shopping starts before the trip...

Haven't updated the blog for a few days... ok... been too busy at work is a lousy excuse, but hey... at least i am still updating my blog now!

Just to keep things simple and short (because i am so tired!)... went for a short shopping trip to IMM this evening... Basically I went all the way there to get some items for the upcoming France and Spain trip. You must be thinking: "what the hell does she need to get from IMM?"

Well, a tip for travellers: Daiso (the $2 shop that sells all sorts of items ranging from food, households to make-up etc) sells those vaccum bags that look like Ziploc bags, in many sizes! These bags are a must for all travel trips! Simply packed your clothes into the bags, seal it up then flatten by either sitting on the bag or using a vaccum cleaner to release all the air. This action will reduced the space by 2/3! Especially important if you need lots of luggage space for shopping overseas!!! Of course, these bags are available in many places like Winter Time or shopping malls. However, Daiso's price is only 25% - 30% of other retailers!

Also managed to buy heat packs (just in case it gets too cold in Paris!) and a pair of leather gloves (these are so cool!)...

Of course, I walked around the new wing of IMM too. Realised there are many more eateries around. Finally decided to try Pepper Lunch for the first time (yes... remember I said I was a laggard in my first post? This further confirms it!) I must say the food is quite yummy, though I almost forgot to cook my beansprouts/vege!

I am so full now... but got to sleep as I will be waking up early tomorrow... I promise there will be more post leading to my long-awaited trip!

Now its time to say... Zzz Zzz Zzz
