Naze ima koko ni iru no?  
Since [info]artavias commented that I'd been neglecting my LJ again ( which i reserve for a lot of random jrock spam and image spazz ), this is a copy and paste job from the main blog! HUZZAH !! ( and I waste the internet again! )

++++

Still wondering what am I doing here on a Sunday, but it had became a regular habit of mine to spend at least a weekend or two in a month in the office. By strange chance, I manage to skip work yesterday. Knowing full well that my Sunday is screwed anyway, both of us lepak- deprived girls decided to go mad and go all out to Sungei Wang ( a spot that we adore for the funky and cheap stuff they have in abundance but sadly yours truly is too dumb to figure her way to drive there XD;;; ) And so, with the convenience of LRT and monorail, I'm so ditching my car at the nearest train station XD

Ahhhh Sungei Wang ! How I missed thee ~ I'd just realized yesterday my usual conception of the crowds that hang out at this particular mall had changed from the last time I actually managed to walk around on my own leisure to observe the shops and the people ( last I went was for a concert nearby last month and it was a hell of a rush the whole time ) Apart from the regular ah lian and ah beng-ness of many there, this place had became a haven for street fashion! I ended up observing and staring at random stranger with -fashionably cool- strange hairstyle and mish mash of clothes and fashion. It is really refreshing from the usual crowd that I see everywhere else ( THAT, or I'd just not been out in the public for very pathetically long time )

We discovered that the Malaysian MEGA SALES just started on the same day yesterday! Small wonder there's sales everywhere in every shop that we run into. Initially, I'm just looking for a bag where as The Onion wanted to shop for some clothes. Feeling comfortable that I have only one item in mind, I accompanied her to round up on every shops possible ( hey! we have all time in the world to kill yesterday =P ) One bag? No worries, I'm not gonna spend more than THAT!

WRONG!

I ended up getting everything else OTHER than a bag T____T and three times more than what I'd expected at the beginning of the day. Will power, PEH ! T___T

But oh well, it was a day of discovery as well as I discovered that she has a tendency to like hippies-fashion ( with retro color scheme ) and me, I was so damned suckered by laces, the only really girly thing that I think I'll ever make myself wear XD Though she did mentioned, black laces are not exactly girly to begin with *cough* Me, goth ? Naaawwww ...

But I'm actually out shopping for CLOTHES. Instead of books and CDs, my Mum will be so proud of me XD;;; ( and girly stuff as well, since I'd actually bought a short skirt, with kickass chunky belts, and black laces at the bottom! Er .. )


PS : I'm working temporarily on a 17in LCD monitor because the CRT in the office *DIED* !!! HUZZAH !!! Finally! Resolution higher than crappo 1024x768 !!

なぜならあやちゃんはラルクが超大好きわよ!(笑)
Because Aya-chan effin' loves Laruku! *lafs*

I really love reading your longer posts, because I can close my eyes and just imagine what that shopping mall must have been like! I came from a place where the Gap and Eddie Bauer are the stores of choice. People dress nicely, but they seem so plain to my eyes, now.

The tough part for me is that I'd love to change my look, but at an American size 10-12, I'm about one size too big for most Japanese stores. I definitely want to start buying some cool clothes, one piece at a time, but finding the places that stock bigger sizes is so difficult!

LOL. I have to resort to crossing my fingers everytime I typed more than neessary for these longer post because I tend to ramble on without really knowing what I *did* type. I should really try to put a stop to my endless run on sentences lol.

I actually went shopping that day because my shopping partner is eyeing a total revamp of her wardrobe. I for one is a very boring person when it comes to what i wear to the point that my Mum has to stop me from buying a certain sort of design/style because I ended up having the same lookalike XD XDD ( plus, I'm usually too lazy to decide what to wear and just drag on the first thing i see in the morning ( I'm a sad excuse for a being of female persuasion ! )

I love observing people that can pull off varieties of funky street fashion. That's why it's one of the thing I must do if I ever go to Japan is to spend an entire weekend in Harajuku ogling at the weird fashionable crowd there

I tend to wear the same styles too, but your skirt sounds really cool! I'm starting to love the Jrock/punk/street look, but lately, I've noticed a lot more "shake your booty in tap pants that let it all hang out" styles, which doesn't seem...Asian to me.

Osaka's AmeMura is a lot like Harajuku. I wandered around down there last weekend, and I think I should be taking more trips down there and checking out the clothing stores. I'd love to weird out my family the next time I see them!

I'm always wandering around with just sleeveless top and jeans XD My boss remarked that the day I wear skirt to the office is the day he'll win the lottery XD;;;;

I adore my skirt indeed! i'm still looking for some sort of occasion to wear them though XD;;;;; It looks like some out of Ai Yazawa's NANA *laughs* Now i just have to look for other pieces of strangeness to wear them with :P

shake your booty in tap pants that let it all hang out"
You mean like the hip hop fashion? My lil brother has a friend that was totally mad about the whole sub culture. I threaten my lil brother that if I ever see him wearing those pants that looks like it'll fall off anytime soon, I'll just step on them and REALLY make the fall off D:< ( me, the evil sister lol )

Oooh ~ do tell me more about wht you can see and buy there. Going shopping for weird street fashion stuff in Japan is one of the thing I REALLY REALLY wanna do XD; Plus, I finally came to term that I'm a closet fan of goth-punk fashion XD;;; ( which explains my instant liking for anything in black lace LOL )

Girls with short skirts will get woo-hooed. It's a universal law.

*Aya chan's mom taking over MK's post ability.* My dear girl ah.. I am SO SO very proud of you.. *cries* My little girl has all grown up!! ^^ *gives MK back her body*

That wasn't a happy experience being taken over by your kaasan.. lol.. Just joking.. Glad you went shopping.. I miss SGW Plaza as well.. All the shops.. cough anime..cough.. lol..
☆★☆ i will show to you the stars ☆★☆: *chu*[info]hydeism on July 27th, 2005 09:57 am (UTC)
My Mum'll most probably go, "Finally, you're starting to wear skirt. Good. Now when can I convince you that Gackt is better looking than that short man you're so obsessed over with?"

Ahhh Sg Wang ~~~ I love the clothes shop there! It's so cheap and strange and fun ~~
grayish__wing[info]grayish__wing on July 27th, 2005 10:48 am (UTC)
Heheh mom was glad that I bought 2 skirts last year as well.. but I don't wear them much.. only during summer here do I wear them... My mom goes... "You inherited MY legs, you should be born to wear a skirt.. God knows how long it took me to get over the Primary 6 prom you went to where you were supposed to wear a skirt but opted to wear slacks instead.." and a whole lot of sighing ensues..

heheh I don't think your kaasan will be able to do anything to convince you that Gackt is better looking than Hyde... XD NOTHING!

Heheh I love the stuff with a bit of fish net.. Like the fish net tops!! I want one of them.. heheh XD

Bwahha ~ I only wear dresses and what not on special occasion like Chinese New Year or my Grandfather's birthday celebration or something XD XDDD I have no idea when did I developed the thinking that me wearing a skirt = looking like a transvestite XD;;;;;; ( which is funny since i wear skirt back in secondary school and stopped doing so after I finished my SPM )

NOTHING ! hyde is the absolute definition of good looking man in my book WAHAHAHA XD XDD

*cough* I have this thing for black laced socks WAHAHAHA ( as a matter of fact, I'd bought one and is so in love with it, now i have to find a fish netty gloves to go with it XD XDDD -- but I still want a Toshiya's blue and white stripes stocking damnit! )
grayish__wing[info]grayish__wing on July 27th, 2005 11:40 am (UTC)
Hahah me too!! My mom has to make me go shopping just to look for that nice thing (ahem respectable) to wear to these functions.. Gah.. and oooh in school ALL I wore was baju kurung and only on mondays I wore the shirt and skirt coz duh.. monday's it was a rule in my place.. XD

Heheh I wouldn't dare disagree with you on how Hyde looks..

Ooh I would really want a pair of striped socks.. and that top too.. *pout* heheh if you want fish net gloves, I know where to find them here in Melbourne if you want a pair.. ^^
☆★☆ i will show to you the stars ☆★☆: *chu*[info]hydeism on July 28th, 2005 03:44 am (UTC)
Hahah I actually liked the pinafore. I refused to wear baju kurung though since it's so long and I hated the idea of dragging so much cloth with me when I'm walking back in school. But I ended up a prefect since Form4 so I get to wear that cool blazer minus pinafore and white skirt XD

Really ? You know where in Melbourne ? The ones I saw here are sorta on the short side - which is sorta cute as well ( most probably I'll get it the next time XD ) but I'm looking for a longer one. Have you seen A Series of Unfortunate Event? I wanted one that Violet's wearing XD XDD

Ahh I should start a list on stupid things I have no idea what to do with but I still wanna buy XD
grayish__wing[info]grayish__wing on July 28th, 2005 09:07 am (UTC)
I hated the pinafore... so restricting.. bleh.. The baju kurung was more loose and we'd roll up the sleeves so it's not so hot... coz I was prefect I only had to wear in when it was Monday. We hated the blazers.. I mean stuff it!! Who can wear blazers in the hot sun?!? Mad?!

Hahah I will keep a look out for the gloves then.. ^^

I made a list but I haven't found it yet.. it's lying around my mess somewhere lol..
