The weekend's finally here & i cant wait for dinner with everyone on Sat!! :)
Been looking forward that all week and I can finally smell it now.. heh
Anyway, the past week has been good!
Finally able to take things a little slower and go out to enjoy some really good food again :)
Will save those for a picture update really soon!

Had a shoot today with Bea & a very special guest, Keshia!
She's one of the 3 winners from the Catwalk Runway during our Bday Bash whom the audience picked!
The prize was to be able to appear in a shoot with Beatrice for our updates so there'll be 2 others coming up, stay tuned!! :)

Here's a sneak peek of both of them in one of their favourite pieces, heehee.
Both of them got one each for themselves & Bea got both the bodycon top & dress cos she really couldnt decide..
We loveeee the material & cut!
It's the same material used for Jie's Herve Leger-Inspired Dress which is oh-so-perfect for hiding bulges and accentuating the curves. hehe




Stay tuned for more pieces coming up on Sunday (evening or night i think :)) !!

----

Counting down to Vel's return!!
Jie & I have got sooo much to update her and stuff.. cant wait!! :)
It's friday night and bryan's out at some gala dinner while im stuck at home settling my backorders & photoshopping the pics :(
Gonna catch some rest before continuing!

Have a lovely weekend!!


 

*Edit: 4:05AM*

I'm still up and awake watching MJ's Memorial Live on CNN with dad and it's really awesome..
I really am enjoying it.. paying tribute to MJ with the rest of the world.
Btw John Mayer's & Usher's performances were really superbbbb..
And the testimonies just so moving..
MJ's a true Legend & a gift from God :)

I'd been controlling my tears throughout the memorial but this final heart-breaking speech by his daughter, Paris Katherine Jackson was the last straw for me.


-----

Just came back from the Dermatologist and I cant wait to try out the products!!! 
Omg, so exciting :D
And Clare, i dont know how u managed to spend over $600+, that's crazy!! :(

Anyway, I said i'd bring Bryan to Cedele and I did!! Yesterday :)
We're definitely going back again heehee
Thanks Clare :)


 
I ordered the exact same thing again! haha
wanted to try the soft shell crab pasta mag had the other day but because im sucha boring person, i didnt :X



On the cab to collect the car from servicing!

And I've easily put on 3kg due to the 4 nights in a row late night Mcdelivery sinful supper.
That's the only way to keep me awake & to keep me going while i settle my emails.
Jie & I are sooo exhausted from the back-to-back posts and im really thankful that she's allowed me to postpone my next post by a few days so that we both will have some space to breathe (and upload photos heehee) :) THANKS JIE!!! You're the best :)

Can't wait for some serious retail therapy tmrw!!
I'm gonna get the necklace for Vel and im gonna get it engraved :)
She's finally coming back next week!! Wheeeeeee

Gonna go wash up & apply the creams and all! hehe
Have a great night!

 

Saw these 2 videos while waiting for both my gmail accts to reset (ugh) and they really cheered me up!!
Sooooooooo cute!! :>


You gotta watch this more than once and observe the expression on every baby's face!!
heehee especially 0:14 to 0:17
look at the looks on the friends' faces!! love it :):)


Evian Ad introduces rollerskating, breakdancing babies



This is hilarious as well!! haha

E*Trade Smartie Babies!

 

I'd better go sleep right after this post!
Gotta wake up at 7am tmrw to prepare the stocks, photoshoot later in the day and rush the pics out in time for the post tmrw night!
I really really am crossing my fingers that i'll be able to rush everything out in time :(
If not, i'll have to post on Friday morning.. hmm

Anyway, i've been getting a couple of emails about the denim corset and yes!! it's a manufactured piece which will be launched in my next collection!! (thurs night of friday morning!) :):)
This corset is made of soft denim and seriously does WONDERS to anyone's figure!! Love it :)
It's adjustable and can be tightened or loosened to flatter your figure.
There are 2 colours - blue denim with cream criss-cross & white denim with denim milky blueish criss cross :)

----

I couldnt take it any longer and called Vel whose all the way in Aussie!!
So happy to hear her voice and that 5min talk was heavenly for me! heh
She'll be flying to NZ to ski tmrw.. THAT IS LIFEEEE!!

Gtg now!
Cant wait to hear about Clare's detailed dermatologist session & Mag's haircut!!
GOODNIGHT :)

Went to town today for dinner with Mag&Clare and look what I got myself!!
So happy with my buy; it's so pretty! :)



Gonna get it engraved soon heh
I'm thinking of getting 1 for vel too (i cant remember if she owns a similar one already!) and if i do, i'll engrave our names on them :)

Here's our really delicious dinner!
Thanks Clare :)




  

Went over to NYDC for some yummy dessert thereafter!
Mag was on a hunt for her chocolatey dessert heh
And how can anyone not love chocolate?! (ie. Clare) !!!






We stayed till this NYDC staff chased us away with the bill.. haha i'll never forget that!
Walked over to Gloria Jean's to chill & talk.
 
Clare thought she looked gross so she editted the picture above ^^
HAHA

Random shots


 

Too bad we didnt take much pictures cos it was quite a bad day for all 3 of us :(
Anyway, i hope time flies cos i cant wait to go see the dermatologist Clare recommended (7th july!!) and i cant wait for vel to fly back soon!! Miss her terribly :(
Mag's face is so flawlessly pretty now and i wanna be like her too! Am dying to meet her miracle doctor.
Been sleeping at such unearthly hours and my skin is really suffering..
Gonna crash now.
Goodnight everyone and happy L4D-ing Mag!! :)

 

Bryan & I finally went to watch Transformers aft I'd cleared packing the bulk of my parcels & mails!!
It was awesome!! Love the effects and all, i thought the actors suited their roles perfectly too. heh
Phew, im finally done with my last post! :>
Gonna try to post my Aussie pics tmrw + some overdue pics!

Here's today after the movie & Zara sale!
i LOVEEEEE my new wedges!! Yay, pretty shoes for Bea to model in again :)

Please pardon my super "shag" (heehee inside joke) and tired-look!
i havent been able to get enough sleep the past few days :(

Bryan insisted that I took pics with my new wedges (cos he bought them for me).
 I could barely open my eyes! Didnt know i looked so lifeless until i saw this pic.
You should have seen the rest of the pics!! This is the most decent (and boring) one :)
And my favourite dress! I really really love this piece tiff&i manufactured so much, im praying hard it'll dry in time for me to wear again tmrw! hee :>

 

It's amazingly comfortable; Bea, you're gonna loveee it too!! :)

Sushi dinner tmrw with gege&weis! Really looking forward to that :)
We're so gonna plan our next trip soon. Cant wait to get out of SG again!

Gonna sleep now, gotta wake up in 5 1/2 hrs!
Have a fab week :))


 

I miss Aussieland :(


It's been almost a month since I last posted on BC and thank God for bryan for helping me adjust to all the emailing, invoicing etc lifestyle again! It was a super crazy mad rush to get the pics up when photobucket decided to crash on me just.like.that :(
Thank you all for being so patient with me! Sorry for the slight delay :(

It's 3:49AM and im usually well asleep at this hr..
All the bottles of Starbucks coffee which bryan bought me (to stay up for the post) is seriously doing its job well!
Decided to take a break from all the invoicing for awhile..
--

The past 3wks or so have been sucha good break for me!
I truly enjoyed the days where i could slp till 11AM and not having to worry about checking my emails every 1/2 hr!
I'm looking forward to my next holiday (hopefully in Sept!) and so much more at the end of the yr :)
I'm so thankful to have had the opportunity to get to know more lovely people & the chance to become closer friends with Clare & Mag. Jie is right; they really bring the word selfless to the next level :)
Had dinner with Bea and both of them last night at Holland V and we had sucha great time.. Thank God we have each other to hear and sound one another out.. i really enjoy their company :)

Went home and realised that bryan had booked tix for both of us to catch Transformers today but i couldnt make it cos of my post!! :( I could literally his heart sink from the expression on his face..
Makes me feel lousy for disappointing him like that :'(
I'd better think of how i can make it up to him before school starts this coming week! Then he'll not have as much time for me. Sigh

And i miss Vel while she's happily away on her well-deserved break :(
Only she & jie understand and keep me sane from the madness BC brings..
Thank God for Jie who drops me very sweet & encouraging emails/sms-es every now and then to cheer me up :)
Ern, if you're reading this, thank you for everything uve done for Er Jie!! Now i know why she loves you so much, ure sucha sweetheart :)
Gonna hire you soon for my backorders k, heh.

I'm starving!! Feel like calling McDelivery.. hmm
Back to invoicing now!
Have a lovely day :)
 

Here are some pics of the bash from my cam :)
Most of them are with our photographer so we're stil waiting for him to get them ready & send it to us!
He has pictures of the catwalk runway, lucky draw, sales etc.
If you do have pictures which you wanna share with us, please send them to bonitochico.hires@gmail.com!
Thank you :)



( More Inside :) )

To our fantastic models who were so understanding, friendly, gorgeous & stunning on stage, and just being everything we could ever wish for :) You girls rock!!
To all of our lovely friends & family who came down to lend their support & help!
To Angie, Yvonne & Cynthia who squeeeeeezed time out from their every busy schedule to grace this occasion :)
To Mag&Clare, for helping us with making sure the catwalk ran smoothly, hanging our clothes, helping us with the sales, supporting and encouraging us since the beginning & giving us your 2nd opinion :)
Last but definitely not least, thank God for everything!


Please forgive me if i've missed anyone out! We're all soooo tired now and just so ready to crash.
Will try to upload as many pics as possible ASAP :)

*BEWARE, CLARE!* muahahhahah
 

This is gonna be really short cos Vel, jie & myself are running out of time with so much to settle before the bash! :(
Thank God for Fweddy, Bryan, Ernie, Kul, Bea, Via, Gege,Weis & super nice+helpful models to help us here and there!
And also to Clare, who very kindly offered to help us with whatever she can after her paper tmrw!!
Thank you, it really means a lot!! :)

 


Goodie bags!


Bryan helping out with the RSVP emails, heehee.


We couldnt stop disturbing him
teehee




"Leave me aloneeeeeeeeeeeee!"


----

Vel, Bea & I had a photoshoot with The Straits Times yesterday and it was crazy fun (and tiring)!!
Had to be a model for around 45min and i was in agony trying to balance on one 3inch heel and trying my hardest to smile naturally.. haha
It's so tough and tiring - Vel & Bea had a much easier time than i did hehehee
For one, I couldnt pull off the "pouty" look to save my life. The photographer kept asking for that and i just couldnt do it!
He was like, "Ok no teeths please. I dont wanna see any teeths."
Referring to me of course haha
But thank God for the fun experience anyway ;)

Too bad jie couldnt join us :( If not it'd have been perfect!!
We'll be appearing on a National Day Special article :)



OMG i looked like i was arguing with the photographer..
But I was actually munching on M&M chocolates (i think), right Bea?
Either that or i must have been in a state of total disbelief at what poses the photographer wanted us to do X)



My arms & butt in full glory :(


It's been a super mad rush ever since I came back; settling outstanding orders, replying emails, preparing for our bday bash etc and i really cant wait for Sat to come :):):)
Guess i'll only have time to post up the Aussie pics after Sat!

Have a great Wed :)


 

So much memories that'll last a lifetime :)


Hopefully i'll be able to start uploading the Aussie pics up by tonight!
There are about 1200++ and it's impossible to load every single one of them!
Miss the place, food and company so much! We reunited last night for some L4D action, heehee.
Gotta go get ready to meet Vel & Bea soon!
And i'm really excited to meet the selected models tmrw for our runway show this Sat! :>
Can't wait to meet gegeweis&via again too!

Have a lovelyyyyyy day! :)

I just got back and I miss Aussie so much already :(
Had SO much fun, ive got soooo much to update + pics to post!!
Love this picture so much; look at the gorgeous colours! It's not photoshopped (in case you're wondering) and the weather's really just perfect :)
In the meantime, ive got to clear all my emails before I update about my trip!

Thank God for the break, it was really timely and essential :)
Can't wait for Vel to go for her break too!
Thanks dear for jaga-ing everything on BC when jie and i were away!!

Goodnight! Hope all's been well for everyone!
 

I'll be away till 15th June!
Take care y'all :)

Bryan was down with high fever earlier today so he was quarantined in a room at our home! heh



You'll only understand this if you play L4D :)
We're such fanatics..


Patrick pops in for a shot!

PCD concert tonight was rather low-budget & a bit tooooo short!! :(
But im really SO impressed with Nicole's vocals & dancing! She's so nice to watch & listen to; sucha born performer!!

Just came out from a long hot bath and I truly enjoyed it.. :)
Sounds so stupid but i havent had the luxury of time to take a longer-than-necessary bath ever since my post on Sunday!
And i never thought i'd say this, but I bought SK II's Miracle Water after witnessing its miraculous works on my cuz's complexion!!
Gosh, it's amazing & seriously miraculous! (cant stress that word enough, hee)



It's my 3rd night using it and i must say im pretty impressed with its wonders!
Even my mum cant stop singing its praises! haha
Told vel, gege, weis & via about it and all except Vel (she already owns one!!) are so excited to get it!
Shame on me, seriously, for mocking Bryan when he brought SK II up previously :X
Every girl should really own one :)

I've finally managed to clear the 3 majority batches of mails and i can finally sleep before 3AM!!
I'm so gonna turn in earlier tonight and continue with the outstanding ones tmrw morning :)
Kickboxing and L4D tmrw and im so looking forward to both!!

Back to my emails now before I turn in..
Goodnight!! :)
Btw, thank you so much to all who'd left a comment in my previous post!

So sorry that i wasnt able to reply everyone of you in time cos i was so crazily busy with my post the past wk :(

 

Just came back from Night at the Museum 2 and I gotta spend the night replying my emails later :)
I've been having some probs receiving/sending emails from/to hotmails users especially cos they either turn out blank or undelivered :( If you dont get a reply from me within 12hrs, pls drop me a mail at msrach@gmail.com :)

The bday celebration was great!
Will post pics up soon!
Nothing beats spending quality time with those I love!
Bryan's off for his kelong trip from tmrw till sun *cries* but thank God i've got my upcoming post to keep me occupied! heh
This will be the last post before I take a longggggg break and breather. a much needed one!
Gonna take a rest and recharge :)
Guess I'll do a mini one cos I've got lots to plan & settle with Vel & Jie; cant wait!

Gotta go off now; till the next time!
