Excuses, Excuses



[Skirt : Zara][Boots : Forever21][Sweater : Rowme, c/o catsuit-latex][Jacket : Pull & Bear][Bag : Local Store]

Please excuse my excuses for my short absence from this little corner of cyberspace. The fact is that (major excuse #1) work has completely devoured me, especially during these past few days; I barely had time to look at myself in the mirror because of the long hours spent, if not stranded behind a desk, running around with heavy luggage in tow. So what if it wasn't part of the job I signed up or, right? In the service world, we're nothing but little potatoes in the Chinese term, who can't disagree. 

As it is, (major excuse #2) I've lost all sense of time management, or in this case I think time itself. Nothing for anything, which meant no time for proper dress ups, heck even time to go home, eat a decent meal, and sleep on my own bed, so let alone take photographs. I don't even blame the weather because in fact it's been perfect all week; decided to be just right when I was busy and all-time preoccupied. Always a great job, mother earth! 

Sigh.

Anyway, rants aside. I have a confession to make.

Remember when I said I've been reading the Divergent books, and that I was hooked (from this post)? Well... I kind of feel like I'm cheating on you guys if I didn't tell you now that - sorry to spoil it all - I'm very disappointed as to how it ended. Ooops...

But I am. I mean I didn't lie at all that the first two books got me hooked and it's a no-brainer that they became a hit. But Allegiant felt like it was finished in a rush; so much didn't make sense, as if it was detached from the first two series. I don't know. I won't go into details but then if you've already started reading Divergent or Insurgent, carry on. Just don't expect a good ending.

Oh well, I guess that's it for tonight. And finally... finally... I'm off on a weekend! What better thing to do than make the best out of it starting right now! 

Cheers!

  6. I love the texture of your sweatshirt! And I've heard poor reviews about Allegiant as well. Sometimes I wondering if the authors are pushed by their publishers to meet a deadline so they can't be as thoughtful about their writing, which is a little sad. Anyway, I'm going to stop at the second book. :)
