Two Dollars

Okay, so I've been bored out of my mind to the point of sleeping at 2am, waking up at 12, sitting in front of my laptop watching movies and series or reading Twilight only going out of my room for toilet breaks and food(which incidentally, I eat in front of my laptop!) Gosh, glad that phase is over! After days of self lock down, I finally broke. What triggered it? The fact that all that lovely SALE everywhere will be coming to an end soon, probably this Tuesday in fact. The ongoing sale is the end of financial year sale and after about 4 years of studying accounting, I can tell you why! (C0mmon sense can tell you why as well) Its just because they want to boost sales up as much as possible to figures will look pretty when they prepare their financial report. I think I can actually go on a bit more on this topic, why this months sales/cash figure will be inaccurate, but I better stop myself NOW.

Another concious decision is that I dont mind having few blog readers. I want this blog, my blog to be my own personal space. To not worry at times that perhaps I'm telling the world too much about my mundane life. So screw trying to get Nuffnang ads campaign and screw whoring my blog out in Innit (not that either one of those is bad, who doesn't want moolah)

On the happy happy joy side of things, the brief moment of sunshine in this gloomy, rainy and stormy Perth weather, there's a circus is town! And I will bug, bug and bug my sister till we get to go! Its the Circus Joseph Ashton and they've got tiny bonsai horses! LOL. I've never been to a circus before either, so I REALLY WANT TO GO! *pouts*

Last night I intentionally went to The City of Perth website to check out if shops open on Sundays and to my surprise, they DO! So I went on a little shopping trip today and got some great bargains! Public transports on weekends are a real bitch because the buses and trains dont run so often. Walked around the very quiet city first only to find Diva closed. bummer. Promotion now is 3 items for $10 so I don't plan on missing out. I think this promotion has been around for a couple of week but I only just found out! Oh, and I walked from Harbor Town to the train station (approx 10-15 minutes walk) just because I don't see the point of waiting half an hour for the Yellow Cat! Evil as I am, I was laughing inside as I was walking and it started raining and I saw people scrambling for cover of bracing the rain. TeeHee. Carrying a large umbrella is so unglam and troublesome ok! Please dont attempt to use those cute folding umbrellas in this weather because the wind gets pretty strong.

In relation to today, I shall share with you what you can get for $2!

You can get this pretty candle set for just two dollars! Bought it from one of those discount stores. :)


You can get this stringy necklace for just two dollars!
There were plenty more earrings for two dollars as well.

But best of all...

You can get a swim suit!
Mix and Match from Cotton On Body.
Black tankini top. The discounted price was $10...
Pink bikini bottom (didn't have black) for $2.
Imagine my delighted surprise when the cashier said "that'll be $4 please"


and for $2 x 10 I finally got the shoes that I've been eyeing for a long time now!
Look at 'em cute in pink and with hearts! hehehehe.
They're comfy too!

Can't wait to get out of my rut and finally do some things fun and explore Perth! Probably will drop by Diva tomorrow just because I'm kia-su.

take care people.
Happy holidays!
