My Buddy Is The Best Make Up Artiste!

Congratulations to my buddy RIE! When she told me about her participating in the make-up competition, I was very sure and confident that she will WIN!

The competition was held at VivoCity and I rushed down to support her after work. It was boring at work but this was something I was looking forward to the whole day. When I arrived, I saw her mum and she asked me to join them…

Before the competition started, there was finger food served to all invited guest and yes, I was honored to be one of them… Woohoo!!! Shortly after the introduction by the organizers, the contestants were introduced individually with their models. I was really excited for Rie though I was very confident that she will win it.

They were given 30 minutes to finish up the eye make-up with a theme and I was really happy to watch how good my buddy did. The eye make-up she did for the model was fantastic and beautiful! She called it ‘The Ugly Duckling’… how cool yea…
There was a short session where the ART Director of Shu Uemura showed his version of the beauty art makeup while the organizers consolidate the results. Though I wasn’t there to witness her wining as I had to be home but when I saw her message informing me that she WON, I was overjoyed!!!

Congratulations my buddy!!! You GOT IT!!!! WOOHOO!!!

Boss’s Big SIXTY

Since the departure of my crazy boss, my department is blessed with a great boss whom we enjoyed working for. Someone who is considerate, kind and with a great sense of humor that never fail to create a friendly and stress free environment.

With that appreciation, we organized a dinner party for him at Spring Court which somehow surprised him. He was not aware that so many of us turned up for the dinner as he thought it was only planned by my department. We also included colleagues from another department.

When he arrived at Spring Court, he was really happy to see all of us welcoming him in the private room. We prepared the dinner menu for him in advance and most of the dishes were his favourites. With that, Linda had the honor to ‘tear’ the suckling pig apart so that we can enjoy the meat without any mess.
Half way through dinner, we presented him with his birthday card and gift. He was so happy to receive the Golden Peach from all of us. It symbolized good wishes and good health which is appropriate for elderly…
We had a small entertainment by Linda & Tanaka-san who was dancing away in the room with the MTV and some of us also joined in the dance… haahahahahaah

It was totally a crazy and fun dinner gathering! Happy Birthday Boss! Wishing you good health and God bless you always!
