Finally watched "The Holiday" today! Thank goodness we managed to catch it... This show is ending soon. You gotta watch this heart-warming romance comedy. Cameron Diaz is so pretty in the show and I find that she's pretty real in the movie. She's got the laughing crows in her eyes. You know that she's not young although she's still very pretty with make-up in her tall & slim build. I sort of assumed that all hollywood actresses will definitely go for Botox to get rid of the lines. So I'm pretty surprised by her au de natural style! And you should see her house in the movie. OMG! It's so big, nice and amazing! Ok, I'm fantasizing for One moment.... I'm not sure if I have mentioned this before but I have a fetish for British accent. I like the way they speak. No slurring or joining of words. Short tones. So I was admiring at Kate Winslet and Jude Law when they speak in the show. Another show that will have strong British accent will be Bridget Jones diary with Renee Zellweger & Hugh Grant in it. Aww...
I went to Ness@Tampines Mall today and they were having some great discounts. Got myself a pants and a top at 50% off!!! My 1st time getting bottoms from there and I like it alot! My clothes for Chinese New Year are all settled!!! I hope this will not be my excuse for shopping. I'm determined not to wear it till then.
Oh ya, coming to my shopping trip last Thurs with my sis. Both of us went to the Isetan private sales and we shopped from 9am to 7pm! Initally, Isetan was not too crowded. By 10plus, it was so horrible that I almost died there! To queue up & pay was terrible. We decided to have our lunch at Mos Burger at 1pm and even there, also have difficulty finding space. I blew my top there but the staff was very good and patient with me. Ok, here comes the scenario. No available tables and a few group of people were looking for tables. There was no queue and nobody said there was a queue. There was this mother and son, a kiddo who were finishing soon. So I walked around and was aiming for them to finish. But of course, I did not stand right beside them. Then I saw that the Mother wanted to grab her things on the floor and I started to walk nearer to her table. She saw me doing that and suddenly sit down again and ask her kid to finish the Meiji milk. I was abit mad at that point in time but I told myself maybe it's coincidence that she wanted to move off and then sit down again. Whatever to soothe my hungry and tired soul. Finally she is moving her ass together with her kid & barangs. So I wanted to chop the 2 seater table while my sis is still collecting her items @ Fancl. Then the Mos Burger staff told me that's a Queue!!?!?!?!
I was like, "What? There's a Queue?" And the staff said another lady had been queueing and she will get the place first and I need to queue. I suspected this lady was after me. I was quite mad inside and got back to them,"Excuse me, may I know where is the Q? I have been here for the past 10 to 15 mins waiting for a table and there's nobody saying there's any Queue." The ever-polite auntie was smiling and asked me to join the Queue and say will get a table for me. WIthin 5 mins, I got my table. Their service is pretty good. Especially with their smiles and polite attitude, I must say. But if there's a queue, it needs to be properly indicated. But I think their store manager got it after what I did. Cos nobody was walking around looking for tables. All have to go through the "Queue system". Well, I'm glad to see that! =)
Anyway, I realised something on that day. and that is "My Sista is a Real Shopping Queen!" I never hear any mention of "feeling tired" from her the whole day. So I find it quite Champion. But I enjoyed being with her nonetheless... We went Isetan, Tangs, Paragon and Far East in that day. Found a new brand called Nicholas at Tangs and I quite like the items. Can take alook if you are there. Pretty much like their stuff. Bought one top @ 50% off too.
I thought of reasons to justify my buying of clothes last week and I came up with one which I thought was pretty good. Let me share this with you. Since I'm not travelling anywhere this holiday, it's OK to spend and shop in Singapore. I mean anyway, go overseas also shop. So I shall take this as a local shopping holiday. haha... Crap! But with no bonuses, etc, I'm trying not to spend unnecessarily. Plus, just coming back from Taiwan 3 months ago only with lotsa purchases liao. Anyway, No More Shopping liao! I'm pretty contented with let me see...3 tops and 2 bottoms purchased so far during this holiday.
Ok, time for me to turn in. Zzzzz....
