Is it considered cognitive dissonance if, for example, I don’t like this person because he’s very irritating and I’m always thinking unkind thoughts about him although I don’t show it outwardly and just try to avoid him, but then he goes and does a nice thing like send me flowers when I’m sick, causing me to feel majorly guilty and wondering if I should try to stop disliking him?
I love this song.
Her Name is Alice (soundtrack from Alice in Wonderland)
(Click for YouTube video.)
I told my singing teacher I seldom listen to music because the songs I like (usually melancholic melodies) depress me. Yet, I can’t stop playing this track over and over.
I had a conversation with myself this morning when the alarm woke me up at 10 am. (Another vain attempt to normalise my bio clock.)
“Sleepy. Wanna sleep somemore. Zzz.”
“Ooh but 10am. Can order Macs breakfast!”
“Do I feel like eating Macs breakfast today?”
“Hotcakes and sausages!”
“I think I feel more like a Big Mac and fries.”
“Ok fine go back to sleep.”
Yay! Just found Jolly Shandy Lychee (which is rarer than Peach) at Cold Storage. Love! Jolly Shandy makes me jolly! =)

@Sheylara: Hmm… this week’s post should be called BBF then (Beach Babe Friday):) Thanks for the facial care tip! Is it part of an upcoming advertorial?:)
i saw your garnier ad online, you look good! :D
@Sheylara: Yes, I know and feel your pain, because I’ve done it before. Video editing, yes, it’s a pain… on Windows. Have you tried using a Mac? It’s much better for video editing. And what app are you using to edit videos? (I’m guessing either Avid or Premiere Pro?)
oh well…
no worries… :)
do it at ur own pace:)
Did a couple of video editing using Windows Movie Maker before n yes it is a pain. But the fruit of your labour is sweet when you see it.
Will look forward to your Sentosa adventure but I know there won’t be Sheylara bikini video…. :P
WAPANG!!!! :P
lol, the scrubbing face statement sounds so random. :P
Thanks for the vidz… nice meeting you briefly as well…
RN1209: Haha good idea on BBF. The facial care tip was just one of my random nonsense cos I didn’t know how to end my blog, lol.
shin: Wow, you’re fast! Thanks! :) The Garnier ad isn’t official yet. I’m supposed to do a blogpost about it, but they want the site to be complete before I post!
-=}{oT~dEv1L 666=-: I’ve never owned a Mac. And I’m using Premiere Pro, although I’m thinking of using other software cos many people around me are using different software, but I don’t know what to change to! I’m not really good at video editing, only can do the basic cut and paste. haha.
heartless: Thanks :)
tiger4: Well, I don’t think people really want to see Sheylara in bikini. It will just be wrong… and probably unpleasant. Haha.
W: WAPANG!
starm|st: Yah, you’re right. It IS totally random. Haha.
Yukun: Hi hi! I just checked out your blog. You’re the DJ, huh? It was nice meeting you although we didn’t really talk. I LOVE THE MUSIC YOU GUYS SPUN!!! Hope to party at your future parties! ;)
Thanks babe!
The video is sizzling hot.
How I wish I was there ..but generally, i avoid beach clubs becoz my tyre would be flawlessly exposed. :(
hi sheylara… juz drop us an email at progressions@asia.com and we’ll add you to our priority list for future parties… next one is NYE at a nice little club at gallery hotel…
p/s i think the video was done very well, capturing the early “not-so-many-people” scenes leading towards the crazy nite crowd :)
Sentosa?
.. i am from Italy :| sigh!
I think wat QY needs now is a nice video cam!!! ^_^
Speaking of videocam, which one did you use for this video?
Those are no bikini girls, and I am disappointed that it’s no wet T/shirt party either… just dry tee :(
8 hours spent on post-production for a 4mins video? OMG! That’s really painful…
Did you use Windows Movie Maker? If yes, how did you do the slow-mo?
Wealth Journey: Haha, I am the opposite of you. I avoid beaches because I don’t want to expose my lack of “tyre” in the upper region. lol.
Yukun: Thanks for the compliment! I’m just glad you guys aren’t upset about me chopping up your music, hehe. The original video was a bit longer. But after it got corrupted the first time, I made a shorter one the second time.
PREXURE: Well, shouldn’t you be glad to be in Italy? So many hot babes there!
Wang Wang: I actually have one on loan, but lazy to take out and use. Haha. And I didn’t dare take it out to the beach for fear of dirtying or damaging it. :P
Hillary: I was using my cheapo Canon Powershot E1 to take the video. I think it’s not bad for a cheap camera!
Relax: Haha, don’t be so high standard! :P Singapore is like that one mah.
betshopboy: At least it’s not as painful as real professionals films who sometimes take like a year to edit a 2-hour feature. :P Nope, I don’t use WMM. I use Adobe Premiere Pro.
If you did the vid than why most of the time you focus the camera on the girls body cuting their heads off? I mean its a guy thing… ;]
I like the music, makes me want to go to asia [who knows I might end up in Japain next year :p ], and the girls too of course ;] .
The vids that come up after your’s ends r a bit off as for a girls blog too ya know ;D
Sorry to hear you had hard time with putting this together, from my point of view it was worth it through so thanks :] .
It’s only that one sequence. The other parts all had heads. Haha. Anyway, my main purpose is to have a nice composition in the frame, and sometimes, it looks better with the head cut off. :P
Haha… I didn’t realise what came after my vids. Thanks for your feedback though.
@Sheylara: You did quite a good job on video taking. Have you ever thought of going into directing?
Thank you! I enjoy making videos once in a while, but I don’t want to do this full time. It will kill me. Haha. Anyway, it’s a fun thing for me but not one of my greatest passions, which is acting and writing! ;)
Yah, I was really impressed with the quality but then again, you’ll have to test it in a really dark place to be sure.
at ur own pace….
but still must cum out ma…
today wed liao..:P
tat means skip one week?
