I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

In other news, I think I’m coming down with something, muscle aches and all. Either that or it’s muscles industrial revolution for lack of exercise. Don’t make me exercise my authority over you, body. I was crawling around the house drunk with fatigue and moaning that I’m going to die, then my loving boyfriend handed me this and told me to sign it:

macku

“I hereby give everything to Macku (who is the best). Signed ____”

Impromptu willhe’s eyeing my DVD collection and the laptop (and the scanner). Do you see my half-conscious attempt to sign it, I misspellt my own name, what a failure.

My first Gmarket box arrived containing 2 black bags, the beige suede jacket, white sheet dress and hey, a blue beanie as a bonus! (which, by the way, doesn’t fit my head, it does fit my fist though.)

The bags are faux-leather so I fully anticipated it to look cheap, but once you carry it a bit, the way it slouches in the right places it really doesn’t look all that bad. Then again I’m very easily pleased – I get happy when I meet a fox in the courtyard, so I may be the wrong person to be writing this review. The suede bolero/jacket thing was a bit of a disappointment though – since it’s single-sheeted, it’s got no lining fabric, so you could see the mediocre stitching. Still, it’s got a very healthy looking sheen to it and the fabric is über light for summer. Gmarket items seem to be quite similar in price and quality to H&M, so that could be a quality reference for those who were wondering. What you pay is what you get, isn’t it in most cases?

Now please excuse me, I must go restock on some sleep as my life is slipping through my fingers and running away with the milkman. Sorry for the dead-ness of late.

You know, I tried answering some Q&A questions these few days but I just can’t get around doing them, sorry Angry Frequent Visitor, I don’t have the time and energy right this moment. I have 2 major projects running side by side (occasionally one knocking the other over, snickering as it overtakes) and designwork from the Netherlands. This is my fourth night up and seriously I’m running on a bagfull of E000 chemicals and turkish delights of questionable source. I’ve got fat baubles hanging on my face like some christmas tree, and looks to me that I’m growing a second pair of butts just sitting at the laptop for hours on end.

So that’s one answered question at least – Why won’t I post the rest of the Q&A? – Because life says hey bumhead, PRIORITIZE.

On another note, thank you Sara from Public Personae for asking me ‘what I’m into right now’!

All from Gmarket.com

Before I say anything, I just went through a bag of iceberg lettuce like it was a bag of crisps – you know, grab as much as you can in a cupped fist and shove it in your mouth type of crazed munching. Yeah…just in case you felt like lifting one eyebrow today.

I guess it’s been quite long since my last shopping post, and sorry that everything’s from Gmarket – I’d be happy to help anyone with shopping there, you just need paypal and it delivers to almost anywhere. All that up there, even including shipping to the UK, is worth maybe 3 items from Topshop.

  1. Slinky white summer dress – Perfect for layering and as a basic summer piece – I don’t own enough dresses and skirts, it appears.
  2. Double pouch bag – Men’s accessories tend to appeal to me more… I just don’t see myself carrying around a girly handbag.
  3. Suede single-sheet Jacket – Yarr, it’s a single-sheet thin, and reversible apparantly. They had these in yellow and orange, might get another to studd the crap out of. I’m sure they won’t mind for £15.
  4. Multi-Strap Flats – Hello Chloé knockoff. Not bad for £4.
  5. Lace bootie heels – Reminded me of Jeffrey Campbells  – missing the ankle wings though. (£16)

I feel like a cheapass.

Oh for those who asked how the quality and fit of these clothes were – When you’re buying, always look at the feedbacks (they’re always in a graph at the bottom) – Koreans are picky people and if the feedback is bad then the item is surely bad. Other than that I wear almost every single item I bought from Gmarket – the shoes fit fine, and the quality is great for such a low price.
