We bought soooo many things!!!

Met up with mumsie after work at TM...
We planned to go search for running shoes, and amazingly (thank GYM!), both of us managed to buy a pair each...
You know it's so hard for my mumsie to buy sth, especially a pair of shoes... She can like, decide and decide and decide, and still not make a decision. In other words, she's fussy.
So I was veri surprised by how fast she has decided to purchase the Puma Blue Running shoes as shown below:

$109

To be honest, it's not even a pair of running shoes. She likes it because it's not as big and squashy as her current New Balance pair, and it makes her whole look slimer coz the shoes are veri, well, slim n thin.
(I almost wanted to buy this, but the salesperson told me it's not for running purposes. In fact, all Puma shoes are not meant for running...)
In the end, after trying out like, 5 or 6 pairs of shoes (I'm soooooooo scared tat the sales guy will fa pi qi at me, which then reminds me of: "Xiao jie, ni zai wan wo ma???" encounter @ Mondo) for GYM-knows-how-long, I've finally decided to get this:

$89

NIKE. Yeah! Juz Do It!!!! :)
Tks to GSS, both pairs cost only $180+ (fully sponsored by dear old Mumsie!), so I guess it's quite worth a buy, isnt it??? *hehehz*
The devil in me cackles evilly: "Of course worth the buy lah, not you pay for it wad...!"
The angel in me whispers gently: "Aiyah, it's been a long time since ur mumsie buys things for you... dun nid to be pai seh lah horz!"
*heez* I'm being lame, I know.
Gonna start jogging soon le, since my power of motivation is now sitting beautifully at one corner in my room... But tat'll hafta wait til next week lah horz... *sheepish grinz*
My stomach was growling like mad, and to appreciate my mumsie for her generous act, I wanted to treat her to Ding Tai Feng... But she wasnt in the mood to eat dim sum, so in the end we ended up at Mos Burger... *hahahz*
So being fully replenished, we now got the energy to shop further more...
Went to NTUC to buy my baking needs...
I'm going to bake my na shou hao cai (wanwan's speciality) which I havent been doing it for a nong nong time: chocolate chip cookies, for ALL my colleagues. (Yes, even the irritating ones.) *muahahaz*
But then I realised tat some of them are halal & vegetarian strictly, so I bought a BIG box of Merci for them... *heeheez*
After NTUC, we went to Best Denki to buy my DVD player...
Wahahah, I realli tan dio can! First, NIKE shoes. Now, DVD player...
My mumsie is so on tat it scares me.
Seriously, I have zilch knowledge abt electrical/electronic (wad's the diff btw dem??) products, so I decided to trust the salesman who introduces the Philips player to me...

$99
And it has got karaoke function lehz! I can K-box in my veri room worz! But then horz, I realise I've got no mics. And no songs to sing to. *sighz*
So with bags n bags of our victorious winnings, Mumsie made another shocking decision.
"We take cab home want?"
"I~WANT~I~WANT~I~WANT!!!"
Wow. The usual thrifty housewife suddenly becomes a tai-tai... Amazing...
But not as amazing as wad happened when we waited for cab at the stand.
A MERCES cab came along when it's our turn.
I dunno whether to laugh or cry.
*wahahaz*
Guess I laughed.
Our luck. =)

Saw my NIE package when I reached home.
Was veri excited to see it coz it's been a while since I've heard from them.
But I became angry n upset when I read thru those letters.
One of them stated tat I nid to send in the relevant documents by 25th June, Monday.
Today's already 23rd.
HOW IN THE WORLD DO I HAVE THE LUXURIOUS TIME TO PREPARE THOSE DOCUMENTS AND EVEN POST THEM OUT BY 25TH?????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Can you imagine the panicky n shock I had and still have when I saw tat???
Then I looked at the date the letter was drawn.
19th June.
Which means the package arrived late.
So whose fault was that???
Obviously it's the SingPost ppl, duh!
I'm so fricking angry coz apparently it's not the first time we received late mails.
Do you know how much inconvenience and trouble late arrivals cause us??
And such admission adminstration matters are no joking matters okie?!?!
*HAIZ*
Complain is the word for SingPost. They shall get it from the NEO family. I swear.
So no choice... Monday i'll have to pia down to NIE to submit those documents personally...
AND MONDAY IS MY LAST DAY AT WORK!!!! Time spend with my colleagues is already running out and yet SingPost still want to take some away! Not fair!
*grrrrr*
In the end, I called my shifu to tell her I need to get urgent leave in the morning... Luckily my CE is cool wif it...
*tsk tsk tsk*
But two good things happened: Dad is going to drive me there... =) And my bank is opening tmr, even it's a Sunday!! So I can get those finance matters done in a flash. Hopefully lahz.
And I need to take a recent picture. Damn it. Now I wish I hadnt cut my hair.
So troublesome.
Mumsie told me to use the old ones when my hair's still long.
But they kept stressing on "recent" photographs, so I guess not.
*shakez head*
I hate last minute work. I hate shoddiness. I HATE LATE MAILS!!!
*ROARZ!*
