Monday is always associated with Monday blues, especially for working people. For me, it’s often not the case. I look forward. However, today I finally experienced it.
Celebrated over the weekend, and I have very enjoyable moments with close friends. Thinking that this year will be somewhat different as I sniffed of something brewing and boiling. Feeling myself on the peak in my dreamy world, nothing best describes my sentiment then. High in spirits.
There were sayings ‘when you climb so high, falling down will be painful’. Just like when you have set a high expectation and not able to accomplish it, the disappointment is massive.
What’s more damage when it falls on the anniversary day you were born? Feeling like a loser falling deep into valley. Wordless but shattered. Congratulations on having it a memorable one that will be remembered for long. I have fallen sick. Migraine and worn-out for not enough rest the night before over lengthy conversation. I have gastric and then feeling bloated after meal. PMS, maybe. The world just looks gloomy last night.
And then I realize today’s also my day. Chinese calendar, 9th day of the 9th month – last day for worshipping the ‘9 wong yeah’ festival. Western and Chinese, back to back. Lucky or unlucky?
Crawling up so to be able to stand again. Like the other sayings, ‘when you fall, you must learn to stand up and continue walking’. I want to resume the happy, chirpy and witty me but of course it’s not going to happen at a glimpse.
Nevertheless, I’m still happy with all the pressie I’ve got from you all. Not forgetting the priceless precious times spent with my dearest & bestest Luis. And wow! A brand new CK shade!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you all! And I see someone has already realized the harm done is now begging for forgiveness. Hahahaha…..bubbling, isn’t it?

2 days later, I went to Beauty Expo. Lending my friend a helping hand by becoming her model for professional nail art competition – white tips overlay or better known as French manicure (FM).

Have done mani & pedi before, but yet to try FM, especially this one with nail extension. Yup fakey nails. Trying it for fun since I like trying new stuffs. Well, the outcome is nice.
How I wish to keep it longer? It’s not cheap if to get it done outside, probably around RM150-200. But I wonder how one able to have such nails for long term? Unless, she’s from the rich profile and doesn’t need to work, otherwise having such nails is totally nuisance.
Firstly, you need to be careful in handling. If you accidentally break the extension, it will break your natural nail too. That sound so oouchhh… thus, I give myself a restful weekend went shopping with my mum instead of doing house chores. Mum is so scared that I might hurt my nails.
When you have such nails, it is so difficult to type the mobile keys. Taking long time to type one sms using my middle finger tips… (at least won’t have much trouble if I were still using the pda phone). Not only on mobile phone as it also affects when working on the computer keyboard. Slower speed and the many-hits-of-delete key for all the typo mistakes.
Besides the length extension, you also gain in the thickness. And when you have nail of 0.2cm thick, you can hardly peel of things. And also, difficulty to get your fingertips into small areas such as the power-button on tv or the door knob. Worst is when trying to get your cons out! Oh mi… I’ve no comment.
Hence, in less than one week I got it removed. Heard it can actually last up to 2 weeks long… but hey, for what? Again, beauty for unnecessary endurance ~ a definitely no-no to me! Take it away from me….. and now taking time for my natural nails to grow back smoothly, hmm.

It is heard everywhere from the women all times. Even when they are not, they will still confess that they are getting fatter or have put on weight here and there. Ridiculous I know, but hey, I complain as well….
There are varies methods out there in the market to make women wish comes true, getting in good shape, slimmer and firmer. Pills, dietary, de-toxic drinks, jabs, massages to slimming centres. It’s everywhere. Even slimming centres have different treatments from one another. But which one really works? Often heard that there are rebound tendency, when you stop, you gain. Gaining back the weight, I meant.
I have close friends who have spent so hefty on all sorts of these treatments. But changes are not obvious to eyes. Seeing them going through the process and it’s not no pain I tell you. I have seen swollen marks and also lethargic faces after treatment. What are all these for? Forking out not any less sum of money, and suffer for the sake of beauty. Oh my!
Am I fat? I am plump towards the abdomen. All the spare tyres due to lack of exercise, and also often sit once back from lunch. Arrrghhh… hates the bulging. Last Thursday, I went to this beauty slimming centre, with the voucher from my brother for some body wellness and facial treatment. Because I’ve not been sleeping soundly last month and stressed, thought to get this detoxic treatment using Near Infrared system which penetrates 4cm deep into the skin. Ooo.. sound so canggih isn’t it? And I got so tempted to try out body wrapping with some bio-solution in order to get a complete treatment. Swiped my Master to get that… sob-sob, got brainwashed uhhhh…
30 minutes body wrapped, with heats from the Near Infrared system… What a feeling!!! So hot… and I hate getting hot. My sweats that can be felt under the cling wrap made not comfortable and I barely can move my hand and body. Totally unbearable! For just 2% reduced from my BMI. Worst, I brought home with some wonderful red spots along my bikini lines. Damnn it for hurting my skin!!! The therapist commented it’s because the thing heating my bony areas ~ ridiculous remark!
So, no more slimming talking. I don’t need one eventhough I’m growing horizontally. I am contented for what I am now. I rather not to undergo such endurance to gain beauty. I’m afraid of pain. Full stop.

Yabba dabba doo… yipeee….
Say hallo to my new cell. Celerating only its 2 weeks old this week, in style with me in this another year of Happy October. It’s the new SE K618i, new phone in the market. Sorry that I didn’t get the K610i to match with yours,… but I really love yours ‘coz its metalic-alike finishing. Mine is so plastic feel, but still very light-weighted & it’s also 3G. So we can still do video-call, my dear… Oh, because of this facility, I keep receiving calls from my brother who has gotten addict to it. Luckily, it’s under promotion ~ free usage now…
Hmm… there end the life of my Xplore 88, my pda phone. Once, was my friend’s dream phone.. but because it costs a bomb, forgo. And me who’s so hardup for pda & a new phone at that point of time got it combined at 2088. Pheww! So sophisticated but I hardly make full use of it. How embarassing….thus, lil’ regret I do have. ‘Coz the phone is not so canggih at all… it hangs, siggh. But then, I pledged to keep it for 2 years before the next one. And I successfully did, well almost.
And now it’s back to the ‘zaman hangat-hangat tahi ayam’ with my new cell. Yeah, exploring my new K618i… *cheese*
