....holiday do'z and don'tz...


okay, it's approaching the holiday season, and this sistah is sharing a tip or two on what to do and what not to do.. just to make ur holiday more enjoyable..

do:
go on a strict diet program, for the minimum of one week in advance. aim to shed 4 pounds off, if you can do more than dat, please tell me how on earth do you do tat!! anyhow, you know why. for an absolute fact that we are going to gain more pounds during the holiday season. who is silly enuf not to dine and wine during a holiday season. even lindsay lohan eats when she's off workin'.

The second valid reason we needs to reduce our weight is the fact that we want to wear all of our gud clothes when marching in and outside the hotel. come on! i do luv to purchase baju model aneh2 like the skirt ala balloon, then the shoes ala mini mouse, then sandals ala alibaba.. *you get the idea* but dont expect to see me in them down in this land of batagor . too embarassing. but when you speak of holiday, hellow carrie! so.. i'm just saying, i dun want to feel less than 100% when wearing my aneh2 outfits. *lagi gendut ahh ga berani pake yg terlalu ngepas.. bla bla bla*

number 3.. do pay your credit card bills before you take off. (tashkee, do i get an amen in this subject? haha) i mean, there's this one time, there were 7 of us goin to a cinema. i was not really close to sum of them at tat time, and becos i am the one who has the bunny, taz and batman cards, i offered them my card. for gudness sake, it was only the kind of discount from no-ban to ce-ban, my frens. and my cards were rejected for the total purchase of cit-ban rupiah. can i make my point any more clear? so, do pay your credit card bill before it ruins your reputation.

don't :
have a sudden attack of insomnia the night before you take off. the beauty industy has not invented a product that truly works for hiding our panda eyes. they dont look pretty for our holiday season. plus, sleeping on the plane and cars for long hours do not help. do sleep and wake up early on the hari H.

ha.. here's a quote from my gudfren mr. wiseman, who has quotted mr. garry (haha!), "dont bring sands to the beach" ("apaan tuh yan, bahasa loe ganteng bener?" i asked him) ituh artinya jangan bawa baju ke tempat loe bakalan shopping gila-gilaan. haha. wisdom or what.

who'eva bring tiny bags to holidays is just losing her mind. aint you gonna bring ur sisir, jaket and scarf, make-up bags for after landing, then sum entertainment like i-pod, magazines and journals and everything. but who'eva only brings one fat bag and not having a glossy tiny purse for partying later during the night is olso dobel dumb (i was!) i thought i was so smart to bring the biggest, most hip tote from home. i can tuck everything, practically everything there. but when it comes to late nite parties, my bag just wont do it. i ended up carrying my cell allnite, then all the cards, gloss and mascara in my back pocket. so not comfortable at all.

dont leave your paperworks at home. i agree that holiday is holiday. but, if something suddenly comes up, and you happened to leave all your contacts back home.. you'll be kebakaran jenggot (like i was) especially if ur personal assistant too has decided to take on a holiday and decided not to pik up your fone, damn u'll be kebakaran jenggot plus kebakaran other bulu2. so take all of your biz contacts and accounts, jus in case of emergency..

sum tings to be brought in ur handcarry...
  • flipflop alias sendal jepit.. i kno u wan to wear ur tallest manolo on holiday, but trust me even the softest shoes wont do your foot no gud when worn for longer than 5 hours max, so olweis change to ur flipflop whereever u are in plane or in cars. just to rest those pretty feet.
  • accesoriezz.. just in case u dun have time to go bak to the hotel and the acara is keep goin til dawn. jus to differentiate ur luk. one look is strictly for one occasion only. never look the same noon and nite. but dun make evry1 wait for you to change ur entire outfits, additional accessories and glam make-up will do the tricks just fine.
  • listerine, wax gel, perfume, facial wash and band aid, for gucci sake. ow, and dont forget tissue. this is indonesia, gudnes me.
begitudehh kira2nya yaaa... happy holz y'all/mwahz. ah btw, tat's moi in sydney fish market. now u know why i said u need to bring ur perfume everywhere.
