Simple woman!!!

Yeah!! Hub's colleague went to Bangkok and got me this tee-shirt that I wanted!! Got Kat to buy when she went but she did not managed to get it.

So co-incidental leh!! How he knew what I wanted it huh??!!!

So happy!!!

Singapore Malls

Took sometime off to go shopping after Court on Thursday.

Wanted to buy/get some ideas for Christmas gifts and checkout some stuff from forever21.

Yes, managed to buy some Christmas gifts, checkout the stuff from forever21, bought little items for F and J because I wanted to cheer J up abit, a BIG item and chocolates for myself :D

The Malls - all linked from Taka - Wisma - Ion - Wheelock are damn good la. Wide array of shops, food and best part is that they are all linked. However, I got a kindda 'squashed' feeling at the end of the 2 hours shopping probably because you hardly get to see any lights from outside as the malls are all-in-one :D

Nonetheless, the experience was good; after not having done any SERIOUS shopping in local malls for a long time because of the many Bangkok and 1 Guangzhou trips :P

Now the BIG item:









Crown design diamond pendant. Liked it very much when I saw this on a magazine last week and was wondering if I should just go take a look when I passed by Soo Kee. Ok, so I went in to 'just take a look'. In the end, bought it because I like the crown design :) Damage: $400.

After that went to forever21, then proceeded to Wheelock as I wanted to go Birkenstock. Passed by Ion and was impressed by the wide array of shops. But did not shop there as I did not have alot of time and my bag was darn heavy with the stupid files la.

Went to Marks and Spencers first to look at gifts. Managed to get a few! Yeah! Oh and the diaries there are nice lor! But the sad thing is that the holiday dates are not localised :(( Bought chocolate to cheer-up J as well. Called Sandra just to check if J was in office as I thought it would be nice to give her a surprise. But silly Sandra later told J I was looking for her and J called me back. So my little surprise was no surprise liaoz.. :((

Went to borders, found a diary that I like but they did not have it in the weekly format :((

Got attracted by a shop on my way to Birkenstork. This shop - Chocolate Research Facility, sells chocolates with very unique flavours and packing leh!! They have nuts, alcohol, 4 seasons range, milk, fruits and many other very interesting flavours! I bought 2 for myself to try first - Yuzu and Tiramisu flavour. Shall go back nearer to Christmas to buy more!!










Final stop - Birkenstock. Did not manage to get my Disney Birkis because they did not have my size in the design I wanted :((

Another dream...

I became friends with this lady who owns a push-cart at Cathey because I have been buying earrings from her :P

She told me that the rent for her push cart is $2000 per month; meaning, she is already making a lose of $70 in terms of rent when she starts business each day. However, she said that she is still able to make profits because her cost price is quite low.

I made a rough calculation. She has to make a profit of $70 per day just to cover her rent. Add in additional costs like labour hours, opportunity cost, etc, maybe she must earn a profit of $200 per day. From the stuff she is selling, that averages to about 10 pairs of earrings or 8 to 10 bracelets or 15 to 20 bags....

She gets her stuff - raw materials for the earrings, bracelets etc and bags mainly from Bangkok, some from Shenzhen and Guangzhou. She flies to Bangkok bi-monthly to stock up and she only incur cost for air ticket because she has relative in Bangkok and hence can save cost for accomodation.

Maybe if I really do quit, this is a good venture?? Haha....it's not a crime to dream right? :D

Sick again...

This is like the n-th time I fell sick this year.

I used to only fall sick once a year :((

Christmas!

Time of the year to get busy!

I have mostly thought of what to buy for my gal friends...however it's all still in the head. Must make a proper list soon.

But the males...headache la....

Daiso would no longer be selling claypots....

And I still cannot find gingerbread man cutter leh....

A moody day

Got to know just this morning that the man who died at Hilton Hotel is related to someone I know. Sigh. Very sad after hearing the news.

No strength and energy at gym too. Struggled my way through class and got 'ooi-ed' twice by Calvin because simply got no strength la...

Went to collect my ring and passed by Hilton Hotel. Haiz.....

Then went to Jim's place at Bukit Panjang.....hai....all morbid stuff today...

Life has really not been fair to some people; and more than fair to some people. And why do people who have had a good life/not so bad life/so far nothing has happened in their life etc lament and complain about life, still feel that life is unfair, still want more and more and more in life?

I know, me included. Sometimes I complain about work, complain about how expensive branded bags are...

Some of those people whom life had not been fair to probably only want their life, want their life so that they can continue living? Adequate money to live by?

I don't know..what is life?
