Liking the Coach Kristin Collection

Something has caught my eye lately, and it's the Coach :: Kristin Collection of handbags!

Previously, Coach handbags were never in my radar of must-have items, mostly due to the fact that I didn't really like their signature logo that were plastered all over their canvas bags. If there was a design I liked, I never got it because it only came in the canvas material with the signature logo.

The Kristin Collection is different (at least to me)! I love how soft the leather looks, and the soft, feminine colors. The styles are very versatile as well. And although there are designs that bear the signature logo (it's great if you like the signature logo, it's just a personal preference), those in the plain leather look fantastic to me!

Here's another thing to add to my growing list of 'want' items... :)

Things that annoy me..

Don't you just hate it when some bird droppings fall onto your car window just few hours after you've sent it for a wash?

That happened to me yesterday. And although I know these are things you can't control, I just felt so annoyed! My car had only been clean and shiny for a few hours. If it happened the next day, I wouldn't have minded so much...but on the same day?

Just wanted to have a small rant on one of the things that annoy me...

I want to go to wonderland...

image source

Okay, I don't literally want to go there, but I absolutely can't wait to see the world that Tim Burton has created in his new film Alice In Wonderland!

I guess this is one of my most anticipated movies, especially since Tim Burton is working with one of his most frequent collaborators - Johnny Depp. The images look fantastically dark - this is nothing like the previous animated version! Wonderland (or Underland as it is called in this movie) is almost like another character in the movie, the way Tim Burton brings it to life.

I won't look up any more spoilers images or anything because I want to enjoy the movie when I'm watching it next week! Can't wait!

Another day, another month

The month of February just zoomed past. It is the shortest month of the year with only 28 days (29 on leap years). And this year, February seems even shorter with the Lunar New Year holidays. Time just seems to fly by when you're on vacation and not needing to worry about work.

Today is March 1st. And the beginning of a long two months before another holiday for us working folks here in Penang, Malaysia. Now that I'm working, I really look forward to the public holidays that we get each year. This year, there are no holidays in March and April. So that makes it 60 days before our next holiday on May 1st. That just seems so far away. But somehow, even when working, I know it will pass soon, and then I'll be enjoying my three-day weekend again.

Oh, how I wish to be studying again and getting those long breaks between semesters! If I could tell my studying-self back then one thing, it would be to cherish and enjoy those breaks. Cause in the working life, there are no such things. There are only public holidays observed several times throughout the year. But some is better then none, right?
