Bravo Mango X Ditto Daiso: Going Solo

Going shopping alone is such a miserable term

therefore from today onwards

I decide to call this particular activity cum hobby

marketing Survey, Solo

 

3 weeks in a row

I have been going out on Thursday

· Class ends at 11 a.m.

· New SpongeBobs come out today

· Friday is a hectic one

therefore I need a TGI Almost Friday mood

 

decided to just drop by at IOI mall

instead of going all the way to Mid Valley

it saves a lot of time, indeed

and I already had in mind,

where do I wanna go

 

there were a bunch of girls on the bus

it’s school holiday right now

with a huge gift box and D-I-Y birthday card

planning where were they going to buy cake later

and what’s for lunch

plus taking out a camera and snapped photos of each other

 

It has been a long time

I kinda miss high school moments like that

awfully dressed, awkward pimples and fats, noisy giggles

but who cares

 

and after I grow up

I found it difficult to hang out in group of more than 3

okay maximum of 5

because everyone just has got

their own motivations and directions

 

12 Noon

first stop, happy meal lunch at McDonald’s

I kinda expect a big crowd, since it’s the value lunch hour

ordered a take-away

but luckily found this anti-social corner

it’s more like a long, narrow lane

and there were actually a couple of loners like me

 

1 p.m.

groceries and supermarket survey

nothing much

I feel like buying carrots, green vegetables, tomatoes, etc etc

oh my,

grocery shopping is becoming more like an excuse for me

my vegetables are on the verge of rotting

stock has been piling up in the cabinets too

 

1.15 p.m.

Mango outlet

that’s more like the usual place for marketing survey

been here a couple of times

outlet = outdated cheap clothes

but seriously never found anything attractive because

 

Clothes here generally fall under these categories:

• Super cheap + outrageous = ewwww…
• Rm 10 for a pair trousers, shocking red/yellow
• Reasonable price + outdated = still lousy
• Rm 55 for a sheer blouse, but appearing to turn yellowish
• Cheap + in trend = no sizes available
• Rm 39 for a pair of jeggings of different colours, all sized 32
• In trend + suitable size = not-the-outlet price
• Rm 145 for a navy blue blazer

 

but hey looks like I am in luck today

right size / colour / price / style

bingo

 

look of the day

It’s complete yet complicated

tube dress + tank top tube + cardigan

 

spot the differences

tube dress on tank tube = tube dress

Tank tube on tube dress = tank top + skirt

I prefer the latter combination because

tube dress always gives me the phobia that

it’s falling, it’s falling soon

I don’t have the sufficient assets to carry a tube dress, I think

 

I could have just gone out like that

the safety pants has been incepted into our mind since young

still in practice today

it’s actually a pair of Dri-Fit jogging shorts

but it’s so comfortable

I can’t help it

this outfit exactly looks like the dress-up doll set

tank top grey/black/white

is a must-have for a girl wardrobe’s

now you see why

 

back to the fitting session

 

I took these for fun

knowing that I can’t fit in

Rm 45, with the belt

petite girls, i am totally so jealous

there was navy blue too, size 32 too

 

I came out,

putting the pair of pants on the counter

but because there’s no one there

I was not bothered to call out

went another round still

and I discovered a better pick

 

Spot the differences II

	A	B
Colour	Darker shade of brown	Lighter camel brown
Material	Comfy, but crumpled Definitely need ironing	Smart casual kind Straight
Price	Rm 45	Rm 55
Cutting	Straight boot	Skinny
Ori Price	Euro 23 or 25	Euro 39

 

 

I know right

Such a shopping mechanism

The whole table had been presented in mind

Within a couple of minutes

 

Then next stop, Daiso

I always wanted to get iStephru a new home

because the one she is currently residing

Is actually my travelling pouch

whereby I throw in all the chargers, lens pouch, notepad etc

she deserves better than this

and it’s a must to bring her along for a fitting session

 

Now baby blue or black?

	Black	Baby blue
Size	B5 / A4 Can throw in more stuffs for A4	Just B5 Just fitting nicely
Material	Softer	Soft yet staying in shape
Colour	It won’t get stain even you throw it in the mug	It stains easily, yet giving an organic look
First impression	Just a common, maybe even a freebies	Exclusive, striking

 

2.30 p.m.

another happy meal take-away

double check,

Yup, I want the Doctor SpongeBob

 

But after I ordered,

the girl told me it’s not available

She gave me a painter instead

 

Wait a minute

walking towards the signboard for a triple check

I have got my Painter last week

 

Oh come on

what do you mean by, you don’t have

I come all the way here during Day 1

so that I won’t miss it

 

forget about it

I don’t wanna be on a Youtube link shared on FB

“Unreasonable Customer Demanding for DR. SpongeBob”

Or ended up with bleeding nose because

My request upsets the crew

 

and later on

I donated that set of happy meal

which doesn’t really makes me happy

to a skinny girl, with her grandpa at the bus stop

she deserves the fat better than us

 

maybe it’s just destined

I deserve an extra painter Spongebob for myself

artistic and playful, kinda cute too

 

loots of the day

 

Micro fiber glasses cloth

one good thing about Daiso..

everything comes in baby blue, yeah

I have to buy this in the biggest size

because you won’t believe how many pieces I have lost

 

and was stomping my feet

when I lost the one, coming along with my FCUK shades

it’s not that it’s so expensive or something

all of them are complementary, anyway

but whenever I wear that shades

It’s just another painful reminder of how I lost the cloth

 

I guess it just slipped out of the camera pouch

I guess..

but never exactly know where and when did I lost them

probably if I am buying it with money

I would learn to take care of it more

 

For the tired eyes

okay I have spent quite some time reading before bed

but best of all

I did it on bed and on iPad

 

I can’t get rid of this addiction, really

just pray hard that I won’t turn blind

or i have to dictate my blogs content to a secretary

and oh my

how can i ever go for marketing survey, solo… again?

 

okay

so i shall start taking care of my eyes from today onwards

no iBook-ing on bed, baby

never…
