My Poor Eye
My poor eye.
My poor eye!!!
My left eye has an infection now.
It’s swollen.
It’s really swollen.
It’s reddish.
I can’t see properly when I look left.
But above all, it’s PAINFUL.
It’s really painful.
It’s really, really, really painful.
My poor eye.

Last Friday I went out with Grace and Wan Qi to 1 Utama and we literally shopped until we nearly dropped… at least that’s true for Grace and I. From 11 am to 8 pm! We were walking and walking and walking and the only time we weren’t walking was when we went to Bakerzin and had a mid-afternoon tea time which ended up becoming our lunch.
Counter clockwise starting from the upper left… some ice-cream I can’t remember the name, some chocolate raspberry thing I can’t remember the name, vanilla and hot chocolate pana cotta, new york cheesecake, caramel vanilla pana cotta, and claira (haha I only remember this cos it sounds a bit like my name).
Basically we just sat and chit-chatted and camwhored a lil bit for an hour or so… in the middle of our conversation there was a black-out in the place. But everything was fine a while later. Just a temporary black out. The pana cotta was excellent! We shared, 3 for RM13.50. Next time I go there, I’m eating 3 for myself! *greedy look*
Grace and I shopped around for a lot of winter clothing. I ended up buying a white turtleneck sweater, a grey wool hoodie sweater, two mittens, two beanies, four socks, a long-sleeve shirt, a Paul Frank rock monkey t-shirt, three nail polishes from Ionti, a french manicure set, and a spaghetti strap from Somerset Bay. All in all it was about RM500 *gasp*
And Wan Qi was soooo sweet for just tagging along patiently watching Grace and I choose winter clothing!
That’s enough winter clothing for me, though. I doubt I can fit any more into my luggage.
We learned that 1) don’t leave your down feather jacket in the sun and 2) wool and cashmere are the warmest materials for sweaters, don’t go for holey stuff even though it looks nice.

Whereas todayyy I went out with my girlies! Finally, back from Melbourne, Australia! We hung out in my room for a while before making a move to Midvalley. We went straight to Esquire for lunch and I actually ate 4 flower paus. I can’t believe myself. Do I wanna lose weight or not!? And I can some more eat 4 flower paus. Ugh. Ok nemind. Next time I’ll try not to eat so horrendously much.
We took pictures in front of the gingerbread house! You knew this was coming…
I was having a bad hair day + my poor, poor, poor eye… so I wasn’t very photogenic lah. But the gingerbread houses were adorable! I think I prefer these decorations to last years "winter wonderland". Anyway, we went to only a few shops but we left Midvalley very happy people. Our route was basically… the same… old… usual… trail…
I managed to get something from Vincci, Metrojaya (Somerset Bay), and Miss Selfridge :oD
Leen bought a gray spag top from MNG and Mayn bought the same spag as me but in purple. After that, we went home and I decided to take a look at the presents that Leen and Mayn got me from Australia…
Leen got me… caramel koalas. Caramel Tim-tams. Caramel Kit kat bar. Caramel… hazelnut chocolate bar. A pair of diva earrings, and a care bears t-shirt. She actually went out and got me another birthday card too, since her birthday present to me got lost in the stupid Malaysia post office system. So sweet of her! *touched*
Mayn got me almond cookies from Macau, an Alice band and a butterfly purse from Australia. So so so sweet of her too… an Alice band is just what I need right now (seeing as the hair dresser cut my fringe so damn short last week).
After munching on one caramel koala bear which are btw delicious, please do get some if you go to Australia (and don’t forget me!), I took a look at the back of my new Miss Selfridge jeans…
I decided it looked kinda plain. A bit too plain.
It might look better with something on it. Some sort of decorations.
Hmmm.
After thinking about it for a while, trying out different designs and patterns in my mind, 66 diamond crystals and a hot iron later… I ended up with this!
Want a close-up?
Well, even if you don’t, here is a close-up anyway :oD
And that concludes my day!
