I'm okay!

I just updated some information on the website and edited the navigation! It's now a pretty pink colour and I've also further categorised the palettes into eye, face, lip and blush! Hope it'd be easier to navigate now.

Also removed all information on 250C Compassvale St on the site because I don't find a need for meetup anymore that MT's rate of damage for postage is so low. My excessive bubble wrapping didn't go to waste! (: Also, it's very very hard to prevent instances when I'm held up last minute or my battery just dies on me. Especially when recently I've been falling asleep with my books open and lights on and handphone not plugged in. Too much work and too little time. :/ When that happens I'd be left with like 1 bar of batt for the second day... I'd always turn off gprs and wifi and refrain from smsing or making calls.. But even so it only lasts half the day... But I bought a backup battery on ebay last week! Hope it comes soon. Oh and together with the battery, I bought a full pink housing + pink trackball for my BB. Price is about $24+ shipping which is like half price of last year (coz 8900 is an old phone now i think). So it's more affordable and I decided to go for it since my BB is sooooo badly scratched.

Okay. Onto the topic.

I'm pretty glad that heaven only let me stumble onto "the review" 2 days ago... Even though it was a really bad one, it didnt impact my business much.. At least I didn't feel it. Business was pretty much the same for the past year even though I did zero advertising. If I had seen it last year I would probably have been very badly affected. This shop really did make me a much much stronger person than I used to be. When I first started out, I used to get affected over everything... Every complaint that customer makes or bad experiences, I would brood over it for days and even weeks and really get very emotional. But as time passes, I grew more hardy. I realised that it's impossible to please everyone and it's just impossible to do the right thing perfectly every single time... Everybody makes mistakes.. And yes, even blogshop sellers! ;) Nobody who knows well me in person would call me irresponsible or unfriendly or whatever other descriptions I've been called before. And I'm quite surprised that people find me as someone who has many blogs and updates them alot. because I really am not a "blog person" at all. I take blogging as a task to let you guys know that I am still running MT.. and I guess that's just the limitations of online business that you only see people through a screen.. And any misunderstandings will be largely amplified. I've learnt to accept critiques in a more mature manner and understand my limitations and improve what I can. I feel that this is the best thing I've gotten out of the shop. And I do sincerely thank all that have criticised me for making me a better and stronger person (:
(like, really sincerely thanking them, no hard feelings or anything. im not trying to be sarcastic.)

The incident did quite affect my mood the past 2 days but I feel okay now. So for all who's concerning, I'm okay! :D

And I better go rush my assignment that's due in a week and I haven't started!
