hello darlings, greetings from New York!!! it's our fourth day here and we have spent 2 days lazing around at home. we are such bummers but there's no rush as we are gonna be here for the whole friggin month. i should have book my return tix a week earlier than when we are gonna leave this place as it's gonna be my mother's 50th birthday but there's no way i can change my dates. dammit!
so the whole of today was spent buying groceries for tonight's independence day party at home, me cooking mash potatoes and ekka making us a mega yummy burger for lunch! it's 5.38pm now and im bored. everyone's asleep back in singapore. :(
everyone back at home has been asking me what have i bought so far..but believe it or not..me and ekka have yet to buy anything. not completely nothing but almost nothing. its rather shocking actually cause i expected myself to shop till i drop. we went to SOHO again yesterday where the streets are filled with brands like f21, H&M, Topshop, Victoria's Secret etc. To my disappointment, we didnt get anything at all. it came to a point that i wanted to buy something just for the sake of buying! it didnt feel good to be shopping for so many hours but nothing in return. but i guess that's a good thing too, since im really tight in budget!
another note, all the clothes found at these shops are hugeeeeeeeeee in size. its almost impossible to find a size S or it would be in the last piece. and the accessories i bought on SALE from H&M during my last visit in HK were selling in full price here. i was so shock to see that! seems like H&M in HK has better collections of accessories and cothes too. i totally didnt expect this.
to be honest, me and ekka are kinda bored here already and we feel like total losers to be feeling this way. this isnt what we expected to be. all the hype for nothing. but we have yet to make a trip down to statue of liberty, outlet shops etc. so hopefully, our moods will have a drastic change soon! hahah. so much walking to be done here. our legs are aching everyday. so much for bringing nice heels to wear here! lol. cab fares cost more than 40USD to go home when its jus 2 train station away. that made me miss being in singapore.
alright, this is getting too lengthy but this is an update for my favourite people back in Singapore. miss you guys <3
p/s : i still cant get over it that i didnt bring my jacket, belt, necklaces, rings, flats, stockings, any bottoms. i really suck at packing. i will never pack last minute again! :( this also means that i've to buy the above items for my stay here.
oohh!! and i thought that im on the right track for not spending during these 4 days here in NY, but guess what? me and ekka have spent a total of $870!!!! omfg!! all on groceries, one prepaid sim card, train tickets and small stuff. omfg! im freaking out! =/
off to buy more groceries for tonight! (we havent even been dining out much!) ~$~
