生日快乐Carrie

I designed a birthday postcard for a friend in Taiwan. I hope the bits didn't fall off by the time it gets to her! She was a great help during my trip there and is a joy to have as a friend :) And I am so jealous of her natural curly hair that's as Q as the maggie mee... I think I will give it a try one day!

Made with love, packed with belated birthday wishes.

That once in a blue moon shopping mood

The time has come.

Not too sure if it's an accumulation of the stress and unhappiness I've had earlier the week at work, now I need some retail therapy. The Great Singapore Sale ends this weekend, and so far I have not really gone on a shopping spree except for things that I needed.

Like when I have to throw a pair of shoes, usually I get a similar substitute because it's something I'm so used to wearing it so often. So I bought a pair of "ballet" alike shoes, which is silver and quite comfortable (I hope it doesn't hurt). And most importantly, it's FLAT!!! I actually spotted one in ALDO, but sadly the last pair was 4 sizes bigger! ARghh....

Also I bought myself a Happy Meal today, not to make myself happier but my colleagues have started this Happy Meal toy collection thing going in the office. I'm tempted, it's the set of the Ronald Mc Donald guys with their "shaky" heads. But the Happy Meal seems healthier than the normal set meals, because we can have salad, corns, fruits and yoghurt instead and no compulsory choice of soft drink!! 3 more to come :))) I still remember I had Happy Meal when I was back in London or Germany, I'm quite a big kid I suppose.

A pokka dots blue spagetti and a "dotty" laced white skirt. My rewards for the day. I'm quite pleased with the purchase because it only costs me $50 for everything plus my Happy Meal. Much cheaper than shopping in europe I guess...

Talking about this... I've made myself a bag from a fancy tee that I bought in Thailand which couldn't fit me. I like arts & craft. Here's a picture of my creation... not sure what I should name it. Maybe I can make such bags and sell? Hand-made!!
