Handbag Biological Clock?

I just realised that when end of the year comes I would instinctively have this raging desire to get a new handbag. My current handbag was bought in November last year and the previous one in December 2008.  You see the pattern? It's like an alarm clock being biologically set in me. People have 'new baby biological clock' and I have 'new handbag biological clock'? Do you ladies have this too or is it just me? Anyway, to fulfill this raging desire, lately I have been surfing for new bags. And what do you know, those bags which I crave for would cost me more than an arm and a leg. I might even have to consider selling one or more of my non-vital organs. You see, the constraint now is moolah. What with the new house and other stuff. Thus, I'm not sure if I'll actually buy a bag this year. We'll just have to wait and see. If I do have extra moolah, then I might just wait till next year when the removal of import tax on handbags becomes affective. 

Oh well, for now I can just dream. So, if I had all the money in the world to spend on anything I want, these would be the bags I'd get. The list is in order of cheapest to most expensive. Anyone out there kind enough to buy one for me? I might consider giving you the rights to take any of my non-vital organs, if and when you require them.

(If my culculations are correct, 30% off the current price of the Sukey would be a saving of slightly more than RM 1000.)

Why Abang?

Dear blog,

First and foremost, thanks for taking me back. I love you!

Now that we have settled that, I'm writing to express my concern regarding my hubby. My Shah has had this feeling more than a year or maybe two years ago. He is unhappy and wants a change. Lately he has been constantly searching for 'a new one'. He started by eyeing the local scene, even to the extent of sending out 'love letters' to a few alluring 'eye candies'. But his letters has not been answered, well maybe they were busy sifting through letters from all the 'suitors'. So Shah is fed up and he has now moved on to the foreign scene. He says it is more alluring, many times more vibrant and tempting than the local scene. Thus, he is now contemplating 'separation' from the current so that he can pursue these vibrant and alluring foreign 'eye candies'. And what about me? Tell me what I should do dear blog.

Waiting anxiously for ur reply,
Anisa

P.S. You will need these keywords to make sense of my letter - 'a new one' = a new job, 'love letters' = CV. Well, I guess you can decipher the rest, right?

Bedtime Reading

Excerpt from my CV: 'Hobby: Reading'
Well, that was true up till 3 years ago. I used to read all the time, novels mostly. I would be lying in bed reading until the wee hours of the morning. That's the culprit to the deterioration of my eyesight. Anyway, I was no longer reading novels once Maisarah came. Well not unless I had bionic eyes that can make me read in the dark. And at that time I didn't know there were LED reading lights that shown as bright as day.

Things changed earlier this year when I got to know of eBooks and how my iPod could be used to read them. I was able to finish the first book of the Twilight Saga but when I moved on to the second book, my iPod was hijacked. By whom? Maisarah and her Barney shows of course. So, my reading hobby was shelfed again. But not now the reading habit is back thanks to Mobipocket Reader. I am back to reading eBooks on my phone. I've finished reading the Time Traveller's Wife and have started on P.S. I love You. So now I can read any where, any time without having to lug around thick novels with me.

If only I can download an e-version of the Ikea catalogue to be kept on my phone for me to look at any time, any where.

I Couldn't Keep Away

Dear blog,

How are you? I hope you are still there. The past few months being away from you had opened my eyes. I need you to express how I feel. My days away from you felt different. Just the days though, cause I've got Shah and Maisarah to tend to at nights. Anyway, without you I had no place to discuss nonsense or reflect on what has been done. I also had no one to share on the latest happenings in life. Well, not that life has been too happening but some occurances were rather interesting. During these past months there were times when I wanted to write to you but I thought you won't take me back. Today, however, I'm plucking the courage to write to you, hoping you will take me back. So, will you accept me?

Love,
Anisa

P.S. If you dont say anything then I take it that you take me back. Also, find attached the latest photo of Maisarah.

Hope for The Best

Hi. I started this blog on 22 June 2004. At that time, I wanted a relief from my PhD work and blogging seemed like a nice thing to try. But lately, I don't seem that I can't find the time to write down stuff in my blog. I won't wan't it to 'gather dust' so I will put a 'cover' on this blog and say this will be the last post. Sorry if any of my posts has ever caused any harm throughout the 6 years I blogged. I hope for the best to whomever is reading this and pray for the best for me and my family. Cherios and Tata! :)
