I had to drop Steev off at 1 Utama today to meet his friends for a movie. Since we were there early and we weren’t sure if we could get any tickets, seeing that it’s the school holidays and all, I thought I’d pop up to GSC with him.
I just wanted to step out of [...]
show me the gold
Posted on May 25, 2008 - Filed Under finance & money talk shop | 1 Comment
When I pass by the goldsmith shops at the mall, it never fails to surprise me when I see more men than women in there sometimes. I always thought women love to adorn themselves with gold accessories but it looks like the men are eager not to be left behind.
All this time, I thought men [...]

Father’s Day is in just two weeks, did you realize that? Somehow I always remember Mother’s Day but forget Father’s Day because it comes around so quickly that I hardly notice it.
But hey, if your father lives a distance away and you can’t be there with him this Father’s Day, how about sending him a [...]
the mall instead of the gym

I went to the gym this morning after a two-week absence. Been so busy I hardly had time to think of the gym, but I really miss it when I don’t go. So I was off like an arrow first thing this morning.
The gym is usually most crowded on weekends because that’s when the [...]
a timeless timepiece

I’m crazy about watches, did you know that? I used to have an entire collection of fancy watches, none of them too expensive though. They were more like bracelet watches that added a touch of sophistication I so craved.
I couldn’t afford the super-expensive dress watches at the time. It’s more like an opportunity cost kind [...]
so what good is a shopping list?

The midyear holidays are here and so are the sales. Yay! My shopping list is growing longer, hehe. By the way, do you believe in shopping lists, or are you someone who shops off the top of your head?
I never used to make shopping lists when I was single. It was too much of a [...]
pearls of the deepest blue

You know what I would’ve loved to receive on Mother’s Day? Well, if you’d asked me then, I probably wouldn’t have thought of it but now that I’ve seen how luscious these Tahitian pearls are, I’m positively salivating.
I admit I’ve never seen pearls this color before. I thought all pearls were, well, pearly white and [...]
are you within arm’s length of a shopping mall?

I think the most fortunate working people are the folks who work in an office building that’s adjacent or within a shopping mall. I used to be one of them and it was just so sweet knowing the mall is just an elevator ride away.
I did my groceries during lunch hour. I packed dinners home [...]
nature’s anti-wrinklers?

I happened to flip on a TV channel this morning where some lady was demonstrating how you could use natural ingredients like fruits and vegetables to keep your skin looking young and healthy.
She recommends blending a bunch of fruits and plastering it on your face, and you’ve got nature’s anti wrinkle cream right there.
Of course [...]
