pair of Christian Louboutin (she's a TPF star), the link appeared in my feeds and once i clicked on it, i was FLABBERGASTED and blown away because these ones are the new PERFECT wedding shoes. Forget about the Greissimo, they were nothing compared to this new one. Showed it to everyone and everyone agreed. They weren't released yet, so even though the e-shop didn't deliver to Canada, i still signed for the waitlist and inquired about them. After TONS of emails and long distance phone calls and a few days of shipping, my shoes are finally in and are magnificent and i'm totally in AWE every time i look at them.

On to pictures lovelies!! The first set was taken right after picking them up at the UPS center (urghhhh brokerage fees FU, and UPS, i had a LOT of issues with them too, but it was a nice ending after all). It's kind of dark and we can't really see well, so you might wanna scroll down to see the 2nd set, which was taken yesterday in beautiful daylight. Enjoy and tell me what you think about them!

OUTDOOR SHOOT

So now, all i have to do is to wait patiently until the day i can prance around in them...

thank you for reading,
love you all! xox

LOVE/HATE

2011-04-15T12:47:00.005-04:00

one of my previous post was about the love i had for YG...but honestly, we share more of a love/hate relationship rather than just pure love. why love? it's quite obvious and i've stated that before...but hate? well, they make me spend like crazy. like nonstop. (let's just say all my yg stuff added together could easily be worth a nice pair Loubs) every month, something new comes out, albums, concert dvd, photobook and whatnot. my most recent item is something you might find familiar if you've been following BBboys. once this was on pre-order option, i snatched one right away...it's so bold and in-your-face and i have no idea if i could wear it out without making a fool out of myself. lol however, if one day, courage decides to take over me, i will surely post it up as proof. lol **my 4.5 is on it's way and i just pre-ordered my YGFamily Concert yesterday...fml**

ok, so...back to bijjinesh...

if you did your homework as VIP, or if you've followed my blog consistently, then you should know who this is already..hehe

hubby ChoomTOPtoptop

isn't he just the most adorable ever? always doing his aegyo..awww

Random buys:

some crystals were missing on my other zipper/charm, so i bought a new one to replace it. i picked this skull because i felt like it matched the badassness of my biker jacket. i like to look tough sometimes. lol

i also bought myself a convertible "8" charm necklace/bracelet. long enough to wear as a necklace but there are rings to adjust double wrap it into a bracelet. it's my lucky number =D the luck this comes with is legit, life's treating me with pleasant surprises recently. i wanna believe it comes from this charm. hehe

OUTFIT of 04092011

first sight of Mr. Rolando of 2011 =D

biker leather jacket: JC, bf shirt: Zara, cuffed denim shorts: TR, opaque tights: CM, quilted bucket bag: Burberry, glass slippers: Loubs.

we were in chinatown for our haircuts. thats why my hair is so tamed lol..usually, its pretty much a lion's mane.

i was in the car and saw Turtle's tweet requesting a pic of my pumps. so i twitpicked it.

i like the pic because we can clearly see the awesome arch the shoes give me.

later that day, we had to go to Canadian Tire (major urgghhh). i dont know why but stores like this one and Home Depot and RenoDepot always drain the life out of me. i'm serious! so being the clever girl that i am, i changed into my very trust worthy jackpees before going in (yes i always bring an extra pair of shoes when i wear these pumps out because i never know when my feet will decide to "force quit" on me) lol alas, even with comfy sneaks on, i was still dead and once i got home, i napped for a little bit before going to dinner w. the besties.

**i was really bored in that store, i swear...its so boring i wanted to die. but while walking through the aisles, i spotted this mirror, of course, i took the opportunity to selca. haha**

i tried this hairstyle that night...do you think its age appropriate?

anyways, thats all for this update...
i'll see you lovelies laturrr xox

p.s. i'm going to Toronto tonight after work and will come back on Sunday night. i don't think i'll tweet or foursquare, but if you ever spot me, tell me exactly when and where and i'll send you a little gift! real talk. heh! and if no one sees me, that will mean that i've mastered the art of being a ninja. baiii y'all!

oh yeah...my wedding shoes came... =] will reveal in the near future. yay!

YG LOVE

2011-04-05T11:25:00.000-04:00

I meant to post about my love affair with YGE for a while but i kept on procrastinating and telling myself i'll post once i receive the new album/item/photobook or whatnot...but omg, there's ALWAYS something on it's way to me so i never got around to posting anything. [at this moment, my pre-ordered T.O.P t-shirt is coming...i should be getting it this week, i'm more than excited!! after the t-shirt, my 4.5 album and poster will also be shipped because once again, i have pre-ordered] =D

so why do i love YGE? i dunno...maybe because they promote TALENT, CREATIVITY and UNIQUENESS first instead of just pretty faces/mediocre voices? lol whenever they come out with a song, an album, a concept etc...it instantly becomes a HIT. songs are always top charted [both korean and international]. members of YG Fam seem to get along great, from artists, actors to dancers and staff..they got a great bond and it shows through the lens. i also love how much effort they put into making each item stand out on it's own, both quality and design are top notch. everything is just gorgeous! oh and did you know that YG donates part of their profit to charity?? so, the money i invest in them gets returned to the needed, isn't it a win win situation after all?...i LOVE YG SO MUCH!!!

these are the items from my collection[all official merchandise], which i started around half a year ago:

Taeyang Solar Deluxe Edition
it was hard to find and i feel very lucky to have it!

i love the t-shirt so much, i keep wearing it. looks like a bf tee =]

GD&TOP High High album

i truly LOVEEE LOVEE LOVEEE this album! i love the fact that i can hear more of my hubby T.O.P ;) his voice just kills me!! i can't even pick a fave song as i appreciate all of them. but since i know the reason behind Oh Mom...i have a special feeling towards it and i tear up every time i listen to it. Oh Yeah was pretty awesome too, TOPBOM=SEXY!! no but honestly...i love all the songs!!

this was pre-ordered and i was happy to find i got the silver bunny =]

T.O.P of the top
the photobook that came with the album is just too much to put into words. GORGINESS!!

yesasia is crap and didn't include a poster with the cd, i had to order them separately. i didn't want to ponder on and on about which one i'd get (i pre-ordered them really early and they didn't even have pictures up yet), i just bought both. not regretting!!

flawless JiTOP

2NE1 To Anyone

when i was pre-ordering my BB 4th mini album, i also snatched this up since i didn't have it yet. i already had all the songs in my laptop but encouraging them by buying their official album is what a real BlackJack should do. the best reward an artist could receive is seeing their work being appreciated.

my gorgeous YGLadies!!
[Park Sisters stan, but their chemistry as a whole is undeniable]

BIGBANG 4th Mini Album

i remember dropping by the post office to pick this package up. i was too excited to wait until i get home to open it up. could not contain myself so i just ripped the box apart right then and there. i was so happy i almost cried (i already heard all the songs but having this in my hands was just heartwarming!)!!! i was looking frantically for my YGFam card to see who i got and i almost died when i saw it.....

TOP TOP TOP
out of the possibilities, i got my hubby Tabiiii =D
i squealed like a toddler on speed!!! i think Longie got startled. lol

my beautiful poster!

YGFam Concert Making Book
i like seeing them bts! =] i wonder if they're gonna release a DVD for the concert.
will be added to my to-buy list if it ever does. lol

of course, i also have the poster that goes with the book.

Taeyang Solar Concert DVD =D
no need for fancams, i got the real thing right here.
it's eye candy during the whole time and even beyond[because the images lingers on your mind..lol

it comes with a NICE photobook... ;)

and i have a poster for this as well.

my YG things piled up

Taeyang Solar Hoodie
i get a lot of stares, compliments and glares when i wear this out..

2NE1 hoodie chyeahhh!!!

i wanted to buy the camo hoodie as well, but i already have a Great China Wall camo hoodie and i rarely wear it because it's hard to make an outfit with it, so...no go =|.. there was also the JiTOP hoodie that i didn't get. i didn't like the fact that it was in white velour but kind of regret not buying it because it's nowhere to be found now. i could've gotten it for the sake of collecting.

PLAY with GD&TOP
this set sends me to heaven! so much of TOP goodies, it's love!!

everything looks wonderful!!!!

2 dvds for longer lasting pleasure..lmao

me & hubby, we have similar taste =] biker jacket ftw!

my baby boo! wae so cute???

BIGBANG "LOVE SONG" TOP TEASER

2011-04-04T01:20:00.001-04:00

i can't handle him..he's too much...

Beauty & Co.

2011-04-03T23:29:00.009-04:00

A few people have asked me what concealer i was using to camouflage my panda eyes, well this is it ladies..Benefit's Erase Paste in 01 Fair. it works wonders!

while on the recommendation theme, i would like to introduce to you my current favorite moisturizer: Jamieson Laboratories Provitamina E Fresh Youthful Hydrating Gel-Cream. this is probably the awesomest moisturizer i've ever tried. light weight, fast absorbing and OH SO refreshing. the best part? it can be found in drugstores for under 25$! best deal ever oh yeahhh!!!

DAILY ESSENTIALS:

after the moisturizer, here are my choice of BB Creams. i try to alternate so my skin doesn't get used to dealing with only one product..just i case that one runs out, i won't be stuck in a dead-end. left to right: Etude House BB Magic Cream, Skin79 Super Plus BB Cream, Skin79 Dream Girls BB Cream. and then of course, my Benefit Erase Paste concealer for those nasty under eye bags.

on to colors

Chanel Poudre Universelle pressed powder, Chanel Travel Palette [which is mainly for the brown and champagne eyeshadows], Nars Orgasm blush, Lancome Cils XL primer, Lancome Hypnose Drama mascara and Shu Uemura lash curler.

Addiction:
the other day, we were at Ogilvy to buy Maya's birthday gift and on our way out, we dropped my the Chanel makeup counter. Fiance saw me looking at the spring collection and asked me if i wanted to get anything. remembering i had already bought the shadow palette and the nicer glossimer color, my attraction was shifted towards the nail lacquers. the OPI & Color Clubs my sister recently got me also popped into my head so i put the lacquers back at their spot. seeing how much i wanted them, Longie bought them for me. =D it's nothing big, but i was giddy for the rest of the day. lol

Black Pearl & Pearl Drop

my humble Chanel lacquer collection
this is love <3

i wore black pearl last week(picture above, duhh) and pearl drop this week
but did not manage to take a good picture of it yet.

not a very lengthy entry, but it is better than nothing right? hehe
next post=fangirl....stay tuned =D
