Freak out! Its the week of Splurging!
Finally went for my rebonding couple days ago ^.^
Platform salon at Orchard Emerald, a mere 98 bucks for my long hair.
Nice pple there :)
Even went back for some touchups ytd at the roots when i wasn't very satisfied, n they were all smiley about it. But then again, it may be becos i was trying to be nice bout it too n not be a difficult customer.
But overall, quite satisfied with it; at least its not as flat n scalp-clinging as my previous two rebond jobs.
(Haha, as they've done a good job on me, feel inclined to give them a small advert ;p )
Went shopping at Bugis with Vivian after that, n i'm soooo happy!
Bought my bag n slippers at long long last!!! X)
n its as close to my dream bag as can be - a pale gold ladies bag (sorry, dunno how to describe, jus take my word for it when i say its damn chio) thats big enuf for me to bring to sch n chio enuf to bring anywhere, shopping, town, functions, parties, chiong, n if i take very gd care of it, i may even be able to use it for Chinese New Year!
*whoots*
Saw a similar bag (but colour not as chio) at Far East Plaza for a freaking $49.90 or $69.90, but knew the same products wud be loads cheaper at Bugis street, thats y i'd been hankering to go there shop since i've seen some of those dreamy bags (that unfortunately costs a freaking bomb) at Far East.
n guess how much i got my bag for in the end at Bugis?
A mere 25 bucks!!!
i could sing n dance in joy i tell u!
its so chio~!!! >.< X) *.*
But the only down side of it was that its made of the kind of material which colour would fade with prolonged use. Even tho the bag could lasts me 2 years or more, its colour (around the handles n straps) prob wun last more than 6-mths to a year of constant use.
Aiyah, mai hiam buey pai lar!
Its not like pple wud notice handles n shoulder straps much rite?
n besides! its only 25bucks!
Man, i've died n gone to heaven! X)
Its so chio i'm telling u, its so chio!
n to match the occasion, i bought gold-chromed flip-flops too. A mere 5 bucks. Lolx!
Are they a steal or wad??!
If u're wondering y i'm so happy to buy stuff, the answer is obvious isn't it?
I DUN GO OUT MUCH!!
LOLX! =P
Or at least, since i'm so not an impulsive buyer, it takes me ages to shop, compare prices, shop somemore, before i decide to buy anything (aside from food n grocery =p); i dun get to spend much money or buy much stuff that aren't absolutely necessary.
(My rebond is an exception - i had procastinated 3months before getting it done.)
Saw this cross necklace at Bugis that i wanted to buy since my own cross necklace is tarnished already n i gotta replace it, but couldn't justify spending ten over bucks for smth unneccessary... (my bag n shoes are giving out, they are necessary).
Ooooohhh...
So happy, both of us found wat we wan there (vivian her bag too).
Such a successful shopping trip!!
Bugis' stuff are so cheap lor ( i wun say dirt-cheap, its an exageration i wish was true, cos dirt is free), its always worth it to curb ya impulse while shopping in Far East Plaza (or elsewhere for that matter) n make a trip to Bugis street/village to see if u can find the same or similar products at a much marked-down rate.
n u can haggle there too!
*smilez*
Wud def go down Bugis village the next time i need smth ^.^
