Shop-a-holic

There's nothing makes me more happier (and guiltier) than spending money like nothing in a mall. The excitement and guilty pleasure of carrying those bags (big or small) visiting one shop followed by another searching for 'the one' that caught my eyes, and then 'own' it! And I felt fucking FABULOUS both hands carrying so many bags walking out of the mall big steps with my head high. Now, why am I suddenly think about "Devil who wears Prada?!"

Would you help me with the tie?

Yes, shopping shopping shopping! Not really a shop-a-holic myself really considering the fact that I normally do BIG shopping once a year before Chinese New Year. Well, I initially thought of saving money for my new car. But my so friendly and lovely sister actually talked me down from the tree and dragged me into the mall. There you go. Nothing more tempting than looking at those gorgeous models on the wall wearing great shirts or pants. And wandering in the gent's clothes department, I am so dead. Everything I touched must be conquered! I so wanna buy them all!

Angel : "Hold it, Ryan! You should save the money for your new car, remember?!"
Devil : "Oh come on! You've just got your bonus! No harm spending some!"
Angel :"No, Ryan! Keep it! Forget about new clothes. You have tonnes in your closet!"
Devil :"Those are old! Look, everyone's wearing new clothes for new year!"
Angel :"No no no! Old clothes is still good clothes!"
Devil :"Come on, buy one or two, no harm. One big car cost thousands, yet one nice shirt less than a hundred! It's CNY, go pamper yourself!"

Touch it, will ya?!

Fuck it! Forget about about everything. What matter most is NOW! Present is a gift! So I unleashed the evil in me. And I shop!

Searching through the gent's clothes department, I grabbed whatever I like and tried them all in the fitting room. Hardly glanced at the price tag, I just grabbed whatever that please my eyes or makes me feel good. Oh, man! The feeling was good! My parents who followed me were shocked! They must have thought I was crazy! Especially my mom. She certainly thought that I was out of my mind for not looking at the price tag and simply tried that expensive shirt.

And things got worse when my sister got in. We almost visited every single shop and tried a whole damn lot of clothes (except those shop where "No Trying!" sign was put up). And yes, we not-worrying-ly said "Yes!" to this jeans and that blouse to the sales girls and she smilingly wrapped them up and we paid. So fabulous!

Ahhh... shopping is fun! Now I know why those girls like shopping so much. Not that I don't know shopping is fun. But to really experience it myself, well, it just make me so much more certain that it is, indeed, FUN FUN FUN!!! No wonder all those rich aunties like shopping so much!

Are you rich?!

Guess what? I should get a rich boyfriend! Rich, hunky, caring, humourous, and RICH boyfriend! Damn, I am so shallow!

p/s: I do know how I will suffer later when the credit card statement arrive later. Don't be surprise when you see a post about the consequences I get for the over-spending I did in the coming future.

X'mas Shopping

Yeap, the title tells it all. I went to One Utama today and shop. Been wandering around the MPH Bookstore and bought a few gifts for another Christmas Gift Exchange Party tomorrow night. Ain't gonna tell what I have bought, but surely one of them is no cheap stuff.

Everything I own is no cheap stuff!

I already know who I should buy the gift for (after randomly picked up a name from the almost look like "The Goblet of fire" thing). Apparently I have to buy a gift for someone very special to me. Well, someone I admired and almost fell for, until I have to painfully admit he's straight and got married with a lucky lady. So, now we remain good friends. And no, he doesn't know I am... who I am. That's fine. It's better to keep it this way.

And I actually bought another few christmas gifts, specially to another few men who are my good friends. I thought it's nice to buy them gifts just to let them know I care for them and glad that they're my friends. I think it's always nice to be nice to others, especially to those that you really care about.

You do know how to take care of me, right?!

However, I really enjoyed the shopping though. Part of it is because I got to see the Christmas decoration in One Utama. I was like... "Oh, look at that drummer boys in the center court! And those tiny little christmas trees...". Feel so good! With all the christmas songs and the people carrying bags of good and christmas presents... It's like every air I breath is christmas-ize! Hahaha... What am I talking about?!

Anyway, another reason I enjoyed the shopping is, of course, I got to enjoy some eye-candies. Oh my, I can just sit in one corner and enjoy hunks walking by. I even saw a hot hot HOT HOT (I wish I could stress the word more) hunky Caucasian stud in the Padini Store. He was wearing sleeve-less round-neck shirt, short-pants and wearing sporty-shoes. And OMG, his pecs, his bulky arms, his firm butt... oh, I tried not to stare at him too much to avoid causing tent at my crotch area. And I later noticed he was checking out a hot chick inside the store. Urgh, such a turn off. Still, I always appreciate the beauty of male. Especially male body. :p

Are you staring at me?!

And the funny thing is, I did not buy anything for myself. Been shopping in One U for like hours. I walked in fancy gifts shop, wandered around Padini's concept store, and even MPH bookstore... and yet I found nothing good for myself. I don't mind really. After all, the purpose of being there in One Utama is to buy the christmas gifts. And I have done my part.
