+ mat up +

Livejournal really eff-ed me UP last night during my launch time. Eff. with such a large collection I had prepared the post in advance, uploaded and arranged the pictures nicely, descriptions, updated the categories accordingly..

And at bloody 8pm, all our painstakingly uploaded photos went missing, together with all the active tabs.
My frustration was multiplied cos I had emailed LJ some time ago to feedback on the instability of their systems and how they are affecting BSs in Singapore. Ironically, we are paying them a monthly sum for our journals, but its basic functions failed while we could blog with ease on free platforms like blogger.
And they promised me that their engineers are placing the issue on top priority.

While i hold little faith in corporate promises, I didnt expect it to fail that badly this time round. And I could only helplessly submit support requests, conveying my disappointment. and frantically uploading the collection on facebook and sending notifications to mailing listees, replying email enquiries from those who did check our site and could see nothing.

That was when I had enough- I dont think my work principles allow me to be tHAT helpless about my own business & operations.

So I discussed with Dan and we are going to move to an e-shopping platform. Yes, with a shopping cart and everything on a stable supported platform.
Shall be using the month of July to do it, since I am planning to take a few weeks hiatus while waiting for our first manufactured pieces to be ready, hopefully by end July.

Its gonna be a lot of learning struggles for me cos i have close to nil computing and web set-up knowledge. Downloaded articles to study how about doing it, and I had to read it at least twice before i can even briefly comprehend the contents. Never felt stupider since studying molecular structure and sound waves.

So hopefully, 2 exciting things will take place on my shop in a months time.. Pls pray for me!

On a happier note,

Wore my Trapezium Lampshade skirt, in electric blue today!
to town for rubber stamp searching (failed), phone zhnging (succeeded), n catchup session


I opted to pair it with all-black, instead of colour blocking it. No whys, just another option open.
Saw it as a brightening touch to an otherwise all-black outfit

I love the cut, hips flattering. hide my flabbee blabee hips!

Notice the navy-stripe naraya pouch on my princess chair? its from dearest Bunny! I love it loads and its FULL OF FALSIES.. woo! also from her!



Get it in TEAL too!

I finally met up with my JC burst out laughing gang!
it was partially my bad as I didnt make it for the past outing. WHAT WAS I THINKING staying back late at work and giving up on fun times with them?

I have not seen them since Eras, mine and Huiqi's wedding.
though we are that shallow to only meet during weddings, once a year, but when we do see each other it really does not feel like we have not met for long.
Crap spews out of our mouths as greetings the second we met..

Contents of catch-up

1st half - Jokes about how rich Clement is. This went on for more than an hour i think. how many flats in Singapore need upgrading to get lifts but he already has lifts in his mansion, but still wanna upgrade dunno what. Automated ktv system in his house. Possibility of us being employed as valets if he starts selling season parking tickets to staff at mediacorp. next session is resort life at his palace so ya, wait for the pics, WAIT. thats how rich he is.

2nd half - Politics. Fengshan CC. MRT woes vs the economy debate. Ang Mo kio Pig. Shrek. Some gal whose bf bought a mini for her. Yes, from the intellectual talk to gossip.
