Secretarial Duties


What do you think of my Lisa Loeb tortoise shell glasses? Very groovy, if I might say so! Haha! Yes, Friends, I do wear prescription contact lenses, but today I have a little problem with my eyes, so I just give them a rest from the contacts and wore glasses instead.

I received various comments from my colleagues about my glasses look. Some say I look like a sexy secretary, some said I look like an edgy headmistress, a stylish librarian, a nerdy gal, etc. Well, there are a lot of men in my office and they like to tease us girls a lot. I know they don't have any malicious intentions, just harmless teasing, so I just laughed and didn't mind at all.
But really, sometimes wearing contact lenses can be a pain in the *ss. I wear glasses at home so my eyes can rest, and it can be annoying when suddenly I have to go out and drive and am in a rush, and yet I have to put on contacts first! Glasses are heavy so I don't like wearing them when I'm going out. Also, as much as I want to wear tinted lenses, it's not an option because they are thicker and hurt my eyes if I wear them for more than several hours. (No, I don't intend to change the color of my eyes or anything, I'm thankful for the eye color that God has given me, but you know, sometimes a girl just want to have a little fun makeover!)
I've been thinking about lasic surgery, but the word surgery gives me the chill, so I'm still not up to it until now. Have any of you had experience having eye lasic surgery? Please share with me if you have, Friends! It's something that I'd really really want to do in the future!
Anyway, the shirt I'm wearing is actually quite baggy, but I cinch it at the waist with this obi-like hot pink belt that I made myself. I layered underneath with a scooped neck top that has lace detailing because I love how the lace peek through at the neck/upper chest area.
Overall, just a simple corporate look to face today's office duties!

Btw, Friends, holiday will start soon and I'm not sure I'll have time for blogging in the middle of all the happy-frenzy-crazy time. So, just in case this would be my last post of 2011, let me wish you all

Merry Christmas 2011 and Happy New Year 2012!
Hurrayyy!!!

Hey you know what? I think you actually look better with glasses! ^_^ It's younger too. But I get what you mean... Heavy, slides down your nose, fogs in air cond, gets wet in rain.. URGH!

Isabel said...

Oh and I saw you commenting about those MBD masks. you can get them from the pharmacies/drugstores in Penang. Should be about RM 5 each or RM 50 / box

Mimi said...

RE: i like that 'muluk2' term hehehe..
and about the 'next dreams'.. in my own defence, i come from a family where on one side, very ambitious.. and the other side, santai2 go-with-the-flow.. and from that ambitious side, I know that those family members always have some sort of big dream in their head.. once they reach it, they always have some other dream even I cant think of.. on the other hand, the nyantai2 side of my fam.. once they reach their dream, they're simply happy with it and they just feel blessed for having to achieve the dream..

so i guess this dream thing is just relative for each individual.. as for me, I think I'm a mix of both of my family sides :D .. **just exchanging opinions ;D**

The outfit is smoking, I must remember to add pink to my black/white outfits. I too wear glasses. I finally gave up on contacts and have put up with the slipping/fogging nuisance but feel better about it after a friend who had had laser surgery had difficulties with cataract surgery because of the laser surgery. I know it is a long way down the road for you, but it gave me pause. Glasses, I can just slip off.
