the current affair
Life has been alright to me for the past week. Apart from the fact that I found out my lady boss has breast cancer. She is like my second mum and I could only pray that it's nothing too serious. She would have to go for an operation this Thursday. It was shocking but I've been trying not to think about it too much.
Last Sunday was well spent. I was out at the city just to relax. It seemed incredibly quiet as people were flocking to the BDO somewhere away from the city. That could only mean one thing, a definite good day to shop!
I went to Kookai. I ran out of ideas what to get so I just bought a top and a belt for a friend's belated birthday. I doubt I'm actually gonna wear the top come to think about it. I've always loved their skirts though. Okay, not all the time but close to that.
The skirts from the new collection seem alright but I prefer the previous collection which of course, nothing much left and those that were there are heavily discounted. If there is one thing that I hate, it would be shopping in Kookai during sale because some of the stuff that I bought not long ago were now discounted up to 75%. Ugh...
I've been to MNG a lot. I always manage to find tops that would be able to match my skirts and pants here. MNG stuff are way much cheaper (half the price) back home but the feeling is different whenever I tried to shop there. The crowd is ridiculous because everyone can afford it and I can't find my size because girls are generally "smaller" back home.
I'm not getting S anything for Valentine's coz I think there isn't any need for it really. I just don't have the mood to shop for people these days. Not even myself. Weird! It is probably because my girls are not back yet, hence the kick is not there.
I'm still missing home a lot. I don't know when will I get over this but I really do hope it will be soon. I was so tempted to buy myself an air tix and fly back just for a few days but I doubt it's really gonna change anything. It would still be the same when I come back here.
I'm a sucker of Baskin-Robbins and it's no longer a secret given the right time, which is all the time, I can down a medium size tub in an hour.
On top of the list of my favourite flavours, it would be Love Potion 31. It's vanilla raspberry ice-cream and it's suppose to come back in store for Valentine's Day. I've been harassing Baskin-Robbins everyday asking whether the stock is in yet. I wasn't the only one. Apparently a lot of people have been asking for it.
So dear Baskin-Robbins headquarter in Sydney, LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS.
I'm beginning to lose my patience and I think it's a ridiculously stupid marketing idea to not give the customers what they want when they're demanding it. I, for one is someone who has short attention span. I usually just let go.
This waiting game is frustrating.
And I hope second mum will be fine. God, please give her the strength to go through this.
