♥ more shopping!
today i went to watch 500 days of summer. unforunately my boyfriend fell asleep through it. it was okay, not really what i was expecting... and uber corney ending. ahaha. and now i feel bad for dragging the bf along to it, sorry bub!
well i went shopping after. i was only meant to get my boots, but there was a get a second pair of shoes for 50% deal.... and i couldn't find anything so i wasn't going to bother getting a second pair, until i asked the lady if those shoes 'over there' were included. and surprisingly she said yes, i thought the whole brand of them were excluded from the sale, but it seemed it was only a certain collection of them.
ended up getting theseee...
and yes, they're not what i usually get, so it should require some getting use to.
i already have a pair from this brand... these oness...
but that flower thing digs into my foot and it hurts =[
anyways. the boots i got, i've had my eye on for a while, and was totally heartbroken when i found they had sold out at the mirrabooka store. then found a pair in harbor town, but with no size.. then found a pair at the city store in a size 9 and got uber excited =]
they're actually really high boots though, not high in the heel but high as in.. high up to the knee. i dont think i really noticed when i tried it on at the shop because of my jeanss sorta pushed it down.. but when i tried it again at home i'm like hmmmmm......
anyways, bought a new pair of stockings from myer since i ripped a hole in my other ones.
ohoh and i was walking through carillion when i saw a new shop!
it's called factorie.. and it's actually pretty cheap. i ended up getting some simple long sleeve shirts (which i've been looking for, for a while now)
but i was slightly disappointed when i asked the lady what stores it was affiliated with and she said cotton on. and yes, my experience with cotton on quality is meh.
but it didn't seem too bad, like the quality of the shirts i got. i think it's a more urban (or maybe even surfy/skatey) style shop and i'm hoping they don't make their clothes from the same materials/factory (but the shirt says made in Bangladesh? soo.. i dont think they do actually) i'll let u know how the quality is.
otherwise it's a pretty cool shop, nice layout... but yes, not a fan of some of their designs as of yet. hmm.
anyways that is all for now. must study. hbio test wed, stat test thurs. argh!

♥ boxing day sales
so i rocked up at the city at 11... just in time to see myer open their doors, and a massive crowd of people attemp to fit through the doors all at once.
i slipped in between some people, and managed to get through, only to be stopped by a bunch of women looking at dresses...
after moving past them... i went down stairs - only just to see MORE people... and such bad human traffic.
i made my way to the sunnies section. i knew what i wanted (phew). there was so many people moving around trying sunnies on here and there (oh the poor staff)...
i grabbed what i wanted.. and walked around (moving through crowded people) looking at what else there was. after deciding i didnt want anything else (or i couldnt be bothered trying it on because it would take too long) i headed to the counter (which wasn't too busy considering it was still early - and everyone was still looking at stuff) and purchased my sunnies.
first buy for the day! my fiorelli sunnies. the same style i use to have (and lost in darwin)
got it for just under $35... from $70 (woOt 50% off)
anyways. by the end of the day i picked up my sunnies.. a massively fat book (and by fat i mean 600 pages) and also a gift for someone.
all up, i prob saved around $50 from my buyss... haha.
considering i only spent about 100 bucks (incl lunch).. and i was planning on spending 150, means im underbudget.. and i have more money to spend 2moro in my lunch break at work =D.
yes so i leave for tour soon. 2 more days. ive kinda started packing.
its going to be crazy - i know it... haha. but im sure full of fun.
it'll be good to have a break. without working. or stressing over anything. without having to clean my room. HAHA.
=) happy boxing day
