year end wish list : you can feel it coming!

yeah i know, i've been away too long. sorry about that. as some of you might know, i just started a new job with Pos Malaysia as ... ok, honestly, i don't know what i am yet because right now i'm doing pretty much of whatever that's thrown at me. sometimes i'll be translating and writing stuff, sometimes i'll help designing stuff. i don't mind it really, because everyone there multitasks and they do not berkira if they're doing what they're not paid to do.

it's been quite hectic with things moving way too fast for me to catch up. As i came on board, the team was already in the middle of preparing for the launch of our new product, PostMe.com.my, a new online shopping portal. check it out! (sorry. obligatory shout out). i will not go on much detail about my new job for fear it may bore you. as is my life, but all i can say is that, i'm glad i'm part of a good, dynamic team again. it feels good.

anyway, it's that time of the year again. my birthday is coming up this month, so, you know what to expect from me right about now -- a roundup of the things i don't mind getting. so if there's any secret santas, or if you're my husband, pay attention please. heh. i'm not at all demanding, i only have 16 stuff in my list.

for now.

Here's part 1 :

1. i have a few shoulder bags but i do not have a black one. impossible, right? yeah. so i kinda like this one from Zara. the husband started browsing through some of the stuff from my wishlist the next day this post was up. isn't he the most awesome? he got me a bag from zara, not the one on my wishlist though. a better one that can actually fit my macbook or his iPad. ilochi
   
2. i went to Marks & Spencer the other day to look for pants and my husband left me alone, which was a bad move on his part because naturally, as any other woman would be, i went wandering around not looking for pants and fell in love with this black cage shoe.
   
3. I need another bottle of Benetint. mine's about to run out. i think it's really amazing that a bottle can last almost 3 years! Thank YOU mama! ilochi
   
4. I collect Christoper Moore's books. And i'm already missing out of a couple of his new books, like this one, Bite Me. have it!
   
5. While we're on the subject of books, i'd love to read through Heather Armstrong of Dooce's book, It Sucked and then I Cried. I've been following her since her first born, Leta was just a baby, and i know i'm gonna love her book. Not sure if i can find this book here, though. had to order them from Amazon and since Falie has an account already, got him to get it from me and he refused to take my money. Thanks, falie, ilochi!
   
6. I still want a copycat cheap chic of the Kartell Ghost Chair.
   
7. I was browsing through Soak Republic the other day. I don't know why i do that to myself. i love pain, i guess. the pain of at first not really wanting anything and just being content with life and all that i have and then put myself into trouble when i went looking for it and now having sleepless nights of wanting something so much. I'm now dreaming about a couple of stuff from Soak Republic, one being this cute antique looking oldskool FM2 pendant and chain. the silver one goes so well paired with my camera charm bracelet.
   
8. I know, this is a bit lavish on the wishlist this year, but with so much i can do with the DKNY cozy, the dozen of versatile and stylish way to wear it, makes it worth it, don't you think? i don't own any couture designer brands when it comes to clothing, accessories and makeup, but i will aspire (and pray really hard) to get this one!
   

Ok. That's the first list. I'm still collecting my wishes. Heh.

p/s : arwen's newsletter is being drafted. sorry for the delay, but stay tuned.
