Sunday was a
fantastic day! Whoo whee~ Went out shopping with my family for the whole afternoon @Orchard Wheelock Place, & ate at my fav. place BigO (opp. nydc). It's
yummy. Then I went next door to buy my backpack from
Crumpler, but it turned out that the one I wanted was more for laptops than for books! I was so
disappointed. And my dad was so nice, he was willing to get it for me through it costed about $165 I think. But it would have been totally
worth it, becuase it was such a
funky bag. Groan.. So anyway, we went over to borders for a while, cos I wanted to get the new Dan Brown book
The Da Vinci Code, which I spent the
whole of today reading it, and it's such a great,
mind-boggling, exciting book I'll
have to read it again. But it was really, really interesting.
Everyone must go buy it! Some portions of it I don't believe, especially on those regarding Jesus Christ having another birthline and all that, but to each his/her own, so. And I found the book I've been looking for since practically
forever. Such a good day.
I managed to convince my dad to go
Zara and
ESPRIT with me (he hates shopping), & I would have bought the pretty skirts and shirts if the queue for the changing room hadn't been so long! >.< And then at Esprit, all the shirts I wanted (plus the shoes) were all sold out. Ack. But never mind, I came too late anyway. All the 50%-70% off stuff were like, size
L?! But it was fun I guess.
Then after dinner at 5th ave. I tried the
Hazelnut/choc and cookies&creme
Gelato after shopping @ coldstorage. My sis ate most of everything though, cos I was still reading Da Vinci's Code!
Anyway, today's
violin lesson sucked big time. I think it was the worst I've played in my life, & the crazy thing is that my exam is this thursday.
Oh woe is me! And I'm having some difficulty with the SS proposal. I mean, I've been trying to find out what
non-liberal communitarian means! And the pathetic thing is I might not even
need to know what it means! Argh. But Aster's a great SS partner! (: Very fun doing it with her. Went to JE Library to see if I could find any more Dan Brown books. It was all g o n e. The whole 'BRO' section was empty. What's wrong with the world.
So overall, Youth Day totally
sucked all the way, but Youth Day EVE rocked! (:
