winter sales and earthquake?
sales has officially started. everything (well, almost) is on sale! Next started their sales at 5am today... some people i know actually really got up early and walked all the way there! *swt* reminds me of me last year. i was actually woken up by the guys (yes, GUYS) at 4am on Boxing Day to go shopping at Next with them! *swt* the madness... apart from Next, the other shops were also on sale... like H&M, Zara, FCUK, River Island, Fenwick, M&S, Republic, USC, Body Shop, Virgin, HMV, Boots, Pilot, Miss Selfridge, Topshop, Top Man etc etc etc... yadayadayada... and the list goes on.
omg, the amount of people out there was... omg... it was scary! everyone, literally everybody, had at least a bag in their hands. the amount of spending... whoa... those shops must be raking in thousands! the flow of human bodies out there... omg, it is... it is... indescribable. u have to see it and u'll understand. queues for fitting rooms and to the cashier loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong! some shops just closed their fitting rooms. yeah, so people had to buy clothing without knowing if it fits or if it looks nice on them. but the best thing about it is, u get to refund or exchange it after the 28th. up to a month.
though i went out today, i didn't buy anything. wasn't in the mood. take one look at the crowd and the queues and i give up. that's why i've decided not to go anywhere until the 29th. it's bank holiday these 2 days, 27th and 28th. that's why there's so many people out. 29th should be better. i hope. i really wanna find my boots... and my lil' black handbag for dining. and mebbe some jeans or slacks or skirt or dress or *hehehe* clothing lah! if i see something i like that is... if i see something i really like and i would wear it... if it's cheap and worth it... see? i'm not a big spender... :p
anyways, what kinda person am i? i'm talking about sales and shopping when something major has happened back home... :( so, on a more serious note...
earthquake in malaysia?! that's a first... i didn't believe it at all. my sis msn-ed me while i was away and all she said was "earthquake earthquake earthquake :)" and the first thought that ran thru my mind was "oh, swensens ice cream - earthquake". and then i started seeing my frens' nicks on msn... and then i checked out the star. and then only did i realised what was happening. omg. as of now, the death toll has risen up to 53 with 34 reported missing (click here) and it's all becos of the tidal waves! good grief... my dad was telling me about some people who were hanging around the seaside waiting for the waves to come and when the waves did come, they would all run for their lives laughing. *swt* what is wrong with these people?!

people in tall buildings could feel the tremors... especially in kl too. and i'm worried. aftershocks of up to 5 on the richter scale can still be felt around the earthquake area. buildings in m'sia aren't built like those in earthquake prone countries... they might have a slight allowance for slight tremors but a 5 on the richter scale?! :( who knows what might happen... *touchwood* hopefully nothing worse will happen... what a way to end the year... 2004 planning on exiting with a bang?! *sigh*
prayers to those who has lost their loved ones, to those waiting for their loved ones to be found... and to everyone affected...
be careful ok? :(
