mwah!
I'm getting bored at home. Everyday sitting around doing nothing. I want to start working. At least by then, my time will be use up wisely, and I get PAID! Or maybe for now, I shall use my time to go shopping. Haha.
I just finish reading a book, "Shopaholic and baby" by SophieKinsella.
Shopaholic goddess Becky Bloomwood Brandon is dying to know the gender of her unborn "bump," conceived on her honeymoon. The suspense doesn't stop her from shopping 'til she drops for everything from designer prams to a Circus Tent Changing Station and 400-thread-count linen sheets for the baby. Her biggest purchase by far is a new dream house in a posh London suburb, complete with a customized shoe cupboard for herself, his and hers nurseries and a built-in electric sushi maker. Becky negotiates with her Archie Swann cowboy boots in calfskin with the leather drawstring to seal the deal. The defining factor: the boots were featured in Vogue under "Most Coveted." What man wouldn't make that kind of deal? Becky's rationality for outrageous purchases is laugh-out-loud funny and endears you to indulge a first-time mother.
Sophie Kinsella, the New York Times bestselling author of the Shopaholic series, has written a designer pregnancy manual for a new generation of moms-to-be. Those who have had children will be jealous of Becky's designer wardrobe, as well as hospitals with double beds and wine lists. Only our pampered shopaholic would think to hire an aromatherapist, a reflexologist and a homeopath for the birth of her baby. Best of all, Becky would "make it OK for pregnant women to have cocktails. In fact, I'd make it healthy to have cocktails. And your arms wouldn't swell up. And there wouldn't be any morning sickness. And labor wouldn't exist..." This is why fantasy is so appealing....
Becky's pregnancy sails along smoothly due to her new mantra: "shopping cures morning sickness." Her cravings appropriately include "a pineapple and pink cardigan." Best friend Suze is always there to shop with her and offer these encouraging words: "...you'll be the best dressed one (mom) in the playground." Becky's mother tells it like it is: "They have better drugs these days. My advice is take everything they've got." Suze and Becky realize together that you can have the same lust in your eyes for a new pushchair as for a new dress. Pregnancy is really just another excuse to shop for a new wardrobe and baby clothes and nursery items.
Becky's fantasy pregnancy continues as she is the featured mommy-to-be in a Vogue photo shoot --- in an Oscar de la Renta maternity dress. Every woman should experience the luxury of having a makeup artist and a hairdresser transform you into a goddess during the eighth month of pregnancy. There's nothing like a team of experts to enhance that so-called "glow" that accompanies it.
The most unnerving event of Becky's pregnancy is the fact that her celebrity must-have obstetrician, Venetia Carter, turns out to be the ex-girlfriend of her handsome, "squillionaire" rich PR husband. Suddenly, celebrity tea parties and water birth with lotus flowers pale as Becky realizes that Venetia is making a play for him. Like most men, Luke doesn't see through the lies that the jealous Venetia has told to Becky until it is nearly too late. Venetia is no match for Becky's hormones and love for her husband.
"Some things are best left a blur. Births and Visa bills." No truer statement has ever been written. Becky makes pregnancy a shopping experience like no other. For a woman who doesn't know any nursery rhymes or how to change a nappy, she sure figures out quickly that the best use for a stroller is carrying mountains of purchases instead of a baby.
You will laugh and cry with Becky and Luke as they prepare for the new arrival. Their visit to Pram City is a warm repartee between a loving couple expecting their first child. Ugly surgical stockings to prevent varicose veins are not fashionable and reduce Becky to tears. Becky is a visionary when it comes to finances. Her selections are unique and her desire for a designer future for her unborn baby are the bulk of her portfolio. Baby number one is a willing shopaholic devotee. Prams have one key benefit --- they allow shopaholics to maintain their habit after the baby arrives. Shopaholics have more fun!
I finish this book in a day and a half. This shows that I'm really bored at home!
mwah!!
Just came back from Sunway Lagoon. I'm kind of exhausted now. It was fun but I'm tired now. Will blog about it some other time.

I'm blogging again today! Bravo!! Two days in a row. What an achievement. Are you guys proud of me? =)
My blog now look so much better!! Gosh. It look like crap before this. Now, it look so. Clean. Refresh. In short, it looks N.I.C.E..
Well, exams over, and holiday seasons are starting. I'm so excited that Christmas is just around the corner. But, not so for my purse. *sob* Anyway, I'm having a lil problem. The buying presents part.
-What to buy?
-How much is my budget and my sis?
-To share or not to share with my sis?
See!! Simple thing made difficult by me. Well, girls are always like that right?! -At least for me. Haha. So I think I need a Christmas list. Or at least some suggestion.
Oh, today I died on my bed. AGAIN. Haha. Just like every other month. But this month, it stole my beauty sleep. And yup, no more two more days. Haha. So no worries. =P Heh, I kinda freak out whenever my period comes late, cos you know, we ladies get paranoid bout it. Even if we know we didn't do anything wrong. So guys, please understand US girls. OK!
Yesterday I went out with Brian for dinner. We had Korean food at Sunway Pyramid, and the service there was horrible. This will be my first and last time having a meal there. The restaurant is located beneath the cinema, next to the superman shop there. Our dinner arrive bout half an hour later. We ordered two set meals, but it only came one! And we have to wait for another ten minute. We practically sit there bout 7.45pm and we left bout 9pm. Gosh. Just for one meal. It's ridicules.
But after that, we left for shopping till the mall close. And we when to Calvin's house to pick him up for "yum cha" session. We had quite a nice catch up together time. All the gossips and updates from him. Till bout 11.45pm we left and headed home.
As for today, I woke up bout 2.45pm. I know I'm such a pig. But it's the "period cramps" that killed me. Woke up, read a bit of tarot. -I'm learning tarot now. And when downstairs for my late lunch. I had 'bak kua' with bread. Yummy~ Then ding dong ding dong till bout 5, Mommy called, and said "We're coming back now, faster get ready." Gosh, in 10mins, I have to get ready. Super Women. And here I am, at my aunt's place blogging.
