Term break ending...
Time passes real fast. My term break is coming to an end. It's not holiday exactly but actually study week. Boring man... Been craving for mooncakes the past few weeks. Finally fulfilled my temptation. B and I got mooncakes frm Swensen yest (the one on the left in the pic) for both our families. They are ice-cream mooncakes. We chose chocolate, vanilla, durian and macademia. The mooncakes on the right are given by my cousin who dropped by my house this morn. Those are frm Breadtalk. I'm currently short of the snow-skinned ones (my personal all-time fav) though. Hmmm...Went OG to shop with my mom this afternoon while my bro went over, together with my dad, to my cousin's house to repair his comp. Managed to snag the 2 tops (below). The white baby-doll spagh is very exp, $39.90. Luckily, there was 20% discount. The pink one was selling at 50% off for 9 bucks only.
Really detest OG's promotional and management styles. I dun feel any special being their members for 3 or 4 consecutive years already. They practically have sales all year round such tat I dun really use the membership card except to accumulate points. And the points are really useless cos u can only use it to exchange for damn lousy items (E.g. China-made cutleries, awful watches and bags). Not only so, u have to fork out a few more dollars for those items on top of your loyalty points. I feel tat it is juz a gimmick to make customers come bk and exchange for the items cos they won't wan the points to be wasted. On the other hand, they would also shop around upon seeing so many promotions. And then they would get the membership again for merely spending $75. It's juz one whole cycle to cheat ppl (esp those aunties) of their monies. I said I'm gonna write in to the management. I asked the staff for their website. My mom told the guy I was going to complain abt OG. The guy was kinda taken bk. But my mom quickly reassured him tat I wasn't gonna complain abt him or the service. He told us he's also not happy working there and today was his last day. Lol... Looks like OG has got loads to improve on. Otherwise, I think it wun last for long.
Had dinner at my aunt's house. She cooked gigantic prawns which were very delicious. Alright, gotta get bk to my books now. *sigh* I'm running out of time. After my tests then i'll go complain abt OG :p
