Michael Jackson....the saddest news ever.



I have never felt so sad like this for someone I do not know personally and from this experience I now know what it feels like when people say someone "touched your heart".


When I first heard the news, I just couldn't believe it - The King of Pop died! Every time I turned my head and saw a newspaper with this headline, I felt a slight dizziness and I felt like crying. I kept convincing myself I shouldn't feel this way because it's not me. I am a light-headed person who will usually shrug my shoulders and say "this is life". But this one is totally different.


It's just so sad in the real world how people give so much emphasis to misconceived negativity but take for granted immeasurable goodness during a person's life, and then realise all the good things only after a person has passed away.

I feel angered with the heartless people who do not know him well but slag him off even after his shocking death. It is very easy for them to judge someone they do not know and yet they do not question their own imperfection.


He will be sadly missed. I am so heart-broken.


My heart goes to all the family and the millions of fans who feel the same way I do, and maybe even worse. Let's pull ourselves together because his music will still live. God Bless you all and Michael Rest in Peace!

When shopping for handbags......


Throughout my experience shopping (and selling), one thing I notice when women shop for handbags: Women more often ask their other half for their approval if they should buy it or not.


The answer: 95% say NO! Only a small admirable 5% actually support their female partners, girlfriends or wives with their purchase, and some would even go the extra mile and buy it themselves! But the sad part is there are only very few good men who will.


Why do you think men say NO? Well, these men do not use a bag at all, so for them a handbag is a useless object. Secondly, very few appreciate women's fashion so no matter how beautiful a handbag is, they will still say NO! One more thing... throughout the years, men never understood and will never accept the fact that women must have more than one handbag. They moan if you have three and yet they do not question themselves why they have different football shirts which usually cost more than a high street bag! Hello?


So ladees... when shopping for a handbag, ask a female friend or relative instead. If you are on your own, use your instincts. Because if we ask men if they approve of a handbag purchase, they usually say NO, some will say Yes... but they do not actually look at it... they agree just to get the shopping over and done with because they want to get out of the handbag section real quick. Hence, you do not get an honest and more appreciated opinion.


And to the few good men who support women's fashion.... I salute you and may God multiply you!
