Greetings Internet of Friday.
It's ok, I know no one is reading these, oh well, maybe some day when I'm terribly lucky <3
I appear to have developed a taste for clothes shopping. Which is quite unlike me.
I am notorious for my lack of cloth shopping ability. I will drive me mum mad from the sheer lack of buying anything.
I generally don't like the latest fashions. They're either tasteless and bland, or not made for my body shape (lovely and shapely not straight as a stick...bothersome clothing for sticks), or obnoxious floral prints are in, or op-shop-esque cloths, or any other number of fashion disasters I won't waste mine or my mothers money on.
Essentially I've always been a t-shirt and jeans kind of a girl. As a child I was a trackpants and my mums old jumper kind of a kid. Always simple and easy.
Lately my taste in clothes has still been picky and relatively conservative, but I've been branching out . The biggest leap was when I started working at Kids Zone and bought a whole bunch of nice, tidy tops to wear. And I kind of like how I look in them. I plan to get more like.
Anyway, the most resent thing to sper on my purchasing of clothes has been LeakyCon 2011. I've been wanting and thinking of things to wear. I want to look good and leave a good impression, not look scruffy and forgettable. First was a top from my store...which is a kids store. It was meant to be a dress top to be worn with leggings etc...on me is it a shorter dress top, where the 'waist band' now sits snuggly under my boobies and makes for a nice baby-doll top. Not what it was intended for, but it fits and looks nice. $23
Second was today. It is end of season time here in New Zealand and all the winter stock is nicely on sale to make room for the incoming Spring stock. For the last week or so JayJays has had a few coats in the front of their shop marked down 50%. Today I decided 'Screw it! I need a nice warm, tidy coat'. So I got one. It's below bum, red tartan and looks quite nice on me I think. $39.
I think that'll be the end of my shopping expeditions for a while though. I shouldn't be spending needlessly if I want to make it to LeakyCon! Fun though.
The other big news is that Glenneh and Mazz should currently be in a plane bound for Los Angeles right now!!!
Gave my goodbye and good lucks before work today. Still jealous. Still excited for them!
I have demanded Red Vines.
Ah well! I just have to wait a year and then it will be my turn to be flying over to America <3333
So yeah, my day was good.
Got up 9.30 - 10.00 ish so I could hang with Glenn before he went. We went to the bakery down the road for late breakfast. Bought a steak and a potato-top mince pie...Glenn's tasted like cat, mine like it had been in the warmer FAR too long...they were fed to the bin alternatively. But the caramel slice I got was good!
Mazz came round, kicked it with us a small while, and then the two boys were off on their grand adventure to K-chan's American Wedding Extravaganza!!!!
I went to work sometime after that. Work was fine, though I had a grinding headache for a while into my shift. Not fun at all. I bought some Panadol and had the last of yesterdays Lift-Plus, while made me much better.
It was busy, so I had to push to get everything done before closing time, but I got there in the end and made my bus. No waiting in the cold (though not TOO cold today) for the last bus for an hour! Yay!!
Now I'm home. Wore my new coat walking from the bus stop to my house. It was warm <3
Had two Butter Chicken Sandwiches from the butter chicken Glenn made last night. Very delightful. Might have the rest of my cinnamon swirl bun later.
After I post this I think I'll read my fanfiction for a bit, maybe check Twitter periodically as I do. Won't stay up TOO late tonight, got work at 11.30am, so got to catch the 10.30am bus.
I forgot last week I started earlier and stayed up till 5am >.<. That was a LONG shift! not even Red Bull saved me fully.
So good night Internet Land. Stay your awesome self and fly safe!
<3 Expecto Kiwiland
