Sunday Mix

I thought the scene of hungry camera men and car show girls would only exist in MK....no.. surrounded by the gangs of bun bun, there's an motorcycle show held by harley davidson in the middle of central on sunday.... obviously the targets of the cameras were not the motorcycles but the half naked girls... although the girls might be enjoying being shot by strangers (probably imagining themselves turning into a star with one of the pictures), I felt sorry for them..being identified not by who they are but what they are wearing...I am so glad that I got the education that I needed..for not being ended up with one of them.

Tea set at Mandarin Oriental. Delicious finger sandwiches, interesting savory pastry with fusion variation, traditional desserts which identify four major elements of sweet pastry: fruit, mousse, cheese and chocolate.
Well baked scone on the side of the tea set with the signature rose jam...I was so tempted to buy a jar of this back home.. =P...


I've BROKE my promise!!!!! I promised myself to buy a pair of classic black leather pumps after I cash out of my CM investment.... Unfortunately I lost control of myself.. I decided to buy this pair of Ferragamo instead of Miu Miu (4" heel is really too much for me). These come in handy for the parties and social events in the next 2 months.

Okay.. I probably have been giving a deceptive image of me being high-maintenance with all the expensive clothing and dining experience..In order to prove that I am not, this is what I was wearing today: H&M purple sweater dress, no-brand black patent leather belt, blue heros distressed cigarette jeans and anya hindmarch leather boots...but still looked expensive.

Those are the days... the minuscule chairs and tables and chalkboard brought me back to the old days..I remember sitting in one of these little chairs feeling dumb but eager to learn, I wasn't the smartest but always wanted to be better..seems like my mantra hasn't changed for 20 yrs..

In the middle of a group dinner:
Girlfriend X: I am learning how to drive..I just had my first lesson last week.
Me: Really?! that's great..are you planning on getting a new car?
Girlfriend X: No... I just have a lot of free time during weekends.. I don't know what else I can do, since I don't have a license yet..so I decided to pick up driving..
Me (feeling puzzled): So, you are not planning to drive after you get a license? but you need to practice in order to master the skills...
Girlfriend X: Yeah.. I don't know.. I just want to get the license..
Me (giving up on understanding her rationale): hum.. since you said you have a lot of free time on your hand.. Why not volunteer?
Girlfriend X: .......... (then go on discussing which branded fad bag she should get next)

Not being judgmental.. but sometimes I do have problem communicating with some of the girls..
