Eat, shop and party sans credit card?!?

Thanks to my negligence, I temporarily misplaced my credit card and asked for a replacement. I have canceled the other card while I will be receiving my new replacement supplementary credit card from The Consultant. It is 5 days to my big shopping trip to Singapore and I am without a credit card! I hate carrying cash =_="

Temporary employment

It was tempting. Post-Siem Reap, I was called back to the ad agency to freelance. I semi-regretted the decision coming out of optional retirement, but who can blame a poor girl when she's just out there to make fast-and-easy money to acquire brand new MacBook? Between fasting, planning a wedding, working and teaching, I haven't had much time to breathe.

Bear in mind it has been quite a while since I worked with potentially nasty people. I found it necessary to call out some of my latent skills:
  • Dialing up the beeyatch mode and being a diva. Trust me, it's a necessary survival skill.
  • Using the more advance features of a photocopying machine.
I am pleased to report that Friday will be my last day of employment at the ad agency. I resume my days of leisure starting Saturday.
