confession of a window shopaholic

continued..

when we got into the mall,
my friends headed straight ahead to the loo,
which cost 0.50euros,
RM2.50.

it's like going to the toilet in the gardens.

the shops were still sleeping

so we went around,
and found a shop.

it was a café.

we saw a sign that opened our hearts.

"crêpe et café" 2 euro.
you dun have to know much french to understand that.

we thought it was with a *.
* term and conditions applied

we searched high and low for the *
but alas,
they meant what they wrote

we happily ordered a set each.

and,
well, they didn't lie.
but we got conned.

let's see the picture.
- coffee -
looks normal right?

now let's look at it from another point of view.

- coffee with crêpe -
still can't see the problem?

look at the tea spoon then the coffee.
there's only 2 sips.

and the crêpe taste like roti canai tambah gula.
oh well.

after we finish our branch,
i commenced our search for the perfect MAB dress.

sadly,
nothing can go with the theme.
white is juz not the colour for winter.
snow is enough white.

there were so many shops

it was heaven.

ZARA is so cheap to the french.
they're clothes are like 15 euro
25 euro.
ZARA!!!
imagine u're french.

then there was sephora,
the sasa of france.
they have perfume.
all the brands that u can think of,
at less than 100 euro for the biggest size.
imagine u're french.

then cosmetic
maybelline,
loreal
estee lauder
nivea
(yes, nivea also sells make-up)
a (good) mascara for 15 euro.
imagine u're french.

if i were a french~
i would buy stuff everyday~
i would go out in the morning
and come back only after seven~

(their shops close at 7)

imagine if you're french.

L.Y.O.N

06/12/09
i woke up before 4.
after twisting, turning, and rolling into a ball on bed,
i decided that there's no way i can fall asleep anymore.
it's time to accept the truth.

i made breakfast...
eggs and ham
with the long missed chili sauce and soya sauce.
first time i made breakfast for myself in france.

we were like vampires
fleeing Besancon before the sun came out.

we never returned
until the moon was hanging out with the stars

we fled to the third largest town in France

Lyon.

we walked all the way to the train station.
it waas still dark when the train started to take it's destined route.

we took pictures
i took pictures.it was dark.
then we grew tired because of the walking
we slept in our very own hogwards-express-styled-carriage,
it was still dark.

when i left my dear handsome boyfriend
in my dream
the sun was out.
yet,
it was nowhere near hot or sunny.

it was a(nother) winter day in france.

i can see horses and trees and fields and fields of green
leaving me in a blink of an eye.

after a few stopsand almost 3 hours
we were finally there.

part dieu.

we walked around la gare (the train station)

found a shopping mall right opposite the station
and you can guess what happened next.

i promised

daisies are white
the house is blue
i'm feeling bored
so i'm doing what i promised you

yes yes yes.
i'm in france.
but i suddenly woke up and missed malaysia.

i had the strangest dream.
there were tornadoes in malaysia.
butterworth to be exact.
one of them pulled my dear bro away.

the weather is ok here.
raining quite a lot.
the lowest i've been through is 7 degrees.
the highest 13.

i ate alot of cheese and
drank alot of wine.
after so many years,
i only realised that wine makes me sleepy.
very sleepy.

i love the old buildings here.
they don't have much new buildings.
everything is preserved. only the inside is changed.

the christmas decos are on already.
yay!!! haven't take any pictures yet.
i'm going out later so probably i'll take alot.

everything is cheap
if you work here.

i mean nice stuff too.

their carrefour sells pretty clothes.

so many vcute guys here. >____________<
now i know why there's not many in malaysia
they're all in a place called here!!!

it's been a week already.

this post is not really organised...

and no photos.

i tried uploading some but it took ages.

so, for more info about my life in france,

that's what jellyfish has to say.

epilogue...


i'm leaving on a jet plane.


before that,

i'd like to say goodbye

juz in case something happens.. (touch wood!!!) this won't be too little too late.

To everyone that's always on my mind,

dad, mom, sisters, bros, (in-laws too)

of course,

i will always love you.

try to remember

the time of september

when we walked on moon river

singing our song (we are only lonely~)

those were the days my friends

we thought they'd never end.

sadly, there'll never be an endless story,

but dun worry coz i'll always be close to you,

and the start of something new is near.

all my bags are packed,

i'm ready to go

but believe me,

even though i'm far away,

every time there's sunshine through my window,

i'll remember that ya'll are irreplaceable.

i will survive this one month coz i'm a big big girl

and big girls don't cry

right?





that's what jellyfish had to say before she leave...
Au revoir~! (gonna use that alot...)

enough mushy mushy... remember to miss me.. >_____________<
