lazy saturday..

my lazy worm is really active today.. as soon as i woke up, i didn't feel like doing anything and i was only staring at the ceiling with my blank mind.. luckily jen called in.. haha! but at the moment, i still don't feel like doing anything but just hanging around in my bed and with my laptop in front of me. i have lots to do, some cleaning, some tidying and most importantly i need to study! but looks like it's all set aside for me. it's really not often for me to stay in my bed with the nice weather outside and i could just do nothing. well i decided to do some update about me here.

i had a nice dinner with my all gals collegues after work last night. at a greek restaurant called stalactites along lonsdale street. it's one of an award winning restaurant for 2008. we headed there as soon as we finished work and the restaurant was already full with people. luckily we didn't need to wait for long to get a table. they don't take bookings if we are less than 10 or something like that. anyways we tried their pita bread with mixed dips, mixed platter and also a greek garden salad. i love the pita bread alot, it's so much different from the ones that we have outside, it was delicious and match it with the dips and meat, it was awesome.. the mixed platter has chicken, beef and also lamb. i personally like the chicken ones, cause the beef and lamb was a bit too dry for me. overall it was a meaty dinner, it was good that we had a plate of salad. haha! i wanted to try their dessert but i was too full by the end of the dinner. too bad! will go and try there again. next time will bring dear to the restaurant, and prob try the souvalki. wanted to take photos with my collegues but they all ran away when i took out my phone. haha! so only took photos of the food.. i had a great night out with them last night.

still winter..

well the weather here has gone crazy! we were having 19 degrees during the weekend during winter time! everyone was so happy to see the bright sunshine.. and tried our best to soak in some of the sunshine. haha! but sadly it's getting colder now.. well as for work, we're getting busier and i'm trying my best to learn as quickly as i could.. been bit slow at work cause i kept on missing out some small details.. not too good with small details thingy. gambateh mel!! same goes to the ppl in uni.. ^^ must start to do some reading this weekend for my cpa.. awww... feel excited to start studying again, let's hope that i won't fall asleep when i start to read. haha! a short post for now.

true beauty..

i'm suppose to write and post some photos for my b'day but i'm kinda lazy. haha! i shall write about it some other time.. anyways yesterday i was enjoying my journey back home with my new luxurious itouch.. a special gift from a special someone..

i was reading about an article on mX about true beauty. and it stated some statistics on how much money is spent on cosmetics and skin care by women. it was an average of 60 dollars spent every month or maybe a week, don't remember. it might not be a large sum but by adding up in a year, it does make a difference. that's the mind set of accountants i suppose. haha! anyway there are two type of arguments. one stated that what for put on such a thick layer of cover up, it shows how insecure you are.. the other hand was saying that cosmetics helps to enhance your special feature and can help u to look prettier. hmm.. as for me, i'm more leaning towards the first one. i'm not a fan on makeup due to my sensitive skin but i have to admit sometimes i do need some makeup to make myself look better, at least to cover up my dark circles and brighten up my look, at a really natural way, i hope. still working on my skills with that. certainly not to spend so much on cosmetics tho. most important item for everyone, no matter guys or gals, is moisturiser and sunblock.. with the dry weather and bright sunshine, we should take some effort on looking after our skin. so that we won't look like 40 years old when we are only 30.

or perhaps the most important ingredient to true beauty is happiness with stress free. when you are happy, no matter old or young, with makeup or without makeup, your face will just glow. but nowadays is it possible for someone to be stress free? i guess not, but just try to think of something happy happened. i'm thinking.. ^_^

happy happy day!

it's that time of the year when we celebrate for being a year older.. haha! yea i'm a year older again and this year i had great feast for three days with good food, good friends, present and loved ones whether they are near or far. i was blessed with all the wishes and love. it was a really special day. thank god for all i have around me and i really appreciate it! may all our wishes come true.. time for my sweet dreams.. i had a great day..

p.s. i miss you. xoxo

exhausting days..

well i've been a bit inactive here for sometime.. the main reason is that i'm always so tired after work and by the time i have time to relax and chill in front of the comp, i'm already feeling too sleepy to write a blog. so sad.. working life is so not fun at all.. haha! i was talking with a friend last night and i was telling how i feel everyday after work, and all i can say is that there is always better things to look forward to.. maybe feeling excited of what's new to learn at work? haha.. oh yea.. i've started my cpa course but with my condition like this, do you really think i'm studying? to be frank, not yet! but i shall do it as soon as possible..i hope. *wink*

i want to share about my experience selling clothes at the camberwell market last sunday. i had to wake up before 6am to get prepared and arrive there before 7am and also to set up our stal.. i went with a few friends and believe it or not we had a car full of clothes and other stuff.. anyway we arrived there a bit later than others and already there were ppl walking around and started to shop! we had our stuff on the tables to set up and they are still in boxes. there was a guy just pick up the box and look around.. gosh! that was quite shocking. haha! it took us a while to set up the stall and the crowd started to come in before we even had time to have some breakfast. people was bargaining on everything, even with clothes that we wanna sell at only 5 dollars. awww.. it felt quite painful when i saw some of my brand new stuff and rather expensive ones selling at a low price of 2 dollars? that is what we called a second hand market. something like what we have in pasar malam in malaysia. it was great fun learning to sell stuff. it was quite windy that morning and we had sales until the very last moment. the market closes at 12.30pm. by the time we packed up and left, it was already almost 2pm. and we had a nice lunch at nyonya hut at syndal. we were really starving by that time. haha! and the food was pretty good there.. should go try it out. i had a great day but seriously it was so tiring.. it was even tiring than having badminton. i was zombie-ing the whole day at work on monday. time for me to head to bed. miss lots!

lucky or not?

lately i've just finished reading another book, called chasing harry winston, by the same author who wrote the devil wears prada, don't remember her name. haha! anyway it's a really nice one and the story line is really having "sex and the city" feel.. so it's suitable for me to read, altho sometimes i don't get some of the stuff that she mentioned about. but after reading a few books, i did pick up some of the uk brands that we never hear about here. haha! it was about the stories of three gals that are besties for ages and with their different characters and love lifes. how the author twist and turn the story, it was awesome and made me wanting to go on and on. always take the chance to read it during my train rides. now that i've finished it, i felt boring in the train. haha! well i'll hunt for my next book soon.. ^^ talking about besties, it made me thinking.. may the friendship stays on and on!

anyway heard of jessica mauboy? she's one of the runner up of australian idol from last year or the year before. she's really young when she went for the audition and with her great voice, she successfully went thru to the finale. i have to admit she's one of my fav and she's doing really well lately. clinique, the cosmetic brand, is having a promotion. get one of their five day trail of their famous 3 steps skin care and you could go into a draw of getting tickets to watch jessica sing her new album. haha! i wanted them both, wanna try the clinique skin care and see if it's suitable for my sensitive skin and also a try to win the draw to get tickets to see jessica. haha! aww... fingers cross! it's funny how i wanna try my luck on this and didn't even buy tattslotto for 80 million last week.

omg.. it's already august! the month of leo... ^^ may good things happens..

crazy saturday morning..

today i woke up at 7.30am and i wasn't able to sleep back.. that was terrible! how i wish i could just sleep in a bit longer.... anyway i'm still in my bed now, altho i think that i still need more sleep.. oh wells, last night i went out for shopping spree with two other gals after work in the city. and i can't resist the temptation of buying stuff, and i ended up buying myself a new marcs bag. love it! haha.. after some shopping, we headed to ajisen ramen for dinner. nice day out but bit tiring after a long week of work. i'm heading to camberwell market to sell clothes tomorrow! and i need to wake up at 6am.. gosh! i wanna sleep in..
