Being internetless sucks
2008-06-05 16:28:00 Yay! I've got no internet connection at work. How excellent is that???!I'm so ecstatic about it that I could just die!This means that I can concentrate and be more productive and get more work done; instead of getting distracted by incoming IMs.Dammit no Gtalk at work is stressing the shit out of me!!!!Life at work still hasn't gotten any better; being internetless makes it even worse.Was feeling a bit blue, bought a pair of pants @ Zara. Dropped by Coach to check out the items that they have on clearance. The signature Ergo tote that I had my eyes on since last year is on sale! After 30% off it's RM1172.50 - still pretty expensive? I could probably afford it but considering the fact that I'm super broke at the moment...Oh well. Wanna go to The Gardens this weekend to check out the clearance there. Should I leave my credit card at home? Hmm.Anyways. Why so many things to buy yet so little money? Why prices of everything are going up yet salary increment is so little? Income do...

Like where the hell am I supposed to put all my precious stuff and my laptop?? Bloody hell.On top of that, your boss keeps asking you to do petty stuff and then drops you an email;"Thank you for your help on the matter. Really appreciate it."DO YOU???!!!I don?t get it. like cant you do it yourself? All it takes is a simple phone call or an email, that?s it. but of course, I have to do the dirty work everytime.

2008-05-31 20:48:00 I was out just now. Unbelievably, he was there too. At the same place. How cool is that? Totally unexpected. What a delightful coincidence!I brought back work; so that I could work from home this weekend. I haven't done a single thing. Sigh.And I'm off to bed with a smile on my face, instead of cracking my brain so that I can finish off my work before the deadline. Better luck tomorrow, I hope.Nites!
A mad day at work
2008-05-28 08:34:00 I?ll be changing departments and need to relocate. 'Goodbyes' and changes are hard.Stress!! So much work!!Boss is getting on my nerves!! Always pressuring me to do stuff, like I cant remember that I?m supposed to do it or he?s worried that I can?t get it done on my time. hello, I?m not a little kid anymore. Okay I admit, I procrastinate, chat and go MIA during office hours but I always deliver. I ensure I give more than 100% and produce quality work. Perasan, but true. I don?t just do some cincai work. Only losers do that hahaha. So stop pressuring me lar, I know my deadlines and responsibilities. Just leave me alone in peace instead of disturbing me when I?m doing YOUR work!!And currently the office is so noisy that I can?t concentrate or even hear my own thoughts. My brain needs to be actively thinking and I can?t focus. So many distractions!Great, just what I need.Sungguh sakit hati.

Quickie updates
2008-05-24 10:45:00 So many things, so little time!Just a quick update. After coming back from my mini vacation, I'm swamped with work. I even brought work home and I havent started on a single thing. Procrastination rulez!I just got back from The Curve. Bought clothes (ack!) at MNG and also tapau-ed cupcakes from Cupcake Chic. Cupcakes yang sangat mahal! 1/2 dozen for RM25. Even Big Apple / J.Co is much cheaper.It's been 5 days since I left Phuket and I'm still tanned -.-' ..anyhow, Phuket was marvellous! Although I am now very broke and my face is dry and peeling, due to the sunburn. The bungee jump was excruciatingly amazing! I couldnt believe that I bungee jumped and never thought I'd have that much "guts", for someone who's really afraid of heights. I think if you'd ask me to do it again, I would! But this time, I'd very much want to jump off a bridge instead of a crane like in Phuket.Brief recap on Phuket trip;Day 1Checked in hotel (so very dodgy)Walked around PatongDinner and shoppingSi...

Tomorrow is my long awaited mini vacation: PHUKET!! :D ..beautiful beaches, here i come!It's late and I still have yet to pack so this is just going to be short.Marié Digby was incredible. Uber-fantastic. I was totally mesmerized. So pretty too! As usual, OU was packed with cars which made the hunting for a parking space really absurd. We were so worried that we'd missed Marié's performance but thank goodness we made it in time. There were so many people! People were even standing on chairs; bff and i were trying to find a perfect spot so that we could get at least a clear view of Marié Digby. Sweaty process i tell ya, but it was worth it :DShe didn't perform that much songs; Say It Again, Stupid For You, Beauty Walking Away, Paint Me In Your Sunshine, Unfold, Fool, Umbrella (not in order of performance) ... i think that's about it.

2008-05-12 09:22:00 Yeah my face is all red because I?m having a temperature and my nose is making sounds as if I?m crying.When we were browsing thru Topshop after lunch, I caught my reflection in the mirror- OH GOD. I looked horrible! Like a sick person. And even worse, like I just got out of bed ;oThis is not good.

2008-05-10 11:10:00 I'm back! As much as I like to be out and about, isn't home the best? As they say, home is where the heart is. It's where I belong, where I feel safe.In this week alone, I've been on the plane FOUR times. Wow.All in all, I had a good trip. The meetings with vendors and colleagues never failed to impress me. These people really know their stuff. They ask intelligent questions and give brilliant feedbacks. I wonder when I can reach that stage.I'm tired. It's time for a nap and after that, laundry and some face pampering. After 5 and a half days of staying in hotels, my face is really dry. More About: Home , Sweet , Home Sweet Home
How do you satisfy a shoe fetish?
2008-05-09 09:12:00 My boss has just rang me up; said that he wanted to go to The Spring to get something for his daughter.Know what this means? Charles & Keith! (again)Before we actually go there, I'm contemplating- should I step into the store and buy or just take a looksie? If I do buy, the salesgirls there would think that I'm probably mad ahaha. But then again, that means more money coming in for them right? And yeah, more money coming out from me -_-' (even though I can get that 10% discount)So I've bought 3 pairs yesterday. That should be enough right? Y'know, there's something about shoes. I have almost every colour and style to match my outfits and you can have a beautiful outfit but shoes are what puts the icing on the cake.Help! So okaylar since it's gonna cost me more money I'm just gonna buat dunno. I shall resist the temptation! ;) More About: Fetish , Shoe
Greetings from the cat city!
2008-05-09 07:57:00 I was supposed to write yesterday but I wasn't feeling too well so I went to bed early.I went to The Spring yesterday. Really cool mall. Felt like I was back in KL haha. Anyway, first stop was Charles & Keith! There were SO many pretty shoes and I was spoiled with choices. Seriously didnt know which ones I should buy. Ended up buying shoes for work. I dont wear flats; I'm not a flats person. And when I go out I prefer to wear kitten heels/slippers/platforms/wedges. I love any high heel shoes though, absolutely in love with 'em. I wanted to buy a pair of wedges but in my mind I was thinking what kind of shoes matches with the working clothes that I already have.I came out of the store with 3 pairs of shoes. Honestly, I wanted to buy more! Keke. But...over lar. And due to money and space constrain in my luggage bag, 3 pairs was all I could afford :PDamage done: RM383 *faints*I even became a member of Charles & Keith; which entitles me to 10% discount storewide.Okay that's ...

Greetings from the birthplace of Malaysia's petroleum industry!
2008-05-06 17:27:00 Here I am, in a hotel room; in the city where Malaysia's first oil well was dug.The room I'm in now looks like a just typical hotel room; definitely cannot beat the room that I stayed in yesterday. A wireless network connection is detected, but there's no signal; hence I'm not able to connect to it. Thank God for 3G which allows me to get connected on the go :)I flew in here on MASwings; it was my first time on a fokker plane!Anyways. When we were strolling at the mall after dinner, I saw a PINK Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS which was going for RM1088! I wonder how much is it back in KL?I WANT!! I LIKE!! I currently own a Sony CyberShot DSC-T3 which I bought in 2005 i think. It's still awesome but it's silver, not pink. Keke. Oh well.Pretty tired today due to meetings and traveling.

Weeeeee :D(not hoping for it though, just to make myself feel good)Anyway. I might be internetless! (what? no gtalk??) Borrowed a 3G data card so that I would not be internetless; but to my disbelieve- the software/installation/cd kit for all the 3G cards that we have at the office are MISSING! I seriously, honestly do not know how the custodian does her job. So how? I borrowed the 3G card anyway, hoping that I'd be able to find the installer whatever on the net. And I did!But.

2008-04-29 15:48:00 I'M IN LOVE WITH THE NEW COACH ERGO!Earlier this year, when I purchased my fourth Coach bag (Style No 6280 in white) I thought that would be my last Coach bag. At least for this year anyway. Well it still is though :)Received an email recently from Coach announcing the launch of the new Ergo collection. Thought that it wouldn't be available here that soon but apparently it is!! I pass by the Coach boutique every morning on my way to the office. Most of the time I'll be scurrying away as I'm late so I don't really pay attention to what is being displayed. Cannot lah. If everyday admire Coach handbags I'll be so depressed coz I cant buy all of 'em! Haha. But today the new ergo handbag caught my eye! And ehem.

All I can think of is that boss is going overseas and wont be in this whole week?which means I can play hooky! Keke.Actually I cant. Coz there?s work and reports to be done and I need to straighten out a few things before I go off next week.Next week is my turn to be out of the office the whole week! Together with boss lah. It would be my first time travelling with him. I wonder what topic we shall talk about? Work, unquestionably. General issues and what not, I suppose. Definitely not about my personal life though.And week after next is my sweet escape to the biggest island in Thailand :DAck! I?m in holiday mood already. How to do work like this?Tee hee.

Where did my weekend go?
2008-04-27 14:49:00 This weekend was all about sleeping. I dedicated my time to catch up with sleep and just you know, chilling at home and enjoying the company of my parents. Oklar, it?s more like I refused to go out. Eh, actually I did. To the tailor and Big Apple. But anyway. I?ve recovered 90% from my zits (yippie!) BUT there?s this one stubborn one on my nose. I have such a hard time covering it up with a concealer- just cant get it right. I cant go out with a red bump on my nose okay. I feel like Rudolph. And it doesn?t help that tomorrow morning I have a meeting with a vendor!!So I was supposed to clean my closet and vacuum my room but since procrastination is my bestest friend, I didn?t do any of those.It certainly didn't help that this weekend my internet was so freaking slow.

I do, tons of things in fact; yet there's this feeling like something's missing somewhere.Weird. I complain that time passes slow when actually most of the time I find 24 hours a day is not enough. It's ironic though; when I want the time to stop so that I can savour the moment, it passes really fast and the next thing I know the fun times are over. When I want the time to pass by fast, it slows down. In fact, I think the clock has just gone dead.I keep thinking that everyday is Friday; because I keep on wishing that I don't have to go to work the next day.Work. It's such a drag. I think at some point I'm being taken for granted. Work has not been keeping me happy lately. Just a phase, and a challenge that I have to brave through I guess. And I will succeed.

I often ask where did he come up with that hypothesis? He said it?s because more often than not I always get the stuff that I want. I reckon he?s referring to material stuff here.

2008-04-14 16:48:00 So I went to check out the Pikom PC Fair yesterday. I dont understand how pregnant ladies and senior citizens can stand being in such a crowded place. I also dont understand how people can bring babies or babies in stroller too. The place was jammed pack with human beings. Even I cant stand it. Not to mention that after 2 long rounds of going from Exhibition Hall 1 to 5, I was tired, hungry and thirsty. And there was only 1 exit which was at Hall 5 which was pretty dumb.I went to accompany a friend and with the intention of not wanting to buy anything.

2008-04-11 20:25:00 I saw Definitely, Maybe last weekend. It was sweet and enjoyable; not to mention that Ryan Reynolds was cute. I cant remember seeing him on the big screen before but I loved to watch him in Two Guys, A Girl and A Pizza Place. All in all, it is a romantic comedy which shows that although along the way we might make mistakes in life/love, there is always a silver lining in every cloud. Definitely, Maybe closes with a happy ending and it goes to show that finding a true, lasting love is possible after all. Okay, that?s just too cliché...Anyway, I was searching high and low for quotes from the movie; particularly when a drunken Will told April that he likes her. Except for the life rehab part, of course ;) But I could not find it! So disappointed! Last resort- download lor.
