Ants are always crawling around me. Wherever the location whenever, whatever.
Like even right now, they’re milling around me.
But there are some days I don’t notice them and the Preview day was one of them.
Much was going on and there were just too many new friends to chat with.
We met at 9am, Orchard Ion. Some were already sparkly and cheery, fed and ready to vroom. some needed our morning brew. Some felt the interior lights were too bright. haha. But it was a great morning whatever our state.
We had our briefing from the fab team , did a quick stage run and did as many self-intros in between. I’m so thankful that everyone I spoke with was nice and friendly. No airs at all. Oh and one of the contestants, Bryon, has the best shoes in the world. Adidas by Jeremy Scott. Silver Wings High Cuts. which is now and forever out of stock in SG. So when I saw it i was like…AH.I’ll probably have to import it …@_@. Ok focus.
After all that we were shown to our hiding caves, where we could Mingle,do our Make-up and have our Meals.
To Merry, Lili, Sandy, Juanni, Audrey , Sarah and all the great gals i chatted with,
The waiting time was made painless with you!

Snippets from Behind the Scenes
A huge shoutout to the crazy lovely team of : Organisers, Stylists, Makeup artists from Anna Sui , the Hairstylists, Dressers and “Nanny-s”
You all rocked it !
I loved the on the spot sewing /tucking in-s / and frantic touchups. Awesome.
The show was short and sassy. And a whole load of fun. Everyone looked hot!
And so the time came, I did my best to work the 2 bebe outfits ♥

Bebe's classy take of the LBD
I had such a surprise when I was just about to walk off the stage.

Flowers!
My Bf got me a lil bouquet of flowers.

He’s not really the sort so it was all the more precious.
According to sources, I was beaming.
I believe that Appreciating trains you to be happy in life and with life. In all my non-scientific assumptions, i reckon that mastering the art of appreciation trains your body to release endorphins in the long run. haha.
Oh! I want to thank my friend Roland for snapping shots of the other contestants.
Here’s some of the shots that he took with his Canon 40D.

Sarah's Dad took a Picture of us!
While waiting to go up on stage , Sarah’s dad took a picture of us.
I thought that was really sweet. Credits to Sarah for this pic. We all look so smiley here. Thats hot-mama Sandy in the middle and the gorgeous Sarah with amazingly toned arms. *swoons*
After the walk we had a quick photoshoot with the Subaru car outside Ion. It was hot . Both figuratively and literally scorching.
I proceeded to meet my awesome and kick-ass bunch of friends and family who came down. Quite a few had to rush off early so I didn’t get to meet everyone. A big thank you to everyone who came to support or texted your love.Your screams were heard!
After all that, I went back to our cave and saw the dressers and team still hard at work packing.
The unseen team always works the hardest. You guys are really awesome. Thanks for working hard and picking up after us! (And helping to sew me up and pull me out of my clothes.) haha.
Hope to catch ya’ll again at the finals!
In the mean time… Here’s a candid shot of Dee & Me (I know its grammatically incorrect but it rhymes!) to end the post. ♥
