cleaning out my closet

It’s already 21^st January 2011.
And my pants are still a little tight.
*sighs dramatically*

I have a SERIES of events to look forward to from next week onwards. And every night, I lay on my bed wondering what could I wear without looking like a pumpkin. Or a mommy pig about to give birth to 10 little piglets.
*sighs dramatically again*

Since when am I so concerned with my looks? Bah, I’ll be 33 in less than a month, so if not now, when again kan? When I’m 66? *LOL*

Nay, I don’t mind getting older and I have GOOD FEELING that this year would be a FANTASTIC year. Kan double digit juga ‘11’. And so far, very good. *woohoo*

Anyways, back to my nightly frets.

You know how sometimes you buy something really nice and save it for special occasion only? I learned this the hard way despite the many sobbing stories I read in the Chicken Soup for The Soul or other inspirational stories. My favourite favourite perfume which I saved for special special occasion died when I was unpacking my stuffs during the ‘move back home’ the other day. Then I realized the many other things I bought but never used, so this year, this one habit will stop and I am starting with all the unused dresses, tops and make-ups that I have.

It’s kinda funny. With my collections of eye shadows and lipsticks, you would think I am a makeup artist or those who wears makeup almost 24/7. Truth is, I only colour my face when I have a big event or function to attend. Trust you me, if I could show up bare-faced at the office, I would too.

Those pretty colours are just too irresistible. I swear one time I could hear the gorgeous shimmering gold eye shadow, which I have never used spoke to me. “You need me. I’ll make your eyes pop and beautiful; you’d feel and look sex-xy”.

And where can I wear the gorgeous shimmering gold eye shadow? I shall find an occasion to wear this year. Even if I have to use it when I do my grocery shopping at Servay.

I also have many of those ‘clothes I would wear after I lose the weight’ which of course never happened. *head hangs in shame* Some I just don’t wear because, again, no special reason to. But again, if I have to I will wear it with the gold eye shadow when I go Servay.

This weekend, I must do something about my organized mess. Instead of buying more containers/shelves, it is time to get rid the things I don’t really need. And that include those negative people around me.

Seriously, why would I want to be around people who ask me silly questions like “Are you still fat?”
