How many countries a Victoria's Secret parcel will pass by before it reaches me

That is a very long title, hahahah...

Anyway, you all know I love VS. There is no secret that I adore its products. Bras, panties, swimwears, shower gels, shampoo, etc. I've gotta say I have tried all types of products it offers (types, not all the products, mind you :P)

So once in a while, when my VS stock gets low (never too low, heheheh), I will order new batches. And the fun of ordering and waiting always makes me feel giddy. One tip for those who are new to this: If you want an express shipment (i.e. you will receive your order in about 3 days from the day your payment cleared) without paying the premium shipping charge, get something heavy in the mix of your purchase. The best example should be shower gels or shampoos. So far this trick never fails me.

I always wonder which route a package from US takes to reach to this small island. It should be different from those routes we have from Singapore to the States, right? Yes, I am correct. Here is the route that my latest purchase is taking (data taken from UPS website):

OBETZ , OH , US --> LOUISVILLE , KY , US --> KOELN (COLOGNE) DE --> DUBAI AE --> BANGKOK (DON MUANG) TH --> SINGAPORE (CHANGI) SG

Wow, 3 countries, exclusive of US and SG. And within 3 days. I'm impressed. So now the package is out for delivery aka I'm gonna receive it soon. Yay! Can't wait!

Happy 27

I have turned 27 today. Yep, 3 more years and I will hit the big 30. But still, I feel myself as young as when I was 25, or even 21. Hahahaha, I might be stretching the number but thoughts are all that count. If you think you are young, then you are young.

Here I am, on the 1st day of my 27th year on earth.

RIP Michael Jackson

It is now 2AM on 8 Jul 09 in Singapore and I am still awake watching Michael Jackson memorial live on CNN.

I have only one person who I can truly say I am his fan, and it is Michael Jackson. My childhood spent on listening to his songs and watching his video clips. I still remember I had 2 or 3 video tapes which included most of his hits and I kept watching them until the tapes turned bad. I remember seeing his skin black became white but I didn't really care. Even when I read those news about him being accused as a child molester, I didn't believe all those groundless accusation. My heart pained when I saw him getting deteriorated over the time. I knew myself that he would not be able to live for very long, but still when I heard him passed away on that Friday (Singapore time), my heart stopped for a moment and I just blocked the news out. But my job requires me to accept it and let his other fans know this sad news.

For those who are watching his memorial, we 'come together' and we 'remember the time' he had been with us and gifted us with his enormous talent, his joys and his sorrows.

RIP, My King of Pop
