ONE.

Well, it's happened again; time has completely snuck past me leaving me breathless and anxious to figure out how to put into words, everything that's happened since i last wrote.... where to start, what to say... and what time is it?

Gotta keep an eye on the clock because as i type this delicious blog i am baking even more delicious cheesecake bars. Yup thats right, I bake. Not only do i bake, i LOVE to bake- cook- whatever food related activity you can think of!!! I LOVE FOOD. What can i say? I'm secretly a fattie who eats way more than she should and thank god for good genes and a high metabolism cuz lately i've been eating and barely working out! Yikes... i hear the treadmill calling me names...

Let's see... so besides my little co

oking/ baking frenzy, i've also celebrated my 23rd birthday (nothing crazy, just a nice little dinner with a few close friends + my mom and a day filled with lots of desserts!!!), i made a quick escape down to phuket, thailand with my roomie and we basked in the brilliant thai sun for 3 short days and nice long bubblebath filled nights (and lots of room service haha), i've been doing all my normal Mtv work, i won "Best Lips of 2008" at FHM Singapore's recent Hott 100 party - where yours truly almost spit up her drink on a stranger in surprise when they announced that she's #8 on this years FHM International Hott 100 (?!!?!?!?..... my mother was actually very proud and did not hesitate to point out that i get my lips from her haha), but perhaps most exciting of all:::: are you ready for this?! ::::::: Utt and i were asked to help out with the ONE campaign here in Singapore! Didnt i just blog you all about this!? Did someone hear my e-prayers?! 

AMAZING. So Utt and i went down to MILK studios and we got to write a personal pledge for the ONE Singapore website as well as be photographed for website and various other mediums that will be used to spread not so well known facts about what's going on in the world today.  It's such a dream come true for me to take part in ONE campaign... in fact the night before i found out about their invitation, i had just signed a ONE petition! It's like it all came together at once. I love it when that happens... 

Even during my lil getaway to phuket, life handed me one of its rare moments where too many coincidences all line up perfectly- super last minute i was given the weekend off, even more last minute my mom friend was able to find a hotel room for me, and then to top it all off 2 of my best friends from bangkok were in phuket that exact weekend! OH! And i didnt even tell you yet but the hotel has 2 baby elephants that come out to play with the guests! Yup Lucky is 11 months old, tiny (for an elephant) and not only plays the harmonica but also does headstands!!! Lily is 2 years old and super cuddly- she loves giving hugs and kisses (: i fell head over heels in love with both of them....! Too bad elephants arent small enough to make into household pets!

Could you imagine me riding an elephant to work down orchard road?! Ohhhh how FUN!!

Hmmmm what else to say?!

Obviously this weekend is madness in Singapore- all hustle and bustle with the first ever F1 night race happening this weekend... i plan on baking, hibernating, and spending lots of time with the friends who will be in town (:

What are YOUR plans for the weekend?

If you find some free time and you've got access to a camera, flowers, and a computer head on over to www.mtvasia.com/mtvi and submit a photo for the Flower Power photo contest!!! Mtv has a new pro social campaign out that supports World Peace and Anti-Violence (: peace starts within and spreads so sit down, meditate a little, snap a few pix, and help spread the PEACE.

(contest ends oct 6th so you better get to it!!!)

Okay the cheesecake bars are ready to be taken out of the oven so i'll leave you all with one final thought:

"When i despair, i remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it... always."

- M. Gandhi

have a good weekend!!! lots of love, peace, and big delicious cheesecake bars!
