Pink shades died

There was this store called Primark at London, where everything was so freaking cheap there. Not just at Primark but just about every store in Europe. From Zara, to H&M, to Mango. For RM900 at London, I bought 5 shirts, 4 t-shirts, 2 pairs of pants, 5 pairs of shoes, 10 pairs of boxers, 15 pairs of socks, 2 belts, 1 tie and 3 sunglasses.

Those who know me will know that i've been wearing them pink shades for a while now, they're the most comfortable out of the 3 I bought, and of course, stands out the most. Have even worn them to client presentation! It's a conversation starter I tell you.

Until.....



Pink shades died. So sad.

Ascent - find out which fragrance suits you

Last Thursday, Estee Lauder had this launch event at Pavilion called Ascent for their perfumes. It wasn't a launch for any specific brand of fragrances, though they carry a bunch of brands like Aramis, Sean John, DKNY, Tommy Hilfiger, and more...



Apparently they invited a bunch of celebs there coz I heard people saying, ohh Carven Ong is here, ooh that designer is here, another designer is here. Really, everyone was looking designer-like (you know, skinny 3 quarter length pants, sneakers, with a tight shirt and you-know-they-took-3-hours-to-do hair. Yasmin Hani was there too, I think this is her coz Pinkstilettos was there and she pointed to this lady saying she was Yasmin Hani (apparently a big star, I have no idea)



well hope you can tell from her back. haha..

What I was more interested in though was the food,


No I'm kidding. I was there for the perfume. Michael Liew, the Brand GM gave an opening speech, explained what the Ascent event was all about.


Apparently, this Ascent event wasn't designed to push any specific brand of perfumes. It was designed to let you find out what perfume suited your lifestyle. In a very cool ipod touch way, (there were a few ipod touch's going around where they created an app to let you find out which perfume suited you based on the pictures you chose in different categories, I mean how freaking cool is that, personalization to the max) I had my personality tested through a series of pictures, and after making my selection from the pictures, I was finally judged as a "casual/seductive/sexy" person. From there I was given 3 choices of fragrance to smell-choose from. There was one that stood out way more than the other 2, and that happen to turn out to be Tommy Classic.


So i guess that's me. Tommy Hilfiger Classic, that points out the casual/seductive/sexy person in me. Wow.

All thanks to Ashley Wong, senior marketing exec of Estee Lauder who invited us (Michellezyenn, and Nicholaschay) to the event.


We finished off by having lunch with Pinkstilettos and her sister Schazwanyhameed who poured out the tragic story of her ex.

Oscar 1996 - 2010

Oscar has been with us for the last 14 years. Wanted to put his pic up here so at least there is a record of him or else i know it'll somehow be deleted from my phone. The last year saw him deteriorating like crazy and his last week alive had to be when my parents were away at Australia. They didn't have a chance to see him go.

We had Oscar given to us when I was in Form 1 as a puppy. He was so small he could squeeze through the front door and come into the house whenever he liked. Eventually he grew too big that only his head could fit in. He was an energetic dog, chasing motorcycles all the time, and going out and making lotsa babies with I don't know which bitch out there. Good life as a player. Maybe it's due to his good looks. (The son came out looking not as good, i bet the mom was like a fugly bitch. He may have the looks but he ain't got the taste).

Anyway, these are his pictures during his last few days.



He still looked good as ever but he was limping around non-stop, panting non-stop for 2 days, and not eating for 2 days. Fell inside the drain twice, and when I picked him up and cleaned him up he didn't even have energy to shake the water off. He had problems even standing up from a lying position already.

The last straw came when he couldn't even lick the food in even though I put it on his tongue. I had to shoot water into his mouth as he wasn't drinking too. His last night here, he was lying down and that's when I found out why he's been limping like crazy. There was an open wound on his paw and there were freaking maggots swimming inside. Must have been due to not letting us bathe him for the last few weeks. That sight made my mind up that was going back and forth on whether I should put him down and end the suffering. I knew if I didn't it would just be totally cruel to let him live like that.

The next morning, he was still limping around but finally lied down, and didn't even stand up to pee anymore. I took him in a towel, without putting up a struggle like he normally does, I carried him into the car, and drove down to the vet. It felt like a super long drive even though it was so near as I was hesitating along the way.

As soon as the vet saw Oscar, he said, he's really in bad shape and should go. Before the whole jab was even done, Oscar had already passed on.

I come home everyday now to an empty patio, where Oscar normally is. He had a good life.

Shasha's still with us.
