Never Before Seen Photos

Today I’m going to show you guys the face behind this blog. The face that’s been hiding behind a veil for the past 15 years 😜.

Hubs has been spring-cleaning his office to free up space and lugged back boxes of old photo albums that were kept in his office for decades. I found lots of old photos of myself from my own babyhood through my pre-baby days. Going through those old photos sure brought back lots of happy memories. How I miss those good old days.

Though corporate life was super stressful, but hey I enjoyed the camaraderie with my colleagues. What I really miss the most are those big fat paychecks. Gone are the days when I could buy any of my whims without batting an eyelid.

I bought this Salvatore Ferragamo handbag during my heydays in the early 2000s. I had totally forgotten about this bag until I found it by accident when I was sifting through some old stuff. This bag cost over RM3k at that time. Though the bag is 20 years old now (older than my eldest daughter!), it still looks good. I polished the leather with a dab of Melaleuca’s leather polish and it’s now almost good as new.

20 years old Salvatore Ferragamo bag but still looking good, except for some scratches on the metal buckle.

I also found this LeSportSac tote bag together with the Ferragamo bag.

This LeSportSac bag still looks 99% brand new, though about 15 years old.

Now I have two ‘new’ bags to alternate with the old ones 😬

And now, the moment that some of you have been waiting for, tadaaaa…

Me in my Renong uniform, which we had to wear every Monday. I was about 28 years old then and looking so young, sans the wrinkles, crow’s feet and thinning hair! Back then I was a PA to a Dato’ in the conglomerate. Occasionally, I had to be the relief PA to Tan Sri Halim when he came over to our office to sign documents.
In my office. Check out the dino-age desktop PC and the blue Nokia mobile phone 🤭. Also check out the charging Blackberry phone on the topmost photo. In those days, it was swanky to be holding a Blackberry. That phone was provided for by the company while the Nokia was my personal. I also carried a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) and an executive brief. Those were the days when I had to carry so many electronic gadgets around, even when I went on leave as my boss would call me to ask me things even during my rest days and holidays.
