The Heat

July 29, 2009 by juwita

The weather has been acting up lately. It’s just effing hot. It’s unbearable.

I went for a facial on Monday and got a scalp, head and shoulder massage. It was just awesome. Well to me it was. Am a sucker for massages. I’d waste money on massages and reflexology ;p

In hope of feeling all fresh and hyped up. Instead, I’ve been popping my blue pills again. Well, their Synflex. A migraine buster. I’ve been having a massive headache and body aches. It’s so bad. I’ve been sleeping endlessly. I can’t seem to feel well rested. I sleep, open my eyes for a split second, sleep again.

I think it’s bad. At least I don’t have a temperature. So going to go sleep now. I’ve to take my grandma for her check up tomorrow. Will blog about my friend’s beautiful wedding soon. Pretty pictures as well.

Night ya alls!

On a lighter note. I so want this. So pretty.

*wishing upon the stars*

Perhaps It Was The Coffee

July 27, 2009 by juwita

Am wider awake at almost 4am. I was sleepy at 12, so I turned to bed. But instead here I am wide awake. Sigh.

As most of you might know, I run an online boutique. Sounds hip? Haha. Don’t be fooled.

It seems that new online boutique spurs like mushroom after a rain. More and more online boutiques are available day by day. It’s crazy. It’s tough to keep up with the competition out there. I’ve been doing this since 2007. After getting some encouragement, advice and help from family and friends. It is a great way to express your fashion sense, sharing your passion in fashion and making others beautiful. Also a good source for some little extra cash.

But, it isn’t as easy as it seems. I truly think that it is tougher than handling a physical boutique. Why so? Read on.

1. Customers bargain though it’s clearly stated as NON-NEGOTIABLE. Prices for clothes sold online are relatively cheaper than buying it offline. This is because we do not have a physical boutique. We take very little profit compared to them.

2. Customers start to call you by the name that your friends call you. Do you actually know me? Or perhaps giving me nicknames such as “Sis”. That’s just so wrong at every level. I hate it. I truly do, when people who are not close to me call me by any sort of nickname.

3. Customers who assumes postage is free. Postage is already at it’s bare minimum. You want it free some more? Please do consider the fact that we have to drive to the post office. This takes petrol and parking. It can’t be free, unless stated.

4. Every shop or every business has it’s downtime ain’t it? So as a normal human being, I need to sleep. Please don’t text me at 3 am saying you want that top. It won’t go anywhere. I’d be asleep. Stop texting at the sound of midnight. Please I’d be nicer to you if you did that for me.

5. I only hold the items for 48 hours. Don’t throw a BT if you didn’t reply or confirm with me within the 48 hours. It’s a policy I hold. Everybody deserves to have a chance. Others want it too…perhaps even more than you wanted.

6. I will post it out in the morning if you paid the night before. But if you pay before 12 noon, if I am free. I’d go send it for you.

There’s a few more but this are the basics of them all. Please girls, I love you all for being such a supportive customer. But do respect my needs as well. Do send suggestion on how to improve jujuwiwitata’s. Or if there are any items that you wished I sold.

Thanx. Lotsa love.

“My God!” was all I said when the quiz result came out ;p Some are true. Some aren’t. Some are shocking. Hehe.

You fall in love quickly and easily. And very often.

You tend to give more than take in relationships.

You tend to get very attached when you’re with someone. You want to see your love all the time.

You love your partner unconditionally and don’t try to make them change.

You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren’t loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.

Target

July 21, 2009 by juwita

Ever since I was a little girl, I had a mission in life. I had targets and goals to achieve. I was a go-getter, never settling for second best.

I excelled academically, did sports, played music, sang in the National Youth Choir, danced for MATIC and the list goes on. I was an over achiever all rounder.

I grew up, still driven as ever. But last year, everything changed. It all stopped abruptly. I lost the spark within me. I didn’t know who I was. I could not see my purpose. I slaved myself at work. Got totally engrossed in it. I forgot how to have fun. I couldn’t differentiate a friend to a foe.

I took a break from it all and am proud to say that I can finally see myself again. I know who my friends are. Who to turn to. Am slowly smiling again. At least I know now.

Currently am taking one thing at a time. No more juggling. No more trying to be wonderwoman. Am resetting my goals and putting my priorities first. I’ve got my drive within me. It’s always been in me. It never left. That thing that keeps me striving and keeps me alive.

Baby steps for now.

A Week Ago

July 19, 2009 by juwita

With the birthday girl

With the birthday girl

A week ago, my girlfriends and I decided to have a lil surprise celebration for Liza. We wanted to have a picnic yet most of us weren’t free. So a meet up over tea was what we settled for. It was held at the perfectly pretty location of Garden Cafe, One Utama.

I’ve been wanting to go there since forever. It always looked so pretty.  A secret garden well hidden deep within a hustling bustling mall. Sounds perfect to me. So off us girls went there, got some hats and blowers to surprise Liz and not to forget a mini cake ;p The cake was so small yet cute. Just the right size for the five of us.

Liz was turning 24. Just like the rest of us. We waited ever so patiently for her to arrive. But she spotted us on her way in. Dang, but oh well. She was so shy and stunt when we took out the cake and sang for her the birthday song. Hehe.

It was truly a simple suprise but the crowd was what matters most to us. We had a super duper great time. Oh let me mention to you that the food there was great. The portion was big. And…the deco was so lovely. I’ve always been a fan of country deco. Just the way my house is. So going into a wooden white English country garden was so magical for me.  A few of my gfs were talking about throwing a wedding there. It would look really nice there. Here are a few pictures of us and the venue.

Don't we look like garden gnomes?

I Read This Somewhere

July 16, 2009 by juwita

I read this somewhere and fell in love with it. I believe that this is very true indeed. This is what relationships are about.

We have expanded wisdom and self love. We know that behind every smile is probably a tear or two. Behind every tender stroke could have been a moment of compromise, and we hope that, in the strangely single land when we finally leave it, it is with calmness, maturity, bigness of heart and soul such that the love is all consuming and nothing is a compromise. We would have met the man or woman who is our true soulmate, who may be different from us in every way but because  what we love are the differences, maybe  the smelly feet , not so funny jokes and quirkiness but it isn’t a compromise.We can truly embrace the saying, it is not how much you love the perfection but it is in loving the imperfection that spells  true love.

The Brave Drink

July 14, 2009 by juwita

Alcohol is an organic compound from the hydroxyl group that is bound together by a carbon atom. Also refers to ethanol which is found in the alcoholic beverages.

Alcoholic beverages are commonly known as alcohol. Alcohol is categorized into three groups : beers, wines and spirits.

 

Beer

Beer is largely consumed and is the oldest type of alcohol. It is also very popular that it is rated third most consumed drinks after water and tea. It’s mainly derived from cereal grains. Drinking beer at a warmer temperature brings out the flavour while drinking beer at a cooler temperature is believed to be more refreshing.

 

Wine

Wine is made out of fermented grape juice. Its taste is sweet and rich. The older the wine, the better it taste. Some people collect wine, the value of older wine is really expensive.

 

Spirit

Spirit us also known as distilled beverage or liquor. It is a drinkable liquid that contains ethanol that is made from distilled fermented grain, fruit or vegetables. There are no sugar added.

I do not consume alcohol. It is against my religious beliefs and my personal belief. But I have nothing against individuals who drinks. That is a choice that they have made. So be it. For as long as they respect my decision and do not force me into drinking, I’ll be fine.

I dislike it when people use alcohol as an excuse for their behaviour. Drinking alcohol comes responsibility. There has been so many cases where this phrase is being used, “It wasn’t me. It was the alcohol talking.”

Both girls and guys take advantage of this drunken status. Doing outrages things that they wouldn’t normally do. Mostly this drunken actions would lead to regrets, while some might be great. Oh yes, shall we not forget the hangover that occurs the next day.

Drunkards can also be a sore sight. Especially if their girls. Turning red, stripping clothes off, chasing after guys, kissing another girl, some start getting physical. This is an excuse to seek attention from guys. To a certain point it would seem hot and sexy. But once you pass the barrier of disrespecting yourself. It makes you cheap and easy.

Remember, drinking comes with great responsibilities.

Consuming too much alcohol can lead to alcoholism which has it’s effects. Alcohol’s effects is divided into two : short term and long term.

So, drink wisely.

Sometimes

July 11, 2009 by juwita

Sometimes I think I am ready to face the world head on.

Sometimes I come running to hide from the evil world.

Sometimes I think am alright.

Sometimes I don’t know how I am.

Sometimes I am all smiles.

Sometimes I am in tears.

Sometimes I miss you.

Sometimes I don’t.

Sometimes I wish to be with you.

Sometimes I love you.

Sometimes I miss you.

Sometimes I am confuse.

Sometimes emotions comes to quick and plays with my mind.

But never have I hated you.
