I woke up today, after a rather fulfilling sleep, without the nightmares this time, and prepared myself for a day of shopping. What a day it was!
After taking the metro, (getting separated from my brother Alvin, once) we arrived at 313 @ Somerset and we waltzed off (not literally) to Paragon, where I met up with the lovely
Rachel.
The expensive and overly classy clothes weren't up to our taste, and after getting some lollies @ Marks & Spencer, which were brilliant, we settled for a brunch at Dome. GHERKINS~
Then we visited Topshop, where I (sadly) once again, got nothing, even though I've been longing for numerous items. I creyz. The 'perks' of being a cheap ass Asian. We then went to Forever 21, and nothing really caught my eye, but I managed to snag a striped bow headband for Harmony.
My favourite place by far was Scape, OOOOOOOHYEAH! Sales, sales, sales! :~) I'll post a picture with my haul, but it soon began to drizzle, and Rachel left to catch the bus.
BOY LONDON Cropped Tank - $19.99 @ SCAPE // Black Felt Bowler Hat - $17.99 @ H&M // Horizontal Striped Bow Headband - $7.00 @ FOREVER 21 // Faux Leather Shorts - $17.00 @ SCAPE // Polka Dot iPhone Clutch - $19.99 @ FOREVER 21 // Golden Leaf Necklace - $7.50 @ SCAPE // Mint, Lavender, Turquoise and Black iPhone Gel Cases - $10.00 @ SCAPE // Sophie Monk Hydrating & Whitening Face Masks - $3.00 @ Guardian // 4 x Stickers (Not all pictured) - $2.00 @ SCAPE // China Glaze Nail Polish "TECHNO" - $8.00 @ SCAPE // Kiiroitori Satchel - $5.00 @ SCAPE // Cookie Monster Headband - $12.95 @ Universal Studios // AnTi SoCiAl/Skull Pencilcase - $6.00 @ TYPO // No Talk, Just Water, Waterbottle - $6.00 @ TYPO //
Wow, that took a while to type, LOLOL.
We then had dinner at East Ocean Chinese Restaurant @ Takashimaya with Uncle Peter, Aunty Stephanie and my cousin Pearl. We had lots of dishes, the beef and capsicum being particularly remarkable and scrumptious.
Afterwards we (Pearl and I) walked to Kinokuniya, where I collected another haul of books that I'm dying to read.
The Book Thief - Markus Zusak
Will Grayson, Will Grayson - John Green & David Levithan
Looking for Alaska - John Green (Already read it, but I wanted the copy with the new cover)
Love and Other Perishable Items - Laura Buzo
Every Day - David Levithan
I had desperately wanted Warm Bodies, but to no avail, Pearl and I couldn't find it anywhere within the massive store. Le sigh.
After packing for the flight tomorrow, I'm ready to go, and pumped as ever for Hong Kong in a few days.
A good end to a great day with my best friend and my family, and one of the most productive two days I've ever experienced during the holidays.
