Belated Post - December Expenditures

Alright I'll admit it, I love shopping, I adore shopping. I might even have a mild shopaholic syndrome (whatever that means). Once the date hits December (last year), it seems like my "season of giving/buying" had been activated. Everywhere I go I see potential Christmas Gifts even before I knew who I was suppose to give the presents to. OTL

But can you really blame me? All the shops had been seducing me with their tempting word "Christmas Sales"! Well....and other pretty stuffs >.<

Makeup

M.O.S.S Warehouse Sales

I was working so I had Edris helping me to buy all the stuffs. CandyDoll was on I think around 20-30% off? Too bad they didnt put the Eyemazing X Zipper Lashes to sale. I was so looking forward to that >.< 

Mandom Sales

All those DollyWink Lashes for just $12 Each!!
Of course I have to snatch it!
They only have the lower lashes though. Probably because generally, people don't like to use lower lashes...

One of my happiest sales haul I've gone to. Immediately bagged 3 packs of Number 13. 
After all that, I realised I should had gotten Number 14 too OTL...
The Dollywink Eyeshadow was just $8!! Awesomely LOW price. No wonder it is just for a day. LOL
Also gotten those sweet smelling BabyVeil sprays XD

Fashion

JRunway

Ok, there was not much of a major sale for JRunway. I am just so in love with their wide range of Japanese Apparels that I can't help but get drawn to the store >.<

 Bagged a Putumayo Hoodie the 2nd time I went.
Too cute, can't resist >.< 

Fit All You Can 3 - by Marked down Market X Victoria Jomo

My first ever Fashion Buffet! Initially when I saw the promotion on FB, I was unsure if I would like it there. I mean, I can never shop so fast and honestly, I dislike being squashed.  However, coming back for the third time, Victoria Jomo well organised the event so that every shopper can have a comfortable shopping experience by limiting the number of people to enter the shop per slots.
WeeYin won a VIP slot and was able to bring 3 friends with her for the shopping spree so I was really thankful for her to invite me XD  

The $55 bag. I thought it was small, but I was still able to squeeze in quite a number of dresses and tops XD
I woke up late that day and had to cab down to Haji Lane for the FashionBuffet. So I guess in total I spent $75 for this spree? Haha

My total hauls. Spot a bag!! Yes, I bagged a bag!
4 dresses, 3 tops, 1 wallet and a bag!


 Movies

And...not forgetting the movies I've watched. Seriously, I have watched more movies in cinema this month than the rest of the year put together! Strangely, The Hobbit  was not on the list >.<

 Pitch Perfect
Like an all-girls Glee Club with plenty of laughs.
However, it was not so much of a story plot, in my opinion. 
The singing wise is good though, definitely better than High School Musical. LOL

Les Miserables

Ah~ a real tear-jerking movie. 
I've never watched the musical or read the novel so what drew me in was the choice of cast for this movie. 
Put them all in the settling of post-French Revolution and I'm already sold. 
Couldn't say I'm that much of a big fan of Movie-Cum-Musical (Phantom of the Opera (2004) was great though!) because of all the singing-their-conversations parts, which is a bit annoying actually
That being said, this movie is, as quoted from my bro, "The best movie of the Century". (Y)

The Intouchables
This was introduced to me by my colleague who watched it online. I thought it was an old movie so I was rather shocked when I found this in the newspapers at the Cathay's Showing Now section. A french movie based on a true story, this movie is incredibly humorous. I was laughing throughout the film (with a few stops in between to experience sorrow)
I really recommend this :) 

Wreck-It Raph
2 words , "Toys Story".  That describes how I feel when I saw the arcade characters doing their own stuff 'after work'. A refreshing animation with interesting theories on "What the happens to the arcade after the store closes for the day"
Hmm, do I make sense? HAHA.


This blog post is to remind myself how much I had spent on this single month alone, forcing myself to save up more this year.
See how much you had spurged?
NOW SAVE!
