J card day!

Hi!!!
I know it's been ages since I last updated my blog. My last post was about packing for Korea, and to sum it up, Korea was AWESOME. I'd definitely go back there. With more korean words in my head hopefully :P It's one of the best Asian country I've been so far. If I were to migrate there someday, I would definitely choose to settle down in Hongdae cuz there's so many well groomed and talented uni guys there, haha! Hongik University is a performing arts University after all! Everyone who performed at that little square near the university looks like kpop stars, literally, be it girls or guys. They dressed the part, act the part and performed the part. I'd like to go back there, pretty pleaseeee? Hahaha anyway, my second choice of this 'imaginary' migration would be Busan! Cuz it's a place where ppl tell me I'm BEAUTIFUL and PRETTY. LOL! And apparently my brother's friend who was travelling with me begs to differ -.- OISH! Now I understand why Korean guys are BETTERRR than Malaysians! Internally and externally!! (Hahah I'm jk, I knew he was just teasing me)

Anyway, to sum it up (again =.=), the food was awesome, the weather was nice, the people are marvelous and the culture is so.. ..pretty(??!). What is there not to like about Korea?! Oh I know, the currency. To us Malaysians, Korea won = USD.

Ok I'm done with Korea.

So todayyyy was Jcard member day (yesterday too). It was insane I tell thee! A whole day there and I felt like I've just worked a days worth of construction work, like a kuli. Hahaha but looking at my loooooots, it was worth it! There's so many mad aunties grabbing stuff like it's FREE. All the pushing and shoving going on. I bet they felt like a kuli at the end of the day too. Or maybe not. They have more e.x.p.

Got myself 2pairs of shoes, jeans etc. But the highlight is still the 'happy hour' sales where certain stuffs like branded watches and handbags go off the shelve for as much as 70% off. When the sales for handbag starts, no! BEFORE the happy hour sales for handbag starts, they are already pushing and shoving at the sideline. Not that the stuff are dirt cheap. From afar, I saw the price range, and it still costs bout 80-120 for a handbag. Klang people are pretty rich nowadays huh? But I was pulled off by my mom b4 I can join in the madness.

'But mommmm, I wanna check it out!!'
'Aiya! There's nothing to check out, they marked up alot and gave you the discounts so that u will buy it at the same price thinking you've got a good discount. Plus those so-called leather bags are obviously PV leather laaa.'

Saying all that, we exited the CHAOS area and walked along the shoplots where there weren't many people. We entered a Bonia shop and checked out the bags. It's not a place I'd usually go you know, branded stuff cost a fortune -> that's my logic. Though Bonia is considered the lower end brand compared to Gucci and whatnot, it's still expensive! >.< Andddd.. needless to say, I couldn't even afford to buy a bag strap there -.- My mom got herself a handbag with a matching purse, it was well over 1k. Can I even EARN that much when I work in the future?? Well I can, but then I wouldn't be able to pay off my car installment, food expenses, bills and whatnot. Oh well, one can always live on roti canai and air kosong for a month. Not me, but one can.

Oh! Here comes the climax of my day! I was looking around (strutting off those handbags like I was gonna buy them :P no harm in trying right? Heee) and I found this PURSE(!!) that made me melt like.. like some helpless butter on a sunny day. Like seriously, my eyes gleamed like I just saw a pot of heavenly chocolate ice-cream dessert! The pattern was soooooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL, the handiwork was meticulous! and the feel of it.. ..lets just say it's a winning feeling :)

Most of the purse I've seen there cost about 200+ to 300+. So hoping against hope, I peeked at the price and.. .. ..haha I couldn't afford it. Right there, big and bright was printed, Rm409! O.O Even 100bucks for a purse is splurging for me! I'm a pauper. Sigh. Look at the bright side though, to fall in love with one of the most exp purse around, I guess I have really good taste huh? Hahahahaha!

A beauty like that, I showed it to my mom. She looked through the purse (and the price of course) and said,
'Do u want it? Go ahead and buy it la. Did you bring your credit card?'
'.. .. .. .. .. ..'

WHAAAAAAAT!!!!!!

I almost did a little dance right on the spot. Oops maybe I did. Hahahaha! Earlier today, my mom bought a polo wallet for my big bro (I thought the playboy one was rather nice but she dun like it >.< playboy, lol). She bought it for him because his is falling apart and has deteriorated beyond recognition. ROTTED! I call it. Hahaha mine looks ok though and is fully functional, so I really didn't expect her to buy one for me!

AHHHHHH I still can't believe it. It's like a dream come true! Don't think I'd even use it, so precious! I can't stop staring at my new baby every once in a while right now. It's so surreal. I'm in love. Otoke?
