Waste of Money to Waist Loss

Okay after a tearful blog post, I shall try to be back in business. *wipes tears and snot off*


My beloved french cop drama (I know, you got to get used to me talking about this..lest I break into speaking french next) is left hanging with one of my fav characters in a slight limbo when one of his clients took an interest in him. The thing is, he just got married and I suppose this will throw him a boomerang in the face or something? heh..but I want my hero to be able to get over the distraction because the thing is, he is married to someone who is more senior than him and has problems being committed at first until the big realization later. Then this wingbat of a distraction apparently is just as young as him, hot and comes from the same beach side town as his.


I just love how positive thinking some of the fans are like oh, Kevin is going to get distracted but along the way will go back to his one true love. Because of such a cliffhanger, honestly I would rather they discontinue the series. I like the way thing are and being the selfish me, I want things to end on a happy note. :D


On a less happy note *sigh*, I have made multiple errors on spending when I am trying to scrimp and save money so that I won't be so much in misery while payday is still far far away still. Ok it's just next week but you get the point. I said I swear off spending for at least this month coz of stuffs to pay but the very next day, I bought a handbag from erm..M*phosis coz they were having sales and I've always wanted to buy one of their black coloured bags. The thing is, most of the bags were 50% off and knowing that I will get my bonus next month and an additional $200 on the 1st of July (which will probably be used to pay myself back :S), it's simply the case of.........'I'll be an idiot if I don't get it'. 


Then today, I was cheated off my money. Sigh. They put the sign BIG BIG that it was 1.95 and dunno how or why, I ended up paying $2.95 for one of the items. Cheated me of my $1. I don't want to question lah coz it was already registered as such. Shortly after, I had this bubble tea craving when someone walked past me with a cup of bubble tea. I like the drink but sometimes, it sucks depending on where I bought it from and most times, it tastes like diluted chocolate milk. On the sign board, it clearly said that it is $1.30 but how much I paid for it? $1.50!! For something so freakin' diluted! *eurgh* and I wasted like what..almost $5 of which the amount could actually go into buying groceries few minutes later as I was on my way there to get about 2 to 3 items. I ended up breaking up my $10 note. What a freakin' waste.


Anyway, lesson learnt hard. That $2.95 better be worth it coz it's actually a sample tube of a slimming gel from Nivea. I bought 3 tubes of a similar product before by Bio-Essence and I said 3 tubes coz they were actually very small but nevertheless, I used it till the very last squeeze. I wanted a smaller waistline and I thought, heck, since it was only $1.95, just buy it for the sake of 'experiment'. Honestly, it did work. I don't know how many inches I've lost but my skirt doesn't feel so tight. Maybe it's just me lah trying to trick myself into thinking the product actually works but then who cares. 


This Nivea tube is slightly larger and will probably last me longer and this time, my experiment is going to be more complete. I now have a measuring tape and if it works, the tape will let me know. I mean it won't speak to me coz that will be more freaking scary than a weighing  machine that shows BIG BIG how much you weigh. Actually, both are scary actually..haha.


Now my task is to shave off 2 inches and it will be a nice figure, so to speak. Of course there is always the case of additional support such as having a good diet and exercising to promote the inch loss which most slimming centres also advocate when they have clients coming in for their latest technologies in weight loss. Bet you didn't know that fact, eh? Actually, what they advocate can be far worse and ridiculous as well like totally giving up on carbohydrates and all because they want to make sure you really lose the freakin' weight and inches due to their expensive machinery. But it seems that their way of extreme dieting is the one making you lose weight but not their high tech weight loss machinery.


Once I finish using the cream, I shall let you know, eh? :D I'll be your guinea pig. And also to make sure I didn't pay the extra $1 for nothing..pfft. Losing that 2 inches is not a big deal. Im not doing it for the sake of vanity so let's just have fun with this, aight?

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
