Here’s a supposedly typical queueing scene in Beijing, China. From the photo, the queue seem to be queueing up for train tickets. Just look at them hugging each other! I don’t even remember the Chinese ever being so friendly towards their comrades!

At least you will know that you will never get a chance in jumping queue unlike the lurking aunties and uncles in Singapore who cut straight in when you aren’t looking. Just looking at them leaning in the same direction makes it so funny!

Apparently, it is not only the common scene in Beijing but also, in other cities like SiZhuan as well. It’s is not going to be easy to jump queue in China, it seems.

Here’s the joke: In Beijing, a man complained that the queue in MTR caused his wife to have a miscarriage. Another man rebutted that it is no big deal because the queue in Shanghai made his wife pregnant!

If you’re very, very bored and wanna read some nonsense, this is my personal blog, where I can write one-liners, rubbish word and Francis can’t do anything about it!

I am so lazy to post any shopping entry in here… So please forgive me while I am in the mist of a work transition period. Here’s the highlight of my life so far: I quit my job and found another. I have a one week rest in between jobs, and I am aching to go overseas but I am unwilling to spend more than S$200 (airfare and accomodation) on any overseas trip. Cheapskate!!!

Oh yeah, before I forgot, Prettydolls and Your Dream Shop are having about 4 new sprees each! Do order from there!

The Levis Warehouse Sale is here again. The Sale is from 6th to the 9th of March 2008. I chanced upon it yesterday when I was in the area. Located at their main office building at:

Jay Gee House, 10 Genting Lane (S) 349583.

Time: I forgot to take note, but based on previous Levis warehouse sales, it should be from 10am to about 5pm.

Click for the MAP.

Note: You have to deposit your bags at the front of the building, so please try to bring just your wallet.

Other worthy mentions:

BYSI is having up to 70% off on their merchandise! I bought one beige skirt and one brown shirt for a total of only S$37++! Forntieer is also having a 70% sale (I was in Citylink Mall, and these two brands were located side by side). I love the while tunic on display on the mannequin, but it’s very baggy at the side of the chest area (the sales lady tells me it’s the cutting). Alteration is possible at S$6, which I feel is reasonable. Forntieer is located at #B1-35 (Tel : 6341 9887)

I went over to Bugis Junction and I noticed that this shop called Moon River was having some major sales as well! Previously, I was put off by their prices of S$30-S%50 for some items that don’t look like they were worth those prices, but now, their prices for all their items in the shop goes like this:

Top – $15. Bottoms – S$20. Dress – S$20. Handbags – S$15.

The bottoms are a steal if you’re looking for smart casual. Moon River is located at #02-40 Bugis Junction. Please call for any enquiries 63363380.

I wanna get a LVER item! But they are still so expensive after their storewide 50% discount. Sad!

Here’s a hot piece of news for Balenciaga lovers in Singapore. There’s quite a large range of Balenciaga wallets that are going for 50% discount at the following counters as of today.

Do visit these counters as soon as you can, as Balenciaga handbags and wallets will not be sold in Singapore departmental stores after June 2008. This is because this international brand will be focusing on their sales boutiques and thus taking back all licensee rights, which means Balenciaga will not be as affordable as before!

(Those Balenciaga handbags and wallets in departmental stores are distributed by the licensee. The items sold in Balenciaga boutiques are much, much higher because the items are shipped from their main office)

The Balenciaga counters are:

Takashimaya, Tangs at Vivo City, Tangs Orchard, Isetan Scotts, Metro Paragon, BHG Bugis Junction, BHG Bishan Junction 8, BHG Tampines (in Century Square), OG Albert (near Bugis Junction), OG People’s Park, OG Orchard Point and Robinsons Centrepoint!

Also on 50% discount are selected leather handbags. Do visit these counters! If you don’t buy now, you might not have a chance to do so as stocks are limited! No more repeat orders! Everything has to go by end June 2008!

Fox is at it again. It seems as if they are quite into this thing of having online vouchers and promotions through online advertising. Head over to Fox Fashion to print the voucher now! It is valid from 5 March 2008 until 16 March 2008. Exchange the voucher for a Limited Edition $10 Fox Gift Card. The only condition is that the exchange is only limited to 100. So get moving now!
