Btw, there won’t be a continuation Post-Exam Bliss Part 2 blog post ’cause from here on out, all my posts is really all about post exam bliss already whut.

Went for my appointment at the Aroma Garden spa at Mid Valley last Saturday and it was, sigh, heavenly :)
I don’t go for spas and massages very often, I mean of course we don’t, we’re not exactly rich aunties, but gosh, pampering yourself once in awhile can’t hurt! :)

Well actually the body scrub session did hurt a little, the nice lady but damn strong lady gave me a massage using what I think was body salt, or sand, which left my skin a little pinkish and sore after that, (1 full hour of scrub-scrub-scrubbin’ is gonna do that to you)
butbutbut at least now my skin is now really soft, smooth and supple! *feels own skin*
and radiant too, I’m practically glowing. Reallyyy!

Studying for exams while being imprisoned at home left me a lot of time to procrastinate.
And what started out as a general activity to pass the time when I’m damn mouliew, looking through the online community of shopping blogs of Malaysia, buying a thing or two, or three, or four….. (basically you get my drift and now I’m hella broke)
This soon became a down right obsession - for, well,
Fashion blogs.
More particularly, street styles and your ordinary-people sort of fashion.
I had no idea these website were bloody everywhere, until I took the time to well, procrastinate and look around
At first it was just one or two that I frequent, now suddenly I have a whole list on my bookmarks, which I now visit religiously, thank you very much.

Here’s a few favs, because sharing is caring,
My bookmarks categorized under My morning fix. Speaks for itself, doesn’t it :)
Loved in no particular order:

Your Boyhood.
The Style Scout.
The Sartorialist.
Face Hunter.
Tongue in Chic. malaysian made!
The Streets Of. malaysian made!
Dam Style.
Fashion Snap.
Fashionista’s Playground. malaysian made!
Easy Fashion.
The Clothes Horse.
Come Thrifting With Me.
Fashion Toast.
That’s Just My Vibe.

Oops, not exactly a short few, but whateva.
Any other favourites you fashionistas out there frequent? Care to share? :)

I’m leaving for Melbourne in a week and I haven’t even begun to pack.

‘Cause my to-do list, or rather, post-exams-pre-Melbourne to do list is not complete yet!
Albeit halfway done, but still! The empty un-ticked boxes next to each item worries me

Cut hair! Hair appointment is tomorrow and I still don’t know what to do with me long locks, potong biasa or should I revisit my fringe/bangs days? Very long ago, and very short-lived.

Look for winter clothes! And not just your regular winter clothes, but I’m looking for a combination of warmth, comfort, style *cool shades*
Been looking around and I wanna wear scarves! and beanies! Hats and headpieces galore!
I never get to wear them here in Malaysiaaa!
But Boyfriend who’s lived in Australia for 2 years laughed at me says I’ll look like a tourist, mehh guess that rules out mittens and ear-muffs.

Nuffnang animal outfit! Ok this one worries me the most. The party is this Saturday and the animal I initially planned to go as was something I thought was ingenius and uncommon;
but now rumour-rumour a lot of people are going as the same animal not so ingenius after all, huh.

Find a new blog header for goodness sake. Yea that goes without saying.

And I can’t believe I’ll be missing Urbanscapes 2008!
Slap yourself if you don’t know what it is, as it’s been advertised every-fricking-where, well at least all over the internet and radio, that is. And oh look, here I am indirectly advertising the event as well :)
I’d have reached the land down under by then, so please blog about the event with pictures galore if you’re attending, so you can make me jealous, okay thanks

Currently listening to: Alicia Keys - Lesson Learned (feat. John Mayer)

   That’s a little harsh. This may be biased but i honestly think it’s a somewhat difficult to be “fashionable” when you’re in Malaysia. You can’t truly be bold and daring without fear of being ridiculed, plus the fact that there’s only one season. You need fashion with some practical sense as well. So i think she’s doing fine considering all the other factors. :)
