i can't stop myself from wanting to shop.. should i embark on The Compact campaign? personally, i think that indulgence when having the means to is not sinful.. especially when you've worked hard, it's a personal reward.. it's healthy..

by the way, The Compact is a campaign started in the United States by the yuppies some time late 2005.. founded by a group of 10 middle class professionals who were tired of rampant consumerism.. they woke up one day and decided to stop buying for a year.. yeap, STOP buying.. with the exception of food, toiletries and medicines..

how they go about it would be by sharing, barter trading or anything without spending any money.. and the fact is that, they have up to date, 8000 members.. and some of them have even gone further to pledge their whole lives on it because they feel that it was so fulfilling and life-altering..

like okay.. so, if all your friends are on the same pledge and you keep borrowing from each other.. what if it all finishes up? who would buy the new stuff? no new clothes even when it's tattered and torn? how far can your current resources last?

it is definitely a wake up call for us who take things for granted.. but i'm not so much into it.. there's such a thing called limitation.. and through that, we can be equally as disciplined..

on a separate note, i found a cute cabbage patch kid at work today..


isn't she cute?!


straight up from Australia..

she's so sturdy and strong for a 6 month old.. and she's teething.. her eyes are unique too.. different colours.. one's green like her dad and the other's brown like her mom's.. and it's been like that since she was born.. she'd grow to be one pretty lady..=)

Nik and i watched Smoking Aces yesterday.. it could be slightly confusing.. especially when you need to concentrate on eating nachos with extra cheese and hotdog without spilling anything onto yourself.. it was an good show nonetheless..

we walked over to Far East.. and we started shopping again.. hee! i bought 2 pairs of shoes and a belt.. Nik bought for himself a pair of short pants.. haha.. i think i've shopped enough for this month already.. i got what i needed.. new shoes for work and casual, a new jeans, a new belt and even a new Nano! i'm missing some tops though.. i'd save more shopping for next month perhaps.. =)


i bought the bronze shoes because it has a button on each side.. nice eh?!

we continued our walk to Heeren after having Fried Mars and Taiwanese snacks.. and we bought 3 VCDs at HMV! we even took a photocard! headed back to Nik's place to watch Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure and Team America:World Police.. we sure did crack ourselves up.. funny in a stupid kind of way movies.. uh duh....


sweet, sweet love.. i love you..

this month, Nik took the same off days as me! so, on Monday.. i suprised him by bringing us to Mint, Toy Musuem.. not as many toys as i expected.. but it was still loads of them..


Yogi bear!! one of my favourite cartoons..


Popeye!!


this is the kiddy ride that you can find in the provision shops.. slot in 50cents and it will move.. but in the past, you got to cycle on your own to enjoy your ride! haha..


Batmobile!


we all started smoking at a young and tender age! haha..


Nik said that he has the exact same bear!


my mom's favourite, Betty Boop!


my long lost ancestors from China..


my sweetheart!


a whole load of Matchbox collections!!


one toy i'd never get for myself or anybody! it's fucking scary! Pop-eye Pete!

well, more pictures in my photobucket.. and so, this is a by the way kind of thing.. i got a new Titanium card! whoopie! *and i can hear Nik saying, having a credit card means more responsibilities.. check that out! my boyfriend said it and not my dad! haha..*

and so i bought myself a ...


Ipod Nano 8GB!!

and ...


a pair of jeans from Esprit!

haha.. i was seriously contemplating getting the PSP first.. but i figured, i'd rather get the Nano and just have to upload my songs instead of buying and downloading games before i can really use my PSP.. and it easn't wasy to find a jeans that i like you know.. i liked the one at Billabong.. but my boyfriend said i was showing off too much.. haha.. so, off we went to find a less revealing butt crack kind of jeans.. Esprit it was! i think the jeans will still drop off my hips once it's seasoned! haha..

and lastly, a new addition to my family ...


E.T.

okay, i find the name lame.. but that was what the previous owner told my mom.. i wanted to call him Susu (milk in malay).. because he's so white with a few orange patches on his ears and tail.. and my dad did not say anything about the new kitten! haha.. he's still afraid of us.. but he's definitely not shy in running around the house.. =)

okie, got to get ready to meet my boyfriend! have fun people!

i'm down to my lowest self. and i got myself right to the bottom of the shithole.

months.

years.

will it ever go away?

us. words of pain. insecurity, it's a disease.

i'm sorry.

i met Amaida last night.. she was with Richard so, i headed down to Robertson Quay after dinner.. and when i told Amaida what's happening to me at work.. she asked me back, "what happened to the bitch i knew?!" haha..

and today, i met Ting Yu and Jean to send Wayan off.. he flew back to Bali.. aww.. he'll definitely be greatly missed by all of us.. we had late lunch.. Ting Yu had to work so, me and Jean watched The Reaping.. it was not such a scary show afterall.. i like the twist though.. and my boyfriend refuse to watch any scary show.. =(

pictures update time!


on second thought, we all look like we have jaundice!


i'll miss him loads! take a trip to Bali to find him soon i hope! heh.

more pictures from Julia's baby shower!


when Julia was only 2 weeks old!


isn't she adorable?! i want one too!!


she slept soundly even though she was being passed around! hardcore sleeping beauty!


DFSY not in order.. Dila, Syikin, Fiza & Yaya.. =)


DFSY with Julia's mummy, Sarah.. *hugs*

okie, i'm just excited about Monday.. i hope my baby is just excited as i am.. that's because he still doesn't know what i have in store for him..

you don't, don't you?

=P i love you baby.. you know i do.. loads!

:: hugs & smoochies ::

i can't believe i'm so nice that you are stepping way over my head.. and i thought i'd let it pass till i found out more today.. believe me, things are about to get nasty.. and it's all thanks to you..

so, she's the two faced snake at work.. i hate it when she says she don't know.. i hate it even more when she acts like a blur fuck.. i'd love it if you just stay out of my way.. if you're not going to help me much, then you better not take any from me..

and so, work's beginning to show its dark side.. more like her dark side.. i'm not going to let it happen again.. thanks for your fake concern but hell, i think i can manage on my own.. thanks for showing me the bitch that you are.. and that further prove that i won't be stooping to your level.. i'll play fair.. just don't count on me in the future..

all on my own.. you can stop your pretense now.. fuck you.

urgh.. i've got so many things i want to buy.. haha.. well, it's all about indulgence..

is it so? well, like many know.. i've been wanting to get a camera.. up to date, i have yet to get one.. many too know, that i want to own an mp3.. a nano would be good.. i'm still in the midst of deciding whether i should.. and then, i fell in love with Nokia E65.. i saw one of my customers using it.. and it was so pretty, i wanted to get it so much.. time to change my phone if you should look at the condition of my K700i now.. but i still like K800i.. that's because its camera is 3.2 megapixels.. haha..

and not forgetting PSP.. like seriously, i got hooked to it the first time i held it.. i thought that it wasn't my thing initially.. and then i figured, i could have a portable console with an mp3.. what better deal can i get.. uh huh.. and Nik said he'll get me the PSP for my birthday.. but can i wait till July?! i don't freaking know.. haha..

and my darling boyfriend just bought the phone i wanted so badly.. that's because his K700i went swimming at Tekong.. and so he claims.. ;) and if i were to get the E65, we'd be using the same phone again.. couple phone so it means.. haha..

i'm on a shopping frenzy.. i need new jeans as well.. more tops alongside that.. and maybe throw in some lingerie.. haha.. i want to spend money and still have enough for a holiday some time in September.. =D

should i? should i? should i?

my baby's birthday suprise at Popeyes..

with half the crew..
standing last row: Fad, Bernard, Josh, Hidir, Rab, Syadie & Dzaf!
standing: Yan, Awin, Nik & Me!

squatting crew: Ikay, Zul, Zad, Suhayl & Alfrey!

photo stolen from Zad's livejournal..

so, my internet cable was spoilt.. will be getting one from Nik since he has many, many of them at home..

okay.. so, what happened the past 2 weeks?

erm.. there was the chalet for BJ8 on 27th as we hit 2nd highest ticket average for December and we won $300!! yipee.. well, that was when i was around.. now that i'm not.. i wonder how.. haha..

and then work can be such a bitch for me sometimes.. because my manager, he's Kenny.. and Kenny is very naggy.. he tells me not to.. but he does it too!

good and bad days.. good days very rare for me.. bad days very frequent for me.. i just hope that i can hit my target for this month.. which i still can't accept since i'm a newcomer and the target he set for me is just 10k lower than this girl called Val.. how to hit $150,000?!?!

and did i mention, Val happened to be Nik's ex-Marketing coursemate.. and guess what, Nik can't remember her.. he admitted that he only remembered the pretty ones.. hmmm..

and then, the Girls Invade Gig on 1st April.. it was the launch for Preetig Clothing, an all female clothing line supported by Bella Studios.. i was the door bitch.. what else can i do better.. ha! and more bitching with the girls.. Awin, Siti, Syikin, Mon, Zanna & Rab..

i was accompanied by Awin at the door.. and it sure made my job more fun.. Awin is actually my senior from Law.. and we don't see each other in school.. haha.. but she sure knows Dzul..

oh well, the world is indeed small.. or rather Singapore..
