快過買por菜


so "faster than buying a veggie", we've bought a townhouse in richmond la!! It's on Granville and Garden City in Richmond, my mom and dad kinda loved the hse at the first sight because it was very well kept by the original owner and most importantly there's a park right across the street from our door, so the view is very opened and not so crowded feeling like the other townhse. My boss was so right, he said some ppl like new hse, some like old hse, some ppl like this style and some like another style, but only (good) VIEWS no one would hate. So the buying process was quite smooth except the owner was the chairman of the complex's committe, AND he's a caucasian so he was quite firm on the price. Unfortunately he's living in Rich and dealing with Chinese, so of course we did some bargaining! :P So we haven't decided the moving date yet, but i guess it'll be around end of June or July since we're not really in a hurry.

here's the hse listed on MLS if u want to take a look:

vitaminV.ca

so when we were shopping at holt renfrew for the dior spray foundation few weeks ago, there was an unattractable promotion counter for the vancouver-based beauty website - vitaminV.ca. Me and Carrie were invited to register for the website and subscribed to the lucky draw. Since we were waiting for Jess to come and had no better things to do, we both filled out the form and walked away. So few days later, i received an email saying that I've won the gift basket promoted on that day!! i was like... another junk mail?? so i asked Carrie if she also receives it, but she said NO wor.... so i was thinking that i've really won that thing. Since both of Carrie and I didn't even realize there was a gift basket, we had no idea what will that be. So after a week or so I finally received the prize~ It was a surprise to me coz it had quite many things inside, and all of them are from the makeup school/artists from Europe or US~ and since I love to *buy* makeup/skincare/haircare very much, it's really a nice gift to me! love it :)
