Heyheyhey! i mustmustmust blog about my wonderful and ultra hilarious shopping experience yest. ok so i met bo and choy at taka at 11pm and we went to PULL AND BEAR! woooooots! i absolutely loveloveLOVE their clothes okay! it's just a shame some of their really nice things are insanely ex but i managed to get a few really nice yet cheap tops.. i got a super coool shirt and a $9.90 tank top but i splurged a lil on this super-duper nice jersey top... it's lyk purple wif retro prints and i reallyreally liked it... cldn't help myself cos i seriously have never come across tt kind of top wif the perfect cut and fitting and colour that i've been looking for for so long... i cld have posted a pict i took of all the clothes i bought but my dad went to m'sia today and took the camera wif him.. grrrr... okay so after that we stopped for lunch cos bo's roaring hunger and her muscle-aching legs were almost killing her (tho we had only shopped for about an hour? ah well.. it's called post-churchcamp-syndrome.. xD) we really had to scrounge cos we wanted to save money for shopping.. okay so thennnnnn... we headed down to bugis to go BARGAIN-HUNTING! xd we walked to bugis street then to the bugis shopping arcade then back to bugis street then back to the shopping arcade again then back to bugis street..... yea as u can see we were basically scooting in and out of these two places either cos it was getting too hot in bugis street or cos we wanted to check if the one shops we were waiting for to open in bugis street had opened yet (it only opened at like 3 plus i think. -_-''') yea so we managed to get a few good bargains thx to CHOY LAY MUN our bargain queen... in between we stopped here and there to rest and we stopped once at a cafe to order something to eat... so there's this order list thing on the table where we write down our own orders and we got MOUNTAIN fries.. cos we were pretty hungry we wanted to go upsize so me and choy asked bo to write "mount everest size please" under special request and then cancel it out so if the waiter read it he'de get the idea.. hahaha... yea but we still got the regular bowl of fries so we were kinda "errrrrrr" tt our plan failed.. at least they were served hot... ok so anyway around the end of our bargain hunt we went to this shop and i saw a really cute cropped jacket but it was 30 BUCKS! so choy started her bargain-talk again and she started telling the nice old-granny-shopkeeper that i was a foreigner and needed money to go home.. then i realised i had a 50 dollar note in my wallet! so choy wif her quick thinking snapped up $20 (she managed to get it $10 cheaper!) and said she'll pay for me first.. but i quietly told her i wld pay her back later... hahahaha!! omg! and all the while choy and bo kept toking to the auntie in chinese and pretending to translate everything for me while the auntie thot i was a complete know-nothing in chinese.. ( i almost contemplated speaking to the auntie in chinese until choy started making up my sad life story..) xD i pretty much burst out laughing once i left the shop and we were out of earshot.. but i did feel a bit bad later cos the old auntie was so nice to us and she kept smiling at us (maybe trying to create a good impression for "s'pore tourism"..haha.) oh man.... okay so that was one funny highlight for the day... last stop for shopping was actually the 1st shop we browsed through when we first went to bugis street.. there all three of us got the same top but three diff colours cos we all looked so nice in it and we all really liked it.. choy's had a more vintage flavour to it, bo's was red and mine turquoise... it's this... arrr... i dunno how to describe it... wait till i load the picture... ok so after that bo was totally heart-broken to find out the shop next-door was selling the same top for $15! we paid like $10 more... but the other shop had already sold off theirs so wat-the-heck.. me and choy didn't really care cos the lady who sold it to us was darn friendly and cheerful but bo nearly screamed.. hahaha.. alright so enough shopping for the day.. our legs were sore and aching already but dun even tok about bo's.. i think she became lame (literally) by the end of the day... ok so then we had dinner at the food junction and decided to take the mrt home.. kay listen to this.. we boarded this super packed train where everyone was practically squashed together.. now there was this guy who carried some instrument-case-thing-of-some-sort and right at the top he hung this lame donald-duck keychain on it which was almost swinging into everyone's faces... kay this guy, knowing it was so jam-packed and all, could have had some common sense to take down his case-thing and hold it right? but noooooooooooooo. he let it swing leftandrightandleftandrightleftandright... so just as everyone was squeezing OUT of the train the dumb donald swung so near my face, just stopping 1mm away, i got a mighty SHOCK okay! i thot it was one of those creepy clowns from the movies.. arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!!! annoying! then when we changed trains this guy boarded the same train as us again and this time as everyone was squeezing ON the train before the doors closed, damn donald really swung into CHOY'S face this time! omg.. we were laughing lyk mad can... arrrrr... damndumbfreakinstupid DUCK! i think finally the guy got the message and took off his bag.. gheez.. okay so then i got off first and bid goodbye to choy and bo.. OhKay.. now my loooonnnnng journey home... i got off at orchard mrt station and CLEVER me, wanting to avoid the crowds, took the wrong exit! so i ended up walking a looooonnng way through wisma through a looooooong way through town alllll the way to the bus stop at four seasons park, behind far east shopping centre...DAMN! am i smart or wat... i think i walked for a good half an hour... haiz.. moral of the story: take the bus and train more often (wisely quoted from bo).. The End. (:

all the times we had together.
