a hole in my wallet

On wed, the day after my bday, went shopping with bestie for my bday prezzie! We went to suntec after the very stressful socio tutorial (shall not mention more abt dat). After we walked for hours, looked at bags, clothes, shoes and more bags, finally i decided on a bag from F.L.Y. This is only the first part of my present. Hehe...:) Looking forward to my valentine's special handmade gift from bestie! =D
We came upon this bag at suntec and it was love at first sight for me! So both of us decided to get the same design tgt. It reminded us of the secondary school days when we once used to own the same bag too. Nostalgic...now i have to admit dat i'm old alr.
Yesterday, on impromptu, i bought a skirt from BEGA at amkhub. I didnt plan to buy anything when i patronized BEGA. Was just looking at some formal skirts and blouse for future interviews. Then, the very friendly salesgirl came over and introduced me some skirts and blouses. The next thing i noe, i was in the fitting room! and the bad thing is there was no mirror inside so i have to come out to see how the clothes fit. And the salesgirl gave me more blouses and skirts and asked me to try them. After trying and trying one after another, i bought the skirt which costs $39! I would feel very bad not buying anything after trying so many pieces so there goes. I will need the skirt in the future anyway and this skirt can be formal and casual and most importantly it is not as "long" as the other more formal skirts. As you all noe, i am quite vertically challenged therefore those skirts which is supposed to be knee-length for taller ladies will look ugly on me as it would be over the knees and i would look like an aunty! Now i have one formal skirt hanging on my "wardrobe". :))
Today went to take formal photos with dar at amk. I usually prefer the skills and services provided by bridal salons. After today's experience at a fujifilm shop, I swear i would nv go to those kind of films dat develop photos to take my passport or any other photos! Firstly, the shop's attendant's attitude seriously has a problem for the one i went to today. Secondly, the camera they used are normal digital camera which i think the one at my hse, if not for it being spoilt, would be a better one than it! Thirdly, the reason why i would say that is becos the quality of the photos is not satisfactory. They merely jus cropped the photo out and printed it and they didnt even bother to adjust the colour of the photos using photoshop. dar's ones looked so weird - his photos has yellow patches on his forehead and shoulder probably becos of the lousy camera!And my head was tilted slightly and they didnt even adjust it! Utterly disappointed. I've paid 5 bucks for 4 lousy photos and poor services! Pui!
As we headed to the hawker center for lunch, passed by BATA and saw dat they're having 50% off their heels and shoes. Tried on this white heels and another brown heels. The white heels looked nicer while the brown one is comfortable. But after trying a few more times, i tink the white one fits better. However, the heels was quite high (abt 3 inches). For someone who very very seldom wear heels, i tink it would be very unstable and a torture for my feet! The thing is i dun have any heels at home which i can wear to the career fair and even to future interviews and formal events! So am still contemplating whether i should buy it or look out for more choices and preferably lower stable heels.
