What is Elmo from Sesame Street meant to be? He has no resemblance to any animal I know
If you're boyfriend was unemployed, and you had a decent paying job, would you support him entirely? And for how long?
If you're boyfriend treated you like complete shit, ignored your calls and you in general, how long would you stay?
What does the relationship status "its complicated" on Facebook really mean?
If you were sleeping with someone, and doing general 'couple' activities, how long would you wait til they commited?
How many people do you sleep with before its too many?
Why have fat people never tried to fail proof diet called, "eat less and exercise"?
Why is the world in denial about the fossil fuel crisis?
What happens when it runs out? Steam trains? And what happens when coal runs out? Horse carriage?
Poor and in love, or rich and no love?
Who can you not help but to judge, for no apparent reason?
Would you date someone who wore ugly shoes?
None of these questions relate to me. They're just general observations.
I have something to say. I want to state my opinion, with evidence for my point. I can prove you oh-so-wrong.
But I wont.
I'm just going to take the assumption that you are extremely naive in your beliefs and world views. That you don't mean to be a hypocritical dumbass. I will give you the benefit of the doubt, because I'm going to spear you the humiliation. I'm nice like that.
Realise this grass hopper. I never bullshit. Everything I say comes from somewhere, its call research and being 'in the know'. You dont want to pick this kind of fight with me. No one ever wins. Especially you.
I'm watcing the Sex and the City special on Oprah.

Mr Big: Welcome home baby
Carrie: *swoon*
O.M.G!!!!!!! You know what? Fuck diamonds. I want PROPERTY! If you loved me, you would buy me a 3br, 2bath, 2car apartment in the inner west. If you loved me abit more than that, it would be a 4br, 2.5bath, 2LUG, large yard on a tree lined avenue in Straithfield. If you really really loved me, it would be a 5br, 3 bath, 3LUG, pool, games room, outdoor entertaining area, private garden, mansion in Potts Point/Vaulcuse/Manly/Rosebay/Watsons Bay and surrounding areas. I'm demanding, and I have very hig expectations. I know :)
Jewellery and cars are for girls. A rare, quality piece of real estate the what the 21st century woman wants.
Mascara Review Maxfactor 2000 Calories (because you trust my opinion):
Today I spent every spare minute at work trolling the Vogue Australia forums, trying to decide which is the best mascara. I do love the Clinique one I recieved in my 'gift pack' but it doesnt hold a curl, which is miserable for an Asian with poker straight lashes that point down. So I found out, waterproof mascaras hold a curl better than normal mascaras due to their high wax content, but can damage lashes during prolonged use. One that was highly recommended and classed as a 'cheapie' was Max Factor 2000 Calories. So after work, I beelined for Priceline! And wow, for a mascara that costs $20 a tube, it is AMAZING. Ive had it on for a few hours now and they're still sky high.
But unfortunately, you can still feel the 'cheapie'ness of the ingredients, and if I dont pay attention on application, it goes crooked... or my lashes stick together. Its just not as luxe as the Clinique which was just WOW on application.. but the bitch doesnt stay there so what can you do? There are also a few more highly recommended's on the forum. I might buy Lancome Hypose in waterproof next..
A person called me today with an enquiry and told me they earn 200K+ per annum (they were under 30)! I was going to proposition marriage on the spot, but that would go against my professional integrity. Where do I find a job that earns 200K+ without taking my clothes off?
P.S This person worked in computers, not my forte.
My leather jacket got delivered today, by express AIR freight. I put my order in late Thurs night, 2 business days later its at my door.
Are you listening Witchery? Just Jeans is owning your ass in efficiency and I will prob buy from them again and again, whereas you are going into my fashion Burn Book.
This further proves that pompous retailers are gay for no reason. Its not hard to do business well. It is possible to have decent quality products at a competitive price and not charge for top notch postage.
I never liked Just Jeans before this. I find their fashion very boring and its more targeted as a certain 'market'. Does middle class bush pig make sense? But this has totally won me over. From now on I'm going to buy alot more from their online store (even if its just basics because their other items kinda suck).
This is what to expect when you shop with them. Confirmation email within 5 mins of your purchase. It is processed imediately. A follow up email the next day outlining all your postage details (tracking number, receipt number etc). Lets you know that they will come between 8am-12pm. Someone needs to sign for it at the door, after 3 attempts they drop it off at the nearest depot where you can pick it up, worst comes to worst it gets sent back to Just Jeans and they attempt to contact you via their head office. It actually arrived 2 days before theyir estimate.
Witchery: I put my purchase it expecting it to be processed and deducted from my Visa immediately. I check my bank account 3 days later and notice excess funds. Realised my order had not even been put in. There is no email saying when my order will done. No exact details are given to me. I had to check on their website to see when it will actually arrive. The website says 5 - 7 days after processing (which may be never, for all I know). It arrives more than 1 week after I placed my initial order. Comes in some shitty bag from no frills horse cart drawn postage system ($14.95? Are you serious?).
Terrible.
I dont really know how Tony Bianco works, but it always get there within a week (and it is processed on the spot, not 4 days later when the admin girls get around to it). Mine always arrives in my room in shoe boxes with no extra wrapping.. Im sure things aren't posted in shoe box form because then I'd lose my shoes and the boxes would not be their prestine white. So someone in my fam either tampered with it.. or it got hand delivered to my door. Or the magic shoe fairy did it.
And the following retails, please get online stores? Pretty please with extra love?
Mollini/Midas and Kookai. There are many more but I'm drawing a blank.. and Sportsgirl can you please not assign only a limited number of items to your online store. Im sick of everything running out in size 6. Source them from your retailers or something. I missed out on my grey blazer, also my original leather jacket, it makes me very sad!
Ive never really blogged about work, or my job before. But I might as well give an insight, as I am doing some overtime right now, its almost 7p.m. and everyone believes government departments close at 4.30p.m. Meaning there is no one around and no one is calling on my services either. I'm just sitting there nibbling at my snacks and reading loads of MetroDad
Now I work in a semi-pish-posh, modern building. It has a big lobby, with a service desk, fresh flowers changed daily, art deco orange couches, 15 floors and 12 elavators. However, it is not grandure like some of those overindulgent private companies with their gold trimming and marble floors (not kidding, there are a few on Castlereagh St alone). we also have our own cafe down stairs (plus a Flight Centre, incase you get a bad case of Mondayitis/office blues and need to get the eff out of the country stat).
The actual office/floor I work in isnt bad either. We have 2 kitchens on either side of the office. Each with a good microwave and fridge. Dishes are washed for us by Mr Dish Washer (operated by our team leaders). Plus a coffee machine, vending machine, hot/cold water filter and flat screen TV for those lunch hour Oprah/Dr. Phil runs.
The only complaint I have is... There is only one womens toilet on the entire floor (two kitchens, but only one toilet?). It has constant plumbing problems and regularly stinks. I grew up in China, where there is no such thing as plumbing. My primary school (was a good one btw) had a giant giant (or so it seemed from a 7-year-olds perspective) concrete hole in the ground. With no taps, no toilet paper, and you squat over a little slit in the concrete itself.. there werent any doors either, and the 'cubicles' were seperated by half a meter high concrete slabs. And I'm starting the think concrete is the only building material approved by the Chinese government. That aside. It still did not smell the way our toilets do. I just dont understand where it comes from. Cubical uno (the closet to the door) has always been the one I choose, ever since I read in some unfounded 'scientific' research that it was the least used and has the least germs. But in this case its also the one that chooses to cough up x years of human waste. So now I have to use one of the other more germ infested cubicles.
Now I'm tired of writing and will finish eating my rasberry and pear bread. I know I'm on a "stop buying food at 3p.m. and only eat what your bought because you'll end up buying junk and get even fatter" - diet. But I was hungry :(
I promised myself sleep 10 minutes ago so this needs to be short and sweet.
The weekend was wonderfun as always. Considering I work fulltime, I have to make sure the weekend is filled with awesomeness.
- I had the car all weekend, so I gave Chi a break from driving me all over the world. :) I used almost 1/4 of the petrol tank in 2 days. Sigh.
- First thing on Sat was chores. I did my weeks laundry (I do it myself because I dont trust other people with my precious pieces), then cleaned the entire bathroom head to toe because my mum is too busy and I dont like it dirty. Then I washed the dog.. and took the longest shower. I need to take one really long shower each week to do some extra scrubbing. Plus my weekly face masks etc. Its very theraputic and I always feel accomplished at the end. Knowing I dont have anything waiting for me to do.
- I went to visit Leigh on Saturday as well because I hadnt seen my friends in so long and I miss them. We had a really nice lunch at George's along with her poodle x maltese Maggie. I felt very chic. I ordered lamb souvlaki and she had the New York cheese cake. It was great, we talked to loud, laughed too lunch and ate til we were fat.
- Also got to meet her new very expensive accessory, Pepper. An 8 week old shitzu x maltese puppy. Shees is so cute, tiny, fluffy and soft. I cant wait til this one grows up, bitch is going to be fierce! We love dogs.
- Went to Chi's to hang out and we eventually went to St. James. Its a pretty decent club, but still I felt out of place.
- I drove myself home at 2a.m. so the boys can party on.
- Today I got up at noon, ate 'breakfast' and read Madison at the same time. I love quiet Sunday mornings. Everything can be at leisurely pace. Took my shower, spent some time with my dog Pepsie (of undetermined breed). Then my prince charming came and picked me up.
- Went back to his place and played poker with siblings etc. I won the first round, and Chi won the second round. Haha.. Unbeatable. This is the first time I actually performed in poker without fluking it. Watching poker tournaments on TV def help. lol.
- We then took our 6p.m. nap. Or he takes his nap and I listen to him snore whilst day dreaming/floating in and out of light sleep.
And now I'm home and its back to work tomorrow.. Sad. But soon, its the LONG WEEKEND. 3 whole days to enjoy.
Tonight, I went clubbing. It affirmed that it's time to close that chapter once and for all. I was never a regular club go'er but I did have some good times.
Ive really, completely grown out of it though. It wasnt a bad experience. I did have some fun.. but I have more fun doing other things. It's a really toxic environment to be in, and I despise excessive behaviour. And there sure is alot of excessive drinking and whatever else going on.
I still love dancing though, so will need to find a better way to enjoy it.
Drinking really is not pleasant. So I dont do it, but watching other people is almost as painful. I dont mind so much when other people drink, but when they get drunk.. Being a sober person, watching a drunk not having control of themselves then doing things that hurt their self respect is terrible. It makes me really sad.
I can't stand excessive behaviour in any form. Be it drinking, smoking, drugs, spending money, playing WOW, eating, gambling... A lack of self control, perception and depth shows weak character. I wouldnt hate that person, or be rude to them but they will always be held in a distance. And I would definately not give that person my heart or love.
I'm a fussy girl about everything. Esp who I will be friends with. I protect myself with high standards..
Apparently, if a non-vox member person comments I have to approve it first? I dont even know how that works because I never pay attention to these things. Do they send me an email? Apparently there some way you can change that as well.. But I'm incompetent at computer related things.
That reminds me, my laptop/MSN/wireless are fighting and keep screwing up. Ive uninstalled my Windows Live and its made the wireless abit better but now I cant use instant messenging (not that I do). I dont know.. do I have a virus? Shaking it doesnt help. Although its about 3 years old now, so its around that stage where they choke. Maybe I need a new one... I might buy a MAC.
I bought a leather jacket.
YAY
I got FREE delivery.
YAY
Thanks Just Jeans.
