Korea Pass Free Transportation!

Wednesday, February 29th, 2012

if you’re travelling to Korea from now till May then good news for you.

I thought I’d share about this because many of my readers here plan to go to Korea soon.

say, so happen that you’re travelling there soon, just purchase a Korea Pass (at selected places) and you’d get 10%  of up to 50,000won for free! the Korea Pass can be used for dining, shopping, accomodation and transportation! what a steal. to be honest, I only used 20,000won in a week for transportation so with this pass you can travel further.

say, you buy a 100,000won Korea Pass, you’ll get an additional 10,000won. you can get up to 50,000won free! and this is a to foreigner only discount in conjunction with the Visit Korea 2012. so if you’re there. DON’T MISS IT! grab the chance and MAKE FULL USE OF A FOREIGNERS BENEFITS. =D.

CLICK HERE

click on the link above to download and print the coupon! all you have to do is register under that visitkorea site =D.

and here are a few pictures Calvin Cheah took and (heavily) edited. =). they are in higher quality compared to the post I’ve posted before. ^^.

Nuffnang is 5!

Monday, February 27th, 2012

exactly today’s Nuffnang’s 5th Birthday! so, HAPPY BIRTHDAY NUFFNANG!

Timothy shared his story about how Nuffnang’s Birthday Date came about. it’s actually on 2am on the 27th of February. because apparently Ming (another Co-Founder) is supersticious and went to the Feng Shui Master and that guy said they must set up their Business in between 2-4am on that date to succeed in their business. seems like the Feng Shui Master did his part, because Nuffnang have 1,000,000 bloggers registered under them today!

this time, the event is hosted at Neverland, it’s quite a pretty club actually, located right behind Borneo Baruk Club (behind Pavilion). never been there before but for events I must say the place is close to perfect. awesome stage!

IMG_5980 copy

something we all get from the goodie bag! a Nuffnang photo frame <3. have always adored frames like these. now I want to bring it to Korea too. pfft. but it’s a little too heavy =S.

there were a lot of things that I like inside too. like a bottle of Revive, Milo, Mountain Dew and PACKETS OF MILO MUAHAHAH. MILO FRENZY!

IMG_5908 copy

awkward looking picture of me, the revive isotonic and the lovely Vivien! and yeap, that’s a 5 on my head.

I think I look awful in thick make up pfft. shall never pur on dark eyeshadows again (by myself.) T_T.

IMG_5918 copy

IMG_5921 copy

all shades of blue. hahaha. except Fresh. because all the Nuffies were in black!

IMG_5923 copy

IMG_5938 copy

CONFETTI!

IMG_5941 copy

IMG_5947 copy

Nuffnang events always serve delicious food. oh that otak otak and duck! bliss.

IMG_5959 copy

Nuffie Michelle! the Fashionista in Nuffnang. why? because she’s always very very very well dressed. and she always have nice hair too. crap don’t have a full length picture with her T_T. it’s in her camera!

IMG_5963 copy

these lucky 3 people walked away with a gateway to Sipadan/ Panasonic Cameras!

IMG_5962 copy

they had to cat sexy walk with a tissue box on their head and later do a moon walk and a cat woman walk. not easy. but Yeong Boon was totally entertaining us with his robotic moves hahah.

IMG_5966 copy

Yeong Boon and Jayren =D. I’ve always seen Yeong Boon in the Inniters Gathering and Jayren, he’s one awesome guy because his mind is always filled with positivity. I want to be like that too T_T.

IMG_5952 copy

Vivien with the tumbler I won and MIAO!!!! miao = Jian = akiraceo.com. his comics are.. A MUST READ! you’d get addicted to it. the first few times I visited his blog I spent hours in it reading ALL his posts. too cute to not read. and they are funny! his latest post consists of “finding the cat” which made me.. go near the computer screen for almost 5 minutes pfft. found the cat finally.

I also won another Nuffnang t-shirt! but not lucky enough to win the camera pfft hahahaha.

IMG_5951 copy

awesome performances by this awesome band. I forgot their name T_T. but their songs were really crowd pleasing =D. they know some really old school songs which really surprised me too! to be honest, for english songs, I prefer songs from the 80s and 90s compared to now. =S. sometimes I feel like a granny. but I found some people around my age whom thinks the same too!

IMG_5945 copy

we all had a Nuffnang cupcake. =3. yum. this blue themed Birthday Party reminds me of Nat’s hahaha. especially with the two toned balloons hanging around =D.

IMG_5971 copy

Yee Cow (okay just joking, Yee Hou.), Chay Chay (Nicholas Chay), Foo Foo (Benjamin Foo) and Kendy (Kendrick Ng).

funny how I grouped them together in this picture and they all have cute nicknames =P. Yee Cow have just returned to the Nom Nom Media and is now in Churp Churp. so you better remember his face and say hi to him because he’s managing your Churp Churp jobs =P. Kendy has a huge readership because of his cute doodles =D. maybe you can check it out?

IMG_5958 copy

I promised Ernest we’d go on a date. this funny guy sucked Helium from the Balloons and said nonsense for the whole night! and there he is being half a head taller than me =D.

IMG_5964 copy

Michelle, or just call her MIMI!! one of my favourite Nuffie =3. always so pretty and cute. now don’t that jacket look like that Secret Garden one? except it doesn’t go all the way up to the neck.

yes I know I need a haircut. anyone wanna volunteer being my hair stylist?

IMG_5973 copy

Nuffnang’s Co-Founder Timothy Tiah! Audrey’s fiance hehehe have you seen their meme proposal yet? =D.

IMG_5976 copy

I can’t believe I’ve been with Nuffnang for so long too since the very first event I went to was when Nuffnang celebrate their FIRST Birthday. T___________T. this is all for now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NUFFNANG!

Monday, February 27th, 2012

will update these pictures with a better quality one once I get them! so these 2 are from Jacktan, another senior of mine in school and the other 2 from Calvin, known from a gathering hahaha.

I felt that Jack is more to the taiwanese type of photography while Calvin is just pure emo =P

Gnostecism.

I have this real talented secondary schoolmate friend whose name is Gary Ng. being one of the funniest person around, he is also an amazing photographer. despite taking architecture as his major, his passion for photography is.. beyond what words can explain. he is more of the landscape shooting type of photographer but slowly moving on to portraits. so these are actually pictures to remember my long hair as I am REALLY chopping it off this time!

I’ve edited the pictures to my likings (I was a Graphic Design student okay!)

enjoy!

didn’t know what to wear so I simply put together these 2 pieces and I forgot to add a belt =X.

PS : honestly, I don’t think I’m that suitable to be captured pfft I look weird. plus no sharp features fml.

what to pack for studying overseas?

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

its less than 3 weeks away so I MUST be myself; the paranoid girl who gets things done early!

the MUST BRINGS would be :
Passport (settled Visa 2 months ago. phew.)
Money (enough to survive for a week.)
Laptop (with charger)
Camera (with charger)
Pin adapter to suit the country you’re going to.
Toothpaste (in my case, Korea’s toothpaste has no FLOURIDE and I do not want no tooth decay!)
Deodorant (because it’s not a Korean need. Koreans all smell awesome. that’s what I heard.)

and now some stuff you can’t live without :
CLOTHES! since I’m leaving for the Spring there, I’ll need something warm.
Coats
SCARFS (a lot of them! change a scarf and you’d look diff.)
Long Johns
Autumn clothes
Formal clothing (1)
Nice dress (1)
Pyjamas (3)
Socks (I only need a few because Korea is the land of socks.)
Lingerie (a years worth because it’s super expensive there and lack of design and size bigger than A/B. wth)
Towel (ours are always huger. 2.)
Pillow case (prefer to use my own.)
Bed sheets (prefer my own. you can buy a cartoon bolster there though hehe)
Accessories (your favourite necklace, bracelet, watch….)
a little make up (Korean make up are around 50% cheaper there than here)
Toothbrush
Sport shoes
Boots (and I’ll get the others there!)
Medication (if have)
Aloe Vera gel (my Korean friend bought TUBES of it back. so you know what to do.)
MAGGI (incase you miss home)
Milo/Ribena (same reason. but milo is available in Itaewon. mad price though.)

and here are some stuff you can definitely get in Korea, CHEAP. :
MAKE UP
Facial masks
Summer clothes
COTTON! (walk though MyeongDong and you’d prolly get it free!)
Cotton buds are also available =D.

I think this is all for now. to tell you the truth. I am still packing. care to list out what I’ve missed to help me? =/.

A Meme Birthday.

Sunday, February 19th, 2012

attention : a lot of disturbingly vain pictures of my face. read with your own risk.

SO! it’s our beloved Nuffnang‘s BIRTHDAY next week.

let’s see how long has Nuffnang been here with us..

IMG_5715 copy

one year? NAH.

IMG_5722 copy

two! too short.

IMG_5724 copy

THREEEE. nope.

IMG_5726 copy

four…? near.

IMG_5710 copy

and yes, IT’S THEIR 5TH BIRTHDAY! and no it doesn’t only stand for FIVE. it is the STICKMAN’S SIGNATURE POSE!

Nuffnang-Logo

THIS ONE!

so the question is, how should the Famous Nuffnang Stickman celebrate his birthday!

since Nuffnang’s Co-Founder, Timothy Tiah had a meme proposal, WHY NOT A MEME PARTY?! it’s not like we have to wear a mask on our faces. but say, pose like a meme in at least a few pictures in conjunction with Timothy’s proposal success! so here’s some examples of what we all can do to tease Timothy’s proposal in a fun and happy way =P.

just in case you don’t know what meme’s are. look at the little characters whom I’m trying to imitate OR visit 9gag.com.

IMG_5796 copy

I am pretty close. after I edited this picture, I was thinking, why not have larger pictures?!

IMG_5762 copy1

okay, these are not so close, but you know you can do better. NEXT BATCH!

IMG_57912 copy2

you know that I totally won in the “this feels awesome” face. >=D. okay, stop laughing now =(.

IMG_5785 1copy

okay that top left picture is impossible to imitate. pfft.

IMG_5753 copy

puking rainbows ftw. you know you can do these faces too. easily.

IMG_5776 copy

LOL face is awesome. yes?

IMG_5761 copy2

so Nuffnang, what do you think of my idea?

IMG_5729 copy2

Nuffnang : you must be kidding. too much of a hassle. I’ll think about it.

IMG_5750 copy2

okay..

IMG_5816 copy

remember! you said you’ll think about it!

*********************************************

okay the post of a zillion of my ugly faces ends here.

as for today, I had my 2nd shooting (I don’t usually go for these because it’s awkward. but because this time the photographers are my close friends so.. ) ^_____________^. which I don’t know how it went. only retrieved one picture so far.

Jamie-1 copy

I think I am only a great look-at-the-camera-with-that-photostated-smile person. I think I’d look weird “candid”. hmm. oh well, I shall wait for the pictures! will update them soon.

IMG_5583 copy

like this picture because it looks like as if I have a ring lighting. hahaha. okay, that’s all for now!

I am having the most horrible time packing now. my room is messy like a bin. 2 suitcases already filled. and those were only clothes. I still have my maggi, milo, shoes and accessories! *dies*. those winter clothes are so bulky (AND HEAVY).

PS : HAPPY 21ST 22ND BIRTHDAY CHEE YUN SAM!
