Shopping Wednesday

Kanebo sale is good, the pricing is reasonable. If it is not for my miserable pay I would have done more.

Observation for the day:

Aunties buy skincare in cartons.

It is bad enough to be queuing behind them, to top it up,

they pour the entire content on the table
ask the cost of each product (which was already nicely done up at the area where the product was displayed)
then only pay for half of what they had picked, the staff have to return them to the rightful area.


Shopping in Singapore is similar as shopping for uniform.

Chiffon, butterfly wing tee shirts (not really dislike but do you have to import ALL in butterfly cuts?), figure-less dress, matron fashion. In every stores.


Hate lines like:

"We have this this this, its all new, similar to what you are wearing now."
My thought:
"Why would I want replicas? And I had already worn mine, so yours isn't new, its SLOW."

"Its from Korea/Japan."
Me: "..... And/So?"
I mean you could have sell me with words like, wow its the trend over there, the quality is good, its your style and all sorts of lies to make me pay for the crazy price tag, you opt for its from Korea/Japan. I don't mind MICs which looks the same at cheaper price and less comfortable, it is actually easier for me to dispose them seasonally.

Shopping overseas is really easier, but maybe it is due to time shortage that I buy on impulse?

Things Get Worst from now

Last Thursday, I felt the pain that I had never ever experience in my life.

A neck pain I thought was just stiff neck went crazy that I can only held my neck up straight, and have problem eating and sleeping. Opt for injection because it is too much for me to hold.

Woke up today and realize, it must be that new pillow. Lesson: Not all pillows are suitable for everyone and buy pillows carefully, points to the neck support pillow.

Then the world's worst news greeted me when I returned to work.

Stock take resumes THIS AUGUST.

FML. It has been just 5 fucking months! Not even half a year, and we are talking about the next Financial Year, already?!

My room is still a slum, I really don't understand why.

Deja Vu

I don't know how would you feel about it, I never like it, send my brains into knots "real or dream?".

But I have been experiencing too much of it recently till I felt uncomfortable.

The range is wide, room making, office environment, car rides, eating place, shopping centers, lesson time, chat topics, yada yada yada

It might be the recent increase of usage of me brains that causes it.

I hope it stops after saying it out. It creeps.

Arg.. Bad Again

Took leave today because furniture was supposed to come today, at 3pm.

But received a call saying their vehicle broke down and most probably not able to reach today! Its still pretty early, why can't they change into another vehicle :(

DUH. I am still stuck at home, because they are not 100% sure they are coming or not. Nothing to do...... If they are surely not coming Imma go Ikea now, but cannot be sure...... DUH DUH DUUUUHHHHH.

Please come please come please COME!

-------------------------------------------------------------

They didn't come after all, now its all messed. Damn it.

Checked the Ikea web, it doesn't seems like its a good period to shop for furniture, now, although with sales going on. They are clearing for the August new catalogue, not restocking items. Its kind of frustrating.

*Sign* everything is postponing my completion of my room.

Who is a Happy Design Kid?

ME!!!! ME ME ME!!

Having fun doing measuring and looking for furniture. Then DIY Ikea bought accessories.

Found a very interesting site for ideas and making Ikea even more unique.
http://www.ikeahackers.net/

Really got a lot from there, and is generating ideas for my room, but funds are low. I think I'll have to go slowly, and maybe give up half way. :(

Anyway went Ikea on Friday and bought happy things.

Almost got stranded.

I went with a list and strong on buying a few to make sure I'm not going there just to have my Swedish meat balls. I toured the display area TWICE and the collection area 1.5 times, most of them are out of stock, THAT'S SICK! So I die die have to buy a shelf, which while looking through the catalog and the display, I thought it is going to be light with the price of $29.

Yes, I planned on taking the bus with the shelf. But alas, its heavy! And with the others OOS, I HAVE to buy.

Need to get cab.

Then, I thought shopping places should be able to get one very easily, but it is at the ulu Tampines factory area. Cabs seldom turn in despite having a wide taxi stand. Tried to call bro, he is out with friends.

:(

No choice have to wait, thought of calling cab, but I can't part with my $$. Waited for half and hour, with almost crippled leg, and got it, not bad, it's still my day. How fortunate to have Ikea at Tampines, cab fare still within budget.

More furniture to come, then I will start taking photos. Its too messy now with things everywhere.

Real Happy Kid!
