Great Monday Start of the Week!

Why I say its great? 

Cos the first thing i woke up, checked my email and read that I've won a free pair of movie tickets.. hee..

All thanks to the contest held by Nuffnang we get our chance to watch the preview of Confessions of a Shopaholic tomorrow evening at Plaza Singapura! 

It's been like damn long since I've last stepped into the cinema theatres to catch a movie.. with hubby too.. so this morning after finding out the good news.. i called hubby and told him we get to watch free movie tmr lo.. he sounded happy.

So looking forward to tomorrow evening.. =)

I know my friend is a Shopaholic because …

that's just what she is?! Absolutely no other reasons.

shop·a·hol·ic (shŏp'ə-hô'lĭk, -hŏl'ĭk)

n. A person who shops compulsively or very frequently.

a compulsive shopper; "shopaholics can never resist a bargain"

and you know what? There are always bargains everywhere, everytime!!!
SALE! SALE! SALE!

be it Clothes, Electronics, Toiletries, Food or even PROPERTY!!! There's a sale in everywhere!

And being a Shopaholic like Friend A (left anonymously unknown cos' she reads blogs too.. u noe just in case)

She is just one who simply couldnt resist the thought of spending $$$ even in this time of recession..and not to mention her "sense of accomplishment" when she gets her hands on her so called 战利品.

She's a lady with no income.. YET you can name her from LVs -> GUCCIs -> BURBERRYs -> PRADAs -> MIU MIUs or what have you?!

Once she gets her eyes laid on something, you'll start hearing some whinings & see this poor lad's burnt pockets!

Friend A's even hook on travelling! You let her knows your 门路 to cheap airfares? You'll see her next packing her bags with her bare hands..

The most ultimate part is when Friend A walked into a Rolex watch boutique with her other pal and decided to buy a particular model, the CC (credit card in case u dunno) declines and her poor pal has to offer to pay half for her.. and she walked out of the shop (after purchasing the watch with the help of her pal), stormed off to find her other pal & rants abt wanting to jump off a building just becos' the CC declined in a Rolex boutique.. and apparently it's shameful for a Shopaholic..

The most recent THING? she bought was a small condo unit as it's like IN TREND if u noe what i mean! and she bought it the first time she step into the showroom apartment mind you! I'd hv reconsider n gone thru some sleepless nites just to think if i shd get an apartment~

So what's next for her? I wouldnt know, simply because a Shopaholic doesnt stop! Else she wouldn't be called tt afterall!

Am I proud to have a fren like Friend A?!?! I wouldnt know.. but i do know how you can get to know what I mean..

Catch Confessions of a Shopaholic on 26 March!

Perth, Western Australia and the Wonders it brings.. Come Experience what I strive to experience!

A Place of Peace. A Zone of Lights. A Sanctuary of Life.

and the many reasons why this state and its country is ranked 4th on The Economist's 2008 as the World's Most Livable Cities, according to Wikipedia.

With its beautiful climate and the friendly culture, topped with some really facinating spots like Fremantle, Swan Valley and Rottnest Island (just to name a few), there are just simply too many activities to do in this state.

Besides the usual Zoo visits at Perth Zoo, exploring the thousands of sea creatures in the oceanarium at The Aquarium of Western Australia and enjoying the 30 different rides at the fun-filled Adventure Park, the dare-devil in you can also opt to go for the exciting Parasailing at Mill Point.

There are also lots of other outdoor activities, like Surfing at the various beaches along the coast or Cycling around rivers on the cycleways (Perth has a large number of cycleways btw) and tour the city in a safe and fun way.

One would definitely enjoy their stay in Perth with all the reccommended sights, and also the Shopping I've not mentioned! That will surely make your Perth trip worthwhile.

What's really worth mentioning is what I'd missed the most and would absolutely, beyond any doubt, experience over and over again.

The tranquility I find in Perth - Western Australia. The white beaches, the lovely waters, the secluded forests and the natural being of nature.

This is what I love and this is what us humans seek in life - Serenity.

This is the type of experience I pursue, a perfect contrast to the fast-paced world we lived in.

It's the first day of March 2009.. A Brand New Month..

The Pioneer Station is in Service! Finally!!!

and i took my first ride (if you don't count the Open House Ride to Joo Koon Station) to Jurong East from Pioneer Station cos we wanted to go IMM.

Hubby is so happy cos he can finally take train straight from Pioneer Station right to Bugis!! He doesnt need to take the feeder bus from our place to Boon Lay Station anymore.. and perhaps he gets to sit all the way to Bugis.. and not squeeze with the morning crowd at Boon Lay Station.. you noe how crazy it is in the past???!?!?!

Anyway I am happy abt it as well, cos Hubby can reach home earlier then from now.. He doesnt have to spend extra time on bus waiting.. haha!

When my bb arrives.. i probably can bring bb out on mrt rides more often.. thats only if bb is older..

Talking about bb.. do dropby my bb's blog www.dear-baby-chen.blogspot.com if u are interested in any updates of me hubby n bb ok?

Its getting late now.. I'm a Preggy..I cant stay up late anymore..buay tahan.. I need my sleep!!
