Shopping

Today is such a fruitful day!

Started with 送大礼, a ceremony, bringing pig trotters, plates with dates and dried fruits, and many other weird stuff to the bride's house and then bringing back 6 boxes of cakes and alot of towels and i got ang pao. hahaha! oh yes, 龙凤烛, two candles to symbolise the couple, where the bride's mum will keep the dragon and release the phoenix, so called 'xiu leng pang hong', symbolising that the daughter is someone else's business already, no need to bother and they got a new son haha!!!

then got home and prepared to go out again to shop with aunt and mum and mum's friend. they want to go cck lot one, ayia i tell you lah, aunties, in their heads, only have OG, BHG and cck lot one and chinatown. its like there is no where else to shop in the world.

ok so anyway, we got there and ate Wan Zai, i had Pork Fillet Cheese Broiled Casserole, which is damn big a serving and is VERY filling. and then the others got fried rice and some almond paste. then we went to buy clothes and shop.

So i got a dress from Cocoon, a tube dress costing me $158, which is serious serious heart pain. and a top from G3, something like a corset with cashmere laid underneath, costing me $49.90, which again is heart pain. and then bought jeans from bossini, which are damn cheap, two at $52 ! so everyone go buy jeans from bossini now !!! its really cheap and the material and cutting is awesome. i tried the one at Sense, (i was looking for skinnies) and its nice but really really tight and is at $69.90, and then i tried the Levis, which is at $159.90, which had ordinary so-so cutting. can you imagine Levis had only so-so cutting ? ok then i gave up and we went to have tea.

So back to Wan Zai again, which i duno why they like it so much, i had Ginko Barley white beanstick soup, which is a hot dessert, and is quite nice, just a little too overcooked. and the others had white almond paste, black sesame paste, gui ling gao which is some jelly.

then we went back to finding my jeans then i was so tired (i woke at 8am to get ready for the ceremony, i slept at 1 last night uploading pics to fb) and then i just wanted to go home. then while we were making our way out of the mall, i saw bossini having promotion so i got attracted.

then after this phillipino-very-enthu salesgirl guided me to buying straight cuts. cause the skinnies has only light blue ones, which i really hate that light blue colour, i prefer dark ones. so i tried it on and its cutting is something like a skinnie, which sounds really weird but it worked out great. so i bought one and my mum bought one too.

then back home now, trying on the tube dress, the top, the jeans. oh they look fabulous!

now what i need is a necklace, a pair of nice earrings, a clutch, some eyebrow trimming, some blackhead removal and pore minimizing, some whitening to the sunburns and heat rashes i got yesterday, seamless panties, eyeliner, somewhere to do mani and pedicure, somewhere to do my hair and makeup. that sound like alot of work.

oh ok nevermind. how i wish everyday is like this, shopping and eating and shopping!
