Retail Therapy

Was quite perturbed with work issues lately. Kept making small little mistakes, which caused my boss to be rather unhappy with me. I am not sure is it because of my sensitvity or what. But I find that his tone seems to be less friendly and he tends to be less willing to share information with me as he prevously does.

Well.. looks like I have to start pulling up my socks and start concentrating on my work instead of web surfing and blogging all the time. Despite the light work load, i shouldnt let my hair down as I had been doing lately.. I think this has somehow affected my boss's perception and attitude towards me.

As this has been rather disturbing to me mentally, I started plunging into retail therapy for relief. Went on a shopping trip with Jeral and Puifong yesterday at Charles & Keith anchorpoint. I had initially no intention to purchase anything. However, upon glancing at the price tag, my retail madness instinct starts to creep into me. I start shopping like a fanatic. Trying shoes of shoes. Pointing at bags after bags. Of course, I still have my $$ saving rationale within me. Ended up bagging 2 bags at $25 each, a pair of boots at $30 and a pair of shoes at $17.50. This is even better than shopping at Bangkok.. haha.. In addition, as we managed to struggle to a $150 purchase, we get a Charles & Keith membership card and bag holder in return.

Crazy me, actually start to change into my new pair of boots and carrying the new bag after the purchase.. Yah.. no one actually bothers.. but auntie me for that day.. manage to transform into a vogue "auntie" after the dorning on of my new gear...

To top it all, the shopping centre had also given us a $10 voucher for purchases exceeding $180.. What a day..

Well.. the retail therapy does helps a little.. (after burning almost $100.. in my pocket)... I felt rather happy and excited yesterday... As my boss is on a 1 week break.. I am going to make use of this chance to revamp myself (work wise) - especially my working attitude and be more careful in the work issues that I am doing... Have been rather distracted and careless lately... I must be extremely careful......
