too nice, but too cheap.
everyone’s carryin this pouch on the streets. it came along with a set of limited edition cosmetic pdts frm dior n was sold in both boutiques n over e dior beauty counters. i bought it though i dun use any of e pdts that came wif e pouch, since e entire set wasnt particularly expensive. and i guess everyone bought it for e same reason. it is nice n cheap.
last wkend i accidentally stepped onto this woman at aldo so i turned back n apologised. n damn, realised we were carryin e same pouch. sian. on fri i saw another 2 girls carryin e same pouch ard citylink. was so glad i din make it 3 then. freaky hell…. now i hate this pouch. it’s a bad investment. hmph.

the long wkends.
wkends suddenly became so long. i used to wish that we can have more time together durin wkends, so tt we can go blading, or bring e dog out, or jus simply enjoy more time together. but now, i feel so damn free n it’s gettin kinda sick. wkdays seem better.
on my way out to meet yimei last nite, had this conversation wif e cab uncle:
cabby: gg to meet ur bf rite?
me me: no, my fren.
cabby: boyfren rite?
me me: no, girl lar…
cabby: oh.. dun worry, at ur age u shld focus on ur buildin ur career n think abt r/s later blah blah….
he went on to tell me abt his daughter who’s a doctor n only got married at 29 etc. nice uncle, but he jus left me wonderin why he started this whole conversation. it felt as if he was tryin to console me, but i din think i looked sad or anythin. oh well, but it sure felt nice to think tt even someone who doesnt noe me is tryin to make me feel better. heh i’m jus so easily touched.
i must have slept too much. woke up feelin so groggy this morn at 9am. i used to wanna wake up early so tt our wkends wont be wasted. now i jus wanna laze in bed, n that’s wat i did today. lazed in bed till almost 12 haha.
maybe i’ll go iron my clothes later. i’ve got 2 mths worth of ironin to do.

on this first friday after the brk up..
thank god i had xueyin to accompany me tonite. we sat at tcc frm dinner time till almost 11pm, sharin our experiences etc n realisin each time how different we really are. i’d died if i were to spend this friday alone. fiona is overseas n i jus din wanna meet anyone else.
i told only 3 ppl in e office abt it. e closest ones. they seriously cldnt tell anythin was wrong wif me. one of them gasped n said “omigod. but u look so normal. u look jus like e usual candy, like nothin is wrong.”
i guess i’m really the PR queen. for e past 2 days i din needa try too hard, but i cld jus be myself, joke, laugh as per normal whenever there’re ppl ard.
life sucks lar.
i cry a little every time i’m alone, be it my room or e toilet. but like wat morrie (u noe, tuesdays with morrie) says, just a few tearful minutes, n on with e day. ok i have e book wif me, i din memorise e lines!
i dun lose slp over it. in fact im so exhausted every nite i simply dozed off in no time. but every nite i’d wake up a few times frm my sleep, as if expectin to see someone beside me, but only to end up feelin a sense of loss.
i miss doggy. she was our baby. shld i secretly go n visit her since i have e keys? every nite i watch e video we had of her a few times before slpin but now it only triggers more tears.
i miss my baby. i wish i can jus run to him n be in his arms. i wish i can convince myself tt he loves me jus as much as i love him.
it hurts.
i hate boyfriends.

the chanel loose powder.
today i bumped into Cherry, this pretty fren of mine frm ntu. we used to be in the same committee for sthg (i can’t rem wat) and we got along quite well. i was never really someone who’s into makeup then but i was so envious of her makeup skills that i started buyin those cosmetics that she used haha.
anyway i bought the chanel loose powder that made her face glow and shimmer like the models on e runway, but i din like its effect on my face so i decided not to use it anymore. it so happened tt we were usin e same shade so i offered to give it to Cherry for free.
up till today she says whenever she uses her loose powder she still thinks of me. haha wat a nice thot.. but i seriously doubt i’m that generous anymore. i used to give alot and think nothin abt it, but over e yrs i’ve met ppl who take advantage of me, frens who drifted apart, no longer bother keepin in touch and proved tt they’re not worthy of my trust etc. unknowingly, i’ve become more mindful abt givin too much in a frenship now. i’m no longer the carefree girl whose world seemed to be blooming sunflowers everyday. and it seems like e prob escalated after i started work in this company.
oh well…. the compounded effect of disappointment and bad working environment. *shrugs*

are those online watch shops reliable?
this watch caught my eye..
seems like different websites show a slightly different version of the watch. i’d very much prefer it if it looks like e one in e first 2 pics, with mother of pearl dial.
i haven’t really gone down to e watch shop to take a look and try it on, but there’s this japanese website that sells it at 2/3 the retail price! another american website’s sellin it for $400 more. both websites offer international warranty card from hermes.
shld i, shld i?? are these website reliable? anyway i’m not an avid watch fan so all i need is for the watch to be authentic and good..
