Little Dowager

I know.

The last few days had been quiet. It’s not that I was caught up in the rapture; instead I was prepping my move to my new space on the intarweb.

I had planned to migrate my contents over but alas, I decided not. A fresh start might be good. To let go of pain; to finally learnt my mistakes; to begin accepting myself for all my imperfections.

It signifies a new beginning of myself as a adult; hence the letting go of “little” from my alias.

Do pop over, do update your blogfeed/blogrolls. It’s a little bare at the moment but fret not, it’s still the familiar Dowagr.

Many thanks to the folks at Liquidblade for hosting my new humble little space.

It is not that you are not allowed to whine, but please do so with a touch of irony and self-deprecating humor (one excellent example: Cowboy Caleb). What do you expect us to do, coo-chee-coo you, empathise with you like we both experience the same abdominal pain every month?

I don’t know why, but whenever I read/hear about guys whining incessantly like they are the poorest little lamb in a big cruel society on their blogs, it just made them appear to be extremely petty and grudgeful. And I imagine them growing old into an angsty little old man angry witht the PAP, angry with the PTC, angry with the education system, but he’s all talk and no action. Kind of like the taxi driver we encounter the other day.
 

And it is so not cool to link up your series of unfortunate events in a single sentence cause seriously, no body wanna hear about that.

This is a little late.

Wish everyone who still read my humble blog, a very Merry Christmas.

Now run along and go compile your New Year Resolution for 2008. Better not make too many, lest you forget them in the course of twelve months.

Race Queen gone wrong.

Yes yes, I know, everyone thought most of the girls were mediocre.

But that’s not the point. Don’t you think their shoes were worst?!

Why bother with those not-here-not-there 2-3 inch “kitten heels”? Might as well go all the way and wear sky high 4-4.5inch strappy stilettos or platform pumps.

Woo hoo, I finally place an ad on my blog!

I’ve always wanted to join Nuffnang, unfortunately Missy does not have 20 unique visitors everyday. Some days I get 24, some days only 8.

That is until I discovered Adverlets.com. It doesn’t hurt to read some rather positive feedback about them on the blogosphere.

I doubt I will earn much, but nevermind, 50 dollar or 50cents, is still money earned at the end of the day.

In other news, I also added a Paypal donation button below my ad. Yes I’m selling out, if not how else am I going to support my ebay addiction dreams & ambition of being a successful designer in unfashion-conscious Singapore?!

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your Livejournal (or blog) along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what they’re listening to in absolute random order.

1. Buttons - Pussycat dolls
2. Crazy - Gnarls Barkley
3. Promiscuous girl - Nelly Furtado
4. Under pressure - Queen & David Bowie
5. As the world falls down - David Bowie
6. Public Affair - Jessica Simpsons
7. Ring My Bell - Anita Ward (hahaha)

Instructions: Name 10 of life simplest pleasure that you like most, than pick 10 people to the same. (In no order) 1. Hanging out late at night Do you know I love to stay out till late at night? Especially after work. But I must be doing one of my favourite activity - drinking, eating, laa kopi or shopping at Mustafa.

1. Sleeping in on my off days, in a cold and rainy morning. Who doesn’t like that?

2. Holding hands and kissing =)

3. Sitting in the passenger seat Don’t have to drive, don’t have to worry bout directions. Just bring me there.

4. Drawing/Sketching something so randomly and not even picking up the eraser once. I’m quite a perfectionist sometimes, so it feels really good to break out of that mentality and sketch without worry if a stroke is out of place.

5. Shopping. Nothing makes my day more than a good purchase. Especially if it a bag, a pair of shoes or anything with a battery life.

6. Receiving good smses from my favourite people.

7. Dancing and singing and grooving to music, with my crazy friends without a care in the world.

Hush hush. Keep this place between you and me.
