It has been a busy, busy new year! Right as the year started I flew overseas for a short break. One of my destinations was Melbourne, which I must say far surpassed my expectations!

I always thought that Melbourne was exactly like Singapore, you know, busy, bustling with an international crowd, and mostly urban shopping. Well, I can't say that it isn't completely unlike Singapore, but I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the Australians and the spacious feel that one can hardly experience in our small island.

A pity I had left my camera charger in Singapore, and was unable to take as many pictures as I would have liked. Nevertheless, I had a fun and fruitful trip, and here I am now, back in Singapore.

It's been a great month so far, and right now I have been busy designing new items for Isetan Scotts and also helping a friend out with make up / styling for fashion shoots. The photographer played around with his camera and took some photos of me while waiting for the shoot =)

New items will be sent to Isetan Scotts tomorrow, don't miss them!

MERRY CHRISTMAS

2009-12-24T15:00:00.000+08:00

HERE'S WISHING EVERYONE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

I'm taking a break from all the mass fulfilling of Christmas orders plus sending out new items to TANGS VIVOCITY and ISETAN SCOTTS.

And I caught this cartoon while resting. =)

Don't you know a Squidward or came across a Squidward at least once in your life? The stubborn-I-don't-really-know-my-work-yet-act-like-i-do person?

Enjoy your pre-Christmas preparations, and I am going to start making more items for VIVOCITY because we are so very close to being sold out on the 5th day of event!!!! I am so very blessed this Christmas. =))))

Christmas 2009

"I'll rather do nothing and be HAPPY everyday than do something I know I don't LOVE." -Ashton Kutcher in What happens in Vegas

As we all know Christmas is just round the corner, I AM SO SO EXCITED FOR TOMORROW because we made HUGE plans for the bf's parents' christmas gift. I truly am thankful for the love the bf's parents have showered upon me. I am grateful for all the support they have given to me whenever Angelicious Creations is on the newspapers/ magazines, they are the first to keep the articles for me. And whenever I needed advise I know I can count on them. To show them my gratitude, I planned a HUGE surprise for them tomorrow. *****SUPER EXCITED*****

Happiness is embodied differently in different lives. One should never impose his or her definition of happiness upon others because not everyone wants the same things in life. To me, HAPPINESS is a sense of self-acceptance that I am different and special in God's eyes and embracing MY OWN LIFE. I don't like living the mundane life, I hate the idea of a 9-5 job, and I detest RUBs. I mean its suitable for most people but not for me. I am truly happy now. Life's truly good!!! Let me recount the major milestones this year. :)

I'm very proud of how big Angelicious Creations has grown, now with 3 designers behind the scene and retailing at Isetan, Tangs, and now selected to be part of 25 local designers in the upcoming Parco Next Next Department Store. Not to mention being featured in various magazines and newspapers, most notably in The New Paper, NEW YORK TIMES, i-Weekly and Lifestyle Magazine! Parco's fashion show was simply a blast and I greatly enjoyed preparing my show pieces which were greatly appreciated by the audience =) Being interviewed by Razor TV was a real experience! A BIG Thank You to everyone who came by to support me! There were so many of you and I am simply touched. =) =)

I also thank God for blessing me with creativity! I am proud to have single-handedly designed a new store's logo, played architect for a friend and designed his entire shop layout, and even designed from scratch a website in 3 days! While this may seem like a lot, I must admit that I really enjoyed it and it did not even feel tiresome. In fact I completed all these designs in less than the stipulated time! I'm so proud of myself. =)

Having said that, this year I have come across some travesties of fashion. Sometimes I do wonder how some people can consider themselves 'artistic' or 'aesthetically savvy' when they simply can't meet design deadlines time after time, design 'designs' in default computer fonts, wear the same clothing every day BUT in different colors, and have absolutely no sense of style. Perhaps boring is the trend for 2009 ;) but only for some people, I guess. These people also have friends who seem to have been bitten by their own dogs which, concluding by way of their owners' actions, must be suffering from rabies. Get this: They travel all the way from Australia and threaten random strangers with pouring acid on their faces. Wow! I mean, seriously?! >.<''' If this is what your church is teaching you, why don't you join my church? =)

S., I think you should get a mirror before freely passing out judgments upon others, or even suggesting surgery! I mean, if you were AT LEAST on the top 309857405867405974 of FHM's Hottest Girls, I think your opinion can be at least mildly considered.

Getting back to more worthy topics, I am very appreciative of the support and love that bf's parents have showered, or rather, RAINED DOWN upon me. Especially after clarifying all misunderstandings with bf. I feel so loved by my bf, his parents, my mentors, my furkids, my family, my very supportive customers, and generally EVERYONE AROUND ME!!!! Even Melody has graduated from Puppy Kindergarten but that story will come later. It has been a great year, albeit with small setbacks, but everyone of us has come out better for it. =)

Oh, and I did all these without having look like I aged at all, as I have been told numerous times on separate occasions. Even my regular dermatologist refuses to give me my first experience of Botox. =(

Sometimes I do feel like Superwoman! =) =) God has indeed blessed me with strength and showered me with His love. He has also taken my enemies and let me use them as my footstool. =)

Here's some photos to share :

BIG HUGS FROM THE ANGELICIOUS CREATIONS TEAM....

I need more drama serials....

2009-11-16T21:20:00.004+08:00

Because I'll be home bound for awhile. I am afraid of going out of the house for fear of contaminating / tearing / bruising my stitches. The doctor told me that I can go out of the house and work as per normal but I am super scared plus the whole area near the stitches is bruised.

HOW TO GO OUT LIKE THAT YOU TELL ME?

I looked at the doctor incredulously when he said at my last review 3 days after the op, "You can go to work already."

Me : "HOW TO?"

Doc : "Alot of my patients also go to work after the operation. But best to stay home rest la."

Me silently thinking to myself: "These people are seriously very pro lor. The bruising area measures around 9cm height by 6 cm wide. I'll go to work after the stitches are removed which is this wednesday. "

But I am still hard at work at home, busy designing and sending new items to ISETAN SCOTTS and TANGS ORCHARD. =)

I've also been trying to get a new PA. Those I have tried so far seriously is very problematic -- Whine about too much to do, having too little to do, whine about almost everything. KILL.ME.PLEASE!

Anyway, I have tons of photos on facebook. Too lazy to load here. Go check them out on FB k. =)

Hope

by Brian Quinn

When all about you is black with gloom,
And all you feel is pending doom.
When your bones are racked with grim despair -
When every breath is a gasp for air.
Keep on going, though you need to grope,
For around the bend is a ray of hope.

A ray of hope is perhaps all that's left,
As your will to live has been bereft.
You've lost it all, it's just no use!
You can end it all, you need no excuse.
But throw away that piece of rope,
And give yourself a chance of hope.

Just give yourself another day,
Brushing aside what your thoughts may say.
This is your life and you can make a new start,
By ignoring the brain - just follow the heart.
Taking baby steps in order to cope,
And minute by minute you'll build on your hope.

Build on your hope,. one day at a time,
Though the road be steep and hard to climb.
The hurts of the past - they should be dead.
The fears of the future are all in your head.
Just live in the present and refuse to mope
Your life will sparkle for you're living in hope.

A Whole New World - Aladdin

2009-10-14T11:10:00.000+08:00

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me.

Loyalty

2009-10-02T10:32:00.003+08:00

Even stray dogs are more loyal to their other half than humans sometimes. Remember the times when you felt betrayed, abandoned , cornered by stress? Was there someone who was loyal enough to stick through these difficult times?

Even a stray dog knows that till the end of time, they'll never leave their lovers side.

Happy National Day!!!

2009-08-07T12:06:00.005+08:00

Its the long weekend ahead and I'm sure many of you will be going on a mini holiday this weekend. I cannot leave SG for now because of the 2 little puppies, plus pages upon pages of backlog to complete. I am not whining because I am very excited to finish up the customisations and put smiles on brides-to-be. *crosses my fingers * I really hope they like what I have draft up for them. =)

As little as Melody is, she is one BIG HEADACHE!! She's very obedient and smart but she has a super weak stomach. When she was on Orijen dog food, she started having skin allergies. She was allergic to the high protein in the dog food. Our vet has switched her to Addiction dog food BUT now she is having diarrhea. OMG!!! If she doesn't improve soon, I'll have to switch to either BARF or Abady. Very stressful to handle this kinda food problems, its like you want the best for your child but do not know what is the best for them. The only good thing is that Melody is very very very obedient and does not kick up a fuss unlike some others. *cough my shih tzu cough* =p

Feeling tired after her first grooming session with
Bernard at Genpetstylist

Melody was such a good girl,
she posed for countless of photos with the groomer and
even kissed him. =)

Decals on my living room wall.... nice?! =)

Have a wonderful long weekend people!

Cheerios~
Jacqueline =)

Little Melody Speaks

2009-07-27T13:07:00.003+08:00

Hello Everyone,

Mummy is allowing me to blog again. She says that I am a very brave girl because I endured the painful jabs at the Vet and even kissed the doctor who jabbed me. =)

Last weekend, I also experienced my very first top knot and coat oiling. It was not very fun as I like my fur covering my eyes so that I can play peeka-boo!

With my top knot under wraps to prevent breakage.

Mummy asked to open my eyes bigger!!!
Big enough?!

Are you done? I'm sleepy.....

Mummy got a new hp as a surprise gift from Daddy.
I tried calling Daddy on the hp but everyone said that must charge battery.
What is battery?!

Mummy says that I have grown bigger.
I don't really think so, see I'm only 2x the length of a blackberry!

And while I was sniffing at the blackberry, Annabelle Jie Jie is snoring away.
While Baby is pretending to play dead so that mummy will shower her with more attention. =p

I'll be going to puppy kindergarten soon. Mummy says that one more month and I am ready to go to skool. How come I need to go to skool? I already know how to eat, sleep, play, shit, eat, sleep, play, pee.... what more do you need me to learn, Mummy?

This skool thing is all very confusing to me. Oh well....

Till the next time,
Little Melody

Updates

2009-07-18T22:46:00.005+08:00

This week has been a busy and fruitful week for me. I have launched a whole new collection at 2 places, if you are a fan of Angelicious Creations, you'll already know where the launches were at. =)

Baby and Annabelle just went for their annual blood test and all came out well. Melody is due for her 3rd jab which I have been delaying for almost 5 weeks because I wanted to build her immunity before her 3rd jab. Melody measures 15-16 cm head to tail now. She is very stubborn and only remembers how to sit still when food is displayed before the command is heard. *tsk tsk* lolx... Then there is the toilet training, and she is house broken. She is also a clean freak *coughocbcough* who wouldn't step on her pee and poo. Melody will bark whenever she shits so that we can clear it up asap. Yup, even Melody cannot stand her own shit! =p

A video to share (got this in my email) :

Hahaha...a super smart border collie!!!! =) =)

Enjoy your weekend people!

Obama

2009-07-09T23:54:00.002+08:00

As much as I love Obama, I am getting sick of the current market manipulation.

All I can say for now is : "Look before I leap."

These days have been spent designing lots of wedding customisations. WOW... so many happy brides!!!! =) =) =) I feel very happy for them and I truly hope the pieces come up nice in their wedding pics. =)

Shall go to bed now~

Weekly Bathing Session~

Baby enjoying her blow dry after her bath...
She's very obedient and she will turn to her sides and
allow the housekeeper to blow dry for her.
Very much unlike melody! =p

A cute little red ribbon to adorn her hair. =)

Baby will pose very willingly in front of the camera. =)

And one more....

"Ok, quit it!" -- Baby

And while everyone was busy fussing over Baby,
Annabelle is trying to escape to.....

Her bed!
"Ah... the wonders of life.... Zzzzzz....." -- Annabelle.

OR something really really different?????

The poodle style....

The spaniel style.....

Or something exotic? The elephant style....

Or the Brother Bear style....

Enjoy~

Feeling a little under the weather

2009-06-28T20:57:00.004+08:00

Mummy has been pretty sad lately because she tells me she misses my sister - Noelle. Noelle left mummy in 2007. I tried to kiss Mummy to cheer her up.

Noelle at 8 years old.

Anyway, I have also not been well lately. I have been having mild diarrhea for the last 2 days and tomorrow we'll be visiting the vet. The worst 3 letter word in my mini dictionary - V-E-T.

I am still getting used to Baby Jie Jie -- the queen of our pack. Baby Jie Jie can be very very offended when I try to kiss her, but I know she is a softie at heart. =)

Yawn~ I have to go to bed now because tomorrow we are going to the vet. I hope the nice doctor will not poke my butt. Good night everyone!

With lots of licks,
Little Melody

A little BARKLO from Little Melody....

2009-06-26T12:57:00.003+08:00

Hello everyone, mummy is allowing me to 'guest write' once in a while in her personal blog. So here goes....

I was napping on the sofa and Mummy decided to take a photo of me.
I have grown 4 cm so far and I am slightly longer than a pack of baby wipes. =)

Mummy doesn't allow me to play with my big sisters because she says that Annabelle jie jie might sit on me and squash me to 'death'. But I know Annabelle Jie Jie loves me very much.
I'm playing with my rubber duck, ain't she cute?

Nah I got bored with the rubber duckie and I'm upset that
I am still not allowed to play with my Annabelle Jie Jie.
*POUTS*

Mummy gave me my rubber bone to play with but
I would rather use it as a head rest.

Is it time for treats now? Its been AGESSSssss....

I think my sisters should be guest bloggers too, but maybe not because mummy says they sleep 18 hours a day. =p This is so fun I should do this more often!!

Signing off,
Little Melody *wagging her little tail*

ACM

2009-06-19T15:26:00.005+08:00

This past week has been massive trips to the hospital, and returning for more reviews and even more reviews. Its been SUPER hectic and stressful for me. The next review will be in early July - 3/07/09 to be exact.

Also, we went on another touristy trip the other day for me to unwind and gain inspirations. This round we went to ACM - The Asian Civilisations Museum.

Photos :

In my car on the way there, I'm not driving.
Opps... BUSTED!
I still do not know my way around from this new place. =p

Outside the museum with Sir Stamford Raffles.

Ah... the highlight of this trip. I liked how Kangxi ruled the empire in his time and so this was really why we went to the ACM. =)

A view of Empress place back in 1910.
I LOVE HISTORY, it has been my favourite subject since the secondary school days which was 10 years ago.
OMG..... =p
I especially love the old monuments, china history with its wartime "drama" and all the beautiful furniture in the olden days. =p

I was laughing my head off before posing for this photo. =p
Its the kua and a less drama piece is currently still in use during a chinese wedding. =)

Going down a long winding flight of stairs.

And that's a wrap. =)

Quote of the day :"Real elation is when you feel you could touch a star without standing on tiptoe." --Doug Larson

Have you found your star yet?! =)

p/s: I wanted to record this msn convo with a close friend.

Me : What will you name a black and silver mini schnauzer puppy?

MM : Nightmare.

Me : Wahaahhahahahahhaa....

And I continued laughing till tears were streaming down my face. =p

How has the last week been for me?!

2009-06-14T01:42:00.009+08:00

One, I've learnt to ignore excuses, MALICE and plain stupidity! (BUT MOSTLY IT IS OF THE LATTER.)

Two, ignore all the things THAT DO NOT MATTER OR ARE ALL MALICIOUS RUMORS FROM A DELUDED HUMAN! (Well, some people and their actions ARE EQUIVALENT to "THINGS" or they are simply deluded and, they simply cannot help it!) =) =) =)

Three, it is useful at times to receive feedback for greater self-awareness. But if those comments remain judging and permanent regardless of the changes we have made, then discard them as not useful. This is only possible if we truly know how we truly feel about ourselves. Remember the only person who can love and understand you most is YOURSELF!

Ask yourself these questions every time you hear something that makes you want to barf:
Do I love me? YES OF COURSE!
Am I proud of me? I am proud to be me. =)
Have I learnt something new? Yes of course, I am reminded time and again there is NO CURE FOR STUPIDITY!
What should you do when you feel upset? TELL YOURSELF WHATEVER... I have everything I could possibly want/need!

And that's all that matters. =) =)

Four, I live in gratitude. Each day can be a different experience with different customers, different inspirations and new activities. There's a time for me to learn. There's a time to be inspired by the beauty around me. There's a time for me to enjoy. There's a time to simply be relaxed and play with Baby / Annabelle and Melody. There's a time to love. There's a time for everything. And as for me, I would rather spend all my time BEING HAPPY AND POSITIVE!!!!

Five, I've learnt to truly flow. I set out with an intention for the amount of investing I would love to have each month and then I let it flow. When the time is right, I enjoy the abundance. When its the lull period, I enjoy the time to pause and do more research. For now, I have stop shorting. =)

Six, I've learnt THE TRUE POWER OF Choice.
On MSN the other day, PP was telling me the concept of a choice is just a choice. When you decide to take the right path over the left path, it is just a choice - plain and simple. No judgment is attached to the choice at all. I am grateful for all the opportunities that come my way and I am glad to choose some over others. =)

What about you? What have you learnt the past week? Has everything been going well for you?

Remember this old adage: "Don't worry be happy!" =) =)

Have a great weekend people!!!

Ciao~
