Wishing all my readers near and far a very happy and prosperous new year! May the year of the dragon bring you good health, great wealth, peace and happiness.

another year has flown by...

I went back home for Christmas to see my folks hence the lack of posts recently. While we do not celebrate Christmas per se, we certainly got caught up with the revelries and frenzy that the festivities caused. Traffic was maddeningly hectic, the sun was scorching hot but it trully felt like Christmas to me because I was surrounded by delectable food and people I love.

I saw this bracelet (10 grams of 916 gold) which was approximately 2 grand in a goldsmith shop at Campbell Street and I came out of the shop severely devastated because yet again, my bank account has failed me.

Some other snapshots...

And finally, Happy New Year to one and all! It's my favorite holiday because it's a universal celebration - everybody gets together to usher in the new year!

christmas is coming! jumps around, jumps around!

Some christmas decoration at my office for the Secret Santa event. I got a lousy bracelet charm that probably cost less than RM10 (the budget was RM10 - RM15). Last year, I received a hair clip. I actually confronted the giver about this (yes, yes, I reek of immaturity). I swear, she and her friends must have bitched about me. What are the odds that her friend turned out to be my Secret Santa this year? That whole team must hate my guts. Whatevs.

I gave out a Hello Kitty shower gel that cost me RM15 (exclusive of wrapping which was another RM3).

Karma isn't really on my side this time. Never mind, there's always next year.

Awesome meringue and tarts (not forgetting the gingerbread man) from Thyme, Damansara Uptown. I'm in love with their cream cheese buns (not shown) which I consume on an almost daily basis. No wonder my cellulite refuse to leave my ass.

The places only life can take you to are often dark and dreary. However, the paradox lies in the fact that it is also undeniably magical and compelling, if you look hard and close enough.

this week in photos

 Didn't take much photos the past week due to a horrific exam, commencement of work and other inconsequential matters which were not worthy of being captured. Things to do this coming week: fight cellulite (Please leave my ass, you are unattractive), go see a world renowned choir in the philharmonic hall, wear a leopard print pussy bow top, eat more fruits and attempt to figure out what doing the right thing means.
