Counting down to Christmas: My Wish List!
Around this time every year, we'd all be looking forward to my favourite holiday- Christmas. The celebration of Christmas is popular everywhere though its origins are rooted deeply with the history of the church.
Most streets filled with colourful lights, malls compete to see who has the largest, most appealing Christmas decorations while we crack our brains for the long list of to-do things and xmas gifts for our loved ones.
(though I always end up liking everything I buy for friends and people that I always want to keep them for myself =P)
Taken from my recent trip to i-city, worth it or not? you'll find out ;)
In most celebrations, we (especially Malaysians) always relate them to food and gifts. Don't believe?
Chinese new year - Mandarin Oranges, cookies, good food, ang paos "red packets"
Hari Raya - Ketupat, lemang, rendang, satay, pulut, and all kinds of "nasi", "duit raya"
Deepavali - Chicken/Fish curry, alooghobi (potatoes), dhal, muruku, and yada yada
while Christmas, it's Turkey and presents!!!
Giving the needy, caring for the less fortunate and sharing the love. Another reason why I love Christmas is of course the presents and pampering hee! :)
What do I want this Christmas? I've never really sat down and pen down a to-buy-or-to-have-things. It's always been I see-I like-I buy sort of thing.
#1 Camera
You'd be surprised that though I attend events and what not, most pictures are taken by my blackberry. I have a Samsung camera (which battery always dies) so I gave up and rather not use it at all. I think it's time I spend on a good camera.
I'm thinking the Canon S95 or G12!
Both are pretty, and I've been thinking and thinking even earlier this year. But I ended up spending on my Bold 2 =P
#2 More make up colours
My make up has always been simple -eyeliner, blusher, curler, mascara and shades of brown. Yeah, I'm that boring because I have no other colours to experiment with. SO............I NEED MORE COLOURS!
and what is better than THIS!!
(check!)
I just got this palette and a couple of other stuff (brushes, curler, eyelash glue, etc.) from Lash Bar at Sunway Pyramid *happy*
Now I shall experiment, who wants to be my guinea pig? heheh
#3 Clutch/bag
Clutches are absolutely stunning when you pair them with a nice dress and killer heels. Sometimes, just the clutch alone is enough to accessorize your look so I want a nice looking clutch to fit my outfits.
Especially love the ones from Charles and Keith =)
and last but not least..
#4 Furniture to redesign my room or would be new place
I love window shopping at Ikea and looking at those pretty furniture makes me want to quickly get my own place so I can decorate my little crib with things that I like.
*plays dream a little dream*
There we go, my little Christmas wish list.
The thought of them already puts a smile on my face :)
