went Dataran Pahlawan mall as usual
on a Saturday afternoon
with my grandpa
the last trip was almost one month back
Good Old Talk X Angmo Stalk: Our Saturday Walk
oh man
how time flies
almost reaching the fountain area
his three friends were already hanging out there
one even walked up to greet him
if there was only one or two friends
I might have joined them for a quick chat
but 4 old gentlemen and me
appeared weird enough
so I went for a walk on my own
updating myself and you fellow with the
“marketing information” around
2 pm
first stop, Bossini
thank goodness
there are no sign of
Bossini X M&M’s: Hohoho! Be Happy Kidult Collection
and also those good collectibles from
all they have is
Bossini X M&M’s: Hohoho! Be Happy Kiddy Collection
and the free gift
is the off-season luggage
which I already grabbed
I don’t wear red all my life
and I hate to see
those Mango babes in red too
persistently judgmental me
no choice
but this is a good budget for X’mas display
no décor no x’mas tree no nothing
2.44 pm
it’s time to take a break
walking round and round
without the wants, needs and
more importantly the ability
to buy anything
is embarrassing
I mean people would notice
not to say that I look outstanding or something
a girl walking alone
3 rounds and above
my fellow-benchers
tourists waiting for assembly time
and I know
this is damn bad of me
Miss Santa kept walking round and round
seducing and dragging kids
to a specific playground at the concourse
well…
salute her
if I were to take up this job
I would rather be Mr. Santa
at least people would not be able
to recognize me
after the beard has been put on
and before observing her for that long
I thought she is a shopper like us
I am sure the others would think the same too
poor girl
luckily
she has got an assistant too
but more comfortably in
jeans, polo tee and sneakers
this is at least the 5th times
I took photos of these pairs of shoes
well couple shoes
which just look natural enough
but actually on their own
just separate the two pairs
they look plain enough
well…
maybe this is the little truth in life
there’s no Mister / Miss Perfect in this world
but if you have found your other half
you will compliment each other
making a perfect match
and you gonna take the walk together
down the journey
cheers
2.53 pm
Levi’s
why am I looking
I never buy any pair of L jeans
in my life
just feel that it is overrated
just to check on the After Dark collection
why? why? why?
I did’t see him
a little disappointed
but on the brighter sight
who knows if he is there
he may tempt me into the store
and half consciously come out with something
then wandered to Guardian
wow check this out
free bag with purchase of RM 30
Dove / Sunsilk / Clear range
really really tempted this time round
RM 30 for the bag alone
maybe I would have bought it already
and now it comes free
but… forget it
I can’t find what I want
and the gift set is so so
strategically priced at RM 29.90
that means even if I buy this
I have to grab another item
for the sake of the free gift
and I realized something
this set used to come in cosmetic bag
but now..
just paperbox
okay so I have to give up
last pic before I went
went checked out on my grandpas
the “Big Four” were still happily chatting away
decided to cross over to Mahkota Parade
so that they will have more time to catch up
pretty much like these
because they always combine the elements I like
last year it was X’mas in a summer day
Santa with shades and Hawaiian boardshorts
singing on a guitar and bbq-ing
and this time round the blue sea
wow
all of the sudden
new stores popping up at the mall
extension at the main wing
this kinda reminded me of
but this is just Bonia
Coach at Melaka, is it ever possible?
and no surprise
opposite the Bonia
looks like shopping industry
is picking up in Melaka
woohoo…
sorry I never know how to pronounce this
just know it as a French originated brand
specializing in natural high-end products
sincerely hope that it will last long
and more international names will be attracted
into our small little town here
and opposite there is a new H20+ store too
back to Guardian
tempted tempted
then back to Dataran
already 4pm now
and I have even toured
Giant and Carrefour supermarkets
of the both malls already
grandpa and gang were still around, chatting
so..
I took the risk
to cross the road
I never know how to cross road
all my life
the principle behind:
just follow the crowd
heading to Guardian
the Guardian at Mahkota
simply have more products
than the one at Pahlawan
how can I don’t buy it
this is a Guardian’s exclusive
and it comes in three colours
black is the nicest one, of course
phoned up PG
and bingo
he is using Sunsilk at home
so he has promised to
buy the shampoo from me
so I can’t wait no more
caused a long queue at the counter
because the black colour I requested for
was not available there
the guy went to the store to dig for it
yet he came back empty-handed
so I decided to have the display set
while I was picking my products
a lady was checking out the bag
while I was making payment
that lady was speaking to the cashier staff
whether she can exchange for a black one
since she got a golden one, earlier then
while I was waiting to collect my bag
it’s her again
requesting for the black bag
but.. boo too late
“hitam ah mui tu sudah ambil”
“the girl has already got the black one”
sorry aunty
if ultimate dream of a girl is to
own a super luxurious bag
then Chanel 2.55
would be my first choice
I loathe monograms bag
in common terms: repeated logo
and nowadays
there are so many counterfeit around
who cares if you are using the real thing
on top of that
no matter how expensive a bag can go
I don’t believe any girl
will use it for life
therefore I am perfectly happy
with my loot today
