incessant rants:

i need to buy shoes.
i need retail therapy for fuck's sake.

the project i'm working on now has much relevance to my life. i'm talking about cold hard cash, dough, dollar, dosh, moolah, moneyz.

you want it.
i want it.
everybody loves it.

you see that fat loser with a pair of retro aviator sunglasses. he's been saved by those glasses honey, beneath it all he's still fat and sweaty. money has the power to change how you look. invest in it.

invest in it today. don't deny it. it's a classic case of 'you can run but you can't hide.' don't run from it. embrace it, and then let it embrace you.

as i have.

i realised how politically incorrect i was being right there ^^^

The Court of All Things Sane and the Financially Stable vs Lauren Tan

At approximately 1245hrs on 30th of March 2004, the accused, Lauren Tan, received a call from a Chinese male, Daniel Foo, who informed her that mutual friend Khor Wei Jin, currently residing in Sydney, Australia had made purchases for two Japanese made pouches on their behalf. The accused agreed to the arrangement and then made plans with Foo to have lunch at a Burger King near where they lived.

During lunch, Khor called a second time around 1330hrs to announce that he had stumbled upon a shop that was selling Nike shoes (or 'dope kicks') for $50 AUD. Both the accused and Foo went on to cajole Khor into buying them each a pair of shoes. Khor would then later ship over the shoes along with the pouches.

Thereafter, in an attempt to "live it up", the accused found herself in the heart of the shopping district on a weekday despite an impending deadline. The accused claimed that she was merely accompanying Foo while he ran some errands about town. Whilst their day-out at the popular "cool" hangout spot Far East Plaza in downtown Orchard Road started out as a seemingly innocent affair, it soon proved to be the straw that broke the camel's back. At approximately 1545hrs, the accused purchased a new pair of vans and was said to have exclaimed several times "I MUST HAVE IT" in a maniacal fit to Foo and the shop owner, a man of slight build and beady eyes known around the building as Ah-Kiat.

This court hereby finds Lauren Tan to be guilty of two counts of overseas network shopping and one count of accidental shoe shopping.

Lauren Tan is a repeat offender and is currently serving her sentence of having to stand in the pit of knee high debt until all manner of debt is paid off.
