Personalmente siempre me han encantado los vestidos de novia de Atelier Aimeé, vestidos románticos, con toques de dulzura y tanta gracia que siempre evocan la imágen de una novia de las muchas historias de amor que habremos leído alguna vez. Faldas estupendamente pensadas llenas de movimiento con detalles de color que las hacen aún más hermosas.
A young man and woman meet on a train in Europe, and wind up spending one romantic evening together in Vienna. Unfortunately, both know that this will probably be their only night together.
“siang kali kau dtg?” (logat medan emang gitu)
“iya kak, saya gak tau tempat nya, tadi muter2 dulu.” (padahal sih emang gw telat)“kok temen2 nya tau?”“wah, gak tau jg deh.”“yaudah sana masuk!”
“heh, kamu knapa?”“maap pak, saya telat”
Trus dia melototin gw gitu deh, sambil ngelirik2 ke temen nya. Kayak nya dia gak terima gw panggil ‘pak’. Abis, tampangnya kayak udah om2 gitu sih, wajar kan kalo gw kira dia dosen. Hahhaha!“hah, kau panggil aku apa tadi? 'Pak'?!!”
Untung gw pinter bohong, “lho kok ‘pak’? Kan tadi saya bilang ‘kak’!”
Hahaa, sukurin lo gw bohongin, padahal kan emang 'Pak' tadi. Ehh dia percaya aja lagi! Hahaha, senior apasih dia bisa dibohongin junior kayak gw? Dua kali deh senior kena! Hahhaaa. Oh iya, sebelum nya perlu kalian tau, kalo disini biasa nya manggil ‘Bang’, bukan nya ‘Kak’. Tapi yah udah terlanjur gitu, kan harus bohong. Hahaha.“oooh, kakak! Yaudah sana kau duduk, cari tempat kosong! Memang sabtu kmaren kau gak datang ya ksini?”"nggak kak, saya kan dari luar daerah""oh yaudah2"
Yuck. But who this Will Cotton by the way? A quick google on the name leads to some fantastical paintings. Take this one in the left for example. Does it really look like painting?
American singer Katy Perry, 25, posed naked on top of candyfloss for her latest album's cover -- all in the name of art. The fiancee of British comedian, Russell Brand, collaborated with painter Will Cotton to produce the cover for her second album Teenage Dream.
"Yes, I posed naked for the album but you can't really see that much of me," said Perry, who is slated to marry Brand soon.
"I love the artwork of Will Cotton and saw one of his works that had cotton candy lying around with different kinds of women in it. It was subtle. I wanted to be in that world and decided to use that for my album's cover," said Perry, whose parents are both pastors.
The singer is in town for the MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2010! concert at the Sunway Lagoon Resort today.
Perry refused to talk about her personal life at the roundtable interview.
Clad in a black dress with metallic embellishments, Perry appeared friendly and joked with the local media once in a while.
"I have a lot of personality in me that I wanted to show. Sometimes, I want to be fun, quirky, weird and all," Perry said.
The California-born was just a girl next door who grew up listening to gospel songs and singing in church when she was 10. Today, she has sold more than five million copies of her debut album, One of the Boys, which contains hits like I Kissed a Girl, Hot n Cold, Thinking of You and Waking Up in Vegas.
Teenage Dream will be released on Aug 30. Perry wrote all the songs in this album and collaborated with rapper Snoop Dogg in the first single, California Gurls. The single reached No. 1 on the Billboard Digital Songs and topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
"I collaborated with other composers, too, in writing songs. I think the lyrics are really important because those are the things that end up on T-shirts. They need to be memorable," said Perry.
"But it doesn't mean that I make the best songs even though I composed them myself."
Teenage Dream was inspired by Perry's life in her hometown, Santa Barbara, California. "I can't run from where I came from, nobody can."
Other songs include The One that Got Away, Peacock, Firework and Who Am I Living For.
"My parents haven't heard my new album yet. I'm sure they are going to grunt when they hear Peacock," said Perry, who hopes to move her fans emotionally and physically through her new album.
"When I was touring, I wanted people to dance more. So I wrote an album that made people move, yet didn't sacrifice the story substance that I had on the last record," said the two-time Grammy-nominated singer.
After here, Perry will be performing in Singapore's SINGFest on Tuesday.

Featuring ten contestants ranging from fire-eating magicians, singers and even pole dancers, Channel 5's brand new talent show "One Moment of Glory" (OMG) promises to light up the screen when it debuts in August.
"One Moment of Glory" will be hosted by Gurmit Singh and Michelle Chong and presided over by celebrity judges Irene Ang and Mark "The Flying Dutchman" van Cuylenburg.
Various celebrities such as actresses Jeanette Aw and Beatrice Chia will also appear as special guest judges over the course of the show.
However, the main draw of the show will not be the celebrity judges or the performers, but the 'challenger' mechanic that will constantly threaten contestants with elimination.
Unlike previous talent shows where audiences only get to vote to determine the winner, OMG will invite the public to enter the fray as the show progresses.
Members of the public can send videos of themselves showing off their talents to the show's organisers.
If they are shortlisted, they will be invited to get on the show from the second episode onwards to challenge any of the contestants for one of the eight berths that will qualify them for a shot at the S$50,000 grand prize.
If the challenger wins, he replaces the original contestant and takes over his spot in the eight. Of course, he will then have to defend his own position from other challengers that will turn up.
The number of berths will gradually reduce from eight to five and then four to one as the competition progresses, with only the top performer walking away with the prize, causing the competition to heat up exponentially as the weeks go by.
When asked about the 'challenger' mechanic, Chong said that it will add a lot of excitement to the show and recounted how glory can be fleeting.
"There was one contestant. He was in and out in the same episode. It was really just one moment of glory," Chong recounted.
"You never know how long you'll be on the podium," added Singh sympathetically.
Celebrity judge van Cuylenburg was overjoyed for the chance to preside over the contest and felt that allowing the public to join in the fun was a welcome change from the way talent competitions are usually run.
"I finally get to do what (acid-tongued radio DJ) Glenn Ong does every morning. Judge people," said van Cuylenburg excitedly. "If you always watch these TV shows and go 'I can do better', now is the time to bring it on!"
"I want to see people who are willing to go the extra mile and develop as the weeks go on. Show me that hunger, show me that want to improve, and I'll try my best to keep you in," he added.
"One Moment of Glory" debuts at 8pm, August 9 on Channel 5 with subsequent episodes airing every Wednesday at 8pm.
THE National Environment Agency is putting a new spin on litter bins as part of a nationwide campaign to curb littering.
Called litter munchers, these litterbins have been embellished to help engage youths to take ownership to keep their surrounding environment clean.
The litter munchers initiative underpins NEA's targeted public outreach and education efforts to change littering behaviour in Singapore.
In a one-year sociological study by NEA which interviewed 1,500 students, 69 per cent admitted to littering and 23 per cent even said nothing will stop them from littering.
These youths also played down the impact of littering on the environment with some reasoning that littering provides cleaners with jobs.
In addition, the study showed that more than 78 per cent of those aged 17 and above expect the Government to be responsible for keeping public areas clean.
These make the youths a key target group for NEA's thrust to instil a stronger sense of ownership of public places and to promote an anti-littering behaviour.
'The little munchers initiative is part of NEA's efforts to reach out to young Singaporeans to impress upon them the right social behaviours in a fun and amusing way. It complements the punitive approach we take towards litterbugs,' said NEA CEO Andrew Tan.
The litter munchers will also be incorporated into a skit to deliver the anti-littering messages in all primary and secondary schools.
There is also an interactive website www.littermunchers.com.sg, to engage wired youths through contests such as 'Vote for Your Favourite Muncher', 'Bin Bin Game' and 'Design Your Own Litter Muncher'. In addition, youths can download cut-outs to create their personal muncher.
NEA has also roped in local celebrity Edmund Chen as its first cleanliness ambassador.
