Today's fun thing to do for counting down to Christmas is...
studying!! woo-hoo! gotta prepare for the next semester!
JUST KIDDING!!!
there's no way I could make myself pull out a textbook.
Though I think this holiday season is the best time to enjoy some books :D
I planned to place holds for books online, so I could pick them up when they arrive at the library.
But then I found out my library card has expired and I had to visit the library to re-activate it.
(don't you think life's always playing pranks on you in this way?
whenever you don't need Something, you keep seeing that Something laying around with no use; and whenever you need It, It either misteriously disappears or It somehow can't be used, i.e. my card has expired in this case) Come on!! No kidding please .\/.
Anyways, decided to pick up some novels from the library...(I have to do things right away whenever I feel like doing them, if I don't, I lose the motivation/interest very soon :S !)
Now is when I'm mad at myself for not practising driving before my aunt left .\/.
It should take 5 mins to drive there ._.
but now, I spent FOREVER waiting for the bus.
*ended up walking there (took 40 mins -v-), it's a good walk though.
I watched Elle's (one of my favourite youtubers ^^) glitterature series on Youtube before heading out to the library, she recommands books in that series. And I planned to borrow novels that she likes, since time is limited plus I read REAL SLOW (one of my weaknesses + one of the obstacles of studying efficiently :S fml). So it isn't a good idea to pick out books randomly.
I had a glimpse of the "Recommanded books" shelf, and immediately spotted out 5-6 books that Elle reviewed on!!! Perfect!
Didn't have to search for them (today's a luck day!) :D
then I went looking for some Disney movies, but didn't find any that interested me :/ (maybe I've finally grown up -v-.. no longer that passionate about cartoons... while a few months ago, I used to borrow a pile of Disney DVDs everytime I came to this library lol)
Later I realized that the novels I found are the 2nd books from the series, and I might not wanna read them without reading the previous books :/
(maybe I'm not that lucky today!)
Ended up borrowing:
There were so many more books I wanna read! but they're super heavy to carry home, and I won't be able to finish reading them anyways`
After that, I got into a drug-store nearby (biggest mistake of the day! lol)...
Warning: Mom & Dad if you are reading this, you might wanna stop right here lol

(Are my parents gone? lol alright...)
Came out with a bagful of goodies :S
OK, I didn't go out-of-control. Was totally exaggerating.
I got little stuffs like cotton pads, nail polish remover... because they're on sale -.-
WHY SO MANY ITEMS ON SALE???
Blame on them!!
they shouldn't be on sale whenever I get into the store! lol
Everytime I decide whether or not I should buy something (with the majority being beauty products ._.)
I tell myself that I could give them to friends as little gifts/souvenirs, and this makes me feel less guilty (ultimate shopping excuse lol)
For example, I just got 2 nail polishes...
(have been wanting that rosy color for quite a long time >3<!)
I thought that I could share them with my sister! ...maybe she won't appreciate them that much due to her tomboyness lol although she claims that she's very girlish now.
(P/S the bottles have my babe's name on them <3)
What I'm MOST excited about...
are these cuties!!
OMGBBQWTH!!!
I finally found EOS lip balms in Canada!!
I've been looking for them everywhere! for more than a year!
and this drug store has them!!!
At first, I saw the standard EOS lip balms, and I was already super excited, but ended up telling myself that I already got two new lip balms the other day, so I shouldn't be getting one (took a while to persuade myself lol)
But right before I was set and about to pay, I saw this ALICE IN WONDERLAND set! It's the limited edition!
ARE YOU CEREAL!?!
I basically gravitate towards ANYTHING related to Disney
(okay, maybe today's really my lucky day lol)
And and and... the packaging's so adorable, with tiny "Alice"s printed on it *v*
soooo pretty!
So I told myself (as always), if I got it, I could give two lip balms to friends, and one for myself :)
My logic: I buy one thing, more than one people will be happy!
So I bought it. -_-
Oh... actually should I go back another day to buy a few more sets of this for my beloved HK friends as souvenirs?
I think I should... :P
Still very excited. Can't believe I just found EOS lip balms. OMGGGGG!!
Got some sushi for dinner :) I miss you salmon... >3<
Didn't walk home because those books were too heavy! I'd die if I did walk home lol
Got on a bus, and the driver said I didn't have to pay lol
(due to some technical problems with a bus, all passangers had to get off and move to another bus... as compensation, we didn't have to pay for that ride ^0^ ho!ho!ho! lucky day!)
I guess I'll be having sushi + enjoying the books tonight :)
such a lovely day! thank God! I'm a lucky girl:3
P/S:
found an oversized Christmas-y PJ in the closet :)
P/S/2: skipped lunch today, was so occupied throughout the afternoon, didn't even feel hungry :)
