Overspent

OMG!!! I blew it for the month of September, thanks to the extra credits. A bit of my hobby during the start of the month thanks to someone recommending me Bookdepository.com. This is the only order I checked out from the numerous "Add to Basket". This is the most anticipated of all in the basket.

Next is the fast sold-out or climbing price for flight ticket to Hong Kong for Christmas. I had to scrunch for 2 for my little sister and myself. Not forgetting the hotel reservation.

Last but not least is the launch of iPhone 5 which I've waited for a year. Got punked the year before with 4S and thank god I didn't get it.

A big hole in the pocket but one happy soul. Now I have scrunch my daily expenses till the next payday. Time for a stay-home-son mode. LOL...

Avengers Assemble!!!

I was really impressed with the quality of Bluray after my Star Wars series. With the sharp and fine picture quality, I wanted to get another worthy film on Bluray. The best movie to get is basically Marvel's The Avengers. Firstly, it's by Joss Whedon alas the whole movie is pretty much awesome with great scenes and graphics. A true comic fan boy!

I so going to get the Transformers Trilogy as well and Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy. Also after watching the Avengers, I urged to assemble all the past Avengers movie tie-in.

Aidilfitri Spoils

It has been weeks since I shopped but was too busy to upload the spoils for the festive seasons. I've finally managed to unpack them on the very day since I don't go out.

Not much as I can't find anything in favor

Uniqlo Berms

The berms are inappropriate for Hari Raya but I'm running low on bermudas and of all the shop I've been to, only Uniqlo's caught my eye.

DKNY Jeans Polo

I wanted to grab a Polo shirt from DKNY but my size was unavailable and other stores does not carry them as well. Went over to DKNY Jeans and found something similar and I just blindly bought it. Still happy but my siblings are not.

H&M Shirt

I needed another short sleeve top but saw a gray shirt that looks good with the sleeve folded. Again, there wasn't any size available and found the only size available in white instead. Again I just grabbed it.

I'm actually thrilled that I can fit in size M due to the Ramadan month. Now I have to maintain this size throughout to please myself and my doctor.

A Newly Revised Hobby - Reading

As I'm slowly selling off my comics and toys away, something else is creeping into the empty spaces. Not that I'm worried but truly thrilled. It's a psychological mindset that I got to know. Having more books can actually make a man wise. Then again, that depend on the books one owns.

I've been reading a handful of non-fiction books ranging mostly on psychology and a bit of philosophy. I do still read a bit of fiction but I rather have it over the screen rather than paperbacks, and definitely comics but only electronically on my iPad.

My latest interest is taking up new languages but noticed that I'm still rusty at it. I've gotten another set of language books from clearing my CitiPoints which will be expiring soon. Time to strengthen my Korean and relearn my Japanese. Hopefully I don't get to mix them up.

Conversion-Rate was to be blamed

I had a quick getaway to Kuala Lumpur during my company's 1 day shutdown. It's meant for a glutton trip before the Ramadan month starts the week after and told myself not to shop. I did however had the intention to search for shows by the late Yasmin Ahmad.

 

 

Here comes the blame game. Due to great conversion rate, I had an amazing time at Kinokuniya Malaysia. The prices were better or almost the same as Kinokuniya's member's sale in Singapore. Though I had to limit myself, actually there were more and I was carrying a basket. I had to think of the weight of my messenger bag that I'll be carrying.

 

 

Someone ask to get this using my member's card and since it's the same price, I got it there instead

Still itching to shop, I've found something that I needed to change. The price in Singapore was unbelievable and the price I got in KL was impossible. Now, I have a matching trunks and goggle. Love 'em!

NYC Goodies

My God Brother had decided take up a sabbatical and stay in NYC for a month. Of course, we knew that certain US products are cheaper there. So I've joined the list of friends with a list of shopping needs.

A must to get when I know anyone that's going to the States. I went overboard by asking to get 5 packs

(3 packs opened to save space)

I needed to test out the Blu-Ray system on my PS3 and the discs in Singapore cost a bomb for a piece. Initially wanted to get a cheaper set but he mentioned that it's USD 99 which is actually cheaper than Singapore. A must for a Star Wars Fan

A souvenir from his Lego Store visit. Maybe to complete the Star Wars frenzy.

The is a totally unexpected souvenir. My jaw dropped when I opened the box and check it out. May not be a leather wallet that I wanted but I'm not complaining for a Gucci Tri-Fold.

His transit via Delta was to Narita. So I've asked to get Tokyo Banana if possible and he got me 3 packs with a Baumkuchen in tow. Awesome!!!

From Seller to Buyer

With the growing sales of Rydikulez Collections, I've been busy going around sending orders over weekends or days that I'm free. Mostly were kind enough to meet in the central but I had one in the west. I didn't mind the travel as I loved to explore. This time it brought me to Clementi. The place got hipper with the new Clementi Mall.

After the transaction, I explored the new Clementi central with no intention of shopping. Alas I was wrong. I managed to find the Kinect UFC Trainer that I've been searching aimlessly locally and overseas. On the hind side, it was at 50% off, so I succumb to getting it and no, my sale proceed didn't went to the purchase, I used my other resources.

At least now, I have an updated Kinect workout. The old Shape Your Body was getting monotonous.
