I enjoy the fact that i get to buy magazines overseas. Have to admit i find glossy fashion magazines irresistible. (Although mostly a quarter of the pages are filled with ads).

When i was in secondary school i went through a phase of buying i-weekly almost every week. Then there were teensy mags like "Lime" or "Teens" or "Teenage". When i got older, i became interested in fashion, so came "Cleo", "Elle" and what not.

But i'm no longer the girl who reads Cleo every month now cos i've got a new found fav! :):):)

Yen from Australia. Very obscure mag, apparently. We import a good and wide selection, really. You could find most of the well-known titles in major bookstores here like Kinokuniya or Borders, but i couldn't find my Yen. In fact, i couldn't even find it in aussie's supermarkets. They hide in only newstands or shops that soley sell magazines.

I think it's somewhat of an arty mag cos the books and films and artistes they discuss about are somewhat indie too.

But no matter. I still love pretty girls in pretty clothes and not only Yen features photoshoots that are interesting, mind-intriguing as much as they're beautiful...






They also deal with serious issues and discuss current affairs. Which is good for me cos i want to be SMART. Heehee.

And there are always travel stories!

A fashion magazine packed with general knowledge, geeky current affairs and interesting stories! Good for geeky bimbos! I'm well on my way to having more fashion awareness AND getting smarter at the SAME TIME!

Buy for me if you're in Aussie!



And then i also cut my hair into a sha gua tou again. I'm sick of having to plaster hair gel and hair spray into my already thinning fringe. I had my camera lying around and Ethan, my 1-year-old nephew, (we call him xiangxiang) came running in (:


He has curly hair like Domyoji! And small eyes. I think he looks like jay chou in his earlier days. Bwahaha!
