Happy Days! XD
#1. It's probably not something new by now, but I have developed this new hobby of collecting a particular type of vintage collectible - My Little Pony! And without burning a hole in my pocket (yet).
I've managed to get a whole bundle of ponies on eBay for less than £1 each, which included postage and packaging. Now I have 10 ponies on display in my room and 8 more still in the 'bath and grooming' stage.
There's actually one more pony which is a plush toy on my bed. And she is very soft and cuddly! Each of my ponies are given a bath, shampoo-ed, hair conditioning, then styled into curls before leaving their hair to dry and set. I *heart* ponies! Happy days! XD
#2. Another thing I'm happy about is my sweet dear. We were involved in some arguments lately but it's all fine now. Sweet, happy, loving days. XD He even stayed home to accompany me today instead of going for badminton after work.
It's in the style of Victoria Beckham, apparently. Not that I'm a fan of her style, but I simply love the pentagon/hexagon/octagon-like shape of it. I think it's ASOS's own label but it certainly does not look like some cheapo sunshades that you get from tourist stalls. You get what I mean.

And we watched a movie together - A Moment to Remember. I think it's quite similar to another movie, A Walk To Remember because the love story is along the lines of someone sick and dying. Happy days! XD
#3. I also found out that the iPhone is the BEST phone in the world. But that is MY opinion so don't flame me. It's got GREAT apps that don't cost a penny and I'm actually hooked to it for all the essentials like Facebook, Twitter, eBuddy, eBay, Skype, Flixter Movies, Google Audio/Voice Search, Photobucket uploads, and the list goes on.
One more useful app is an iTunes Remote Control, that actually allows me to select any song in my Music Library to play out of my computer's loud speakers without even clicking on iTunes.
Others that I use frequently are the Spendometer (which calculates my weekly spendings), 8 Glasses a Day (of water), Girl's Menstrual Cycle Calendar & Record (that even calculates the probability of pregnancy!), and loads of other photo touch-up and camera apps. Cool beans!
The games I installed are great as well - the addictive ones like Lemonade Tycoon, Vampire Wars: BloodLust (YES the Zynga one on Facebook), Tap Tap Revenge (like Dance Dance Revolution, O2Jam, SuperDancer Online X), Solitaire (MY #1 GAME TO FALL ASLEEP ON), and even console games like Assassin's Creed, Rockstars, Fast & Furious, Brothers in Arms, Cooking Mama, etc.
Now who can get bored when boredom strikes and you've got an iPhone in your palm? Happy days! XD
#4. Besides receiving 2 parcels filled with ponies today, I also received my order from ASOS.com. I bought a denim skirt, a buttoned shirt (in hot pink!) and black trousers. Part of a new wardrobe for my future work attire.
I also got myself a new belt which is elasticated at the back for comfort. And finally, the item that I'm in luv with right now is a pair of new oversized sunglasses!
It's in the style of Victoria Beckham, apparently. Not that I'm a fan of her style, but I simply love the pentagon/hexagon/octagon-like shape of it. I think it's ASOS's own label but it certainly does not look like some cheapo sunshades that you get from tourist stalls. You get what I mean.
However, the weather looks like it just can't make up its mind. One moment there's sunshine and baked-up kind of heatwave, and 10 minutes later it'll be pissing it down. AND the ceiling will be leaking! Happy days!
Err.. Not quite.
But still, it's England... so, HAPPY DAYS!!! XD
P/S. Jamie Oliver's new baby girl was named after a My Little Pony! Her name is Petal Blossom Rainbow!! Now that's either pretty amusing or disturbing. =_="
