went shopping with mommy dearest on friday...

think i probably get my criticism from her too...
plus, it's great to go shopping with her cause she has her credit card.

only problem is that she usually hates shopping.

and the only reason why she asked me to go out with her was so that i could "advise" her on what to buy...

so anyway, she ran out of concealer so we both went down to the whole make up place in tangs to choose a concealer..
and lipstick cause she ran out of that too.

(my mom has great self restraint. she goes shopping and buys exactly what she wants.. and nothing else..)

and she needed a new pair of sunglasses cause she cracked the earlier ones lens...

so we went to dolce and gabanna...

and then she saw these court shoes...
and started screaming on how i actually dare to wear 5 inch heels after i fractured my ankle... and how i always come back with deformed feet cause my shoes are too small...

so..
we spent 3 hours at dolce and gabanna trying on court shoes.

or rather, i spent 3 hours trying on court shoes, while she picked out her sunglasses.. (the one with the most uv protection...how typical) in like 10 minutes...

ah well...

the shoes are *still* too small...

anyway, we decided to go to marks and spencer after that, but we were getting tired after walking around for 4 hours, so we just sat on one of those benches outside mrt people watching. my mom was wearing her new sunglasses and i, her old, cracked ones.

that took half an hour.

people sometimes would stare at us. we would just stare back.

haha. fun.

and then we went to marks and spencers.

i bought sparkling water and chocolates.
she bought rasberry tarts or something..

and then i had to lug the 1.5l bottle of sparkling water all the way along to tanglin mall...

then we walked around there for a while...

and then we came home.

some "family bonding" over there.

not many moms dare to sit down with their 15 year old daughter in the middle of orchard road with sunglasses on staring at everyone who walked by for half an hour..

and then we drove up to starhub's warehouse at ayer rajah to get my cable modem fixed.
according to my mom, it's *my* modem... so i'll have to be the one who has to go around in that ulu jungle lookig for a ware house.

found it in the end.

quite proud of myself.

maybe it's like training for ns.

speaking of ns, she wants me to go fo it too...

ugh.

"if you feel like it, you should join ns, you know..."

haha. yeah right.

5 days of obs was bad enough.

3 years of ns filled with overbearing sergeants and stinky boys?

no way.
