bugis street shopping
wah~ MY LEGS ARE BREAKING! MY HEAD IS CRACKING TOO! haha. what a day! woke up at 7 and since then i've never even taken a short nap yet. now i'm really tired. tomorrow i still have to woke up early to accompany my parents for a trip to tiong bahru market to buy fresh and nice ingredients for our steamboat dinner. why? because tomorrow is my brother's birthday!
woke up today at 7 with a terrible tummy ache. so terrible that my tummy still ache when i was at the void deck of my student's house. in the end i had to cancelled today's lesson. it was such a waste of busfare. but i cant possibly teach when i'm not feeling well. so i head home instead.
after a short rest(plus a few rounds of majong. haha) at home me and my sis hit the streets again! (^_^) haha. went bugis to buy my brother's birthday present. 'shua-gu' me haven visited bugis street yet since its revamp. really big and good improvement they had done to the whole stretch of shopping streets.
firstly they added some kind of air-con that improve the ventilation inside there. so it wasnt so stuffy when u shopped. this is DEADLY important for someone like weak me, who will almost faint just from a teeny weeny lack of oxygen supply. :P also they partitioned a big section off to sell finger food. which is nice. erm, its always nice to eat and shopped at the same time. but too bad i had stomach discomfort, so no-no for the oily finger food. ate korea food at bugis food court instead. very nice for food-court standard. but i ate only half of the food and gave the rest to my sis. all because of my tummy again.. :(
bugis street had so many shops that my eyes got dizzy just shopping around. helped mum bought a perfume for guys as a present for my bro. then my sis bought a bag for him. after that my sis went round buying pants. think i'm going back there the next, next week after i've got my pay for a 'xue-ping'. haha. think the worst thing i've ever learnt from my idol maxiaoling is being a spendrift! oh dear, such a bad habit... always having plans for my next pay even before i get it... maybe its just a natural, inborn instinct for gals?
after that we headed back to the nice and comfy air-con shopping center. there i bought a watch for my bro. quite nice. even paid extra money for a box to go with the watch. my bro better like the watch! haha. then saw the mickey printed clothes... MUST-BUY! my mind is made up to go back to bugis to shop! haha.
i even bought a doggy biscuits and a new bell for lucky when we arrived at tampines mall. didnt know lucky actually LIKED getting presents till mum and dad got back from their trip last week with only presents for the humans. the look he gave me when i unwrapped the plastic bags then. in the end he peed on the bags even... -_- so this time got him a little gift. :)
haha... lucky really liked the bell and biscuits. unwrapped his 'presents' for him the moment i got home and changed. gosh, he even sat still and hung his head low for me to put on his collar for him...haha. vain doggies.
and just now finally found time to watch the short video my jie had made for her u project and had kindly made a copy for me. gosh my jie soo mature when captured on screen! quite a nicely made video. too quiet with the absence of background music. but can see they really made an effort to produce the video. and i really salute the guys in the video: need to touch and hold bras! haha.
kk, a really long and boring blog. guess its because i'm tired.. Zzz...and after all those walking and looking and buying, i actually forgot to help lucky buy a birthday present for my bro (O_o) plus a wedding anniversary gift for mum and dad! urgh! think i'm going to tampines mall tml afternoon.
sQ: haha, of coz i'm still into hk dramas! :P of all my blog entries, u had to stumbled upon the one on hk dramas review (which i only write once in a blue moon)!! anyway, think i'll only stopped watching hk dramas when tvb close down... haha.
