Days of Delirium

In order to return the pleasure, I asked Ann Jie of what she wanted for her (past) birthday present on one fine day in the faculty while we were having lunch. Me: "Which would you prefer - shoes, make-ups or accessories?" Ann Jie: "Hurm..hurm.." *rolling eyes up and down with pouty lips* "I don't know la! Don't get me anything!" I know that wasn't true. Who doesn't like presents anyway? Me: "Ala.. just name me one! Quick!" Ann Jie: "Err..what kind of accessories would you like to get me?" Me: "Ear-rings perhaps. Saw some cool ones in Isetan." Ann Jie: "Hurm..hurm..." *pouty lips and frowning forehead* "I don't know! I don't know!" That conversation was left unfinished as I had a lecture to attend. Somehow my phone bliped during the lecture and she text-ed me: "Lipstick! Lipstick! Get me lipstick!" So afterwards, off I went to major department stores around KL in search of a...

Who says you need a car to get to Ikea and buy things there? We proved them wrong with capital W! Though the free eeder bus and RapidKL bus route U89 were lousy (we waited for 40 minutes but it never came), we still managed to get a cab to Ikea and it cost about 6 bucks, which was not very bad since the good driver sticked to using the meter. You know what I love about the place? Everything! We ate in Cineleisure, shop in Ikea for house goods and chill around for coffee and window shopping in The Curve and Ikano Power Center. Everything was there! The place was genius! I know, I'm writing this like I had never been to the place before but truly, it is a place to chill on weekends, a divertion from cliche niches like KLCC or Pavilion. Yes, we bought this and carried it on the BUS and TRAIN - mission accomplished We even bought a train set from Metrojaya, The Curve simply because it looked fun! (Written there 'For age 3 and above') After assembling - yay! With all the goods t...

Last week, my hommie and I went window shopping and took a stroll around the city - the first weekend outing in 2009, after spending almost 3 weeks at home. Of course, we were 'financially-challenged' (I refuse to use the term ' broke '). Thus, that explains why we only went window shopping and, yes Ann Jie, it was depressing. Feeling numb and just for fun's sake, we hopped from one store to another and one of it was Bottega Veneta. An Italian ' du jour ' high end store which stands at the same level as Louis Vuitton and Hermes, in terms of its exclusivity, history and class. Bottega Veneta signature woven leather is seen on almost all of its goods - shoes, bags and even accessories. And I fell in love with its high-top sneakers. This particular Madison sneakers cost RM2600 approximately. It should be on my next wish-list. Fingers crossed. Bottega Veneta is available in Starhill, Kuala Lumpur.

Dearest bestie, Thank you for the fabulous birthday prezzie that you gave me today (along with the heavy stack of Ekonomi Pembangunan notes) which I totally love it, yes, I do. It was downright what I had always been wanting to buy, something to go with the clothes that I wear. I absolutely love it. Though we had promised not to break the tradition of not buying gifts for each other's birthday (haha!), seemed like you had broken it anyway, and I would love to get you something in return as well. I can't really tell when due to the liquidity of my financial situation (thanks to my Central Bank in Taiping). But I'll definitely get you something. You know very well that I wasn't kidding when I told you not to get me anything for my birthday and presents are only superficials - things of love make-believe. Your presence alone in my life is enough. The one to share my silly jokes, shed my sadness (remember the night I was crying my eye-balls out in First College and you cam...
