The shopping's almost done!

This afternoon (after my previous entry), I went to get a suit tailored for myself using the money my aunt gave me. The suit cost $750 (originally $850) from Justmen, which is slightly expensive, but the material is suited for colder climates and is a much better fit (because it's tailored) than any off-the-rack suit. It even includes some provisions for "expansion" ^^;;; And it should be ready by Wednesday morning~

After that, I finally bought a good laptop bag; not branded like Eminent or Samsonite, or even Targus, but the BHPC (Beverly Hills Polo Club) which is the same brand as my suitcase too brand for $78 (originally $89) at Sim Lim. It was quite interesting at the shop I went to because the person there recognized me from when I'd gone there 3 weeks earlier with my cousin and we had quite a friendly conversation while I bought the bag and afterwards as well. :) The funny thing though is that when I'd gone to that shop last week to look at suitcases, I'd got a completely different reaction from the person there that day that put me off the shop. I suppose the fact that I was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and shoes probably made a difference. :P

And... Things are going to be really busy this weekend, possibly including some violent unexpected surprises. ^^;;

Next time you say you don't believe dressing up properly makes a difference - it does. You do look a lot better when you're dressed and shaved properly, you know. And I know I sound like I'm buying into the marketing crap, but it does do wonders to your self-confidence in some situations. Clothes aren't everything of course; but sometimes if you wonder why you're a good person and you think well and you're great inside but you have a lot of problems with people in life... its these sort of things.


Also, you obviously need way, way, way, way more cats in your journal. 17 uses of "cats" = phail.

I hate dressing up, especially if I'm going to the neighborhood grocery store or fast food restaurant directly from home, and not directly from work. I'm sure there's a difference in people's impressions of me. Somehow. Yeah. But who wants to dress up in something other than slacks and T-shirt if one's just going out to get food? ...
