Let his soul rest in peace

Whatever happened to Teoh Beng Hock, I hope his soul rests in peace now. It's horrible what happened to him. I shudder to think of all the torture he must've been through. I'm sure he must've had all the fear in him and to have died alone in such a place, whether of his own doing or of others, it's a real pity.

What I find to be very odd is the fact that there was no autopsy report to state the cause of death. Why is that so? Isn't it very strange? So was he beaten to death or did he fall to his death? However you look at it, it's just strange, strange and strange.

I'm sure such a case wouldn't have been let off so easily in the US. There was once a case that someone was beaten up and when it was reported, plenty of Tennessee injury lawyers were on standby to help fight the case.

But who would fight the case here? I'm sure there will be those who want to put up tough fights to put whoever responsible behind bars but based on what kind of evidence when there's really none to start with?

Sad story. Nothing but a sad story.

And today, another sad death. Yasmin Ahmad. Rest in peace too, Yasmin.

I'm finally going for my facials again!

It's been a very long time since I last went for a facial. My package is still there, unfinished. I don't even know how many more sessions I have but I know it's at least 3 more to go. Finally I'm able to find some time to go pamper myself and get a back massage while I'm at it too. I'm looking forward to it :)

I don't know if my beautician is going to complain about the condition of my skin. I was lectured when I first went to her because she said I wasn't taking good care of my skin, and it was very dry. But since then I have taken more care in making sure I put on enough moisturiser day and night!

But at least I don't have much of a skin problem (thank God for that). So at least I don't have to subject myself to talks of the best acne treatment or skin repair sessions of some sort. So let's see what I'm gonna get myself into in the coming week ahead. Really, really need some relaxation!

Time to look around for some medical card plans

With my new plan of what I want to pursue in the very near future, I thought that it is time to start scouting around for affordable health insurance. I don't actually have a personal medical card that I purchase myself. I've always depended on the companies I worked for to provide medical cards to me.

It has suddenly dawned on me that it's something I should look into more seriously now. Even if the company provides medical benefits, they are always limited. I believe having a customised policy drawn up to meet our personal needs is getting to be more and more important, looking at what's happening around us in the recent years.

Medical plans don't come cheap though...but I believe everyone should have one. It's worth it. You don't want to be a burden to someone else should anything untoward happens, right?

My latest impulse shopping treat

I wasn't planning to shop. I was hoping to save up as much as I can, as fast as I could. But one day, I accompanied a friend to a shoe store because she needed shoes. I wasn't planning on buying any but when I saw this lovely pair in just the right colour and height, I found myself reaching for them to try on.

Did I buy them in the end? Yes I did. What a weakling!

You see, women sometimes just can't say no to shoes. Somehow, people design all these pretty and appealing women shoes for a reason - to make you keep buying them although you may not need them!

But still, I blame myself for the indiscipline, no one else. Not the designer who designed the shoes, the storekeeper who said the shoes are perfect for me, and not my friend who kept nodding in approval when I tried on the shoes. It's me and just me.

Women and their impulsive shopping, it's dangerous! But you know, I somehow am enjoying that little splurge and treat for myself. It's been quite a while since I bought shoes :)
