Engagement Session in Salt Lake City
Fun and laughter make the best engagement pictures. We had a great time shooting Shannon & Kyle's engagement session at the Main Street Grill & Bar in Salt Lake City Utah. The lighting was great and what made it even better was their wonderful smiles. We kept saying the both worked it like models and come to find out they both do a little bit of modeling on the side. Well best of luck for you both, congratulations on your engagement and keep those smiles rolling!

an assortment of quickies
1. all delayed VIFF cards owed for the past 2 months will be mailed out tomorrow. that's a whopping huge lot of envelopes to be sent out.... yikes! apologies for the delay, some problems cropped up when our new (and now ex.) part-time administrative assistant deleted some previous order records... amongst a few other screw-ups... sorry! singapore customers should receive their cards in these few days. international customers should get theirs in about 9 days.
2. don't forget to take note of the non-shipping dates! we are not kidding! we don't wish to have to deal with email/online drama when we return....
3. all important (as deemed by us of course) emails warranting a reply will be done within these few days. we're still late in replying all emails, so please bear with us as we try our best to rush through everything this crazy period.....
4. i'm allergic to irresponsible people. please stay away from me if you are. you should jolly well know yourself, otherwise, i would suggest you getting a reality check. over-promising and under/not-delivering stinks. the world is getting filled with over-inflated-self-confident people who are nothing but trouble, if not to themselves, to people who have to deal with them. i should know, i got fucked up 4 freaking times in just 3 months. bloody ridiculous. ppppffftttttt....... what ever happenned to being considerate, truthful, humble and modest????
5. big tall strong healthy educated-looking men wearing good stuff, watch out for me. if you take the train, sit there, and yakkity yak on your expensive phone, with frail-looking elderly peeps carrying heavy stuff standing right smack in front of you (which means you don't even have to look far to spot them), and hanging on to the pole for their dear lives, and you look up at them, and continue yakkity-yakking, shaking your big strong healthy feet clothed in big expensive leather shoes, in a couldn't-care-less--cuz-it's-my-right-to-rest-my-strong-muscles, i suggest you not be a stingy prick, get your own damn car or take a cab. our public transport can do better with lesser people like you. if you let me catch you doing the above, i will make sure you leave your seat, uncomfortably. yes. i will. i just did. yesterday. to a 6-feet strapping man in his early 30s. i also do not let off aunties and smelly young school kids in school uniforms who hog the front doors of the train. so silly 'kiasu' aunties and stinky self-centered kids, watch out for me too. if you still think otherwise, i'll say it again - literacy, class, and $$$ has no direct corelation with civic-mindedness and civil courtesy.
i should get a public service award, no? ha.
my bday pressie trip has been delayed to fri evening... thanks to slave-worker b and friends. ain't it so good to be your own boss?? ha. sorry, i didn't mean to gloat... :/ take care peeps... do tune in to my flickr for more updates later~ xoxo!

hmmm... what else did i miss.... i know it has been pretty much work and littleoddforest news for quite some time now... see! i've been trying to keep it professional. yeah.... pfffftttt......
oh oh! i've been trying hard to take MORE photos (without me inside of course, what with my slight disdain for taking photographs of myself...bleh..) and some random ones i've taken include the crazy group of kids from nanyang polytechnic and their foreign exchange classmate all the way from germany! who asked me to be their mentor for their entrepreneurship project. it has been my honor sweeties!! :) and thanks for your treat! i have never had 'students' treat me, a working adult before, so it felt a little strange. ha. you really didn't have to thank me, i didn't do much at all i think, ha ;p hope you'll all be getting kick-ass results!!

LOL! well, mostly moi, since i had to stand at the side.... anyways... thank you mr. pinky and ms. ls sour prune for the help! and also to the missy bosses of killerheels - mykillerheels.com (check out their super sweet trinkets and accessories!)! and also huge thanks to angelia of mea culpa and her gang who did such a kick-ass job of organising and promoting fashbash! and not forgetting i got to meet the creator behind chalinn, ai lin! who made me go "hmmmm!" when i spotted her from a distance in her snotty crowned bird tanktop, and i was wondering who that was! ha! she was so sweet, my hunger must be showing on my face, because she left, and then came back again with a snickers bar. thanks for making me last till 6pm *hugs* oohh! and also not forgetting to thank lof's dearest loyal-est, sweetest customers!!!!! you came, you bought, you went home, logged online, emailed me and some even bought more! and those who even took the time and trouble to drop me an email to say sorry (????) for not going????? dear gawd. how sweet can anyone get??? you have to be in santa's list this year-end ;)
