Surprise Win

Wah Lau eh!

The Great Singapore Sale has been over and gone for how long liao ...... but got a surprise call from this makeover place called Naughty By Nature, saying that i won a consolation prize at the Singapore sale lucky draw, which is a free makeover session with them. Asked me if i remembered joining a lucky draw during the Great Singapore Sale. Hello!?! Does anyone actually remembers what lucky draw they enter?! This kinda thing, got to take it with a pinch of salt and ferget-about-it. They told me that i get to have 2 changes of clothing and get 2 FREE! (Woohoo! Big Deal.) pictures to bring home with me. No obligation. That's what all of them say.

So i made an appointment with them. Got there mid afternoon on Saturday ...... Quite taken aback to see tons of other people also there for the free makeover! Looks like there are many "lucky" people in Singapore hor. Anyway, was there for about 21/2 hour.

This is the result.

Pat & Me








They took about 30 pictures of us and they had to give us these 2 pictures! There were a few other better ones and they had to choose these 2. Told us that since these are free, we cannot get to choose the photos unless we sign up the package with them which cost from 700+ to 2000+! That's right you didn't read wrongly. REALLY! No obligation? *wink wink* Tried to sell us the packages, throwing figures and technical stuff at us. (Blah blah ..... 700+ only, you are only young once .... blah blah ..... 8 megapixiels, high resolution, 300dpi, blah blah blah .... can develop the pictures until poster size .....) yeah yeah .... That don't impress us much, you know. We do know our stuff okay.

Long story short ..... we didn't cave mainly because we don't have that kind of money to spare. :D So "beggars can't be choosers", and ended up with only these 2 shots of us.

Actually not that bad lah. At least we both dun look that unnatural in the pictures. Which is pretty rare. Look on the bright side, we have TWO photos of us together taken by a professional photographer for FREE! Yeaayy!
