A Belated Birthday Gift

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 perfect lipstick. Clueless, I asked opinions from my course-mate, Sakina and former co-worker in Etro, Eyrja. Sakina recommended Dior while Eyrja recommended Estee Lauder.

I'm so spoilt with choices. And it wasn't even for me.

As I decided to go with Dior lipstick, she text-ed me again:

"I don't want Dior! Dior uses all the sluts in their campaigns!"

She means Monica Belucci.

So I searched and searched for the perfect lipstick for a gift and she text-ed me again:

"Light pinkish one! Anything light and pinkish! And glossy!"

At last, after much testing and browsing, I opted the Anna Sui lipstick and lip-gloss (because *who knows* a girl still needs a lip gloss though the lipstick is already glossy. Talk about weirdness)

Happy birthday to you bestie! Phewwww!
