Farewell and Goodbye

This is gonna be my last post for quite some time.

As you all know, i will be going to some parts of Europe and my flight will be today (Saturday) at 10.45am.
To name a few, i'll be going to Barcelona & Madrid (Spain), Lisbon (Portugal), Nice (France), Monte Carlo, The UK, and some other parts of Great Britain.

Yep, a lot of places to cover, and i will only be back next year.

I'm gonna miss a lot of stuffs.
I'm gonna miss a lot of things.
Semester will start a few days before New Year (what the fuck, right?).

This is a much needed getaway/vacation, to say the least.
It's been quite some time since my last holiday, so yeah, i'm really looking forward to it.

Let's just leave all the trouble and all the sialness behind.
Things haven't been peachy lately.
My grandma is sick and in the hospital, my results were good but some shitstuffs can't be avoided,
and there's also some other personal problems.

Hopefully, a new year will bring a new spirit, and i could become a better person.

I would also like to thank all of the other bloggers and my followers for reading this blog of mine and giving me feedbacks.
I really appreciate it.
Thanks a lot.

I'll try to update once i reach my sis's crib in Cambridge, UK.
Don't stop coming to my blog and do read my older posts, okay?
And DO click my Nuffnang ads to keep it alive yea guys?

I'll give you souvenirs, heheheh.




So, goodbye to all, wish me a safe trip,
Happy New Year 2010 in advance,
Merry Christmas,
stay safe, be safe,
play hard, party hard,
and enjoy your holidays!

And don't forget about me alright?

Who Says Guys Don't Shop Till They Drop?

The response from my previous post regarding the shopping mentality was quite a surprise, i must say.
I thought that most of my female readers would surely disagree, but hey,
looks like my observation is true enough huh?

It's easy to get a woman's attention, especially during the sale season.
Other than the number before the % and the initial price,
women are also driven by brands.

Come on lah, i've worked in the retail industry before.
So i know their strategies.
No rocket-science involved.

Okay, okay.
Of course, it is not entirely true either.
Not all women are like that.
But that's what the majority says, and does.
So, case closed.




True, nothing but true.

Still in the topic of shopping and sales,
i would like to share with you about something called
The Boxing Day Sales.

I'm sure that a lot of you knew about Boxing Day, right?
It's the day after Christmas... which means 26th of December, genius.
Just Google the word Boxing Day for more info, ok?

So, what's so special?

Well, the sales of course. Everything will be cheap, CHEAP, cheap!
But sadly, Malaysia does not really have this Boxing Day celebration thingy.
Well, kind of.
But at least there's the Year End Sale (YES) right?



I'll be going for my vacation in some parts of Europe in a few days time,
and yeah, come Boxing Day,
i will be in the thick of the action,
yup, London here i come again and again and again!

Why shop in Malaysia when you can shop in the shopping capital of the world?
Why buy things that are common here when you can buy something rare and hard to find?
muahahaha

But there's just too many things that i wanna buy that i don't even know where to start.
Wait, do i even have the money?
Damn.
Looks like i need to pinjam some duit from ah long! hehehe

Now, who says guys don't shop till they drop?

P/S: Nak kirim/pesan anything? hahaha

The Shopping Mentality

It's that time of the year again.
Nope, not the end of the year, not quite.
It's the year end sale.

Looks like everybody is in a shopping mood.
Not only the females, but the males, too, like to shop.
They, too, like to spend and splurge.

But from my point of view, i think that guys and girls have a different way,
or mentality,
when it comes to shopping.

Take a look at the picture.
It says,
Up to 70% off!



Of course, it is appealing, tempting, and just plain exciting, right?
 When looking at the picture, the females would most probably say,
OMG, it's 70%! So cheap! Let's go and buy!

While their male counterparts would most probably get just as excited, they would, however, think first,
Hmm.. 70%? So how much that's gonna be?

Do you agree with me?

Through my observations and research (ahem),
i have made some conclusions.

I see that women don't really mind about the final price.
To them, the initial price and the number before the % is more important.
For example,

OMG i just bought this shoes, only RM240!!
What?? That's expensive!
The 'before price' was RM800! 70% discount!! Huh!
But still, RM240 is a lot for that kind of shit.
But it's 70%!
Well, i certainly think that's a huge waste.
But it's 70%!

That's the typical female.
For men, however,
it's the final price that matters.

So, how much is this?
It's RM240, sir.
What? RM240?? No way.
But the original price is RM800, sir. 70% off sir!
I don't give a fuck. It's still expensive.

See the difference?
Agree?
Ever been in any of the two situations above?

The conclusion is, men use their brain when it comes to shopping and money.
Women just fucking don't.

(ahhh i can hear a lot of disgruntled readers already)
