now i know why i hate shopping... -.- met her yesterday at dbg (oops i was 30mins late! x.x) then (here began all the walking) walked to orchard...xin says she wanted to find orchard hotel so i kept thinking we were going there to look at yukatas. it was only after we actually reached the place that i realised she wanted to go japan embassy (which was near orchard hotel) LOL ._. so we walked from dhoby all the way to *somewhere* where we took a bus, then we somehow walked all the way up nassim hill (cos logically thinking nassim road should be somewhere near nassim hill mah!!) but ended up we had to come down the hill again, walk somemore, then finally we found nassim road!! dun know why they had to build the japan embassy at such an ulu place but we spent 2hrs looking for it! lolol =/
then we took a cab to bugis (i was feeling half dead by now liao x.x) where we found xin's obi (so ex! TT) and couldnt find my yukata cos being the lazy soul i am, i actually just wanted to find a set which ideally includes at least the yukata, geta, obi and that pouch thingy. then in that shop at most only got set of obi yukata and geta only...(not to mention i'm not very satisfied with the price and the designs loh. so many pink ones!! *shivers*) then we walked to (pardon me if i mess up my sequence cos i got abit comatose around here) haji lane where supposedly there was a house of japan but it 倒閉 already...D: at this point i gave up and we went to illuma for lunch/dinner (at 4pm~) AND HOH, the main motivation why we went there was for the 4 jubeat machines...thus imgaine our horror/disappointment where there wasnt even any sign of any jubeat machine. -.-
we ate at noodles empire (now i know why they were so enthusiastically looking for customers...). i asked them what was their soup of the day and they actually replied that it's the same everyday... ==" nvm i shall *hopefully* have my chicken soup at pizza hut tmr. :D then she had to go to office for work~so i continued my search in orchard with mh and hl...went to isetan in Lido then isetan in Tangs, then isetan in Wisma (AGAIN. i'm not going to any isetan for at least the next year. -.-) after that went to taka where i only saw very limited choices of yukata and geta, dun know why so many ppl in the forums recommend there...maybe next time when i go i shall ask the shop helpers (when i'm not as tired and not-thinking as i was yesterday). but i managed to find 2 pairs of booties for my dear nephew (SO CUTEEEEE!!! xD).
then we were supposed to go dhoby for arcade but mh's friend say far east got sell...so we went there and the shop's actually Haru (and the whole shop is soooo pink! i'm traumatized. ._.) but i couldnt see any yukatas i wanted...and they dun really come in sets. :X i really cant remember much from then on cos i was really like dead man walking LOL. oh yeah here's a pic of the super nice yukata i found online...but too bad the ordering period ended already.

---------i'm sorry i lied----------------from lovefatedestiny.com
Jenny was so happy about the house they had found. For once in her life that was on the right side of town. She unpacked her things with such great ease. As she watched her new curtains blow in the breeze. How wonderful it was to have her own room. School would be starting, she would have friends over soon. There will be sleep-overs, and parties. She was so happy. It's just the way she wanted her life to be.
On the first day of school, everything went great. She made new friends and even got a date! She thought, "I want to be popular and I'm going to be, because I just got a date with the star of the team!" To be known in this school you had to have a clout, and dating this guy would sure help her out. There was only one problem stopping her fate. Her parents had said she was too young to date. "Well I just won't tell them the entire truth. They won't know the difference. What's there to lose?"
Jenny asked to stay with her friends that night. Her parents frowned but said, "All right." Excited, she got ready for the big event. But as she rushed around like she had no sense, she began to feel guilty about all the lies, but what's a pizza, a party, and a moonlight ride? Well the pizza was good, and the party was great, and the moonlight ride would have to wait, for Jeff was half drunk by this time.
But he kissed her and said that he was just fine. Then the room filled with smoked and Jeff took a puff. Jenny couldn't believe he was smoking that stuff. Now Jeff was ready to ride to the point, but only after he'd smoked another joint.
They jumped in the car for the moonlight ride, not thinking that he was too drunk to drive. They finally made it to the point at last, and Jeff started trying to make a pass. A pass is not what Jenny wanted at all (and by a pass, I don't mean playing football.) "Perhaps my parents were right. Maybe I am too young. Boy, how could I ever, ever be so dumb?" With all of her might, she pushed Jeff away, "Please take me home, I don't want to stay."
Jeff cranked up the engine and floored the gas. In a matter of seconds they were going too fast. As Jeff drove on in a fit of wild anger, Jenny knew that her life was in danger. She begged and pleaded for him to slow down, but he just got faster as they neared the town. "Just let me get home! I'll confess that I lied. I really went out for a moonlight ride."
Then all of a sudden, she saw a big flash. "Oh God, Please help us! We're going to crash!" She doesn't remember the force of impact. Just that everything all of a sudden went black. She felt someone remove her from the twisted rubble, and heard, "Call an ambulance! These kids are in trouble!" Voices she heard, a few words at best. But she knew there were two cars involved in the wreck.
Then wondered to herself if Jeff was all right, and if the people in the other car was alive. She awoke in the hospital to faces so sad. "You've been in a wreck and it looks pretty bad." These voices echoed inside her head, as they gently told her that Jeff was dead. They said "Jenny, we've done all we can do. But it looks as if we'll lose you too." "But the people in the other car?" Jenny cried. "We're sorry, Jenny, they also died."
Jenny prayed, "God, forgive me for what I've done. I only wanted to have just one night of fun." "Tell those people's family, I've made their lives dim, and wish I could return their families to them." "Tell Mom and Dad I'm sorry I lied, and that it's my fault so many have died. Oh, nurse, won't you please tell them that for me?"
The nurse just stood there. She never agreed. But took Jenny's hand with tears in her eyes. And a few moments later Jenny died. A man asked the nurse, "Why didn't you do your best to bid that girl her one last request?" She looked at the man with eyes so sad. "Because the people in the other car were her mom and dad."
