I wish I had an older brother who’ll annoy, tease and protect me like any other older brother would instead of having two bratty younger brothers whom I have to bear with, give in and take care of.

The mid-semester break started off well with an interview with a media advertising agency which turned out better than expected. Who said people in advertising are bitches? Or is it too early for that comment maybe? Hmm. Drinks and red meat with good friends always come best after business, or rather, uni affairs. And at this rate, old flames will be what they’re meant to be – old and tucked under the bed, where all the dusty memories go.
Haven’t shared an outfit post in a while. Here’s how I tried to mix friday business casual with friday night out with the girls.

Are you a cat or dog person?
I realised that as we grow older, it seems harder to form connections with other people. Maybe that’s how the cat lady came about, it’s just easier to form a connection with a cat, or dog.
But then again, maybe it’s just me.
Some people might even say that I am cold. But hey, if you piss me off and don’t apologize or mend your ways I’m not gonna continue taking your shit. I mean, why bother? I have a handful of close friends, and at least I know if my world’s caving in, they’ll be the ones who will dig me out of the rubble.
I noticed that it’s so much easier to severe a connection than build one, which I don’t think is a surprising fact for anyone. It’s not like anyone can be your best friend, or that person you can count on right? As I grew older, the number of close friends I have started to dwindle. And it’s not that I didn’t try to make time for them, but instead, they don’t seem to have time for me anymore.
At least I tried my best. And of course, I have Brandy. Maybe I’ll get another dog, the Martini I always wanted.

But can I kiss you again?
Hello this is Shiro, hikari’s 7 week old Japanese Spitz. He is the cutest white furball who sleeps like a dead log!

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
It’s been a week of many changes. 2009 officially sucks. It can die and go to hell.
My cousin came for 10 days and went. How quick 10 days passed. I think Brandy will miss her a lot. She’s such an animal person. My cousin that is, not Brandy.
I brought my cousin to so many chocolate places. San Churro was one of the places we tried out together – milk chocolate and hot churros are TO DIE FOR.
Visited Dali’s exhibition with a couple of girlfriends. Exhibition was absolutely AH-mazing! Day out with the girls absolutely fun and just what I needed.
Over the week, I have also decided to further my study, and have just sent in my application for Master of Advertising at RMIT University. Jaclyn, please do not freak out. I’m still quite blasé about whether I get accepted or not. In the meantime, I’m happy just hanging around the house in my pajamas since work at Pearson ended. Workdays without work is better than having the weekend off after a long week of work.
I need a haircut. I might dye it jet black. I might pierce my tongue this week. I might go on a couple of dates too. I might do a lot of things. I like change, most of the time.
Why is the gingerbread man still smiling? I need to learn from him.

Chet Baker makes everything ok
Sundays without work are the best. Sleep ins. Baking. And the dysfunctional family. Tried the new double choc cappuccino cake recipe today. Little cakes are for Pei who’s turning a year older tomorrow. For her birthday pressie this year, I guess I’m giving her diabetes.
This is my dad and Brandy, fresh from their afternoon naps, and ready for a cup of tea and cake.
I love afternoon teas with the family.

That’s not a word!
Ahh, one of the few precious long weekends for us aussies. This time around was the Queen’s Birthday public hols. Had a few friends over for lunch/aft tea and board games. Mom made her famous curry puffs, chicken wings and coleslaw. I made bruschetta and tried out a new recipe – white chocolate macadamia nut muffins. It was a 3 step super easy recipe which turned out soooo gooood!
I did take pics of the food but they were crap so only this one of the scrabble board. How was your long weekend?
