Here we are again coming to the end of the year...

it only felt like yesterday when i was writing a very similiar post,
i can still remember welcoming the year 2009...

This year has gone by extremely fast,
and it doesnt feel like it's been a whole year already since 2008!

I know what you're thinking...your thinking ''she's going to write about all the things
thats happened during this year....going to be some long essay'' right?? haha...
Well your in for a surprise! because that is NOT what you'll be getting.. :)

normally i would write an entry about what has happened during the year...
but seeing as i do that every year, im going to leave it out this time,
writing the same sort of stuff can get boring and im sure people will think
'oh, its one of those entries again...' as soon as they start reading...
(sorry to those who actually want to read it lol, lately time has been my worst enemy, because i just cant seem to get enough of it.. hence
the absence of regular updating like i used to...sorry!)

in 2009, i can say i've achieved quite alot...
and hopefully i will achieve even more in 2010!

I always wonder what the coming year will bring me...
good fortune? luck? money? love?...
ah well...we'll have to see i guess . so far though...
2008 has still been the best year for me.

here i'd just like to wish everyone...

'A very Merry Christmas
& A Happy New Year! May 2010 be a great year for everyone!'

Lets welcome this new year with open arms

P.S. I CANT WAIT TILL CHRISTMAS DAY THIS YEAR!! Which is only 2 days away!
haha....

Its been snowing heavily the last few days!!

yummy dinner :)

Christmas Baking ...hehe

Hot crispy Sausage rolls

Mini Ateable Glitter fruit and raisin pies...

Got an exciting shoot on the 11th January...hehe..cant wait!

"It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them...''

like most of the times i have thoughts to think about when im not doing much...
and for this week..this thought has been circling my head for some days now..
People always say friends come and go, the ones which are still there at the end of everything are those worthy of a true friendship...

i always knew friends come and go according to time, for instance you can be really close 'friends' with someone for a few days, few months, few years even, but when something sudden occurs.. that is when your friendship is put to the ultimate test.

There are normally only two possiblities of how it can turn out, you either overcome this obstacle together and become even more stronger friends, OR that 'friendship' evaporates just like some sort of steam.

all the good times they've had and the stuff they did,it doesnt nesscessarily mean they are going to stay the same forever, things that they have said can mean nothing...like the weather, people can change aswell. Just like that.

On the contrary, you might lose friends but find that you have others who will always be there supporting you regardless of anything and asking for nothing in return but only a true friendship.

This is where we can distinguish the differences between accquintances, normal friends, close friends, and best friends.

There are ones who will ride through storms and blizzards with you, no matter through thick or thin you will still see their faces at the end of every storm, their smiles telling you that they will always be there for you, catching you when you fall. Always.
Its like some sort of unbreakable force that links you together.

It doesnt matter that you havent seen them in months, in years even, but just a phone call can get them come running to your aid. You cant see this friendship, but you can always feel it and it will always be there.

This friendship can not be broken by anything, no matter what happens its like its being held together by steel ropes...unbreakable. Whereas some can be broken with the smallest storm...or stone...that is where the difference is.

"True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation."

im blessed with such wonderful friends i cant thank god enough, this one particular friend is not just any friend you can pick off the streets, and i cant ask for a more understanding friend.

"My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me." -
and for that i have to thank her.

its weird to think i will do anything for this friend right now...anything.

Human Snow globe!

Saw these really cute hats! This is the Girl Verson with the big weird eyes,
and the original boy version with the normal panda eyes (below), after alot of
trying on, we decided to go with the boy version...

Must have...So cute!

There are two ways of wearing the hat, the normal way...

and the not so normal way...haha

P.S. bumped in to a friend last night when we were out who i havent seen in like 2 years...something she told me made me think back to all the rumours
that has been spreading for quite a while now, it got me kind of annoyed again after hearing it but then again this aint the first time.

I'd just like to quote from a friend...

''the shit you hear about me might be true but then again, it could be as fake as the bitch who told you..''

its funny how she said this person has probably told and showed everyone something about a certain individual and me (they obviously showed it to my friend), and on instance seeing my photo my friend said ''I KNOW HER!''...here i'd like to tell the person who is spreading rumours about me, that you would probably not have thought the friend you told is also my friend, and what was said will always find its way back to its seed.

After hearing this, i was half speechless...for one, i did not say or confirmed anything about this, yet this person is going around showing people photos of me AND spreading rumours thats not even their own business.

You must really have an awful lot of time on your hands...

you know, if they have a photo of me, (or photos) it most probably mean that they are one of my 'friends'...here again i can relate to what i said above, i can see these 'friends' are only true to a certain extent, and i have an urge to find out who this might be...

In my defence, my friend said to other people and me ''They probably only said it because they are jealous and want to be you.''

but for me, THAT is not an excuse to go around spreading rumours.
People really need to grow up and mind their own business.

The past weekend has been a great one,
Eventhough our 24 hour thing didnt go according to plan,
it was still a pretty (or should i say very..) crazy night.. lol
What happened that night i guess are only known to those who were there..Steve,
Ed, Trace, Mich, Kay, Thai, Gary, and a few new friends..
haha...
We had dinner, drinking at the usual Lloyds, then karaoke till morning,
then back to ours again for more after party lol

Then the next day (with only roughly 4 hours sleep)..me and T went to Poon's Birthday,
Dinner, Club @ Departure Lounge which was a treck-ish...
The music wasnt bad, i would have danced if i wasnt falling half asleep and my body was screaming for a bed..
lol...then went back to the hotel again and fell asleep straight away till morning. :p

Before we got totally Krunked....i didnt take any pics in Karaoke and after..guess i was having too much fun
hahaha.,..

Poon's Birthday!

Finally a day to relax and the weather turned from sunny hot to cold windy and rainy!
The weather should be better by tomorrow but unfortunately im working...

Anyways, the Job last week was an eventful one i must say, firstly we trecked all the way up
the hill to this huge massive countryside-looking park down hamstead heath, walking up the hill was
proving to be kind of difficult since it was very bumpy and pebblely..after all the effort we managed to get to the top of the hill which over looked London...and i tell you the view was AMAZING.

You can literally see all of london's tall buildings, and just make out where everything is, not to mention the amount of fresh air blowing in your face. We rested for abit to catch our breath back from walking up the hill (which took about 20 minutes i think).. and when everyone was ready we looked for a nice spot to put our stuff down and get ready for the shoot.

Walking around with heels on isnt a good idea on bumpy ground let alone it was on a HILL! There was a few times when i nearly fell from stepping on uneven ground, luckily the photographer and my assistant was holding my arm so i didnt actually fell...now that would have been embarassing...
But then again it wasnt my idea to shoot a wild nature theme in the first place..

The photographer wanted me to sit in this flower bush, it sounds lovely and all but i'd hate to think all the insects i was sitting next to..or more like on top of! lol...But being the professional person i am and all, i sat nicely there for a good 5 to10 minutes or so without showing the slightest bit of uncomfortable ( i was being poked in all sorts of places by these rough and long grass)

(sneeky peek of some photos)

Then we moved to another bit of grass, (Simon the photographer said that patch is B-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l and we have to do something with it to include it on the photo) So what does he make me do..lets Lie on it. Yep and that was pretty funny because when i was lying there, there was this bee that just wont leave me alone, so the assitant and the make up artist had to fan it away literally over my head ..lol Great fun.

Changing in to the second outfit was hilarious, they had to hold up a few big white sheets to cover me from being seen, and i was inside the sheets getting changed with my stylist lol.

Sneaky peek...

The shoot on the hill took about 3 hours, then we all went back down the hill back to the studio in central London and continue the second part of the shoot.
No surprises there when Simon made me lie down again on the backdrop lol, I was lying down alot for the shoot actually now i come to think of it...

Lying down...again..

It was a long day and by the end of the evening i was knacked and tired, fell straight to sleep on my bed when i got home.

I must say, the clothes i got to keep was really nice, especially the Dress.

Sorry havn't had the time to update these days, im either working or busy, or im out, hardly get the time to catch my own breath! lol

Anyways started my new Job down Piccadilly Circus at LW, i must say i was half hoping i wouldn't get it but then again im so bored when i have nothing to do at home, so i guess im better off doing something. On my first day however, i wanted to quit. lol..and im still thinking about it at the moment.

Apart from the odd Job here and there, i've got another one lined up soon but im not allowed to say what it is yet till the time is right..

My wifey came back from Holiday a few days ago and i really didnt expect any souveniers till she told me via text in italy, i was just hoping she'll have a nice time and come back soon, but she got me quite alot of souveniers! lol Ofc i loved them all and i was wearing one of them today to work aswell haha, and the thing was she got something for my mum too and my mum goes ''YY can so be my second daughter....'' lol...

Work is so long nowadays, working either 9 hours with an hour lunch or at least 5 hours without break...and im ever so tired when i get home now i just KO and wake up early again for work the next day, time feels like its going so fast atm..week by week im like ''what did i do this week??''..

Got work at 12.30 - 10.30pm tomorrow.
