A Moment of Fad/Obsession?

*DRUM ROLLS* After weeks of waiting, much spending and stuffing oneself with unhealthy food, I have finally done it! I finally collected all 7 colour of those Mac Donald's Coke Glass!!



Although, I don't wanna exaggerate things and all, but I have to say, am feeling very bangga with self this time! *grins* When I first saw the promotional offer for these lovely cups, I thought to myself, oh, the perky pink is kinda pretty. The lime green isn't half bad too. Perhaps I will get those two? But this is soooo not gonna be a collector thing going on. (previous attempt at collecting Kingdom Hearts got the better out of me)

A month and a half later, I soon found myself having not only to eat a large set of Mac Value meals, I had to eat my own words too. But given any day, I would gladly eat the latter than the former. Thanks to this recent conquest of mine, I will be abstaining from Mac Donald for the time being. I know these glasses are suppose to be free and all, but having to eat through each meal of those large meals with the Sundaes isn't what I would call a bargain. Often I find myself wishing if only I can skip the meals and straight go for the glasses. But capitalism and an excellent marketing strategy dictated by a certain conglomerate decreed that I have to get pass those large 7 meals first. Emphasize on the word large!



*am so jobless till I can memorize the colours in order - from the right; Perky Pink, Cool Blue, Fortune Green, Shiny Grey, Royal Purple, Lime Green and lastly Sparkly Clear*

And on another random check at Mac Donald's website, it has a page whereby it tells you which colour you represent and the attributes behind the colour. Yours truly falls under the Royal Purple category. Personally, I like Lime Green better (it's refreshing to the eyes!) but meh, I can live with purple too. You can check out your inner-Coke-glass-colour at here too!





PS-Dear, Mac Donald, please don't release any more glasses as part of your promotion ok? At least not in the near future.

The Month of October

What do one do when one is too comfortable in one's comfort zone? Waiting to be yanked out of course. If there is a vice I am willing to confess is about how I get so easily nestled up in my little private sanction. Sigh.
