another shopping saturday

saturday, destination: midvalley.

main reason for going- bellaskin permanent hair removal trial received via one of the competitions organised by the star. appointment time: 1.30p.m.



so got there early for a consultation and listening to all explanation about the technology used (ipl- intense pulse light), blahblah blah. anyway, you won't get all your hair permanently removed in just one session. the price for 8 sessions plus free conditioning treatments, etc is rm2400. so if anyone is willing to pay this much to get rid of underarm hair or other places permanently, you know where to go.


the above is the ipl treatment room. they will shave your hair first, then will apply some gel and then 'zap' the light into your skin. the dark roots of the hair will attract the lights and it will then be on its way to self-destruction. each of my underarm was zapped 7 times...so how many roots can it kill?? the dead hair is supposed to fall out on their own in a few days time...so i just have to wait now.


oh...if you are a deodorant user, better not use it so often yeah. the reason why you do not sweat as much after applying deodarant is because it actually blocks your sweat gland....it is not good to get blocked glands. so please choose some other way to sweat less.


and so....i said goodbye to bellaskin at around 2.30p.m. not expecting to go back again....well....any more free treatments?? oh, the grand prize winner of the contest only gets 4 free sessions...so not even a full one. i wonder if she would pay for the rest.


i headed to the mall then for a bit of window shopping...which ended up with a few paper bags. heck, they were all having sales!!! not in the picture below is a dress from mng. well, i still dunno if i am going to wear it for cny, so cannot put up here lah. hahaaha...



my things are all from sports brands. a pair of trackpants from adidas originals, training shorts from adidas and the shiny black winter jacket (stuffed with duck feathers) from puma. i love the jacket oh-so-much. have always wanted one jacket like this. mom asked me where i am going to wear that to. well, i can think of hong kong at the end of the year. and the best part is, the jacket is only rm103. that is a steal!!! i think i got 60% discount and it was the last piece at threepointsix.



if only i can go ala hip-hop most of the days...



er....is the trackpants to pink for you? they had it in black and dark brown too but....i am a colourful person. as much as i want to follow the black trend this season, i can't put myself in all black from head to toe. i love grey though.

ok....so i finished my shopping just in time to meet the boys i drove down for a movie. we watched tsunami at hyundae in korean at 4.35p.m. and it was good. i miss foreign language film. it could be a good tear-jerker if only the editing was better. even the boys had tears in their eyes...but as the tears were about to spill, the scene would move on to something else. those who have experience tsunami would be very affected watching this movie. so if you dunno what to watch this week at the cinema, go and watch this movie....and bring along some tissue papers.

the four boys i baby sat. have to teach them how to be gentlemen. nobody offered to carry my paper bags....i had to shove them into their hands. nobody bothered to greet me good morning when they came to my house, except mankit of course. well, i only know mankit. the rest are his friends. and at the end of the night...nobody said thank you or good night to me. haiz.....i think this is the moral degradation qahina was talking about in her khutbah deepavali. hehehe...


besides clothes, i also got some foodstuff. the most expensive loaf of bread i have ever bought. gion bread. i think it originates from kyoto, japan but not made there. made in subang. it is rm18 for a long big loaf, but i only got half a loaf (the size of a normal loaf of gardenia) for rm9.80. it is very buttery and thick...like many folds in a slice. yummy. there are around 8 slices in my half loaf...so that makes it more than rm1 a piece. well, eating a piece will make you full....a healthier choice than roti canai? you can find it at the bread kiosk outside carrefour....somewhere near the atm machines.



these are the foodstuff that went down my tummy that day.


lunch: had it alone at yo!sushi. sitting at the sushi bar alone is one of the best ways to eat when you are alone i guess. how sad.


dinner: crispy xxl fried chicken ala shihlin style. yummy. the piece of chicken is really large. it is broken into 2 pieces in the paper bag. i only ate a piece, wei nibbled some i brought home and grandpa finished the rest. haha...granpa loves fried chicken despite not having strong teeth to bite into a drumstick. i think he enjoyed tearing the small pieces from the bones. so next time can buy this treat for him.
and last but not least, a box of big apple donuts.




so that was my saturday.....

and on sunday....durian time. well, i think you can find durians at most malaysians house by now. just showing the big one which required the power of two men to open.

i only had a few pulps because i had to attend a wedding banquet back in bidor that night. the wedding of a 17-year-old to a 20-year-old. no prize for guessing why they have to get married so young. ok...please dun tell me that the 17-year-old is already getting married and when is my time.


i packed a container back and that was what i had for monday, both lunch and dinner.
