You know it’s true…

…I’d rather spend my money on shoes.

And old acquaintance rang me up recently, haven’t spoken to him in years. After the conversation, I remembered why!

Him: How have you been? Are you still in NZ? (he’s called my Malaysian mobile mind you)
Me: No, I’m in KL, you just rang my Maxis dude
Him: Oh yeah! (laughs)
Me: I’m OK lah, working now, in media, you?
Him: I just got a promotion, I’m the youngest partner in my law firm
Me: I never realised you were a lawyer
Him: Yeah, and I’m getting paid 120 grand a year!
Me: Oh, that’s great, good for you (full concentration back on the magazine cover I’m working on)

[boring bit where he goes on about himself for two minutes]

Him: Want to have dinner next Friday?
Me: Oh, I’m really busy, end of the year and all that, I’ll let you know lah
Him: Okay. Let’s go to Third Floor, long time never go already. You can afford that place right? (WTF? What kind of statement is that, you ask me to go out with you AND pay, Third Floor or otherwise? You sure you’re Mr. 120kp.a.?)
Me: Third Floor is so overrated lah, seriously, I’d rather spend my money on shoes. I have to get back to work, catch up with you soon, bye.
Him: Okay babe, I will call you next week.

If he ever calls me I am going to feign amnesia.

It’s okay with the shopping bags though, mom

My right wrist has been hurting for the past three months. Goes a bit numb after a couple of hours on the mouse and there is progressive muscle strain all the way up to my forearm. Currently feels bruised.. suspected carpal tunnel syndrome. Mom’s been telling me that I literally spend half my day with my right hand on a mouse, even when I get home from work. Sadly, it’s true, but for as long as I can remember when I wake up I have to ‘crack’ my wrist otherwise it feels funny, so it could also be an inflamed joint or ligament because I haven’t cracked it recently. Been meaning to get it checked out but have been procrastinating.. I guess I should make it a point to get it sorted before Christmas.. urgh.

Absolutely love this picture Muna took of me in front of the LV store window in Hong Kong…

The lights bathed the street in a lush gold hue, and after staring at the light for a bit, everything turned a lovely tint of blue.
