Gee, it was 2 days of cell recovery for me - Went for facial to remove all the leftover gunk from my badly clogged pores the day before and had a good hair trim just now. Anyway, I am so damn relieved as my photoshoot is finally over!
It was a long Monday for both Fat Boy and me. We woke up at 8am to wash up before popping by his house to get that white short which he felt was perfect for the photoshoot. We had a quick, but hearty breakfast of Ipoh chicken hor fan, 2 half-boiled Omega eggs, 2 slices of kaya toast and 2 cups of thick white coffee to kickstart the day.
I spent an hour and a half staring at the mirror while the makeup artist slapped on thick foundation, eye shadow, rouge and mascara on my face and tons of hairspray on my hair : (
(Nevertheless, I was very amazed to see the transformed me - I had double eyelids, zilch dark rings and my big pores were non-existent) Initially, I thought photoshooting was a simple affair. I was so damn wrong. We were at the mercy of the photographer, who was an eccentric guy who had this strange habit of sniggering : / We had to pose whatever he wanted us to and seriously, I had no idea how our pictures would turn out to be. Hahaha...
It was really tedious jumping in and out of 5 fanciful costumes and waiting for the makeup artist to perform her magic on my face and hair, which I knew was seriously dying. I had wanted to rip off that thick layer of compounded foundation and powder >: ( As if it was not bad enough, I had to experience wearing a damn heavy wedding gown with a 2 metre train while threading through a muddy pathway and overgrown grass. Besides that, I had to pose with a radiant and happy smile with commando mozzies buzzing around and waiting for a good opportunity to suck my blood >: ( (Fucking mozzies!) When I thought it was the end (which I was so bloody wrong), I had to pose in a dilapitated house with falling bricks (For beautiful effect later on) and on a plateau with overgrown grass (I was bitten by fucking ants and I couldn't even bend and scratch my legs!) By the time the photoshoot session was over, both Fat Boy and I were almost dead with mozzie and ant bites, dehydration and fatigue. We had a quick dinner at Old Town Cafe before going back to Singapore.
As for last Saturday, both Fat Boy and I went to Holiday Inn at Johor Bahru to have KFC for lunch before going to my usual nail parlour to have my manicure and pedicure. Dinner was at East Court in Jusco Tebrau - We had vinegar pig trotters, sweet and sour pork and onion omelette : ) We came back to Singapore and continued with the night at The Clinic. I was so happy to meet up with Adeline, Yam Gal, Isaac, Angie & Sunshine Boy! : D (I was kinda annoyed by Adeline's suitor, Leo, though. Perhaps I am too conservative. I found him too aggressive) As it was not so conducive to continue chatting with the loud music and empty beer bottles lying around, we headed to Tong Shui at Bugis where we met up with AK, Nicole and Istari : )
