Blessed!
After a week in Tokyo, I am refreshed! I love Tokyo! We are planning to return to Tokyo & also explore Osaka next year. In fact, I have wished that every year we can travel to Tokyo! Planning our trip & getting around in Tokyo is very easy. As all the stations are in English, you simply need to know which station & find the line out & head to the line, though there are like millions of lines in operations in one station.

My new work place is very homely, and I like it. Its likes a family & work is very organized, just need to follow SOP to get around. And plus I got my name card! And they took Polaroid of me when I came on the first day for their bulletin board. So cute! I like! Colleagues are good and nice plus I have a male boss who is definitely less control freak, and more flexible. Plus I am the youngest in the team! Wahahhahaha.. reminds me not to grow old and be 25 always!
Though I missed the people at my old workplace, we have been meeting up so often, like way to work, sometimes during lunch and after work on the way home. Its so cool! And we talk so much and see so much of each other, like I had never left! Hah! And I still get perks to attend shows, ex colleagues to shop for me in New York & HKG. I am one blessed babe!!!
I have a wedding to attend next weekend, its XFR’s friends’ wedding. I have no idea what to wear! I think I will need to grab a nice dress and match my nice pretty heels.
Time really flies, by next week its like end of Nov, and I am getting my first salary in my new work place!!!!
Dec will be coming, we have plenty of activities in Dec, including shop attachment, and also buying presents for the less fortunate children.
Resolution for 2010: Getting my 2.55 Chanel, and going back to Tokyo top my list! I need more OL clothes for now. Ha, excuse to shop for clothes!!

I got hair clips =D and the Daiso Flagship store is there, its like 3 levels =D and we found a stretch of international labels, you will find H&M, F21, Uniqlo and Topshop and also the chic shopping place: Laoforet Building. And they sell crepes everywhere!!!!! Yummy!!And across the street, you will have Kiddy land, a 5 level toy shop ;D
2) Shinjuku Station: where i stay, is so commercialised, you have like 5 different shopping centres link together. my fav is Keio & Lumine. and streets where u can find nice & afforadable food. We found Nabantei (the same outlet in far east) that sells yummy yakitori.And our fav fav is Tokyu Hands which is link to Takashimaya. It sells like from Beauty products to household stuff.
3) Pe Pe Center @ Seibu Shinjuku Station: abt 5 mins walk from Shinjuku station. I love love the 100yen shop at Level 8. Its Cando. It sells a wider variety of products and I bought so much tibits at that stop. its crazy!!

‘8) Buy Bath salts and soak! cos in Tokyo, we walk so so much from station to the shopping center and everywhere!!! and the bath salts help to relax the muscles!
9) Go to any department store basements to eat the cakes! the cake selection is amazing!!!!! and all so delicious & pretty!

I put my unhappiness at the back of my head.
As I need to look forward as not to look backwards.
I am looking forward to my japan trip. We did all the planning!!! We are staying at Shinjuku, and heading for a city tour on the second day. And more shopping on the third day to Shibuya & Harajuku, and 4th day we are heading to disneyland. and we are extending our trip by one more day as to have more time shopping =D
Cant wait to buy fancl, visit all the malls, get the beauty products from Japan. Marjolica stock up! and take millions of photos (which remind me I need to go ask XFR to bring his SLR camera again!!! cos he is complaining that its heavy! but the digtial camera effect is not going to be so good… esp. at night will be not so nice….) Cos i insist he must take many pics!!!! take me, can liao (hahhahah!!) cos that guy is camera shy! he loves to take pictures for others only.
last week in HK, managed to get a pair of light weight boots with ribbon at HKD170 so cheap!! (thats abt SGD30) and I got myself some cute jackets, a pair of purple leggings (thats the only time I can wear crazy things in Japan…as no one will give me funny looks) and also a super cute padded collar checks jacket. I just need to wear different things on each day… HAHAHHAAH and i also got a nice wooly ruffles scarf from H&M…

friends or not?
we choose our friends. I love every of my friends, for being them. I do not get to see my dear friends often, i realise the way to keep up with the friendship is putting them in my heart. whenever we meet, the mutual feeling is still there, we have so many millions/ zillions things to tell each other, and laugh together or we may be repeating ourselves like the zillions times, but my friends will not put me down. we still laugh at old jokes, gossip, and giggle. we share new happenings in our life, have the same beliefs is life, and when in doubt they are there to give me a hand.
These people are my friends. they are like the rarest diamonds one would ever find.
recently happenings, of someone who ought to be shamed by her actions. some ppl who call me a friend, but not save a thought for me. she put herself in the centre of attention & call for help like at the most inconvenient time, while i patiently give advices. but she has never in fact took those advices to heart, she blame the whole world or others for her downfall but not analyze what went wrong or how to improve. she is always too complainy till our friendship died as it drowns & drains us apart. she likes to assume things and not being honest about herself. when she fall into shit, i am the first one she call. but when she is at the peak, she never once approach or share her joy with me.
how disappointed i am. and friendship takes 2 to clap. but she insist to be the one receiving & not realising she is not giving. and accuse me of being aloof? ? ? ?
she dun share her problems with me anymore, how can i show my concern when i am int he dark? I am no telepathy? hello????
things have turn bad cos she has always run her life her way & not give out love to the ppl ard her. and blaming is not helping.
anyway, i guess our friendship just drift apart if she realise.
No common topic.. ?
We have to accept, and be gracious… like i learn something from my mgr, she said “in the job, its abt managing people. if you can manage ppl, u will do well.” which its true. and when things dun go our way, i think the best is to step down & learn on our mistakes & try to improve.
and i love to hang out with positive & optimistic people, as they give us positive energy & happiness. who will enjoy hanging out with ppl who blames life, and unsatisfied with their life but do not do anything to improve & blame every single thing that went wrong on others? it’s just too draining!
___________________________________________________________
still, thanks to my friends for the mental support & being here.
Thanks to those who made my day & make me laugh the most till I get intestine cramps and forget my worries…Ha! (Jo, MF, GT….)

BB Cream to the rescue!
I found the ultimate BB Cream! I am so in love with BB Cream!
They cover all the redness if you have pimple breakout, good oil control. Give a sheer look & glow. I have tried BRTC Whitening, BRTC (Blue one also), Dr G ( its good but too white on me), Coogi, SKinfood, Shills, Lioele, and etc.
BB CReam functions the same.
But lately I am dying to have a BB cream that give a “glow”, I looking at my friends; FB and some of them has glow & “shimmer” finally i came across the online spree for Etude House.
First, Etude House Precious Makeup Essence. Contains pearl infused, moist cream, its like a shimmer base and a makeup base.
Second, my choice is the Etude House Mineral BB Cream in #2 Glowing Skin. I want the dewy glowing look =D
It contains SPF 30, matte, and instantly give a glow & medium coverage. And I do not need to blot so much!!! And I look GLOWING…. hhahahahhah
Third set the BB cream with the Mineral BB Cream powder.
All items can be purchase at ETude House : Plaza Sing or Orchard MRT (exit at towards CK Tangs.) or online spree will be cheaper but I cant wait to get my products so I just went to the stores to get it.
And my next buy is the Etude House Mineral Highlighter! Woo hoo!
