SALE

Since coming back from HCMC, wj and i have been bumming around, enjoying the cool weather, occasional drizzle + abit of shopping, mostly in the late mornings. There has been so much buzzing around Orchard road with most shops having the word SALE splash across their windows.

SALE.
an amazing word. a word that draws the working class, the homestead mother, avery confused dad,the college student eager to buy a right present, the techie who yearns for the itouch, a shopaholic frantic to get the best buys.

i dunno about u, but when i see women at a zara sale, sweeping hands across the racks. a gush of adrenaline swims thru me. i panic. sometimes i even break into a cold sweat, thinking right at that very moment, she might be taking the very last piece of XXS, XS or even S size blouse, skirt, dress or tee that i have been eyeing on!

but age has been catching up. And i can no longer do a full day shopping. Nowadays i start about noon and by 4pm, im almost dead. i even left wj to do his own shopping at Zara and Guess while i sat at the bench waiting outside for him, playing on his dopod. But the guy cant seem to do his shopping without me. heehee...he came back to me empty handed.

oh wells, what is a blog for anyway but to write everything and nothing. SO this festive season, despite my cramps and backaches, headaches and occasional grumpyness...i'm pleased to announce that both wj and i caught a 10:25am Golden Compass Movie and we have done some shopping afterall with swarms of people flocking down orchard road + loads of window shopping as well.
