You can tell us anything. We don’t judge. We’re the non-judging breakfast club. We’re your best friends. Anything you do is something we did too.
- Blair Warldorf, Gossip Girl Season 1 Episode 18
Needless to say, it is obvious that I’d sort of been binge-watching Gossip Girl, desperately trying to catch up and terrified that [...]

One Kind of Shoes
Posted in Complete Frivolity, For the Love of Shoes, My Shrink Recommends Retail Therapy on June 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
After buying my $150 Nine West shoes the other day, I tried desperately to justify the purchase to myself. Reasons why buying them is a good idea includes:
1) I think I love them.
2) I can just buy fewer pairs of cheap shoes.
3) I won’t buy shoes for 3 months (no, I lie – 2 months).
4) [...]
Out of Office

Snippet from one of my colleagues’ previous out-of-office message:
If this is an emergency, you are better off contacting the police than writing me this email.
Hoho.
As we will be out of office for the next two weeks, we’d been brainstorming about our out-of-office messages over tea break for the past days, trying to out-do each other [...]

(On the Time We’d Sold)
Me: I’d sold my time to the organization. Therefore, it is no longer mine, but at the disposal of the organization.
PR: You make it sound like you’re in a secret society or a cult.
Me: Yah. When I first joined, I has to drip blood into a basin.
PR: Then everyone has to [...]
Flat Days

I probably won’t say this in person, but wearing flats feels awesome. No matter that I waddle more in flats, it just feels so good!
Especially after days of having achy arches on 3 and a half inches off the ground.
My refusal to wear flats on a daily basis despite the knowledge that 1) they are [...]
Pain & Epiphanies
Posted in A taste for Melancholy, Complete Frivolity on June 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I’m prone to having epiphanies under certain circumstances: 1) when suitably high on alcohol and 2) when in pain.
Somehow, these states of being are especially conducive for the generation of epiphanies. Despite their kitsch-ness, I like them. They allow me to pretend that the world is not completely unfathomable by condensing impossibly complex matters into [...]

A tiny while back, I went with the Boyfriend and one of his friends to watch the opening performance of the Singapore Arts Festival. A rather whimsical one, even if we did not have the best of views
After which, we trooped over to the Lao Pa Sat for satays and some (I wonder [...]
Are you a Whore too? :)
Posted in Arbeit Macht Frei, Quotes, Recycled Thoughts on June 2, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I came across this quote a few days ago – its the story of the salaried man/woman!
What do people mean when they speak disparagingly of “a whore”? Someone who sells her or his body? I have news for you: Unless you’re a ghost who still draws a paycheck, you use your body to make a [...]
Dot. Dot. Dot.
This is where I write when I'm not obsessing about style over at Fashion Nation.
I can't think of anything witty to write here.
Its just your regular Shrine of Narcissism, you know? :)
