♥ Rawr....life does suprise!

i've read this article from a magazine (i forgot which one though)about being grateful for any little things that happened to your life, be it a phone call from your long lost friend, a long rest after a week-long hectic schedule, a call from your mother or whatever good happy things that brings you a smile and write it all down in a journal for which i think, it is a very good idea. somehow along the way, you might look back what you have wrote, and thinks that hey, your life aint that bad after all.

so as an attempt to make my life a healthier and a happier lifestyle, i have decided to write each 5 happy things each day. anything. small or big or huge, even a smile from a baby is counted.

so here it goes, my first accounts of being grateful,

im grateful

...for the lesser of cars this morning. the lesser the car, the smoother the road is.
...for the boss is not around the office the whole week! yeah! can surf porn now.ok la kidding oni ok
...for him to drive me to work each morning and back =D muacks!
...for the light kisses we had each morning. it perks up any working blues away.
...for being thanked for by clients. you know you made my day.



ok! thats all! will continue my duty tomorrow then!

Glen Hansard - Falling Slowly (ONCE OST)

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

Pink cards and flowers on your window. you dreaded the day to come, yet you anticipate the adrenaline rushing from your littlest tingle of your nerve to your skin. do you expect to hush it as some normal clashes? or do you execute it as something beyond abnormal. you tell me.

vietnam is a serene land. i fake you not. in fact it's as noisy as the cats meowing to each other during mating season. rushes of motorcycles. dusts made from tricycles. buses. cars. taxis. people. all making a scene from the past. walking on the road itself is just pure ecstasy. grabbing the arms of another to avoid being overridden by man made motors is just another whole new adventure to begun with. i love how the arts are being placed. i love how the bears are being sewn together in place with a little tiny traditional hat to match with (i regretted a lot for not getting it). adorable. yes. it is said that the people of vietnam values the tranquility of life. it stays true to it's words. little stools and tables decorated the streets. noodles and pork meats (dog meats) serves as delicacy for the taste buds. drinking beers to see how the world goes by. a thread i saw most of them had to pass their everyday dots. i marveled at how complicated the electric wires wired together. such wonder.

the thing i missed most about it? the people. the tranquility. the innocence. the values.

Yay! christmas is coming! someone said im freaky the other day. for listening to christmas songs. i AM listening to christmas songs right now. and whats so freaky about it? i think its normal, don't' you think so? he said its way too early to listen to it, and he finds it freaky, hahahaha. well maybe yes, perhaps its a little wee bit early for me to be in a holiday mood. but i always gets excited and happy whenever christmas is coming. maybe because it's one of my most favourite celebration, thats all.

isn't funny when we were younger, we were told stories of santa clause and the red nosed reindeer. and we children would really believe that eventhough deep in our thoughts, we actually doubt it? and christmas movies showing fantasy elves living on the north pole? hehe. i still remember i used to wait for santa during the night, hoping to see pressies underneath the christmas tree the next day, which actually of course it never happen. but i still wait for it each year till im all grown up and all over the santa stories. main point is, stories like these made my childhood much more livelier and exciting =)

im gonna shop for things before the crowd really comes in! happy shopping guys! =)

i love shopping. ok. im desperate for shopping. ok. i wont feel myself if i cant get to shop. ok fine. my hand just itches itself if it cant feel the pure cottony feeling of something shiny & glamorous that undoubtedly and unreasonably makes my hand gleeing with pleasure. i think this is what most shopaholics will feel. right? right? u dont deny ok? hahahaha....anyway, yes im a shopping freak. im a freakin shopaholic who can shop hours & hours & hours non stop. guys, i think you would marveled at how your wifes or girlfriends are able to walk up and down without feeling tired but otherwise complaining about walking a long walk out of the hot sun. this is perhaps, one of the wonders that only one species in the world had, women =)

i can't really explain why shopping is so damn exciting for me. its just the thrill. whenever i hear the word 'shopping', my eyes would shone with glee & excitement. yes i know im exaggerating it, but thats what really happened in me. if i don't get to shop in a week, i feel something is missing in my life. perhaps it gets me up to a mood that is indescribable. whenever im stress, i shop. whenever im sad, i shop. whenever im feeling depress, i shop again. and of course, whenever im happy, i shop, again. nonetheless, this has resulted of bundles and bundles of clothes in my closet at home.

okla, actually women is not that crazy as it sounds ok. hahaha, i think if a guy read what i wrote, they sure scare of me already. ahahaha. we are not that scary ok, we can control ourselves from our addiction =p.

anyway, the story is not about women's addiction. its about something i found from by doing some online shopping. a new method that strike a wholesome addiction as well, similar to the euphoria of shopping physically. i find it addictive. again. whenever i shop something on the net, i get excited. i get this feeling when i know a parcel will be sent to me tomorrow. and when i received it, its exhilarating.

now i know some people out there is still skeptical about shopping online. friends would ask me why im confident enough that the opposing party wouldn't cheat on me. well, for the first time, yes, i do feel insecure about the idea of buying something online, and transferring your money online, and who knows, the next day, the person would lost himself in cyberspace and never to be found by you again. so i started slow. i started bidding online in a blogger's website. i know she is trustable as i've read lots of comments about her. so i started by buying something cheap. perhaps a tee thats worth rm20. thats when the addiction started. then i start to browse for other websites that does online shopping. i like it when i could just browse in my own leisure time and clicking, turning page by page, examine each photos of the clothes or stuffs they are offering without the hassle of being harass by some sales person. and when i get to see something i like, i buy it. and the next thing i knew, i receive the parcel the next day. and its exciting to receive a parcel ok, that is for me. =p

to decide if the website is trustable, search for people who reviews it. ask people who have bought things from them. are they secured? are they trustable? do they send items that are in perfect condition? i usually do some research before i really get down the road. its what makes me feels confident about that certain party that im dealing with. and so far, its successful.

to start helping your work much easier, i would recommend some nice websites that i have found recently.


Aurora Boutique
they have really nice quality clothes. i have done a few transactions with them before, and i can say that im pleased with their service. what's more, they send the items to you on time.

Shopaholics Unite!
they are a bunch of nice people =) nice clothes they have, and they stay true to their words =) and yes, its save to buy from them.


Gossips
one of the boutiques that sells really quality clothes and items. they so many varieties that you are not sure which to choose!


Cats Whiskers
i bet most of the girls would have heard about this one. its one the more popular boutiques around. it has it own shops of course, but they do online shopping too.


PotatoCream.com
this online boutique actually belongs to my friend =D their clothes are mostly from hong kong, taiwan, korea or japan. i must say they do have some lovely clothes! very much suitable for the princess in the heart in you.



Scoop KL
ok this is for the ones who craves every thing branded, but couldn't really afford one. this shop actually sells branded and i mean original branded stuffs at a much much lower price! take your time to browse through and you are bound to find one that you like =) (ps, they have lovely bags though =x)




and so, happy shopping! =)

i woke up. thinking it was just another usual saturday. and then it struck me. its not any usual saturday, i have to get my butt of to work today. damn! almost every saturday im working. So yea im working this early morning on a beautiful saturday~

Do you realize sometimes that, when you woke up one day, feeling demotivated, and you're just plain feeling of skipping work? well i do. i do all the time. hahaha. But sometimes, some little things in life can make you feeling otherwise. Simple little things that just get your mood back on track. For example, perhaps you are listening to the radio during your drive to work, and the radio somehow are able to crack you up and bring a smile to your face. Or maybe, you are happily choosing of what to wear to work, at least that is a little interest for you to spark your mood up (well at least I do =D ) or perhaps, a date of movie or dinner with friends after work that gets you looking forward for the day. As for me, I tend to overlook all these simple things in life and get pretty demotivated easily. But recently, I learn to appreciate what these things can do to me. For example, I love fashion, so which means, I love dressing up =D and I made it a way every morning, to choose what to wear nicely to work, at least it perks up my mood somehow that even if I felt like a drab, but my mood is better when I get to know I look pretty.

And for this morning, I brought a simply little thing to my office, so to brighten up my days.

Meet Pinky! =D

 

These are just some little pleasures in life. =D

Pinky will be with me as long as Im working, she will be there, smiling up to me, telling me 'its ok dear, everything will be ok' ......to brighten up my days ^_^ (thanks darling~)
