I had a very bad migraine today - I felt so reluctant to wake up this morning but I cant continue sleeping. I woke up at 5:55 in the morning (as hubby had to go work and I need to ready his breakfast), soon after he left I went to bed to continue my sleeping. It took me nearly 30minutes or so to get back to sleep. Suddenly I heard a very loud noise outside my bedroom window- a sound like thunder. When I look at the clock - Its only 7:30am. Well when you were in your deep sleep then suddenly like a blasting sounds hits you - its like my brain is waiting 5 seconds to figure out what is that first annoying noise injection as early as 7:30am in the morning. Reluctantly, I pulled myself out of bed and dragged my half-asleep body looking out from the window and outside I saw a bobcat was doing the job spreading the soils on our ground. I didnt expect that the job was taken as early as 7:30am in the morning. I knew that my parents-in-law need to transfer some of their garden soils to our front as they need to put fake lawn in their garden.
My sleep were spoilt and I forced myself to do the bed. No point of going back to sleep - the sounds of the bobcat was unbearable. I went to the bathroom with my eyes half closed - forcing myself to have my morning shower so that I will wake up fresh.
When done - i had my breakfast and start doing a bit of cleaning around the house, watching a bit of tv and at 10.30am - i hit the road to the Plaza. I told John last night that I want to watch movie this morning. I always want to watch "The confession of a shopaholic" - I have read the book by Sophie Kinsella - I bought it last month. It was very funny story! I cant stop laughing when I read the book - But I always want to read books first. Then I'd compare it with the movie. (Afterall, I was being influenced by Tumbleweed's story when she watched it with mum) so my curiousity getting even stronger.. So here goes my comparison between the book that I have read and the movie I have watched today.

Yeah as I said, the film is based on the popular books by Sophie Kinsella.
"The Confession of a shopaholic" stars by Isla Fischer as Rebecca Bloomwood a beautiful, young woman who is a compulsive spender. She dreams of working for a glamorous fashion magazine; instead she gets a job reporting for a financial publication, edited by Luke Brandon (Hugh Dancy). Becky is the kind of heroine that everyone at least most of us can identify with: Fun, friendly and engaging. But shopping, there is just no stopping this woman but because of her shopping addiction, she's constantly getting into messes. And the irony of the story is that young woman is a financial journalist, who ends up dishing out financial advice to readers. Hugh Dancy plays her boss, who takes a shine to her despite her obvious flaws.
The books are actually rather clever and in my opinion, it do not resemble the movie in any way, shape or form - except for the title and the names of the characters. I was curious about who is going to play the role for Tarquin? (the man that she dates in the book) - but there is no one playing that role in the movie.. but i dont blame the book. The book was not dumb; the movie however was the absolute the essence of dim-witted humour. I guess the author Sophie Kinsella is probably as embarrassed about the adaptation as I was..
After movie, I went straight home and at 2pm I received a package from civant care which I have ordered a week ago. I couldn't believe how quickly my products arrived and in great condition. I bought the product based on the reviews that Civant boasts on its website. I've got to say, I was quite impressed by the results that are shown on the site itself but I have to try it myself.
Here is the link:
Well I hope I dont have a little bit of "Becky Bloomwood" in myself... hehe. When Becky says 'moisturiser is a staple' stocking up on moisturisers is something I do all the time.
It is basic! Dont you think so? .. *wink*
