Can't Feel my Legs

rxelyn... exhausted. I'm not much of a shopper... this trip just killed my legs. I am seriously tired. D:
So we were supposed to meet at 10. That is me, Sneha and Sofia. (Sherilyn was down with fever. And I just noticed that their names all start with S. *random moment*) Anyway, we all were late. I mean, me and Sneha. Cos we were both sleepyheads. Lol. Since I slept at around 2 plus last night.
Yeah, browsed the streets at 10 plus. Where the stores have yet to open fully. But still people were milling about, lots of maids hanging around speaking in broken english and their own languages, random foreigners sprouting their own languages. I think I heard a woman speaking German. :D so jealous! (I apparently mangle all languages with the exception of english, mandarin and occasionally, japanese.)
We walked in and out of shops, shifting through the racks, putting things in their wrong places, etc. But it was a lot of fun, hanging out with them.
Sneha is one scary shopper. She spent nearly half an hour just choosing hair bands. =_= and in the end, she grabbed an entire bunch. So what's the point of choosing? Apparently, her hair also requires two different combs... which is an alien concept to me because most days I just roll out of my bed and comb my hair with my fingers. Bedhead is more of a friend than a foe for me. XD
Moving on, Carolyn joined us later on as we were having lunch at Subway. Subway Melt is nice too. And the cookies, absolute delish. :D
So while we added a new companion, another left us; Sofia had a family gathering to attend to. She didn't buy anything, but hung out with us to bond. Say 'awww', people.
Carolyn is funny and surprisingly, I didn't run out of things to say as I'm prone to with other people. I mean, c'mon, I run out of things to say even with Ami and I known her for like what, 4 years and more?!
Anyway, in the end, I bought meself one pair of pants (on offer at G2000 because I'm equally auntie as Min Jie *kekekeke*), a cheetah ring (overpriced shit at Chameleion), a magnetic snake bracelet (goddamn expensive but oh so versatile. There's so many ways I can wear it.) and hairspray (because I mistakely bought hair gel the other day. I hate it when you can't read the labels because they're a different language that you can read.) In total, with lunch, I spent $65. OMG... total wastage of money because I can easily go without my bling. D:
Had a free dinner over at my aunt's place. Because I was so broke already... but did not take into account that my cousin is having diabetes... (due to some complication in pregnancy) and... the food was just all the stuff that I didn't like. Like brown rice, fried beancurd, pork ribs and garlic. >.> But beggers aren't choosers. Picked at my food politely and thankfully I had my cookies from Subway as a backup. Total lifesaver, those cookies. :D
Strangely, we also heard 'Please Don't Stop the Music' 6 or 7 times today as we were shop-hopping. *sweatdrop*
EDIT: I have no idea why Sneha was so aghast that the shopkeeper that I bought the snake bracelet from had his hands around my neck... I mean, he was helping me with wearing the necklace... so... erm... I don't see anything offensive. Or am I just... slow? *blinks* And strangely as well... Jia Li was angry on my behalf or something. Same thing with Sharon and Sherilyn was like, I'll have freaked out... Oh well.
