1. Shopping
Thank you so much for all the well wishes extended to me from my faithful readers on my new job... I was overwhelmed with the comments as well as emails... I'm so glad, now that I have found a happier place to work... and sure is, proud of myself... and do my very best in my new position.
Since I will be a Personal Banker at XXXXX XXXXX Bank (sorry, can't reveal the bank's name but it's one of the most well-established and recognized financial institution in USA... no, it's not Bank of America)... I'm required to adhere to their dress code.
Dress/Suit Pants + Jacket + Hose (a must)
I hate pantyhose... never liked it and never will... but what to do...
Anyway, I have been out shopping for jackets in the past two weeks... and found 3 that I like.
Like the style - goes well with pants... but hate the shoulder pads... took them off.
Love the color... I believe I paid $19.98 for it.
This is the cheapest @ $14.98....
All from Burlington Coat Factory.

2. Turban
Nah... Turban headdress isn't one of the dress code at my new job....
but I think this young girl inherited my good habit....
of using a bath towel as turban to dry my super looooooooong hair after shower.
Isn't she a cutie pie..???

3. Creme de la Mer craze
Once again... my beloved sister in Hong Kong called and asked for a favor....
La Mer is having sale.... and this set of Creme de la Mer aka Miracle Broth (one large and one small jar) set herself a $250 US Dollar....
The small little samples on top left are free gifts.... :D
She wanted 3 sets.... so that's $750 + tax....
That should last her for a year... but I ain't gonna pay $750 for some face cream... Too expensive!

4. Little Red Dot Kitchen
What in the world is Little Red Dot Kitchen...???
It's an online store selling Pork Jerky aka Bak Kwa based in Bay Area, California....
I stumbled upon someone's blog the other day and found the website...
They're home-made and delicious.... almost like the famous Wo Lai Ye Bak Kwa in Malaysia.
They are a little expensive, in my humble opinion...
2 packs (1/4 lbs each) = $12.45 + shipping = $17.40
Above picture is single pack - about 3 medium slices... so, that's like $2.00++ for 1 slice. **gulp gulp**

I'm not gonna say anything on the picture below.... nor am I looking forward to that... **haih**
CatCat... the scariest moment has yet to come...!!!!

Arina,
Nampak gayanya, Arina dah upgrade from being silent reader to one of my active and faithful reader, eh..?? The green shade jacket is indeed one of my favourite... As a matter of fact, I'm going to wear the jacket to my Banker's Meeting tomorrow... hehe.

Dawn,
You and I both, super hate the shoulder pads... never a big fan.
The Bak Kwa was very good. Can almost tell it's made from good quality meat and loved the smoky flavour. Nom nom nom nom.
