im not supposed to celebrate this chinese new year. at all. well, it's going to be really boring. but i guess it wouldnt be that much different. im not really that interested in traditions and i didnt usually have a lot of fun during past chinese new years... im rambling.
but the usual hype over the quickly approaching chinese new year is definitely fuelling my seemingly insatiable desire to shop.
and the thing is i always never get any good bargains, even when sales are everywhere. speaking of which i realised that the salespeople are more courteous and helpful this time round, compared to the past sales. and i dont remember any past sales that are as big as this. pathetic attempt to encourage spending, i say. because firstly, the kind of sale items they put out confirmed my theory that the items are on sale for a reason - they're not nice at all, nobody buys them and that's why they're banished to the 'sale' rack. secondly, you horrible salespeople are supposed to be courteous and helpful at all times - because that's part of your job - and not vary your attitudes according to the economic conditions. sometimes the sudden change towards better attitudes just make me wish that they would just buzz off.
or maybe it's just me. i think too much. and im definitely PMSING! no worries - ever since the previous horrible PMS and cramps, ive been anticipating this one. does the word anticipate have an element of excitement? if yes then it's a terribly wrong choice of word because im definitely NOT looking forward to my next period.
boy am i being really, really, really weird!

i dont usually talk like that. really.
