Did woke up at 4am to go to NEXT sale. Bought 2 pants, 3 skirts, 1 bag and a coat, altogether about 120 pounds!! WOW!! Don't worry cos I'm going to refund about 80 pounds worth of items.

Got to buy home to try as there's no fitting rooms for trying and no mirrors to see how you look like with the clothes. Refund will on start on Wed.

Christmas is coming. Saw the weather forecast and it likely to snow in UK with the snow reaching Cambridge on Boxing Day (26th)! (Yippy!!!) Hope it snow, hope it snow....!!!

Going to work tomorrow (not sure what to do at work cos the clients are mostly already on leave, thus I think I might leave early..) and will only start work on 4th Jan 05! Long holiday.

As Christmas Day and Boxing Day fall on weekends, 27th & 28th of Dec are public holiday in UK to make up for it and so is 3rd Jan for New Year Day. Thus only took unpaid leave for 3 days.

Christmas Day is a boring day for me in UK cos all the shops (even supermarket) are closed, so nowhere to go and is struck at home watching TV (not Simpson I hope!!). Come to think of it, the way Britain celebrates Christmas is just like how we celebrate Chinese New Year. Going home for reunion dinner, no shops are open, stocking up on food, etc.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the shopping after Boxing Day. Real bargain hunting. Hope I wouldn't spend too much... :)

Refund



Coat
Originally uploaded by abtmay.

Saw this coat on sale at Gap for 50 pounds last month and I didn't buy it cos it was too expensive. Went out shopping during lunch time today and saw it again at reduced price at 30 pounds!!! MUST GRAB!!!

Bought it knowing that it's too similar to the black coat I bought this year .... Think I just buy it for the thrill of buying!! (thank God for the 14 days refund policy in UK)

Sam said that I look fat in it and Serene said that I look old in it. Guess that's a NO in keeping the coat...

Will go and refund this weekend........:(

女人很小氣

Rule 1 : Do not offend woman.
Rule 2 : If you do offend woman, God bless you cos she will remember for life!!

No sure how I'm going to adapt back to my hectic lifestyle when I'm back in S'pore working. I just had a 9 to 3 day today, and when I'm saying 9 to 3, I'm stretching it cos I did play a few games of 'Spider Solitaire' and went for an hour lunch, effectively......... I think I only worked at most 3 hours today.

Oh well, at least I got my work done now and the manager can review it next week. Been working from about 8.30 to 5 for a few days last month and took work back home too, thus this make up for the 'lazy' day today (trying to comfort myself for the 'lazy day' today).

So do we work to live or live to work???

I'm Simpson overdosed!!! Eversince we got Skyone, Sam had been watching Simpson everyone from 6pm to 8pm. 4 episode everyday, that's 28 episode a week, about 112 episode a month. Too much Simpson!!!!! for me..... That why I sitting on here typing this... :(

Sam thinks that the angel on the left is like 'mad woman' cos the hair too messy. Anyway, I love it so I'm displaying it on top of the TV for Christmas.
