Have you guys seen this?

Our very own optus has one of the best flash websites in the world. Its mildly addictive, especially when you're meant to be studying for your mid year exams right now.

but when you get bored of confusing the whales with whale sound recordings, there are plenty of useless but beautiful flash websites to waste more of your time on. Generally they have a relaxing feel to it so I guess you could tell your self. or boss, that your trying to de-stress.

Happy browsing! haha

I bet that promotional poster was dying for this day to come.

AHHH gotta love Melbourne in Autumn.

I ventured out to K-mart for cheap, mediocre officwear for a quick fix, because the only collared blouse I had was a red gingiham one that stopped at mid-driff and the skirt I had didn't fit very well. Needless to say, their coporate wear collection was hideous and did not fit well. (I'd have to say they were pretty expensive for what they were)

Luckily for me, I welcome random clothing stores with open arms. Just outside K-mart was a store whose entrance was lined with ugly clothes on ugly sales racks. Now, at this point, I was getting pretty desperate and I didn't have time to sieve though the op shops.


I'm pretty sure you guys know where this story is going. I found a diamond in the rough; a beautifully fitted pin-striped pencil skirt that ran so nice and tight at the knees. I had finally found a cheap alternative the the 50s wiggle skirt and something appropriate for the day. :D


Normally the pencil skirts that you find out there in the wild don't hug your legs like they used to, and I find very unflattering on the body.

For the price of $19.95, the random clothes store saves the day again:D

My wallet is almost complete! HURRAH! Not gonna put any fancy shit in there no more lest I lose it again.

I have a healthy obsession with jackets and other kinds of outerwear. As of now, I have 34 sweaters, blazers, jackets, coats and ponchos, all stuffed in my tiny cupboard. It may not be much to some, but I'd have to say my outerwear collection is far bigger than any type of clothing I own.


I guess I owe it to the fact that when I was growing up, I've always wanted to wear jackets. But I couldn't because of the tropical weather of Singapore. Also, outerwear has the tendency to match almost everything you have on. Even if it doesn't, no one cares.

Every jacket has a story. As it wraps around your torso and arms, protecting you from any chilly winds that might be passing by, or the raindrops thay may be falling, it add a little bit to the chapter.

I'd love to tell the story of each and every one of them but that just won't be practical.



This was the first functional jacket my Dad bought for me when I first came over to Melbourne. It was on sale at the Dangerfield at Chadstone. It was great for the first winter I spent down under and I absolutlely love the smell; burlap and Lovelovelove perfume by Morgan. Just like it did when I first started wearing it.


I got a couple of jackets from one of my coolest friends, Sherwan. They were really womens' office blazers that belonged to his mother. Naturally, they do what they always do best; instantly transforms ANYTHING to a presentation-friendly outfit. Unfortunately, I left one in Singapore and I lost the other :( I still have one left!



This hideous sweater has quite a bit of a story soaked up in it. It was my Mother's ( I think)when she was living with my Grandparents at this house. This was also the hideous sweater I tried to wear and make it 'geek-chic'. Too bad it was incredibly itchy and very very uncomfortable (I think people in the 80s didn't have comfy sweaters). Also, this was the sweater that I wore on my first proper date with Matt. :D:D But because its so scratchy, I've only worn it one other time.


Fur is also one of my rapidly growing obessions and clearly my Grand dad noticed. He gave this to me in my 2nd year of University and he told me it belonged to his late wife. Its a beautiful garment, which makes me feel so regal when I put it on, though I'm not sure if its real fur or not. It feels like it is, but it doesn't matter if isn't.

Isn't it great when you discover a totally awesome song on your own ipod.

I'm so proud of my paper models. Haha. I made the hideous brown bug thing. Matt did the others.

It took a long time ok!
