The Realisation

I just realised... I AM HIGH MAINTENANCE!!!! ( I was in denial all this time thinking I was a simple woman!)

Yes I just sat down this morning and I was thinking....damn...I spend a lot on maintaining my appearance ( and still look like SHIT!) by making sure I have my hair coloured (every 2-3 months), hair cut ( every month) maintaning my  nails ( every 2-3 weeks), facials ( every 2 weeks), body massages ( every other month or so) eye and neck treatments, IPL treatments ( every other month). BUT the one thing I don't do is EXERCISE!!!! (that answers the question on why I still look like shit).

I aso spend damn a lot on shoes, bags ( no question about that), bajus ( which I still have new ones hanging from last year!!!)  I aso take health supplements which cost me lotsa moolah (in my defense, they helped me a lot, so I do not need to cut back on that!!!)

Don't get me started on my skincare, body care and and make up!!! wah some more going out for drinks and dinners!! MY GOD...I seriously have to cut down to save more! BUT HOW?

Hubs usual reply to me " STOP BUYING!!!" followed by " Its your money, so do as you like, but don't ask me to support your habits!"

O_O

WTF rite... I am doing this for HIM!!! so I can always look HOT and he will always think and know his wife is HOT!

Question.

Does that  mean I have low self esteem and need to prove to others?

HELL NO!

I am a Libran.... I like pretty things and looking pretty...after all...

I AM A WOMAN!

The One Where Hubby Is On A Diet

So...I am detoxing again! I seriously need to look good this weekend coz we are attending a wedding... and you know la... girls/ladies in Malaysia all damn skinny...hair damn nice...skin damn smooth! What do I have? Boobs..I love my boobs.... that's about it!

Ok so... 3rd day int my detox-ing mode and out of no where hubby decided that he too have put on weight (which he has and finally has come out from denial )and has requested me to cook smaller portions for his dinner or make something light and easily digested ( I think with age, digestion is a serious problem...) So ok loh, last nite I steam 1 corn on cob and a bowl of mushroom soup with vegemite on crackers - trust me sounds horrid but its a few of his fav food!

Then this afternoon after lunch ( he had economy rice) he felt guilty, so he told me to buy milk and cereal ( the healthy kind) and he is gonna have that for lunch! Said to me SURE lose weight one! OK LOH! 

I see how long he can last.... Anyone wanna put a bet one that?

The Movember Movement

November is here and it's gonna be as busy as October.

It started with  a short trip to Bangkok for a Thai Buddist head monk's birthday and to settle the designs for the new condo which ended up as a makan trip and me contributing to the Thai economy!

Will be heading back to Bangkok again end of the month for a bit of R & R after our trip to north Thailand.

During our trip this time, I manage to meet the monk which I met 2 years ago when he told me then that I have problems with my womb which lead me to go for a checkup and we found fibroids in my womb. This time around he told me that I should start seeking western medicine to go with my traditional medication in order to conceive. ooooo...how in the world did he know I have been taking traditional medicine?? He also told me I have until next year to produce, and if I don't then it's a lost hope! OK some people may think this is utter BS (i.e. my hubby) but to me I take it seriously as I believe in this monk, I believe he has a special vision/power and he can "see" things.

Soooo... I did go for a scan and has been consulting a fertility specialist and will start with treatment beginning of next year. Apparently I like this fertility doc, he takes thing slowly and does not push us... he wants to monitor my eggs! (FYI: hubs boys are wayyyyyy healthy!!!!)

I seriously hope that things work out and we don't have to take drastic measures!

*fingers cross*

On other note... one of my BFF just turn 30...she is going thru a phase of denial... which she would snap out of it soon...so Debs.... if you are reading this.. embrace the 30s!!! It's a BLAST!

Last night a friend of 20 years did this up for us  (* thanks weels!*) and the tags all of us, his 6 gorgeous ladies! and this is what makes me go all teary and nostalgic...

We have been friends for more than 20 years all 7 of us!!! and we have all been thru to hell and back....MANY TIMES!! and we are all still together!

The One With The Birthday Gifts

Just got back from Bangkok and I was kinda proud with myself when I did not buy anything "major" until I reach the airport!

After the passport clearence and the custom scanning I knew Chanel was in front...so I told myself ok I will just go in and have a look at the Chanel Coco Cocoon collection. I was very dissapointed with it.... hubs said it look like a bag made out of diaper and for almost RM4k for a nylon bag/pillow he rather shoot himself! (the lambskin was about RM8k ) I have to agree with him on that!

So as I thank the girls for showing my the collection my eyes aimed in on a really cute black classic 2.55 long clutch and the red classic flap in pleated calfskin from the fall/winter 09/10 collection . Mom loved the clutch and I loved the red bag...so wihtout thinking too much, I took out my credit card and ask the girls to wrap up the two cute bags and called my dad to thank him for the gifts to me and mom on his birthday! My dad did not say anything and just ask me nice or not... of coz I said nice la!!! ( such a fashionista) Hubs on the otherhand  was  NOT impressed AT ALL!!!

 

Halloween 2009

Halloween was a BLAST!!!

I manage to embrace my inner Harujuku Ah Lian-ness when I went as a Harujuku ghost.... (some people think I was a 80s ghost.... but  I think I rock!! Hub went as I have no idea...but his charater was good as dead!
