Bonus

Swee lah.. "Bonus" came in.. My mum received a bonus, so i also received a "bonus" from her.. Heng ah, i almost gonna $90 for 3 weeks again.. I think my mum's bonus is either quite insanely huge or she went on a insane spending spree.

Last sat, i went out wif my family for lunch thus missing the usual sat soccer.. But it was not in vain as i ate a wonderful Japanese restaurant at Great World City, called Ichiban.. Really not bad, not like the sakae sushi kind, but not until over the top also, but the word to use would probably be premium. Then my mum set her mind on a Prada bag.. So off we went to Orchard ION..

As you all already know, ION is a class-cist.. They rank their shops by class.. If you are the average Singaporean, you would loiter around the basement.. Topman, Uniqolo shops to name a few.. Then a level higher would include Christain Audiger/Armani Exchange.. Then another level higher you would have your Yves Saint Lauren.. By this floor you can see the difference in crowd already, not just in quantity, but in quality. Something about rich people, they just look different from a normal crowd, maybe it's their dress sense, maybe it's their unlimited facial products they use or the effects of using Lamer everyday.. I dunno, but they look a little different.. Maybe they would be a 5/10 in a different class, but now that they are rich, they look probably a 6-7/10.. No joke..

Carrying on, i went a level higher, and that's where the Louis Vutton/Prada is..
You know when you know you enter a high class shop when they have people in suits opening doors for you and not just a door greeter in T shirt and jeans..
You know when you enter a high class shop when crowd is controlled even though there may not be much people in the shop and not every Tom/Mary can enter as and when they like.
You know when you enter a high class shop when there are service crews offering you champagne as you browse and not just people asking how can I help you..

My sis was in awe of the experience, but i still maintain my poker face and ask her dun throw face leh.. Must act like you've been here alot of times and it's nothing new to you.. Must also look at price tags and exclaim audibly, "wa, quite cheap what!".. Haha..

In de end my mum bought a $2k prada bag.. She asked me to choose something from the shop.. WAHAHAHHA.. But I'm not those kinda idiot that will save up $5k, live like a dog, just to carry a prada bag, so I did what a wise man does, ask for the money instead.. hahaha.. In the end, God is still good, cos i found a pretty decent wallet online at half price.. Ted Baker.. Okay what! Plus i have much more money to buy other stuff as well.. hahaha.. Niceeeee..

And I just wanna emphasize something.. People really will only listen what they wanna listen or see what they wanna see and do what they wanna do.. If someone said a particular something to you, it may not enter your thick skull and be processed. But suddenly, another person says the similar thing, and then you think, eh true ah.. IT HAPPENS..

I dunno what to say or even react to this kinda of situation.. Give the "WTF ISNT THAT WHAT I SAID" face? Or just acknowledge the other person's "brilliance" in being the only person who can think of that? Seriously..
