Chanel

I am more excited to blog about Chanel bags and wallets than posting pictures from CNY.


Bcos Paul is going to Munich for some business trip!! I wanna go with him!!! if only i am working.. so poor lar.. why??!! shld be able to afford to go one ok.. ahhhh!!!!


How I wish I can I buy my Chanel Reissue Black Medium Caviar bag! If only I can afford.. oh well.. money money where have u disappear to?? It would be a great saving now due to the weak euro and 10%+ tax rebate...

History of Chanel 2.55

The lock on the Reissue is the original lock, it is called the Mademoiselle Lock as Ms Coco Chanel never married, the ‘CC’ lock was introduced to the Classic Flap Bags only in the 1980s by designer Karl Lagerfeld. The 2.55 in its name refers to the first release of the 2.55 bag in February of 1955. Coco Chanel grew up in an orphanage/convent, therefore, the double chain shoulder strap comes from when the children’s’ caretakers in the orphanage would dangle keys from their waists with the same type of chains as on the Reissue. Also, the zippered compartment on the inside of the front flap of the Reissue is where Coco sequestered her love letters, as she was having an affair at that time. The brownish red color of the inside represents the color of Coco and the rest of the children’s uniforms (the nuns’ were black with white trim: thus, the packaging on Chanel Parfum/Eau de Parfum/Eau de Toilette). The back outside flap of the Reissue actually marks where Coco would stash extra money!

Over the years there have been many variations to the original design of the 2.55, including the leather/fabric, the chain - metal vs. interwoven leather, single flap vs. double flap, and the closure - mademoiselle vs. interlocking CC. The 2.55 refers to all flap-style bags, including variations of the original! The term classic flap commonly refers to the flap with the interlocking CC closure and the leather interwoven chain.

In February 2005, Karl Lagerfeld re-made the 2.55 - exactly as Coco Chanel had made in 1955, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the 2.55. It came to be known as the Reissue. Technically the term Reissue should only be used for the bags that were made to commemorate the original - so only those in 2005. However, it has become convenient to call all 2.55s that resemble the original 2.55 Reissues and all 2.55s that have the interlocking CCs Classic Flaps

Oh well, this Lunar New Year is less exciting I guess.. I don't feel the excitement anymore. Is it becos I have grown up and matured? I didn't go for a crazy shopping spree, just got 2 random decent dresses online that are cheap haha and got some accessories from FEP the other day, a total of 6 items for $18++ lots of blings and pearl.. cheapo me oh well..

Hai.. I got Birdnest for Carol, it comes with 2 boxes, planning to keep one for myself but mum wants me to give her both even when i said i wanted to keep the other cheaper and lower quality birdnest for myself.. so she said there's some in the fridge. hai.. i don't even bear to buy one box for myself lor.. i wanted to get the better quality bird nest but hai.. it's ok..

shld i continue to dream

it was a little dream of mine to teach young children and watch them grow under me.. having really high expectation, i put it my best in whatever i enjoy doing.. i ensure that my students understand the concept fully and master the content before i proceed to introducing new ideas.. i may not be the best teacher but i did my best to impart knowledge to these little kids.. i smile when they understand what i taught.. i laughed when they tell me something i taught them before.. i giggled when i failed to trick them with the wrong answers so that they would tell me the correct ones.. 2008 Nov, I sent my first two students for their First Theory Examinations.. one of them is a retired adult, in his fifties.. the other is my fav little girl.. i put in my best to prepare them for the exam.. they did 4 sets of yearly-paper that adds up to 16 sets of examination paper.. and one mock exam right before the examination.. i knew they will do well.. i knew that they will score distinction.. i couldn't see myself from failing in something that i am so confident in.. i only wanted the best..she scored 100 marks... the only girl that scored 100 marks in that pathetic little school hidden along balestier road.. he scored 95 marks which i think was great, for someone who made a lot of mistakes during class, for a retiree to learn some alien stuff from a teacher who took over his lesson barely 4 months and retaught him whatever he had learnt from his previous teacher..

i knew i did well for the first time sending my students for examination.. i knew i can do it best.. i knew i have high expectation..


i missed the stage, i missed performing, i missed playing with them.. i may not be the best player among the group, but i know that i can be part of the better percussion ensemble in Singapore.. but i chose to leave this group.. don't ask me why.. i don't wanna regret.. because u said so, i left.. [July 2007]


[Oct 2008] the plan was proposed, as i look forward to conducting group lessons.. for the teens.. it was not discussed till late Nov 2008 bcos the holiday lesson failed. not a single person signed up, i asked weekly for the number of confirmed student, no reply.. i asked every week since Oct 2008.. no one signed up.. bcos they did not advertise.. Late Nov 2008, a second plan was proposed.. a fun and music appreciation class for the little ones.. i am willing to give up my Sat morning to teach a class of 4-5 interested toddlers with the best lesson plan that i can come up with.. details were finalised after 1 week.. i said 10am-1045am.. but he told the parents 9.30am-10.15am, nvm i tell myself i will wake up early for these lovely kids.. 10 lessons per term, but it turned out to be 11 lessons, i was disappointed.. nvm i tell myself, as long as i have the chance to teach.. 1 hour he wanted, but i insisted and fought for 45 minutes.. he agreed in the end.. 4 students i hope but it turned out to be 2.. i am disappointed.. what am i supposed to do?.. i checked on the application every week since late Nov 2008.. every single week i asked similar question.."any one signed up for the class?" i got the same reply every week, "No".. late Dec 2008, we got ONE confirmation. i am excited.. but reminded him that we need 4 to start a class.. early Jan we got another new student.. i told him we need 4 but if worst scenario, we can do it with 3.. and we are to start the lesson only when there are 3..

[16 Jan 2009] i got a text telling me that we've got 3 students.. one of them is a 5 yr old kid.. oh.. so we have a 5 yr old kid now.. wow.. is that a joke? did we mention anything about 5 yr old? 17 jan 2009 9.30am, i am supposed to conduct the class.. now at 12.27am, 17 jan 2009, not a single piece of material is printed out for the class tml..

welcome to the real world, u said..

i lost a dear friend, till now he is unwilling to talk to me. not even when i wished him Happy Birthday. He told me I am no longer who I used to be, the girl who fight for her dreams..

u said i need to see a doctor, bcos i need to open up.


perhaps...

bcos i am no longer me

what kor always tell me is really true, "shit does happens"
