When I was working for a shipping line at Wisma Consplant in Subang Jaya many years ago, there were many a times when I felt like my spirits were gone and my mood was darker than the skies in the darkest night. I worked as Sales Executive. I hardly speak ill to any salesperson since then but my real self reemerge again here.
Whenever I felt down at that time, I would cross the road to Subang Parade. And I would shop. I didn’t earn very much back then but nevertheless I would just buy a pretty thing (s) for myself and instantly my body temperature would rise from that of an amphibian to that of an Angelina Jolie.
SHOPPING MAKES ME HAPPY!
Who doesn’t agree with me needs to get her/his head checked. Must be tumor or saka. Of a very depressed hantu raya.
Last Sunday I felt the euphoria again. I was not feeling bad at all in fact I was feeling good. But I came across some fliers in my mail box and one of them is an advertisement of a lights shop. So I dragged my two favorite boys there and spent just half an hour but damaging enough to Azman’s pocket that I picked up five items in one go.
AND IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY!
Happier than buying shoes, happier than buying bags. I am a makcik. I buy household items not beauty items. Next I am going to buy Corningwear. Are you with me makcik-makcik yang lain?
These are the lights that I bought. They are nothing to be proud of la… They are the CHEAPEST at the store. But since I ukur baju di badan sendiri bukan badan Kim Kardashian (akan longgar di bahagian bonbon nanti) I think these are so nice already for our humble old house. Azman bought them with his hard earn money so Miki must say thanks to Daddy, kalau tak susah ko nak conteng dinding dalam gelap nanti!
Ceiling fixtures
I bought two sets of lights on the first photo for my kitchen. Very simple but I like them. They have these adjustable neck thingy so I can direct them to parts of the kitchen cabinets where I keep my most prized tableware –Tupperware! Erkkk??!
The second one is the oval hanging three botakheads. I think they are cute and they are also very popular you see them everywhere! I was thinking I wanna hang them at my stairway but the ceiling there is very high right? Would be pretty tricky so maybe I used it in one of the bedrooms.
For as long as I can remember I have always liked Secret Recipe’s black chandeliers. So when I saw this Black Mystic Chrystal Chandelier at the shop, I immediately know that I want it! Although Secret Recipe’s are like twice bigger in size and in cost than this but I still like it very much. I know where I am gonna hang this – our master bedroom. Coolness!
Chandeliers
The last one has a nice name- Shaded Crystal Pendant Light. I bought this solely under the influence of another botakhead – Eric Leong. He used similar at Deko Bersama Eric Season 2 Episode 11. ( Tu diahh hafal satu persatu!!). I think it is modern looking and very pretty because of the flower motif. But I have a problem now, I don’t know which room I am going to use it. I want a retro dining room so this can’t do it. Maybe upstairs living room. I still have not the slightest idea what to do with that room.
So these are the lampus that make Makcik Di very happy. Meanwhile, i still need to find the right chandelier for my living room and another simple lightings for my entryway. Same goes for Miki’s room and patio and balcony.Kopakkkk wallet!
Anyway…to all home owners and interior deco enthusiasts – happy decorating bersama Makcik Di with fancy lightings! Weeee~~~
