Shopping Is Happiness

There was a phrase that says "Whoever that said money can't buy happiness, doesn't know where to shop!" Well, I kinda agree and disagree. Haha! Of course, pure happiness such as love can't be bought with money. But then again, there are just some types of happiness can be bought with money. Such as SHOPPING!

Last weekend I shopped almost all over Kuching. Friday night I went for grocery shopping with mom at the newly opened Everrise at 4th Mile. It was renovated til so nice! The lights were so bright and the place feels much bigger though it's actually the same size. After mom bought her stuff, we went opposite, Boulevard.

I wanted to look for shoes and my computer mouse. And since mom has yet to see Boulevard's new phase, I suggested us to shop there while waiting for time to pick my bro. There, I managed to find myself a normal looking mouse. Friends all told me Logitech is good. Oh well, since the price is reasonable, I got myself one at Boulevard IT Store. But luck wasn't on my shoes side. =(

RM19 Logitech mouse. I just need a very normal one. No gaming use. Don't need the laser high tech type also. Just optical will do. Hehe =)

On Saturday, I went to Spring right after work. Shoes hunt again. Nose and Vincci. Though the sales were huge but nothing for me =( It's either no nice shoes or my size is no longer available. Sigh.......Tough luck!

On Sunday, after dropping my bro at his friend's house as usual. I went off to airport. Yes you heard me right. Airport! Goodness, the departure hall was so packed!!! At that moment, I only had one wish, to get a one way ticket out to anywhere. Haha! If only I can do that =) Maybe I would. One day I shall try.

Anyway, previously I did saw a few nice pairs of flats at airport. But this time when I went, tough luck again. The nice ones were sold out. The rest, kinda pricey =( After lingering around for few more minutes, I went off. Couldn't bear seeing people hugging all around at departure gate. Hate that moment.

Off I went to Sentosa. Wahahahaha! That was my first time driving alone to 7th mile. I remember there's a shoes shop inside the Unaco building with nice shoes. So I went to have a look. And found myself inside SOS. So apparently, that shoes shop inside Unaco building is SOS. Nice. The sales was pretty good too. Was very tempted to get myself a pair of heels but luckily I did not. Managed to secure myself a nice pair of ballet flats. Love!

Later, I went off to nearby shop, IOI Store. The word SALES written hugely on the banner sure attracts me alot. I went in and came out empty handed. Why? The nice pair of sport shoes that I saw, no other size available. Sigh....And I was left with RM60 in my wallet. The others without sales, needless to say, pricey.

So I left with disappointment. I was thinking where should I go next. I have 3 destinations. To MJC and look around the many shoes shop there. Or to Lea Centre at Hopoh. Or......to look for food first =P In the end, I decided to give someone a surprise and headed over to 4th Mile Everrise. Ho ho ho!

And it turned out, my surprise cost me RM50. Hahaha! Thanks to that someone, I managed to secure myself a pair of sport shoes at Bata =) But I'm happy. At the end of the day, I went home happily with 2 pairs of shoes.

Mission accomplished!

Friends and Effort

Image
Friends. They come and go. Everyone cross path with you for a reason. Either to be your lifelong dependable friend or just to teach you a lesson. Some come and go as quick as the quicksand. Some stayed on for couple of months and take their departure once the mission completes. While some, is just a phone call away since day one.  So how do you know who belongs to which category?  The answer is, you don't. Living for 30 years, having friends for as long as 20 years, I realised that it is all about the effort. The phrase, 'It takes two to tango' is so accurate that it can even predict the rainy and sunny days. What kind of effort are we talking about here? We're talking about the effort to make friend(s) and keep up the effort to make that friendship last with even the smallest step. Have you ever thought about the effort you make? What did you do to keep that friendship? Or the effort your friend(s) made to meet up, to call, or merely just a simple text...

Dr Sun Yat-Sen's Resident

Chinese New Year is officially over. Gotta roll back to normal work days no matter how much you hated it. But well, it's another start! So heads up peeps! Stay strong for year 2011!!! The best has yet to come! Does anyone here knows who is the first president of China? Let me bring you back to history =D I'm a sucker in history subject in school but I think this vacation had taught me alot about China's history. I get to know who is the president, who is the patriot and who else is who. Some of you may say that this is boring but I think what's boring is just texts on books. Try going to a school where they bring you all over the historical place. I'll tell you it's fun! I'm lazy to introduce much. If you want more info, you can always ask Google. Haha! Here is Dr Sun Yat Sen's house in Guangzhou when he was young. Man this house stood there for over 200 years!!!! He was a Chinese doctor who then known as the Founding Father of Republican China...

Random Updates 12-07-2011

I feel like a lost lamb now. I just want to crap everything out and off. You know how life can be at crossroads at times? But man, mine isn't at crossroad now. It's as if I walked into a dark forest and can't find my way out. I've been feeling down and stressed and I don't know, maybe even depressed. I don't know who to talk to about this stuff. I can't talk about it to people around me cos they will all say about the same old stuff. What am I talking about? It's my career, my future. Previously I have goals and aims and future dreams. But it seems to have shattered into pieces cos certain reasons keep pulling me back. Back in secondary school, I dream of becoming an accountant. A chartered accountant just so I can do the easy job. Sign the documents and get paid for my signature. How easy is that and how stupid I was to even think that it's an easy course. So off I went to major in accounting and my life was peaceful. It was until college that eve...
