Jane by Design

I am loving this series now.

It's about Jane played by Erica Dasher who is a high school student and was mistaken for an adult when she was interviewed in a fashion retail shop Donovan Decker.

She was hired as an Executive Assistant.

Jane is living with her only brother, Ben, and spends most of her time with an almost brother/best friend Billy.

Wanting to help her brother, she never imagined that she will have her dream job this soon.

She's having two seperate lives and tries to juggle between both.

It so reminds me of high school - crushes, friendship, dreams and pursuing them.

Oh, one more reason to watch it: her major crush is this cutie Nick.

Wordless Wednesday

And this is what my pendant says...

Sale @ Mango

I had just blogged yesterday about Mango and last night, I had received an SMS that their mid-year sale starts today!

I won't be rushing now to the nearest store.

I'll wait for couple of weeks more before I grab something from there as they tend to lower the price still.

OMG.

I can't contain the excitement.

Cirque du Soleil in Doha

Saltimbanco is coming!

I was so excited when I received a mail about Cirque du Soleil performing in Doha.

It will be held in Aspire Dome from July 4 to 7.

Oh, I hope I can still get tickets!

Shop 'Til You Drop...MANGO

I heart you!

Awww...

Just like other girls, I love to shop: be it the shop-til-you-drop type or simply just window shopping.

I normally wait for the mid-year and year-end sale at Mango.

Good thing I have small (as size) so I get a chance to find some stuffs that fits me well.

I like their pants and tops too!

Oh, I can't wait!

Thursdate: Nando's

It's been almost three weeks since we were moved to another project, thus, other office location.

And I miss my friends!

So almost every Thursday, we would go out, eat somewhere or just have coffee and catch up with the stories and the usual girl talks.

Last Thursday, we went to Nando's for a late lunch/early dinner and thanks to our birthday celebrant for the treat!

These are the yummy foods that we munched on...and oh, did I say, yummy?

Chicken Liver served with Portuguese Roll

Capri...I cannot remember the name of this drink...

Roasted Chicken

Yummy!

Definitely Nandos!

We had laughed our hearts out and enjoyed being with each other.

Until next time, girls!

Blanco...Suite Blanco

Since Villaggio Mall is closed for the time being, my friends and I had gone to Lagoona Mall instead.

It's near Zigzag Towers and The Pearl.

It was our first time to visit the said mall and I find it cute.

I loved the Carrefour that they have there.

They have the stuffs that we don't normally get from the usual branch.

There are nice shops but most of them are still closed.

I had discovered a cute shop, Suite Blanco.

They have nice summer sandals and shoes (yes, a girl cannot get enough of the shoes).

The clothes are good too and are reasonably priced!

I got myself this new pair of sandals which I totally adore.

I wish they'll have a big sale one of these days!

And I'm Back!

Yes, I am back!

I've missed lots of entries on my blog and I'll try to make up for the lost times.

It's been awhile and lots of things had happened personally and professionally.

So first things first...umm, where should I begin...

My team mates and I were moved to another project.

And as expected, it's not easy.

I was teary-eyed when I said "See You Soon" to my "Kuyas" and colleaugues with whom I had spent every single working day in Doha for almost 5 years.

Things are going quite well except for some issues with HR which in the end, was also sorted out.

Our new teams are ok, so far.

With all the movements and changes, I am not closing my doors still to other opportunities which might come my way too.

Lives were lost in a recent fire incident in Villaggio Mall.

It was really devastating and heart-breaking; words are not enough I think to describe how those who had lost their loved ones feel.

The summer heat is still scorching HOT.

I am working mostly on afternoon shifts so as expected, I have to brave the high temperature and have my daily doze of sunblock.

Wheeewwww...

And I am back, hope to tell you more about my adventures and all...

XOXO
