Rehearsal Day - AFA Marble Wonderland 2013

Hello~

As some of you might know, I was very lucky to get selected to participant in this year Afa Marble Wonderland Fashion Show as one of the models (●´∀`●). So, we were asked to meet up at the Asia Kawaii Way booth a day before Afa for rehearsal.

This is how the booth looked like after set up. 
かわいいでしょ ヾ(☆▽☆)??



They sold a wide variety of Japanese make-up products like Dollywink, Priscilla Wigs and many more~




Then we were given our AFA access pass...

The pass is super cool!!
With it, we got full access around AFA anywhere and any time like a boss (/^▽^)/ !! Hehe!!




Sneak peak of the stage that we will be performing.
They were in the process of setting it up back then ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ .




Backstage, they showed us to our outfits for fitting...

This is how the outfit chart looks like for the planning of looks for each models...
Can you spot me ( ゚з゚)



After I was done with the fitting of my assigned outfit, which I will show you in my next post, it's time to do my hair~!

Yeah~!
They gave me a lavender colored wig!!
It's such a lovely color  (⌒▽⌒)...



Sneak peak of how the wig looks on me...
I really like the wig a lot! The hairstylist cut and styled it to make it looked so lovely (ノ゚0゚)ノ ~ Though I like to see girls with lightt hair color, I am never a fan of having brightly colored hair on myself as I don't think I can carry it well ( *___*).



Still, I did try my best for the show!!
I was allocated to the Tokyo Kawaii stage, and most of the models on that theme were given pretty gloves, wands, headbands, and a beautiful pair of WINGS (*≧▽≦)~!! Yes!! WINGS!!! I didn't think that I will be given wings for the show and I was so happy when they gave me one as it reminded me of the prestigious Victoria Secrets fashion show. それはとてもすごいね~!! However, ours are a lot smaller yet way more adorable as compared to VS. I still love those wings nevertheless (´∀`)♡!!




While waiting for our rehearsal to begin, I took many photos with the other SG models that were selected for Marble.

The very pretty Reiee who was on stage for the Shibuya Style~


She looks like a Korean model huh (~ ̄▽ ̄)~? I think she's the kind of model who can wear any clothes and make them look chic! On the side note, she likes to take self-shots of herself with my costume accessories like my yellow gloves, wand, and headband o(≧o≦)o. So, whenever I couldn't find one of my gloves, I knew who to look for hurrr~...



Here's the forever cool-looking Slaye Doll who was assigned to the Harajuku Sea Punk Style!! I only manage to show you guys one photo with her because the rest of the photos we took together were somehow blurry that day (っ﹏-) . This girl actually looks really sweet when she smiles despite her cool appearance. Should smile more huh (*≧▽≦)ノ~!!



Lastly, the 'I-am-so-kawaii', Vivian-chan (ノ≧∀≦)ノ!!

She really got that baby girl face that always make me go "awww~ she's so cute~", which we didn't understand why they put her on the FIG&VIPER theme. We agreed that Vivian and Slaye Doll should exchange roles but sadly, that didn't happen lol. Nevertheless, she still tried her best to appear fierce on the show
 . Good job, girl~  ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ!!




Immediately after my rehearsal, I met up with my dear who waited for me for more than an hour after his work ('∀'●)♡.

We had a quick bite at PapaRich as I was feeling very hungry after all the fitting and walking~



My very yummy honey toast~!!



And his sweet icy dessert (*≧▽≦)...


But the dessert is not as sweet as him ლ(´ڡ`ლ)... 
See what he bought for me while he was waiting~!!



かわいいでしょ \(@ ̄∇ ̄@)/??!!
What a cuteeeee~ blanket nehh~!!! It's really comfortable and warm too!! I get cold pretty easily whenever I am at home using my laptop which is why he got this for me. So thoughtful of him huh o(≧∇≦o)?  Even though I wouldn't have allowed him to buy it if I were there with him as the blanket cost $30! To me, it's too pricey for a small blanket, but he never listens, and always spoiling me with cute gifts like this ≧△≦ 


Anyway, I will post the next AFA Marble Wonderland Fashion Show shortly  (I hope) with more photo of the event and Japanese models~!!

♔ Thanks for reading and see you

His Birthday and Our 3rd Year Together

Hello~

This month was my dear's birthday and our 3rd anniversary together. Omg! How time flies (/^▽^)/ ~ So, to celebrate his birthday, once again, I decided to go luxurious ヾ(☆▽☆) . For his every birthday, I pampered him with luxury because he's forever super generous with mine and I think a perfect boyfriend like him deserves the best comfort and celebration (≧∇≦)/.

Presenting the hotel that I have picked for him...

The Equarius Hotel in Sentosa ◕ ‿◕

It's located further away from the other resort world hotels.

As it's part of the beach villas, the whole hotel is surrounded by greenery and is very quiet ^-^.

As you enter...

You will see this very beautiful view (*≧▽≦)ノ!!  美しい~
Here's the grand hallway to our room...
FYI, it's a very long walk o(≧o≦)o

We are going in \(//∇//)\!

Our first glimpse...

It's super big!! I think this is, by far, the biggest hotel room we had ever stayed hehe ( ・∀・)


すごい!!


More views of the room...

And here comes the best part...
The room comes with a private yard!!

And the space is as big as the room hehe (/^▽^)/!! 

Not forgetting...

Our own private pool just outside the yard ^0^!!

素晴らしいね!!!
Hard to believe that there's such a fantastic hotel in Singapore huh? Many of my friends thought I was overseas when I posted the videos of our room on instragram ^-^!!

The ambient in the night was awesome too~ even though my camera didn't get a good resolution of the place... So sorry about that (///д//).

And did I mention that you can view the washroom through the bedroom?

Not much privacy...

...but it looks pretty cool and classy at the same time >‿<


Don't you wish to wash up every morning in a washroom as beautiful as this?

There's no need to fight for space when you have a washroom this huge too ^o^/!!

With an exceptionally big and deep bathtub that is meant for a couple to soak in (๑¯▿¯๑)...
It's really the biggest bathtub that I have taken a bubble bath in hehe~

The hotel is very generous with their toiletries too...

(^▽^) 
Anyway, we spent most of our time in the room as we love it so much~!!


Here's my dear watching TV like a boss!

While I got busy taking an OOTD photo to send to my good friends, Denise and Pei ting, who requested to see my dress ヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ~


Many of my friends have approached me to ask how much I've paid for the room. Actually, it wasn't my plan to stay in this exclusive VIP room that comes with a private yard and pool as it costs over S$2000 (excluding tax and service) for a single night ≧△≦. The room that I planned for cost S$700+, but the hotel was so kind to give us a free upgrade as I booked it on my dear's birthday (´∀`)♡

They even made a complimentary birthday cake for him~!!
So thoughtful of them~! The cake taste really delicious too ^-^!!
(Photo credited to my dear)

And not forgetting...
A birthday card with all the staffs' signatures hehe~! So sweet of them too o(≧▽≦)o !!

Finally, my birthday gift for him...

An Armaggeddon gaming mouse and mouse pad~
I wanted to get for him a Razor mouse but he chose this one instead as he didn't want me to spend so much for his birthday  ≧△≦. 

Yet, he went ahead and got for me...

A brand new laptop from Dell (ノTДT) )!!! OMG!!!

It's the thinnest and lightest 15.6 inch dell laptop with a blazing speed of 3rd gen Intel® Core™ i5 (3M Cache, up to 3.2 GHz) processor and NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 630M 2GB DDR3 graphic spec which I can play any high spec game without any problem ヾ(☆▽☆)

Hello Window 8~ (ノ´∀`*)ノ!!! 

Hello to my new keyboard~!! I can finally typed without having to deal with the malfunctioning issue of the keys. バンザイ \(//∇//)\!!
My old laptop has so many hardware problem-- rusty sound system, detached screen, and broken keys, but I couldn't bare to get myself a new one as the main software was still working perfectly fine for me. 
So, I was so surprised and touched when my dear bought it for me ≧△≦!! He's so good at pampering me and a genius in making me happy (≧∇≦)/. I'm really blessed to have a perfect boyfriend who always put me first in his life. 

The only photo that we took together at the hotel ヾ(´▽`;)ゝ
For those who are closed to me, they would know that I'm his first girlfriend. I was really surprised because I initially thought he was a playboy as he's quite popular with the girls during his college and university years. So, when I learnt that he doesn't have a girlfriend before, I looked at his handsome face and thought, he must be gay ( ꒪Д꒪)ノ. Haha!! But it turns out, he's so perfectly straight that, if possible, he prefers not to have any physical contact with any guys he knows lol. After I got to understand him better, I found out that he's very serious when it comes to relationship and he wants his first girlfriend to be his first and only love in his life ('∀'●)♡. Awww~~!! 
At that time, I realized I hit the Jackpot (*≧▽≦)ノ!! 
Ding! Ding! Ding!
He's really a man of his word because he has proven many times that putting me second is never an option for him (´∀`)♡. 

Going to end the post with a pretty old photo we took two years ago ( ≧◡≦) 
I hope he enjoyed the birthday celebration that I planned for him this year, and I wish to celebrate all of his birthdays together for another 80 years to come~ (ノ≧∀≦)ノ!! We will be so very old then hehe!

❤ Let's grow old together!! 

Loving you,
 Ashley
