Retail Therapy

Hello there (; I'm in an extremely good mood today because I did a bit of retail therapy with Shannon and Monika and well, I'm just very happy with my buys. I don't regret getting anything that I got and I'm just so happy and because I'd really like to show you what I got so I'm taking the time to take photos and upload them which is something I scarcely feel like doing. 

In total I spent about $95 today :L I was going to say $75 but then I realised Shannon gave me $20 for my birthday :3 Okay I'll explain what we bought and stuff with the photos (:

Chocolate Dip @ Max Brenner
(My Order)
Chocolate Dip + Yellow Granita
(Our Order)
Yellow Granita @ Max Brenner
(My sister's order)
For my dear split ends :p

Heard lots of good reviews for this and the
lady at the counter even recommended it

Needed a heat protectant (Monika also got this)

I needed a top coat (just normal, but next time I'm buying
the matte drying one + hand sanitizer (mentioned below)

Remington Gelati hair straightener in mint
(a bit greener in real life but that might be my
lighting tricking me. There was also coral which i
considered getting and a fuchsia purple)
LOL we spent ages in Priceline and in the end we all bought so much (well it felt like a lot) and in total we all spent $113.65 and since I got a priceline card a few weeks ago when I was bored, I got 113 points and 100 points in a quarter of a year = $3 off LOL. But it still hasnt like updated that yet online. If I somehow manage to get 200 points it's $8 off my next purchase. This reward system is sad ik, but I guess it's coz there's like perfume and stuff worth more than $50 so im assuming that's why..LOL. 

Monika gave this to me for my birthday! :3
This was the dress I really wanted and now
I have it! :D

Unfortunately I couldn't take a photo of my new jeggings coz my lighting is all orange (idk but I dont like white light that much..LOL but artificial lighting in general is bleugh to me) but they're navy and they're the nicest and softest and most comfortable fabric ever.

The first in the pile of my new EXO-K posters! :D
(flash is on so colour is more accurate)

All the posters (preview on the back) but I gave
the Kai poster (bottom right hand corner) to
Monika. 
We went to the kpop shop in Parramatta and spent AGES there deciding what to get. I wanted to buy some SNSD posters too but I didn't want the packs they had and I had no clue what the big posters (A2) cost and I didn't want to go and ask the man again. First time I asked was to see what the $12 pack of EXO-K posters had inside since there was no preview on the back but he said 'no I can't open it' ;_; oh well, they were like the pre-debut/debut photos. I got this pack which was $18.90 but it was on sale so I got it for $17 LOL. I'm really excited to replace the current posters on my wall now but I want to add some SNSD posters or something so it isnt awks when my clarinet teacher comes for lessons LOL. My mum reacted in the way I was expecting 'why do you like this korean band?' and 'why get it?' but i dont care, she's probs just like 'oh well it's her money' LOL.

Afterwards, when we all split up and went our own ways, my sis and I decided to go JB Hi Fi coz she wanted to buy the full set of the Deltora Quest anime (because we loved the books and I've seen a lot of the eps but not all). She ended up buying more than just that tho LOL because we walked to the games section (I was attracted to the Sims 3 section because Monte Vista just came out and that's the only expansion pack I really want, I mean showtime and generations would be nice too (: ) and then we looked at the other pc games. Guess what, we found Amnesia! But we didn't get it coz I have the demo and dude that is stressful to play. Well stressful in that I'm paranoid the monster's gonna come LOL and plus later this year Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs is coming out so yah. I saw the trailer and dude that looks creepy. Anyways, she ended up buying Assassin's Creed (set of I and II) and since it wasa 2 for $20 deal, she also bought this really cool looking Alice in Wonderland game but it's the second. It's like a creepier version but she doesn't want me watching or playing the whole thing because apparently it's innapropriate coz it's about paedophilia or some shit so yah. I saw her watching someone play it (no voice-over or people talking, just walkthrough and they were really good) and it looked pretty cool. I'm excited to play them now :D Or watch my sis play but they're gonna be downloaded on her laptop coz mine is really full coz of Sims since that takes up a lot of space plus I have tv shows (which will be there until I get the DVD version LOL).

Oh and then we browsed some expensive stores in search for nice clothes as a bday present for my mum (1st Feb so don't have much time) and we found a nice dress but it was only avail in size s and xs and m is her size for it since it was a bit tight for my sis and she's similar size to my mum so when my sister goes city tomorrow (some writer is coming but i dont remember LOL) she's gonna see if they have it but it's really pretty and it's one of the dresses that we reckon will defs suit my mum. She also bought herself this dress from Jacqui E (I convinced her LOL) but it  is TOTAL GORG ON HER. No kidding. She came out of the change rooms and I was like OH MY GOD. DUDE. I swear it suits her so much and if she were to walk the red carpet or something then that'd be her dress. When she's not wearing it, it doesnt look nice but when she wears it, it's just woah. No comment LOL. It was like $90 but so worth it I reckon and she also bought another dress for like $250 apparently but it's really pretty and it's from Cue which is (I found out so im sorry if you already knew this) an Australian brand/company and the material they used for that dress is imported from Europe and very expensive and the dress itself was made in America.

Oh and I bought hand sanitizer (as you can see above) :D Okay sorry that's random but I love hand sanitizer, I used to carry it everywhere when I was in yr 4...but then it ran out. :( So I got this one and it's pink :3 I was gonna get the aloe vera one but it was green and pink looked cool LOL. Plus my new hair straightener is green/mint.

xoxo Bernice
