MANGO SALE!!!!
Thursday, June 23, 2005
Today's the day of the long awaited mango sale!!! yippee!!! my dearest colleague grace valiantly offered to man the phonecalls for me in the morning so that i could go shopping! woke up at the usual time of 7.05 pm but i took a miraculously fast time to get ready to get out..we reached just in time for the shutters to open but there was already a queue outside isetan..the craziness man. for those who frequent TM, the queue was from the second floor entrace of isetan to the area outside starhub. It was hilarious man..all the girls behind us on the escalator were walking exceptionally fast just to beat us to the queue..wth?! as soon as i was in, i started for the mango & you tanks first..then my sis discovered the mini skirts section where the skirts were being grabbed by girls like nobody's business..haa...

The first place my mother hit was the bag section..haa..then our basket was filled with bags..the mango sale is really mad man..but this year's sale isn't that good..i feel that they don't cut the price as much as the past years..bleah..it means less bargains lae...

in the end.. i bought two tanks (both green!! lime green and khaki), a pair of uber kewl jeans (see! jeans again lae..), 2 skirts (light green and light brown), a bag and my fave item of all --> a beeyewtiful shrug in charming black! so nice i tell you..but my mother thought it wasn't value for money..but i'm so so so glad i bought it..i paid with my own money lae!

don't have to feel guilty anymore..in the past whenever i bought lots of stuff and i had to rely on my mother to pay for me..i'd feel so so guilty..that she'd have to work so hard just to buy clothings for her daughter. now i can proudly say that whatever clothing item is all mine..bought with money that i earned with my own hands..

i'm so excited..i wanna go tonight again! maybe to suntec to see what other spoils i can find! i lurve the twice a year mango sale!! it's my shopping highlight of the year! whee!!!

okay..think i'm going overboard with the exclaimation marks..but i'm so happy! husbands should always bring their wives on shopping sprees to make them happy..in this way it'll turn out to be a win-win situation..the wives would be happy that their husbands love them enough to spend money on them while the husbands would be happy that their wives dress up and look fantabulous!

oh man..the stupid woman in my office just annouced that i went to the mango sale in the morning..it was supposed to be a hush-hush thing. with her loud irritating high-pitched voice, everyone now knows that i skip work to go shopping! stupid big-mouthed busybody! Her nose hasn't dropped to my dismay ):

during these four days when the boss was away i was supposed to write a tribute to my office ppl..but i decided against it..knowing that a particular someone would be unhappy with it..but it'd be such a nice funny read! should i?

i love that my office is so informal..everythig doesn't have to be done by the book..and i have a gd example to prove it..my office is not so slack until nobody's business..when someone takes leave, the person will still have to fill up a leave form for his or her supervisor to sign and to be keyed into the computer system.

on our company's leave form, there is a blank to be filled stating the reason for the taking of leave.

This subcontractor actually put down shopping & walk walk as his reason! and the boss signed and approved it! hilarious! this is why i lurve my office..no rules to abide with..everybody openly slacks..hysterical laughing is allowed! but the downside is that there are really mean bitchy people..bleah..but the good people more than balance the bad stinky ones..

Have no idea how most people stay at their workplace for so long though..i get bored of the job after a certain period of time..

Yawnz...i'm tired..am not focussing on what to write..so many thoughts streaming through my mind..still going shopping tonight at mango though! whee!!
