Packing

I dun even know why I bother to clean/pack my room.

Cos I'm really a slob when it comes to keeping things neat & tidy..They could be, but not for long I assure you.

But I guess I needed to, or at least I tried. So I spent the day sorting & tossing, cleaning the dusty top shelves, mopped up the floor, laughed & reminisced over old pictures, rediscovering stuffs I never knew/forgot existed..Emotions continue to run amok but i tried to ignore them, the best I could.

My girly indulgence..

My effort at going green, with style of cos. Plastic bags are a nuisance anyhow.

I banish dust from the crevices daintily; its a face puff from some korean makeup store.(works great everytime!)

3d stickers on my lappy. I got them from japan & pieced the bits into this design.

Shades & timepieces dun have to cost much but they make a statement.

I keep random mags for beauty & make up tips.

Myriad accessories to pretty up a simple outfit. Bling bling!

Bought from Daiso; great for anything I use it for my nail colours.

Sleep still does not come. Sigh.

That was the last time I felt free. Or so I remembered.

GOOFY.

HUH??! WHO ?ME?

This is so exasperating funny I had to share.

My boy, Caspar loves chocolate. Except that dogs aren't supposed to ingest chocolate as its supposedly toxic and if complications arise, may cause death.

Which is why we panic when we find he had been stealing some. Remnants of ferrero gold wrappers in his mouth & around the 'scene of crime'. Well, this isn't the first time we caught him.

They could be in a grocery bag or some shelf he could reach, and he could always sniff it out, pick it out from the midst of other stuff and quickly (& quietly) gobble it in some corner.

He has also stolen & gobbled:

- 1 old chang kee curry puff (leading my mum to think I had 2 cos I ate one and she bought 2 till we found the pathetic paper thingy in shreds under the sofa.

- 1 four leaves hot dog bun ( again, stole it from the low coffee table, depriving us of 1 breakfast item)

- Chocs (mainly ferrero rocher and twice cadbury choc mint drops)

And he looks so content when asleep I can't help but feel like smiling. :)

busy.

When the going gets tough, the weak goes shopping :p

The damage: Wait till the (dreaded) bill comes.

The items: Shades, grey cami and long cardi in cobalt blue,cute grey dress with cute buttons,metallic silver peep-toe pumps,& some random stuffs from Daiso plus an expensive haircut & styling tips for sexy hair lol.

Has been a dizzy week. Glad the weekend's rolling round again.
Am going to have a fruitful & enjoyable one. Movie with colleagues, meeting my very much-missed batchgals for coffee & borders thereafter. And then gliding (I hope!) with my fave people on Sun. Can't wait.

Have a smashing weekend.. I literally live for Fridays, its my fave day of the week.. & well I happen to be born on a late fri night. :) Little wonder I love fridays & am a night person.

Later.

Opportunist.

I don't like all that is happening at home now.

Home to me, is a familiar ground, a place where u know so well. It may not be perfect, or the very perception of people's ideal.

My home is far from ideal, and that's the way it has been for as long as I remember.

But when someone unknown starts showing up & making changes to the space I call my own, all I want to do is to lash out and scream. I say unknown because I think I do not know the underlying motives, if any.

It makes me anxious, yet helpless at the same time. Being prey to circumstance is such a nuisance.

I have enough on my plate now. Too much, in fact.

I need peace, serenity & a promise that things will not go the other way.

God, please take away my nightmare.

What have u learnt about yourself today?

Yepz its Sat!

How the week whizzes you by! Well, my work week has been cut short by this impromptu blessing in disguise incident. Feeling merry cos going to ktv later with my fave people :) I love singing!! Pictures be up later.

Friends. Where would we be without them?

Sometimes u find friendships in unexpected places. Its important that friends see who you are & accept & love u jus the way you are.

I'm really grateful for someone who actually tells me stuffs about me that no one does.

Riding in the car, we went thru lengthy conversations, flitting from one topic to another.

We all go thru different experiences in life & as such, exhibit behaviour that might eventually become a character trait. That is why i think its so important to be self-aware at different stages of one's life. At the end of the day, I just hope to become a better person.

Self improvement books are awesome sometimes & provide great insight but its nothing compared to a friend who will not only talk to you, but with you & at you. Awesome.

A little apprehensive about posting this one.

I've been treating my blog as an outlet for frustrations and self-expression thru words, but i can't deny that I've been getting a bit of attention from friends, acquaintances etc. Truth is, i've always been a private person, even among friends I considered to be those I really care about & vice versa.

I'm not the kind who likes to trouble my friends with my endless ramblings, somehow. Its nice to share, sometimes. But honestly, talking about things that are difficult and cant be changed.. is a waste of energy on what i perceive to be the negative.

They say everything happens for a good damn reason.

Just a month or two ago, I've been busy filling up my time with activities.. movies, outdoorsy stuffs, just about anything that could get me out of the house. Catching up on past friendships, making new ones.. that the whole time it feels like a dizzying array of faces, events.. it makes me kinda disoriented.

Till i fell & hurt my knee (quite badly) while coming down a slope on ecp while rollerblading.What i thought was some scrapes on the knee that would heal with time (& hopefully no scar) ended up swelling at the knee joint, which means i cant straighten it out to walk..which means i get to stay home on mc.

Thats when i realised my mum thinks I've been going out too much it makes her worried. If not for this episode, i wouldn't have known my sis cares enough about me to apply ointment for me,or to bring me chocolate in bed.

I'm always learning more about myself thru incidents & events like this; & it lets me learn about those around me as well.

I honestly need some "me" time. Just the good old hanging at borders with a fave book in hand & a cuppa of frothy cappucino sounds really perfect. Oh, and someone who can make me laugh without even trying. :)
