Recession & Retail Therapy
POSTED ON Friday, March 20, 2009 AT 12:44 PM \\
My current obsession? Recession. Talk to me, or hang out with me for half a day & u'll find that word being mentioned like once every half hour. Hur hur. But it is true that everything has been affected by the economy downtown these days what. Talk abt events/jobs? It's been affected by recession & companies r cutting down on their budget for showgirls. See sales everywhere when u go shopping? It's their way of enticing ppl to buy their stuff. I'm all for shopping & spending during this recession period, since there r plenty of bargains & i see it as my way of boosting the economy.
Went shopping with Xiaowei yesterday after our job ended since we were paid in cash & both of us were feeling pretty 'rich' haha. Bought a pair of casual wedges, cute denim shorts & an off-shoulder top. We couldn't buy alot of stuff cuz it was getting late & all the shops were closing-_-" I also bought comfy cotton shorts from Topshop! Gonna either lounge in them @ home or wear them for jogging which is something i haven't been doing. No wonder i'm gaining weight. Bah.
Also did the IT show last week. Due to the recession(ahem!), the availability of jobs & our rates have been reduced so even though the pay ain't great, i'm telling myself not to be too picky & just make do with what's minimally acceptable. It was for this company called 'Powerpro' which sells this thing called a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)...not exactly very interesting since most ppl visit IT shows to buy laptops and LCD monitors etc. I was super tired by the 3rd & last day, can't be helped cuz it was a minimum of 10 hours work each day & without a proper break cuz the client wanted us to get back to work once we eat up our food in like 10mins.

Our cheesy tagline. And we have to take turns holding the board somemore!Duh.
The coming week will be some R&R time, & hopefully a chance for me to catch 'Confessions of a Shopaholic'! I can probably totally identify with the movie=P
