Hay Street again..

Murray Street

Its a nice place to shop or simply just walk around these 2 street which located back to back. In the middle of the street (either murray or hay..can't remember), there's this small fountain pond like pool where you can see alot of goths hangin' out there doing nothing and comparing who has a whiter face, who's cloak is blacker, who's lips are darker and stuff like that..

Goth:Goth is a modern subculture that first became popular during the early 1980s within the gothic rock scene, a sub-genre of post punk. It is associated with gothic tastes in music and clothing. Styles of dress range from gothic horror, punk, Victorian, fetish, cybergoth, androgyny, and/or lots of black. Since the mid-1990s, styles of music that can be heard in goth venues range from gothic rock, industrial, punk, metal, techno, 1980s dance music, and several others

For those who have no idea what a "goth" is...

Wow..this blog is educating...just fucking google it..

I'm not so much of a shopping guy..like..i dun walk around the mall for the sake of walking and window shopping..if there is something i wan..i will go straight to that store...look at it...feel it...try it (if neccessary) pay and ciau..and i don't look at the same rack of clothes for one hour and then decide to try one piece..and put it back and visit other racks and eventually goes back to the same rack..spend another hour looking at the clothes being hang there...try the same piece, only different size...and only to realise "oh fuck ..look...its ripped.."..."i dun buy ripped shirts." - proceed to the next rack with the same routine..but i have experienced it...and its horrible...IT WAS HELLLL..*sob sob...god..*..help me..*..*take me...just TAKE ME...!!*

Until today..i have this phobia call "shoporzhenia" - dun bother googled it...its a new sickness and its not in google yet..trust me..it is like if i spend more than 3 minutes on a single rack of clothes..i will have allergies..

5 mins: high fever
10 mins: coughing blood
12 mins: need medical attention
15 mins: puke
20 mins: still puking
30 mins: still puking
50 mins: look...if u puke non-stop for like frigging 15 mins...its better off just kill urself..
1 hour 15 mins: proceed to funeral parlour..

going shopping with #3 was HELL..yes..ask Housemate No 1 and 2..

Like i said...she has no aim of what she wanted to buy..and she can spend really really fucking long in one shop and at one rack...oh my fucking god...pick your trampy clothes and get on with it already...

#3: dear..nice or not *showing a top with a women face printed on it..*
me: nice..
#3: this one?..*the same top only with the women face printed facing the opposite direction*
me: nice..
#3: this one?..*the same top only its sleeveless
me: nice..
#3: this one?..*the same top only its sleeves has one side longer than the other..*
me: nice..
#3: all also nice then i buy all lar...
me: nice...
#3: oh..i drop my lipstick..
me: nice...
#3: on second thought..i think i will come back later for it..
me: nice..
#3: dear are u ok?
me: nice...
#3: * went off to the next rack of clothes after 2 hours and still in the same store..
me: *have been sitting on the same couch for the last 2 hours..*

Promoter: sir..are u alright..
me: nice..
Promoter: u mean my boobs??..
me: nice..
Promoter: sir...ur eyes are bleeding..and ur nose too..
me: nice..

Seriously...if you wanna shop..c'mon..we shop from store to store..not from fucking rack to rack at the same fucking store for fucking 2 hours looking at the same RACK??..its unbearable

i remember once when i was in Romp with #3..as usual..there's things she wants to buy but dunno what...* oh my god..someone just kill me pls??...anyone..??..*

This time...its something new...she go round and round and round and round the whole fucking store and comes back to the very first rack...

I swear to god, during that time..i was like "Ngor Chow Lei Sei Lar....Ham Kar Channn.." - translation..." i am going to die...whole family shovel". Since its so suffering..then why follow??? well..that's a good question...until now..i can;t explain why..guess i was dumb that time..and maybe because there's this underground toy shop that i've been looking forward to visit every week or every city visit..

A few store that is a must for me to visit (BY MYSELF) are JB Hi Fi, Toys R' Us, Joint Venture, the funny t-shirt store and this underground toy shop which i do not know what it is called...

JB Hi Fi: An undergroud (it is located underground - and not "underground" kinda underground..you dig?..) record store which has great stuff - CDs, DVDs, Box Sets, Bla bla bla..normal record store like the one we have here in Malaysia except that the locals CDs went through some cencorship of vulgarity on the album so..whenever there's fuck suck duck puck kuck luck nuck muck huck guck ruck wuck.....quck...on it...it will be erased..so the good thing about overseas record store is that they do not censored all these stuff but simply sticking a "Parental Advisory - Explicit lyrics" label there - which no one really gives a fuck... but some set back is that, the album that you buy in Australia might not be the same version as the original...ok..for example..I bought a Marilyn Manson CD which has like 18 tracks..last 3 tracks happens to be a bonus track..this is the original release..but if u buy the same album in Australia, you might get only 2 bonus track, thus this is called "Australia cut".

Joint Venture: this place is fucking awesome..i dunno what "genre" of this store is..coz it sell lots of stuff like rock t-shirts (hell yea!!!...)..some bong memorabilia..some..wait..that's it..yea..and its cool...

For you nerds and freaks out there...here's another piece of "education" for ya..

Bong: A water pipe or bong is a device used for smoking, usually cannabis (and less frequently tobacco or other substances), in which smoke is bubbled through a chamber containing water. Apocryphal history suggests the term "bong" returned to the U.S. with troops who had served in Vietnam, as a corruption of the Thai word baung, which refers to a hollow pipe or tube.

Give it a try and you'll never go nerd again...chiqs will dig ya...and show their boobies to ya..
Just go to any burger stall that you can find at the road side and ask the fella..

"Bang..bang...ada "baal" ar??..if get whack...then the answer is obvious "No..we do not have cannabis"
Baal: a lingo for cannabis... and that's weed...pot...crack...

Toys R' Us: hey...don't expect something great written here about Toys R' us ok??..Just visit the nearest Toys R' Us..and there u have it..ok..ok...fine..this is the best i can do ok?..

Toys "R" Us is a toy store chain based in the United States. It also operates in other countries, with around 1,500 stores world wide. The Toys "R" Us chain was founded by Charles Lazarus in Washington, DC during the post-war baby boom era in 1948. The flagship store in New York City's Times Square is the largest toy store in the world, featuring a colorful ferris wheel.
