Today after fetching Ching Siang to school for his last paper today, I went to change $3,700 worth of Thai Bhat with my friend, who have tremendous exchange rates cuz of staff rate. The money is for Jun Jie's Krabi trip and i got for him at a rate of 23.45. Good right? Haha...After that, I went to Jia Jia's house at Boon Keng to give her a lift to Orchard, where we will be doing our formal wear shopping for our upcoming PA starting on 11th May. Actually can reach Jia Jia's house at 1pm, but at the PIE exit near that stupid Siemens building, I made a wrong turn and I was 'hor lan' around Aljunied area for more than 30 minutes...super sian. The only good thing that came out of it is that I found a stretch of road that have 2 ESSO petrol stations, cuz the warning sign for low petrol had started to appear...heng sia...haha.
After reaching Orchard, we then went to meet with Dian Min, Zhiyu and Michelle, who was already there at 1 plus shopping at Wisma. Dian Min had already bought something for herself. So efficient sia. After shopping for a little while more, we then went to Food Republic to have our lunch. I must say, the food there is quite tasty for a food court, though the price is a little pricey.
After lunch, our shopping gear kicked into turbo action. Fiona joined us a little while later, around 4pm, late for 3 whole hours!! After some window shopping, we went to G2000 Black Label at Takashimaya to shop for our formal clothes. There, the 5 girls helped me choose a nice formal shirt and pants. After some trying and stuff, I finally settled on a blue shit and black pants. Cost me $169 altogether...plus Jia Jia's and Michelle's formal pants, we managed to hit $200, which entitled us to a G2000 prestige card...next time shop at G2000 will have 15% discount...so if u all wanna buy at G2000 in future, feel free to approach me...
Then at Armani Exchange, the 5 of them bought me a formal belt from there as a belated birthday present! So touched!! Its one of my nicest belt that I have! Now, I have a belt that I can wear to PA everyday.
Below is the belt that they have bought for me today... nice right?
So today I had really a great harvest, like I bought the whole set of formal wear, with the exception of shoes, which I already have at home. At seven plus, Dian Min and Zhiyu then proceeded home and the rest of us then went to Paragon to chill out at Starbucks. What a nice day today!! After that, at around 8 plus, I gave a lift to Jia Jia and Michelle back to Boon Keng and I sped home in order to catch the final episode of the Ping Pong show on Channel 8.
