Almost like addicted to travel and visiting various charming little hotels,
A and I stumbled upon this beautiful gem while we were surfing the net the other day and decided to give it a try.
WANDERLUST, according to the dictionary, is “a strong desire to travel”.
What a beautiful word! ♥
We were even more impressed when we got to the hotel!
The interiors of the hotel was super gorgeous – I love the details of every wall, every corner.
Even the exterior of the hotel is super nice.
It was actually a school many decades ago and the building was preserved to become the Wanderlust Hotel today.

There are a lot of cute little signs and small details that showed how much effort was put into the decor of this place.
I was super trigger happy when I was there!
I wish I could bring this lightbox home! :p

There is a bar at the lobby with live acoustic music at night.
The chairs are damn cute. There were like barber chairs and even those that looked like supermarket trolleys.

When we checked in, we were handed this little book that looks like some old school miniature jotter book.
All the details about the hotel are written in there,
something very different from other hotels which normally has their information booklets placed in their rooms.
What’s even nicer is that the book is SUPER CUTE!
(comes with a small red pencil too!)

Even the room card is also freaking cute.

Here are some pictures of the corridor to our room.
I like the fire extinguisher signs. Damn cute!

We booked a Whimsical Loft for the night.
There are actually 9 different lofts, all with different designs.
So anticipating which room we’ll get is also quite exciting.
And we… got the Typewriter Monster room!

It is really a super mega huge typewriter!
Need to type with your whole palm. Hahahaha!
The loft is super cool too. It’s like a metal frame which looks super industrial.
I like the whole look and feel of the whole room.
And hor, those of you who has houses with high ceiling can consider doing such metal frames too!
It doesn’t has to be attached to the walls and floor so you don’t have to apply for permit from HDB.
Ok, just saying. Heh!
Here are more pictures of the room.

Super love the basin with a matt finish!

There is also a coffee machine with different kinds of coffee for your selection.
I’m not a coffee fan so I’m not really excited.
A, on the other hand, was thrilled when she saw that!
Keep asking me to drink coffee. *face palm*
Oh! Complimentary chocolate chips cookies too.

This is my beloved runaway suitcase. LOVE!

Ok, something random – OUR TOE NAILS!
Mine is with the cool big toe, his name is Sart Sart because he is very sart.
And A’s is the pretty Bad Ronald. I know his name is pretty stupid.
It’s actually inspired by Ugly Betty. :p
I love the polka dot nails I did for A. She says it makes her toes look happy! Heh.

The runaway suitcase sits in a corner as we settle down and feed our grumbling tummies to some awesome takeaway food!
I love this stall at Perumal Road that sells 新化 (I don’t know if the got the characters right).
The fried bee hoon is TO DIE FOR!

More random photos. A watching TV from the bathtub. :p

And me writing in mirror image from inside of the bathroom.
Ahem, by the way I always thought it’s an incredible skill to be able to write smoothly (and quickly) in mirror image ok!

The bed is up on the loft area. :)

And my best friends to accompany me as I watch my Kampong Ties show on Channel 8.
HAHAHAHAHA!

I also wanna share some of the pretty clothes that arrived in my mailbox couple days ago.
Got a pretty pink dress from Jolieque that makes me look super sweet despite my super short crop! Heh.
Super BHB.

And also this brightly-colored top that made me smile the moment I tore the envelope apart.
I love the blue and orange!
It can be found on Closet Matterz in various colors.

I like the cute buttons on the shoulder!

And of course, my latest hairstyle!
Ok, this time it went a little too short.
I think I look like I just booked out. Hahahaha!
My Dad saw me right after my haircut that day and asked me why I “cut botak”. :x
I love it though!

Short hair also can act sexy ok. HAHAHA!

I also popped by A’s house for her Mom’s little cut cake ceremony on Saturday night.
Her family is damn cute.
They would gather around in the kitchen and have a cut cake ceremony for every single family member’s birthday.
Her Mom would bake a cake for each and every one of them too.
It’s her Mom’s birthday and none of them can bake, so we got one from Hotel Intercontinental. Heh!

And a family photo for them. :)
(Don’t know where Auntie is looking at)

Be back soon with more blog entries!
Goodnight friends.

This entry is way overdue but it’s better late than never! :p

I was SO excited when I heard that I’ll be part of the F1 Grand Prix weekend.
It was my first time watching the race live and it was really an exhilarating experience.
First and foremost, I want to extend my thanks to PROTON for the invitation. :)

I attended the PROTON roadshow on Friday night at Clarke Quay and
had the chance to check out the cars on display in close proximity, the Lotus-Renault Grand Prix showcar,
the Lotus Evora and the R3 Satria Neo.
Present at the roadshow were a couple of celebrities and PROTON Australia ambassador
and eye candy Miss Universe Australia, Scherri lee Biggs.
Awesomeness!

The Lotus Evora. Incredibly hot!

There was also this really interesting game there that really caught my attention.
This game is called Batak and it is supposedly
a game to train hand-eye coordination and reaction time.
The public was invited to try it and the average score that night, as I noticed, is about 50 odd.
According to what I found out from the organizers, the racers all clocked a minimum of 90 for their scores!
Super fast reaction!

Anyway, here is a video I found on Youtube so you can see how the Batak works.
This fella in this clip got some supersonic hands man!

And I didn’t play the game (scared I might score too little and be paiseh since it’s so crowded) Heh!

The next day, I was honoured to be invited to take a tour around the more exclusive area
where the racers chill and relax when they are not racing!
I also got the chance to walk around the pitstop areas and find out more about what goes on behind the scene.

And my VIP pass! :D

I can’t believe I was just sitting outside the rooms where the racers are doing their massages. Hahahaha.
I may sound bimbotic here but I think many F1 fans would kill to go where I went. :p
Anyway I peeped into one of the rooms and saw one of the racers being massaged. Hahaha!

These racers are all so young!
I think some of them are not even of legal age to rent a car! It’s amazing.

That’s Lotus Renault! Yeps, the highlight of my visit there was to take a look at the pitstop area.
That is like the most private areas there so I wasn’t allowed to take photos in there.
But it was really eye opening and I learnt a couple things about the engineering that went on behind these races.
I never knew there are so many types of tyres, and that they are all pre-warmed to about 90 over degrees C before the races
so that they can perform optimally.
And if you think watching the races would hurt your ears,
wait will you stand right next to the engines and hear them rave the engines up to test them.
Insane.

By the way, this are the nice PROTON and Lotus reps who brought me around that day.

Here are some of the tyres they use during wet weather.

And these are dry weather. How on earth can the cars stay on the ground at such high speed with tyres like that?!

It was such a great experience. And yes the banner here is right.
“Nothing else comes close”!

I was also invited to one amazing F1 party at 1 Altitude where
there is a whole line of Lotus sports cars along the main road just outside the club.
Everyone there were all dressed up immaculately and everything looks so posh and done up.
It was my first time to 1 Altitude and I actually lost my way as I was trying to get there.
But fortunately there were this two really friendly Swedish guys who led me there and they even got A into the party as well!

Awesomeness! This is A and I looking happy at the party. Hahaha.
It was really a great party and everyone there were all so friendly!

25th September 2011 – the actual day of the race!
I was given a seat at the Bay Grandstand where the view was spectacular
with the beautiful Marina Bay Sands and Arts Science Museum as backdrop.
Watching the race on the television and watching it live is such a different experience.
The raving of the engines, the screeching of the tyres, the exclamation of the crowds made everything exhilarating!

These are the two Malaysian bloggers who came to Singapore to cover the event.

I decided that I couldn’t just sit there throughout the 61 laps so I ventured out
and strolled around the vicinity in hopes of getting some pictures.
Unfortunately, my camera wasn’t good enough to snap a decent picture of the fast cars.

Most of the photos ended up like that. I can almost hear the “ZOOOOOOM!” when I look at the photos!
Hahahahaha!

All in all, I really had a good time even thought I was sweating buckets and had to walk so much.
It was really great to be part of this whole amazing F1 Grand Prix and big thanks to PROTON for the love!

I celebrated my 5th 21st birthday on the 6th of August with the few (but definitely enough) awesome people in my life.
They secretly booked a room in Naumi Hotel (& refused to let me know where I’ll be going until the very last minute)
and we had our little quiet gathering there.
The girls asked me to bring my passport along somemore. Basket.
And A packed my bag for me, and brought along a whole lot of long sleeve tops.
Faint.

BUT that said, I really appreciate the effort & I had a lot of fun.
BIG THANKS DARLINGS AND DEAR A! <3

Oh! Before I go on and talk about what we did in the hotel, here’s my awesome present from A again!
I’ve been looking at this bag on Net-a-porter for the longest time and she got it for me!
She tried keeping it a secret as well. Hahahahaha!
But just 1 day before my birthday, I wanted to go online and just buy it for myself.
She knew and totally FREAKED OUT!
HAHAHAHA! And confessed that she already bought it for me.
YAY! I win. :p

The present came early.
I LURVE IT! Thanks A!

A was the first one to wish me happy birthday.
She crept into the room at midnight with home made vanilla (my fave!) ice cream “cake”!

And made mee suah with egg for me for breakfast the next morning! It was SUPER YUMMY!

That’s A checking us in to the hotel.
The suite they got was totally fabulous.
Spacious and has everything we needed.
I love the bath tub! And I love the little partition between the living area and the bedroom. :)
Good choice, girls! Heh.

Ok that’s me trying to squeeze through the partition thing.
I’m too fat. Can’t get through.

I have been all over the place.
Within my virtual disappearance for almost 2 weeks, I have met some really wonderful and fun new people.
And also fostered better relationships with people who are already in my life.
Attended a couple company events and things are really nice with my colleagues. :)
There were also three Puma parties at Butterfactory, MBS and Old School respectively.
My office has also been officially relocated to Jurong from Buona Vista.

Alright, enough talking. Pictures time ok? :)
That’s us at the Puma Butterfactory Party!

I popped by the FHM 150th Anniversary party at Bar On 5 earlier this week.
What comes to your mind when I say “150th FHM Anniversary Party”?
I know – it must be HOT BABES, HUGE PARTY, SHITLOAD OF DRINKS SERVED BY SCANTILY CLAD CHICKS.
Well, there were none of the above at the party.

It was kinda like a quiet affair but thank God there was champagne.
The company I had was awesome. So I had some good quality fun.

I think I look more iron than the Ironman.
Mister Ironman also spilt some acid at his groin area – as you can see, the iron there is starting to corrode.
Whitish and stuff. Eeeeyerrr.
There was also Spiderboy and Wolverine.
I’m certain it wasn’t Spiderman because that Spidey was shorter than me.
I asked him why he’s so short. He said he didn’t drink enough milk.
Hahahahaha!!
Wolverine.. erm.. was Asian. Fail.

Here are the other more awesome people at the party. Hahaha!

The picture above shows me and Petrina.
Do you know that Petrina’s elder brother Colin’s band’s first album is now on sale at HMV and Gramophone?
Go grab King Kong Jane’s album! <3

We also made Ai Jia take part on this “sit on balloons and burst them” game
and she won herself a pair of funky headphones! :D
Basically, the night was just spent with us standing around sipping champagnes.
Here’s more pictures.

Under the influence of alcohol, we got ridiculously noisy and rowdy.
And… we started whoring ourselves by attempting to pose like the FHM cover girls. :x

And I don’t know what Farhan was up to in here…

Then this guy came along and he wants to bring the posters home.
So I told him he needed to pose for me before he’s allowed to bring it home. And he did!
Hahahaha. So game right!

And this random woman also. But she don’t know how to differentiate left and right.

I obviously did a better job lor. Hahaha!

Jason tried too. But he’s too man for this bullshit.

“I think I can’t do this guys…”

But the winning picture is definitely the one by… PETRINA!

ROAR!

I got absolutely no idea how or when this party streak started.
But this couple weeks has been totally fun to the brim for me – party after party, events after events.
I am glad to announce that I’m feeling like that 19 year old Peggy Chang again! :p

Rachie brought me and an entourage of babes to the Johnnie Walker event held at Red Dot Museum last Saturday.
It has been such a long time since I last hung out with Rachie and Michelle and I so miss them!
We have spent the craziest nights screaming out lungs out together in Phuture.
Hahahaha. I miss being irresponsible and days where I fought to stay sober enough by 4am to stumble home.
Heh! Very bad.
*Note to self: Being domesticated is good, pegs*

Anyways, I was saying how awesome this Johnnie Walker event is right?
Here are some pictures we snapped at the party!
I’m wearing this white gorgeous (and comfy though shapeless) shirtdress that I love!
Stupid Alvin Leong says it looks like PJs. Bitch. Hahaha.

Here is another random post to keep you guys occupied. :p
I snapped a couple pictures in office today because I wanted to share my lil work space with y’all.
I’m all decked in black today – black dress and black heels.
One can never go wrong with black!

I’ve got polaroids all around my computer screen – polaroids of people I love.
Those eyes are decoration from Halloween 2010. Heh!

My little water station.
I <3 yoga bottle from Sigg and the cup is from er.. Starbucks obviously. :p
I’m guilty. I haven’t been attending yoga lately!

The Beauty and the Beast figurine Buttons bought me.
He has bought me 4 in total already! :D

That’s me in my little black dress, curly brown hair and my pretty new bag from La Classic Style!
This bag can be a clutch or you can sling it over your shoulder too.
Small and pretty! :p

And I also have this little sign that spells out my blog URL!
This was actually the prop used in the video I made for King Kong Jane.

This band was formed in 2006 and my dear colleague Colin is the lead singer in there!
They have just launched their first official album and it’s totally awesome!

They will be touring around performing and the next stop would be for the Mosaic Music Festival at Esplanade!
19th March, Saturday!
I’ll be there to support so do head on down to support local music as well okay? :D

And just for laughs, here is the SUPER AUNTY side of me at the teaser video for KKJ’s new album.
The album is named “Waiting for Friday” so here’s me saying what I love about Fridays!

All my friends are laughing at me because of the “Freaking Famous Blogger” thing already.
Anyway, that was just a joke okay! I know I’m not freaking famous. Hahahaha!
Check out the other “Friday” videos on the King Kong Jane blog!

Another great week is over.
This week was spent seeing people laugh, cry, scream and throw up.

I had lunch at La Nonna with my colleagues again on Thursday.
The bargain queen in me appreciates and loves the 50% off lunchtime offer at La Nonna.
After the discounts, the prices of the pasta is about the same as that from Pasta Mania.
But the pasta here is so much better compared to the clumpy noodles from Pasta Mania.

My traffic-stopping coworkers.

Thursday was a great day also because I got to meet up with my beautiful old friends!
I also brought Jayne, Alvin and Herwin to the Puma party held at Blu Jaz, Bali Lane.
It has been a while since I last met the trio and they’re still looking pretty fabulous!

Me love free flow of alcohol! The only bad part was that it was a Thursday and not Friday.
Bleah!

It was the kickoff party to a series of parties Puma will be organizing.
The theme of the parties was “Over Hours Athletes” & that explains the table soccer and pingpong tables there.
My favourite after-hours activity though, will have to boozing. :p
And having awesome company is always the most important thing to having fun!
I think I’ve been deprived of good fun for too long. Haa!

Jayne is really pretty!

Went for supper feeling slightly “happy”. And I got upset with a grain of rice that got stuck on my hand.

I crawled my way back to work on Friday without much makeup (I’d used the makeup time to snooze). Heh!
It was the release of 2010 A Level Results and I need to be at NJC to cover the event for my company.
I was actually just supposed to be there and see see look look but I decided to be kaypo and help take some pics. :p
These students… are freaking smart lor!
And it was only NJC, I cannot imagine how things are like in places like RJC and HCI.
People can get 8 distinctions lor!
Got so many subjects to study in JC one meh!
I only took 3 during my time and it almost killed me already.

The most amazing thing is when I see people crying over grades like ABBB or AABB.
Wtf man.

The boss and my colleagues!

I also attended this little cosy gathering with Philips to try out their new headphones.
The venue was this place called the Book Club at Martin Road.
I love this place! It’s cosy and quiet, great for anyone who wants to spend some me-time with a cuppa hot chocolate.
This one is my first headphone! Thanks for the gift, Philips.
I also saw other familiar faces there like Beatrice, Esther, Ben and Randy.

I requested for the orange one. Pretty right!
The girls also prepared some other pretty accessories for us. How very thoughtful! <3

Yay, time to plug my headphones in and start crooning away!

Who can ever deny that girls just wanna look pretty and have fun all the time? :p
I went to the Whisper party organized by Nuffnang at Oosh last week and it was oh-so-fun!
Other than the other popular bloggers like Esther, Valerie and Nadia, we also met Paige Chua.
She’s gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. ♥
I look super dirty standing beside her and her porcelain-like flawless skin. :)
And my seriously charred and red skin isn’t helping at all. Bleah.

Before I start on this entry, allow me to rant on how frustrated I am right now!
I finished writing this fucking long blog post and posted it and
Wordpress happily told me that the posting wasn’t successful, and the entire entry got wiped out!
URGH! URGH! URGH! I hate you WordPress!!!

*takes deep breath, calm myself and coax myself to continue typing*

I have been all over the place this past week.
Other than the 9-to-5 work I do everyday in office, I’ve stolen some time to have nice dinners with Mom,
and also met up with Xuanwei again! :)
I also did a photoshoot for Puma for their upcoming Lookbook!
Let’s just start the post with some photos which I don’t know how to slot in anywhere else in this post. :p

This post is supposed to be up at least 20 days ago.
The girls, the “boyfriends” and me went over to the floating platform area on New Year’s Eve to kway shio.
It was super fun because it has been such a long time since I last felt like a teenager doing stupid things.
Here are some photos taken that night.
SORRY THIS POST CAME SO LATE! Hahahaha.

It’s my first official D&D at my very first job.
The theme was “Occupations Night” and it has got to be the most suitable for a company like JobsCentral.
I suggested to my colleagues that we should go as politicians, and they all agreed!
Thus, this is us!

This couple weeks have been totally mad mad fun for me!
I’ve been getting along real well with my colleagues and we’ve been having fun all over the place.
This time round, we got together and celebrated Halloween together!
Still remember that post I put up last week?
Have you guessed what I dressed up as already?

If you guessed “Pop Art Girl”, well then you’re right!

This a a post dedicated to all of my colleagues at one of our job event earlier this month.
I had a lot of fun and am proud to be part of the team! :D
My job is rather interesting because it allows me to help out in organizing of events as well.
Lots of hands on things to do and learn.
Reminds me of my “standing around” days in IT shows in the past,
except that I feel smarter and more important at these fairs now. Hee.

First up, allow me to introduce some of my awesome colleagues!
We went to take really slutty “Vogue” pictures in front of the backdrop. Hahaha!
Sadly, some are sluttier than the rest.

Here are random pictures of my colleagues and myself!

Kok bullying the other colleagues :p

I had my first “shop owner” experience at the Flea organized by Tee Boxx last weekend at Supperclub!
It was a really, really fun experience and I enjoyed myself tremendously at the flea.
Never knew it’s so fun to bargain with the customers. Hahaha!
That’s me on my way there. Look at the heaps of stuff we’ve brought along to sell.

Supperclub actually looks like a really big place at night already, but in the day, it becomes even bigger! :p
I was sponsored a pretty and spacious “bed stall”, courtesy of Tee Boxx. (Thanks guys!)
The space was enough for both Buttons and me to lay our stuff all over!
I brought a lot of my old clothes, shoes and bags and Buttons brought some of his Mom’s stuff to sell.
His mother got the cutest Hello Kitty stuff ever! <3

I made little signs for the stall and I think I did a great job! (Heh. A bit bhb)
This is my very own www.sixpegs.com stall! So fun!!

As most of you would already know by now, I’m currently working in JobsCentral.
We are actually the Official Job Partner at the Yellow Ribbon Run 2010, and wow, I’m really proud to be part of it.

It was the first time I set foot into the Changi Prison and it was quite an eye-opener for me to be honest.
I always thought the prison would be a very exciting and dangerous place,
where the offenders would sometimes go on strikes, or try to escape and stuff (too much Prison Break!)
On the contrary, it is actually a very peaceful and almost-too-depressing place to be in.
It made me feel very uncomfortable to be scrutinized by the officers at almost every checkpoint.
Well, but all that were necessary I guess.

I had to be at Changi Prison at 7am that day and it was really quite a feat for me to get up that early.
To make things worse, IT RAINED!
You know how SHIOK it is to sleep on rainy mornings or not. Sigh.

I was super tired that morning that I wore my shorts inside out all the way from home to the prison.
Super embarrassing.
Okay, that’s just some random throw face moments I had.

But now that after the entire event was over, I’m glad I was at least a small part of it.
It is somewhat encouraging and inspirational (amidst the occasional depressive moments)
to hear the voices of the offenders through the paintings they did.
Freedom is truly priceless.

I had a simple gathering with my closest friends over last weekend at Studio M Hotel.
The place looks really cool and I’m totally in love with the loft design in there.
But the bad part is, the room is really quite small. Ahem.
Nevertheless, I had a lot of fun there with my darling friends!! :D

Shall start with my pretty pictures before all the other ugly ones surface. Hahaha.
Everything in the room is small, except that light.
Good for taking closeup pics in front of the light (Okay, I did all that when I was bored and alone k)

As I have previously mentioned, I was on a company retreat on Superstar Virgo.
It was really quite enjoyable because it’s my first time on a cruise. :D
But on the other hand, felt a little sad that I’ll be away for the weekend.
Can’t hang out with Buttons, and I’ll miss Maliboo.
But well yeah, I went on the trip and I had a lot of fun with my colleagues! :)
