Started collecting (_and_buying_) things to put under the Xmas tree
I know, it's more than two months away.
For someone who doesn't understand the true meaning of Christmas, I love Christmas. I love how festive it feels. I love how it brightens everyone's mood up. I love, love, love Christmas trees. They make me squeak, literally. I like that it has so many colours, i like that there's lights on it, i like that we can hang angels on it. There's a million reason behind it.
Maybe, maybe because growing up, i've always requested for a Xmas tree at home (in Malaysia). Both my parents have never entertained that idea, being Buddhists themselves. Xmas trees, in my point of view, lifts peoples' spirits up.
So last year, Julian and I decided on a Christmas tree. we went shopping for the ornaments. i couldn't be happier. I was so excited, it was like Christmas. It was indeed Christmas.
This year, I started getting Christmas presents early. I hate that during the festive season, everything goes out of stock. Hence the shopping today.
Truth to be told, I can't wait for Christmas already.

Hi, do you remember these?
Just a couple of random things about me.
I was introduced to Pizzas because of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They are obsessed with pizzas. Remember the TMNT movie? Oh by the way, my favourite Ninja was Raphael - the one with the red bandanna. I remember my mum getting one of those bandanna things for me.
(And i secretly think that the movie was totally awesome ... and after all these years, i'm still in love with it)
Growing up (yes, even up till now), I've always wondered if pirates were dressed like Captain Hook. Do they have that one-sided eye piece? lol.
The jelly cup. Remember them? When I was still in kindergarten, i was totally obsessed with these, especially when they are frozen. I literally grew up on these snacks.
This is totally vintage. Remember these types of pencil case? Only the cooler kids in school have these. They pop up, they have a pencil sharper, eraser tray, pencil tray lifter and... no they just looked cool, then. (and I had one of these before... but the magnetic clasp didnt work too well for me, my pencils always fell out :(
This was my favourite pencil case ever!!! I had the exact same one. My cousin's first gf (xiao wei) bought this for me. It brings back fond memories...
The money tin. Come on! Who doesnt have one of these? I'm sure we had multiples! They were the tins that encouraged us to save! WAAAAAY cooler than the modern piggy banks IMO. -
Just a couple of October happenings so far
Thought I'll share a couple of things we've been playing with lately.
Tiffany's Mini Bean Necklace. LOVES.
Sigma Brushes
Fujifilm Instax Mini 7s (and i have the mini 7 in pink as well.. bought it years ago!!)
Trying out the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation
Just a couple of those random snaps we take
A little sth for me; a little sth for J's sister's 21st. -

i dont know whats happening to me. i've been feeling melancholy for quite a while now - it feels as if nothing is really working out for me. Life, work, relationships, friendships and all.
You know what they say about getting a hair cut? Yeah, it isnt true. Getting a hair cut doesnt really make things better. In fact, it makes you late for work if you decide not to alter your waking up time.
There's absolutely nothing to look forward to right now. work cancelled my new zealand trips, brisbane trip, canberra trip and now they are postponing my excel training. life and relationship are just the same.
Maybe it's time for a holiday?

Dark Clouds
there's no way to go except backwards - what feels like a thousand steps back; what feels like square one.
It's been a long long time since I last cried. I'm not sure what it was for, maybe it's because my parents are heading back tomorrow, maybe it's that, maybe it's just a combination of factors.
God, please let those dark clouds pass. or at least, give me some strength to get through it. -
Parents' Visit.
so we'll let the pictures do the talking :)
