Gong Xi Fa Cai - its the most common Chinese new yr wishing phrase. have we all ran out of originality?
anyway, i guess many of us endure CNY with the same mixed pleasure and agony.
Pleasure derived from the Hong Baos and sore thoart inducing goodies;
Agony from forcing plastic smiles at relatives who question ur roots & bloodline to validate the $4 hongbao.
Plus all the brutal questions frm those deemed 'concerned' abt the ur future, and the path u're taking in life.
Best of all, Cantonese are well known critics,
giving comments on lousy pineapple tarts to horrid dress sense to other aunties geting fat, without lookin at their own expandin waistlines.
ALL IN PEIRCING, HIGH PITCHED CANTONESE. take this times 13 grammaa + aunties, hell would seem quiet.
(what am i doing getting attached to another cantonese?!)

so here's a list of FAQs and what i really feel lke answering.

"So old already ah!" - heh, you too leh!
"What school now? Expensive hor!" - yar, cos SIM only rich ppl can go ma.
"So pretty ah.." - this one my mum helps answer 'Mother pretty what!'
"Got boyfriend yet?" - yes. and i know u're thinking 'finally'.
"Did u lose weight?' - i like to be deluded.

well all's said and done, i gotta tabulate my hongbaos and see how much the recession ate away. GDP deflator formulae.

yes, we didnt meet for 3 days? you said it was kinda weird seeing me again. 'weird' 
cant u just say 'i miss u' ? egoistic pighead.
this song's by Plain White Ts. its sweet. 
1 2, 1 2 3 4- 
Give me more lovin' than I've ever had, 
Make it all better when I'm feelin' sad, 
Tell me that I'm special even when I know I'm not, 
Make it feel good when I hurt so bad, Barely gettin' mad, 
I'm so glad I found you; I love bein' around you. 

You make it easy, it's easy as 1,2- 1,2,3,4
There's only 1 thing 2 do 3 words 4 you- (I love you) I love you
There's only 1 way 2 say those 3 words and that's what I'll do-(I love you)
I love you.

Give me more lovin' from the very start, 
Piece me back together when I fall apart, 
Tell things you never even tell your closest friends- 
Make it feel good when I hurt so bad, Best I that I've had, 
I'm so glad I found you, I love bein' around you. 

You make it easy, it's easy as 1,2- 1,2,3,4
There's only 1 thing 2 do 3 words 4 you- (I love you) I love you
There's only 1 way 2 say those 3 words and that's what I'll do- (I love you)
I love you.
(I love you) I love you.

Carmen's Secret ;p

ITS 2009!
hello new life, new people, new friends, new zest, new attitudes, new clothes & new lingerie!

speaking of which V.S. screened last night!
my secret is that i religiously catch it every year possible, because
1) the lingerie collection is to-die-for dazzling, yet impossibly out of reach
2) the models are stunning, curvaciously gorgeous and a whole lotta fun
3) guests perfomers are usually sexy, sleek crooners like J.T and Usher
and
4) the whole show motivates you to get up and achieve that hot bod hidden somewhere beneath.

so anyways, here are a few personal favourites. and my V.S. angel is Miranda Kerr! and her beau is Orlando Bloom! *faints* life of the gorgeous.

Lingerie is a woman's celebration of her God given assets. For normals girls like Brenda & me, we make-do with Cotton On's collections. HAHA!
but oh, if you do get me the V.S. collection, i'd gladly model it! ;p

now, back to my MacroEcons MCQ...

i learnt that i am in Demand, and in short Supply, making my equilibirum price really high and qty to be..exclusive: just ONE !

3 Cheers to my Heavenly Creator! Blessings/Life = infinity. i believe the two have a positive relationship! =)
