I am Thompson Boy

I must say that after an additional day of holiday (Friday), it feels really good. Weekends should be three instead of two days then everyone would probably rose on Monday feeling much better and happier instead of the usual grumpiness and complaints. I do have a standard answer to whenever being asked how my weekend was – it’s not long enough. Not that the additional day was eventful or anything like that, just catching up on extra rest and sleep. The whole week was spent preparing for the pitch work and among many other things – all work of course. Whenever I am given a day off, I will ensure that afternoon nap is in place. There’s just something reassuring and comforting about the thought of going to bed with the sun blazing in the sky/outside while your room is cool and shady, it’s what dreams are made of. It is probably the reason why I am so in love with the thoughts and memory of beachside holiday escapade. It’s not so much the destination or anything like that that matters but

It is very funny how sometimes when you least think about certain things, those were the things that sort of link everything together – creating a theme if you may for the events that follow for the whole week. I have to admit that while I was painfully aware that my dear o’ blog have been abandoned for while, there was so many things in my mind that constructing something of a sentence becomes a chore. As the week comes to an end and another new set unveils, I can sit down, retreat in the comfort of my room and jot all the little details and thoughts down. It is abit tiring to just blame everything on work as work as goes, there’s always plenty of them and they will never end. I was going through the usual amount of work, actually a little more this week since we have been brief on the launch of a new product that will be a pitch against another competitor. Another factor that my team is painfully aware of – we are not bringing enough goods to the table. All the accounts are either n

OMG I love the music/SFX that they use for the ad and like hello, Twin Tower! Yes, people we are all born to shine. LG Shine will be heading our shores next month.

Stress Of late, I have been hearing complaints from my sisters about the level of stress from their work and quite frankly I can relate to them. Having been there and still doing that, I am amazed how far I have come. I used to be stressed out from everything at work. I think one of the reason is because of ex boss is always breathing down my neck. It's not exactly a bad thing because that keeps us on our toes and extremely careful with our handlings esp when you deal with deadline that is yesterday and things with changes and happens fast. That contributed to alot of late nights and lack of sleep worrying over this and that details. When you are in the business of dealing and depending on others, you have no choice but worry. Worried if everyone is doing their part, worried if they are dellivering from internal (art directors, copywriters, traffic and production) to external (suppliers, events management and etc). During my first few weeks at a better agency, I was even more stres

Well, scroll on if you are bloody sick of Coach this and that because look at this beauty, like OMG! Isn't it a beauty? Now if only it comes with a free male model. But then everyone can thinspire to be good looking, don't we?

After much discussion and heartache, I know there's light after the long and dark tunnel. Cookie has given his consent and my sister reminded me that a cousin of mine would be making her way to New York next week. So what's next? Buy! buy! buy! After all, no matter how cheap it is in this or that country, all the prices is nothing compared to the US of A. I am like a child waiting and all anxious about Christmas morning. I couldn't believe the rock bottom prices that I will pay for such fabulous merchandise. I have settled and reviewed my finances and have decided on a few loots. Before anyone start rolling their eyes away, Cookie reminded me that the only reason why we are pledging to go overseas is to bargain hunt and since the best price that I will get is from the states, it makes sense to buy it now that my cousin will be there. I am much excite. There's so many things that I want esp that large tote but it's USD400!!! Breath. Breath. Breath. Tote is ubber fabu

I just called Coach in KLCC and they told me that the fabulous skinny is NOT in stock. FUCK EM! and will only available at their next shipment. Guess whats the selling price here in KL? Fucking RM500-700. That's what I paid for this small sling bag ok!!! What a fucking ripoff. Bangkok trip, anyone?

You know once in a blue moon, no matter how much a cynical that you are – love happens. Just that I never thought that it would happen to me so soon. It’s not just any love, it’s love at first sight. I have always been searching for it and I am still gobsmacked that I have finally it. I went to bed thinking about it and dreamt away. Something so beautiful and so precious – all in my hand. Sayang, I love you too. Who wouldn’t love this FABULOUS (all caps ok) Hamptons (very posh indeed) Weekend Scribble Mini Skinny. It’s called ‘skinny’ for fuck sake, who wouldn’t love it? Look at the beautiful multicolor logo in scribble style, it is pratically an art piece. I have been looking for a small bag for my coins and card and this is it. I so need to own it. Check out the description: HAMPTONS WEEKEND SCRIBBLE MINI SKINNY You can toss this versatile piece into your favorite handbag or carry it as a small clutch. This season’s new Scribble Pattern makes it stand out in a crowd. # Outside credit

There was a time when my colleagues were gossiping over this silly show called What Woman Wants during lunch and since I rarely catch free to air stations’ show, I didn’t have much to say. But that did not stop me from knowing the trend of so-called reality shows that have been hitting our local production – you have everything from talent *cough*cough* shows to home makeover and now love and sex. I did however managed to stir some conversation by asking – are those guys what real women want? In union they all said no. I saw the two finalist which was featured on a newspaper article, didn’t bother to read because I knew at once that they are not what REAL women want. I have always believe that most women are contented to find someone whom they can rely on, someone to protect them even though they don’t really need the protection, someone they can talk to and someone that will lie when asked if their ass looked big in this or that jeans. It was that simple. But of late, I realized there

Friday ended really well for me even though the good news only meant more work and more headache to come. I have finally sold a proposal and while that is a relief for me, the real start is about to start especially when it comes to execution. Then there’s the award submission letter which I managed to get my client to approve – that bloody thing better win something if not make it into the finalist. Seems like the promotion is not too far from horizon now that I have managed to nail a few things down. A win at the Cannes will be great but that’s just a tall order but who knows? Anyway, since I am in a good mood and all, I have decided to indulge myself with food and also just lounging around practically doing nothing. I would probably need to plan and chart out the whole thing for the execution of my proposal tomorrow. But that’s tomorrow. Today is still here to enjoy. Oh and Disney channel just shown The Little Mermaid and me and my sister used to loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee that movie

Lately, I admit that besides doing nothing much at work, I have been preoccupied with something – Yahoo! Answers. I would have thought of that, years ago when I search and toiled for answers to my never ending online question. What on earth was codec, how do one go around coding html and etc etc. Gone are the days when you need to beg and email someone for help and information only to find them ignoring you or the email address is no longer valid. All you can do is go on desperate search in hope that you will find the solutions. Some of the questions are quite typical and some are downright silly. I quite enjoy reading questions posed by students looking for answers to their assignments and while I can understand where they are coming from, I can’t help finding them very silly – questions like is outdoor advertising the way of the future and replacing TV and Print and etc etc. Then there are some enquiries on Malaysia or in the Fashion and accessories section which prove to be just as

Midnight snacks tastes good and being single means happiness Went out for a spin on Friday night, I was still hungry even though I downed a whole plate of rice a couple of hours earlier and already out and about looking for food. There’s this stall that sells my favorite Sarawak noodles and I got some ‘siew mai’ as well. It feels good to be out on your own, doing what you really want, indulging, spending your hard earned cash and ultimately feel happy about it. And it cost next to nothing to have your tummy filled. That’s really life simple pleasures. If only I can find a way to bottle that feeling of the moment and use it against those moments of depression and unhappiness. Such a waste of time to dwell on unhappy things. I went to bed right after eating. Yes. Tummy full. No routine sit-ups. To bed. Heaven. I can’t bloody afford a book that cost RM50 Something which I’ve found out when I was out with Cookie in Ikano over on Saturday. We were there to see what two persons can do with 4
