Buy things base soley on the limited information available in the store and presumably unreliable sales is just plain dumb.  Anyways, tonight after dinner, I went to Metrotown with Pat.  I have bought some new clothings.  I think the last time I had bought any clothes is almost a year ago.  The good thing about going to shopping with Pat is I can offload the decision making to her.  Obviously she had much better taste on clothes and know alot more on the market price range than me.  The only thing I need to decide is the total amount of money I am willing to spend in one shopping trip.  Although I am happy with the fact that I have new stuffs to wear, but I don&#8217;t really enjoy the process.  I wonder how can woman enjoy shopping?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I rarely go to shopping, I actually feel a bit uncomfortable going to the mall.
