Mad about Agatha

3 Agatha Christie books read this past week... I'm on a roll..
Started last last weekend when me and my boy were on a date *yee haw*, and we were in the area, so I said I wanna stop by Kinokuniya in Senayan.
I wanted to buy some new stuffs to read, been reading too many mangas lately, it isn't healthy heh heh..

I browsed through the novel section, almost bought me a Jodi Picoult book. I texted my sis asking if she already owns that title, because I don't want to buy a double.. as I was waiting for her reply, I browsed through the crime/thriller section, and ended up buying 2 Agatha Christie's Poirot Novels: The Clocks and Third Girl. And 1 James Peterson's "The Quickie" just because it sounded vulgar ha ha...
Completely forgot about Jodi Picoult as I walkted to the cashier, my sister never replied my text either. Went home and started reading..

Then on the next day I browsed through imported 2nd hand books, where they're a good deal cheaper than the new ones... I bought 3 of them.. I just can't seem to stop reading AND buying.. I ended up ordering 6 more books just today!

I haven't picked up the James Peterson's book, no mood :P

Random Kindness #1

Suddenly I decided to start posting about sweet/nice things my boyfriend does for me. Without this method I don't think I'd be able to remember everything.. So better one by one starting from now :-D

,,If I drive home alone (noon midnight whenever), he always checks on me, whether I've arrived safely.. <3,,

Rather than only remembering his negative points (which I can point out most of them easily).. :-)

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

All this time, I always associate Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) with being clean and neat freak.. even though it's not really the definition of OCD, but just like we like to use the word "autistic" to someone who's fixated to their Blackberry, we oftentime use the word Obsessive-Compulsive to a person who's meticulous, or perfectionist, and most of the time clean- and neat-freak. Wikipedia says that those persons might not have OCD, but OCPD instead (Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder)

What's the difference? ha ha...

Anywho, I began drawing my own conclussion, that one could be called OCD or OCPD if s/he has a fixation or obsession about anything, not only cleanliness and neatness.. For example, I recently diagnosed myself as one, because I can't stand unpunctuality. I hate waiting to death, even if it's only 5 - 10 minutes off from the original plan, and I could go on rampage because of that.

It may sound like a mere justification of my own behavior (he he), but the more I think of it, the more it sounds just right. Because, even though I know for a fact that I'm a person who can be calm at one time, and suddenly snap the next time due to a small annoying matter (just ask my bf :P) But nothing irritates me MORE than unpunctuality, and not-sticking to the plan. Which is why I think I have an OCD of specifically this..

But now that I've read my own words... could it be possible that I also suffer from manic-depressive disorder (or Bipolar disorder)...

Maybe I should go see a shrink... o.O,,

My conversation with HSBC customer service

Me : I would like to request free annual fee for next year
Her : Sorry we have no such program at this moment
Me: OK, then I would like to cancel my credit card
Her: Ok, please wait a moment, we will assist you in a moment
........
Her: Mam, we can cancel your annual fee if you agree to activate your card protection program with us
Me: Mmm no, I don't want that
Her: Ok then, if not, we have a program where you use your credit card 3 times in 2 weeks, for any amount, then we will cancel your annual fee
Me: 2 weeks?? I'm not even sure I'm going shopping in these 2 weeks. Just cancel my credit card.
Her: Ok, we will cancel your annual fee.
Me: ...........

A waste of phone minutes...

BB Cream reviewed!

From Left to Right:
1. Missha watery BB Cream SPF 27 PAA++
Supposedly good for dry skin (which I have), leaves cooling effect, no rash, light liquidy. So far that's true, except it doesn't really give the skin the glow a bb cream should do.. It has medium coverage, no dewy glow :-(
2. Dodo Club BB Cream SPF 16 (?)
Best coverage, I use this as an alternative of using a foundation when I need to use one. But tends to make skin dryer due to its thicker composition. But it makes skin looks brighter, sometimes to bright so I have to blend well.
3. Faceshop blemish balm
Sadly no SPF, so I have to (when I'm not too lazy) apply SPF first and THEN the bb cream. But it's very light, doesn't dry up the skin too much, and it does gives a dewy shiny bright looking skin. If only this one has SPF, I'd vote this as the best bb cream. The coverage is medium.
