Fell in love with a Prada

Yes yes, call me a faithless bitch, but I've actually fallen in love with a bag from Prada for once... Made of soft buck/deer skin, it's part of the latest SS 09 collection and has that fantastic gradient treatment.

I missed out the gorgeous LV Mirage the last round, what with it being limited edition and all, so I am in total anguish at the second chance at this great piece from Prada. Unfortunately the price in S'pore is not so nice... Priced at S$3120, I am thinking whether I should just give up and go. Another thing is, I am such a careless person, I will probably soil and spoil the buck leather within weeks of acquisition.

However, I have just gone onto the official Prada website and it appears that its a lot cheaper when purchased online and delivered to the UK where the Godma of my son resides. Am seriously considering whether I should ask her to help me buy and then get one of our returning friends to bring it over for me. Its GBP950 which makes it about S$2250 at the current exchange rate.

How ah? Should I buy it?

Time heals everything... fate is a wonderous thing

I have to agree sometimes fate is a weird thing.

Once upon a time, I gazed on photos of someone else with tears of sadness that get swallowed back down into the depths of my heart. Yet years later, I can look at the very same photo and smile knowing that the person who was once so important may have already become a stranger, but yet i remain content knowing that he/she is happy with what they have in their life.

AY said that she must stop being jealous. But as ES said to me, human emotions such as desire, passion and jealousy are innate in all of us. As long as these emotions remain part of human nature, we will never be rid of them.

I look at Wallace and wonder at the miracle of life sometimes. How is it that this Little Boy out of the million of other little souls queuing up in heaven came to me? And I think again about the other hundreds of unwanted babies that are aborted or miscarried and wonder again about fatedness.

Time erases the tides of pain. People always say that time heals all wounds... I cannot agree more... so if any one is hurting out there, be content knowing that one day all will be well and cherish all that you hold now and that will come in time...

It's been 2 years at the Clan!

Wow... It's been 2 years... 2 short but eventful years at the clan... I got married, my desk got shifted, I got pregnant, I got a kid, I got small bonuses along the 3way, underwent a handful of training courses and I am now on maternity leave.

It seems just yesterday that I first stepped in and sat down at my desk.. yet at the beginning of this month, I was already training an intern to take my place and cover me while I am gone. The intern tells me that he may have to leave even earlier. hey that reminds me!! I should attend the online courses everyday! There are now a myriad of online courses available on my company website/intranet... wahah! At last! Some semblence of meaning and goals in my life.

I am starting to want to go back to something meaningful that can occupy my entire morning and afternoon other than staring at the black box known as the TV. Maybe I should go back to work earlier... Arghh... I never truly understood the pains of being a stay at home mom...

If there's anything I have discovered about myself during this one month, is that I don't like to stay at home and I definitely dislike lying in bed unless its with the man in my life undressed.. wahahah! whoo hoo!

Damn, my heart is straying to the secular world again... new life, new journey... ARGHHHH I miss my old life! Hahaha!!!!!
