Wow... what a Saturday! I don't think I've personally had a Saturday like this in such a long LONG while! It's one of the rarest days where you make yourself a high priority. With everything that is going around, it was about time that I got to spoil myself a little bit. And there is nothing better in my books, to spoil yourself by sleeping in. I didn't get up until 11am, and I probably could have stayed in bed a lot longer.
When I got out of bed, I made myself a cup of coffee and drank it outside while I enjoyed the sunshine. I also read a book while I was enjoying my coffee, and before I knew it an hour had passed and it was already after lunch. So I had a shower and got ready and then remembered I wanted to get a facial done today and had forgotten to make an appointment. So I quickly called up to make an appointment, but unfortunately it was all booked up and I couldn't get my facial done. Not letting that burst my spirits, I still headed off to the shops via bus and take my sweet time.
When I arrived at the shops I had passed by one of those chemists which sells a whole bunch of perfume, so I quickly had a browse to see how much they were selling the perfume "Tommy Girl." I had tested it within Woolworths in the city and it smelled pretty good. But Woolworths in the city was selling it for about $80.00 and I didn't really feel like spending that much in the city. This chemist though, was selling the same perfume with the same amount of mls for only $30.00. Which really annoyed me that a brand like Woolworths could up their price by so much. Isn't there any honest companies anymore? Just seeing the price difference annoyed me and put me off from buying Tommy Girl altogether.
I made a quick stop at Priceline where I ended up being an Elizabeth Taylor perfume and also Panache which is a perfume I always did like to use, and it had been a while since I did buy a bottle. I also bought a small packet of face mask. I figured I may as well do the facial myself and at home where I didn't have to spend a lot of money, or answer a whole series of questions which I really wasn't up to answering anyways. I then headed towards Target as I needed to buy some gum boots and I had been told that Target had a large range of them for sale. Which was completely true! They had a very large range, so much so that I wasn't sure which one I should end up buying. In the end I decided to be a little dangerous and ended up buying some red gumboots.
Later on I decided to spoil myself a little more and bought myself a blue handbag. It seemed to be one of those days where I was deciding to be a little more strange that I normally am. The odd thing is too (and maybe it was the girly girl inside of me wanting to branch out) I ended up buying a Mills and Boon book for a bit of reading. Embarrassing I know! You know how many years it has been since I've read one of these things? A LOT! In hindsight I think I needed one of those girly days which I'm hoping many women like to do occasionally. If I could think of a romance movie to watch, I may have ended up watching a romance movie. Unfortunately I couldn't think of one, or couldn't think of the idea at the time, and just stuck with the romance novel.
I then headed off home, and ending up putting on my pj's with my newly bought facial mask, sitting in front of the TV watching a show which I had discovered early in the day called 'Big Fat Quiz of the Year.' It's hosted by Jimmy Carr and it happens once in the year at the end of the year. And it basically about questions about what had happened throughout the year, while also being very funny! Once the show was over I had a shower and washed my hair and got deeply engrossed into the Mills and Boom book until about... ohhh 4 am in the morning! Yes... I'm slightly nuts!... But only slightly!
