Monday
it was just another upside-down day
seems like it is going to stay for real
for the
Little Miss Freelancer
L.M.F
well.. it actually stands for
Lazy M. F*cker according to the
HK hip-hop brand which popularizes
that song on Bruce Lee, “1127”
anyway…
woke up at 8:30 am
to review and send off a batch of work
done by 10 am to realize that
I actually promise to send by afternoon
but it’s good anyway to
prompt myself to wake up
and final review done in the morning is
usually of higher quality
compared to any other time of the day
okay.. yet
I got back to nap by 10:30 am
for almost an hour
can’t exactly fall asleep but
I just felt that I need a break
Wth!!
after lunch
got back to work
the NGO paper
was more challenging than
what I have expected as
it involved the legal aspects of
setting up a foreign funded NGO
therefore it’s basically an analysis of
the possible ways to get it established
but no worries
I was half way done
spent an hour doing and
after my nephew fell asleep
I actually went out with my sis
for a Monday shopping
had not done so for quite some time
like just the two of us
having the nephew with us
is simply just so impossible to shop
and I always ended up
baby sitting him or
entertaining him at arcade
once I was forced to ride the baby bike
as he was considered underage
yet he insisted to take a ride
that was just quite an epic
a good warm-up exercise
for the two of us
before Seoul
I was here at the malls like last night
with my dad
but it’s alright
coming with different persons
equals to different shops and segments
by the way
there isn’t that much choice anyway
not that we have any other
shopping district in town
one thing with my sister
patience is a great virtue
she could take a very long time
buying loads of things or
ended up buying nothing at all
and I came across these
pretty neat posters
at a home décor / gifts / toys/ etc store
which were kinda tempting but
let me just find the appropriate locations
before I can even decide to buy them
but seriously
these make really good gifts for
Christmas gift exchange too
ermm.. not that I have
any colleagues to conduct one
and the quality is pretty not bad
it’s canvas instead of paper poster
and we ended up at baby’s department
buying some gifts for a new-born
as I wandered off and bumped into these
roar.. I must get these!!
for my beloved Manager
has not seen her for like..
since last November I guess
but yet.. I know I have to get these for her
my sister was like
what??
wouldn’t you think of your
poor nephew at home and
you are getting these for your friend instead
alright alright
I will get a pair
lucky 27 then, just right in front
when the sale person asked me to
confirm the size
I was about to tell her size doesn’t matter
that’s my lucky number, by the way
so here’s the plan
when I bring home
if my beloved nephew happened to
like it and it fits nicely
this will be presented to him and
I will come back and grab another pair
for my manager, then
if he doesn’t
then this will go to Ms. Manager
as planned
we went round and round
had some dessert too
and made the wrong decision of
buying take-aways far too early
and it was another 2 hours
before we got home
my sis got the sweatshirts she wanted
this funny promo at Terranova
for sweaters, sweatshirts, sweatpants
anyway
I stopped her from buying
a hoodie dress from Uniqlo
it’s Snoopy X Peanuts 65th Anniversary
why was I doing that
because I was quite immunized I guess
Uniqlo has collaboration every single season
every single window displays at Vans
are based on this couple-look thingy
no it doesn’t hurt me that bad
but if I were to choose
I will have go for the men’s version
the Disney collection is all over the store
the backpacks are pretty neat
it is Cara X Kate Moss at MNG
and next door it’s Liu Wen
you know you are so deeply
intoxicated with someone that
you can actually stood at
the middle of a busy road to actually
snap her photo and
this is my second time doing so
right at this spot
the last stop was
quite a surprise, in fact
we bought a luggage
technically I talked my sister into
buying my preferred brand
she asked if I am bringing any luggage
I said no I am not
I never bring any
unless it’s a short-term stay-over
she said I am crazy
yet I managed to persuade her to
buy an American Tourister
which I kinda like
ever since I came across their TVC
years and years ago
not knowing the brand back then
I thought it was an airline ad, you see
and my policy is simple
when it comes to a variety of brands
go for the one which specializes
in the particular product
the promoter was kinda new
he wasn’t even promoting
so I was the one doing
the comparison and calculation
because yeah
I am gonna get my sis to
buy the brand I prefer
although I am not buying one
30% off..
which is quite a good deal for AT
some other brands may be
shouting for 50%, 70%
but no..
I am getting my sister to buy AT
she wanted red because
it’s striking
between the two
the other one claimed to have
maximum volume like 30% more
so we were actually comparing
how true is that
so she ended up buying it
the series actually comes in 3 colours
but red was the only one left here
and she decided to for the largest
the funny thing with luggage is
the price difference between
the M and L sized are usually not that much
as if they would really want you to up size
this blue is pretty neat, I know right
loots of the day
and looked like this little fellow
likes it and it fits him very well
that marks our third pair of sneakers
which means I am heading back tomorrow to
get another pair as gift
made to do this
with BBQ sauce from his BK
yeah I did work after I came back
started work at 8:00 pm
called it a day at 2:00 am
managed to finish one tough project
and proceeded to another one
which was much more easier
let’s see
8:30 – 10:00 am
12 noon – 1:30 pm
8:00 pm – 2:00 am
okay I did work
for 3+6 hours on a Monday
on top of the shopping spree
btw this is my first
marketing survey report of the year
I mean that’s way too late but
never too late to reignite
whatever within me
until then
good night
