shop shop shop

Today is shopping day everyone. Went down to many places to get my wet gears. And i Finally after 1 week returned back to the shop that has one of the s*ckiest salesperson there. The story have to go back to the 3rd of november.

It was my bday on the 3rd and i received blades for my bday on tt day. It was ex man. Thank you everyone. My instructors bought me the blades. To tink back now how come we din take any pics at all ... hmmmm ... the camera ger (liling) nvr do her job well ................

Had to push all the blame to her cos she has a beautiful pink digital cam now and likes to show off tt to me.

Anyway back to the story, the blade was of a cool grey and light orange a colour sport and will not get dirty easily. Was trying on the blades on tt day .. but ..

IM A BIG FOOT!

it was very tight on my left feet and i can feel the aching once i slip on the left side. The right side is ok. Tink my feet may have grown over the years again after puberty period is even over. Sad =( why doesnt my height goes with my feet like how it should usually works, then i will be on par with bao and caixia (1.7m and above). Hahah but luckily in my height family i still have ppl like shayne xinyi and joyce(1.6m and above). The other mini family (1.6m and below) will consist of ziwan audrey liling eileen jue zariah mich.ad and many many more. kikikikiki ... most prob only ziwan will chance upon this so the rest will not noe la .. if they noe .. ziwan i noe is u ok.

Talking about that i realize lynette and mich (1.65m - 1.7m) is also about the same height but their range is the unique range because they are between the height of bao and me. Very few people are like that. Peizhi and bengli will most probably be in my height family as well. Hmmm .. so my height range is considered the average gers height (dont care).

ok back to the blade thing .. anyway once i wear the blades i will be bao and caixia's height lo.

So i went down to change the blades at Skater world. I so dont like the sales guy i tell you. When i step in i swear i really talk to him nicely. I said the blades are too small he take a look at my feet and he say ya .. kan de chu in chinese very sacarstically. He checked the blades and said that the model that i had do not have my size if i want and he ask me to look around and get another model.

He den went back to entertain other customers. Maybe you know they wont earn any comission from us ma so they **** care us (frad and me) lor. We were left alone to tend to ourselves while this punk serve other ang mors.

The balde that i had was about 200 when i look at all the other blades they were either less or 300+ only one of it is $250 and its pretty nice neh. If not mistaken its caixia's blades as well. I was very attracted to the prints on the rim of the skates.

nice right. The design looks sophiscated and cool and it covers the whole rim. Next take a look at the wheels:

Very nice and simple and lastly this part that most gers will go gaga over:

So can u imagime its the most eligible blade that i can have at that point of time so i requested to try on. He took out the foot pad in the blade and measured my leg beside and he said this.

ITS TOO BIG FOR YOU.

I look down but i seriously felt that it was alright. After much insistion i still try on the blades. While wearing it on .. he said this its too big for you right .. den i said no leh its ok .. and he said the next sentence:

ITS OK FOR YOU BUT ITS NOT OK FOR US!

Fuming mad i was man. I looked at fraddy .. and guess wat .. he just look tired after the confinement... humpff =(

He said wat if you blade and fall come back to our shop ans accuse us of selling bigger blades to u. Crazy guy. I know my feet man. Its really just nice and comfortable i told him alredy. This guy is so full of himself. One day surely get whack back by some ang mor hard hard one.

I insisted on taking the blades. He gave a call back to someone to ask on the payment details on how to settle the difference. Mention me as "Na ge nu de" so no manners man. In front of me directly somemore. Wat happened is when caixia and bao bought there is a discount of $9 and instaed of paying $199 for the previous blades they only paid $190. But when he charged me on the $250 blade i had to payback the discount. Even more mad. Both fraddy and i were too tired to only realize this later after we left the shop.

The worst part is they checked my previous skates but they never asked me to take the blade strap with me. I tot it was supposed to come along with every blade but when i call bao and caixia they said they requested for it one. Nabeh .. i must fing xinyi together and go and whack that guy man.

In the end luckily i took a namecard so called to say will go back to take another day. Wabnted to leave our names and he say no need. Wat the !@#$% so arrogant man!

So today went back to take this strap:

i notice the plastic around it was alredy gone he may have passed me some 2nd hand stuff but nvm i had enough dont want to argue with him anymore. So evryone pls take note do not go to the following shop that i am going to list down to buy ur blades anymore. Im sure there will be a place that will sell even cheaper and nicer blades then there with an even better service.

I bought my blades at the Peninsula Plaza shopping centre outlet, If you die die need to really get blades from skaters world i will still fren you if you go over to the Queensway shopping centre outlet. I believe the cork salesman is based at the Peninsula Plaza. Saving up $ to hire assassin to finish him off soon man.

Ok back to today after getting back my blades strap i went to different places to find my Lycra tops.

Pacific Plaza: No long sleeve stocks available or the designs are u*ly
Heeren: Sends cold sweat down ur whole body with its ugly straps & pokka dots (liling's fav)
Plaza Spore: Sends cold sweat down ur whole body with its ugly straps & pokka dots (liling's fav)
Raffles City Billabong: Nice ones are out
Peninsula Plaza: Cannot make it
Citylink Flash and Splash: Sends cold sweat down ur whole body with its ugly straps & pooka dots (liling's fav)
Marina Square O'Neil Shop: Expensive and not practical. Brand not outstanding too
Marina Square Fitness Shop: Unknown brand and ugly designs
Maraina Square Quiksilver shop: None (No lycra tops at all even though they endorse a huge range of roxy)

But finally when i came to Marina Square Ripcurl i found what i wanted!

This is a short sleeve black lycra top with golden words printed on both side of the top. Best of all its unique and the price is an amazing $42!!!!!!!!

Yes. I just realize it as well. It looks abit like some coca-cola top. But anyay its a red long sleeve lycra top with white prints and guess the price .......................................................................... its only $46!! amazing hah! Normally this can go up to $79 for a long sleeve top.

But this is actually not a bargain that i got from a sale. If ur looking for these lycra tops as well .. remember to go over to marina square ripcurl kids section. I got the biggest size out of both pieces.

When im done with the tops i still need my wet shoes. Took a bus to beach road. Decided to go over to concourse first. Entered oceanic shop and i found what i wanted:

It $26. I know beach road is selling gsport at 20 only but i like this brand better la. But i only realize that i forgot to bargain until after i pay.

Haiya .. luckily all these i will be reimbursing back with PA. I may seem to have bought quite a sum but i still have budget left. Thinking of if to get tights with the remaining $ anot.

Shopped at concourse today and found many ideas for xmas presents. Have to save up soon for xmas =)

My dream to have

hah greedy rite

Before i end off i was typing halfway and suddenly hear breathing sounds behind my direction and turned and saw it again. Quickly enough i on the white lights without her notice and took the next 2 pictures:

zoom-in

Yes its her with her amazingly gymnastic stunt again (but clearer view of how lazy like a pig this dog is)
