Diary of a bangle

Part 3

Hello folks~ I'm back with more of my adventures! My owner went absolutely crazy! Don't know what kind of blow she was dealt with but she seemed to think she is really a Tai-Tai and started splurging like nobody's business. I won't be surprised if I see her living on bread for the next 2 weeks until her pay comes in. Hurhur. That will be her own fault. But at the very least, she did not get any more bangles, or accessories for that matter. Less competition! ROFL.

These are some of the items that she bought just this month! Normally she will just buy a couple of pieces of clothings but this month, she bought these on top of clothings!!

Yes, she got these cosmetics all at one go! If I am not wrong she spent less than 30min at the counter and she walked away with all these feeling terribly smug.

I heard her swooning about this and witnessed how she was sold the moment she tried this at the counter. GIRLS -__-"' I think the packaging was a big reason why she bought it too. Anyway, a portion of whatever she paid was donated to the Japanese Tsunami and Earthquake disaster so I think my owner was doing a good deed in her own (vain) way. To be fair, I know how much she loves Japan. To give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe it was because of the donation, and that's why she bought so much at a go.

And the other day, she bought yet another pair of shoes!! The worst thing is that the packaging was also pink. She never used to like pink this much! She also never did spend so much on a pair of heels! I think she might have felt a little guilty after this extravagant purchase because she walked on and on the whole night without buying any other thing.

So I thought..ok fair enough..she always gets clothes and shoes anyway. So nothing new. Cosmetics is a bulk purchase in a long, long while. Moreover, it is for 2 good causes - the Japan Disaster and for the good of the world. At least she wouldn't be scaring people on the streets with her bare face. ROFL!

Just when I thought she was done with her purchases for the month..after all, she has covered the purchases from head to toe, what else does she need?

Well, as usual..I was proven wrong.

She decided to get some items to assuage her secret desire to be more artistic and creative. I would think she shouldn't waste the money on the art paper and these sticker templates. She's just degrading them! But what can I say? She looked so happy in the shop getting all these arty-farty things (which I wonder when she'll actually even use them), that I relented.

Who says Money can't buy Happiness? My owner proves it wrong. She bought many things that made her happy and so satisfied that it made me happy just looking at her :)

HAPPY EASTER!!

^-^

My second favourite celebration in the Christian calendar.

Awesome.

- サンドイーチ -

Goodness me! It's already Day 4 of my weekend! Which marks the last day of my break! *-* How come time passes soo fast!!! So many things I still haven't done!

Anyway, as promised. My own explanation of fun shots and funny shots!! Haha! Actually this post is for Wen-chan because HappyPill and I have concluded Wen doesn't know how to take fun-shots. ROFL.

Ok so this is an example of a normal shot - where subjects of the photos, if human, smile normally.

Ok, the next 3 photos below are examples of a fun-shot. Where subjects don't just smile naturally. They intentionally strike a pose, whether it's sticking out the tongue or even, not smiling. HAHAH. Pardon my weak explanation. Well, the main aim of the fun-shot is to look different from usual (i.e. rather than just smiling sweetly)

Hope the pictures make up for my terrible explanation. ROFL!

Well..there is another kind of picture..which is the act-cute shot.

Like this! Trust me. He was intentionally posing like this.

I was saying "Come, come! Smile! I am going to take a picture of you!"

And he "eeeee" while looking upwards at NOTHING in particular.

Well done. Top model in the making.

Lastly, this is a Funny Fun Shot. ROFL. The "HMMM?? Look"

Check out the eyes and brows. ROFL!

=======

Okay totally random. I just want to say I absolutely love to eat sandwiches.

This is an example of the fillings of my sandwiches for TWO meals! Yea, obviously I had another slice of bread on top.

*smacks lips*

More sandwiches, please!

- 楽しかった！ -

Heehee! First day of my long weekend!! It was a blast!!

Slept in and lived a day of a Tai-tai. Went for brunch at DTF, shopped around and tried on loads of clothes and shoes.

Then dinner.

OH MY GOSH. It was so filling I was soo bloated I was so close to puking -__-"'

After which we met up with HappyPill where she had her dinner ^^

Oh! This was my dinner. The Mala was soo spicy! 辛かったよ！Don't mind going there again on an emptier stomach to make it more worthwhile. ROFL.

We were laughing so hard trying to take pictures of ourselves. This is only a fraction of the photos we took. ROFL! My stomach hurt from all the laughing *-*

A proper photo of us ^-^

How to make your face look less round...

(From Left to Right)

1. How to smile really happily.

2. How to smile normally.

3. How to smile without the eyes.

Actually we were trying to take a picture of us with our eyes shut really tightly. Only HappyPill managed to get it right. At least, I was closer to "theme" haha! My eyes were closed!

Wen-chan totally missed the whole point of the picture as usual!!

Will post more pictures another day! HAHAAH! I'll explain the difference between fun-shots and funny shots then ^-^ ROFL

- 休み！ -

Yayyyy~!!!!!!!

Weekend this week has doubled! Wheehee!!!! ^^;;

I'm going to chill and relax. I deserve this break!

Pampering time!!!!!!!!!!!

Diary of a bangle

Part 2

Hello! I'm back for my weekly update! Spent a number of days with my owner this week. Yayy! Looks like I've regained her favour hurhur.

Monday was a torture for me though. She walked in the rain to the track with her colleague for her weekly jog! From what I learnt from her conversations, it seems like she usually takes the bus. And boy! It was drizzling and there she was walking in the rain WITHOUT AN UMBRELLA!! Poor me was drenched *-*

So when she finally reached the track, it seemed like it stopped raining and I didn't even realise it because I was already soaked through my metal skin -_-"' I was already feeling sick and she forgot to remove me when she started jogging. Can you believe it?! She went jogging with me bouncing on her wrist. I was making all kinds of gagging sounds but her ears were stuffed with her earphones. At some point, I must have fainted because by the time I regained consciousness, I was already back on the shelf at home. Such a horrid day.

Tuesday, I was praying so hard she wouldn't touch me because I caught a slight cold from the rain and haven't quite recovered from motion sickness. Thank God she left me alone.

Wednesday, she was rushing from building to building for meetings and I was happy to sit with her and occasionally have her fiddling me. But I realised that she has this annoying habit. Before she types, she will give me a little shake so I'll move further up her wrist. Seriously, her wrist has grown so it doesn't give me much space to move so she'll shake a little harder. Fat owner. Hiakhiak. But she wore a really nice business suit on Tuesday which made me realise she has grown older. I must applaud her good taste though, for choosing me to complete her outfit :)

After what seemed like a long day at work, she went for dinner at a nice quaint cafe..

She had this salmon and crabmeat pasta. The aroma was tantalising..mmmm...

And it had real crab meat! Not crabsticks!

And for dessert...she never changes...her favourites are chocolate and ice-cream!

Either she wasn't feeling too well or it didn't taste too good because she didn't finish it.

Then it was a little stroll after dinner before she had to return home to get her beauty sleep. A beautiful place that was a good place to star gaze.

Next day, she went to meet a couple of friends whose faces I recognise! And there! Despite her office outfit, she's still very much a young girl at heart. Aww..I love my owner though she can be really mean at times. See their childish poses!

- 夢の中で探すくらい -

I started off this blog post with the intention of blogging about food. I even uploaded the pictures but something went wrong and the pictures couldn't be uploaded to blogger.

Haha I guess I shouldn't be blogging about food for now. Anyway, I lost all inspiration to write about food after looking at this picture and listening to the song just that came on.

君に全部伝えたらこの 関係壊れちゃいそうで。でも友達のままじゃ辛くて、だから全部伝えた。
いざ君の目の前に立つと、勇気が臆病風に吹かれ・・・

ただそれだけで、でもそれがすべて。

Diary of a Bangle

(Part 1)

I have been released from the confinement of my box for about 5 days now, I think. I managed to catch a glimpse of a calendar since I gained my freedom and reckon about a year has passed since I was banished to a life of darkness. Imagine! A year in darkness! If I suffered from claustrophobia, I would have died! That is if I had a beating heart that had blood flowing through me to begin with. Haha! Pardon me, I have a weird sense of humour. Afterall, I just rejoined the society after a whole year of seclusion, so please grant me some time for adjustment.

So, my owner decided to take me out of the box and put me on her wrist one day after a whole year of ignoring me. When the box lid was opened, I was almost blinded by the light. I almost forgot how the world outside my box looks like. Did I mention? I was a gift to her a couple of years back. That time, she liked me so much that she brought me out so often. I was always the last accessory she donned on. She always saves the best for the last, eh?! *beams*

As time wore on, the frequency she brought me out dropped at a steady rate. There was a period she stopped putting me on altogether. She would stand in front of the shelf, stare at me where I'll be hoping I would be the lucky one chosen to go out with her, only to be met with disappointment when she stretches for other bangles which were heavier and chunkier and not as elegant as I was. The other bangles she had were no match in terms of looks! But she always chose them :(

Well...the bracelets are of another category so I shall not compare myself with them.

As I was saying, she would just look at me and stretch for someone next to me. After a while, I was happy just to see her standing in front of me. However, I don't know what happened but one day she suddenly stuffed me in to the gift box(rather harshly) that I came with previously, along with other bits of papers which I can't quite read what they said because before I knew it, darkness overwhelmed me.

Poof. And there I sat for a year before the brightness blinded me! And before I could orientate myself, I felt myself slipped unto her wrist. Once again.

Yes! She was bringing me out again! She still remembers me! And shortly after, she received comments about me. To which she seemed to hastily reply that I was a gift from long ago and covered me with the other hand -.- Ouch. Doesn't she realise that she has hurt my feelings? I think I should receive more credit than that. But ok..come to think of it, what else could she have said? Errr..ok but at least, don't cover me! Let others admire me too!

I don't know what she's thinking. Sometimes she looks at me fondly and twist me the correct way up. Sometimes she looks at me with furrowed brows. Sometimes I think I glimpse a tinge of sadness in her eyes. Other times, she forgets that I'm with her. But I'm very forgiving. So I will not desert her and stay with her on her wrist whenever she wants me too.

OH! These days that I have been with her, her environment from what I last recall seemed to have changed completely. I no longer recognise the faces with her! I have been cut off from the world for far too long.

Hmm. I wonder when she's going to bring me out again. At least for now, I'm back to sitting on the shelf (without the box!) and can see her every now and then. I hope she doesn't banish me to the box again though. I would like to explore this whole new world with her.

Till my next update! Toodles~

- どこにいるの⁇ -

どこにいるの⁇ 早く私のそばに来なさい!!!

♪───Ｏ（≧∇≦）Ｏ────♪

Whee! Today is a happy day! Other than the fact that my new nail-paint job (i.e. cute polka dots and hearts) is starting to flake an an alarming rate today. HAHA!

Anyways, thank God for the lovely day today. Despite it being Monday, I had a pretty enjoyable day. The time passed by fast and I managed to complete all my work that I wanted to complete today. Though there were a couple of incidents that marred my day, I'm still thankful for the lovely day.

I managed to go for my jog today after a short OT. I have to admit that I didn't really want to go. I almost left my sports attire at home. I was sooo lazy. But somehow I brought it to work and my colleagues managed to drag me to the track in spite of all my whinings and grumblings and inertia. ROFL.

AND I managed to have a pretty good jog. The wind was nice and cooling and jokes shared while running were a great distraction from the feet that were start to feel heavier with each step.

I felt super energetic after the run (which explains why i'm still up at this hour) and had a game of Wii too ^^;;

On the way home, the sky was full of beautiful, twinkling stars.

人家说，在星星许愿，美梦会成真。那如果在今晚的夜空里的每一颗星星许下个同样的心愿，应该会实现吧！

Haha but I didn't do that.

Today is a happy day. Nothing historic or memorable. These are just simple pleasures. Thank God for these simple happiness in life :)

- ヘーロ！ -

March has ended! Just when I thought things will lighten up by the end of March, I was proven wrong! The days of OTs are far from overr!! o(#_#)o

Thank God though. 2 projects have ended!! I have 3 pressing projects left. Recently, I have been confined to my cubicle during lunch-time..away from my colleagues and having to shovel food down my throat while I prepare for the next meeting. C and G remarked that they felt that they hardly got the chance to speak or to see me.

I have been kept so busy that time flies by! (though at times I'll complain why the weekend never comes hahaha! I am contradictory like that.) It's like when I look at my watch and realise in SHOCK that it's almost 6!! But this kind of bustling and shuffling from place to place for meetings, discussions and all give me a renewed sense of purpose. Though sometimes I feel it is a complete waste of time, I am glad my manager gave me this opportunity and the empowerment to do certain things my way. Fatigue aside, this kind of preoccupation prevents my mind from idling and going wild.

Of course, the downside is that I'm retreating further in to my own world. I hardly have contact with other people (i.e. friends). To begin with, there aren't many to start with. HAHAHA! And my passive nature and so is theirs (think Birds of the Same Feather Flock Together Theory) is totally not helping the situation.

SO! Twinnie and I have made a pact! To help me break free from my monotonous lifestyle only to set me on another routine. ROFL! We have a schedule as to when to meet -.- HAHA.

OH MY GOSH I REALLY MISS MY UNIVERSITY DAYS!!!

The days where Twinnie and I meet at least twice a week where we laugh over the same things all over again and yet always finding new things to add to our Laughable List! And the extra effort in finding a module every semester to take together though our strengths and interests are VASTLY different. Not to mention our crazy timetables!! But we always managed to find a module to take together! Wheehee! Not without some sacrifices from either party though!

WAHH! I really love my uni days ^^ and of course YOU, Twinnie! Much love!! <3 <3
