supersaturdaysupermarket

dance in the morning...so many dance practices now...i like, but...no time to catch up on my school work also. it's going to be an eventful week ahead, come what may, or come what may not. im thankful for this slightly longer weekend, though it hasnt been productive so far, because i've been investing in the intangibles. [nonacademic stuffs]

after dance, i met my parents and sista for lunch?brunch?. the sister was going for ballet, parents were going supermarketing. or rather, coldstoraging. grabbed icedcoffeemocha and cheeseburger. i ordered icedcoffeemocha 'jelly'. but i guess the lady didnt catch my last impt word. but nvm. i love mix-and-matching my food from everywhere. my daddy often says how macdonalds can keep selling the same unhealthy things for decades and still earn money, while you have eateries that keep introducing desperate offers and sales and yet closedown.



after the sister left, we went supermarketing. finally...after so long, im in a supermarket again. it's good to have a say as to what goes into the cart. got to choose the milk i want, the juice i want, the granolas/muesli i want, the shampoo/showergel i want, the gingerdigestives i want, the coke i want, the beef i want, the icecream i want, the tobasco i want, the tomato sauce... the cart-contents were so colorful and 'right'! then daddy bought beers cos he says the bottles are nice. dont they sell em everywhere? they have coke and sprite also what. heh, but i dont mind having the bottles. i need more bottles for my dried flowers. they're all crammin up in the wine bottles.

on our way home, i managed to chat with my parents. it's been..very long since i had time to talk to them, and actually, i never have time. but today i made time for them and i definitely enjoyed myself...at the expense of my work though. it's worth it i guess.

the only mistake-purchase for today is the shower gel. chose the wrong flavour la...they should have samples for us to try/smell or something. and seriously, the names and taglines on those products tell you NOTHING about 'em. 'calming', 'soothing'...[what's the diff?!?]--these are the different flavours for some brand. i tried to imagine 'calming' and 'soothing' along the supermarket aisle but to no avail. and puhlease! i am certain no shower gel can 'calm' me down, if im really really stressed/disturbed. i bet.

the wrath of marketing! so i skipped to the next brand and picked the color instead -- only to realise in the shower that the showergel i bought carries the smell of a whole 'body-shop' shop.
so i kept spinning around to smell myself. and i asked my mum if the showergel stinks and the clever mama wittily commented that "i think you not only have sensitive skin, you have an overly sensitive mind". alright, mother.

balloting on monday... and this is icky...why must they use That photo? wincewhinewince.
