Kiss and Slow Dance

Meredith: "I can't, I can't remember our last kiss. All I could think about was, "I'm going to die today and I can't remember our last kiss," which is pathetic. But the last time we were together and happy, I... want to be able remember that, and I can't Derek. I can't remember."

Derek: "It was a Thursday morning, you were wearing that ratty little "Dartmouth" T-shirt you look so good in, the one with the hole in the back of the neck. You'd just washed your hair and you smelled like some kind of... flower. I was running late for surgery. You said you were going to see me later, and you leaned to me, you put your hand on my chest and you kissed me. Soft. It was quick. Kind of like a habit. You know, like we'd do it everyday for the rest of our lives. And you went back to reading the newspaper and I went to work. That was the last time we kissed."

I can't remember my last kiss either and the last time i slow dance. All i know is that it's been a while.

Grown up gifts

When i was 6, all i wanted for Christmas was the Sailor Moon pen wand. Even though i'm their only daughter, my parents never spoiled me when it came to give my brothers and i a present. Nor did they believe it was a way to raise a child. So growing up, i never really got the things i want. I remember going back to school after the holidays and see all the girls in my grade with their pen and that all i got was a pair of mitten and a red winter boots. My mom made it worst when she tried to convince me that it looked the same as Sailor Moon's.

Now that i'm a bit older, i wouldn't mind having that pair of mitten and those red boots. As long as its cashmere and Marc Jacobs :P All in all, i've decided to work on my wish list this year. Theres a few goodies i can afford. But those who know me, knows that i always want the unaffordable ones. I can still wish for them though, right? Ahhh...the wonders of Christmas!

Dearest Anna Sui...

Why are you doing this to me? Why do you have to release those special boots when you know that a girl like myself would have to work her ass off to have them? When you know its almost the time to shop for the holidays? You are torturing me. But i can't hate you. I love you too much for that. Therefore i hope you would release more of the black suede ones in a size 8 at the end of the season. I can probably get my hands on them by then. Thank you. Peace, Love and Bubbletea! xoxo

P.S You're a genius

Freebie Five

What's the freebie five? According to Lainey's : "(...) a list of 5 'unattainables' you’d have permission to date/tap without consequence from your significant other should the opportunity arise. The key to the Freebie Five is fantasy, whatever turns your crank. My criteria, however, is also determined by celebrity. Two bit no-names, no matter how hot they are, don’t rank. Because while intelligence is optional, fame never is." Without further a due, my list consist of a neurosurgeon, a time traveler, a manwhore, a superhero and mr. perfect.

1)Patrick Dempsey aka McDreamy. A man who is charming, devilishly handsome and basically the kinda guy every girl goes to sleep dreaming about. Therefore, McDreamy. Meredith Grey couldn't have found a better nickname for him. It suits him SO well! He's the type of man you would want your parents to meet and know they're gonna love him. The uniform is an extra plus in my criteria ;)
The backdrop: It's mid November, a cloudy Sunday afternoon.
The scenario: Long conversations and a casual walk in the park. Coffee @ Starbucks afterwards. Later in the evening, we go movie renting and its either his place or mine with a good bottle of Chardonnay.
The conclusion: Anything can happen with a good bottle of Chardonnay :P

2) I admit i wasn't to fond of Eric Bana when i first saw him in 'The Other Boleyn Girl'. He did however caught my attention last summer in 'Troy'. I'm 5 years late, but the movie was good. Those who haven't seen it, two words: pecks and armors! Other than Brad and Orlando, he was really decent looking in the movie. And than came 'The Time Traveler's Wife'. O.M.G.
The backdrop: A bookstore with lots of old books.
The scenario: We both would probably fall upon a same book we were looking for. Short convo turns into a long one. Most likely we share common interest.
The conclusion: We would know each other as the perfect 'stranger' from the bookstore at first. The second time we meet, numbers are exchanged, which leads to the rest of the story.

3) Bradley Cooper. Manwhore. A girls always fantasize for a fling with the badboy heartbreaker. No matter how many times you convince yourself that maybe, MAYBE you could be the one that can change him. Chances are, it won't work because you see, they tend to go for the stubborn, hard-to-get ones. They want a girl who also knows how to play the game and that are naive looking. Which is why i think Renée Zellweger and him are prefect together right now.
The backdrop: A bar
The scenario: A free drink. Some casual talk. Flirting. More drinks. Pickup lines. Some more flirting. Out of the bar in less than half an hour of this whole thing.
The conclusion: Hungover but an unforgettable night.

4) Milo Ventimiglia is the type of person, i guess, that just draws you in. His charm, those piercing eyes and that beautiful smile. He's a mystery at first, like he was to Rory (Gilmore Girls!). But mystery is what we are pulled too and you end up discovering he's very kind, someone with a big heart and your typical boyfriend. I was a Rory and Jess shipper!
The backdrop: Record store
The scenario: He would most likely be the type to work there. I have a profound love for music (any type may i add). He wouldn't be noticeable the first few times i'd be there. Coming the 5th time or so, a random subject would pop out and that would be the first 'official' encounter.
The conclusion: Many dates to come.

5) Name me one asian girl who finds Daniel Henney non-attractive? Everything was given to him and i mean e.v.e.r.y.thing! His good looks, his killer body, his amazing personality... He is Mr. Perfect from head to toe.
The backdrop: Home
The scenario: He would be the guy who just moved in next door. The typical hot new neighbor who's gifted with the look and the money (lol). How would we met? I pull a 'desperate housewives' move on him: knock on his door and give him a plate of homemade cookies.
The conclusion: I've been told guys likes a girl who can cook. He would probably be turned on by my baking skills. Thus a blissful fling is called for ;D

This list is for fun purpose. I didn't put Jung Yunho or Robert Pattinson in this list. Because you see, I picture myself being in a relationship with one of the two. Jung Yunho and R.Pattz are a lifetime and they have a special spot in my heart. Plus, Yunho have gotten my mother's approval and she wants him as her future son-in-law! ;) I do find these men to be somewhat close to my ideal type. Don't you find they all have something in common? Over 30, a bit of a shag but still clean coif, well defined jawline and can pull the scruffy i-didn't-bother-shaving-this-morning look. Yes, that is how i like my man.

November Issue

I woke up this morning with a massive throat pain, freezing cold and nasal congestion. The first thing that went through my mind: "I have a valid reason for not going to work and class today -grin-" HA! And no, im not swine. Well at least i hope not. AIDs has existed way before this disease came in the news a couple of months ago and i don't see why the nation making such a big fuss out of it. Seriously. And now, apparently the vaccine doesn't work. The eff? Anyways, a little nap, a good book and some Buckley's syrup (god, the nastiest shit everrr!) did the work. I feel a little bit better now though my throat is still a bit sore. It will probably get better within the next days.

I got bored from all the sleep and no one was home. Went online and started playing around Polyvore. I haven't worked on a set in the longest time. I miss doing this stuff. After watching 'The September Issue' last week, I felt like i was Anna Wintour looking through various runway looks and fall's latest trend. The woman is genius. I can't imagine anyone taking over Vogue after her. I also felt a big materialistic desire to shop. Im all set to go on a Mastercard swiping expedition with a friend on friday. -sigh- How am i suppose to save up for Hawaii when im like this? Oh god, its almost the holidays soon too. But like Carrie Bradshaw would say, "a pair of Manolo doesn't hurt, right?"
