Inflation Really Did Kicked In

I was browsing through some designer's site like LV and Gucci and was really shocked to find the prices of their products had increased 10%-15%.

Louis Vuitton

If my memory did not fail me, the increase in price £550 --> £620

£280 --> £320 --> £390
Gucci
£280 --> £333

£1280 --> £1400

Disclaimer: The cheaper prices stated are based from what I had remembered. It does not really mean the real actual price before it increases. This is just an approximate.
*****************************************************************************
I think I need to really earn more money and get my hands on them before they increase their prices to an unreachable amount for common peasants like me.
*****************************************************************************
But why is my salary not increasing concurrently??? Still the same T____T

Someone told me that my blog posts are getting boring.... Is it??

Sushi Making

1st of all, prepare all ingredients (to your likings) in strips form.... That invovles lots of cutting and washing.... remember to cook all of them before putting them into the sushi.


oppsss.... not so stripsy here.... but nevermind...


Egg with Jap mayo.

Corns with normal mayo.

Seaweeds (Nori)

Rice with sushi vinegar and salt and sugar. The rice I'm using here is just normal rice. I'm lazy to buy the Jap rice -__-

Bamboo mat, sharp knife and water.

Remember to wet the knife before cutting the sushi as this could prevent the rice from sticking to the knife and making a total mess out of it.

Maki sushi.

Hand-held sushi (forgot its Jap name).

After spending 2 hours, here's my "sweat and blood"
And they tasted as good as I could imagine them to be.
Tiring day as tons of people thronged KFC and we were serving customers non-stop.

FFK

FFK, or rather in cantonese "Fong Fei Kei", or rather chinese "Fang Ge Zi", or rather english "backout-at-the-last-minute" is an act that I can't really tolerate much, especially at the very last minute.

To me, if someone has to cancel something, please don't do it at the very last minute when he/she has the entire day to inform me.

I'm not trying to implement who did this to me, but in general, I'm very much annoyed by this unconsiderate action as I appreciate time and promises, and the promise to meet each other up is rather important to me.

If someone couldn't keep it and have to FFK at the very last minute, please, think of the person who waited. If someone needs to FFK, please do it at least 2-3 hours before so that the waiting end will not waste precious time.

OK, I give up. I'm indeed implying to someone in this post and I know that he might read this post. Initially, I'm fuming. But after a long walk back to my house, I'd cooled down.

I'm not Xiaxue, righteously speaking out my mind and expressing myself how clearly I'm upset with the whole situation. I'm not gonna swear or curse as we are still friends. But I'm really gonna think twice if there is any meet up or so. So just leave it as that.

What's your record of someone FFK you at the last minute??

Me?? 8 minutes before the meeting and after walking 1.5km

Movies I Wanna Catch






I don't think I need to label them as they are very clear what movies they belong to...
****************************************************************************
Walking around today, went to buy a light starter for our kitchen but it turns out ain't its problem, its the fluorescent light bulb itself, wtf. So waste of time and money. And now, have to wait till Monday to buy the bulb as tomorrow is Easter and the shops are close.
****************************************************************************
Anyway, went to the city to return my belt (wrong size, I mean, how could I have not check before I buy the L size, for a mo, I thought I'd slim down, wtf) and the mouse I bought for my birthday and got back £28.
****************************************************************************
Instead, landed with some shampoos and a black boot, £25. -__- I know, what's the point of returning them, right?? No money saved. Poor Yoong... Always spending on me.
*****************************************************************************
I'm not sure why, I've become a crybaby nowadays. Please tell me the cure.

Outfit For The Day


Top: Kookai, Jeans: Levi's, Shoes: Topshop, Necklace: Primark, Shades: Topshop, Camera: Canon

I think I'm growing fatter every minute. My face looks all swollen and I'm hoping that by massaging it everyday could help reduce the puffiness.

I was wondering whether do guys actually felt threatened and bullied when a gal wants them to accompany her shopping??
Do you prefer to spend more time alone or together with your beloved ones??
What is it like to be alone for 2 months??

Ways To Reconcile After A Fight

1. Get away from the source that makes me sad and breath deeply for 10 times, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale... Then only start the conversation calmly.

2. Revisit the moment when we were happy by browsing through photos or reminisce about the past.

3. Smile or force a laugh after a fight. That always helps.

4. Hugs and cuddles without other words. The situtation will definitely lighten up a lot.

5. Cry. The guys always gives in to tears... Hahaa **evil laugh**

6. Say sorry. Its the fundamental to all fight-subsiding-techniques.
