Its the Mega Sale season and I for one shud be the most excited person since I so love shopping..Yesterday I was informed by my colleague there that would be a 3 hour sale at KLCC with additional discounts given on top of the existing one..The old me would jump in joy and grab the opportunity to rush to KLCC along with the other shopping addicts..But since I’m cutting down on my expenses, tho I find it actually very hard coz when I plan on buying something, I end up not buying anything and when I actually go browsing around in the mall and not plan to buy anything, it is at that point of time that I’d shop like crazy, haha..Talk about being in control of myself, I’m a loser at it when it comes to shopping..Now, what I do is avoid any shopping areas unless its really necessary for me to be around it..And if I really feel like going window shopping, I’d bring my sister along coz she helps me from shopping aimlessly, considering the fact that in her opinion, my closet is full of clothes that I havent even wore yet..haha..Luckily, i’m not in the Rebecca Bloomwood stage yet..Or else I, myself would consider me crazy, running away from debts and all, haha..
This past few weeks I’ve been so lazy to jot down something in my blog..Have been filling my time going to the gym and rushing back home straight after that to catch the Philippines series, Ikaw Ang Lahat Sa Akin (In English it means You R everything to me)..Its entertaining to watch, a little bit of romance, humour and it also brings tears to my eyes..Its about a mother and daughter separated from their youngest daughter and sister when the father ran away to be with another woman, from a wealthy family..The rich lady also at first was supposed to marry another man from a wealthy family but opted to marry her driver, which was the father who ran away..Complicated huh??!The rich lady would do anything for the guy even to live in a hell hole, washing her own clothes and eating only rice and ‘ikan masin’..But since she was the only daughter of that wealthy family, in the end, her mother gave in and brought her back to live in luxury..And they took care of the guys daughter whom during her period of growing up, was always beaten up by the stepmother even only for the simplest mistakes..
Then its the love scene between this girl, who was taken away from her sister and mother, Daisy, whose name was changed to Jasmin for obvious reasons..Everyday, she’s being teased and made fool off by this guy named Oliver who actually had the hearts for her..Its true what they say, when a guy likes u, they tend to tease and make fool of u a lot..haha..And the scenes r so cute..At first she hated the guy but now she seems to have developed feelings for him that she herself has not realized..To make things more complicated, Olivers father is actually the rich guy her stepmother was supposed to marry in the first place..
A summary of the series I took from the website, it basically follows a story of love…Nea has not seen her sister, Jasmin for nearly a decade, since their father Larry took her and left Nea and her mother Elena for the wealthy Yolanda…It also follows the story of the Ynares clan, on how patriarch Roden and matriarch Susana deal with their sons, the intelligent, career-driven Ivan, who is engaged to Karri, a woman of acceptable social bearing, and the care free Oliver…It also follows on Oliver and Jasmin’s cats-and-dogs attitude on each other, on Ivan as he meets Nea, Yolanda’s maltreatment of Jasmin, and on how Nea’s sunny disposition in life will change forever…
What attracted me to follow the series is that its filled with all pretty and handsome faces such as Bea Alonzo, Shaina Magdayao, Angelica Cruz, Diether Ocampo and John Llyod…So guys, take a few minutes of your time to watch this series every Monday to Thursday in Astro Prima at 9pm to 10pm and reruns at 12.30 to 1.30 am..I guarantee u, u wont regret it..

Hehe..My routine now is to only enter shops that have huge reductions like 70% but i think I can already control my bad spending habit a bit..
