Been super busy the last few weeks with don’t know what too!! Hahahah…everything is at hyper speed now, as we speak. Busying with the Xmas party is of the utmost agenda. The hotel room, the make-up, clothes, food, party games, prezzies, gift exchanges and all the co-ordination is going at a frantic pace!!
I guessed I had been having lotsa fun gearing up for this big event. Spending lots of time and effort on the perfect gift for my loved ones and hunting down the best bargains too. My bank account has been bleeding profusely since the last pay slip came in. Oh my God, the money just gushed out like the rapids @ NZ!! Hahaha…And I dipped into my savings too. That’s the worst scenario ever!! Just saw the credit card bill, and guess what??!!…it’s a hefty $677.15!!!!!! The biggest ever bill ever amounted! Sian…now I also don’t know how to pay my dad..haiz…..Can’t wait for payday to come again!!! *wishing money can drop from the sky NOW!!*
Anyway, back to happy thoughts :). The Xmas party preparation is gonna be the biggest party yet, in terms of budget. This year, we really go all out. And here’s the “lovely” breakdown:
Swissotel room - $36
Gift exchange - $16
Accessories from Chomel - $55
Make-up & hair - $58
Gifts for J&J - $53 (and counting)
Gift for Irene - ??? (hmmm…most probably under $50)
It’s already totaling up to a neat sum of $250. And I’m not even done yet!!!!!! WOW!!! That’s why I kept stressing, it’s gonna be the BIGGEST AND the most Expensive party ever organised by us. Hahahah…sad part is, it’s always the same people attending. It may be the most expensive, but it’s only big in spirit and not in numbers. Oh well, it’s the company that counts, and not the number of people I guess.
I even wanna top it up with a new pair of boots to complete my look (which I freaking have no idea how it will turn out…Egyptian eyes make-up, almost a black ensemble, some Japanese hairstyle, pink glossy lip-gloss, and finishing up with a body full or gold and silver giltters.) hmmmmm…….androgynous?? most likely… :p Seems like after checking my account, that boots just gotta wait for another year… :p
Been feeling the shopping bug catching on to me. Was shopping for sunnies and tried a couple luxe brands, like Dsquared and Police, and they looked darn good! Down side, Dsquared is $670 (before 30% off) and Police is way in my league @ $270. It’s very comfy but the price was super steep. So, gonna check out my neighborhood optical shops for Police sunnies and lock that into my company’s account. Kekekeek.. :p If not, it will be the Mercury Raybans (which is not what I’m expecting. I want an exact replica of what MJ wore in his music video…haiz…) @ $185, which I know can be lower even further. Good luck to me!!
So much to buy this 2009. My intended purchases span from DSLR, to multi travel plans spread between the next 5 years, to luxe watches, to nice perfumes and sunnies, and back to my fav, clothes!!! Phew!!! What a year of fickle shopping lists…hahahahah…think I gotta start small and bring it up a notch when my pay gets better. Now, it’s back to planning my Xmas & NYE party and baking that yummy, rummy fruitcake!!! Yayz!!! :p
