1st week of 2009

Back flew back to Spore on 31st Dec & count down to 2009 with some of my best friends.
So happy :)

My luggage this time is the heaviest ever. Had to hand more then 10KG onto the plane (in a backpack so dun look so unglam). I think it's the 4 big bottles of Shu Uemura cleansing oil that I happily offered to help people buy (fabulous deals!!), the bag of rice, vinegar, hair spray, shampoo, yummy assortment of Taiwanese sauces...

But I miss the Taiwan weather. It's cold enough to justify buying lovely winter wear but not so cold that we need to bundle up like bah chang. So can still look good & feel cold.

In view of the recession I had sworn NOT to shop. But being clothes starved in Taiwan, the land of tiny women, I could not resist. I fit the clothes here!! It's been a long time since I stepped into a shop & tried on clothes without feeling like a whale.

My sisters bought the grey & black ones AND naturally as their oldest sis, it's my right to borrow. Then I decided that I look too good in them (so slim...!!) to not get one for myself.

Dress from Far East.
Price: Paid-too-much-$$
Thanks to the evil csb & nono. They practically forced me to buy the dress! How can a girl resist being lavished with words like "slim" "pretty" & "chio" from your best friends?? True friends tell the truth!!

Longchamp Bag - small size, Chocolate
Price: $85
My mom had permanently "borrowed" my yellow one so I NEED a small, everyday carry, simple bag. Moreover I got Bobo to buy it from Paris so it's CHEAP!!

THATS IT. NO MORE SHOPPING!!!
