Shopping Galore

Shop. Shop. Shop. Shop!

That's what I have been doing literally non-stop from morning til almost midnight for the past four days while in Singapore. I couldn't have chosen a better time to take a trip down south really. I had no intention of buying anything with my rather limited funds and had every intention of just walking about taking in the sights.

Ha! Tell that to any woman who happened to go down to Singapore while the mega Singapore sales takes place and see if she actually sticks to only sightseeing! How lucky for me that literally every shop I laid my eyes on had all kinds of discounts! You'd be crazy to think I was going to let this opportunity pass me by.

I mall hopped like crazy, covering at least six different malls within three days. You'd think with all the mall hopping I would have truckloads of stuff that I bought. Wrong. At the end of the trip, I had only bought two things for myself, both of which happen to be technically the same sort of thing; handbags. It's my weakness at the moment, I can't seem to resist buying bags and more bags! I had gleefully purchased a Nine West black handbag and a Charles & Keith gold handbag (refer to picture above) at bang-for-your-buck prices which I could probably never ever get back home. Imagine that, Nine West!!! I was on cloud nine when I made that happy purchase :D

I did buy other things though while on my super long shopping trip. However, they were mostly toys for Ian, something which I've discovered I can't help but want to buy more and more things for the people back home whenever I'm off on a trip. I actually find so much happiness in getting all sorts of things for the people I love and when it comes to buying something for myself, I'll stinge and stinge until I can absolutely not hold out any longer.

I'm back home now, but it really has been a blast. The travelling alone, the endless shopping sprees and the eventual hope of seeing the weighing scale needle go left tomorrow morning after all that non stop walking.
