today was possibly the most satisfying shopping experience i've ever had (possibly...)
because i had a list of about 6 things i wanted to buy, and managed to cross out5
and they were quite specific things as well
*pat on the back

i think mum has been missing me a little bit so she got really excited about our shopping date today
and didn't complain about all the walking we did. <3

got some cropped trousers from zara

i have this feeling that they're meant to be 3/4s or at least 7/8s but for my ass:height ratio, they seriously JUST fit. 

they were the only skinny leg pants i could find in store, it was crazy. everyone was acting like it was boxing day.

(i jumped in this picture, but you can't tell)

two dresses from paper scissors

the navy one is pretty much almost exactly what i had in mind in my wardrobe essentials post so i'm really happy about it: go me!

also got a beige sweater from cotton on (with my 30% off voucher)

and a nude slip from myer (with my $20 gift card)

once i buy some shoes, 

i'll be sated for another 3 months.

since my last entry...

• spring arrived

• went to night noodle markets with wynnie and we left after a quick stroll around cos we're soft. i can't believe how many people line up for food they can get at existing restaurants. weird. we ended up at takeru, and it was the most random thing cos wyn had just called me to be like, what you doing? love spontaneous dinners. 
• received my credit card bills and cried. seriously need to cut down spending...next year xD
• went to orto trading company and had an amazeballs dinner with my loves. too lazy to recount but the food was good. and then after that, we went to galaxy world and me and cherry owned ddr. by owned, i mean...didn't fail. after that, we went to azuma's for sugarhit and it was just okay...

• the next night, we had dinner at takeru before sugarhit at glass brassiere. this one was GOOD.
• started training for new zealand. get fit hey!
• had an exam and finally had the epiphany that exams don't matter. for real, bro...
• after the exam, me and jenny frolicked over to pitt st mall to get names on coke cans. i got lizhiheng lol. and then we walked all the way to the rocks for a super super early dinner at pancakes. (but not before we procured some macarons from la renaissence)

• yesterday, we went to uni. and studied. before dinner at ayam goreng. we've been eating so much. ended up leaving at like...11:30pm? oh yeah, and we finally booked all NZ accommodation. never left travelling bookings until so late but living on the wild side this year~
• today, i dated myself. went shopping and bought the striped top from espirit i've been lusting after. then went and got a creme brulee from gloria jeans (which is no eggin' $5.90 or something ridic). then froliced over to the cinemas to take advantage of my cinebuzz points and watched midnight in paris. and mygosh, have been fantasising about returning to paris ever since. i think it's the first time i've watched a movie that has made me smile without realising. what a weird but wonderful experience. such a pretty movie, and has now made me want to go read me some great gatsby and ernest hemingway. bookdepository, here i come!

• finally, just dyed my hair. cut it earlier in the week. the below pictures are before the cut and dye...fingers crossed it'll all come out one shade, but you never know with hairstyling (home edition). will take pictures...sometime xD

so long medusa hair~

 hectic roots, prior to dying...

BACKWARDS BLOGGING TAKES HOURS OUT OF MY LIFE
SHOULD REALLY NOT BE LAZY AND JUST BLOG AS I GO
I've scheduled four more blog posts this week, covering events that happened...2 weeks ago (lol)
Don't say September wasn't exciting...

Anyway, this is a lazy entry about the past week

• Monday: went out with Janice and Michelle after uni. Went to the japanese place next to Azumas on George St. Then we went to Azumas for dessert (chiffon cake and green tea latte) and stayed there until the doors closed like complete rebels.

 

• Tuesday: I dressed like Janice Liew. Or so Twitter tells me.

 

• Wednesday: Went to Little Snail in the morning and got drunk before teatime (will have separate entry later this week). Then went to uni to play Creationary before leaving at 6 to go to Mizuya with jin family and church people. Food was okay, but singing was not enough. 

 

• Thursday: MY LITTLE BRO GRADUATED AND THEN I DROVE HIM TO HIS FRIENDS HOUSE FOR PRE-FORMAL FUN AND I FELT LIKE AN AMERICAN MOM. 

 

 

Awwwww... look at my little little bro tying a tie for that tall black kid

now consider how tall my brother is compared to the tall black kid (and all surrounding kids) and then compare how tall i am relative to my brother. and i was pretty much hanging around 17 year old giants for the better part of an hour. 

it was fun.

• Friday: Finished stats assignment early, at...4? That's half an hour early! Then we played Creationary with MT before Michelle, Janice and I went to Macchiato's for food and a girly chat. Went there for peking duck pizza WHICH WAS NOT THERE. Ended up with some weird seafood pizza that had a ton of rocket on it. Also had lamb pasta which was pretty good and the richest fondant on the face of the earth which was not what we ordered. Love hanging with those two, always.

• Saturday: bum. bum. bummed (i.e. postponed brunch with anita) until 5 when i drove down to burwood to pick up twin. Then Cherry came and picked us up at burwood. We ended up late for Ang's surprise party at Churrascaria. Meaning, when we got there, there were 20 odd people we didn't know, sitting around Ang. So we walked past and were all "OH! DIDN'T EXPECT YOU HERE!" Lol EPIC!FAIL. Then events occurred that once again reinforced the fact that i will be 4EVAH ALONE. Thanks life~

 

• Sunday: It rained. And then I went shopping with mum for hours and hours. And then I came home and jumped in puddles before i blogged for hours and hours.

 

$10 rainbow boardies from KMART. (*fingers crossed for Saturday)

 

$8 tiered cami from KMART.

 

30% off storewide sale at COTTONON. Got a blue plaid shirt in flimsy summery fabric and a pair of beige shorts for under $35 (?)

 

look at me ticking things off my wardrobe essentials list! got this cropped navy boyfriend blazer from DOTTI. it cost me $40 but i knew if i didn't get it i'd cry in my sleep (no.)
