City gal… shopping gal…

May 17, 2008

I am a city gal through n’ through… I love the shops, love the buzz, love the food, love the FASHION n’ all things beautiful.

‘celebrated a beloved friend’s birthday today at The Tea Room at the QVB today n’ it was pure joy with delectable scones and a grand reunion of friends. Even though the large majority of us were from church, it’s not always easy to gather together often enough. I was thoroughly stuffed after having Afternoon tea with Black Lavender tea… so it was only right that we went shopping after!!! Well that’s WINDOW SHOPPING now actually after my spending ban… (else I will not have a plane ticket to Cape Town if I keep shopping!!!)

It was satisfying nonetheless! I have never quite figured out why but perhaps ‘roaming’ the shops gives me a certain sense of familiarity n’ security associated with growing up in a shopping-crazy society. Haha! I try not to generalise… but today a friend mentioned that her shopping life ‘died’ a couple of years ago when her Singaporean friend left Sydney… n’ apparently I have resurrected it now! Ha! Perhaps Singaporeans were bred to induce shopping traits… ‘it’s a conspiracy…’
