And this photo marks the end of Project 365 2011. Proud that I've completed Project 365 for 2 full years: 2010-2011. Not gonna continue for 2012 but might do something different. 

;)

Lastly, a wish:

"Hope makes all things work. Faith makes all things possible. Love makes all things beautiful. May you have all three for the new year. Happy New Year everyone!"

I want to get Sophie Kinsella's "Shopaholic Ties the Knot". It's the third book of the Shopaholic series. I'm currently reading the first book, i.e. "Confessions of a Shopaholic".

Project 365 2011 - Photo #325

Original photo from here.

I watched Bride Wars (2009) last night. In the movie, Liz is wearing a Vera Wang wedding gown. Quoting the article: The gown is strapless with a sweetheart neckline. The bodice is covered with a white lace, and the gown is a customized version of one from Vera Wang's 2009 bridal collection. The real focal point of the gown is the enormous tulle skirt which falls from a basque waistline. In addition, the gown has a lavender ribbon tied into a bow at the natural waist, with long tails falling over the skirt.

Emma's gown is a beautiful ivory off-the-shoulder style with an asymmetrically draped neckline. The gown is fitted to the knees and then flares out into a fuller skirt. Emma's gown is from Vera Wang's 2005 bridal collection.

For me, I'll start hunting for my wedding gown next year, probably in March. Oh yeah, just like Bride Wars, my wedding is in June too. ;)

My eyes are drawn to a pretty pink-and-beige Coach bag at the Coach outlet at The Gardens Mall. It's priced at RM1,025.

*/slits wrist*

Disheartened, I went online and found this oh-my-so-pretty-I-want! Coach bag that looks similar to the one I saw at the outlet.

Description:

POPPY SIGNATURE SATEEN LAYLA

• A push-lock closure and brightly colored contrast trim add wit and charm to a compact and practical design with a long detachable strap for shoulder and cross-body wear.
• Signature sateen fabric with metallic or patent fabric trim.
• Inside zip pocket.
• Push-lock closure, fabric lining
• Handle with 6 1/4" drop
• Longer strap for shoulder or cross-body wear
• 10" (L) x 6 1/4" (H) x 2 1/4" (W)

The hunt for my wedding dress has begun. Although I won't be buying the dress now, I do have in mind the wedding dress style that I like. The dress will most likely be an A-line dress, not off-shoulders, not too low-cut, with laces, and will have a blue sash at the waist. :)

Our Beary Fishy

In March, I bought a huge Beary Fishy plushie from Dooodolls for David. Technically, it's a shared plushie. :P

We really like this plushie because it's a quirky brown bear with a blue fish hanging from one of its arms.

Dooodolls' products consist of plushies, keychains, car headrests, and many more adorable stuff. I'm so interested to get a mini Beary Fishy keychain but it was out of stock for a long time. I couldn't get it anywhere in Klang Valley.

So, I put it on my wishlist.

Yesterday, I received a surprise package from Dooodolls.

It's a BEARY FISHY KEYCHAIN!!!

Mini Beary Fishy is now happily attached to my WUQkie (car) key. ^_^

Thanks David for getting it for me from Dooodolls' online store! It's really a sweet surprise!

More about Beary Fishy keychain from the online store.

Now, we have a huge Beary Fishy plushie and a mini Beary Fishy keychain. Sweet. ;)

My WUQkie

WUQkie, a Blueberry Tea Proton Saga. WUQkie comes from the word Wookie, one of the characters in Star Wars. WUQ comes from the car's number plate. :)

WUQkie was registered on 25 November 2010 and I drove it back from Proton's Center of Excellence on 27 November 2010.

I like this rubber air freshener. Such a cute little flower. Thanks David! :)

So, another item is now removed from my wishlist.

Halloween-ized Fitness First @ Menara Manulife

If you're visiting Fitness First at Menara Manulife, you'll be greeted with Halloween stuff! Cool! Well, I hope they're not subtly trying to tell the existing Fitness First members, "If you defect to other fitness clubs, this is what will happen to you -- R.I.P..." Wahahaha! Just kidding. Well, to be honest. I "stole" that line from David. :P

Awww... A cute but dead, bloody rag doll.

The Grim Reaper says "Hellooooo..." I presume.

Giant black spider crawling on the wall!!! Oh the horror!

And of course, a witch. Found her in the ladies' changing room, stuck on mirrors.

Double, double toil and trouble; fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Double, double toil and trouble, something wicked this way come...

I wonder if the rest of the Fitness First clubs are Halloween-ized as well? Let's find out soon before 31 October 2010! ^^

My Trademark: joycescapade

I'm the proud owner of joycescapade - my online identity. It's derived from my blog, Joy 'N' Escapade, which was born into the blogosphere on 17 August 2007.

From this post, "Hardest thing to write: About Me" and from the results of Google-ing joycescapade (screenshot below), it's evident.

joycescapade is my trademark.

The hunt™ for an online identity has ended.

I've been using joycescapade almost anywhere online, especially via blogging, i.e. Joy 'N' Escapade and micro-blogging, i.e. Twitter & Tumblr. For my Facebook, I maintain my name.

Here's a screenshot of my blog's top-left sidebar. I've grouped my trademark links on this slot to ease navigation from one site to another.

Happy browsing! :D

I like this little write-up.

Joycescapade: Living up to her favorite quote, "if it is to be, it is up to me", Joyce blogs & micro-blogs freestyle on the things she deems important and inspirational in life namely food, movies and more! Follow her gastronomic adventures across the Klang Valley and beyond to delight her taste buds. An avid movie lover, Joyce hits the cinemas practically every week so hit up her blog for the latest at the theaters.

My beloved Nokia E71

Phone Hunt™ has ended. It's actually a company phone with company line. At least, I'm owning it on behalf of the company. :P

Gotten it in late August 2009, if I don't remember wrongly. Since then, I've experienced and still experiencing LOADS of fun and convenience while I'm away from my working laptop. Here are a few points:

1. Enhanced mobile surfing experience (especially WAP, Twitter & Facebook).

2. Checking work email while I'm on the go without hassle.

3. Capturing higher quality photos with its 3.2MP camera for my Twitpic, Facebook Mobile Uploads, and this blog!!!

4. Its battery can last up to 5 days if I don't engage it in exhaustive tasks, especially mobile surfing for too long.

Thank you!!!

Note: Photos below are taken with Nokia 6500, 2MP camera only.

Pretty, ain't it?
