Of earring trees 'n such
I bought this earring tree in Suan Lum night market during my trip to Bangkok last week and I really like it very, very much. It really organizes all my earrings very well. No more mess of earrings on my shelf top or digging through my chest of mini drawers looking for the elusive matching pair to my earring when I'm in a rush to go to work or go out!
Hangs many, many pairs of earrings, you can even hang necklaces...Makes a pretty good Christmas gift for a girl with a penchant for accessories I'd think and with only 28 days left to Christmas, better start shopping for those gifts now! *hint hint* Anyway, I've seen it sold in KL before so just ask me if you'd like to know where to get it in KL! :)

I went swimming on Sunday night and did about 50 laps in my condo's not-so-large pool. As I was sitting catching my breath in the shallow end of the pool, one of the other swimmers, a guy whom I estimate to be in his 30s, came up to me and said, "Is that all? You're stopping now? How about 5 more laps?" Then he added, "You swim very well!!"
Hahaha...Was that a pick-up line? Hmm, can't be 100% sure since it was quite dark at the pool but he didn't particularly strike me as drop dead gorgeous plus the fact that I was clad only in my, admittedly modest, Speedo one piece...So I just said a demure "Thank you, but I'm gonna rest a bit more!" and left it at that. Seriously girls, what would you have said?!

I got a migraine attack yesterday while driving to work, I think it was the sunlight that triggered it because I forgot to take my sunglasses out from my travel bag or perhaps the fact that I jumped out of bed that morning in a real hurry! I've never had it before though. The attack started with spots of light dancing in my eyes- the feeling was as if I had just stepped out from a dark room into dazzling bright sunlight. Initially I thought it was the glare from the sunlight but in retrospect I realized that the morning wasn't a particularly sunny one. In fact, it was fairly cloudy. I somehow managed to drive the remaining 20 km to work where the nausea hit me and did not subside with the two Panadols (the only medicine I had with me) I popped. Overall, the attack lasted about 3 hours and left me with a residual throbbing at the back of my neck. Thankfully, I think the migraine was a mild one! My heart goes out to all migraine sufferers out there. IT'S SO NOT FUN. Nothing like first-hand experience to make you more empathetic, eh?
