Stress Buster


I'm sure you can tell I am busy cause I didn't post anything this morning. I have two days left til my event and as usual, last- minute problems are coming up. I am just learning to detach myself from them and just take things as it is. I gotta keep my cool so as to avoid the wrinkles! Maybe I should accept my co-worker's advice to join her for yoga to attain the "zen" state of mind or better yet I should book a treatment at Bliss Spa ASAP.

There were a couple of things today that made me happy though (yesterday was a bad day so I made sure that I today would be different)

1. I brought my daughter with me to work (talk about multi-tasking).
2. I had a great meeting at the Living Room of the W Hotel. (that's when I was tempted to order some cocktails at ten in the morning. Good thing I resisted!)
3. I bought some dresses on sale at Zara (the only ones that fit me, ugh!)
4. I had some yummy pizza at Pizza Express with a good friend and her baby (calories!)
5. and Haagen Dazs Ice Cream Cake! My new favorite... (more calories!)

I told a friend that when having a rough day, she should list down things that she is happy about and somehow that changes her mood. Since, I officially declare this week as hell week... I am already planning to do the following to compensate for the stress.

1. Go for happy hour and drink some Greenpoint Rose. Nothing beats sparkling wine!
2. Drop by the new Sift in Wanchai for mouth-watering cupcakes (am getting tired of froyo)
3. Go to Pedder Red for those really comfy shoes (after buying 3 pairs of shoes within a week)
4. Attend playgroup with my daughter on Saturday (crossing my fingers that there are no more H1N1 issues at school)
5. and eat more Haagen Dazs Ice Cream Cake! (How come no one told me it is so good?)

Stress? What stress?! See it works!

  1. Thanks for this link. I know exercise helps alleviate stress too but I am just too stubborn! I am working on my diet though... except for my sweeties :P
