Zen-ning

Guess where I went during lunch break??? Guess... Guess..... I went to Crest Moment!!! Last month, GoShop had a contest where they offer Crest Moment voucher and my sister was lucky and won the contest. Apparently one of my colleagues get lucky too. The voucher is for a Shiatsu Body massage and hand treatment or Foot reflexology and hand treatment. Unfortunately my colleague couldn't go today (the last day is today!), so she gave it to me rather than letting it go to waste.

I reached Crest Moment, which is located at Warisan Square around 12.50pm. I went straight in, and gave them my voucher. The staff there welcomed me with a cup of hot tea. I think it might me chamomile tea, a good tea for relaxation. She then asked me whether I would mind having a male therapist attending me. I then said it was ok, since I would be fully clothed during the massage.

He then showed me the spa room. It smells like orangy-musky thing.. Maybe it's ylang-ylang or rosemary (isn't that a herb for cooking?) or something else. But it was definitely awakening. They had a relaxation song at the background, which you would only listen if you have insomnia.. I then laid down on my stomach, and my body was covered with towels (hey, I was fully clothed yea!). The therapist then gave his shiatsu massage, which he pressed and massage the pressure points of my body. It wasn't as relaxing as traditional body massage, but maybe with the dim surrounding, smell of aromatherapy and the touch of healing, I was in zen right-away. I think at one point I almost fell asleep during the massage.

After he was done with the massage, then he proceed with the Hydro Hand Therapy. I had no idea what's for, I guess to make my hands smoother from all the housework and cooking (yea, right!) I've done. He massaged my hand with some kind of oil, and then I had to dip my hands in warm wax, then wore moisturizing gloves. It lasted for 10 minutes, and in the meantime he massaged my scalp. I think it was during this time I fell asleep, until he said "Miss, the treatment is done". Awhh... I wish it lasted for a little while longer....

It was a bliss to get away from the noises, bright computer screen and work even though it lasted for an hour only. Women love being pampered. Pls pamper us like princesses ;)

post-raya

Burrrrpp... ate too much food during raya. Almost every day I went to open house or my mum would cook some raya food at home. I bet if I lost 2 kgs in fasting month, I've gained it all back with some extra kgsss...

I've started working yesterday, and oh boy how I love school holidays and the post-holiday. I'm assuming a lot of people still on leave, since it only takes me 40 minutes to reach work today (usually it could reach 1 hr++)... Even tho I'm at the office, my heart is still at home, sleeping and resting, and holidaying...

On another note... I'm on a very-slow-narrowband which drives me crazy. Here are the things I hate, slow internet (darn!), slow driver on the right lane, stupid mini bus drivers who stop without signals and... Because the internet is kinda slow, I'm subscribing to google readers for my blogs! Now I only go to one site to check out updates from fellow bloggers.

Eghk. work is depressing. I'm gonna go shopping in 10 minutes (yeyy)..

Later peeps... Enjoy all the rendangs and ketupat while it lasts.. But don't worry raya qurban is two months away !!!

Selamat Hari Raya

Tonight is my official start of Raya Holiday, I will be taking days off until Wednesday next week. So in total I'll be taking 4 days of leave for Raya.

Selamat Hari Raya everybody n maaf zahir batin!

Honesty the best policy?

Is honesty the best policy? It depends, sometimes it could be no... Some things are best kept to yourselves for few reasons. One of them is to make the other person feels better. Well, technically you're not really lying if you don't say it, right? Although, I think people call that lying by omission. So that said, certain things are best left unspoken. You will feel better, other people feel better, plus, saying it out loud makes things more real than they are.

monday talk...

I'm trying to imagine on how one could hate another so much... So what do you do? Not talk to that person ever? Can one find closure by doing that? Will one get peace from pretending that person does not exist? Or maybe if you hate someone so much you should spread terrible rumors??? My theory is maybe hate comes from frustration and anger... I heard people say that women forgive but never forget? I guess it's true. Not forgiving is a way of punishing a person. If it were me, maybe I'll feel guilty for 3 months after gazillion of apologizing, but after that, I guess I won't ever bother to care. That's what I say now, but if it does happen, who knows...

On another note,Raya is less than one week away. Unlike last year, this year I've decided to take extra off-days just to be at home and eat high-cal cookies and cakes. Lucky for Lana, she can eat whatever she wants!!! I heard (actually I watched it on channel E!) that BF alone burns 500 calories! That's like 1.5 hours of running!!!

Happy Raya to Mel who will be spending raya abroad again this year! p/s: Please buy me those yummy chocolate covered pretzels.

What I'm writing might be incoherent, this is what happened when you write your blog at 4.30pm in Ramadhan month ;)

tv-talk: I am investing my time on new tv shows: private practice, pushing daisies, gossip girl, and dirty sexy money. How come in tv, they always seem to have a solution at the end of each show?

What is your monday like?
