Crowd Hurdle X Can Handle: Shop-In-Bundle

i think the school holiday is about to start

as usual tourists flooded my place

 

and today is a special occasion in Mahayana Buddhist calendar

lunar calendar of  19th Feb

which is the birthday of Guan Yin

hence, that’s how crowded it is in the temple

11.00 a.m.

Cheng Hoon Temple

 

12 noon

then like what the normal tourists would do

if they couldn’t stand the sun any longer

we flooded the mall

and there is this particularly flooded store.. oh my

crowd at SAVEE

 

1 p.m.

waiting for mom to shop

that’s my look of the day

look of the daylooking particularly chubby, recently

 

in fact

we kinda predicted the crowd

to prevent losing each other in the middle of the sea

we wore the same outfits for easy recognition

couple shirts with mom

 

bumped into this cardigan i really like

but too bad the navy blue were left with size XS

which is a little bit too small for me

and my principle for cardigan/jacket etc

is always since you pay the same price

might as well get the large size

since ultimately you gonna wear something inside

i would have settled for grey

if mom is buying another blouse, since it is 2@88

she didn’t buy, so i didn’t too

navy blue cardigan

 

loots of the noon

loads of facial mask

from the particular crowded store

each for 1rm

actually i didn’t wanna buy at first

mom was saying, you spend so much time making your own mask

just settle it with an one buck mask will do

therefore i chose those with rare ingredients

not-so-D.I.Y.-able at home

apple, you mean?

no i didn’t take that

probably mom took it, cos it is for anti-aging

charcoal mask

 

4.30 p.m.

2nd round, with fellow market surveyor, Cheryl

same mall, because we won’t have much choice, do we

plus me vs my mom and me vs Cheryl

or even me vs my dad (we were here yesterday)

have different territories and motivations

therefore, i don’t really mind paying the third visits

within 24 hours

 

she was stuck in heavy jam

went around this miscellaneous store

where they sell hardware to baby wears

bought some random stuffs

that’s the thing for miscellaneous store

it created wants, even if you do not have the needs

it is always tough to come out empty-handed 

and i actually phoned up my dad

to check if he wants this

but too bad he didn’t pick up my call

therefore i took this

Bruce Lee's miniature

 

5.10 p.m.

half an hour has passed

after the jam, it was the parking issue

Cheryl was stuck in the middle of nowhere

waiting for vacant parking

i wandered to this part of the world

which i have hardly been, although i know of its existence

Bundle Clothes a.k.a. used clothing

bundle clothes store

 

and i actually found something quite lovely

for 5 rm, for 5 rm

i mean even the cloth material costs more than that

dresses.. all the long dresses

at 5 rm

blue long dress

 

and this one

i mean i always want a hoodies like that

where i can just put both of my hands into the pocket

and act indifferent, looking in all directions

but talking to the person right in front

Nike Sportwear pullover hoodies

Mickey Mouse Hoodies

 

and guess who else did we spot

a poor Snoopy with a love letter and heart-shaped balloon

i would have bought it

if i can just figure out how to give it a “nip-tuck”

contaminated

 

6.30 p.m.

back to the crazy sales one buck store

the crowd never receded

and it was even difficult to get into the middle 

crowd grabbing their loots

 

7.00 p.m.

found cha

saw it at Pavilion the other day

Eva actually said that it looked like a potato sack

reasonable right, since i love potato so much

i don’t mind carrying its sack around

Roxy Summer Hug

 

our usual mirror

i have got rid of my hair

they won’t recognize i have been here twice, i hope

our mirror spot

 

loots of the evening

a heavy grey recycled plastic bag

recycled bag

containing

Nike Sportwear navy blue hoodiesmickey grey hoodies blue bear backpack dark blue dress

 

everything for 20 rm

everything for 20 rm

and the tags confirmed my picks

authentic Nike tag E.D. Michaels by Daphna Tamler Tokyo Disneyland tag

 

not forgetting

this is going to last me for year

provided that my boss didn’t steal it from me

bunches of mask

 

this is one of the best marketing survey ever

this is one of the best experience ever

on how i spent 50++ bucks away

on so much loots

 

isn’t a shame

when girls around me are buying blazers

while i am in my own heaven, hugging my Mickey and Nike hoodies

good things never discriminate against ages

and they most probably will last for ages
