A Good Purse is Like a Pair of Old Jeans

Yesterday, (SAT, 11/10/08) i went to Plaza Imbi,KL with my housemate, ZAm. i have decided not to drive..instead, i parked my car at my parents' house and get a commuter to KL. i had RM215.40 in my purse. i promised myself not to withraw or buy anything except HP 21 ink catridge, and of course my lunch.Ok it will be just a window shopping. No Buying---. so, we went there..had our lunch at Chicken Rice Shop and bought the catridge. i THINK i am "satisfied" with just that..ohoho..but..as i was "window shoppi-ying" at the flea market in Times Square..something caught my eyes. Oh NoOooo.....Anna Sui clutch purse of course not the original one..but it is cute and practical..aaaand so i bought it!

next..again..as i was "window shoppi-ying" i "accidentally" bought a jade bracelet. I love jade cuz it symbolizes power and eternity. hmm...perhaps i should give it to my mom..as her birthday present.

ok...and..our next stop was Hiro Comic..my anime corner..owh..so many things to buy...and again..I, on the spur of moment..bought cds....more and more anime cds..

oh no..see! i ended up buying things.however.. i did not regret that cuz i loveee them so much.

In my p.o.v.. sometimes...you don't have to go for the expensive one..as long as u like it..even if it is cheap (and practical), just buy it. believe me. u won't regret it.

anoo,hmm.. i do hv a collection of expensive and branded stuff..but i rarely use them.i have nearly 20-30 bags ranging from tote up to handbags and clutches. however, my fav will be Vanessa Bruno leather handbag. i love it soo much. the leather smells so nice plus it is practical in a sense that it has many compartments where i can stuff nearly everything ...frm brooches up to umbrella.hehe and mineral bottle.second would be my GIAMAX Songket Handbag. owh..i like this one. it is maroon in color and is made of leather and songket. love the material. looks classy yet trendy. third is my army green Indian Beaded Tote bag. Bought it during the Indian Fest (Mid Valley) in supporting the "Say No To Violence Campaign". Love the details...soo refine and beautiful.

aneway, don't worry. am not among those of "high maintanence".. collecting purses and handbags is just my hobby. for me, a handbag or a purse..as long as it is still OK / in good condition..and serves it purpose as "our little pandora box" sometimes .where we keep those unwanted things..something secret and PG-rating..hehe then it is considered as ok..and just stick with it..a good purse is just like a pair of old jeans..

No Air

This title has nothing to do with Jordan Sparks' song okay. It's just to represent my feeling for today. Why?

1. I've been quite "free" for the past 2 days...n suddenly..today, got so many things to do. ISO is going to have "a visit" to my dept. so, everyone is pretty busy updating their personal files..course files...and sorting out their "i-don't-know" papers. including ME. last min nya keje.pdn muka.
so, our office which normally IS quiet and peaceful..suddenly bising2 mcm nak ada kenduri. huhu..riuh rendah. soo crowded. but..that's what i like abt our faculty - Faculty of Modern Languages and Communication. We are considered as a big family..verrry big. Be it from Arabic Dept or Malay Dept or Communication Dept..or Mandarin or Japanese or English. They are funny people..and kind..except for some "rare species". hehe..

2. Owh..i've been appointed as a Course Coordinator (CC) for PBE/PBI/ELT/ENL 2112 - Preparatory English II starting from this month (OCt 2008). i surely do have a lot to learn..hmm..As a CC i'll be responsible to prepare the syllabus, setting the exam papers, conducting vettings, and the final exam. It's a BIIIIG responsibility though. I wonder if i can perform well. but, aneway..i have to. well,i'll take it as a challenge. its the only way for me to prove "Saya boleh". chaio2

3. This Month (OCT) will be my Busiest month. i have decided to move to a new house..a two-storey house in Putra Tropica..it has 3 washrooms, 2 kitchens, 4 bedrooms, a verrrry spacious living room and 2 parking lots. am so happy and excited abt it.hmm.. i'll have to pack my things up and put labels on each box yg ada so i won't face any prob. remember what i told u earlier..my mind has a lifespan of a fruit fly. hehe

4. Oct will also be the most stessful month of all. i'll be sitting for my MA final exam. Eventhough I regtrd only 2 papers (Indian SubContinent and Critical Appreciation) this sem, i do have a lot to read. huarghh..Beides of the examination, i also have to write a 20-30 pages write up.huhu. and, the prob is, i haven't start writing it! i im in no mood of doing anything.hellllp.

5. This Oct also (chinese slang), i will be away to Medan,Indonesia..vacation ma..i really need a break. after all..the hardship and pressure..i have to travel. Travelling helps me to rejuvenate my body and soul. whenever i see/ visit new places, i'll feel content and happy. that's the only way for me to acchieve my "Nirvana"

hmm...>_<

Eid Mubarak

guess this year nya raya is the most memorable one. why? i got a chance to meet my long lost friends. some whom i have not meet for abt 15 years..some 8 years..n some just 2-3 days. hehe

Last..last Fri(26th Sept 2008) my friend Ejat, invited me to his open house - 4th oct 2008. he told me that he had also invited our primary and high school classmates. i was so excited to meet them. since then, i can stop counting the days. hmm..how time flies..everyone had grown up..but the most important, our bond is still strong. the time gap seems does not affect our friendship at all. we chat..n chat..n chat..n chat..and i soon realized that we've spent nearly 3 hours talking and chatting non-stop. so many things to say...to share and so many faces to see.

hmmm. talking abt raya..or Eid Mubarak, it reminds me back of my childhood...20 years ago. Hari Raya used to be the most enjoyable moment/day in my life. it is..until now. but, you know, as you grew older..the joy and excitment (the spirit) of H.R faded along the way.

as a child..Hari Raya means new clothes, new shoes, new, tudung, new house decoration,lots of cookies, aaaaaand the most important is more and more $$$$$. Normally, in Malaysia, the elders will give duit raya/ang pow/ some amount of money to the children. It is considered as Sadaqah. During Hari raya, my sisters, cousins and i usually will get not less then RM 100. we will then go to the supermarket nearby to but anything we want....things that our parents will not buy for us..although we beg or throw our tantrum ..enough to make them pinch our ears to quieten us. heh. if we think the amount is not sufficient enough to buy our wish lists , we will "visit" each house in our neighbourhood to "collect" duit raya. some with will give us 50 cents and, those of kind hearted will give us 1 ringgit or even 5 ringgit. well, in those days, 1 ringgit is considered as a big amount of money. u can buy a plate of fried noodle or even a cup of drink. but nowadays, 1 ringgit means nothing. ask yourself...what can u buy with 1 ringgit? a two-ways (return ticket) Putra bus ride ..or perhaps...Public toilet entrance fees for 3 ppl. In short, life today is quite expensive. even if you have a handsome salary/pay..it does not mean you can simply sit and enjoy the beauty of the city. hmm... :( think abt it.

I SWEAR..I will NEVER EVER....

Yammy is HAPPY.
my..my.phew..I can talk abut them for hours. "My addiction" i called them once. They came to my world in different time..ways..but each of them are indeed very meaningful to me. hmm..Let me introduce them to you.

"My Addiction" num 1

He/she..{whatever}..was born on my 3rd birthday. i love him so much. my grandma made him as my birthday present. i rememberd, he wore dark blue cotton shirt.but now, his shirt is no longer blue but had turned "ke-kelabuan". perhaps he is too old to be "My Addiction?. but i can't just throw him away. he is my past. my memory. he is my Bantal Busuk. heheh. gotcha

"My Addiction" num 2

owh...this one ..am speechless. my precious. i've been collecting the cds for years. some i got from my friends..but most of the time, i got them by myself via the net. it took me 4 years to collect 30 cds. i can regard it as a big success for i've been through difficult times just to get these CDs. normally each CD consists of 10-30 stories...however, i can finish reading it in just one night. They are my life. My soul may be corrupted, but i don't care. "My Addiction" num 2 is - My BeeElle cds. owh.. >_<

"My Addiction" num 3

Their movement is sometimes soo swift that i barely can sense their presence...and sometimes is soo graceful and slow that it caused me an unbearable pain. But i like to be their friend. Infact, they are my true friend and my Masters. Besides, life without them is nothing. THey came from those of "high maintanence", but nevermind. i don't care since they represent power. There are times i forgot to bring them with me...owh i feel lost. They are always by my side. They are my Swatch and Polo wrist watch collection.

"My Addiction" num 4

Everything started with my mom. She asked me to meet her friends. well..i did. i met them when i was in standard 4. At first, i don't really like them. soo boring. I AM in no match to them. But i am wrong. Our r/ship became more serious when i started dating them in high school. I learned a lot from them. They are so knowledgeable and smart. I learned abt culture and society..abt history and civilization..abt war and peace..and..and..and...abt love. But, we once lost contact when i entered Matriculation. I was so busy with my studies. I neglected them. Nonetheless, i considered myself as fortunate and lucky. I met them again early this year and our love sprung like the springs flowers. I hope our friendship will last forever. "My Addiction" num 4 is my stamp collection.

"My Addiction" num 5

I love to be near him. Although he is dark, he is sooooo sexy, cool...and... romantic.(o_O) but, i rarely got a chance to meet and spent my time with him. Compared to other guys that i used to date, he is different. he don't really care my appeareance. He accepts me the way i am. His presence makes me feel happy. He is my "Kings Choc-Fudge Ice Cream".

"My Addiction" num 6

Hehe..this one arr. is soooo cute. i love him. we met last year July 2007 and fortunately became friends 2 weeks after that. Now, we live together. Again.. he is of "high maintanence". but..one thing i don't really like abt him is that, he is a "cheapskate" . each time me went out...i am the one who'll be paying the bills. huarghhh.. but, he is very outgoing. we discover and "conquer" many places together.That's what makes me fall for him. he's my first love. i called him my Baby Myvi.

"My Addiction" num 7

owh.....she is my besto-friend. she is an "up-to-date gurl". she is of small figure, but very active and strong lor... her hobby is entertaining ppl. she can play any kind of music. she is a big help too. whenever i feel down, she'll be the one to cheer me up. whenever Zam, my housemate is away, she'll be the one who keeps me company. She is my V3754TU.

"My Addiction" num 8

He is just like my 2nd skin. He is strong..very protective and at the same time "stylo". He gave me warmth and sense of confidence. He increases my self-esteem. Although he is old, he is indeed a good friend of mine. I will never left him behind whenever i go out. He s my pair of "PEACE: TYPE 1 - twisted jeans slouch boot cut stretch"

"My Addiction" num 9

TAO called him Yin Sai. He is cool and brilliant. He likes to wear stonewash jeans, white fluffy coat and a snowcap. He likes to wander during the night time with his yellow scooter. He told me that he is of Japanese descendent but none of us believe him.hehe. eventhough i just knew him ..hmm abt 2 days ago.. he is now my besto-friend. well, he has a friend..i can't remember his name. a very cute one maa {read it with chinese slang}...he is of white complexion with dark and round eyes. i admired him secretly..but nah..i gave him up cuz my friend likes him. Who is Yin Sai? He is my limited edition (hand-made..i guess) TAO plushy.

"My Addiction" num 10

hohoho..THey are soo damn cool, cute and sexy. They had their first debut in 2004 - song: HUG . am a big fan of them..chincha-yo..THeir latest song is Mirotic..hmm.. no wonder they look so sek-shee in the MV..aww. >Yammy had her perverted smile just now<..My Assiction num 10 is DBSK..yeayay\.love them and their songs. Jaejoong-chan, Yunho, Micky, Junsu and Max Ouppa..sarangaeyo.heheheh>

"My Addictions"..they are soo precious to me... the things ..i will cherish and keep forever...here in my heart.
