wild goose chase?  after my six periods back to back, i returned to the staffroom to find an envelope on my table. of course my curiosity was piqued and i opened it to find a clue to my personal treasure hunt created by my dear EL department! i had mai to help me along as i was taking too long to find the second clue! together, we trekked through the cubicles. i was amazed she kept mum the whole time haha. i had to make a trip downstairs to the hod room too!  after making sense of all the one-word clues like mamasan, butterfly, poison, i finally found my hidden presents! a customised cushion, collage made my mai and sent to the manufacturer by maria. more about the item in the box later :)  i was so touched by the effort put in by my colleagues! it's been a few days after my birthday and i totally did not expect any more surprises! i love you guys! after that tiring adventure, i rushed for my classic mani-pedi appointment at pretty inn nails.  it's my third time there and i don't think i have ever posted any pictures about it yet, so here they are.    the place is rather small and cozy, tucked into the corner of hong leong garden shopping centre. there is only space for three pedi chairs, so don't expect too much in terms of space. however, the size does not affect the quality of the service or even the range of colours offered.  this time i tried this beautiful dull metallic purple tone for my toes.   really unique shade, so different from the usual glossy colours.  and for my nails... the new black shatter by opi! i was so mesmerised by it! you paint it like a normal colour and after just a few seconds, the colour starts separating and becomes like cracked pieces of a whole. pretty inn nails is having a promotion now for mothers' day. for this long weekend, bring your mother along with you and get your second set of classic man-pedi for 50% off! pretty inn nails now for my presents...  really loving the cushion. i'm hugging it now as i'm blogging this post.   definitely something i'll treasure forever! everytime i look at the cushion i'll think of you guys :) what about the item in the box?  here it is!
