shopping, burger and roses

wahahaha....i had a fruitful shopping day. it was 3 hours shopping and 1 hour lunch. see....good time management. i had envisioned where i wanted to go and how i planned to use the time when i was there.

the parking lot was still very empty when i reached klcc at 10 sharp. my planning was down right accurate to the minute today.

however, the same could not be said about the waking up time. i set the alarm for 8a.m. but i woke up at 7 plus. not that i was willing to do that....but i could not do so because there was some talk going on in the mosque behind. gosh, who gives talk at such hour of the day? i did not hear the azan call at dawn usually so i guess i am kinda immune to the sound now. well, those who have slept in my room before will know. i you don't hear it, that means you have a good sleep.

so got downstairs and went out to buy the paper before 7.30a.m. oooh......the air was so crisp and fresh that i felt like putting on my jogging shoes and doing some work out. i thought about it only lah....like so motivated. but there was no jogging shoes with me and i was too lazy. it is not a good idea to go jog in the morning here, well, let me see if i am woken up early again next time. will make sure my jogging shoes are with me first.

ok...shopping right? TAAADDDDDDDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA......shopaholic let loose??

nice or not???? bought a big hardcase trolley bag because my big bag is kaput. no more made in china counterfeit bag. learnt my lesson. this yellow hard case i got is from delsey....limited edition available in singapore and malaysia only. who knows anyway. 50% discount....original price rm760.

and oh, the gorgeous dresses.....i LOVE dresses. they are so comfortable and easy and femine. that green one was only rm139 (normal price). ok, i normally dun buy at normal price, but i doubt the dress will still be around when sales come. the pieces are quite limited for this brand (in isetan) and they all come in free size. yeah! i can fit free size now. hahaha.....

the black one......the biggest discount for the day- 70% off. original price rm290. cheap cheap cheap

and ooh ....the shoes. all got discount! can't stand wearing trainers everyday. i want to match my clothes to my shoes too!! when the feet scream pain, it will be trainers lah. in the meantime, suffer for the price of beauty.

the beige pair of loafers is from lewre. 50% discount. original price- rm240.
black sling back from clarks, 30% discount. original price- rm240
sandals from clarks, 40% discount. after discount rm220.
the clarks are really comfortable. thank you isetan for having clearance. sort of regretted getting the pair of lewre because clarks also have loafers on sale. well, next time....go to clarks first!!!
they are still having this clearance till sunday. so tomorrow is the last day. go fast!

shopping ended at 12.30p.m. efficient. some observations i want to share about our sales assistants here. sigh.......only the male SA who served me at the luggage corner in isetan was friendly. the rest....were unfriendly and acted like they did not see you. what is so hard about serving customers and making them happy? i even saw a middle-east couple throwing a shoe to the floor at vincci because they were fed-up of waiting for an SA to serve them. those SAs were just walking around without noticing them as if they were invincible. how rude! in malaysia, most sales assistants wait to be called or summoned. they do not serve you willingly and most of them preserve their smiles as if the laughing line would kill them. ok...maybe i exaggerate a bit.

do you have SA bending down and tying your shoelace for you when you try on a pair of trainers? i had...in hong kong ;P

next up: lunch at chilli's to satisfy the craving for burger.
we got a seat by the window and so we had a great view of the pool and the fountain. oh, quin came out to meet us too....and no, we could not finish what we ordered.
i had swiss burger, she had chicken tacos, mom had triple play which is a starter. not mom's taste. she likes her noodles more. i love my burger. satisfied. what is the next craving?? have to check cafe world first. haahhahah...

ok that 4hours seem super long on this blog.

let's go to something lighter....origami.
check these roses out. are they pretty or what?
ahem....as if i made them right? i wish. i tried learning but the steps are soooo complicated and there are many folds and twists involved. with more guidance, i am sure i can. next class with the kids...will have another session with them and make sure i learn it. it takes a lot of observation and visioning skills.
the small one was so delicate huh? i requested for 100 stalks on my birthday...hahaha...poor boy.
so boyfriend out there, this is something you can make for your girlfriend and it saves you a lot from buying roses which will wilt after 1 week.

ok time to read the day's papers on the bed. stack up the pillows and pull the blanket. gosh, i hope i don't fall asleep.
