New Year's Day

Did not do much today though I did log into work to check on how the campaigns for the account I've passed on are doing. I meant to do a brief cursory check but ended up spot-checking placements and approving screengrabs.

I really need to let go and trust that this new account manager knows what he's been doing, and that he's been trained properly for it. Perhaps part of the reason why I'm still so precious about the account is because I didn't have anything to do with his training as I was away in Japan the time he was trainning. But hey, can't do everything, right? I have to let go or else I'll never expand.

Went shopping at Harrods today to shop ahead of the 10% discount weekend and was sorely disappointed by the selection. Perhaps all the goodies were gone by then. I did get a Stella McCartney gym bag (last one, had to buy then) and some goose down pillows that were on 50%. On hindsight I could have waited until this weekend to get the additional 10% off. Rewards cards were re-set today so no extra perks until I go back to Gold which will take some months.

Today's 6 positive things before bedtime:

  • Drinking Milo that my cousin brought for me from Malaysia (yumm!)
  • Reading Warren Buffet's biography
  • Having awesome friends like Niran @ Y&Y who hooks me up with Virgin Gym promos ;)
  • Really warm fleece jumper and house slippers that I got for Christmas
  • Chanel for making amazingly comfy ballet flats that has lasted over a year - cost per wear is less than £1 by now!
  • My orchids are flowering!
