note to self [21 Dec 2009|09:55am] suigenesis If you need to say it, then it probably isn't true. People with their "I'm so great" complex, thanks for the laugh. On another, more positive, note, I am heading to Osaka in 2 days and Thailand in 3 days. Going to be sipping on a Bangkok Cooler while I get my tan on at the beach! I really want to check out all the sites especially the floating boat market. I'm trying something new this trip. I'm going for 2 weeks and I'm only packing a medium size backpack. I don't know how to pack lightly. Like the Japanese would say, "Ganbaru!" (I will try my best!) I have a new addiction - shopping on eBay. Actually, it's more of a relapse. I go through phases of eBay addiction every now and then. The only justification I can give myself is that not all the items are for me. The thing I am eying most is a Chanel bag. It's $3000. I would never buy it but it's so freaking hot. The Japanese girls and their yearning for high-end, overpriced, luxury items is getting to me. And then I remember, I'm going to Thailand! Cheap, bootlegged merchandise, here I come!! 2 comments|post comment

Eventful week! [19 Dec 2009|12:34am] mizz_xtine I've had such an eventful week this week. As most of you who follow my twitter know, I finally bought myself a new car! I am so in love with it and don't regret it at all. I ended up gettin my Audi Q5, black on black baby!! Everyone thought I was a freak because I was so calm (and still am) about buying my car and not like OMGWTFBBQ about it. I've worked really hard and saved up a long time, and its finally sitting nicely in my driveway. :) Surprisingly I didn't experience buyers remorse like I normally do - this time I just felt hesitant telling people that I bought the Audi... I really didn't want to feel like I was rubbing it in their face, that is totally not me. Everyone keeps reassuring me that I've worked hard for it and I deserve it (even my boss said so! lol), so I'm just letting it sink in. I sooo have the best lights in the neighborhood! lol Wish I had pics - still trying to get used to my Nikon DSLR.. Will post some soon, hopefully! I'm busy enjoying driving it! :D So I was approached earlier today about another job position within my company. I guess the CEO and EVP love me and wanted to take me out from my bean-counter corner, and put me in a different position. I had to kindly decline it - it's not for me. I dedicate a good amount of hours for my work already, and work odd hours due to Intl operations, but I can't do the 24 hours thing. I want to enjoy my life. It's comforting to know that words like "intelligent" "smart" "kick ass" are associated with me. LOL The CFO joked and was like "it's good to be loved eh?" lol. I felt really good leaving work and a bit flattered. All my hard efforts are paying off! I cant believe its Christmas and 2010. My bro and his family are coming down this Christmas, I'm SO excited, I miss the kiddies. :P Excited for everything that's to come! Wishing you all the best for this Holiday! *hugs* 2 comments|post comment
