new addiction!! gosh, someone stop me~

i have totally ignored that i have not one, but TWO assignments due on the 16th May, one week to go!! one is the compulsory tax law assignment n the other, the sport law assignment.. i must admit dat i don't quite know wat they're all talkin about.. n i'm in deep shit.. but the worst thing is.. well, everythin seemed bad now... is dat i don't feel TOO anxious to do the assignments! guess wat i have been doin for the past few nights? i had steamboat at home for 2 nights, n mahjong for 3 nights.. ah!!! save me, somebody! play never mind, lose liao damn jialat..

okay.. my new addiction.. i am VERY ADDICTED to EBAY!!! HHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPP!!
it's only been about 2 days!! i have bought a paul frank watch (a bargain! considerin it conly costed me AUD$19.24 for the watch plus postage n handling) n a pair of cowboy boots from the US!!! argh!!! oh, the boots were a bargain too.. they costs only US$10.45!!! a normal pair of boots would cost about AUD$100 per pair!! n now it's like.. less than AUD30!! it's read Vintage Leather Boho Cowboy Stacked Eagle Boots.. they're used tho, but it's alright, i have a lot of other used items (as well as new ones) dat i'm currently watchin on.. amongst the used stuff dat i'm watchin are.. a khaki green suede Manolo Blahnik pointed toe heels, some sass n bide jeans, n some boho lookin belts.. n i don't even know if i'll pull the boho look! new things i'm lookin at include LV wallets for jacke, a cartier ring, tiffany n co stuffs (they're so cheap here i dunno if they're even real!) then there's ANOTHER few pair of boots n shoes.. ijust decided to let go of a pair of Stuart Weitzman's heels, they did look comfy, but didn't think it was wise to pay AUD60 over for dat pair.. in about 6 mins time i will know if i'm the successful bidder for a pair of Justin Ladies Western Cowboy Boots which are US$34.99.. i kept refreshin the page n waitin anxiously for the auction to end.. sigh.. n guess wat, i haven't slept the whole night.. well, i did sleep for a while late evenin last night.. about 8 to 9:30pm? n then went down for the steamboat dinner n then play mahjong til about... 3am.. then i have been sittin up here on my uncomfy chair, pressin the refresh button.. n constantly huntin for new stuffs to bid on.. i don't bid just anytime, i only bid at the end of the auction, which gives me more control over the price.. as long as it doesn't rise til an amount dat i don't think is affordable.. oh, brb, gotta see if my auction has ended.. another 2 mins!!! oh well, i might as well finish this.. talkin about being a shopaholic.. gosh, i never thought i would let loose huntin here on ebay.com.au.. anyway, i just picked up a call about 10 mins ago from the Commonwealth Bank.. lookin for Jacke, the guy on the other line didn't sound very nice, but heck.. i didn't even know they work so early in the mornin.. it wasn't even 8am yet! *refreshing my page again* 24 secs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fanatic.. i will call myself dat.. shit, 3 secs..

haha, i won the bidding of the item.. sent an email to the seller to ask for the total price of the shippin.. from US.. how long would i need to wait huh.. well.. still thinkin whether to bid for the next item.. a grey low v-neck short dress which can be worn back to front.. it only costs AUD8.50.. ; let me tell u guyz wat else i'm thinkin of buyin yeah?
my ebay wishlist:
  1. a pair of shoes which i can wear to work (i just thought of the black suede Jimmy Choo pom-pom calf boots i put on watch list!);
  2. a pair of skin-tight jeans to wear with my new cowboy boots (still thinkin whether to buy online or try on some at the stores 1st, but of course the ones online will cost less than half);
  3. a bracelet from Tiffany & Co, hopefully the mesh one or the heart-link one..;
  4. a Baby-G watch that i've always wanted (did i tell u i can get them for less than AUD100 per piece?);
  5. a Christian Dior pink belt (which i spotted in KL n absolutely loved, might be fake tho)
  6. a plaited black or dark brown belt dat looks Boho..
  7. dat black Marc Jacobs layered dress which is gorgeous!! (i hope the price doesn't go up!)
  8. an LV tote if i'm lucky (have u seen the 2005 summer Cherry Speedy collection???if u haven't, CHECK THEM OUT!)

oh.. the list is gettin longer.. i shall not put anymore in, wat am i expecting? to buy at least one item a day for the rest of the addiction?? i can't! i simply can't afford it.. Jacke has also bought a new gear knob for his car.. n weeks ago was this M badge n front nose grills for his car..

now i fear for my own health, for i can't sleep well thinkin i might miss out on somethin gorgeous on ebay or missed an auction for somethin dat i wanted badly.. hahaha, it's so laughable.. i'll post some pictures up soon, probably after the 16th tho.. will try to do both, instead of just finishin the compulsory one.. i'll probably learn to be a desperate student n ask one of my acquaintances about the assignment.. hopefully she'll shed some light.. okay, my back hurts, i'm contented.. i love the pair of boots.. jacke loved them too.. hehee, it should be the right size... ahhahahah i'm so funny.. muakz yall, mz gonna get some boho clothes to look diff for a change.. keke hopefully i'm look fine.. n not overdressed.. muakz muakz..

Last day as 'straight-haired' Mz

yes, tmr will be the day dat i re-create myself.. my looks, rather.. i've booked an appoinment for 2pm Eastern Standard Time Australia (+1000 hr) with Hair La Ross in Box Hill. ironically my hairstylist will be Roy, a name my brother calls himself too. how weird.. the name i mean.. i don't like it.. could it be becoz my sis has a fren called Roy who seemed to me as an arrogant, immature and childish person? bah, watever.. anywayz, i got a quote for a haircut n a perm (watever perm, they say) for AUD120. uhm... not too cheap, but it'll do.. i've even asked it i needed to touch-up my regrowth n the fella said it's not as long n it won't be necessary. so i've saved another.. few 10s..

it has been a roller-coaster week for me.. i was so depressed about my r/ship being 'stale' n 'sparkless'.. n my mum being so naggy about me gettin a job.. to fill my time n watever.. then i got the news about Poh Gin's mother passing away.. gosh.. i cried the whole hour trying to take it in.. u see, the story was dat PG asked me for the photo of Sai Baba, the Indian spiritual leader whom my family is (are?) disciples to. i kinda 'delayed' the whole process of givin her the photo.. altho i couldn't understand y she didn't just get it from the neighbour just opposite her house.. we were all bz n couldn't do it any sooner.. n i felt very bad about not bringin the photo to her by myself.. but then again, i might just add the whole 'i-met-her-sick-mum' incident to my own "emotional n compassionate" mind n suffer (n cry!!) more when i think about PG's mum later on. i do get very emotional during times when i think about death of ppl who are close to me.. i remember the time when Alan T's brother Alex who is also my beloved ex-teacher passed away n i cried on the spot when Alan told me about it in school. i literally just broke down n cried..!! Alan had to comfort me in the end, crazy huh? well, he was a really good person, n i remembered dat he sings well.. gosh, i'll miss him.

anywayz, i just wanna wish all those who aren't here with us anymore, a good journey to where ever they are heading. be it heaven, to be one of the gods, angels n spirits.. or to be reborn as new lives n start things anew.. i will always hold on to the memories we had together.. (maybe dat's y i've never gotten over so many deaths of my loved ones) n remember the advices given to me. n may all in the living world cherish their lives, be happy, embrace the future n wat it brings n live life to the fullest..
