Me? A tai-tai? Maybe I am a tai-tai in some ways bah. But deep down in me, I'm not and I dun desire to be one. I only love to indulge myself occasionally, erm say perhaps 3 times a wk? Haha.. Maybe that's too much.. But I just love to indulge as and when I like and when my mood of indulging comes.
Well I prefer to be called a princess rather than a tai-tai. Why? There's so much differences between both.
The life of a tai-tai only sleep and eat, shop and relax, and play mahjong. Always doing the same things. So boring. A tai-tai got no dream and things to look forward to, besides how to spend their day everyday. A tai-tai grows to be fat and ugly and always has those kinda bee-hive hairstyle. So ugly. Tai-tai got no brain one lo. Yucks. I dun wanna be one.
The life of a princess is more or less the same, except that princesses are more open to new things and are more vibrant. A princess more elegant and those sophisticated one got brains lo. Haha.... I wanna be one with brains and can enjoy life yet work the jobs I like.
I'll die if I were to live like a tai-tai everyday. I'll be bored to death. At least I sometimes do like to work.
Yesterday when Xiaowei heard that I got pilates class on Friday, she said I very tai-tai leh and asked if I got any other tai-tai activities such as yoga. Eh... Yoga, pilates and aerobics aint tai-tai activities anymore. These activities are open to the public liao. These are all sports lo. When I told her I got kickboxing lessons too, I guess she couldn't believe it.
Well I just love to live an indulging yet purposeful and meaningful life. But somehow not all the people around me know how to indulge and enjoy life the way I do. Different people have different ways of enjoying.
Ok I had to admit that I'm kinda pampered and I love to be pampered yet not totally pampered to be those totally ignorant idiots or spoilt bratz.
I love going for spas and facials, going for high-tea in hotels, shopping for branded stuffs (only certain things and certain brands) or even just shopping and going home with my hands full of bags, love to go for musicals and spend a day in some good atmosphere cafe with a bunch of my buddies. Well no one taught me how to live such a life, and my mom isn't so approving of the way I spend my money on spa and facial and branded cosmetics and beautycare. My dad is ok with it. But both of them are ok with me buying branded clothes. Cos my dad always buy branded clothes for my mom. O well.. that's why they are ok with it and I'm all the more ok with it cos my dad pays for my clothes. I love shopping with my dad cos he pays for everything. Cant wait to get my credit card in 9 months time. Having debit card really also not much of a kick.
Well, I know I'm kinda of a "bad" influence to some of my buddies. I taught Suet how to watch musicals and shop for beautiful earrings, taught Sally and Chantal and even auntie Alice how to go for spa and facial (not that Auntie Alice dun go for them. She used to but haven gone for them after Cheryl was born. So I inspired her to go for her 1st Spa in 3 years or maybe even 6). I taught Ting how to go expensive restaurants, taught Ris how to smell nice perfumes and rot in cafes.
And bcos I've got so many membership cards in my cardholder which is already exploding, and of which, one is the Body Shop card, so Sally and Chantal also went to apply for the Body Shop card. Chantal only applied her card 2 wks ago. And I just read her blog. She went to The Body Shop to shop today again and spent so much. In 2 weeks, she ald spent $300 plus. Gosh... I led her "astrayed". Now she's indulging herself with The Body Shop products. Eh... If she goes bankrupt bcos of it, I'm a little tinny-mini bit indirectly responsible la.
Well and also cos I went to make the research for yoga classes, which indirectly dragged Sally and I into the kickboxing class cos Chantal wanted to learn kickboxing.
Hai.. Am I good or bad? I think I'm good. At least after all the indulging I still have the brains and might to wanna work hard and save up, and to serve. At least I still do household chores and cook.
My princess dream is to wait for my Godma to come back from New Jersey and buy me a car and give me the money for me to setup my cafe.
Once again. Me not a tai-tai. Just that I love indulging and pampering myself. I'm just a princess-wanna-be.
