Messy Me

I admit I'm not a self-conscious person in terms of my personal and professional image. I remain undaunted by many comments should people hover the said subject.

However, there is one area that would get to me, make me wish there was hole for me to dive into - if anyone could see what was in my bag.

I love BIG bags but I'm not organized. So everytime I acquire one new big bag, they turn into an abyss of mess so should my possessions fall out one day (say from a trip), this is the moment I dive into any hole available.

Barbapapa Family

WL's purchase jolted my memory. When was this cartoon shown in Singapore???

Check this out.
Barbapapa and Barbamama
There is no problem that can’t be solved by this extraordinary couple ! Thanks to a few adequate shape changes and their brilliant imagination, they can bring to an end even the most difficult of problems, and always in the gentlest manner! They are forever willing to offer their friendship and services; and their good faith is beyond question! All this has not prevented them from become the attentive and tender parents of seven turbulent children: Barbalala, Barbabright, Barbabelle, Barbazoo, Barbalib, Barbabeau and Barbabravo.

1st Movie Together

Having found the ticket stub in my wallet, it occurred to me I didn't blog about my very first movie with Becks on 15 Jun. Becks and I.

I don't know about her but I felt excited at the thought of our 'debut' and what we were about to watch - Hannah Montana The Movie (I confess!). She seemed to enjoy it initially until about an hour later when she complained about her full bladder, cinema being too cold, seat too small - the fidgeting began and increased - but all in all, the movie was great and so was our experience together. :)

PS: HM The Movie was definitely better than Transformers 2 *Megan Fox is so irritating with her voice and forever-glossy half-opened quivering lips!*

Newbie...part 2

Part 2....yes, same guy, same post. It's like acquired taste.
Now the office isn't so bland.

One of my very rare book purchases...

S$10 in exchange for a taste of J.K. Rowling's imagination, creativity and eloquence. So worth it!

Available at POPULAR bookstores now.

Lotion vs Cream

I admit I have used it interchangeably more than once. Since it's not life-and-death, I never bothered to look it up for its distinction. However, so coincidently, Duplicity brought it up as if mocking me (are there other people?).

Now I know the difference.

The Chocolate Run

Since Mike Gayle, I have not found fun in books until 'The Chocolate Run'. This is not to say the books I read in between were crap. Just not FUN.

I stumbled upon Dorothy Koomson in a rental bookshop a few months ago and decided to give it a go. Afterall, I have finished everything that my fave authors had written *they are not coming up with new materials fast enough lah!*. I must commend she is the only author I know so far who can swing between drama and comedy so well. After 4-5 books, I don't get the 'mental saturation' from being exposed to the same writing style and similar plot.

Unfortunately like most books that appeal to me, I believe the fans are mostly females *sorry for the gender-stereotype and instinct but I seriously cannot imagine any male holding most of the books I've read in public. Probably takes real guts*, so to my female friends, this authoress comes highly recommended.

Maxims

Have you heard of this brand of chocolate? Each minute piece costs about S$1.60 and I just had a S$3.20-worth of delicacy that lasted only a few seconds.

The epitomy of extravagance!

In Denial?

I still refuse to declare the permanent death of my blog..........................
