confessions of a shopaholic

Dear Readers & Friends, I've been such a busy bee lately. my 1st semester for my 3rd year in the University has just started on Monday.., I now have to juggle with my time for the first few weeks - just to get used to it. Thank you for the comments, emails and support. Drop by more often, you're already missed!

SHOPAHOLIC ON THE LOOSE!
'nuf said.

Forever21 denim shorts. i finally bought YOU!
was having such a hard time tryin to pick out one out of so many!
i think i spent like 30minutes just trying to make up my mind.
pfft. indecisive brat! now i want another one; a stressed/ripped pair of dark denim shorts.

and YOU too; light skinnies.




Erin Wasson & Alexander Wang
Got the medium-high-waisted shorts.. Need a big bulky belt now.




the Romans did leave something behind;
THE shoes.

NINEWEST *clickable* Gladiator Flats.

totally bought YOU. yummy.



NEXT ON THE LIST.


Plain boyfriend shirt bought ;)
Black shorts; mine's been in the wash way too many times now.
Just look at those sexylicious ankle-boots! - Fendi *clickable*
Bag - Alexander Wang *clickable*

spotted this last week. but in black and brown.
hm. should i? i'm becoming a shoe-holic!!!! gah.

Gadgets

let's just be boys for one moment. these 3 cameras are such beauties.. want to get one but i'm torn in between decisions. fickle mindedlah me. these 3 beauties pretty much possess the same functions; smile detection, anti-blur, etc etc etc.

T700 in pearl/peach
it's so sleek, with no rough edges.. this baby is the latest model from Sony. totally upgraded and improved in some ways but sometimes, upgrades are not really that necessary - right? i love the design of this one although the price is a little bit too much for a 10.1MP pocket camera.

T700, plus minus RM1499.
- 4GB Internal Memory
- 10.1 Mega Pixels with Super HAD CCD
- Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens with 4x Optical Zoom
- 3.5" Full Wide Touch Screen LCD
- Double “Anti-blur” Solution: Optical SteadyShot and ISO 3200 High Sensitivity
- Intelligent Scene Recognition

T77/Skinny-T in limegreen
this is such a beauty! it's sooooo thin and light. what more, they have it in limegreen - so HOT! it's definitely a plus! it's a little bit too small/thin for the hand though :( but it's economical. jeez.

T77, RM999
- 10.1 Mega Pixels with Super HAD CCD
- Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens with 4x Optical Zoom
- 3.0" Full Wide Touch Screen LCD
- Intelligent Scene Recognition

T90 in hot pink & black.
pink stands out like mad but black's more subtle, and cool. a normal pocket camera.., with a not too bad price. but it's a little bit too thick compared to the two previous models above. it also has that hook-like thingy on the left which i'm not a fan of.

T90, RM1299
- 12.1 Mega Pixels
- 3.0" Clear Photo LCD Plus
- Intelligent Scene Recognition

confused. HELP!!!!

GUCCI Inspired

when was the last time you went goo-goo-gaa-gaa?
went for a haircut last week and i ended up shopping again! can't help it really,
i went into the shop and my eyes were totally on that 4.5 inch gladiator heels.

totally whack!
I'll be standing at 182cm with the shoes! LOL

GUCCI
goo-goo-gaa-gaaaaaaaaa...!!



even Mary Kate is wearing it..

looks somewhat like these pairs..
i bought a brown one anyway ;p
now, when should i wear it?

Changed the tune in my blog..
the previous music was getting depressing.
Well i'm not a big fan of malaysian music,
but this one's an exception, me likey.

SAWADEEKA IV, V & VI

and so, my bangkok post has come to an end (hooray?)
anyhow, i feel a tinge of guilt for not being as active as i was in the blogosphere


it's father's day today, so i'm taking this opportunity to wish each and every father out there;
especially my dad.
:) i know that you've been through so much to provide for the family,
sometimes you would rather carry all the weight on your shoulder just to see us happy.
i know that i've been ignorant towards your advice sometimes,
and may cause you to worry so much about me with my slightly rebellious attitude.
you're always trying to cheer me up when i'm upset,
tell me - where else can i find some one to replace you?
i love you daddy! ♥


alrighty, back to siam.
fact #1 - i put on weight during my bangkok trip NYAHAHHAA
look at how bloated my face was!
fact #2 - it's a shame that i dont quite remember the name of the places we went to :( my bad!

DAY 4

i look so sleepy and like i had an overdose - of FOOD.
anyway, we had brunch at some Thai stall by the road side,
it looked like "koay teow thng" but tasted way better!

u see what i mean when i told you i had an overdose of food in bangkok?! -.-

i love this photo, although my dad can't really pose
HAAHA

we went to central world shopping mall
walked quite a lot that day as i can remember.
i kinda dig the phrase on the billboard there "no matter what, it is our life!"




multi-story roads?
1 & 2 is for the trains
3 is for the pedestrians
4 is the main road

this is taken directly opposite central world
look at the colorful taxis! how cute! :)

another means of transportation
by boat. WAY cheaper but the river's so darn stinky and polluted!!!!

and so, we went on a couple of tut-tuts, and continued walking.
and we walked. and walked. and walked. and walked.
until our legs couldn't take it anymore.


when the sun retired and the moon got back to work,
we walked ourselves through a typical night life street!
saw a bunch of bars, pubs, massage parlors and such
it wasn't a weird scene to see a tourist holding hands with a local Thai girl (they're paid to like bring those tourists around and to you-know-i-know-lah)
it was actually gross because those Thai girls and trans-genders were obviously selling their bodies until an extent where they were dragging on your shirt and squatting in a very obscene yet alluring position while saying
"sir.. what can i do for you tonight"
EEEEEEEEEE *freaks out*

DAY 5/6
i started to feel homesick. seriously.

went for lunch at a 'floating' restaurant again; haha
actually it rained quite heavily the night before
and it flooded - ankle deep!

fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooodddddd

later on, we went to Chatuchak Market or more well known as the "JJ Weekend Market"
walked through a really pretty park :)

@ Chatuchak Weekend Market
bargains EVERYWHERE.

man, i wish i can like go to Bangkok every month or so to restock on my clothings.
anyway, i was buying this i-donno-what's-it-called Thai delicacy
it's wrapped in a leaf, with peanuts and such in it
it's really good!

we went back to Siam Paragon later on

cannot afford to shop in Versace,
so we took pictures instead lol


GOODBYE BANGKOK :)

i am soooooooo glad that my parents decided to take the plane home
the train ride was just ridiculous!!!
oh my penang, how i miss thee!!!

SAWADEEKA II & III

OH-KAY!
i know ive kept you readers awaiting for this post for too long;
i'm sorry - there's just a lot going on for the past couple of days.
my mom just got discharged from Gleneagles Medical Centre this noon after an operation.
no worries though, everything went on smoothly :)


back to my Bangkok trip!
this post highlights day 2 and 3 of it,
i just wanna get over and done with it; about 15+ photos i think lol.
so let the photos load for 2 secs, and start reading!

DAY 2

family photo - without my brother who's in sabah :(
off to SIAM Paragon!
everything is way too expensive there;
luxury items - branded goods.

Siam Popiah?

this one's my favorite though i have no idea what's it called!
sweet and crunchy at the same time :)
just plain YUMMMMEHHH!

you can't say you've been to thailand without riding on their tut tuts!

i remember walkin from street to street,
from one BTS station to another;
from one shopping complex to two other across the road.
what more could be more blissful than a 1 hour thai foot & shoulder massage!!!!
ONLY 129 baht! ish. so addictive.



DAY 3

had this for breakfast!
"koay chiap". pretty good stuff;
you can even add sugar and salt and chili powder to it!

from Huay Hwang station
took the train to godamnit-i-dont-remember-the-name-of-the-place

ooo market market!
"come madam. come see. fresh! only 10baht!
very nice."

after about 30 minutes -1 hour walk around that area,
our tummies started to grumble!
thank goodness there was a food stall in the market area
so we stopped by for a bite!

my "grape juice"?

it was such a hard thing trying to communicate with the Thai people
especially when they speak so little english
and the only sentences i know in Thai is "sawadeeka" (hello)
and "ka khun ka" (thank you) lol.

ANYWAY,

I wanted to order Grape Juice and i ended up pointing north-south-east-west
and she still didnt get the point...
but she served me something beautiful :P
a drink that matches my green top!!!!

one of them Thai delicacies.

on our way to chinatown!
have u ever wondered;
why does almost every country in the world have a place called chinatown?

i look SO tired; that's cuz we did some serious shopping and walking that day!
EVERYTHING IS SOOOOO CHEAP!!!
couldnt stop buying!
i wanna go back there n buy somemore!!!!!

my legs were so sore from all that walking;
thank God that uncle Alan came to the rescue
picked us up for dinner near Hwai Hwang or something
a floating thai restaurant with a live jazz band!
AWESOME ain't it :)

part of the restaurant
i was too sore to get up and snap photos of it lol




fishhhhhhhhhhhhh
and it's gooooooooooooooood

nothing beats the taste of this baby!

FINALLY !

before I start,
IM SO EXCITED!
KOH SAMUI IN 3 WEEKS!
BEACHESSS, PARTIESSSS!!!!
KOH SAMUI! OMIGOD. YES.
im so so so so so so so so so so so excited!

*joy to the world*
FINALS are finally O-V-E-R.

you can't imagine how happy or how thankful I am at the moment.
NO more romantic nights on the bed with the table lamp on - face to face,
my hands on its body; paying so much attention to even the smallest details.
what i meant right there is - late night revising.
those nasty eye bags from studying and from sleep deprivation are finally gone.
gone baby, GONE. my main consent right now is whether if I would score thoroughly
well or either just glade nicely through the passing line.

had lunch at Max's with my course mates after watching a movie at Queensbay.
it was that new Jackie Chan one - Forbidden Kingdom
Not too bad, I kind of enjoyed it!

i ordered roasted pork!
YUM YUM YUM YUM...!!!


did some shopping right after!
browsed through the new collections at MNG
i have A LOT to catch up upon.

forever21.
yeah. i know. i dont look good in dresses. omg.

the red headed princess (title given by goodboygonebad.com) has gone subtle today.
i was so nervous when i was getting my hair colored; as if i was at the dentists', ya know
i.dont.look.like.me.
BAAH. this is unacceptable :(
even some friends said "whoa, this is not you!"
but whatever lah. it's just hair.

sometimes, it is OKAY to be ordinary.
