is it true?

Is it true that personal appearance is important ... as in the way you dress and the way you style your hair....etc?

A friend gave me her honest opinion and that it's in fact important ... actually I felt I am really lacking in 'this' department. These friends even offer to help me have a modest makeover (note the word modest).

Honestly I think I really need a appearance makeover ... I've been feeling sluggish all these while. I'll have to say that most of my office attire are 'auntish' ... I just don't know how to explain why I didn't take the effort to appear nicer (aka more presentable). To tell the truth, only 10-20% of my working attire are puchased by me...the rest are given by people who cannot stand my non-existent fashion sense I think.

Blame it on my wrong mentality that "it's what inside that counts" and that "I'm not willing to spend much on clothes" and that "I don't care about how others think of me...I'm me"
The above mentalities - I found out is very very outdated in today's context.
Only God knows how many times I may have missed opportunities because of my 'not-so-presentable' appearance.

I really have to buck up and improve on my appearance ... let's take May 2010 to begin this long overdue mission.
something came to my mind as I write
"Even people going to the next world would want to appear nice & presentable so why this person who's still living in this world would want to appear otherwise"
I must be crazy ... really really crazy

my little 'I dunno'

my little 'I dunno' ...
who don't know how much he meant to me
who don't know how much I love him
who don't know how much I've sacrifice just for him
yet who still make me smile from my heart often =)

NST new perspectives campaign

If you buy during a sale, are you saving or spending?

Is today yesterday's tomorrow or tomorrow's yesterday?

Is a zebra black with white stripes? Or white with black stripes?

I like this series of advertising ... something very creative and aptly used to highlight NST as newspapers which reports from different perspectives.

even the walls cannot escape now

of late, perhaps due to nesting instinct ... I've a project going on in my mind all the time...transforming my home a little by little (week by week) to a 'home sweet home'.
Don't get me wrong, my home is sweet but i believe there are more that can be done to make it sweeter.

Yup, I know it's not all about material things ... no?

But sometimes it's little little things (in other words cheap cheap things) that add the 'touch' and that 'sense of belonging'.

Ever since I'm a little girl, I have a 'dream home' ... oh, yes I'm a very very homely person (blame it on horroscope) although at times I don't seem to be one.

Now, I'm trying each day to get a little closer to my 'dream home' ... it's not a grand one with superb interior design. I just need a cozy, warm sanctuary and a place to call home....a place I'm most comfortable in, a place I can be with my loved ones most carefree'ly, a place where I belong to and a place where I can nurture & grow =)

yes, that's me =D

what about you? What's your home sweet home like? How do you want it to be? =)

and now, even the strongest walls cannot escape .... dunno whether I'll get scolding or not for sticking the wall? =p

I'm very happy ... I got all these 5 for RM10 (where to find?)
