the after math



I must admit that I'm an impulsive shopper. I have a shopping problem okay? I almost never come home empty handed and I almost always regretted what I've bought. But I'm getting better now. When I'm into something, I must convince myself that I really really really like, other than that, I wouldn't buy it. Although I've slipped every once and a while.. :s

Well, shopping must be one of the best feeling in the world (I know I'm so pathetic), but it is.. I'm a true mall hopper. I could stay all day everyday just at malls. Hoping from one shop to another given me an instant feeling of.... err hardly describe. I don't even know how I feel. Happy? Maybe. Cos stores never fail me. When I'm down, I just go to the mall next door, checking in and out what's new in my fave stores. One thing for sure, I'm a solo shopper. When I need advice, the rightest person that can answer my doubt is just me, myself, and I. If I bring my friends to shop with me, I often end up to buy what they choose, not mine.
When you love shopping dearly, you also have to balance your big outcome with bigger income. Especially when you're in mid-twenties (and just got out of college) but strive to stay fashion forward and on top of the trends. While at the same time, noone willing to fund you and you can't depend to anyone else but yourself. How can we cope with this? Worst case scenario? Facing the after math. Like zero balance on your ATM card or maximum debt limit on your credit card. I bet shit like that happens everytime. I've been there too. But it's weird cos I didn't feel wary. I keep coming back for more. And the budget is increasing from time to time. Ahh shopping is like a black hole that ready to gulp "YOU", fashionista.. down. You know... the black hole theory? We have to spinning faster and faster to keep in track, and when we don't spin fast enough, we'll be swallow by the black hole. 

I don't wanna be like that. I wanna be a smart shopper, a wise spender. Geez. Now I realize what makes my boyfriend refuse to marry me. (joking... Not!?) But I keep dig and digging a big hole in my closet. Big enough to support me in my -after marriage- life. Cos I know, by the time I get married, I won't be able to shop like cray cray. I've been aware by my boyfriend like, a thousand times. And we made a deal. What kind of girlfriend made a deal even though her boyfriend hasn't put a ring on it? LOL

Oh my..... Is there any cure for this kind of addiction? Shop less, save more. Four words that apparently  easier written than done.

I'm shaking as I type this.  After so many years I haven't update my blog, but i feel like now i need it more than ever.  Writing use to be my therapy.  so. my husband died. on 22-11-22 to be exact.  85 days ago  there. i say it.  you won't believe how much courage i've gathered to type this post here. the very blog that witness our journey. from a hopeless teenager, to finally got married, and eventually became parents of two adorable kids. too bad i didn't get a chance to update it more. however i frequently updated my twitter & instagram. so there are traces of our journey there as well.  how do i feel? PAIN. EXCRUCIATING PAIN. A PAIN THAT IMPOSSIBLE TO CURE My heart so tattered that there's nothing more to be torn. He died a sudden death. I won't go into details, at least not now. Our 20 years journey ended abrubtly. there goes our future hopes and dreams. __________________ I begin to questioning the existence of God. We've lead a good life. we&

Dearest,  We both know that we've been through some major ups and downs. There were those hard times when we didn't look each other's eyes.. But also there were those happier times when we laughed together and hugged each other very tight. Sorry cos I haven't make you proud.. :( But that doesn't mean I love you any less.  Deep down inside I'll always be your little girl. Thank you for being the best Dad in the world.. You've no idea how much I love and adore you. Happy birthday! GBU abundantly xoxo

bye bye baby...

bye bye baby... Valentino Rossi's career at Yamaha finally comes to an end after seven years full of bittersweet memories.. Next year, he will be "back home" to Ducati and maybe will finish his motoGP career there. I can't imagine how motoGP would be without Rossi. It will be the end of an era. first kiss, first winning Last week GP at Valencia was very emotional and heartbreaking especially for Rossi who had to kiss his Yamaha M1 for the last time, just like what he did seven years ago at Welkom (first winning with Yamaha). From what I've read in his autobiography book, Rossi considered his M1 as a woman, a girlfriend whom he loved dearly.. Too bad Yamaha finally chosen Lorenzo instead of Rossi (I read somewhere that Rossi would do anything he can to be with Yamaha till the end of his career, he wouldn't mind being a mechanic or else). Geez! Does Yamaha forget everything that Rossi has done for them? Yamaha was a trash back then! Rossi came and raised
