THE BODY SHOP SALE

ww and i went to suntec for the body shop sale today!

well, technically, he went for the IT show while i went for TBS sale.

i almost came out of the sale empty-handed bcos i didn't found anything that appeal to me. ALMOST ;)

but then, just as we were about to leave, there's this announcement that the special christmas edition carnberry body polish was on sale for only $8!

of cos i have to get that, the carnberry flavour is my favourite out of the whole TBS range.

so, in the midst of searching for the body polish, i found more stuff that didn't catch my eyes when i first surveyed.

adding more stuff into my bag, i exit out of TBS sale with a grand purchase of $50.60.

carnberry body polish-$8
carnberry room spray-$9.90
2 home fragrance oil-$12.90
tea tree oil-$9.90
tea tree concealer stick-$9.90

and tmr, i'm gg to post office to collect my bulky items. who in the world will have 7 bulky items to collect at one go?

i shld stop online shopping man, it's evil =)

yep, haven't blog in a while. i think the last time i blog was 12 jan?

i am feeling freaking mad. i spend 2 days doing my AW outline (AW is a module which u have to take in SMU if your GP sucks-->aka me--> aka C for A level). so anyway, i spent 2 freaking long days doing my AW outline, ya, i know i'm doing it very slowly and all, but u know.. i just want to put in the best effort for the final essay. i want to try and get my freaking A even through i know it's near impossible.

so.. i email my prof my outline and she email back 5 minutes later and ask me to REDO! omg, i dont even know whether she read that stuff or not, it is 3 solid Times New Roman font 12 pages k?

I forgo my Biz Law readings and my AS midterm studying for this crap that she told me to redo. i know i have to deal with it, but maybe tmr, i shall pretend i didn't saw her reply ;)

anyway, another thing to blog about is that i have a very cool mum =D

i wasn't very close with my mum before my dad pass away, and ya, like every family out there, we have our fights and quarrels where during one incident, my mum left home =X

however, my mum should be the coolest mum i think anyone can have. she is the one that told me to go and play when she realise that i'm coped up in school whole day. she is the one that told me to go bugis n buy clothes with her money even through i have a whole bursting warerode of clothes and i have enough savings to spend. she is the one that appreciate my buying of makeup (like the 72 eyeshadows palette and the pop lip gloss palette) and will tell me to apply it on her (eventhrough my skills sucks) before she goes for her dancing classes every sunday. she will be the one that ask me to sleep more and help me pull my curtains when i struggle to wake up. she is the one that passes me the keys readily to her car without any questions and just tell me to "Be careful "when i feel like driving in the middle of the night. she is the one that doesn't get mad when i scratched her car accidentally while turning in the carpark and just tell me to get it repaired using my own money. she is the one that doesn't mind if i stay out late as long as she know that i am safe.

my mum has been slogging her life out this past 3 years since my dad passed away, taking care of us, coping with the company and what not, taking care of the house, having her dance and singing lessons. in simpler words, she is the modern woman of the society with a career, a family and a social life. this may be easy for some, but certainly not my mum. after all, she was a housewife for at least 17 years and has now morphed into a strong woman =D

oh, and did i mention my mum is taking english classes as well? the classes were organised by MOM and they are twice a week, for 3 hours each. it is similar to the classes in school where you have to take tests and attendance and all that.

so, my mum is now having english classes on mon and thurs, and dancing classes on wed and sun. she also like to go singing on sat. how cool is that? :)

anyway, there is a whole lots of reasons why i think my mum is very very cool, and, i guess losing my dad kind of make me appreciate her even more. my mum never travel alot. she is a malaysian so she tend to travel between johor n spore, she also travel to thailand with us when i was 10 and i think her last trip was with my dad to china like 4 years ago?

so.. our whole family is going to taiwan this april! from 27 april to 2 may! it will be a short trip, but the main point is to reward my mum and she deserve to relax. my sis and i think it is better to travel as a whole family than waiting till my mum is retired and old and may have walking problems or such then we go travel.

i don't think i will be getting a whole lot of stuff since i'm going to USA on may 13, so i will just be going to taiwan to enjoy all the food. i can't wait to eat at all those nightmarkets! so yea, tha air tickets have been booked and the schedule have been roughly drawn out. the next time i have to do is to go to the UIC building to get the free travel guides from taiwan visitors association.

on a sidenote, i also can't wait for the loreal sale on 26 march, i want to go and buy my liquid foundation =D
