so i went out shopping involuntarely. my ex likes fancy chocolates so i went to Neuhaus to buy some. it's an expensive chocolate boutique, belgian i assume. this bald jewish looking middle-aged guy has been running it since it arrived here. he had an asian girl helping him. picking those fancy chocolates one by one in little boxes and stuff is slow, so there we were, 6 or 8 customers, standing quiet, and those two packing the chocolates, in silence. and then a baby starts crying in the back room. i think it made all of us slightly uncomfortable, because it wouldn't stop. finally it came my turn and i made my order. he started preparing the box of chocolates and then turned to me and shyly asked me if i could rock the craddle a bit. i smiled and walked into the back room. there was a really tiny, maybe 1 to 3 weeks old baby in one of those baby-carrying things, on the table. i tried to sway it, and she calmed down. but then started crying again, louder. when i gave her my finger to hold on to, she seemed comforted again. for a while. after which she started a really unhappy cry and i was miserable because i didn't want to leave her crying there, with the shop full of customers. then, i was a genius and gave her the side of my finger to suck on. a couple minutes of my index finger, and she just fell asleep, like a baby, literally :P i then returned to the store, where my box of chocolates had been waiting for me. i gave my bank card and when he charged me, i saw him quietly give me a 20% discount. against my traits, i smiled, wished him a merry christmas and left. i felt like a hero.
anyway i then went to Stockmann and got my hair dye as planned. Dior's counter is on the way there and i asked if they now had Pure Poison Elixir in stock, on thursday when i was going to get it, they were out. well they did, and i got it. so now i have 2 new parfums. (the one i got 3 weeks ago is old already). yes i know you're supposed to have the period INSIDE the brackets but see do i care???111 never did. on thursday, when i was turned down from getting Dior, i walked around and saw Dolce & Gabbana's The One, the ad and the name caught my eye and i tried it on my wrist. i kept walking around and fell in love with it. i don't think i've ever bought a parfum so impulsively. but i knew i had to get Dior as well, i have been using Pure Poison on and off and have almost run out of it. i think it's the first parfum i've ever ran out of? Elixir is very similar to the original, but only deeper and more sinful version :D
The One's ad which pleased me is here. their previous fragrance caught my attention too, Monica Bellucci advertizing Sicily. however that was not meant for me, unfortunately.
i got my mom these really soft slippers from canada, and some ultra soft socks, and then today i also got a Clinique lipstick, a light shimmering pink. Clinique was always one of her fav brands.
for my ex, besides the chocolates, i got some clothes and latest issue of Wired magazine. those should keep him happy for a few days. which reminds me, its his b-day in like a week :S
i should really watcha movie! i mean really! wtf, i haven't seen any in days! in a week! last night i watched mixed martial arts videos when i could've been watching a movie.
