Marvelous Monday!


Tra la la.. la la la... ding dong tra la la....

Awww mannnn I'm feelin so good right now. While enjoying my absolutely healthy bfast smoothie, the postman came with a package for me!! :)

Beauty products! Oh, which girl don't twirl at that.
I've got one whole box full of facial masks (from Aus and Taiwan)(and yes, I'm almost broke)and I just know how I'm gonna spend my whole afternoon today - taking pics of course! Those beautiful packagings.... wondering if it'll break my heart ripping off those packagings. Hmmmm.. shall see tonite, eh?

~ I'm marvelous, I'm marvelous, its marvelous... aww aww aww..~

I love shopping. I believe I was born to shop. I dream of shopping most of my waking hours. If something catches my eyes, the next thing ya know, I'll be Googling it and then drooling over it. Crave and crave and crave till I go home with it. Then GUILT seeps in... ouch!!!

I went to Borders today. My significant other did in on purpose! :P
So tempting me into it. I end up buying a few items:

- Cosmopolitan July 09 (UK Edition) -> my staple read hehe.
- Better Homes & Garden: Smoothies -> for the health freak in me.
- The Nearly Weds, by Jane Costello -> I love the cover, chick lit-ish.
- 10 Reasons Not To Fall in Love, by Linda Green -> the title was the culprit. I'm a sucker for lovey dovey reads.

See if I'm hardworking enuf to upload those pics.. Hehe may take a while though.
Planning to read tomorrow (yay! no work on a Monday!) if I don't end up doing imaginative house chores.

Ok, I'm off now to be with my Cosmo!

Laters!

Coffee, Anyone?

I was never a fan of coffee. The mere whiff of coffee could easily gives me headache.
I'd feel wuzzy and heavy headed. And if at work, I'd be silently cursing the poor soul who drinks it. (Uhh no offence; but when I feel hammered I can't help turning into a mean monster).

Just recently I've been dipping my feet into the Coffee World.. I'd take small sips here and there, and found myself feeling okay. Also, blame my aging body.. I now need at least 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep every night. Or the next day I'll be begging to go home 5 mins after I sat my butt down in the office.

And guess what? I had black coffee for bfast this morning. DB was giving me the "huh?" look... bitter yes. But I was mentally hoping my black cuppa would do me some good.. say..:

- Burn Calories: If coffee is consumed on an empty stomach first thing in the morning before a workout, it can boost endurance and prolong fatigue, which aids in fat loss. (REALLY?!?)

- It was said that drinking coffee regularly can also help prevent some forms of diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, liver and colon cancers.

- Coffee can prevent constipation (oh really now...)It is a powerful stimulant for peristalsis.

So enough said; I proceeded to buy myself 50 packs of black coffee, hahahha.
Dear God, pls don't turn me into a coffee addict... :)
