Banane-fever!

Yes, I am hooked...on Banane-fever! LOL

My twitter friends can't resist this new eco-friendly wannabe Hermes bag from Taipei. Driving all the girls in town to own one. Of course, if we can't have the ultimate IT bag, will settle on the next best thing ...the Banane! Price-friendly too. Laaavveett!

And here she is -- the reveal. Banane in Summer Orange color on her way to work ... Perfect summer IT bag. don't you think so? =)

dream travel

Paris. My ultimate dream travel. I always tell my friends eversince I was a kid, I've been dreaming to climb the Eiffel Tower, shop and slurge at Rue Cambon, visit the famous Louvres museum and just have cappucino at one of the al fresco dining at Champs Elysee. Yes, my Paris itnerary already carved in my mind since I was a kid. Just waiting for my dream to become a reality.

Dream that I almost had it...

Last week, several airlines offering good rates for Paris trip. Air Asia, Etihad and even Singapore Airlines offering less than $1,000 round-trip airfare to Paris. Almost grabbed the promo,as I am thinking of drafting personal loans from our local bank to fund the travel. Unfortunately, the husband said no. He has other priorities in mind and travel is the last thing on his plate now. He declined my offer and told me just to wait for the right time. He told me not to force it, as we cannot afford it for now. Probably on our tenth year anniversary, as he wanted our travel to be perfect, with no loans or debt to pay after the trip. Will just simply enjoy fruits of our labor, when the time is right. Of course I heeded his advise.

And Paris ... will always be on my mind. My dream travel.

another upgrade.

Another upgrade? Why not.

The husband is seriously considering changing our present Samsung HDTV LCD to the new Samsung LED. Yes, very sleek and stylish and we fell inlove with it's beauty immediately. The all new Samsung LED Backlighting Technology that delivers breakthrough picture quality, with ultra slim 1.2” design and use 40% less power. Who wouldn't love it! With mega contrast ratios and advanced internet connectivity features, these are Samsung’s best TVs ever and we can't wait to have one in our home. I just hope our local store will be flexible on a friendly payment scheme. Probably 12-months deferred payment at 0% interest ...that would be almost perfect, don't you think so?

gift token idea

If you are looking for the best cigars in town, do check out famoussite.com, the husband was able to purchase good quality Davidoff cigars and gave it as a gift for his Cuban boss last Christmas. He got it I think on a discounted price for pack 0f 50 cigars. As Davidoff cigars finest luxury cigars from Geneve, Switzerland, giving it as a present was a great choice especially for his boos with discriminating taste. Another gift token idea for the smokers, eh? =)

cam upgrade

Yes, I believe I am ready for camera upgrade. My last camera buy was year 2005 with Sony Cybershot DSC-W55 at 7.2MP with 2.5in screen, purchased in Hongkong for about $250. Then two years after, the husband gave me a new camera with panoramic sweep and touch features. The Sony DSC-TX1 with 10.2MP in blue color. It was given to me as a gift. So, technically my last camera purchase was six years ago with my old cybershot point and shoot camera. Tee-hee!

For 2011, I am thinking of getting not a SLR cam but a little lighter than this ... in terms of weight and price! LOL Yes, I am not an avid fan of SLRs, as I find it to expensive, bulky and techie for me. I just want to get a nice camera that will provide sharp and nice photos. Yes, I am easy to please customer. Hahaha! Thus, as recommended by my camera enthusiasts friends, will be buying Panasonic Lumix 5. With 10.1 MP digital camera, 3.0in screen. And the best part, it delivers good picture quality at par with SLR with less fuss at $399.00. Not bad eh. Now I am thinking if I should get black or white ... what do you think?

time zone work problems

Lately, the husband has trouble in sleeping. With him being assigned with Asia market, while his head office in West Coast ... coordination correspondences really hard. And with his line of work now, he's almost 24/7 online with the global time difference. Thus, his sleeping patterns already eratic. It took him months to adjust with this kind of time zone work differences. Thanks to sleep aids he was able to cope and have a good rest. He's usually sleep most of the morning, and wide-awake by night time. Time differences no more. He can deal both worlds in his own time ...and still get enough rest =)
