So imagine you're a busy girl with one thousand and one things to do??

At least I've managed to achieve a few things on a day that I'm supposed to be sick and in bed...Yes, indeed it's a working day, that's why workers are entitled to sick leaves! Because you do fall sick once in a while although you're physically well, you'll have to pretend you're not...you just have to force yourself to fall sick, be it mentally or physically. If not you'll have totally no time to run errands for yourself!

Done:
Finally got a PR visa label stuck on my passport
Applied for medicare card (although I swear not to ever speak to people by the name of Kristen ever again!)
Picked up a few things from Sportsgirl
Called Astrid
Arranged for a time to call Astrid
Called mom

More things to do:
Continue to respond to selection criteria (damn selection criteria!)
Deserted clean clothes waiting to be folded
More clothes waiting to be ironed
Freaking messy room needs urgent attention
Make up needs to be removed
Ear phones still missing
Tonight's dinner menu - plates and cutleries??
All jeans and winter clothings need a swim in the washing machine
Extra health cover(in case I break some parts of my body, I won't need a loan to fix it up!)
Vacuum cleaner is starving (Ages ago since I last sucked up dirt in the living room!)
Book for accommodation for Melbourne trip
Buy toothpaste or maybe I can try using bleach

Sigh! I really wish life could be simpler! Damn selection criteria! It's really sucking too much energy out of me!

I'm not actually doing anything, but I feel so uneasy and stressed up?!?!? What the efff is wrong with me?!??!?!

I think I need a break!

GOSH...Gosh, how long have I been gone?? I suddenly feel like I've somewhat dissapeared from the face of the Earth over the last few years. Work has been the craziest thing that has ever happened! I've been the crankiest pot boiling around and things seems to be spilling everywhere! Every little thing seems to be pulling my hair! When I try laying the sticks straight, they just somehow break the line! You know, I feel like I've not had a rising sun for the longest time...I miss springing off bed once the alarm goes off, stopping by the belcony for a what-a-lovely-day thought before rushing up the bathroom for a warm warm shower! Somehow you just know it when you'll have a fantastic all-good day! But these days, I not only snooze till my phone's battery runs flat, I drag myself along with my towel up to the bathroom and then scare myself by the refelction I see on the mirror, thinking "goodness, this girl looks terrible!" And when you begin to sense something like that, you'll smell danger just around the corner. It's days like that when you realise your favourite undies are still sitting in the laundry basket, your stockings have ladder running up and down more like snake-and-ladder (embarrassingggggggggg...*warning to all girls, please do not wear holey stockings coz if you get caught it'll be totally EMBARRASSINGGGGGGG!*), your clothes are not ironed, and to add to that, even mascara doesn't seem to behave! They clum up and swishy swoosh on your lids making you look like a freaking Cleo Patra! Oh NooooOOoOoOoooOoo!

Well, basically I've just enlightened you with my very routined boo boo days lately! Moral of the story: You just know it! You just know it when you'll have a boo boo day because...because even your toe nail won't behave!

Wondered where have I been?? (I'm out of the closet now...!) Anyway, last few weeks have a quite a roller coaster ride at work...Things have been happening at a pace which seems rather hard to keep up with...All in all, my workplace has been pretty dramatic and we were at a stage where we just had to be ready for whatever that's coming...One day, I get news of promotion, next day the company is shrinking, following day, company is buying another entity, and so on and so forth...Everytime I was called for a meeting, it would only make me cringe...not knowing what was going to happen. Anyway...I've decided what to do...not exactly an easy decision as I've been working with very very nice employers and colleagues...nevertheless, the most sensible thing to do at this stage, I guess is to leave and to move on...Sad, but life has to go on...The employers were so nice that upon receiving news that we're leaving, they actually contacted a recruitment officer to come and have a chat with us tomorrow, just to hopefully help us get our desired jobs as soon as possible. According to the GM, it's the least they can do as a token of appreciation...to me, it's really a bonus! *sigh* My first employers and they are really setting the standard too high for my next...*sigh* But anyway, I'm not discouraged, I see it as at least I've had a go with these nice people! =)

BLACKCURRENT...Purple glass beads and hand-painted teardrop beads. Ladylike and gentle...reminds me of olden Anne of Green Gables days...

MUSHIE...Another earth coloured creation! I seem to have a thing for earth coloured clothings and accessories lately! Could it be winter blues?? Anyway, Mushie is made of coffee coloured pearls look-alike, brown glass beads and fresh water pearl pieces. Slightly different wirework to extend the length and to give it a more "dangly" effect! Mushie is also a good match with Brownie! =)

BROWNIE...measures up to my waist. Combination of brown glass beads of different sizes. Can be worn as a long necklace, twirl it up and make it 2 layers, or even as a bracelet. Miss Versatile! =)
