life is a bouquet of Princess Irene™

3 things that perked me up over the past 2 days

*un*
note: let's try and ignore whats written on the card. haha

Meet Princess Irene™
*mega watt smile*
this very very pleasant surprise came in 2 days ago and
unsuspecting me was in shock when i collected it from the courier.
Apparently this man called, spoke in a terribly painful
cantonese-accented mandarin which almost killed me.
Then when i asked who he was, he said
"你不知道我! 我是你的男朋友... ..."
(ok that was all i could figure)
all of a sudden the instant spinning headache hit me so
i gave up and reluctantly went down to see what this fella was up to.
And when i saw him, he handed me this bunch of something,
with the top wrapped in black trash bag.
(yea this Princess came dressed in a trash bag. cool aye?)
Anyhow i 'undressed' it and taadaa!
Beee-u-tee-ful Princess Irene™!!! ha.
<3
A gazillion thanks to
SULIN & MUFFINS!!!
(urm,although the card only says su-lin-ong*lol*)
i got both ya love from miles away!
*blows huge flying kisses over*
What more can i say?
You both are such sweethearts!
The flowers really did make things a whole lot better for me.
thankie thankie thankie !!!
Both of u made me a very very happy girl.
p/s: im leaving the flowers to dry so i can keep them with me for a longer time =)

*deux*
Kate's back from TW with my Majolica Majorca!
The mascara reads:

the one person that wasnt supposed to fail u let u down.
the one person that was spposed to love u stopped lovin u.
the one person whom u thought is the closest to your heart wouldnt understand.
the one person that was supposed to care dont fuckin give a damn no more.
you cry.
cry like there's no tomorrow.
but so what?
no one cares whether u exist or not.
ur existance doesnt make any diff in anyone's life anyway.
all the tears u shed aint gona change anything
one day u're just gona leave this world,
and nobody's gona even remember u ever existed.


im standing at the edge.
lend me a hand.
just fuckin push me over.

Bring me back...

...to where i came from.
Somewhere i truly belong to.
where the skies are filled with fluffy cotton-white clouds,
where the smell of rain is love and not headache,
where sunshine gives warmth and not frustration,
where the grass is green and everything smells amazing,
where going home makes me feel at-home,
where the motherhood is there to nag(no im not saying i enjoy it),
where the killer instinct in me isnt triggered everyday,
where im back to civilisation and everyone is far less than stupid,
(i can seriously go on and on till the cows come home)
but most importantly,
i just wana go back to a place where i'm surrounded by
those who care and love.


i can honestly feel myself slowly disintegrating...
my mind, my heart, my soul, everything.
The constant self-reminder:
"what doesnt kill me makes me stronger".
Until one day someone told me,
"what doesnt kill you takes your soul away".
... ...
Right now i must say im totally going thru the latter.

yes, im very much still alive, thankfully.
all the mad rush of quotations and what-nots
didnt kill me...it just almost took my soul away..
i think i seriously needa good break
when i'm completely done with all the whatevers.
... ...
past 20days or so has been the busiest period in the entire year.
Annual HK International Lighting Fair ended on 31st
and even after 2 whole weeks, there is still a whole stack
of quotations waiting for me to follow up on.
Then i concluded that there are pple out there who takes flooding
someone else's mailbox as a hobby(READ: pleasure). And i swear
these hobbyists are causing me to suffer from yet another phobia.
Im startin to get the jitters from clickin on that Outlook Express icon.
I can friggin sense its murderous aura lurking from under the screen.
Fuckin scary. They should have a name for such phobia.
Maybe its called Emailophobic?
ok. never mind.
... ...
anyhow, the motherhood was here for bout 2 weeks and
home she went yesterday.(yes i miss her already)
Life's pretty much back to normal for me now.
I needa clear that pile of shit ASAP and get ready to end the
year in the most perfect note(i hope).
Kate's heading back to TW some time next week and she
thinks it's a good time for me to take a short break with her.
I would honestly LOVE to if i could.
11 1/2 months passed w/o a holiday to anywhere.
All work and no play makes Irene an angry girl.
Gahhhhh...
hokay.. maybe i should just tuck myself into bed soon
so i can stop thinking of all the angry things.
Nights and sweet dreams,
with love and no anger please.


p/s: i have a million and one photos to share.
Here's just one of the many many.
The new Venetian in Macau.
