We went for a lovely lunch in a subburban area near her house at a cafe  called PS Cafe then went back to her lovely house (x-army barracks houses). and to cut a long story short i am now working for her on a month trial basis! so exciting!! going to be doing PR/Marketing work to develop the Gina and Jake brand in Singapore and then branch out all over the world in the future! so will let you know how it goes. xx

owen is home!

so after a week apart Owen has finally returned from Thailand, tired but well. He had a long week working and is glad to be back in Singapore. Rowan and I went out last night to the new bars on the waterfront. we had a lovely pizza and then went to join my new friends Theo and Georgina (www.ginaandjake.com.sg). we were going to go to the Lantern bar which is a roof top above the Fullerton on The Bay (amazing hotel in the CBD) but it was full so we went to a near by Oyster Bar for a cocktail! So beautiful as everyone was outside and it was so warm-almost too warm to sit out! We overlooked the marina and it was so amazing being surrounded but such tall skyscrapers which were all lit up behind us! We plan to go to a roof top bar soon to get a fab view of the whole city! right am going to do some pilates and enjoy a relaxed day with Owen :)

running club

had a nice few days chilling out and exploring some more. Rowan and I joined in the running club this evening, is great. everyone gets together and does a warm up and dumps there stuff in a pile, someone then leads the 3k, 5k, 7k and 10k runs around the marina and you get timed and get free juice at the end! Rowan and I did really well in the 3k, and the heat wasnt as much of a problem as i thought it would be. it was about 7pm so the sun was down. So we are planning to go every thursday or tuesday and im going to buy myself a new Nike running outfit if i can keep going for 1 month and move up to 5k :) watch this space!!

hello! well Owen has gone to Thailand for the week so im facing a week in singapore without him! missing him already but it will be fine. we went to sort out our short term visas today which was fine. I went back to the fabric market to price up silks and trimmings, so cheap for what you get and such beautiful fabric! need to get dress and bag making! have been contacting all the local modeling agencies to try and get some work, not sure how much work there is for white models here but we will see. got some contacts for events and marketing jobs so may be some potential work there too, fingers crossed! Rowan has found out about a running group on thursdays so we are going to start doing that-good way to meet people and get fit again! i was good and did my pilates this morning, starting to get into a routine-pilates, exploring, lunch, swim, shopping, sunbathing, dinner, bed!hehe! right off to read my book and hopefully get a call from owen when he lands! xx
