In the Mood for shopping and Karaoke :>

I can proudly say that i have finally finished all my Christmas shopping. I went Orchard on Friday noon with my mum and brother as i wanted to collect the Apple Itouch that my hubby bought for my birthday. But it was out of stock and i had to wait for about 2-3 weeks :< It was so crowded and there was long queues everywhere we went!


I bought some Precious Moment gifts at Takashimaya and had to queue also. My brother was grumbling throughout but the advantage of going out with him is he would always help me carry my shopping bags and he also likes to shop (as long as there are no long queues) ;> My hubby on the other hand, can't stand shopping with me hehe he rather go to the bookstore to browse at his favourite books. There was alot of sales going on and i couldn't help buying lots of stuffs hehe.. Esprit was selling their towel sets for $13.90 each instead of $19.90 and i bought a blue towel set for my hubby. Got the impulse to buy more but my mum already bought me a pink Esprit towel set 2 weeks ago and my wardrobe is bursting due to lack of space.


I also bought a Panasonic Ion Styling Iron from Best Denki for $59.90 and got a free set of Lucido-L hair-styling products. I had wanted to buy it since i saw the advertisement in a magazine as i don't wish to go rebonding again for fear of damaging my hair and i would have to avoid going swimming if i rebond my hair. I was also attracted to the panasonic product as it claims to discharge negative ions which would replenises hair with moisture and forms a protective coating to lock in the moisture so that i would not be afraid of damaging my hair with repeated use.


We then went to Kinokuniya to buy magazines (20% discount for members) and there was a long queue. Everyone was also taking advantage of the discount to buy books and magazines. We wanted to have a drink at Coffee Club after all the shopping and to rest our poor feets but we had to wait for a long time as there was a queue again. Luckily we managed to find seats at Breeks but the service staff forgotten about our order and we had to wait foir more than half an hour just for drinks. I had to also repeatedly remind the staff about our orders. Don't think i would go there again.


I have also been going to Kbox frequently for karaoke this week. I went once with my hubby on Wednesday and yesterday with my cousin. We always go for the K-lunch package as the price is really cheap and we can sing from 11am-1pm (sometimes we get to sing till 2pm). Bento lunch and a drink is included and we only have to pay about $12.50 per person.

By the way. for those who have been watching Korean drama "Jumong" and would like to buy the DVD set, Blue Max is selling the DVD set for only $39.90/-. It is the best price i have found so far. I saw Poh Kim selling the VCD set for $79.90 yesterday. I bought mine from Blue Max Toa Payoh Central branch yesterday when the sales person called and told me there was stock. I also bought the korean drama "Air City" vcd set for only $20/-. I would always have dramas to buy whenever i go to Blue Max video store as i find that their vcds/dvds for Korean and Taiwan dramas are the cheapest.


I bought this Baking book from Popular for only $12.90 and there are 200 recipes of cookies, bread, cakes and muffins with detailed comprehensive instructions and pictures for baking novices like me :> Those wishing to do some bakings for Christmas or looking for gifts for love ones who likes baking must definitely get this book!

My mum's Christmas Tree, it was so cute with soft toys that i could not resist taking a picture to share with everyone :>
