Busy bee

It’s about time that my activites are starting to slow down. My dark circles are getting worst, not to mention this epic zit decided to pay me a visit.. ON MY FACE. Sigh!

I’ve been running about ever since my exams were over.  There wasn’t a day when i can spend the whole day bumming at home. What i meant by bumming is just plain ol’ surfing the internet or watching my Desperate Housewives DVD set  while pigging out on ice-cream and chips.

Mmmm.. ice cream..

But no! Even when i had the chance to spend the day at home, i’ll be busy working on the domain. Every little single detail of this site.

Apart from working on the site, i had other activities going on too such as..

1. Work
2. Genting with the classmates
3. Work
4. Singapore with the family
5. More work!

Enough to keep me occupied for three full weeks.

Don’t get me wrong, i’m not complaining bout work. In fact i just had two photo shoots back to back last week, phew!

And i did a couple of interesting themes lately. One was like a classic theme for Sisters magazine, three looks for each era. Think 60′s and stuff like those – big hair, vintage dressing, pearls, and thick eyeliner with heavy lashes.

Another was a bridal theme for Feminine magazine which is the latest shoot i did just last week. I acutally got to wear a white gown with flowers in my hair, hehe!

This was taken during the Sisters shoot.

Honestly, that was the worst shoot i’ve done so far. All these while my definition of a bad photo shoot is always got to do with the hairstylist. Hairstylists who can’t perform and deliver well. They handle their model’s hair badly and cannot create the required hairstyle efficiently, and believe me it is very time consuming.

But this shoot took it to a whole new level.

We were dealing with a theme that involved complicated hairstyles, so it was acceptable for the hairstylist to take more time. In fact, he was rather good at what he did.

However, the make up artist was HORRIBLE. They just had to get an amateur make up artist! I could tell because she was from a make up academy and she had her supervisor with her telling her what to do and how to do it. I then realized that i was a test rat for a rookie.

She took the longest time ever to complete one look and her work was shit, sorry to say. The eyeshadow application was bad but she was lucky to have the heavy false lashes to cover up her lousy work.

We took nine fucking hours to complete three looks. NINE HOURS! THREE LOOKS!

I’ve done six looks before in nine hours. I’ve done three looks before in three hours. But that was just absurd!

And she did something SO BAD, i’ll NEVER forgive her for that. I even complained to my agency about it and mamasan said that they’ll boycott any shoot that involves make up artists from that academy.

But i bet none of you could tell judging from the picture, right. Well it’s better off if none of you knew what went on behind the scenes, really.

Sigh!

Anyway, i got all my pictures from iFeel last week but unfortunately they missed out my M.A.C Hello Kitty. I was looking forward to that one though, hmpf.

I’ve added one new picture in the portfolio. It’s dated April 2008, but it’s one of my favourites. It’s even one of the photograper’s wallpaper on his Mac ;)
