'J' in da house

Dear Diary,


“J” was in town on July 21st so thrilled and counting down when the date drew closer (Finally!!!)

HE arrived in Singapore at 12.19pm flight with his mum when a lot of fans were already waiting for him at the airport. Coincidentally I had my lunch @Changi on that day and saw lots of people carried his poster and welcome banner. It wasn’t as many people as the last time J came to Singapore (they said). He appeared with a black top and shades afterwards they made their way to hotel (Swisshotel Stamford).

It was not easy to get the ticket as the tickets sell like hot cakes and always sold out. Feel upset and disappointed initially as attempted getting the tickets for the past 2 years.
Shorten the story. . . managed getting the ticket @CAT1, July 24th - Indoor Stadium Yoohoooo! … OMG!!! Unbelievable I can see his LIVE performance, have been waiting and longing for this moment. Thank God for Your incredible blessings and make one of my dreams comes to pass.

One thing I admire about him is his talent in music. He is talented! He can sing, writing songs and mastering different instruments (esp. piano & guitar). For me his song and voice has its charms with the “X” character. Haha!

I was sitting at the 5th row of CAT1, at the first I don’t have idea how close is CAT1 seat… when I stepped in… WOW! Is a front row seat (VIP)… I can see him close up… so near yet so far… haha! The people sitting beside me came alone so we chatted, made friend and “high” together thru out the concert. The most exhilarating part: he went down to the front seats and to greet the fans. . . Yoohooo!!!I’m on of the “lucky” audience, really made my night complete.

Here’s a glimpse of J’Concert :
It was a night of non-stop screaming, cheering and jumping. Going by the stage display, every part of the concert had undoubtedly been planned well. The concert is celebrating his 10 years in singing and songwriting. Songs fuse R&B, rock and pop genres and cover subjects from tender love to domestic violence and war. Meaningful, emotionally – rich lyrics, hits right at the heart and has solidified his status as a pioneer and a unique performer. The special 3D effects were a big feature of the package. There’re multiple costume changes with excitingly choreographed dance routine. Its real move audiences and get us on our feet (make me standing and jumping for two and a half hours) – salute

Launching of Diary & Design: A Wedding Story

[WRITEUP @240710]
Dear Diary,


I’m so excited and thrilled to share and announce the launching of “Diary & Design: A Wedding Story”. I have been longing for this moment and finally it comes to pass. Thank God for His amazing grace and blessings [Out of Your Hands: into My Heart – this song is dedicated to you]

I've been doing wedding planning and coordination for the past 2 years as a freelancer [formerly l’s Wedding Diary]. Beginning of April 2010, I have a thought of developing this into something unique but yet full of romance and stylist. As I always believe every wedding is like a thumbprint and should has its own character and charms. Every couple deserves a beautiful wedding that represent their love regardless of budget.

“Diary & Design: A Wedding Story” was born from a marriage of ideas by myself and Hellen. We decided to marry our 'gifted' in design and planning as we found out that both of us are sharing the same passion (in weddings) but with different approach. I love beautiful things and has an incisive eye towards beauty, fun and creativity while utilizing the power of design (from talented amazing designer Hellen) to capture and conceptualize the theme and design to turn couples dream wedding into reality. It is embraced the entire wedding story from design, planning, and set pieces to managing and coordinating every details of the special day.

To be honest my passion was ever being tested by all the details and uniqueness of each individual couple (that what God created us) BUT when I see the bride walk down the aisle . . . smile on the happy couple face . . . tears of joy & happiness in their eyes and family members . . . seeing their efforts memorizing the wedding vow till the night before the wedding day . . . how the groom wants to do something special / surprise items for his wife-to-be . . . how they pledged their love and the list goes on and on... Since then, I know and I know that I have already fall in love . . . with ‘them’.

Our desire is for couples to have a beautiful, memorable, money saving and stress free wedding. Couple should enjoy this once in a life time journey, every moments and steps of their wedding preparations. This is a perfect moment to be remembered forever!
