BOOTS

i was writing a long-ass post last night after i came home from midvalley after having dinner with the rest of the chambees at nando's. halfway through... i pulled the ac plug from my laptop and normally when i do that the battery would kick in... but this time, it didnt and the whole laptop shut down and together with it, my post which i did not save. *sigh* and now i'm in no mood to do that post anymore.

but instead... let's talk about BOOTS, just like my subject up there says... "BOOTS".

and no, i'm not talking about the footwear. i'm talking about the mega chain drugstore.. Boots.

no comprendo? check out the link... BOOTS.

understand now?

what's there to talk about?

well, i MISS it like crazy. especially the one in eldon square, newcastle. i used to spend like a really long time in there. just looking and trying out all the things they have there. the row of cosmetics, the perfume, the dyes, the range of facial care. *sigh* i really miss boots. i really do.

but i guess it's more of missing the uk lifestyle i had. the freedom to do whatever i want. the freedom to go wherever i want. the freedom. i think i miss my freedom. it was bliss for me living abroad. and newcastle was superb. sure there were times when i missed home, missed malaysia... but one thing i did not miss was definitely my lack of freedom in malaysia.

and what brought on this longing for boots?

i was in guardian and watsons today in 1 utama and the selection we have here was soooooooo miniscule compared to boots. there are things here that boots dont have but malaysia have but still... the choices are limited. the things expensive. not much testers. it's just different. makes me wonder why don't we have boots or superdrug here. i'm sure if boots or superdrug would open here they would send guardian and watsons into winding up.

but then again, even if boots or superdrug opened up here, it wouldn't be the same. i wouldn't have the same amount of freedom and time to linger around just like i used to do in newcastle. things will never be the same.

I MISS BOOTS!!!

oh gosh.. i just found out that boots have chains in not only Britain, but also in USA, Finland, Iceland, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Romania, Russia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Taiwan and... AND... coming soon... KUWAIT, DUBAI, THAILAND AND INDONESIA!!!

what about MALAYSIA!?!?!

*sigh*

I MISS BOOTS!!! and MY FREEDOM!!!
