Unfathomable Feelings
Almost everybody who knew that I am leaving tomorrow for OZ, asked me if I am excited. And my usual answer is, I dont know. Yeah, right! Am I for real? Well, I just really cant understand how I feel. If I know, I would say it.How do I really feel? Just normal. I am not cramming for to dos in the office, knowing that I will be away for a long time, neither for packing my things and leaving everything...
Final Template
----- This post superceeds the previous one. ----- For a typical fickle-minded woman, sometimes its hard to choose from one thing to another. Another laborous story to stay with the chosen one for a long time. There's always an aspiration of wanting something different and new.Now! I have settled to another template. No more solid and loud colors and very simple. It is tireless to stare at. That's...

Total Make-over...
Like my friend Dangkin, I got tired of earlier color of my blog. Yeah, I like pink but it was too bright that it hurt my eyes. Plus, I customized it adding lots of stuff that looks chaotic. And so I decided to have a total make-over while chatting to My CJ.I chose my current style as it dont have variety of colors. Very simple. Plus I dont like the borders at both sides. Made my blog look small. Hehehe....

charges for missed calls
