couldn't get to sleep last night even though it was nearing 1.
so me and my cousin decided to pamper ourselves and do beauty masks while lying down.
initially i thought i would be getting a lavender one so at least it would help me sleep better.
but alas, when i opened the pack, it smelt of herbs. mans. i was like eew! but no choice.
but hey! when my cousin helped me put the mask on my face, it felt so nice and cooling.
didn't know that i actually fell asleep after that. heh. and i woke up at 430 to get my butt to work. so it's probably about 2 hours of sleep.
then! after work, i felt like going shopping.
initially wanted to hit Namdaemun. (remember my promise about going back there before the end of november?)
but i thought about how i would be so helpless not being able to talk korean to the stall keepers, i decided against it then.
so i took the subway home and wondered what can i do to ease my itch of shopping.
then i remebered that i went past this shopping mall of sorts while heading to the post office that time. so i kay-poh-ly went to the mall and looked around.
man! there's a whole bunch of accessories to shop there la~
and there's manicure shops too!
(motivates me to leave my nails and get them pampered soon)
so i ended up buying earrings!
(no wonder)
and i got these!
this one is a lady-like-ish design that i thought would be so easy to match because of the variety of colours .
this one is a super simple but nice because the colours complement each other so nicely.
this one is a ballerina that i think's so princess-y. pity they didn't carry it in pink!
and this one is a one sided shopping bag and one sided shoe. i love the colour and the fact that it's simply adorable!!
and i got all these for 30 bucks. they guy selling it gave me discounts and even after the discount, i bargained and he had no choice he sold them to me.
i know it's a bit ex when compared to singapore standards, what's with the 3 pairs for $10 or even $5. but hey!
i dare say the quality here is so much better and it looks so much nicer too!
and it's all designed by the guy himself!! -gasps-
so i think if he went to singapore and set up a shop in like far east or something, i think he will make big bucks.
that's unless stingy singaporeans don't mind the price for that.
so Namdaemun have to wait till this weekend or when my aunt's over and i finish work early then we could go shop again.
goodies.
trinklets.
souvenirs.
nail polishes.
ah!!
so much things to buy and pack it by the end of the month~!
and i got my pay (again) in cash!
spend spend spend!!!
but i gotta try to save save save.
so i can go for holidays.
shopping sprees.
eating marathons.
dvd-renting marathons.
party-ing. in LOVE,
