My Mall Adventure

Entrance to the Alrashid Mall

Mainit sa labas. Kaya nagmadali akong makapasok.

Wala pang masiyadong tao,

kaya siyempre mag picture muna.

The Food Court. Daming Saudi dito.
Friday noontime and the Foodcourt is open and full of people.
This would have been a rare sight in Riyadh
where people sleep till afternoon.

A group waiting for their order.

Nakabili na ako ng minimithing bag dito.

Nahiya ako kasi super asikaso ang mga Salesman

While waiting for Zara to open,

I sat in Starbucks and nag picture – siyempre

Tagal mag open ng ibang shops

Walang kamatayang Java Chip Frapuuccino

Newspaper of the day

Stick of Marlboro

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

May awa ang Diyos.

Shopping na naman sa Zara

Like ko ito.

Sana Sale dito palagi nang makabili naman ako.

I Love This !!!

Kaya lang New Collection
Mahal siya.

Sayang

One of the quiet places in the mall.

Sale din sila?

Aba. Aba. Aba.

Kailangan ba sabay sabay?

Ayaw ko dito.

Baka magmukha akong muchacha

Hahahahaha. Natawa ako, sana kayo din.

Are you waiting for me?

Uwi na ako.

Sakit na paa ko.

I was supposed to do my laundry yesterday. But for the first time since I came to Alkhobar. Our building has no water.

So I cancelled the laundry, and went to the mall.

Friday was Wash Day

Woke up late yesterday, after my first cup of coffee and a cigarette. I planned on how I was going to spend my day off from work. My duvet cover needed washing, my bedsheet also needed washing, and clothes hamper was starting to fill up. I was delaying and delaying, but I guess there was no other better day to do it, the sun was shinning so I loaded the washer with my first load. While the washer was doing its job, I decided to tidy up a little in my room as well instead of just gluing my eyes to the telly watching the non-ending Anna Nicole updates. Hey I found my long lost friend – my tweezers Yay !!! (okay my eyebrows are not naturally sculpted now you know). Found my City Plaza Privilege Card as well, and cleaned out some garbage from under my bed. I was envious that I was cleaning, washing and doing domestic duties while some friends were enjoying themselves in Bahrain. This inggitero moment was brought to you by Chris Cafuir.

After washing, drying, vacuuming, dusting, and laying out my wet clothes to dry under the sun. I was finished. I took a shower and headed out for some grocery shopping. I needed foodstuffs and other stuff as well so i headed off to the nearest grocery store.

Since it was a Friday, and the weekend after salary it was so i expected that there were a lot of shoppers and i was not mistaken, the store was packed with shoppers. I always shop with my grocery list on my head so I ended up buying those I remembered that I needed and forgetting things again. Typical me, I forgot to buy rice. But I didnt forget to buy lotion hahahahaha. Analyze that.

I dropped off my groceries at home and decided that a quick look at the Brands for Less store wouldnt hurt. Bestfriend sent a text message and I suggested that we meet there. We scanned the Calvin Kleins, the D&Gs, the Armanis, and the Zegnas but none fell on our category of a good buy. Most were on 80% discount and we didnt feel that it was worth our money till its on 90% discount then we would go on panic mode. We left the shop and went somewhere else to go check some shoes, (just the thought of buying shoes makes me tingly inside) so off we went. I really dont take much time when buying things, I dont fit clothes, I do fit shoes but I dont really take that much time. Well Bestfriend and I found some cute shoes which were cheap compared to other brands so I thought I’d buy 3 pairs. Hey I desserve it since I left most of my shoes back home and God knows when Im buying next? And besides they were just cheap shoes. Why am I defending myself? Hahahahaha. Guilty pleasure.

Some friends called us and invited us to another mall, so I just asked them to pick us up instead of driving in separate cars, it would be better if we rode in one car. So off we went and found a nice bag in Kappa, which I bought again.

I thought Friday was Wash Day, instead Friday was Shopping Day.

Special thanks to Visa, for without it, none of this would have been possible. Hehehehehe
