My Shopping Therapy

Last evening I was out shopping with mom, dad and Joyce at One-U. My plan was to get Jacob some nice baby GAP t-shirts and just that, nothing else. First, we headed to Oriental Cravings to get myself lunch cos everyone has eaten except me. I drop hubby off in Subang and was supposed to meet my parents at 2pm but only arrived at 3.40pm. Knowing me so well, they couldn't wait they ate without me. Anyway, back to lunch. I had a bowl of claypot loh shee fun and a bowl of tong sui while mom looks after Jacob.

After lunch, we were supposed to go straight to Baby GAP on the 2nd Floor and get his stuff but as usual, I detoured. I found myself in ZARA instead, supposedly looking for clothes meant Jacob. Again, I was side tracked. I found myself looking for summer dresses and only after while I remembered my initial intention of going into ZARA.

I scanned through the ZARA kids clothes and decided that the quality of their clothes is bad; the collar of the t-shirt is small and the material too thin. Price range between RM29 to RM59, affordable. Didn't find anything suitable so we left. And guess where I was headed to? Not Baby GAP. I ended up in Dorothy Perkins next, followed by TOP Shop and PROMOD, looking for a nice casual dress. I finaly found not only one but two casual dresses from PROMOD and my intention was to only get one piece. Being the indecisive ol me, I asked mom and sis for their opinion and both suggested on the black dress. They liked the blue dress as well but thought the black was nicer. I was in the store for about 45 minutes trying to decide on the two. Alas, unable to decide, I paid for two. I really suck at deciding in the area of shopping.

Happy and guilty at same time, I gingerly walked towards the escalator leading to 2nd Floor. Before I came out of the store, I told mom that Jacob's stuff will have to wait. My guilt was setting in and I felt so bad for spluring on two dresses instead of one. Anyway, we drop by Baby GAP and looked at some boys' clothes but left empty handed. Again, I was stroke by guilt for not getting Jacob anything.
