Tada!!

I'm backk! Super tired.. but totally awesome trip, the best business trip ever!! I was fortunate that we kept bumping into people from work, some of them rent cars so free ride to almost any places we want to go :)

Met so many people, such an eye opener to my new role. Feeling nervous, more than ever but it is such an honor to be in the same team as those brilliant people. The next couple of years are going to be super hectic and challenging for me. It is time to get serious with work, a lot to pick up in the next 6 months. The competition begins!

I am entitled for 2-days off, the long hours on the plane is draining. Unfortunately have to get back to work, ex-supervisor is here so need to see him to complete my appraisal. Don't think I care but what I say in that piece of paper sums up all the hard work that I have put in the past 12 months. Sounds simple but what if I put it this way - it determines my increment next year.. hmm.. can't say I don't care anymore, can I? all the LV trunks, Balenciagas, Chanels..

Anyway, Houston's awesome - at least for a shopaholic like me! Will post pics of goodies I bought later ;)

I dont wanna grow up..

I was in ZARA today and why is it when you are looking for something, you end up spending AGES in the store and still could not find anything decent.. but when the only plan you have is to window shop, you ALWAYS end up getting something?

Anyway, I actually went to ZARA couple of weeks ago, and tried on this tube dress. It has those metal studs at the top and you have probably known by now how much I love metal studs... ahh.. Love at first sight.. UNTIL I come to my senses that I am approaching the big three-0, I should not be walking around looking like I'm trapped in a teenager's body! eerrkkk..

It is really unfair.. why is it now, when I finally have enough money to shop on my own and when the clothes are getting more and more fashionable, when these imported brands are finally accessible, it is actually kind of too late?





p/s: I think my fingers look kinda freaky in that 2nd pic.. anyway, I am off to Houston tomorrow. Gonna miss starHILL! see ya soon, toodles!

Why..?

I am starting to ask myself the purpose of this blog. I feel like it's starting to appear like a form of self obsession..? Errkk!

I started this blog with the objective of making money. I heard about payperpost from Snazzy and thought I should start doing the same. It's easy money right..? well, not quite. One, I dont have enough readers so why would an advertiser invest in this blog.. second, I am just too lazy to read through the 10000-page of terms & conditions.. Blergh..

After a while it's starting to get quite fun. It gives me a challenge to come up with new look each day, thinking I would be taking pictures and post them on this blog. There have been times when I just feel too lazy to dress up. After all, I am still an IT analyst working for a corporation where fashion does not exist!

Anyhow, however it turns out (after 2 months) I feel quite good about it. Well, while at lasts.

I have been obsessed with the punk chic look for quite a while now. The whole outfit could have looked better with deep red nail polish, those polished ponytail and some dark eyeliner. Was just not brave enough to go that far to work..

p/s: I may be more enthusiastic if my photographer is more supportive! >:( oh yeah.. those Chanel triplets were sold at GBP785. I KNEW it was gonna be a HUGE investment!! well.. too late now..

Obsession

Dear Santa,
I know this is not Christmas but can I still have these...


Seriously if I get all these, I won't buy anymore handbags for the next 2 years. Really.. They are going for GBP175.00 (which is about RM1300), for all three ok! Good deal right, considering a brand new 2.55 costs about RM5000, each? Should I get them..? The bidding ends tomorrow.. (gosh I'm sooo nervous!)


Or these..? Not that I am obssessed with the LV monograms, one is enough.. It's just the thoughts of traveling with them.. ALL of them. ahh... divine.. They're going for GBP200 (yes, for all of them). Another good deal, right? please say yes...

Junkies

I love junk food. Today I have cravings for ice cream and goreng pisang. Left work early at 4pm, went straight to Subang Parade and queued up for Baskin Robbins :) I got myself a Quart of Maui Brownie Madness which is my all time favourite. It's so thick and gooey, who would have thought it is actually Low fat yogurt! Then made my way to SS 15 goreng pisang, I think they have the best goreng pisang ever.. hmm.. yumm..

All my efforts to go on diet is so overr.. I keep thinking it is ok to binge-eat when you're sick. The problem is, I have been religiously feeding myself with bad stuff which is not really helping me to recover. I will be taking a 20-hour flight this Friday so I need to get better or they might put me on a plane back to Malaysia as soon as I arrived in LAX with all these germs (yeah, you can't even enter the US embassy here in KL if you are having fever or coughing, which is complete BS!) Mat sallehs are just pussies..

p/s: I got this jacket with an amazing deal. ZARA has launched some 'cheap' rails that have smart jackets going for RM159.90 and pants for RM109.90. Go grab one!!

Vaccine.. yeah right!

I have not had fever for at least 1 - 2 years, that was last year. I took this flu *vaccine that was supposed to prevent me from getting sick, prior to my trip to Eastern Europe late last year... and guess what? I got sick twice since then!

I'm down with fever again today, took a medical leave but had to still join a telecon in the morning, to listen to some audit prep briefing. Boy, it was sooo interesting that I suddenly caught myself snoring (cute hard breathing, i am sick ok.. heheh) halfway! Can't imagine the life of an auditor, sounds like you have a very lively career.. Not!! (no offense, :p)

Oh yeah, anybody wants to go to Bangkok with me? That'll be end of April. Free accommodation at this luxurious hotel, courtesy of The Corporation for 3 nights! Btw, I am not sharing a room with strangers so you have to be somebody I already know and comfortable with though :)

*Vaccine: Any preparation used as a preventive inoculation to confer immunity against a specific disease, usually employing an innocuous form of the disease agent, as killed or weakened bacteria or viruses, to stimulate antibody production.

Hip hip hooray!!

Nothing special about my work outfit today. I just wanted to celebrate Kimi's glory at Sepang yesterday. I have always been a supporter, since his Sauber days. That cool arrogance, him in that red Ferrari - perfect match!
