ayamas and more shopping accidents

i finally got to buy Ayamas for dinner yesterday. yay! i love their pepper roaster, so they have this set that's sorta like nasi ayam, Ayamas-style which i would indulge myself in. yummy. i haven't had it for a while and while i was pulling my hair out in frustration over this issue that i was supposed to solve at work, the thought of Ayamas suddenly passed through my mind. haha. i think i was hungry that time. the only outlet i was familiar with is at Kelana Jaya, so on Wednesday i told myself i would stop by after work, after making a short detour to MidValley =P.

the unfortunate thing was, the issue took up a bit more of my time than i had wanted it to so i ended up leaving the office later than usual... reached MidValley at 8+pm... browsed through MNG for like about an hour (most of the time occupied queueing up at the dressing room, sigh) then left at 9.20+pm and drove like a madwoman to get to Kelana Jaya, hoping that the store would still be open. it wasn't. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... (apparently operating hours were from 9.30am to 9.30pm. sobs).

so i didn't get to have my Ayamas roaster dinner that night. but i did get to have it the next night (yesterday) =P. and i managed to solve my work issue too. yay!

on another note, the reason why i was so determined to go to MNG was last week when i was there, there was this really nice dress in XS size i found among the pile of clothings, but for some reason only the universe knows why, i didn't get it. save money konon. the next day a colleague of mine purchased it, the exact same size and it was apparently the last one. how ironic is that? for some stupid reason the dress got stuck in my brain so i got abit obsessed in finding it. unfortunately Sunway's outlet didn't carry it, and MidValley's outlet didn't carry it either =( so ended up getting three MNG tank tops as a consolation (which wasn't in my agenda, which means i spent money that i wasn't supposed to in the first place, argghh). my friend told me to give up on the dress already.

and another thing? zara was on sale yesterday. and i went nuts there. apparently cardigans are the craze now (MNG had lots of it on sale, Zara had tons on sale too) so i bought a couple more things there too. huwaaaaaaaaaaaa... i'm the type that easily gets influenced, such as when i see someone wearing something and it really looks nice on her, i'd go out and look for more or less the exact same thing. it's not a good habit i know, but still... =P

within the week i also made other purchases elsewhere. i bought Significant Other a Nike T-shirt, and for myself a pair of Ipanema sandals from the Giselle collection. we went shopping last weekend at Pyramid and Studio R was out of the size he wanted, so i managed to get it at KLCC in his size and gave it to him as a present (see how nice i am? haha puji diri sendiri). we also bought a couple of things at Jusco (and the damage cannot be compared to MNG or Zara, ok =P).

and there you have it for my shopping spree disasters this whole week. i confirm that i have gone completely nuts in the shopping department and i now solemnly vow to leave all my credit cards at home and only buy when i NEED something. seriously!
