yay !
highlight : harry potter and the deathly hallows is nominated for 2 awards !
i doubt it will win due to the fact that those americans are so pius !

my very own oscar predictions !

even though i haven't watched all the movies ,i think i will still go ahead with the predictions !


best picture : either the social network or king's speech or inception

best director : david fincher or the coen brothers (i hope nolan wins but it is unlikely )

best actress : natalie portman

best actor : colin firth

best supporting actress : helena bonham carter or amy adams


best supporting actor : maybe christian bale or geoffrey rush !(tricky)

best score : alexander desplat or the those social network dudes
a.r rahman is unlikely to win again (unless a miracle happens) the score for 127 hours was actually the best compared to all of the other movies !

best special effects : harry potter and the deathly hallows or inception !
i would really like to see harry potter take home an oscar !


that's it !
i hope i'm accurate !
hahahaha !
i meant my predictions !

cambridge results ! omg !

i'm sitting before the computer thinking of tommorow !

not the best red carpet !

angelina jolie in versace !

i have to say , she looked soooo awesome !
i loved the shoulder pads !
gives it an 80s feel to it !








anne hathaway in armani prive !

i also liked this cause of the shoulder pads !
not sure of the exposed back but anne glitters all the way (in a good way that is)






emma stone in the calvin klein collection !

to tell , this was my favourite look on the carpet !
loved the colour (peach as said by emma )!
very simple but then again simplicity has it's voice !





january jones in versace :

i thought this was inappropriate !
too much skin revealed !
loved it when she rocked that pleated versace last year !
this is bad !






natalie portman in victor and rolf !

i loved this look !
really !
natalie is one of those stars who look awesome in anything !
there has been issues with the red flower but i think it's just perfect !





sandra bullock in jenny packam !

this is ugly !
sandra !
you look ugly !
ugly !
those banks don't work for you at all !
ugly !
what ?
you thought you were gonna look edgy !
PLEASE !





JENNIFER LOPEZ IN ZUHAIR MURAD !

JENNY , I THOUGHT YOU LOOKED OKAY !
AS IN , THE MARKS ONLY GOES FOR THE DRESS !
MURAD SEQUENCING OF THE LABOUCHI'S ARE STUNNING !
I DON'T LIKE IT THAT THE SPAGHETTI STRAPS ARE VISIBLE !



MEGAN FOX IN ARMANI PRIVE !

i thought the colour really worked for her skin tone !
that's all (as miranda precely would say) !



helena bonham carter in viviene westwood !

bye bye !

confused and kinda worried !

my mother and i were in her room last night talking about movies and the globes (mostly about a.r. rahman being nominated again for his music in 127 hours ) and the topic just slipped to my future education plans .

as all of you know , i was planning to do a degree in architecture but recently my mother hasn't been agreeing to this at all .
she wants a safe , risk free future !
you know , theones where you actually get employed ang actually earn a lot !
i understand that , but i'm slightly confused now , cause i've been into architecture and all those artsy fartsy stuff !
i don't know what to do ?


and then i thought , maybe i should major in maths !
hahahahha !
and what would i become ?
a lecturer !
i really don't have a clue right now !
i'll just wait till my results are out !

FOLLOW MY BLOG !

PEOPLE !
PLEASE DO FEEL FREE TO FOLLOW MY BLOG !
AHHAHAAHAA !


I SOUND SOOOOOOOOOO DESPERATE !

COME ON ALL YOU BLOGGERS OUT THERE !

fondant for celebration !

hello world ,


lately i've been entangled with an obsession for fondant or in other words , cake decorating (especially cupcakes).
i really don't have the interest for cooking or even baking for that matter , but just the art aspect of food !
i believe that even the worlds most horrible meal would atleast look yummy if it has proper presentation !

never mind that !
coming back to fondant and sugar paste . actually , i do remember posting something about this sometime last year .

uummh ! YES !

TH FACT IS , I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO TRY AND MOULD OR DECORATE CUPCAKES WITH THIS MERE FONDANT AND I HAVEN'T HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO SO !
I'VE ONLY BEEN MESSING AROUND WITH MODELING CLAY FOR THE PAST TWO MONTH IN ATTEMPT TO PRACTICE !
I CAN'T PRACTICE WITH FONDANT !
IT'S JUST SIMPLY EXPENSIVE !
YOU JUST CAN'T PRACTICE WITH FONDANT !
MODELING CLAY SHOULD DO THE TRICK AND IS WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING (AS MENTIONED ABOVE ) !


THE THING IS , I WANTED TO DO IT FOR CHRISTMAS BUT TIME WAS MERELY JEALOUS OF ME (JHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA) !

SO , I'VE DECIDED TO MEDDLE WITH FONDANT AND SUGAR PASTE THIS CHINESE NEW YEAR !

PEOPLE ,
IF IT GOES WELL , I MIGHT EVEN TRY TO SELL IT !
HAHAHAHHAHA !
DON'T WORRRY , IF I SUCCEED (NO ! WHEN I SUCCEED) I SHALL UPLOAD THE PICTURES AND YOU SHALL BE WOW 'ED (I JUST LOVE SPELLING IT THAT WAY ) !



TILL THEN , TATA !
