Where have you been all my life?
My cousin Judy bought me a Monica Quen cheongsam and when mum brought it home from Malaysia to Australia, I fell in love. Next time I'm in M'sia, I know where I'm headed!

revision of Singapore lessons
Hello Tony, Vron,
Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness to me, I shall never be able to repay you for the love & care you showed me, not to say that I won't try!
It's been over a week since I've returned from Singapore and your wonderful loving and generous attention and training on makeup, hair, fashion, food, IT etc, so I thought that I should revise my new found wisdom before I forgot it:
"Last for a Lifetime"
It's important to choose good designer clothes, handbags & shoes that are so good that they will Last for a Lifetime, even if you may not want them to last a lifetime, because they may take a lifetime to pay off, but in the meantime you'll look real hot and have all the necessary props to attract the Right Man. (see next lesson)
"Duly Employed"
The first, and possibly, only criteria, when choosing the Right Man, unless of course he's too Bland and Asks too many questions without telling you anything about himself and Looks Like He's in his 60s instead of his (youthful looking) 50s. In addition to the only criteria above, it's important to ensure that any potential life partner is thoroughly vetted by Veronica & Tony over dinner, and he may need to answer the same question "So what do you do?" a few times in one evening as each vetter will want to hear the answer individually.
"Rumbly"
This is a very useful all purpose Veronica-designed word because it is a quality NOT to have when choosing clothes. Rumbly is a combination of rumpled, crumpled, busy. I must not buy or wear Rumbly clothes. I must choose clean lines, clear colours, bright pink lipsticks. I must wear blush.
So those 3 lessons are my Singapore life lessons in a nutshell, courtesy Vron my kindest, bestest friend, and Tony the supporting act who dares to steal the limelight from Vron, sometimes.
Again, thank you from the bottom of my rumbly heart (& tummy which misses all the yummy food)!

ocarina on my iphone
The latest thing to light up my life. I can't understand why, when I told a couple of people they weren't, like, WOW. It is incredibly magical.
I love the idea that I can blow softly into my iphone to create beautiful music - it turns it into a real musical instrument - an ocarina! Check out this musician's Zelda Song of Storms here
