to be or not to be.

i just had to post this quick, fairly frivolous entry about a bag i've been lusting for since it came out.
i have never, i repeat, NEVER ever gotten this crazy about a bag b4!
and i'm not a brands kinda girl. no, i don't have to wear dior or chanel or the works.
i usually just stand and admire from afar.
but eh-ma-gawd.
i got reminded of this bag,
the first ever bag that i had such a strong strong reaction to ever since i laid eyes on it.
it is gorgeous. seriously.

behold;

the Miu Miu Coffer Leather Handbag.




(yeah i know, it's totally out of season now. but i care not! i still like it! i would have liked it better if it wasn't miu miu so i can afford it better, alas.)
totally pretty-making!
and functional.
i sooo want this.
if i ever have this bag, i'd prolly bring it out like, everyday.
or maybe just buy a glass cabinet to display it.
both ways, i'm still putting the bad to good use, don't you agree!

i wish someone would get me the bag,
it's all i want for christmas!

okay maybe not all i want for chirstmas. but it is my top 3!
lol i should make a christmas list. yes, i WILL make a christmas list!
who cares if its only august now, i'm gonna make my list asap!
just not now though. now i just wanna look at my Miu Miu bag and gush over it.
i'm imagining what i can wear with it..
which is pretty much any clothes :D

but i don't think i can get it cors it's about USD1,500 excluding shipping (just for a leather bag, my mom would say) and it's sold out at net-a-porter :(
i've seen some like $300 or even a $60 one in sg! but i dare not trust it. what if there are horrible defects or if the leather grows fungi like chialynn's leather bracelet lol

okay, blah.
i'll end this rant now.

i'll post my christmas list real soon!
and!
haha i was camwhoring with my dad just now,
i'll put up pictures soonnnn
you can totally laugh your heart out to that.
well, at least i did.

i'm ususally not this crazy, just to have you know.
i'm not thaaat materialistic lol honest.
clothes and accessories are simply necessities, is all.
like how those 2 new dresses and that new top are necessities too.

gosh i want some new shoes.
like heels and dr martens!

let's go shopping!
who's with me?? :D






edit:
after calming down from my outburst,
i can calmly and rationally say that i do not need so much clothes and that i should save instead of spending every penny i have. and that i am really contented with all that i have and wish for nothing more. i'm going over to my corner to repent and reflect for a while. i mean, the physical things will pass away but the spiritual things will not.
i'm re-arranging my priorities now.
change my mindset. no matter how pretty that miu miu bag is. no matter how good it may look with my new dress. no matter how gorgeous the design of the bag is, the plaits, the pleats and the brown.
i can do this!
:D

when i was young;

in primary sch,
i remember watching my classmate in the canteen, during recess or lunch, and thinking how i wished i did that too.
he would always order his food, go to a table with his friends
and just b4 he takes his first bite,
he will bow his head,
hands clasped together,
and muttered a silent thanksgiving prayer.
(something that we often know as 'saying Grace')

now back then,
no one else did this but him.
not even myself, when i knew i should have done so- seeing as i was a christian.
but i never had the courage.
i was afraid my friends would think me weird, or sometimes i simply forgot.
and i did not give my thanks b4 every meal for quite a while..
until this image of my classmate with his eyes closed, thanking the Almighty Father that he had another meal to partake entered my mind.

so to this day,
just b4 i take my first bite,
i will remember this classmate and
i will bow my head,
hands clasped together,
and mutter a silent thanksgiving prayer.


he motivated me.
he's the kind of example i wanna be.

bubbles, don't burst them.

there's a kingfisher in my estate!

i was walking out to the side gate just now to pass the cam to rae,
when i suddenly noticed the trees, flowers, everthing about my surroundings!
i mean, i HAVE noticed the lovely scenery around me for what, 7 years?
but today, everything looked extra beautiful and ethereal in the morning sunlight.
or maybe it's just 'cause i'm real happy after two nights of FOP.

anyhooo, as i was saying,
there's a kingfisher in my estate!
i don't know about you but like i rarely see kingfishers anywhere else.
and there was this big blue pretty kingfisher sitting on the rails of the pond.
it's like a mini eco-system in here!
the kingfishers (yeah i saw two of them) would eat the fishes in the pond, the residents will feed the fishes and tortises with bread and the stray birds will eat the crumbs!

there are yellow colored birds flying around too, with pretty butterflies you can see fluttering around the brightly colored flowers. there are lotsa green grass areas like small fields and this place just reminds me of botanic gardens.
maybe even better, since there's a swimming pool here with a local mart and security guards who patrol now and then.
and almost everyone knows each other!
the maids would meet in the afternoon, while walking the dogs, and just chit-chat their time away. as the dogs lie down lazily, looking at each other.
sadly, marquis is too shy to be with the other dogs so my maid won't really associate with the other maids much.
yes, marquis is very shy. he's not an angry man-eating growling unfriendly monster.
you should see the small yapping dogs who bark shrilly when they see him.
AS I WAS SAYING,
this place is like a small community!
so peaceful, and tranquil.
like a village!
even the cleaners are kind people.
honestly, it's perfect as it is :)
i don't think i'd change one bit of it.




now all we need are traffic lights to make this place a town.
and maybe a celebrity neighbour to move in and up the status of this town.
and maybe a shopping mall
with shops like f21, pull and bear, topshop and wetseal!
and a small polytechnic maybe. so i need not travel elsewhere.
shop, study. shop, study. swim, shop, study.
and if all my bestfriends moved into the estate..
and if hot guys moved in too.
why not even open up a cityharvest church here as well!

this place will be bursting with happy and fulfilled people.


okay fine, maybe only me.
