My Baby is now a Girly

Twinkle turned 1 year old! Can you believe that? It seems like its was like a month ago when we first saw her. We had no plans of getting another critter but as soon as I hold her, we knew she'd be happier with us and we can give her much love a fuzzy critter longs to. Well not to make this rant too long, here is my baby girl in her first birthday outfit, and she did really good job modeling it for Momma:

She of course received some gifts which are mostly in pink! from her loving human parents. We are so happy for her and are really proud how she has grown. She is well mannered. She is a stinker, goofy and always starts a play. Just imagine when we are settled in the great room watching tv, movie or something. Star and Sunny were just laying around and her comes, little Twinkle running in full throttle back and forth the great room and on to the stairs going up and down! That leads to the big sister and big brother Sunny wanting to catch her and pin her down, maybe telling her to stop her craziness! However, when someone's really wanting to pick a fight with her, she will just ignore it like she is supposed to. She is feisty but well behaved dog, I tell ya.

Anyway, what did the stinker gets for her birthday? She had a pink donut, pink buddy, pink coach dog collar, pink photo frame and pink pup-pie cake! Her birthday outfit is a hand-me-down outfit from Star's first birthday but it was huge to her. It seems like she already reach her final size so I might get her a perfect size birthday tee for next year. The day after her birthday, Dada bought her more toys! and some chew2x and canoli.

And where are party buddies? Well of course, as usual its Star and Sunny. The boy looked handsome here while Star was kind of nervous the whole time. She was drooling and is not enjoying the party, oh well.....

Snow! Snow! Snow!

We just had snow mania in our place and so its time for fuzzy play! Star loves snow so much! I think she would play in the snow all day long if given a chance. She loves it when she is all covered up with snow. She just runs around me and only stops when we took picture.

Sunny on the other hand used to love snow but this time he did not. Maybe he felt it too cold and the snows could reach his boybits! I wanted him to really just run around like Star but he just really wants to taste the snow as you can see in the picture. Before he could warm up he already wanted to call this snow playing thing quits!

Twinkle's first was awesome. I thought she'd freeze after seeing so much snow but no she even had fun poopin' out! She went around to the bushes and sniffed, she even showed her goofiness and no signs of calling it quits until I had to!

In themed outfit

The fuzzies are in tune for today's Trick or Treating! We've shopped their outfit since the beginning of this month and we are quite happy with our choices. Though, Sunny's costume was kind of weird. Blame it to Dada! He picked a hot dog outfit for poor Sunny. He thought it will be more of Sunny since he loves hot dogs toys. They had their bath and grooming that morning so they smell pretty good and were looking handsome and pretty wearing their outfit. Twinkle and Star wasn't bothered at all. They wore the outfit with pride. Sunny was uneasy with the heaviness and hugeness of his custome. Overall, I think they had fun. They would bark when someone rang's the doorbell and then they would come to the door and sniff the kids when I hand them their candies. Here's my adorable doggies with their outfits!

I carved!

Wow so many first before this year ends! I just had my first pumpkin carving! It was so much fun and thanks to my ever loved JJ who did all the "fun"part. When I got home from work, the pumpkin was all cleaned up and was ready to be carved. I just had to choose what pattern I would want for my pumpkin to look like. He showed me a bunch of websites that I can use to print the stencils. Mine was pretty basic and was very easy to work with, same with JJ so we finished carving in no time. I then took them out, sat them in bed of dried maffle leaves. I lit a candle in it and took a picture. I think they were pretty and I am so proud I got my first pumpkin carving experince!

Fuzzies loves Fuji

Remember we just did apple picking? Oh that was a lot of fun climbing up those tiny branches of Fuji tree. Anyway, I purposely picked tiny fuji's for the fuzzies. I knew they love apple and I thought maybe they would looked cute munching this tiny apples. As soon as we got home and put the apple bags on the floor, their face were on it sniffing and being curious if there is anything for them in it. Twinkle immediately got hold of a tiny one. She ran away with it and rolled over it and starting munching. Her face was so excited! Star and Sunny went with her and just looking at what she got. I called them back and gave them tiny apples as well. They did the same thing, they were rolling on top of the apple and giving that smiley face. Here they are:

Twinkle: An apple a day keeps the vet away!

Sunny: you can never go wrong with apple!

Star: Now you know my secrets for staying sexy!

Our first apple picking!

Fuji Apple Anyone?

I knew apple picking is really a fun thing to do. I just did not really pay attention to harvest time for the last years and before I knew it, I already missed my chance! Oh well, this year I really did watched it like a hawk. I put the dates on my calendar and booked JJ to come with me. We went to a nearest fruit farm and was so ecstatic to see how big this farm and orchard is! I mean they've got tons of products to offer. They not only have fruits but vegetables too. The varieties are amazing and everything were harvest daily. We did the U-pick thingy. Basically we go to their orchard and we picked as many apples as we can and then we were charged per bag. You can even eat while picking for free! OML, I am so stunned seeing those apples on the ground. Here's the score, 95% of the U-pickers were Asian!

Star is 3!

We just had birthday party for Star who turned 3 years old yesterday. As usual we started a day with bathing and grooming and making sure Star, Sunny and Twinkle are clean and smells good to party. I had Star wore her all time favorite birthday tee. She loves it, she was playful and proud wearing it. All three of them wore their party hat which looked really cute! Then I decided to make her birthday cake which is really just made from a pancake recipe. They love it when I make pancake for breakfast and most of the time ate most of my share. So this time, since they love pancake then that's what I made and just decorated it with some frosting. She received toys and chew-chew's from us and she was quit happy. Sunny and Twinkle loved the cake as well and they all played until they run out of juice! (Star is 24 years old in human age)

Mr. Sunny turned a year older

My boy is now two! I felt bad that we could not celebrate it much as we wanted to. We will be off for Vegas tonight and we are still finishing up our luggage. Its funny how things turned out to be. Last year when Star turned two, we also left for our Hong Kong vacation. So I guess, history repeats and they are destined to experience same treatment from their heartless parents! But...but Momma did good job. Momma won't leave without a little celebration for the big boy. We got him a huge birthday cake from the Three Dog Bakery. I also got him his birthday outfit, a party hat, some toys and a coach dog collar in black! Sunny together with Star and Twinkle chowed down the cake and played with balloons. It seems like they enjoyed it. Too bad they have to continue their purty at the Pet Palace Hotel and hopefully enjoy their mini vacation just like Momma and Dada in Vegas.

There's a Dog Bakery!

When I heard there was actually a dog bakery at short north (columbus) I knew I had to go there and check them out. I was excited about what they have for my babies. They need a different varieties of treats aside from the one's I could get from pet stores. I wondered if they have fresh baked biscuits, maybe cookies or anything yummy? Well, realized I needed to get a birthday cake for Sunny's 2nd birthday. Perfect timing, we have a reason to go and see the place! Finally, JJ and I drove down to Short North. It was one of those lazy Saturdays and we were on exploring mode. The place was very easy to locate but a little bit hard to get a parking on weekdays. We just lucked out that we went there on a weekend. They have so much stuff for my babies. I had a hard time picking what they might want. However, the birthday cake was already ordered. I couldn't wait til its Sunny's birthday. Aside from finding the Three Dog Bakery, we also dined in at an Asian restaurant. I had a blast exploring Shorth North and would love to come back there again, one day. Meanwhile, the fuzzies were all so excited looking at the goodies we got for them. They kept following the bag of goodies. As if they knew that its actually for them. They just kept their nose close to it and really paid attention to my moves. They sniffed and growl when one of them gets really close to the treat. They made sure they sat at a good distance to and from the goodies and that none of them gets sneeky! Anywho, here they are around the yummy goodies.

I especially liked this priceless photo of Twinkle. I don't know though if her eyes got big due to the flash or she was just enjoying her buckeye treat.

Star looked so happy and content after chowing down biscuits and the buckeye treat. I think they were stuffed. Mr. Sunny was already taking a nap by this time :)

Poor Little One

My little Twinkle got spayed this morning. I felt so bad for her because she was so tiny and sweet and I don't think she is ready for this but it was about that time that it needs to get done. We don't want her to get her first period and then be spayed after just like what happened to Ms. Star. So, Dada took her in to Big Walnut Animal Care Center where the Vet's are awaiting to care for her. I tell you, they are super nice in that place and are good in what they are doing. They finished the operation on time. She had to recuperate before we could pick her up but she did really well. I decided to go get her this time with Ms. Star and Mr. Sunny. Their nails needs to get trimmed. Dada came to pay the bills and off we were home. I had to put Twinkle inside a cage where the 2 fuzzies are off limits. Twinkle had to slow down on everything, no jumping, rough playing or else the stitches will ripped off!

Finally @ Charles Penzone

I finally got the chance to use my Charles Penzone gift card. Almost 6 mos. since JJ gave it to me as my Valentines day gift before I finally got so tired of my dry uneven colored hair. Actually, I had been wanting to get a hair cut for the past 2 months but something always stopped me from getting an appointment. I think I develop a salon phobia or some sort. If you knew me well, you've seen me blogging about my latest haircut and trying out new hair color before. The last one was when I had my hair cut really short. After that, I did colored my hair back to black and then I just let it grow. I also cut my bangs courtesy of Amanda, a friend from work. But thats just about it. The last 2 weeks, I was really close into getting a haircut in one of those small chain salons but JJ was so insistent. He wanted me to use the gift card to get massage, and maybe have my nails done. So I waited and finally today while I am off from work and JJ is working from work, we sneaked out and get lunch and at the same time get an appointment at Charles Penzone. I was gonna do online appointment but it would asked me to choose a stylist and I have no idea who would I pick. Finally, I got scheduled for 4:45 so now I have a new hair! Yayyyy! It wasn't bad experience at all. Jodi was fast! Well, I choose to just get a plane haircut with a style which she managed to get it done in 45 minutes! Wooott! wooot! Awesome, I will surely come back...had no choice, I still have $189 balance in my gift card.

My long hair taken 2 weeks prior to my hair cut.
(Excuse the tongue sticking out)

The new me :) style was from a girl I saw online, I took a picture using my cellphone and showed it to Jodi, my stylist. Basically a contemporary hairstyle with soft layers enough to touch the shoulder. The edges were textured to give a modern edge. She also fixed my bangs and made it more fuller.

I felt like a new human being after the cut. My head feels lighter, diffinitely a new person. Amazing what a haircut can do to a person, its like a magic, I feel chic and funky, LOL.

I bought my first furniture

I have been asking JJ to get me a nice curio cabinet that I can house my mini tea sets collection for quite a long time. It has never been granted! Arggh! I bought 5 mini tea sets recently and on top of that my friend Ligaya gave me one, I have not thanked her yet (I don't think!) bad me :( so I have quite a few collection in one tiny corner curio cabinet display. So, I took matters on my own hands. I search and found one off *bay that I have fallen in love with.

I ordered it, came so fast and JJ assembled. Dang, we found 2 imperfections. When doors are shut they don't align correctly as you can see in the peekture.

There was also a discolored area at the top left corner of the surface.


I then e-mailed the seller and he was very helpful. Without questions, did not even looked at the pictures I attached on my e-mail as my evidence, he just asked me to give him the letters of the parts replacement and in just 2 days, I received my replacement!

Wanna see my display??? Oh no not yet. I am still waiting for one more shipment and then I can show you my new entry way, hopefully before Fall everything will be into place.

Flowers from my Garden

I haven't really paid much attention to my garden this season. Weed extraction is the only thing I did after I put mulch on it last Spring. I have not watered nor fertilized it but it still flowering like crazy. I can't help but get my camera and get some shots. I also experiment some functions of my camera which I seldom do and I am happy about the result. What can I say I am just a plain boring Auto function user, well sad but true!!! LOL! Anyway, without further ado, here they are:

Pink Stargazer Lilly

Yellow Calla Lilly

Daffodil

Potentilla -Gold Drop

Grape Hyacinth

Purple Lupine (I have red's too)

Tulips (sorry I don't have a good micro shots!)

My Yellow Gladiolus are about to bloom in a week or two.

What's annoying about her

Twinkle is at the teething stage right now and you know how dog's behave when they are at that stage? Unlike kids who cries and gets uneasy or cranky when they are teething, dogs are at least to my experience from Star and Sunny, get crazier, they like to bite and nibble on our fingers, they bite our toes and ankle. If no one is there for them to play and play attention, they can really ruin your furniture. BUT, they good thing is that Twinkle has Star and Sunny plus JJ and I to chew on. So she is not really into our furniture. When Sunny was teething, he had literally ruin our side tables, coffee table and then some areas of stairway. Other common behavior they all portray is that they like to play with water. They all like to dig on it and dump everything out from the water bowl. Its kind of annoying because I have to clean the mess many times a day. I like to just leave them 2 bowls of water a day especially when JJ and I are at work. I want them to have access to water all the time. Now, as soon as we got home, I see flood of water! I can't really be angry at her, I know her gums are in pain and there is really nothing I can do, except to give her ice cubes from time to time. I hope it all comes out so this cleaning saga will end! Cross my fingers*

Taking care of Gadgets

I finally was able to bring my Ipod to work, thank God! JJ forbid me from bringing her to work without the invisible shield installed and vaja cases I ordered online. Now, I don't have to worry her inside my purse being scratched because the invisible shield protects her and then God forbids, accident happen it fell on the floor, there is always vaja cases for protection.

I am really enjoying her a lot, now I don't have to listen to xm radio that plays the same music over and over the whole freakin' day! Gosh, you have no idea how I hated it, now I can switch to my Ipod when I am on break and after work when I have to do the 2 report. It's just the perfect Ipod and the vaja case, I can just hook it on one of my belt loop. I am still working on my music, compilation I have about 1.59GB free space right now.

Plum out, Signature Bucket in and new Product Red

Yep, you got it. I have returned my second Coach handbag purchase after 3 days of receiving it. Don't get me wrong, the color was really pretty, the size is really good and its soft and I am really loving it but the reviews at the forum regarding patent leathers were not good and so I got scared that it might turn into one of those horrifying stories. Thus, the return of plum patent tote!

Sigh** my heart ached as soon as I stepped in into their Easton boutique. But JJ was there for me supporting how sad I'd feel for letting it go. In fact, right before we left the house we had an agreement that I can only look at displays but I should refrain myself from being tempted of getting a replacement, in short I better be a good girl or else I'd get a spanking from him :p

When we got there, there was no questioning or whatsoever but I was asked if I wanted to look around?? And I just smiled and looked down, I knew I'd be tempted and then JJ stepped in, he told the SA we will return it for now but we would look around and if there is anything I like we will think it over and come back the next day. Good reasoning/ errr good excuse??? LOL!

So days went by and my birthday is approaching. I felt anxious that I don't have a new purse for my birthday. I don't know if I can already call it a tradion but I've been used to getting purses on special occasions for many years now. Although deep inside, I am hoping that JJ will get me a purse even a wristlet will do so I waited with an agony.


On one of our trips to Easton, days before the 4th we stopped by at the apple store and JJ got me a replacement to my iPod classic which is his birthday gift.

I got the (Product) Red iPod Nano 3G. I am happy and excited about it and as soon as we got home he synchronized my new nano to our music library at iTunes and voila, I got the teeny winee iPod, working sweet! Now, I can use my Motorola stereo blue tooth headphone with iPod adapter, he got it for me from last years birthday and it hasn't really been used that much.

So what did we do on my very birthday day? July 4th is America's birthday and so most families gather for party, having fun, enjoying a good meal and what else! That same day, its hard to get a good restaurant for dinner. Its been a struggle for us ever since I got here 4 years ago. Most of them are closed! So this time we outsmarted them, lol, instead of dinner we went for lunch! Even then, the first two restaurants that we attempted were closed the whole day! What a bummer, so we went to Polaris Mall and found Brio Tuscan Grill was opened so off we go.

After a sumptuous lunch, JJ asked me where else I would wanna be and added that he would take me anywhere I wanted to go because its my big day so I blurted "prime outlet mall"! Although, that was already on my mind for days! I did a little shopping spree at the Correlle store. I bought some additional serving plates and miscellaneous stuff.

Then, off to the Coach store, again??? At first, I was really just planning on getting collars for my fuzzies. Yay, to designer dogie collars, wohooo!!! Star and Twinkle, got leather collars but my poor boy won't be getting anything on this trip, there is none that would fit him. There were a lot of people up there, lots of purses on sale from 15% to 60%. I told myself, If I ever get a purse, It has to be a little more or less than a $100 (let's call it self-control).

I spent a few rounds checking at their displays until I saw this tiny signature top handle pouch. I looked around for a different color and learned from one of the SA's that was the only 1 at the store. So I hold on to it and decided it was worth keeping. Yay, I am inlove again. It was just perfect for a quick trip to a movie, dinner, grocery shoppin' or doing a little errands. I also got a scarf to help the black color pop out a little bit. I also grabbed a purple butterfly cellphone lanyard which is very cute. This trip's motif was purple and I am rockin' it! WOhhhoooo!!!! Happy birthday to ME!!!!

Our family is growing

We have a new baby Shih Tzu! Wohoooo!!! I can't believe we are doing this. I am actually very scared with this idea. It wasn't planned at all. We were at Easton Town Center last saturday, was checking out if Tiffany & Co., had already opened. They weren't. It will be a few months more before it happens.

So we went to grab a dinner at California Kitchen and then we were gonna watch a movie but nothing really sounds very exciting. So we window shopped. The mall was not a chaotic as it usually is. Probably because of the weather, it was bad, windy and raining. Finally, it cleared up, decided to go home. JJ stopped at the Petland store in Westerville. I was surprised that he was going to. Infact, i told him, they had no dogs in there. He said maybe they have. I joked that if they even have dogs, then they were ugly dogs and he said, then we could just make fun of the ugly dogs!

So when we got there, there were a lot of kids and a LOT of puppies actually. One of the SA's came and asked if he could get me something(pup) out? and I pointed out the shih tzu! Gossshhh! What's with us and this breed? Well, one thing, they are fuzzy, cute, cuddly, sweet and for JJ's advantage, they don't stir up allergies! The pup, was so sweet, seems like an easy dog, not too shy, not too excited. So we played with her in one of the closed rooms. Well, to make this long story not too long...JJ agreed to take her overnight, and see how Sunny and Star reacts to her. When we got home, she seems like she is happy to be home. No signs of being scared, she have lots of energy, running around and exploring the house. JJ thought she'll be a good addition to the fuzzy family.

That night, was kinda rough for all f us. Sunny and Star were stressed and Twinkle was restless on sleep time. To my surprise and amazement, JJ and Twinkle went to sleep downstairs at the great room so I can get some sleep! JJ knows I needed it for work. See, how sweet and caring my hubby is? He only got like 3 hours of sleep, the pup didn't settle until he put her in the kennel.

I on the other hand, was scared of these 3 critters. I thought it would be too much for me to take care of. Imagine I have to bath/groom the 3 of them. Feed them, take them out for potty, walk and what else. I told JJ the next day I had to go to work, if he decides to take her back, I'd be kind of sad but it would probably be best! However, the pup was still here when I got home. SO, I guess she is ours!

So, we named her Twinkle. She is barely 5mos. old. Pure breed shih tzu. Truly a lap dog, sweet, kind however stubborn, we hope she won't grow into full size. She is very easy going dog. On her second night, she even slept with us in the bed...Gosh...this Queen size bed is becoming too crowded for JJ and I with Sunny and Twinkle around. Good thing Star likes to sleep under the bed, how about getting us a bigger size bed Babe??? Ehem!

Reunited with an old flame

Old flame...as in old loved RC car! Remember, we had this huge project at the basement last spring? We had transferred all the boxes contents into plastic containers and stocked them into shelves. One boxes contained his toys and this 2 favorite toys were in it. So he got so excited, he thought that his Mom has thrown them into trash long time ago but they were just at the basement, in one of the boxes, collecting dust. And so the love affair with RC cars has been rekindled. That means spending time at the hobby stores for stuff needed to get it running.

He finally were able to put it all together again and so it was time to test its speed. Everybody boarded the Suv, and off to the nearest school where he can use the huge parking lot without a problem. He got it running and is now in perfect condition, I took a video unfortunately, flickr had a hard time downloading it....so darn! For now just be content with pics, ok?

Btw, what you saw was just the skeleton, he has yet to put the body in a few days.

Here she is!

Yep, she arrived last Wednesday to my surprise, FedEx actually delivered her even if its not due for delivery until Thursday. I'm so excited, hubby got me a photo of my huge box!
I'm so delighted, the color was amazing, its plum and I never owned a purse with this gorgeous color, so i would recommend it to anyone! Its very spacious and soft, very easy to clean, wanna see her now?


There she is! My gorgeous Bleeker Patent Tote in Plum....(sorry for the PJ's)

Ughhh....PCE sucks!

Just an update about my PCE purchase. FedEx decided not to leave my package last Wednesday because it wasn't due for delivery until the following day. It's a little annoying but whatever. When I finally got it and saw it, I was kinda disappointed. There was no magic or whatsoever between me and Ms. Perfume Print Coin Purse. She was kinda cute but not really cute especially for how much I paid for her. You don't wanna know!

So, I made an effort to model it and post it at the forum and asked everyone's opinion about it:

Here's all the comments:

• Well, I personally love it. How cute for carrying the essentials when you go out! It looks really cute on you!
• I think thats kind of pricy for something your having second thoughts on. But then again, its just not my style of bag. Too small.
• I dont like it, and i think that price is too high for it! Sorry hun, just my honest opinion! x
• i love it! i've been trying to find one for myself. the only one available on the bay is like $199! my other option is my gf in japan, and it's approx $350+ there!
• i'd say it's a steal at $100! i would totally keep it if i were you.
• It's cute, but...-not so practical-will get dirty easily-is it age appropiate?
• I think if you would be more happy with a perfume print wristlet.
• I bought it when the Japan site first got it. I collect coin purses and thought this would be great. I honestly didn't expect it to be this large and I feel this style shouldn't be that big. For me it was just awkward. I brought mine back. If you don't care for it...get something else.
• I have that scarf too...you have great taste!! If you aren't in love with the coin purse, don't keep it.
• I personally don't care for the perfume print..IMHO, but it looks cute on you... if you don't like it, I wouldn't spend that much money on it, i'd take it back.. keep it...especially
• Wow, it's much larger than I thought it would be. I think it's cute and in a way, better than a wristlet because it keeps your hand's completely free. But, if you don't 100% love it, then return it. I'd keep it a little longer just to make sure, though. if the price bothers you. Spend your $$ on something you LOVE!
• There's something about the perfume print that I have fallen in love with. The bright colors maybe? Cheers me up I guess...but most Coach items do, so...
  I got the wristlet, bangle, and scarf with that print, and love them all.
  I'd say the coin purse is cute for a casual going-out kind of thing, but I don't think it would be too practical for everyday, if you are looking to put the $100 towards something you might use more often.
  Maybe you would use the wristlet version more, if that's your thing? But if you're not loving this one, I'd say take it back. Looks cute on you though!
• Don't keep it if you don't love it, no matter how hard it is to find / steal it is! Unless you're making a collection of it..
• I think if you are having second thought than it is not worth it. I personally could never wear. Nothing would fit, I might as well get a wristlet.
• I love it!!!!!!!!!
• I definitely LOVE that and don't think you are too old. That is a great bag for going out with the girls in the summer. Would go with white capris, jean capris, etc. Crossbody, so don't have to worry about messing with it. I am 50+ and I would use it.
• I think it's so cute. I actually like that fact that it is a bit bigger than an average coin purse.
• I just received the same one but will be returning it tomorrow. It's cute but just not practical for me.
• I do not really care for it either. I think the price is a bit high. If you do not love it, exchange it for something you really will love.
• i think it's cute
• Honestly, worn cross body it reminds me of one of my niece's purses (she is 2). But used as a clutch, would be a fun purse.
• IMO, that is too much for something that small. And if you don't like I would probably say to return?exchange it for something that you really like.
• I think it's really cute, I would get it myself, if it weren't too pricey. If the price doesn't bother you then I say keep it, if it does then you should take it back. Might find some on *bay for cheaper, or it might even end up at the outlets.
• For $50, yes. For $100+, not so much.
  It's cute, but it's not THAT cute.
• I love her!!!!!
• I love it......mostly. I would love it if it were a coin purse (aka no strap) and had the kisslock and that pattern. I would never pay $103 for it though... I love the perfume print though! That's a chunk of change to spend on something you're not totally crazy about though!
• omg that is so freakin cute! how much is that?
• i think it looks good on your body, fits nicely with your shape KEEP IT!
• i heart the scarf so much...not feeling the coin purse though..
• To be honest, I am not a perfume print fan and I don't think I would have been drawn to that at all, but when I see it on you, it just looks SO cute on you! And judging by your picture, it fits the essentials quite well which is really nice for being hands free and just wanting to carry the essentials.

With all the comments, I have decided myself that it is worth spending more $$ getting something that I can really make use of. I also thought that although its really cute, it might not be cute anymore when it gets dirty. There is also very little space for me to carry personal items, as you can see.

So, I made a trip back to the nearest boutique and exchange it into something different. This time something I saw from the girls at the forum. It really looked gorgeous, the color is to die for and its patent, so It doesn't have all the "c" logos. I got excited the very first time I saw it and seems like its speaking to me like telling me to buy it, maybe this time around this purse is something I can get crazy off. But I could be wrong. This is my second purchase from the boutique where I have yet to see the bag in real life because it hasn't made it to the stores yet, so will see.

I tell you, I was kinda sad about this purchase because I expected that I could save around $100 like the ladies at the forum. But apparently, the PCE discount card have some limitations. I remember the SA telling me about the "One time use" policy of the card but the rules of exchanging an item was not explained at all. So, when I went to exchange it, I thought I could still get the discount but I was wronged. They said I could only get the discount if I only exchange it with the same item, only with different color.

Oh well, I still ordered it and currently waiting 'till it gets here. It better be a gorgeous bag or I else, I'll end up returning 2 purses in just 2 weeks!
