R.I.P, my love

one of my cammie lenses has gone kaput. 

gone. destroyed. wracked. 

sad. 

it brought me so much good memories...

hiaz. 

leave is evil

one thing good about taking leave is that i get to wake up wayyyyy later than usual.

no work... no RP... no laundry...

shiok.

but the thing bad about having leave, is all these free time i have on my hands and how my mind can actually start to wander about... thinking of stuff that do not warrant immediate attention.

take 2009 pressies, for example.

more ELC stuff for the 3 boys? (quite tough, coz their parents and i have practically ransacked the whole place by now.)

can i actually get anything for 3m that will top his xmas pressie? (whoa... this one very tough. very very tough.)

& for the G4 members...

thomas sabo? 

hermes (ok, maybe not hermes. economic crisis.)

tiffany's?

loewe? (they do have nice small little stuff around...)

of course, these are just plans. 

if this economic crisis is to continue, they might end up just getting stuff from Daiso. 

instead of staying at home resting my soul (and wallet), i'm now actually plotting to spend more money!

leave is evil, i tell you... evil!

hahahaha

Wolverine teaser... looks good so far.

hmm... not bad.

not bad at all. 

he did not learn that from me hor!

i dun care what people say, my godson did not learn that "di-gong" face from me, ok? 

maybe he got it from his mom, i dunno.

but definitely not from me. hahaha

photo copyright: this nice photo is taken by godson's mother. 

Errr, fish!... err, food!... err, fish!

my godson... what can i say? hahaha

Xmas pressie hint

ok, 5 more days before D-day. guess it's time for me to up the ante in revealing more hints on the pressies that i'm giving. 

so... to the G4 members, there it is. 

in this photo, are hints to the presents that i got for you all. this image is made up of strips, taken off some of the brands... logos... & gift wraps i got.

a couple of colours are thrown in to mess things up a bit, just to up the imagination (coz i know how good you all are at identifying logos). but generally, yeah, most of the the brands are there. 

so... have fun.  

hahaha

Did i say this book is good?

it's damn solid.

of course, one has to know the basics of econs and the general stuff (such as Bretton Woods system) to get it going, but really, it's a good read.

quote form preface:

"much has been said about panics and manias... but one thing is certain, that at particular times a great deal of stupid people have a great deal of stupid money... At intervals,... the money of these people - the blind capital, as we call it, of the country - is particularly large and craving; it seeks for someone to devour it, and there is a "plethora"; it finds someone, and there is "speculation"; it is devoured, and there is "panic"".

i like.

13 more days to D-Day.

2 more weeks to D-day.

that's the day when the gang will have the annual Xmas dinner-cum-pressie-exchange session.

and, as usual, i am at a lost when it comes to choosing pressies. 

specifically, there are two individuals that i am having problem with. not problem of getting the present... but more like problem of ensuring that the M.U. is up to the standard. 

13 more days of second guesses.

13 more days of what-ifs. 

Arghhhh!

and one of them is even gonna ask for daily hints of what i'm getting for her!

Double Arghhhh!

well, at least i've settled the gift for my godson. guess i'm not THAT bad.

ps: i know, i know... i sound pretty shallow in this entry. but life's full of serious shit lately. i could use some shallowness to lighten my life a bit. 

ignore my earlier rambling...

please ignore my earlier rambling post... me is talking nonsense.

i hate it when i'm in this mood. grrr....

once in a while... i need to rethink my life... and ramble about it.

what's going on around here anyway?

work... work... and more work. i want to feel zen about life, but all this shit is just messing up my focus. i have not had any peace of mind for like... years. 

i can still recall what it was like, to look at the one i love when she was asleep and yet felt absolutely blissed-out.

not anymore.

f**k.

oh well... 

anyway, this dude in the clip looked happy. at least i think he was happy, when i looked at the clip. no story line... no words. just music and some silly dance moves.

and yet... he looked happy. 

i suppose sometimes it's the little things in life that matter.

or maybe someone.

i dunno.

i'm still waiting.

i'll still be waiting. 

ps: i almost went to Mumbai last week! 

and almost stayed in Taj Palace! 

round the exact time when the terrorists attacked!

 

sheesh.
