Retail Therapy
To Jia Wei, thanks for your concern. I am feeling much better now. Perhaps retail therepy really works, arguably, in overcoming depression. Not sure if I was having depression this period of time...but yeah, you guys get what I mean.
Speaking of retail therapy, I spent a few hundred dollars yesterday. Of course, the money all came from my mum. Let's see, I bought a pair of slim-fit black jeans from Zara for my prom and future endeavours for $129, a pair of Reebok running shoes that costs $79.90 after a 20% discount, a pair of swimming googles for $16.90 (both the running shoes and the googles are purchased for NS use) and $9 was spent on my lunch and dinner. That's a grand total of $234.90.
Not any astronomical figure, but it was still quite a considerable amount spent. And fortunately it was enough to make me feel a little less melancholic.
To Jia Wei again, yes the incident affected me a little (for details, make some effort to understand my Chinese entries. Don't be lazy, people), but I have more or less gotten over it. I just find it a pity that they passed on at such young age and the realization that accidents can happen to physically-fit, kind-hearted people who have a passion for living makes me feel so helpless.
And I began to think about fate and stuff. Like how one of the deceased dragonboaters Boon San lived in Yishun and we probably have met each before at the MRT station, bus interchange or the Chong Pang market. Just that we have never known each other then and we never will. Just that I never noticed him then and never would I expect myself to mourn for him in future.
Never mind about all these. I must go enjoy all the stuff that I have bought.
P.S. I wore the new Reebok running shoes for my run this morning. I have never felt that comfortable running before, probably because I was always wearing WALKing shoes from Timberland to RUN.
Editted To Add: I forgot to include the price of the cheapest pair of rubber flip-flops I bought from Bata for NS use. The pair of slippers costs me $9.90, which bring the total amount spent on yesterday to $244.80
