Mondays style copy: Auburn La La La and lyrics


Heard this song on youtube by Auburn called La La La... I'm copying her all-denim-outfit in the video that should look so 1980s but somehow works on her. 


Can't even hang out with friends
Wit out ya blowin up my phone
Why you all in my ear
Like where am I and when am I coming home
Why you listening to your friends? They dont wanna see us be.

Boy You better take it slow
Or i'll be history
You've got to give me my space
So quick to calling my name
Boy you better recognize
My love is one of a kind
You drive me up to the ceiling
Boy there's no need for the screaming you know that you are my world
But im sick and tired of the

La La La La La La La La
That's all I hear you saying
La La La La La La La La Tired of the Complaining
La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La

So why you up in my ear?
So I went out to club
I just wanna have some fun
I guess someone told you
I was with some other boy
Cause when I got back home
Put my foot through the door
All the lights came on
Then came the LA La La La
You've got to give me my space

So quick to calling my name
Boy you better recognize
My love is one of a kind
You drive me up to the ceiling

Boy there's no need for the screaming
You know that you are my world
But im sick and tired of the
La La La La La La La La
That's all I hear you saying
La La La La La La La La
Tired of the Complaining
La La La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La



lesson to learn from this song: don't be too possessive in a relationship or someone will feel suffocated.

epic photoshop

hahaha another disastrous photoshop product made by Lim Shuyan
disclaimer: the desired outcome was to look pasted into the photo but apparently the trees are too big.
seems i need better planning in terms of background and picture.

decided to take out my big black hat by Ted Baker that hasn't been worn yet. Was inspired by a picture of a model at the Big Ben clock. unable to get a decent photo of the clock itself, i tried to improvise.

You got to give me an A for effort. seems like photoshop needs a bit of figuring out

bling bag

i like this bag but it's a gift for a family friend so it would be really wrong to use it first and give it away after. so the best i can do is to use it in a photo. i love how it's bling-ed and gives the outfit a bit of a rock look

start of a long weekend

started my friday by accidentally removing all the songs on my ipod before i had to go to holland village. But at least i can brighten the gloomy rainy day with a bright winnie-the-pooh umbrella ! managed to catch a picture before being late for my appointment with mom.


TRANSFORMING YOUR DAY OUTFIT INTO A NIGHT ONE

Using the same dress, heels and handbag i turn a day look on the left into a night look on the right. the picture on the right is edited using <a href="http://www.picnik.com">picnik</a>

A fun bright outfit in the day can be easily turned into a chic look for a night out on the town !
See how i change my hairstyle to something more sleek and classy for a night out then layer the pink dress with a black skirt and a chunky black necklace in the style of Lady Gaga. Finish the look by holding my handbag as a clutch.
 Sven Vath is playing at Zouk. highly recommended by Simin's German friends

Inspiration, motivation, and no more constipation

Finally feel alive again after 5 months 
Thanks to the people around me who have helped me feel motivated and inspired with their love and commitment to living everyday to the fullest. 
We seem to take for granted the times when we enjoy ourselves so much that the days pass by so quickly but when the tables turn and we feel stuck in a rut, each hour passes so slowly. Why do we remember unbearable, depressing times more strongly than the good times. 
I want to be more appreciative and grateful for each day I live beautifully inspired and filled with happiness.    

Went to canele's  today for cakes sorry to say the chocolate ones looked better than the taste but i like my selections of rose macaroon with strawberry and rose jam and strawberry shortcake.

casual chillin day in JB City Square

Went to JB with sis and mattin today :) my first time travelling there alone (meaning without my lovely parents). the journey was surprisingly fast and we cleared customs like a breeze. Discovered a new bus (CW1) to take from Kranji MRT. it only costs 80cents to have a comfortable ride with practically the whole bus to ourselves. no squeezing and jostling on 160/170

managed to buy cheap things there like a new lipstick case for mom at only 6.90 Ringgit and old issues of ViVi magazines at 6Ringgit. lots of new inspiration from the photos inside.

spent a bomb on new makeup

2nd floor of Chevron House while waiting for Mom to finish work. I LOVE this new brown leather bag ! looks elegant and classy and i really like the buckle. Favourite bag for today- which is why i carried it out.
Got slightly carried away buying makeup today (although i spent within my budget).
Managed to get a 112 eye shadow palette for $25.90 !! really pleased with my good bargain :)
I must commend the staff at SASA for introducing me new products. I was sucked in by their knowledge and picked up new foundation and mascara along with a few makeup brushes, shimmer eye shadow and cosmetic glitter. Small items have a magical way of adding up so the bill suddenly balloons when they calculate the total cost at the cashier.

Can't wait to play with my new 'toys' !!

wii has a new home

went to daniel's house to play wii today. his custom-built chair really is very comfortable and his boxes are really cool :)

had mos burger for lunch. they now have a smart new way of ordering where you choose the burger for a price and add on the set for a set price. chua chu kang really is very far away. went to Lot 1 and bought 2 black wii controllers yay they look really nice and the games we chose were super fun !

sentosa frisbee and volleyball

spent the day at sentosa today. so shag from running around picking up the frisbee and playing volleyball (in a small circle).

saw super cute bunnies today at an exhibition at harbourfront shopping centre. i realised it was related to chinese new year celebrations because it is the year of the rabbit.

new hair cut

went to shunji matsuo on wednesday
didn't even know they shifted to hereen

anyway epic story:
receptionist: please sit here while i call Chie
Shuyan sits for half an hour only to receive a phone call
receptionist on the phone: Hi Miss Lim, you have an appointment at 4.30 where are you now?
Shuyan: I am already here. Have been sitting here for half an hour


alot of people seem to like my new hairstyle. fresh seems to be the word. i was looking through my pictures on facebook while downloading the nice ones onto my ipad and i realised i've had the same hairstyle since year 2 Uni. really needed the change.

next step : lighten hair color !

New year !! First Monday of 2011

No longer working at the airport
No more queuing to change airport pass, fearing I'm gonna be late.
New year new life new choices

New companion: new iPad:)
Maybe I should give it a name

So here I am typing this blog post with my new iPad. I resolve to use this piece of technology to do useful things like blog and type articles. My iPad is a money making machine!!
