I went looking for accessories such as necklace or earings or bangles to match my dress for someone's wedding dinner last week. It took me a few days going through almost all the shops or small setup stalls in the shopping mall where I worked, and I couldn't bring myself to buy any of what I saw being sold there. Mind you, the shopping mall that I went is not small, it is a mega mall. Anyway, I ended up with not buying any.
So, why is it so hard for me to buy any sorts of accessories here these days? Simply because all I see is the same. They have got quite similar designs and seeing almost the same thing over and over again from one shop to another is just so boring. Wasted my time browsing through the shops one by one too. How I wish I would have thought shopping online in the first place?
Yeah, why not shop for jewellery and all sorts of accessories online? It is very much simpler and hassle free. Don't even have to pay for parking tickets anywhere or waste time stucked in the traffic jams. I wish I have got lots of money to spend on jewellery as well as cloths. After all, girls could not live without those items. Focusing jewellery alone, are diamonds still a girl's best friend? Well, I personally thinks it was just a marketing gimmick that they used since the long time ago to attract buyers to purchase diamonds because it's expensive and high in profits.
No doubt, diamonds are still very popular choices for weddings and the wealthy society, but more and more people are looking towards something more out of the ordinary. You can see people wearing silver jewellery and still looks posh and stylist these days. With carefully chosen designed, it will look really good and you can even buy it online.
I wished I could have bought some designer jewellery for my sister as her wedding gift if I could afford it. There are many online shopping websites that sells designer jewellery. Finding one which sells anything but ordinary is not easy. For such unique and out of ordinary designed jewellery, you can find it at AstleyClarke.com. You can find some of the most stunning precious and semi-precious designer jewellery from New York, London, Milan, Paris and India. They even have gift sets and special collections to choose from.

Who said only human know what is love
The real story starts here..... (sorry about the bad quality pictures)
Yes, animals are more deluded because of their capacity of their physical body, but occasionally some of them might be able show us the love that we have forgotten on
our 'busy road'. Just like this story.
this is real touching…Hey, wake up! wake up!
A dog was knocked down by a car and died on the middle of the road. Later, another dog is seen beside the corpse of the dog, he tried to wake his friend up using his leg.Let's move to the safer side of the road...i will move you to the safer side!
When his attempts to wake his friend failed, he tried to push his friend to the side of the road. But the weight of his friend was proven too heavy for him.Anyone help, tell me what to do.
Though the traffic is busy and dangerous, he just will not go away from his friend. Just stand beside his friend howling and crying.
A lot of people saw this incident and feel very touched. How even a dog can show his loyalty and love to his friend.

My ideal contact lense
I first started wearing glasses when I was 16 years old. Back then I just treat it as my reading glasses. But later on my vision gets worst which it often the case when you are still schooling. So, I decided to get a contact lenses instead of wearing the ugly glasses all the time. I first started wearing soft lense contact lenses when I was 18-19 years old in college. And my first pair is a brand called Sequence by Bausch & Lomb. I felt very comfortable wearing it even on my first time. And I have been buying that brand of contact lenses ever since.
Later on, after 6-7 years of using Sequence, it was bought over by Acuvue by Johnson & Johnson. Bah... I was devastated as I have tried Acuvue before and I was feeling very uncomfortable wearing their contact lenses. I went to many optical shops and everyone said that Acuvue is the same as Sequence. So, I bought a box of Acuview clear which could last me for 3 months of supply. The moment I put it on, I can feel the discomfort unlike with the old Sequence brand that I couldn't feel there's anything inside my eyes.
After that, I tried another brand called AMO Complete Aquavision. That too, it wasn't suitable for my eyes. Same as Acuvue, I kept having blur vision and it makes my eyes really dry. No doubt both brands indicated that they have high content of water and it is thinly shaped that makes wearing it very comfortably and very suitable for everyone. But I found it to be the exact opposite. I bear with it until it finished.
So, after bearing all the discomfort for about 1 year, I decided not to buy any of those 2 brands even though it was recommended by the optician/sales person form optical shops. I made it a point this time when I shop for contact lenses again, I will make sure they recommend me other brands. And that's just what happen a few weeks back. There's this optical shop I went to near my work place who recommended me Softlens 38 Contact Lenses by Bausch& Lomb. And also recommended me another brand called O2 Optix which is too pricey for me. So, I bought Softlens 38. I have not been disappointed ever since I started wearing Softlens 38. It just feel so comfortable and easy to put on just like the first brand that I love. So, I am happy again to have found my ideal contact lense after all these while of agony.If you haven't found your ideal pair of contact lenses, don't give up. Keep trying and one day you find the right one for your eyes.

So cold in the office these days...
Oh! It’s so cold here in the office now a days. The gloomy weather making the air-condition in the office cooler than usual. At the place where I am sitting right now, there isn’t many other colleagues that sits around me, hence the air here often felt cooler than the rest of the office are that has more people in it.
Well, it’s a centralized air-condition in my office building, I cannot do anything about it except cocooning myself with a jacket! Even though with a jacket, I still feel that it is too cold here. Especially when I was wearing skirt to work. So, I wear long pants to work as often as I could with this kind of cool, rainy weather. But anyway, I prefer feeling cold than being steamed up in a hot oven!

The Gingham Dress
Here's a story that I would like to share with everyone. It teaches us to be humble and not to judge a book by it's cover. It is a very short true story by Malcolm Forbes. It's really an interesting read. Read on.....
A lady in a faded gingham dress and her husband, dressed in a homespun threadbare suit, stepped off the train in Boston, and walked timidly without an appointment into the Harvard University President's outer office.
The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard & probably didn't even deserve to be in Cambridge.
"We'd like to see the president," the man said softly.
"He'll be busy all day," the secretary snapped.
"We'll wait," the lady replied.
For hours the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't, and the secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president, even though it was a chore she always regretted.
"Maybe if you see them for a few minutes, they'll leave," she said to him!
He sighed in exasperation and nodded. Someone of his importance obviously didn't have the time to spend with them, and he detested gingham dresses and homespun suits cluttering up his outer office.
The president, stern faced and with dignity, strutted toward the couple. The lady told him, "We had a son who attended Harvard for one year.
He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus."
The president wasn't touched. He was shocked. "Madam," he said, gruffly, "we can't put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery."
"Oh, no," the lady explained quickly. "We don't want to erect a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard."
The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, then exclaimed, "A building! Do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical buildings here at Harvard."
For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. Maybe he could get rid of them now.
The lady turned to her husband and said quietly, "Is that all it costs to start a university? Why don't we just start our own?"
Her husband nodded. The president's face wilted in confusion and bewilderment. Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford got up and walked away, traveling to Palo Alto, California where they established the university that bears their name, Stanford University, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.
You can easily judge the character of others by how they treat those who they think can do nothing for them.

Thinking of buying insurance?
Having an insurance policy, no matter what type of policy that we hold is a normal thing now. Unlike some 20 or 30 years ago, many people still does not believe in purchasing insurance. And not many know the importance of having insurance compare to today’s society. Thanks to the hard work of the dedicated Insurance Agents around the world, who unfailingly provide you with the long lectures on the benefits of having insurance.
Most people would have at least one type of insurance policy in their life time. The most common ones is the car insurance policy. Accident happens anytime and everywhere while you were driving because automobile vehicles on the road are increasing in numbers every year. You have got to have insurance coverage for your car especially if your car is an expensive car to ease off your burden of paying for an accidental mishap. Not to mention, total loss of your vehicle when it was stolen. You will get back some of your return with the insurance that you have.
There is a type of insurance policy which I believe not many have it. It is home insurance policy. Well, it is quite important to have your home items, especially the expensive ones protected by home insurance incase of burglary or house fire occurs and you lost your valuables.
If you have intention of buying insurance, you probably will find it a hassle in finding the information that you need for the big decision you are about to make. You can look through the information that you need on the website like NationsFinance.co.uk that can help you find cheap car insurance, or travel insurance, or even pet insurance.
