Shopping Princess

Went out with Mum and sis to John Little and Robinsons. Managed to get a yoga pants from Bodynits at John Little and tried the OTO Tataki lower back massager...quite effective I think cos it felt like someone actually massaging your back.

Went to the Starhub Centre foodcourt and met a ajcian schoolmate selling gelato...tried a couple of flavours and personally liked the matcha green tea and berries gelatos.

They wanted to head home thereafter so I went to Plant & Planet. Bought a few other products and also spent a long time chatting with the lady there. She's very friendly and nice to talk to. Managed to learn quite alot there. Especially on essential oils and also the types of tincture suitable for what uses. The organic teas are also interesting, will probably buy them the next time i go. She shared that she actually went to UK to study Yoga, Shiatsu (unsure of spelling), basic TCM, counselling. She's Singaporean Eurasian and I had a good time sharing and listening to her. She was a smoker previously and she told me that hypnotherapy was the most effective for her to quit and she mentioned that acupuncture can also help but it's really up to the smoker to give it up as it's normally a emotional and physical addiction.

Went to Bugis by taking bus 7 and took my time to look at the different clothes and shops. Found a couple of nice clothing (a top being offered at $12) and even a pair of sandals (Scotts: $9.90) but in the end did not succumb to temptations...haha. After a late dinner at the cafe (tried the grill chicken set: not too bad), went to a shop where I spotted a dress being offered at $26.90. It was the one and only piece available and it fits me nicely. Decided to buy it if the lady is willing to reduce the price. Bargained and got it for $25!!! So happy~ even though the price reduction was pretty minimal.

Alvin came by to meet me and we took the train to Choa Chu Kang before I got a cab back home cos super tired.
