I developed an ipanema obsession. I wish someday I’ll visit Ipanema beach in Rio. I can’t stop listening to ipanema song for months now. And today I bought an ipanema flip-flop.
I’ve been eyeing on the flip-flop since 2007 but didn’t get a chance to own it. And now I’m back in KK- owning a good flip-flop is a must (at least, that’s what I thought). 
Bought the new Gisele’s seed collection’s Life in white/gold. I absolutely lovin’ it. Two words best describe the flip-flop: GORGEOUS and COMFY.
I was torn between the Life & Fern in turquoise flip-flop (Pic below). I love to get em’ both!
Aw.. perhaps, I shall get the turquoise next week? *wink wink*
Aw well, for now.. the flip-flop added to my mobile shoes collection. Yep, I have a whole of ikea box of shoes in my car boot. mwhahaha.
yes, (sigh)..shoes, girls.
IKEA step stool.
I love anything D.I.Y! This is what I assembled on sunday evening. weeee 
It took me 15 minutes to put everything into one piece, with the help of mommy of course.
Owh, and this is the second step stool i assembled; The first: my cousin’s.
Can’t wait to D.I.Y. bigger furniture! Will go to ikea and get bigger ones so I can D.I.Y!
It’s like playing Lego. Yipeeeee! (:
I am a hardcore fan of IKEA. I admit. I love their design. I LOVE all their home furnishing design. I wish there is IKEA store in KK. Wait! There is one store in Warisan Sq and 1Borneo selling IKEA products but they charge it unreasonably expensive. What is the point of having the IKEA concept of reducing cost etc when they charge it exorbitantly expensive for such when I know their price in KL. I feel like getting robbed buying from those shop.
My only hope is whenever I’m in KL for work trip/leisure, I never fail to visit IKEA AND buy stuff for the house. My recent visit to KL during graduation week, I bought heaps of stuff from IKEA.
I went to the store with my parents & they absolutely love the place. Daddy said, next visit we need not to stay in downtown KL. They wanted to stay at Royale Bintang. LOL. Just opposite IKEA, Curve, Cineleisure and IKANO. *Heaven*
I kinda envy people staying around Taman Tun, Bandar Utama & Damansara Perdana. They can just drive to this place anytime. *sigh*
I want to stay near to the area too *wishful thinking*. he,he.
Anyway, we had meatballs served with lingonberries and cream sauce and potatoes. *yummy*
Bought a kitchen step stool BEKVAM for mommy too as she’s been hinting so many time to me in my previous trip to KL. *LOL*
I bought a baby blue comfy IRMA throw. It is so comfy & dang cheap
and a scented vanilla and strawberry candle in glass TINDRA
oh wee! I will buy a condo in D’sara & furnished it with IKEA’s someday. *wishful thinking*
In the mean time, I’m just going to save, save & save!
Getting a decent monthly income will automatically entitled you to get a card. credit card to be exact. I am more than qualified to get one now but I refrain myself from getting one. Why? I don’t want to be in debt & I can’t control my spending.
But then, I need a card to make online purchases, book airline tickets, and etc which require a credit card. *sigh*
Instead of a credit card, I opt for a debit card. Purchases I made deducted straight from my account; paying with my own money & owe the bank nothing. Sounds like a good plan.
I applied Maybankcard Visa Debit months ago & I have been happily using it for swapping all over stores that carry Visa logo
Nice looking debit card. Cute. Very useful. I like. My lifesaver when I was in Labuan Airport. I booked ticket for my LBU-BKI flight last week prior to my KL graduation trip through Malaysia Airlines online booking. It was a time-out session booking & I got to call their 1-300 call centre to confirm the ticket booking. They said the flight confirmed & they shall send the itinerary to my email but until 5 hours before the flight, I have yet still to receive any email from them. I was pissed off. The MAS ticketing office in Labuan Airport said my payment was auto-reversed & I got to pay at the counter if I wanted to take that flight back to KK. I got no choice but I was running out of cash. They charged me 245MYR for a LBU-BKI and I only got 150MYR in my purse. Lucky there’s a debit card.
However, though Visa debit saved my life in Labuan, I can’t upgrade my flickr free account to pro. I need a Visa card that can be used for online transaction & verified by paypal. Maybank debit visa is not build for online purchases and withdrawal, yet. What a bummer. 
(I wonder.. If it can’t be used for online purchases and withdrawal, it can’t be called a debit card then? Perhaps the right term would be electronic ATM? hmmm but it still deducted from you bank account, so.. )
Again, when these things happened, I start doing a research on which is a good card *debit card ahem* to apply for my second card. I’m hoping I can get a debit card with a mastercard logo this time.
At first, I wanted to apply PB Visa Electron Debit Card but then I decided not to. Though there are so many good review on the card but I personally feel it’s not good for me. Why?
1. It’s yellow. ew. Not that I hate yellow but it doesn’t look attractive. Mwhahahaha.
2. Annual fees as compared to Maybank Visa *which is FOC*
3. other reasons which I’m too lazy to jot it down here.
I was thinking of getting IKEA card too as it offers good bargain for purchases I made in IKEA. I do spend A LOT when I visited IKEA store but hey, IKEA Mutiara Damansara is 2 hours and a half away from my house. So, a cup of Swedish coffee/tea at 50% off and discounted swedish meal (meatballs!) doesn’t apply to me everyday. *sigh* and how am I gonna accumulate points when I visit their store once in say, 3 months? oh anyway, it is a IKEA Friends Loyalty Payment Card.
After hours of reading review from various blogs/forums/bank websites/etc, I’ve decided to get a Tune Visa card. It is a prepaid card where you need to top-up in order to use the card. And it is paypal-friendly. LOL.
I don’t have to worry getting over-spending my kaching straight from the account & it’s RED.
Nice card! I will collect my TUNE card at Likas Post Office in 10 days time.
weeeeeee!
