This was my intention before entering the mall yesterday:
- Watch Harry Potter
- Buy A PAIR of short pant
After purchasing a ticket for the Harry Potter show, I walked around and noticed the big sign that every woman loves – SALE – at Esprit. I went inside.. and bought these:

(Pardon me for the picture quality, I was messed around with the camera setting and this was the result.
I know, I failed.)

…I don’t even know why I need those extra tops when I still have a few pairs of Guess tops that I bought last month, still intact with Tags! (I’ve never wore them yet!)
Wanna know the best part?
That black top in the picture IS NOT EVEN MINE! Imagine my horror when I found that in my shopping bag at home..
And before you come to the conclusion of “Oh my God, Cindy pulled a Winona Ryder!” – NO, I did NOT steal that top. Some customer put that black top at the counter while she go browse for a bag and the silly salesgirl placed it on MY stack of clothes and made me pay for it! That bloody top alone cost me RM79!
OK, silly me for not checking my list of items before paying them.. but STILL.. have some mercy on me, please. I paid for a top that wasn’t even my choice! UWAAAAAA~~~ That black top is SMALL-sized too and I’m wearing MEDIUM!!!! Lucky I just lost some weight last week because when I tried that on, I could fit in without having any problem of breathing.

Yes, that is my I-know-I-still-need-to-lose-some-weight body. Cute ar? LOL!!
Total spent: RM562.54
Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh… (I could’ve saved RM79 if I double-checked on the items)
Anyway..my new mantra for the day:
Must stop buying new clothes.
Must stop buying new clothes.
Must stop buying new clothes.
Must stop buying new clothes.


RM 562.54???
It’s my monthly installment for Honda City!!!!!!!!

Luckily you could fit into that shirt, kalau tidak sayang…
In my opinion, while you’re still single spend as much as you want as long as you can afford to coz when you’re married, no matter how much you earn, the guilt factor will be bigger and you’d find yourself buying for the kids and then realize you haven’t bought anything for yourself for months…LOL!
July 19th, 2007 at 11:46 am
That is my salary for one months!!!I suppost all ladies is like that!I meant the shopping part! Have a nice day!
July 19th, 2007 at 11:47 am
When I die I will come back as a black top.
*RUN*
July 19th, 2007 at 12:32 pm

July 19th, 2007 at 1:14 pm
That picture, is it photoshopped? He he
July 19th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
saifulrizan : Eee.. you making me feel guilty now!
Acom : Sometimes, over-shopping doesn’t give me a feel-good experience no more.
Jewelle : Yea, I noticed that with my married friend. When she was single, she used to shop like crazy with me. These days, everything she bought was for her kids!
Horny Angmoh : Once a while shop only ma.. ha ha ha.
Wombat: Hey, where do you think you’re going?!! *throws a net on Wombat*
Wahlau : I wouldn’t call myself a shoppaholic. More like a SALEholic. LOL!
Kay: Yea, Photoshopped a bit. The original ones were too dark. Eh, are you referring to MY picture? That one not Photoshopped.
July 19th, 2007 at 1:35 pm

July 19th, 2007 at 4:16 pm
I thought you were slimmer
July 19th, 2007 at 5:28 pm
I think I’m liking the one next to the black top. Is it a mini dress? It’s making a come back ( I’m so influenced by Bobby Thomas from The Fashion Police ). The last time I wore it when I was 15 years old. Planning to buy one soon also. Hihi!
July 19th, 2007 at 5:38 pm
Kay : I was slimmer then, yes, when I had bulimia. I gained some now trying to lose some again. LOL!
earthy emily : Yea, that’s a mini dress.
I love mini dresses!
July 19th, 2007 at 6:23 pm
LOL !
:D good one !
But, question: can’t you go back to the store and make them give your money back ?????
By the way, the top i like the most is the brown one ( or dark green ), the one on the left from the topper row
reaaaaaally funky!!!
July 19th, 2007 at 11:28 pm
Okay bah that. If you think that the tops are really what you want, and they fit you well, and you really, really really like them, then it’s worth it.
But then if you feel guilty at the end of the day.. then you probably bought something that you KNEW you weren’t supposed to.
The Black Top doesn’t count.
that was an honest mistake.
July 20th, 2007 at 3:06 am
Jewelle’s right. Once you have kids, it’s all about them. Unless you marry a billionaire, then you have the license to splurge, of course
July 20th, 2007 at 7:04 am
As I said in my reply to you in my blog, Cindy, you’re RICH!!!
July 20th, 2007 at 8:54 am
It’s ok ba tu spend that much. That’s why men will never understand women. Hahahhaha
July 20th, 2007 at 8:55 am
my new mantra is
Must buy new tops
Must buy new tops
Must buy new tops…
no money lehhhhh…..
July 20th, 2007 at 9:16 am

July 20th, 2007 at 1:48 pm

July 20th, 2007 at 2:35 pm
papajoneh,why cindy only get the treatment ?me leh?me me!ehehe
July 20th, 2007 at 2:51 pm
Me, Myself and I : I’m not too sure if I could return the top for a refund, because it was my mistake not checking the list of items before I paid for it. Besides, I’m too lazy to go back to the mall. I *MIGHT* end up shop for more…
Acom : Yea, it was an honest mistake. Somehow, I don’t feel guilty for shopping that much anymore. *heehee*
Nessa : ..or worse, shop for both myself and the kids. Pengsan lah laki I. LOL!
Nick : I’m not rich!! I just love to shop.
saiful : Women shop for clothes, men shop for car and car accessories. Pshh.. we can never understand men. *kekekek*
shana : Bah, lain kali kita go shopping together-gether ya?
carolchs : I’m not a shoppaholic
I’m not a shoppaholic
I’m not a shoppaholic.. LOL!
papajoneh : Wah.. what are you doing in Kudat?
July 20th, 2007 at 4:49 pm
At LEAST that girl didn’t put a really ugly looking black top on your pile..
I agree with Jewelle though.. spend while you can. Having kids really make you feel bad about spending unnecessarily..
Anyways, how was the movie? Haven’t watched Harry Potter yet..
July 20th, 2007 at 5:53 pm
Shemah : The movie was OK, I didn’t really like it tho. I think the previous Harry Potter was much better. I dunno. Maybe because there were not many “magical” scene and *someone* died.
July 21st, 2007 at 2:56 pm
You’re so slim and I wonder why you still want to lose weight? By the way, you did it again… shopping spree of the month! LOL
July 22nd, 2007 at 2:46 am
No NEVER EVER stop buying new clothes! It’s such a good thing!! And I LOVE the two tops on top! (but I’m confused. You kept the top that you accidentally brought home?)
July 22nd, 2007 at 5:24 pm
Ann : Eii cannot. Must lose weight more so I can look better in a bikini! Hahaha!
Erin : Uhm, it’s more like I “accidentally” paid for a top that wasn’t mine.
