The Love Hate Relationship with CK Undies

Disclaimer: This entry will increase any pro-shopaholic urge to purchase thing out of impulse. If any incident happened, this has nothing to do with this author.


Xmas is rather boring occasion for me. This year is mostly dinner with relative on Xmas Eve and watch Christmas TV programs. Xmas itself was beautiful, sunny 25 degree day but no friends wanted to go out with me, they were busy with their Church, so I was left alone......

Anyway, apart from that, there is something I have been looking forward to! Boxing Day Sales!!!!! I have talked about this day since 2 months ago! Just imagine how anticipating I was! I was hoping I'd have started working, so I can go crazy and start buying all the CK undies that I want. Alas, this dream did not come true. Maybe next year then!

So today I woke up at 6am. Yes, you hear me right, 6 am! And step out of the house 1 hour later with my cousin for the shopping extravaganza! Reached the CBD at 7.30am and it was already quite full with people, especially Myers Supermarket which opened at 5am today!

The first place we attacked? Underwear section! Most of the size were depleting, but there are still some nice one. Trying to keep myself spending a fortune over there, so I end up buying only ONE CK underwear....... I wasn't very happy about this....

Anyway, My cousin was having this impulsive purchases cause things were quite cheap over there. And when were at the Basement, he brought more stuffs while I was stuck with oversized short shorts or one size too small short. I was even more pissed......

Until I finished our very quick morning tea (sushi from Sushi Sushi), I walked into this magnificent shop and I found my Short Shorts!!!!!! I love short shorts (more pictures below), and they actually have size!!!!! So I was out with two lovely purchases!

Then followed by a few after that, all in Melbourne Central! So after 6 and half hours of retail therapy we finally gave up. I was kinda broke, but I did not over spent! Which is a Plus!!!! I was planning to spend only $150 for today, looking at the amount of zeros in my bank, and I only spend $140!!!!

Okay, I was busy shopping, didn't have time to sit and take pictures. So these are the pictures I took when I was going home, and when I am at home (after rejuvenated from my slumber nap!)
Levi's outlet store at DFO (Direct Factory Outlets). People acted as if the stuffs in the shops are free. A bloody long queue for Guess shop over there as well..........

My purchases!!!!! I don't know why they are upside down, can't seems to do anything about that. So please don't strain your neck by looking at them. Cause I have them in individual photo!

Can you see me naked from the reflection? This arvo is a bit hot to wear any tees! Got them cause my old one is spoiled on the day itself. Just so lucky to have this for only $10!

My Short shorts!!!!! If they have anything shorter, I will have brought them!!!!!
My two shirts, I can't seems to find anything I want, and by the time I have mood to buy them, I have already reached my limit....
Happy me with my happy purchases!!!!!

I am not doing this

Yes, you hear me right. I am not going to write what stupid new year resolution this year. I don't reckon I had done any most of the year. Cause I know I won't able to keep the promise (to myself). I can keep promises with other people, but not with myself. hehehehe

So I refuse to make any this year. Even though I refuse, everyone knows what I my resolution is about. I know that myself very well too. Just not going to say it out loud here. hahaha.

Then there is this again, where people sum up whatever they did for this one whole year. Some of them did it perfectly well, others were just blah...... I did heaps of stuffs this year, and I mostly forgotten what they were. So this year I am not writing this as well. Hahahahaha.

So basically I don't know what I am going to write about. Maybe I dont know.


*******************

Okay, I was going to disclose something very funny. I stay in western suburb of Melbourne, and I usually take public transport to the city CBD. So a few months ago, there is this GOLDEN "KUAN YING", yes, those who know what it is, I cant believe this either. So it is one of the Goddess in Buddhism and Taoism. I don't know which one, don't ask me. So there is this golden Kuan Ying on one of the park next to the railway.

I always find it interesting to see how people reach when the that golden statue. Curiosity fills their mind, and some were awgh-ing away. Some were so curious that they went look at it with a frowned eye for at least 1 minute. Mind you the train is quite fast, and you don't get to see it for a long time.

So I was there thinking. If it were to be a Huge Silver/Golden Cross. No one will pay attention to that. But because this is something foreign, they were looking with awe and curiosity. So maybe next time when you are on Werribee or Williamstown line, look at your left for the statue and the reaction people have when they see this this. It is sitting between the South Kensington and Footscray station!

Oh Merry Xmas everyone!

Crazy and Sick (days)

Yay, finally something that is not a complain entry or unemployment related. Oh wait, I just said those words out in the first paragraph, first sentence..... Oh well. Yeah, I am so freaking busy last Friday, Saturday and today! I love my weekends!!!!!!

Anyway, I was about to say something about last Friday, but since Ammie had already blogged about that, I will just let you read her entry about our night! So go check her blog out! See Ammie I am promoting your blog. You better give me a good Kris Kringle, if we are doing this thing this year. Anyway, I am still sick. Have to go for the show cause I have already brought the ticket, and that's the place I am dying to go. It is called Aunty Mavis in Stocking Stuffer and Tuckey Plucker. That's a cabaret cum musical stand up comedy, nothing about cha cha dance or lifting skirts. By the way Aunty Mavis is played by a guy, I don't think people will want to see his sack.

I must say his work is very entertaining, singing Tiger Balm in replacing Jingle Bell. Giving audience his/her "meat pie" or should I say share the meat pie, and his/her rummy balls that she brought from Down Low. That's a very good pun, and she is basically giving out rum balls. I think sometimes it has a lot of gay terminology and jokes! Go check out what Down Low means.

The night was just marvelous, but there were some hiccups. I won't disclose them here, you can ask Ammie what happened.

*****

Saturday was a lot of shopping, I did most of the walking and someone did most of the shopping. Haha. I am just too broke to shop. Keeping the money till Boxing Day! Bwahaahaha.

*****

Here comes today! Stay back for most of the day, before joining my aunt to her Mahjong Xmas Break-up Party. It is just a normal party with all of the mahjong people having a great dinner and endless amount of wine/champaynes.

But what so fascinating is, I MET HAMISH BLAKE!!!!! For those who has not heard of Hamish Blake, he is one of the comedian very well known in Australia. He is freaking funny but very down to earth kinda guy. If you want to know more, Google him out!

So we parked just outside Lentil As Anything, one of my favorite restaurants in Melbourne, in St Kilda, I saw this guy that parked at the side of the road. When he came out, I was thinking, he looked so much like Hamish Blake. When he walks towards us, I am so sure He IS Hamish Blake. I was pretty nervous, no chill running through my spine though. And this is what our short conversation went:

Me: (fractically) Are you Hamish?
Hamish himself: Yes!
Me: (speechless because I am just stunt and blurred)
Hamish himself: How are you going?
Me: (he actually asked me how m I going?) I am good! And yourself?
Hamish himself: Yeah I am good too.

And we went our own way. He probably want to grab some tea himself, before his car (MINI COOPER) be towed away. I am so speechless and happy because you rarely get to see any celebrities, let alone someone you really admire. He is the person who cheered my gloomy days and not so good days. If you want to know whether he is cute or not, look at the picture below. He is the one on the left.

I have thought of showing you guys some of his work. But being a computer idiot, I have no idea how to put Youtube up into blogspot. Will try to put my hand into it. So for now, you guys will have to go the link instead.....

I'm unemployed, I'm single, I'm little lost. So every once in a while, I need to "woo!"

Emotionless Puppet

Sometimes I think this couldn't be any worst, and then I was bombarded by even more bad news. I reckon this is the lowest of low. I am sick again....... But this time I am able to walk around, just that I will be coughing and sneezing here and there.

For the past few days, everyone was having a bad time. Either they are sick, ended their relationship, lost their job (retrenchment because of the idiotic global financial crisis), still unemployed, broke because they need to buy heaps of pressie for their friends and family, etc etc. Well, what I want to discuss today is not about me, I know I have been very pessimistic, but I will try to lift myself out of this. So one of my friend, the cutest couple (so I thought) just broke up because of long distant relationship. *You know who you are, but don't need to show everyone okay? And stop patting on my head, I just wax-ed my hair*

For most people, the girl or the guy will be crying like there is no tomorrow, and the person who called it break, might end up in a hell a lot of trouble (I have seen a lot of drama relationship, kinda hated that). But this is a totally cool one. AMAZING! No drama, So different, So Cool. Hahaha. I am not sure whether each of them are bottling their emotion up, closing it tight with their imaginary bottle cap. When I was talking to them, they SOUNDED so normal.

Then, it makes me think. Of course I will put my two cents worth because this is my blog after all. I am not just going to announce this for no reason. Whether is this good? You felt sad, but on the surface you looked like a rhinoceros, steady and calm. Is this even any good if you run amok crying like a baby seeking for attentions and begging the person to take you back?

Sometimes, people in the public just want to see everyone smiling and happily making their way to the shop for more endless shopping extravaganza. But this is not the case, so I felt. Maybe not to everyone else on earth with a watery eyes, at least to people you are comfortable with. Personally, I will show my sadness to those who are close to me. Then to me, I am another step closer to them, and hopefully they will be the same too.

Having said that, I am (most of the time) a puppet. I am someone who will not tell everyone what I am feeling. I tends to smile which is the best device to hide my sorrow and trouble catastrophe to people I barely know. Cause to me they don't need to see this, it might just freak them out. I will only out my emotion to people I am close! Is this the apathy route of an adult?

No one want to be an emotionless puppet, and I am not comfortable with hyper-emotive puppets. What do you think?

I am not sure whether should I keep this blog name as "Live Your Life to the Fullest" cause I felt like I am not living it to the fullest now. Maybe I am, maybe I am not, I am confused. We will see! Only time will tell and mend this open-wound

Untitled to Randomness

I was planning to complain about my day last Thursday, it was a terrible day. But I think I should not disclose it here. Cause over here it is full of negativity, and I am not a negative/pessimistic person (I hope I am not sometimes). Besides I have complaint that to fair amount of people (those that I seek for TLC). So I am all good now, and not going to think and throw any tantrum everywhere. I sometimes can act childishly but trying hard not to.

I learned a lot these days, even I am still looking for a job and not going anywhere. I think this is the phase of life where you learn about everything that's around you. Instead of looking for the cure for a certain disease or just getting the daily bread for the family. I felt like a sponge at this moment, standing in a crowded road with people walking aimlessly to places they are suppose to go, while I stood still and absorb their behavior, attitude and something so common yet hard to describe, Life. Life is an endless learning process, and you only notice this when you are standing still.

I am glad I chose this life or this route. Okay, I shall leave this entry here for now. I have heaps to talk about but I totally forgotten about them when I sign into blogspot. Argh. So if I can remember them, then I will talk on them next time. Now, Ancora Imparo, I am still learning (quoted from Monash motto, which is quite true!)

My Breath

Okay this is NOT, let me say it again if you can't read, NOT about my emotive feeling and my ramblings on my life which is not going well. I put it up because it has other meaning to that, I must clarify before everyone start complaining that I rant and ramble too much on unpredictable stuffs.

As you remembered from my previous entry, I finally have back my high speed internet! The new bill month today, and it is going well again! I was very annoyed for the last two weeks when the internet speed was cut to half because we over-indulged our internet quota. Yes, Australian being a very expensive place to live, have internet download usage quota. We were currently under 15Gb per month, and if we downloaded more than 15 Gb, our internet speed will reduced to half. Now that I know, I should probably watch less porn clips from the Youtube or something like that......

I come to realise that internet and its speed are my breath. I get very frustrated and annoyed when Google Map took at least 5 minutes to display the map that I wanted to know, and the address that I wanted to know. Worst is when I wanted to play with Street View, to view the particular street so that I know where to stop when I am directly on the street itself. It annoyed the hell out of me when I wanted to run anything everyday. Facebook is as slow as a snail, and I am not going to say anything about blogs.

Then there is this another thing. I just heard a song that actually took my breath away. It is called Breathless (not a pun) by Shayne Ward. Apparently I am so outdated that that song was out last year and I only noticed it now (almost one year ago)........ Is it me or that the Australian don't really listen to UK pop songs? So since I got back my high speed connection, I went and downloaded it! Has been playing nonstop on my laptop now. Bwhahahahaha.

I better go back to my resume writing and company researching.
