it's so Jil Sander, very clean and nice

Nice pair but I am not sure I can rock that color

I love the jean shirts. Seem like Jean shirts are IN again. I saw alot in runway, especially D&G and Dsquared

I love all those shirts, they will be mine soon

Although I don't own a piece of Jil Sander, I have always admired her design, very minimal, relaxed and clean. She teamed up with Japanese retail giant Uniqlo for winter. It could be pretty cool in other parts of the world but not in SG. When can I wear such coats? Or Burberry trench? Anyway, some of the pieces are quite nice and I would definitely buy shirts. I am not sure about coats and jackets though. After Jimmy Choo teamed up with H&M, now it's time for uniqlo+J. Gorgeous people in SG could get a piece (or more) when Uniqlo Orchard 313 opens next month. I will be on holiday so I seriously hope I could get a piece for myself when I am back.

With yummy Christmas log

I have been very much busy with my projects as well as my presentations and exams. My last presentation was just 2 days before my first paper. It has been a tiring week. I just finished 3 papers and I felt much better since those 3 are considered the heaviest for me. I am now left with two mods which I feel much happier to study. I am going home after that. I m pretty much excited to see my family back.
From the pics, one can see that I spent too much time @ my fav cafe.

W and Vogue Dec

2009-11-13T22:31:00.001-08:00

Beautiful Demi before the W mag shots

Demi Moore looks super skinny in current W magazine with Balmain dress. The dress is pretty but she looks horrible with her bones sticking out. I am not sure whether Demi lost weight or too much PS for the cover. Overall, the cover is shot by M&M so might be too much PS if I am not wrong.

Lily Cole( I didn't realize that she is still around but this girl is featured in upcoming Tim Burton and Johnny Depp's film) and Lady GaGa

Love that shot- dreamy

Lily GaGa

Lady GaGa seems to be total IT girl right now. I love her costumes.. She is fashionably outrageous. I also have the feeling that the more successful she is, the more she put efforts to fashion and damn fabulous heels. She has recorded 'Telephone' with another diva Beyonce for her new album.

Jerry's choice!

My chawder soup-nice but very little :(

My grilled(over-grilled) salmon..yumm!

Throughout these years. I have been eating Fish and Co. quite a lot after I celebrating my 20th birthday there..yea!haha..the only main I have most of the time is seafood platter since all the good ones are inside, such as prwans, mussels, dory fish(although I hate dory), yellow rice and chips..I love their drinks, especially elephancino or something..which is super huge and nice. But I didnt see that in the menu this time. I went to Ion Fish and Co with Jerry and Han since we were rushing to have saturday dinner and didn't have creative ideas where to eat. We just had grilled Norwaygien salmon with chips..it's pretty nice, except mine is abit burnt. It reminded me of Lars and my Norwaygien summer a year ago, where I had too much grilled,pan-fried salmons...until I hate it so much!

Love burmese food :)

2009-10-25T05:03:00.000-07:00

Isn't is Yummy? :P

Burmese rice cake..yummy

Avocado milkshake

My portion with prawns, kang kong and fred tofu! yumm

I went out with Javier last friday for dinner but we couldn't decide what to eat. Being lovers of Japanese food, we have been having either Waraku or Tonkichi everytime we went out for dinner. But this time I asked him to try out burmese food. We went to Pennisular Plaza, where one could find most of the burmese food and yea..everything about burmese and burma there. We went to Inle at basement 1. Although I don't like the lady boss, I have been a steady customer since she opened this shop years back. I am pretty much stick to this shop because of its chinese-burmese food such as Kyae-Oo. We had fresh water king prawns, fried kang kong, fried tofu and some soup..and Javier had Avocado milkshake and burmese rice cake (yummy)..he loved it!

Pizza hut on Sunday

2009-10-21T10:03:00.000-07:00

I had this nice Jap Italian meal with Calvin last weekend before we met up with Jerry for clubbing :D

Cheap buy @ topman

2009-10-18T07:42:00.000-07:00

Past weekend, I walked around Raffles City with Jerry and we happened to find Topman is having sales for some shirts. We browsed through and got ourselves a shirt each (40%+10% member discount) and a belt for me (the next day,I met up with Calvin for dinner and I bought one more belt..don't know why). I was rushing since I met Rex there also. I bought wrong size for the belt and kept asking the sale personnal to punch more holes for the belt.Damn! I bought Large size :( Anyway it's super cheap though...

My lovely apple crumble :D

Javier's brownies!

Javier's Laksa seafood pasta

My Tom Yum seafood pasta

Ah Chew Desserts, Bugis

Javier's grass jelly with mango

My grass jelly with peach

Today was eventful; I had Ah Chew desserts before dinner. It’s located at Bugis. It changed menu to add more desserts, especially those made of grass jelly. Now I can choose from over 40 desserts. I had grass jelly with peach and Javier had grass jelly with mango since we haven't had grass jelly dessert at Ah Chew before. The dessert was nice, with chunky grass jelly with peaches for me and mango for Javier. It’s not too sweet and simply fine. The only thing I wanna complain is too much ice which I can’t have these days because of my sensitive teeth.

We went to Creation to have dinner after that. Thanks to Bernard who brought me there, I had dined there a lot of times with my close buddies. It’s a small pasta shop at Shaw Centre. I normally have 2 types of pastas to order every time I go there although I know there are a lot of choices, Tom Yum seafood pasta or Laksa seafood pasta. Both are divine. I had Tom Yum pasta today. I love that place because of its cheap but really really nice set meal of pastas. One could only need to pay $15.20 for 3-course dinner. It’s really cheap as one can choose from different types of pastas, soup of the day, drinks and desserts. I had apple crumble with ice-cream today. Yumm!

Ahkar loves Screme

2009-10-14T07:20:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I had a quick lunch @ Screme. I am sure all (or most) SMU students know about it since it’s being run by students and it’s more like students’ bar with relaxing atmosphere. I just had a chicken cheese meal for $5.40 which comes along with a canned drink (I can choose from the fridge), chicken cheese hotdog (those German hotdogs), mashed potato and salad (mostly lettuce with mayo). I can’t complain much for $5 meal and it is definitely better than much healthier than Mac or KFC student meals (I always had them). I had meals and drinks at Screme a few times even before it changed the name to this name. That place is for students who just wanna run away from stressful school life for awhile and chat up with friends over a meal or a beer (you can find different types of beer that I haven’t seen before). It also has game console for students to play games with friends. One thing I am impressed is their lovely service. I had a pizza with my friends and it wasn’t done well. They made another pizza for us plus free cupcakes for us. It’s indeed quite sweet but not sure whether they could make money out of our meal. I know there is live band playing there at times but not sure about the time and date though.

Ahkar loves Thai Food

2009-10-14T07:06:00.000-07:00

I have been to Thailand many times until I stopped going there these years. I don’t know why but it just happened, maybe partly because of political instability but my old friend from Bangkok still told me nothing’s going on and I could come anytime to visit him. I miss the Thai food there and one trip I had to make sure I have Tom Yum Soup every meal. I tried different types of Tom Yum Soup that trip from light/clear soup to heavily spiced soups! I love spicy ones!

I love the coffee shop near my school, along Bencoolen Street. I am not a big fan of eating at coffee shop but I do eat at coffee shop or hawker if the food is good. It’s a small coffee shop (with so many Thai trannies around :P) and voila! It has authentic Thai food sold by Real Thai lady. I have had lunch and dinners there many times, tried pineapple rice (yummy and the serving is huge), Phat Thai (Thai fried noodles- yummy but I hate peanuts), green curry chicken (quite nice with light coconut milk flavor), papaya salad (Love it although I hate peanuts again), fried fish (nice but hard to eat- I hate to eat things with lots of bones or shells in public), seafood omelet (NO…no for me) and most yummy one is(are) Tom Yum Soup and Tom Yum Noodle (literally Tom Yum Soup with glass noodles). The soup is simply nice and tastefully done, if you can’t take very spicy stuff, you can tell the lady to reduce the spiciness. It’s simply authentic with so many spices, fish fillets, and prawns inside. I don’t mind having it everyday.

Ahkar loves izzue

2009-10-12T06:17:00.001-07:00

Because of Jerry, I fall in love with Izzue when I went to HK last summer. I bought a few polo Ts and T-shirt, I even asked Jerry to buy for me when he was in HK. Partly because its ranges are unique, interesting, nice and cheap(or affordable) for me.I love this T-shirt with cute and sketchy words.
I love this shorts. Shorts are still IN. Grey and black still are dominant colors in most Fall collections as usual, especially CK calvin klein. I love how the shorts was being tapered nicely and the cutting,not too short and not too long.
I love this stripped pullover. It's just simple but it reminds me of Chanel black & white strips although Chanel is very feminine. I could just pair up with solid color shorts and voila! I hate to dress up so it's gonna be fine with me :)

school

2009-10-11T23:06:00.000-07:00

I would be at school the whole day for today since I have class till 10.15pm. Currently I am doing my schoolwork. I recently saw this new tart shop in Raffles City. I will post pics after I have tried from there :D

Love for studded

2009-10-10T00:35:00.000-07:00

Super metal-studded Louboutin

Black and green ones are Balenciagas

Black metal-studded prada shoes

MMM sunglasses

I don’t know why but my liking for studded objects grows a lot, maybe because of the rough economy, rough times. I recently like this Maison Martin Margiela sunglasses which isn’t wearable (at least for me). I love fashion but I am not adventurous in dressing and I hate to dress up. I recently broke my shades so I am looking for new sunglasses. MMM sunglasses are pretty cool but I am not sure I could find this pair in Club21. I love the rim color and the shade color. It’s very futuristic and the design is pretty modern. I love how MMM does the bridge, no bridge.

Those Prada shoes?? I saw that pair (or similar to that pair) at Ion. Although it’s definitely scene-stealer, I love how Prada makes it very metal-studded but definitely less attention-seeking than Louboutin (the first pic) which is super-hot but super expensive also ($2,200 for a pair).

These studded wallets are quite cool, Prada, Balenciaga (my favorite brand) and Dior Homme. Thinking of getting one of these after my wallet is in bad shape, which I doubt so as I have been using my current wallet for less than a year. I am the kind who will buy another one after the current one is spoiled. I don’t like to have so many wallets. Maybe thinking of buying a new cardholder.

Obama wins Nobel Prize

2009-10-09T22:12:00.000-07:00

Aung San Suu Kyi, the winner of 1991 Nobel Peace Prize

I took her pic at Oslo!

Barack Obama, the winner of 2009 Nobel Peace Prize

Although he became president at the wrong time or I should say messy time (with all those health care issue, global economy downturn, financial crisis...and many many more), Barack Obama won presitigious Nobel Peace Prize "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples" according to Nobel Peace Prize website. The sweet thing is Obama said he would donate money from Nobel Prize to charity. According to what I have read, people are still wondering whether giving out the most presitigious prize to Mr.Obama is a good thing (to respect and show his contributions towards international diplomacy during 2008 before he became president of USA) or a bad thing (giving him such prize in a very short period as he hasn't really started working as REAL fighter(i should say fighter for peace), put him in limelight and set impossible goals for him to achieve).
Whatever it goes, I would congradulate Mr.Obama for his achievement, who is now the same league as Daw Aung San Suu Kyi (whom I am always proud of as a Burmese), the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize winner "for her non-violent struggle for democracy and human rights". I took a pic with her when I was in Oslo,not her but her pic at Nobel Peace Museum at Oslo,Norway. And I seriously hope she could go and collect Nobel Peace Prize by herself. I hope because we all live with hopes.

Nectarie,Clarke Quay

2009-10-09T09:24:00.000-07:00

Left : ME, Right: Jack

My yummy Pistachio white chocolate

Jack's choice! double chocolate mud cake with crunchy hazelnut ice-cream

My choice!

It's not my first time having dessert at Nectarie, last time I went was with Jerry,Ben and Sam before Sam left for Sydney. We met Lawla there and it's a great surprise as 3 of us have known each other for almost a decade. We should celebrate 10th year in Sydney next year..maybe! I went there with Jack today because I wanted to have something sweet before sleep. Jack ordered double chocolate mud cake with crunchy hazelnut ice-cream and I ordered pistachio white chocolate cake and iced chocolate hazelnut.The dessert was sinful but of cause yummy...my white chocolate was light white chocolate with tangy(or sour) raspberry cream and green layer which tasted very similar to kaya. it's good but Jack's choice was obviously better.I tried abit, the dark chocolate was superb although I wasn't a big fan of hazelnut ice-cream ..maybe it's too nutty for me :)

Some Japanese food at Ion and Yummy Ikea dessert

2009-10-09T09:03:00.000-07:00

Yummy Ikea pancake

Japanese Food

Pork katsu with miso soup!

I tried this Japanese fast food shop at Ion today. It's considered expensive for fast food as I paid 15 bucks for curry pork katsu and mineral water($1.60-the cheapest drink in the list). The food was ok. The curry is slightly light and pork katsu isn't bad but I still prefer my own favourite Tonkichi which specialize in katsu.The miso was not bad, or at least interesting since they didn't use those cheap readymade stuff. I can feel the light taste of miso with carrots and dried ham,cheaper version of Tonkichi Tonjiru :D
Good for light lunch but pricy for fast food.
I went to eat desserts at Ikea while accompanying Jerry. I just had this pancake and banana(strange pair though). Yummy! I always love Ikea food, cheap and nice.

Shanghai world expo

2009-10-08T02:50:00.000-07:00

My adopted country-Singapore's pavilion

Turkey Pavilion-lovely with bright red

I wanna go there....it will be held in Shanghai from 1 May to 31 Oct 2010. All the countries will complete and show what they are capable of, especially with futuristic pavilions to attract visitors. Maybe I will go there during summer break but I have to do summer studies this year.Damn!I have never been to Shanghai.

Loves Jimmy

2009-10-08T00:23:00.000-07:00

The patent shoes are really nice and striking!

I love this bag with metal studs, the leather looks good too!

Jimmy Choo (brand) is seriously well-known for its pretty and expensive heels and women accessories (and lately bags), especially because of SATC along with Manolos. I have never thought Mr.Choo will design shoes or clothes for men. But he did for H&M,one of my favourite brands (and what a pity!I couldn't get it in Singapore).I fall in love with Jimmy Choo's H&M men 's wear when I first saw weeks ago. The clothes are quite normal although I love leather bomber jacket. But i love the shoes and bags, they are just sleek and understated(yet bold)
