Topic: Shopping isn't my thing.
Now I remember why I really don't go shopping much, unless it's with people who have similar tastes as me. Today, I went to the city with a couple of mates and we went EVERYWHERE. Chinatown, MarketCity, George St, Pitt St, QVB etc. For me it was a full on window shopping day (everything was too expensive for all of us) I don't think I saw anything below $30 besides food, though when I asked my friends they told me it was barely a puff for them (makes me wonder what makes them puff-- and if your head was in the gutter, get it out!)
So we went to Max Brenner's chocolate café/shop, and I attempting once again to be healthy did not partake in the wolfing down of the melted chocolate on waffle. Though I must admit, after having a freeloader's lunch at a mate's pho restaurant I wasn't in the mood for sticky chocolate anyways. Though I did feel sorry for the couple sitting beside us, because my friends continued to stare shamelessly at the girl sitting beside me as well as whatever she was eating. If it wasn't so embarrassing, it would've made quite the story (with two girls sitting on my other side staring shamelessly to my table) as I continually called them a pack of hyenas and berating them (being the mean-assed friend I am). Being the uncrazed chocolate child of the table, I also proceeded to attempt to divert their attention, though to no avail. Thus I ended up pulling them from their seats and forcing them out of the shop.
After bumming around in more places, we finally went to Passion Flower and ate some ice-cream. And after eating both Gelato and Passion Flower green tea flavoured ice cream I can officially say, green tea ice cream is one of my favorite ice cream flavours. Though I did think it was quite unreasonable to pay an extra $2 just to sit in the ice cream shop, after all over half of the shop was empty anyways. Though my mates and I ended up sitting in this nice place where we consumed our ice creams and continued our merry way along.
So to sum it up, basically I spent $6 all up today, $4 for my yummy green tea ice cream, and $2 ($1.90) for a train ticket to central. I'm proud of myself.
