Nailing it down to hygiene matters

Ran out of ready-to-drink packet coffee today. So yes, here I am nursing a sore head after my caffeine withdrawal symptoms kicked in for the day. Wish I could buy those portable caffeine jabs. Oh crap, I sound like a recalcitrant druggie.

It's pointless to scavenge the office for some instant coffee mix. The workers here prefer tea to coffee.

Just over the weekend, I was having dinner in the city and took a quick walk around the place after my meal. There was this small underground shopping area (along the likes of City Link Mall MRT) selling cutesy fluffy stuff. I chanced upon a nail bar doing manicures for ladies and ventured in to enquire about their prices. I have this feeling that their services may cost substantially less and I can finally fulfill my vain aspirations of owning a set of pretty nails!

Ayumi always has pretty nails.

True to my prediction, a set of beautiful acrylic nails cost around $20 SGD. Even some DIY kits in Singapore cost more than this. I so wanted to sit down and let them work their magic on my digits but I could not stay that long. Sad to say, my hardworking hands then didn't get their well deserved treat.

In the evening, while I was watching television, it suddenly dawned upon me that if I were to possess the aesthetically appealing long nails, how in the world am I going to wash my ass among other things? I wonder how…

Wish I can have nails of such patterns!
