Christmas wishlist from Azorias

Dear Santa,

I may not be all good this year but trust me, I'm trying to be a better person than I was before. I curse less (verdict: lie, I cursed the slow drivers when I drove to work every morning), I respect others (verdict: true, I guess), I helped others (verdict: true), I tolerate more (verdict: lie, but I'm still trying). So, I think for Christmas this year, I deserve a little something. I won't be greedy, I promise.

All the items that I want are from Azorias. See, I save you the hassle already, no need to go to other shops/sites to get my desirable items. So, here comes the list:

Contract collar cheetah print sheer shirt

I fall in love with this top when I saw Joyce wore it. This will be the perfect work/play top. I can wear it for work and directly to lounge after office hour for a drinks or two.

Bow Georgette top with gold trimmings

The back details totally catch my eyes. This is will be the perfect top for a simple first date night. Not too casual, not too over the top either. From dinner date to movie date, this top is the perfect top.

Leopard print mermaid tail skirt

Again, another animal print item. Yup, I'm a bit obsessed with animal print. But the mermaid tail concept that grabs me. Been looking around for a skirt like this and Azorias caters my need. :) I already can imagine myself strutting in this skirt in a dinner party or girls night out.

Hot pink drapped tulip overlay skirt

A pink skirt! This is a must-have skirt. The bold color of pink no doubt can chase away my Monday blues. The thought of matching this skirt with my favorite top and heels can totally make my morning. No more grumpy me on a Monday morning, I promise.

Here's a close up picture of my pink tulip skirt because obviously 1 picture is not enough to justify my love towards this :)

Told you I'm not greedy. I was having a hard time to pick the items for my wishlist but I resist the urge to click everything for the wishlist (Another proof that I'm behaving :p) I'd noticed one thing tho, item no. 1,2 and 3 are all out of stock T_T So please grant me item no. 4, Santa ;)

Sincerely,

Hot pink drapped tulip overlay skirt lover.

The end

I don't really talk about my feeling and personal stuffs often. Normally, I just keep these things to myself, I found talking to myself is much more comforting than pouring it out to someone else ( I swear I'm not crazy, ok!). But sometimes, I just need to channel these emotions somewhere. I always thought of myself as a commitment freak, I got scared and back off when things started to get serious. Partly because I was hurt before.

Someone once told me I have a relatively short attention-span when it comes to relationship, none of my relationship last long. Truth is, I don't know what went wrong and we're better off without each other. Recently I walked out of my comfort zone, totally letting my guard down. It took a lot for me to get back out there and risk myself getting hurt again. Somehow, I just have to muster my guts and instill the believe that there's a guy whom are meant for me out there.

Everything was great in the beginning. I was smitten and totally got swept away. He really did a lot for me, from our first date and all the effort of commuting back and forth (we lived in different cities) just to see me. I should have seen this coming, when it was too good to be true, something bad is bound to happen in the end. In just one night, my relationship graph dropped much scarier than the stock market. I totally had no idea what was going on. I felt like I was being slapped hard on the face and stabbed directly to my heart.

Ending the relationship is the only way for us. The path ahead doesn't seem promising. The reason behind all the heartache is not something that I can change. It is not even an issue for me, or for anybody in the 21st century as the matter of fact. Well, I can't change my race, can't I? I wouldn't too if I could because I see nothing wrong in it. We all human, all the same, in and out (physically obviously).

Graduation day

Finally, a proper post about my graduation even tho it had past for more than a month. I didn't feel all the jitters or excitement until after I got my graduation robe and hat two days before the ceremony. I was totally clueless about what to wear for ceremony. I packed baju kurung, pant, blouse and heels but ended up only wearing the blouse.

My outfit:

Sheer white longsleeve blouse- Sungei Wang

White tube- Can't remember

Harem pant- ELLE

Bag- MANGO

Heels -Vincci

Initially I planned to wear my grey pant and heels from Summit. But when I was shopping at The Spring a day before the ceremony, I saw the bag from MANGO that I had been eyeing since my last trip to KL. Then it occurred to me that I haven't got myself anything for the graduation ( I had been shamelessly asked my family and friends for my graduation gifts :p)

So the bag will be a perfect gift for myself. Then when I put my outfit together in my mind, the grey pant did not match my black bag, thus I must get myself a black pant. When I was browsing in ELLE, the SA suggested some black pants for me to try on and I instantly fell in love with the harem pant. It is the most comfortable pant but I had a little problem with it during the graduation day. The clip above the zipper on the pant got loosed and almost fell off. Lucky I had safety pin with me and had to pinned my pant the whole day. Thank God, there was no wardrobe malfunction.

I also did not get to wear my 5 inches heels because I seriously could not walk in it. On the way from my hotel room to the parking lot, I almost tripped 3 times. Lucky I brought spare heels, so from 5 inches, I went down to 3 and a half inches.

Soulmates <3

We party together and graduate together :)

We organized a little graduation party on Friday night at our usual club, Check-In and it was great to be reunited with the mates on the dance floor. The club was packed with almost all the students from my Uni. Everywhere I turned, I saw some familiar faces.

Soulmates having a great time

A happy but tipsy me

Half of the group

Phew, this is a long post and a proper closure for my student life chapter. Growing up and finally leaving the student life feels so surreal for me. Feels like yesterday I was just registered for my University and now I'm a graduate. Damn, time flies and I miss my crazy-loving bunch of friends.

Pre Convocation

For our graduation, my friends and I decided to have an outdoor photo shoot just for fun. I mean, you don't always have the chance to strike a pose or two in your graduation robe and hat, right? So when one have the chance, one should camwhore kao kao ;p I almost missed the photo shoot because I took my robe and hat on the day itself, luckily my timing was right.

First destination, Reservoir Park, Kuching

Next stop, McDonald for lunch

Second destination, DBKS/ Cat Museum, Kuching

I had so much fun fooling around with my girls, reminded me back when I was in field trips with them. Being the enthusiastic plant students, we even went to Orchid Garden. Our main purpose for the visit, for camwhore. That's what we girls are best at.

These are just my pre concovation pictures. I have tons of during and after convocation pictures have yet to be edited. Shall continue in the next post! Bye.
