			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>these past few months I learned that there are things you don&#8217;t get to buy with money. You can have the corner office with big windows, you can bust your ass off 12 hours a day or you can get foked up in an alphard for four hours each day. But no amount of money can buy you a peaceful mind. </p>
<p>after I was told that I&#8217;m gonna be responsible for the well being of so many people, I guess I haven&#8217;t been feeling so well myself. Sadly, when I refused to take the duty, I was told not to be so selfish. </p>
<p>I guess I have no choice then. Jocasta lied. Life isn&#8217;t about making choices. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Got a text this morning that kinda ruined my mood. Apparently Revlon decided to discontinue their Photoready Pressed Powder :( I ordered mine last month and they told me that they would try to find it in another counters but turned out that it has been discontinued. </p>
<p>You see, I&#8217;m not the kind of person who will go loco over make up products since the raw material is decent enough. *cough* (Okay, I can hear some vomitting), plus I think the cleaning up process is troublesome. I started putting them on after my mum got me a set from estee lauder as a wedding gift. My daily make up ritual usually consists of vitamin water, moisturizer, foundation, loose powder, eyeliner and eyebrow pencil. I seriously can&#8217;t be bothered with those HD primers and other things. But I admit that I have too many liquid eyeliner because I always thought that I lost them so I go and buy a new one then found the old one. </p>
<p>Anyway, I am extremely sad because I can&#8217;t get the pressed powder anymore. The thing I like about this product is that it&#8217;s a loose powder being pressed so it&#8217;s easier to carry. I know I can just carry compact powder for touch up but I had my heart set on this one combined with big powder brush. Maximum coverage FTW. Plus it&#8217;s cheap. I don&#8217;t remember how much exactly but I guess it was less than 200K. </p>
<p>Well, I have to go to Sogo later to exchange it with other products. The thing is, Kiehl&#8217;s and Estee Lauder counters are there. With this skincare chats I&#8217;ve been having, I think it will be wise to leave my purse in the office. Agree? Smiw? </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I cannot emphasize how awful 2011 was but since it didn&#8217;t kill me, it should made me better, faster, stronger, etc. Right?</p>
<p>The problems will still be there when I go to work tomorrow. Although I&#8217;m not aure whether I&#8217;d be healthy enough to go to work. I had my first ER moment on Thursday night and the doctor suspected that it was dengue. I&#8217;ve been resting at home for these past four days. My temperature was normal since yesterday but suddenly I got a really bad flu and cough. Maybe I&#8217;ll see a doctor tomorrow.</p>
<p>Anyway, 2012 please be gentle.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>should I give up on life?</p>
<p>Okay, maybe I had one super bad year. But as the year closing, it&#8217;s becoming worse and worse. These days, I don&#8217;t even give a damn about whether my insurance will cover suicides or not. Honestly, spending a good one hour planning my suicide scenes is the only comfort and peace my mind can have. </p>
<p>Well, let&#8217;s see. The thing I messed up at work doesn&#8217;t seem to have any solution now or near the future. And it affects a lot of people. Every time I arrive at the office my stomach acid would flow like there&#8217;s no tomorrow. That&#8217;s why I&#8217;ve been consuming polysilane as breath mints. </p>
<p>And working in family business means any shit you face at work, follows you home. Since every thing I touch usually turns into shit. Maybe it&#8217;s suitable to use the phrase &#8216;in deep shit&#8217;. </p>
<p>You know, I could live this life of making mistakes and making amends. The thing I can&#8217;t stand anymore is to (re)realize (for the friggin zillionth time) is that I&#8217;m the mistake in the life of the people I care about. I feel like the wrong daughter, the wrong sister, the wrong employee, the wrong wife, and I don&#8217;t wanna be the wrong mother for my future kids. </p>
<p>I seriously don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ll make any differences being alive or dead. Why should I keep putting every one in misery. Maybe one blow and no more is better for them. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;ve ever been this tired. Plus this fever and the fact that I can&#8217;t go to tomorrow&#8217;s gathering had pushed me to my limit. I hit the bottom once again. And I have nothing to look forward to anymore. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s lonely down here. </p>
