No Direction

I told a friend that when I was caring for my ill dog, I was fantasizing about the places I wanted to visit and the many things that I wanted to do. However, now that I am free from that responsibility, I find that I don't know where to begin. Frankly speaking, I don't have a direction.

My friend told me that if I have a take a step back, I should. There is no harm going back to school if it's necessary, for instance. I think that at my age and after all the things that I have gone through, I cannot adapt to campus life anymore. In fact, I don't think I can face books, either.

I am thinking of picking up a skill, like cosmetology, for instance. My sister is very encouraging and recommends a well-known Virginia Cosmetology School. Still, I don't know if I could just leave everything behind and take up a new challenge in a new place. Sometimes I wonder if I am too old for that.

Doing Away With Subsidies... Or Not

Recently, there is a hotly debated topic about reducing subsidies for the Rakyat over the next five years or in nine years, Malaysia will be bankrupt like Greece. The Government has promised to listen to the people and even held a open day forum in KL Convention Centre recently. I was not in KL that day or I too would have made my way there.

Frankly, as a middle class family, I do not see how we could cope if things become even more expensive than they already are. We are stretching the Ringgit as much as possible and although I would say that we are coping quite well now, this is only because we rarely eat out, we do not have a refrigerator, a washing machine or an air-conditioner. My friends think that my family is rather weird but I don't care. I am the one paying the bills every month. Not them.

Now, the Government has also said that if we are not agreeable to the reduction of subsidies, they are willing to listen and they are also open to solutions and feedback that we may offer. The solution is pretty simple, actually.

Why don't wastage be reduced from the top down and top ranking public servants get a pay cut from next month onwards? These people are already using tax payers' money to support their lifestyle from free car to free accommodation. Why add to the burden of the Rakyat?

With the impending increase in fuel prices and implementation of some stupid, senseless laws like the end of life for vehicles above a certain number of years, I can just envision that some years in the future, only extremely rich Malaysians can afford to own cars.

Long Lost Cousin

Since my grandmother passed away a few years ago, I don't have an opportunity to meet my cousins anymore. Previously, we only get to meet each other two to three times a year but now, not even once. They live overseas, you see, and air fare is still quite expensive!

However, last week, a cousin came back to visit her mother for ten days. Her mother was very sick, still is, in fact, so she flew in from London with her husband. Even my aunt had not seen her daughter since 2003!

My cousin sister looked quite stunning now. I guess living overseas where the weather is so different, suits her well. She also had plenty of weight loss success stories to share with us. I joked that with the number of weight loss products that she tried, some worked and some didn't, she could write a book! It's too bad that she didn't tell her brother all these. He spent a few thousand dollars enrolling in a slimming center without success!

Effective Eczema Treatment

A friend confessed recently that she is suffering from eczema; has been for almost ten years. I wonder why I never suspected it. Eczema is not a "serious" disease but it is actually a very stubborn skin condition. I am not sure if anyone was cured completely of eczema before but I understand that one could keep in under control fairly well.

This friend explained that her eczema only acts up in certain weather conditions but the extreme itch could be a real nuisance. She said that she has tried a wide range of treatments already but could never fully arrest it. Right now, she is trying a herbal eczema treatment and hopes that it will be THE CURE.

Listening to her description of eczema makes my acne problem seem minor. I don't find joy walking around with big volcanoes on my face but at least they are not itchy or painful.

10,000 Free Seats To Bangkok From AirAsia

Gosh, if you have been following my blog, you would know that I almost booked a trip to Bangkok for next year. Thank god I did not! AirAsia is offering 10,000 free seats to Bangkok and the promotion will begin on Wesak Day, 28th May, 2010, until all seats have been snapped up. As with all AirAsia promotions, there is specific travel period. This one is from 7th June 7 to 31st August.

According to news report, this is AirAsia's effort to help revive tourism in Bangkok specifically, and Thailand in general, after political unrest in recent months that climaxed to the burning down of Central World.

Although I am so tempted to book my tickets, this promotion doesn't seem to have come at the right time for me because of the car I just bought and my Singapore holiday next month which will not be as cheap anymore because of the fall in Ringgit.

But then like my sister says, there will never be a "right time" for anything. Just do it if I want to. Oh yes, it's easy for her to say!

Crash Diet

My friend, who will finally be getting married this weekend, is going on a crash diet. He was very proud to let me know that he is not eating any solid food at all but just drinking juice and water. I don't know if he's taking apidexin too because he did discuss it with me earlier but he seems to think that his super diet is working very well.

I told him not to torture himself so badly because it would be awful if he fainted at his own wedding reception. Guests would think that he is more nervous than the bride! Well, I personally think that he really is!

I also reminded him that the reason he is getting married already means that his bride accepts him as he is, slim or fat. And there is no point changing his physical look at the last minute unless it's because of health reasons.

Extra Luggage Bags

I have a friend who likes to tease me about my "extra luggage bags" which are actually my heavy eye bags. Well, what could I do when I don't get enough rest at night? Well, perhaps I could cut down on my dramas .....

I know that I should change my lifestyle. I wish I could. All these late nights aren't good for my health and they are wrecking havoc on my complexion. As a matter of fact, I am sporting a huge zit on my nose right now.

I don't really care about my appearance but I think that I should start to before my looks totally fall apart. The first thing I am doing is to start researching on the best eye cream for dark circles available in the market today. I can just imagine how it will help eliminate my two eye bags. Hah... then my friend would surely have to keep her mouth shut about my extra luggage bags!

My Aunt’s Test Results Are Out

It is so weird. My aunt, who went for a full medical check up in University Hospital (now Universiti Hospital Medical Centre) in the first week of May, received her test results yesterday and apparently, there is NOTHING wrong with her. No cancer or other diseases.

This is so weird because this is totally different from the blood test results that my aunt took in Ipoh prior to her trip to UMCC, hence the urgency,where cancer markers show that her cancer is back. The doctor in Ipoh was also worried that cancer may have spread to her lungs.

Now the doctors in UMCC are telling her that she is fine, there is nothing to show in her test results but she should still go for her scheduled CAT scan in early June, but only as an outpatient. How come there is such a huge difference in the blood test results?

My father thinks that either the blood sample in Ipoh or in PJ was marked wrongly and it looks like the only way to determine which is the correct one is to take yet another full blood profile.

Am I Sleeping Too Much?

My friend thinks there is something wrong with me because he says that I sleep too much. I think I'm fine even though I sleep at various times of the day. It is because I cannot get a good night's rest so it is only normal that I try to get whatever sleep that I can get throughout the day.

This friend recommends hgh supplement which he says is very effective and he feels like a new person since taking this supplement. While I do not think that I am in need of HGH supplements, he says there is no harm trying.

Oh well! Let me see how things go when I am able to get a full night's rest! Perhaps I wouldn't even need my afternoon naps!

Looking For A Part Time Job

I have been looking for a apart time job this past month and have not been successful. I found a full time job, actually, but the location is far from civilization and the hours are long. I don't really mind long hours but that effectively means that I would not be able to do my own work.

One of the reasons that I have not been able to look for a suitable job, besides the fact that it's currently an employer's market, is the fact that I do not have paper qualifications. If I did, I would be able to secure the best jobs in philly. I think it's too late to play catch up now though I still harbor hopes of taking up a skilled course.

I have asked friends to look out for part time opportunities for me; hopefully, there is some positive news soon! In any case, I would only be able to start work after my holidays next month.

Korean Dream

I had the strangest dream last night even by my own standards. If you had read my blog from the beginning, you would have read about some of the weird dreams that I recall enough to share on my blog.

I know that I watched too many Korean dramas and visiting Korea is certainly a dream. Actually, a friend of mine is now based in Korea and will be there for two years. he has invited me to visit Korea while he is there and food and lodging will be on him. After all, his company has leased out a 3-bedroom apartment for him.

Anyway, back to the dream, I went to Korea with a friend and we booked a room at a hill resort that also has a temple. After our lunch, we got separated and so I thought I would climb up the stairs and return to our room. It was a difficult climb and in my dream, I was wondering if my friend would face difficulty taking the stairs too because of the poor condition of his heart.

Long story short, I lost my way and somehow, wondered into the backyard of the temple where a wake was in procession. I am a very superstitious person and while some people think that it's good luck to dream of funerals in certain circumstances, I think they are all bad. You can bet I jumped out of bed instantly!

Not On The Road Yet

My father doesn't allow me to drive out on the road yet and has asked me to practise driving the car in a controlled environment until I am comfortable with it. Like I said, he likens my driving to dragon dancing, which I think he exaggerates. Perhaps it is because he has sat behind the wheels for so long, sitting on the passenger seat feels a little weird and out of control for him.

I know that I have to be more competent driving before going on the road. I don't want to be involve in a crash and it would be horrible to injure or worse, kill someone. If the accident victim has fort Worth Personal Injury Lawyers, then I am finished.

Anyway, I can’t drive for too long at a stretch because of my joint pains. I overtaxed my joints by squatting too much while nursing Snoopy.

Relearning To Drive

I am trying to learn to drive a car again now that I have my own car. It has been years since I sat behind the wheels. Although I did not learn to drive and take my driving test as soon as I turned 16 years old, I did sit for my driving test a few years later. But even though I passed my highway code and on the road tests without a problem, I was not able to drive soon after getting my driving license.

I couldn't drive my father's car because it was difficult to handle for me. Moreover, I always had this fear that I would wreck it and my father would end up not only not having the use of the car, but also poorer by a few hundred bucks, or even thousands.

Now that I have my own smaller car, I can drive it as and when I like, only after I am competent to be on the road with it. This doesn't mean that I will be wrecking it on purpose but at least if something goes wrong that causes the car to be hospitalized, at least I only have myself to blame.

Even though I do have my driving license, because it has been such a long time, I am very rusty driving a car. I know that people say that once you know how, you know how automatically. Well, I guess it is because of the short period of time that I drove a car, I didn't have the know-how ingrained in me yet.

So right now, I am learning about an hour a day with my father sitting next to me, just like a learner driver. I don't mind learning again but I hope that I will graduate under my father soon. Right now, he says that I handle the car as if I am dragon dancing. Errrkkk!

Singapore Holiday Budget Kaput

I am “broke”. This has been a pretty bad month income wise and I spent a considerable fortune buying a used car and forked out even more money repairing it. The total amount that I spent may not be a huge sum to others but to me, it is a small fortune.

Next month, I will be visiting Johor Bahru, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur and will be spending almost ten days on the road. Well, I love to go on holiday but when I think of the expenses, I cringe. I have never been this extravagant!

It's funny that when I was busy with work, I was thinking of my vacations but now that I am not as busy and have the time to enjoy myself during my vacations, I do not have the financial freedom anymore.

I guess in life, we can never always have the cake and eat it too.

One Month In Bali

My friends all think that I am crazy to want to spend one month in Bali. I don't think I'm crazy. it's just that my work is flexible enough to allows me this freedom. However, I do think it will be odd to go on a Bali holiday by myself but then who has the same flexible work hours to accompany me?

I guess if I have a holiday home in Costa Rica's Tamarindo Real Estate by the beach, then people wouldn't mind coming along with me on my Costa Rican vacation. With Bali, they will have to split the accommodation expenses with me and one month is not a short time!

I guess I will just have to stop thinking about holidays as long as this and just opt for 4d/3n vacations like most people. It would be easier to look for travel mates!

RM0 Air Asia Promo Is ON

Oh yes, the long awaited Air Asia RM0 air ticket promotion is ON. I so would like to book my tickets but as someone who lives one day at a time, I cannot plan that far ahead.

Besides, I have spent quite a bit of money these past few months from my 9-day road trip at the end of March, to the purchase of a used car, old it may be but it still cost me a small fortune, and then there is my impending Singapore holiday next month. My time in Singapore is "only" four days but in total, I will be on the road for about nine or 10 days.

And then this month has been one of the least productive of all over the past few years, where I went to Petaling Jaya in the first week and Sungai Petani in the second week, hence there was too much down time which naturally affects my income.

Of all the cities that Air Asia is offering to fly us to at RM0, while I have many places that I would like to visit, the one at the top of my priority list is Bangkok but at this moment, we don't even know how the political situation will be like next year from January to May.

I did, however, check ticket prices from LCCT to Bangkok and it is RM190 one way. It is only slightly cheaper as a friend told me that he usually spends RM300 one day to Bangkok. Oh well, I guess I will have to give this a pass since I plan to rent a room in Kuala Lumpur and that would require some money too. SIGH, I better buck up and earn more!

Credit Counseling Needed

My cousin is really hopeless. I say so even though he is older than I am and shouldn't be disrespectful but then respect is earned and not given. Recently, the family had to pool their savings to help him settle an old credit card debt because he was no longer about to take the pressure of being chased for payment. The amount is not big but it pains me to see how his parents used their life savings on something like this.

I understand that my cousin still owes a few banks no thanks to the way he abused and misused his credit cards over the years. I think that credit card consolidation would help him but he says that he can manage. I don't think so, when his repayment of interests alone exceeds his income.

Frankly, I think he's in desperate need of credit counseling but the thing is that he doesn't admit that he has a problem. It is so difficult to make him see that this is not the way to manage his finances, even though he is a manager and drawing quite a big paycheck every month. Actually, I don't really care about him or the trouble he has gotten himself into but like I said, I pity his parents, who are illiterate and doesn't understand what's going on except that their son "owes the bank money".

I am trying to look for a consumer credit counseling service that my cousin could enroll in and hopefully, he can open up his mind to the new ways to manage his finances, particularly his credit card debt. I feel that this is the best I could do for him.

Club Tracks

When I was younger, I loved listening to club music from House to Electronica and other of the same genre. It has been such a long time since I listened to any of these music tracks because I have been busy with drama soundtracks from TVB to Korean dramas but after playing the game Night Club City on Facebook, I rediscovered my love for club tracks once again.

Of course, I am already out of touch with the latest hits and remixes but like I said, thanks to Night Club City, I am reintroduced to them. This is an aspect of me that a lot of friends do not know of! When I told a close friend about it, he was surprised. He thought that I don't like such music because I do not go clubbing.

Hey, one does not need to go clubbing just because she likes to listen to these songs right? And just because I don't go clubbing doesn't mean that I am not able to bop my head to the beats, right? I told my friend that I can "whet" too, but at home by myself.

Singapore Shopping Plans

The week I will be in Singapore in the middle of June is during the Great Singapore Sale 2010! While it will be a good time to see if the prices are really low, I don't have anything in particular to buy. I have to think of the weight bearing down on me when I travel home each time I am tempted to make a purchase!

However, I did ask my friend who is based in Johor, if he has any idea what I should look out for that's not available here in Malaysia. He told me that it would be a good opportunity to check out Victoria's Secret lingerie in Resorts World Sentosa as the VS store is the first in Asia. That actually surprised me as I thought that I saw Victoria's Secret when I was in KLCC but I think I may have mixed up Inner Secrets with Victoria's Secret. LOL

Anyway, I am not sure if I will check out lingerie in Resorts World Sentosa. I am sure there are better attractions there!

University Hospital, PJ

My mother and I escorted my aunt to university Hospital last week; as I mentioned in an earlier post, she was so sick, the doctors in Ipoh wrongly diagnosed her illness from stones in the gall to cancer in the heart. All these didn't help help her disposition at all. Like my uncle said, if the illness doesn't kill her, the fright would.

The three of us took an express down to KL and my uncle, who is based in KL, asked his driver to pick us up. Then we went to his house to freshen up and have lunch before proceeding to University Hospital. It was a long wait at the lobby for me but it was fine for me since I already know that I wouldn't be able to get anything done that day, travelling, and neither would I get my afternoon nap even though I only had three hours of sleep that night.

It was a rush for all of us since we only found out about the appointment with the specialist at 8am in the morning but still, we managed to get to KL before lunch. The reason I decided to go along was because my aunt was sick and couldn't carry her own luggage. Moreover, the two of them have not taken the express bus to KL for ages. At least, I am able to guide them since I have been down to KL a couple of times in recent months.

Anyway, I hope that with medical attention from a team of specialists, she will be on her way to recovery, though the recurrence of cancerous cells is worrisome.

Learning To Play The Piano

Some of my friends continue to ask me if I am still playing the piano, even though I have clarified numerous times that I don't play the piano at all. It was my sister's piano and I just posed for a photo with it!

I have wanted to learn the piano, though, but my parents could only afford piano lessons for one child. My sister tried to teach me what she had learned from her piano teacher but I never could grasp her lessons. Either she was a bad teacher or I was a weak student.

Children nowadays are very lucky because piano lessons are not as expensive as they were during my childhood. Moreover, here are many piano lessons online that one could download and learn. Of course, this is usually in addition to the lessons that one receives in a real music class.

I have a friend who is so musically inclined that she could play simple piano pieces by just learning from piano lessons in DVD that she bought online. She impresses me so!

Job Opening

A friend is looking for a sales person to work at her boutique in Puchong. I actually would love to take up this job because it's very similar to what I am doing now and I know that I can handle the job but according to my friends, Puchong is so remote, it is not going to be easy for me to move about since I do not have my own transport.

I feel sorry that I have to pass up this opportunity to relocate to the capital city. However, even though I may not be able to take up the job, I know of some friends who are still looking for a job after some months of unemployment.

My friend, the boutique owner, told me that I can recommend job seekers to her but they would have to undergo employment screening first. According to her, she had a very awful experience with the previous girl and doesn't want and encore. Well, she's the boss!

Singapore Events Mid-June

I'll be visiting Singapore in mid-June and I am pretty excited about it because it has been a long time since I visited the country! Actually, I haven't been able to travel much, if at all, because of my two sickly dogs but I don't regret the decision I make. However, I want to make the best use of my holidays moving forward.

I have been checking online to see what events are on in mid-June in Singapore. I was told that there will be three trade exhibitions going on at the same time the week I will be there so the tiny island country will be jam-packed. I was supposed to visit one of the trade exhibitions but to walk the entire exhibition hall would take two days, time that we couldn't spare just for the exhibition so we may give it a pass.

In addition to the three trade exhibitions, there is an arts programme called February 15: The Day to Remember, another even by the name of 200 Artworks - 25 Years, Artists' Editions for Parkett, STPI Annual Summer Show and then there's Pixar: 20 Years of Animation and let's not forget the Great Singapore Sale 2010! Yes, it's happening in mid-June the week I am visiting Singapore!

First Pregnancy

My sister, who is expecting her first child, is having a tough time dealing with morning sickness. She wonders why it's called "morning" sickness when it happens to her the whole day! If dealing with a challenging pregnancy is not enough, her father-in-law just passed away last week. We all feel terrible for her.

According to my sister, she is taking pregnancy vitamins now. My mother had to remind her that she should always only take medication or even supplements under doctor's supervision.

My mother is always worried about my sister. I think it's because she doesn't get to see her daily and guide her through this phase in her life. I told her that we are working hard to send her over to the States in time for the birth of her first grandchild. Oh, the pressure!

Building Up

My cousin came home earlier this week to put some official documents in order. He said that it's also a good excuse to come home to see his mother and to celebrate Mother's Day earlier since he has to work on Sunday.

I was quite surprised to see that he has some muscles on him now. He used to be quite big even as a child but he said that now, he wants to turn that "size" from fat to muscles. I guess he must have put in a lot of effort already but he said that it's not as difficult as he thought at first thanks to the availability of the best testosterone boosters in the market.

My aunt is so proud of her son now but I guess parents are always proud of their children no matter how they look like or what they do!

Nokia N8 12 Megapixel Photos

Gosh, as a user of Nokia E61i who has been hankering for a new mobile phone for a long time because I am not happy with the quality of its 2.1MP camera and because it is starting to act up after using it for 2.5 years now but too cheap to buy another mobile phone to replace it because I cannot justify spending RM1.5 - RM2K on a smart phone because I have a spare hand phone in Apple iPhone, I so want to get this latest Nokia baby, N8.

OK, I know my sentence is way too long but if you have seen the sample photos taken with the 12MP Nokia N8 camera on the official Nokia blog, you will know what I mean. The photos, untouched, look just like they were shot with a REAL camera.

Yeah, I guess buying a Nokia N8, I can totally forget about buying a digital camera so it's going to be one price for two gadgets. Worth, right? Moreover, I never really liked carrying too many devices since I don't carry a handbag so it suits me totally.

Shopping Dollar Store Products

My friend, Doris, told me that since losing her job at the end of last year and having to make do with a single income from her husband, she has been tightening her belt. She can no longer spend like she used to when she was employed, and now, look for dollar store products whenever possible.

I can really understand what she is going through but then even though I am not on the same boat, I still love to buy a dollar store item occasionally when I have use for it. Even if I don't buy, I love to browse through dollar store products to see what's available.

Doris said that since she is spending so much time checking out dollar store wholesale items, she is contemplating starting her own dollar store online, that is if she could find reliable dollar store suppliers. I don't think it is difficult to find reliable suppliers but I am not sure if Doris is committed to the store in the first place, or will still be in a year or two.

The Doris that I know never have patience to see through anything and gives up too easily. She herself admitted to these.That's why I am afraid that like her previous failed projects, she would have wasted her savings on an online store only to find out that she is not suited to a life in front of the computer.

Wrinkly Skin

I met a girl, Jo, when I was on the train to the capital city a month ago for my holiday. She is twelve years younger than I am but is already very concerned about the fine lines near her eyes. She said that she is using various products to keep the lines at bay but hasn't been exactly successful.

You know, meeting someone like her, I feel quite embarrassed. I am someone who doesn't care much about my looks and take the least care about my skin. I know that I shouldn't neglect it and beauty is actually something that everyone works for.

Meeting her is like a wake up call, though. While I also noticed fine lines especially on my forehead, I have done nothing about it. Now, I plan to invest a little time and money on my skin so that I do not look so much older than my age.

I understand that we should only use paraben free cosmetics because paraben is actually harmful to our skin. I know that there are many anti-aging products in the market but I learned that Mango Madness skin care products are highly praised because of their effectiveness. Moreover, Mango Madness skincare products are only a handful of skin care products that use real ingredients.

PC Fair (I) 2010 in Ipoh

It's the PC Fair weekend in Ipoh this weekend. As usual, it started on a Friday so it's the third and final day today. And as usual, I couldn't find time to visit PC Fair earlier. I had wanted to go not because I have anything in particular to buy but I wanted to go look see, things are usually the same with the same vendor booths and even the same shoppers. Still, it would be great to absorb the bustling atmosphere if only for a short hour.

Anyway, I had planned to visit PC Fair this evening. I live quite close to the venue, actually, but then my father just informed me that there is something wrong with his car. Since it is Sunday today, we have no access to the mechanic. So I guess I will have to give this a pass. Well, no worries. It's not a matter of life and death what...

Shuttling Between Two Cities

I told my friend that I am planning to shuttle between two cities because I plan to set up a small business but my friend told me that it would not be viable based on my scale of business because my profit will be spend on transportation and short term accommodation.

This friend is also doing something similar, that's why I asked for his opinion. He travels to the capital city once a month but since he is a full time employee and the business that he is there for is actually the business of the company, he gets reimbursed for his traveling expenses.

My friend told me that recently, his company implemented a Vehicle Reimbursement program and since mobile employees like him are not assigned company vehicles anymore, they have to use their private cars but luckily, they are reimbursed at the end of the month based on mileage traveled for the month in the course of work.

Vehicle reimbursement program is still new here and many employers would like to implement it because it will reduce the company's liability and lowers its risk. Overall, it will be easier to manage costs. Employees, on the other hand, are not very aceptable of such programs but I think it takes time for such changes to be embraced, especially when they see the benefits of a vehicle reimbursement program.

4th Anniversary

2nd May, 2010 marks the fourth year that this blog has been in existence, though I actually started blogging in December of 2005. Whoa, time really flies, I tell you.

I am glad that I took up blogging when I did. I actually know of blogs and blogging way before I started but felt that I didn't have anything to share, and even if I did, I didn't want to share publicly. But when I started my blog, I took it up diligently and didn't look back since.

Blogging totally changed my life. I found the freedom that I needed. The freedom to express my opinion is one and financial freedom is the other. Through blogging, I also managed to make a few extra friends. Few, because, as you can see, I blog anonymously. Only a handful of people know who I am and I don't mind one bit. I actually like it.

While many bloggers I know have already moved onto other things, I will always continue to blog, though sometimes my posts may be a little late in coming. I know that no matter what, this blog, a blog that I have written some of my most personal thoughts, will always stay live.

Looking Sexier With Breast Augmentation Surgery

It was a long time since I met a friend, Melissa. I remember when we were in school, she was rather meek but what surprised me when we met at a recent old girls' reunion was the way she looked and moved. People say that if a person has self-confidence, you can see it from her actions and the way she conducts herself. It really is true.

I later learned from gossips among mutual friends that she had a breast augmentation surgery. Oh, how could I not spot the difference? I thought she looked sexier now so it's not imaginary! If a surgery like that could bring on such transformation to a person then I too should consider breast lift and augmentation!

But then, even though I too would like to look as shapely as Melissa, I am quite afraid to go under the knife. I was told that plastic surgery mexico is very advanced and not as costly as plastic surgery in some other countries, like the United States.

It got me thinking though, that if I were to go for plastic surgery, I would rather go for cosmetic surgery face lift because not everyone would have the privilege to look under my clothes, unlike the face, which is the first thing people look at.
