And I will keep walking till the day I die.

Today I rushed out in the afternoon to get my sister's last min birthday gift for her 21st birthday party which took place like with only a few hours to spare from whence I bought her present, {a DKNY red apple (delicious? i think la)} at Sasa together with Maurice and his gf, Lemo, who gave me a Heineken beer (bottle) as a Christmas present. Awww how sweet. We went to top man at wisma first to get his sister's bf a tie for his christmas present. H was like asking me which tie to choose, and I took this yellow and black "danger kind of colour sign" tie and shoved it into his face, then walked away to admire the other shirts which I was having a hard time choosing to wear for my sister's party like with only hours to spare from then. Ya, kind of REALLY last min.
Me : HUH?! Your sister got new bf?! since when?? (His sister change bf like changing sanitary pads)
Maurice : About since....June? or July? I can't rmb.. (gave the sheepish look)
Me : Omg, how does he look like? Does he look just as DISgus.... uhhh, I mean, just as nice as her ex?
Maurice : No la, not fat one, he skinny skinny, tall tall kind.
Btw, Maurice's sister is a model for heaven's sake. She modelled for Loreal, turned up as cover for urban (you know, the small fashion pages slipped into Straits times every thursday), and she modelled for bride's gown, etc.
Me : Ok, quick show me his picture!
Maurice : I think she took a pic with him n her in my phone, lemme check. (And rummages thru his phone searching for it)
I took a glance and.....................................

Then

And finally,

I had a whole load of things to comment on, but in the end...
Me : *Ahem, it seems your sister doesn't take looks into consideration of finding a bf.
He has this look that is so *TooT* I can't even imagine him wearing a tie from TOP MAN. FYI, the clothes in TOP MAN are very stylish, with lots of unique desings suitable for youngsters like me, not for those who go for the retro type like *ahem* or those very conservative type. That guy...whoo... he looks like someone *who likes to study alot and has no life, a.k.a nerdy* and totally the opposite of outgoing, I nearly wanted to give his sister a male model as her christmas present instead.
Me : Hmm, ok...... Is he like...the outgoing kind? or the very conservative kind? (Well, looks can be deceiving you know, but only like 0.01% of the rational population.)
Maurice : He's the outgoing kind.
Wah, very hard to imagine sia. Just imagine people like Cheng Xiang wearing a clubbing attire (no offense my friend) CANNOT MAkE IT RIGHT??? ok i very bad. BUT ya!!! omg!
Anw, after like 20 mins of deciding, we still couldn't decide what tie to get that will suit him, (you see?? because hard to imagine ma!) and I've tried on a couple of shirt which actually looked nice on me, just that the price also damn nice, so I flung the shirts to the salesguy (the fold clothes ones, and secretly laughed at them cuz they have to fold them back, or hang them back on the clothes rack or whatever) and we walked out to Esprit to look for one shirt I saw weeks ago which I sorta liked, it's a brown one with a stich of an eagle on the back.
Front view : Actual colour

The Stripes : With flash
The Back : The Eagle
Is it super nice or is it uber cool!! Without the eagle thingy, the shirt would have been some plain old closing down sale's kind, but because of this design, I was EVER so lucky to find the last piece, (size M, just the perfect size!) lying on the clothes rack, waiting for some hunk to get him off haha .
OK KIDDING -.-!
About the hunk part.
But yeah, I bought it, and then REALISED I was too obsessed with my clothes to rmb my sister's present!!! So we ran out of Espirt with paper bags and stuff flying (and ya, after paying of course) to Sasa, this shop that reeked of perfume odour (aroma?). It's also at wisma, and it sells branded perfumes from all over the world, and after sniffing like abut 10 different types, my sense of smell started to fail, and every one after that smelt like some strong indian spice (those kind that they put in curry, esp those eaten with briani, mixed with ammonia, which made me wonder for the life of me why Beyonce and Britney liked those smells. The only one left which I could still differentiate as a not indian spice but normal branded perfume was the DKNY red apple which I bought obviously, for $109+, and got 2 stamps on this card thingy. Aiya those kind u fill up the card with stamp chops and maybe can get a free dildo thingy. Which I tossed to Maurice, cuz he will be the one who will most prob frequent this kind of place more than I will, esp for like for getting Christmas gifts and such.
Rich? Not really. Most Marists are of this kind of Calibur in the monetary world. I'm considered poor already cuz I couldnt afford a TOP MAN shirt, but bought an Espirit one instead for $49++? Quite ok la.
Btw, everyone should make a trip to Sasa, cuz one of the salesgirl is very "special". If you haven't seen a man-monster b4, ya, that's the place to go to see one.
After that, I hanged arnd in HMV before heading to my sister's party. The pics are all with my aunt, so not much story to tell, except it's a bit boring la. Anw, Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
