The shoppaholic has been unleashed!!!!!! Gosh.... the Great Singapore Sale curse is starting to work on me..... let's start with the other day.... yeah.... that belt I bought. That was the first hint that KS was starting to fall under the curse. After that, there was this brochure that was sent to my place.... a pair of Fila canvas shoes were going at 70% sales! Gosh! Of cos I rushed down on the day of the sale, waited outside the shop till it was open, and rushed in to grab a pair of them nice canvas shoes!

After that, the Malaysia trip proved much worse... the perfect environment for the curse to achieve it's full effect. The things there are sooooooooo cheap!!!!!!!!! Let's start with the Papparoti bread there... it costs $1.20 in Singapore... and guess how much it costs there?! RM1.60!!!! GOSH! If you calculate, it costs just 60 cents in Singapore currency!!! My god....... half price!!!!! Of cos I bought as many as humanly possible! Like, 5 in all! Ok I know.. I'm already regretting.. should have bought much more right???? And there's the Levi's square cut jeans... they cost $139.90 in Singapore... guess how much they cost in JB...... RM169.90!!! Which is about S$80!!! URGH too bad my parents didn't bring enough Msian currency over there.... so I could not buy those jeans.. but it's ok.. I'LL BE BACK!

Of cos I did not return from the trip empty handed!!! How can I face myself in future if I do that?! I mean, the things there are soooooo cheap! At Giants, there's this shop.... where I saw this real cool pink Abercrombie top! Don't ask me if it's authentic... I seriously doubt so... I mean, if Abercrombie doesn't even have a flagship in Singapore, how is it possible it has one in Malaysia?! Not possible right?! So should be fake lar.. but it's pretty.. so I bought it anyway. Also bought one of those berms... that kind ya know... Jolin wore in one of her MVs in the J-game album? So cute right?! Yeah! Cool!

After that, the driver drove us to City Plaza, close to the immigration area. WOW! Much much MUCH more shopping there!!!!! GOSH! It's all soooo cool!!!!!!!! There I walked into this shop.. saw this bewteeefulll bangle.. yeah... those plastic kind. I was originally searching for jade.. you know? Those real pretty ones that those ah mahs like? Yeah! Soooo cool rite?! After I could not find jade, I looked for second best... those thick thick gold ones! Quite cool too!!!! Sigh.... can't find them again. In the end had to settle for third best.. some thick yellow plastic bangle.. the closest to gold I could find. Quite a steal! I mean, it costs only RM7.90!! Like... sooooo much cheaper than gold right?! Of cos!!! I LURVE IT!!!

After that bangle, I spotted this absolutely FAB black shoes! It's that kind of ballet shoes... real soft and comfy... with those cute kitten heels! Not that I like those heels anyway.. wish I could get rid of them. So difficult to walk in.. But I bought them anyway. Cos overall it's real pretty... save for the kitten heels. And it costs only RM49.90!! Like, only about S$20!!! So cheap! It's the first pair of comfortable AND pretty shoes I bought! So nice! Too bad had no time to shop after that.... had to go back to Singapore.

The curse followed me back to Singapore. Went that Bugis place again.... yeah... which means.... burned a hole in my pocket again. Stuff there are sooo cheap! Went to that Birkenstock place first.. to get a pair of them Birkenstock sandals for my bro's birthday present. Wanted to buy a pair for myself too.. too bad they ran outta brown color for my size... sigh.. will go back next week! Anywayz, spotted a top there.... a real cool top... it looks like it's double layered, with a checked shirt below and a pink tee layered on top. But actually it's only juz one piece. Only 10 bucks! So cheap!!!!!! After that, went to another real cheap cheap cheap budget shop... and bought a pair of black shorts again! Those Jolin style shorts! So cute! I like! Only S$16.90! Then went up the level 2 of the Bugis Village place... GOSH! It's another wonderful shoppingland that I just stumbled upon!!! Saw this real pretty bracelet.... so nice!!! I mean, it's like, the minute I saw it, I KNEW I had to get it.. I could juz feel our affinity... I mean, it was just WAITING to circle my wrist..... I just HAD to get it I just..... I just.............. *faintz*
After that, I spotted this real pretty necklace.... it's beaded... with those pretty beads and faux pearls. So pretty!!!! The lady at the shop said it was the type of necklace Jolin wore at her concert!!! But guess what!? It costs S$10.90!!! Walau... Ask me pay that amt for a bunch of BEADS?! U think I'm an IDIOT?! OF COS NOT!

In a huff, an indignant KS moved on to OG Alberts to continue her shopping spree with mummy! We were walking around like excited kids in the Toys'R'us.... and then we spotted this new range of lipcolor Maybelline has! It's a new range for the Watershine series. And it's going 2 for 20 bucks! So cheap!!!! So I chose one color and mummy chose another! Though I don't wear makeup in school and seldom wear makeup going out, but that lip color was the moisturizer type... I could always use it as a lip gloss right? Never mind that the color is barely visible, well... all lip glosses don't have visible colours right?! Right right right?!?
After that, my mum came up with this bright idea to check out the Fila outlet at OG. GOSH! My dream red Fila bag was going at S$32.90!!! Like, it originally cost S$49.90, and even after 20% discount at other Fila outlets, it still costs S$39.90! So I got a steal again!!! WHEE!!!

Next stop, Junction 8! The Bum jacket I reserved has arrived!!! Wow it's real cool!!!!! Yeah the Levi's trucker jacket-lookalike! WOW! It was on 50% discount! So it cost only like, S$27.90!! Guess what?! The Levi's one costs like, 70+ bucks!!! *laughs and claps in glee*
Next, mummy drags me to the Seiyu inside Junction 8 to check out the stuff inside. Saw this real cute yellow undergarment... with a cute fairy on it!!! Ok shall spare the guys the details... but it's really cute cute cute!!!!! So being super obsessed with cute stuff, I bought it!

Urgh.. don't ask me how much I spent...... let's see how much I've saved!!!! First there's the S$27.90 I saved.... buying the Bum jacket.. then there's the Fila bag..... then there's.... WOW!!! I saved so much!!!!! Gosh!!!!! I'm such a thrifty girl!!! It's a desirable trait!!! Yay!!! I'm sooo happy! *smilez*
