iLosT my iTouch.

Sigh. I'm super sad. I lost my iPod Touch at work yesterday. I didn't even realize it was gone until I was getting ready to get off work! I REMEMBERED that I placed it in the drawer at my counter. So, I was sure that I took it to work with me.

It was a pretty busy day - good sales, a good amount of crowd, and lots of new clothes to put up. But I had my eyes on the counter most of the time even when I wasn't standing there to guard the area. I couldn't figure out which customer was it until I checked the camera footage today.

Some lady asked me for a size of a particular pants and I had to walk to a blind spot, to check. As soon as I was out of her sight, being blocked by a huge pillar, she literally leaned across the counter to open the drawer and took it! OMG. It was so pissing off when I saw it!

And to think that I purposely charged the battery and added new songs the night before, just for the blardee thief. Geramnya!!

Do you reckon I should make a police report? But what's the point unless they can catch the lady and return my iPod? :/

I feel so empty walking around without being able to listen to my music. Sigh. And it was only a year old :( Including the case and earphones I bought for it, that is $650 down the drain!
I've been a lil' sulky over it all day. And it's gonna last for a couple more days.

Janice seems a little too happy for my lost - keep reinforcing her suggestion to get iPhone again =.=
I cooked spaghetti bolognese for dinner. It was pretty spontaneous but I seriously didn't have mood to have dinner outside since I was busy mourning over my loss. Lack of ingredients but I think it turned out alright :) I've been putting sambal oelek and honey into my bolegnese sauce. I think it adds a good touch to it. I'll try out Yish's suggestions next time, if I'm ever bothered to go marketing again.

Anyway, I just remembered the reason for this post. Yish and I were talking about how we love this grey cardi we both bought from GP ages ago. And that I planned to collect different colors every year. Except that I bought one in a different material last year and didn't find it as comfy.

I bought another one today, along with many other things.. She asked for a picture and when I finally took one, she's no longer online :/
New sheets from Laura Ashley - I tend to buy them during VIP Night since you get a bargain!Okay, Yish. Here's a close-up of the wood buttons just for you. The cardi is true to color in the pic. Looks like beige despite being labelled as pale pink.

I THINK I spent about $700 today, which was totally unplanned. o_O" I wasn't even lemming on a lot of things! I think it must have been the need for retail therapy to soothe my sadness.

I should start following Shopaholic's Anonymous' tactic - "DO I REALLY NEED THIS?" :P Nah, I think I just shouldn't be left alone when shopping. At least a companion could stop me, if the purchase weren't worth it. Okay, shall refrain from buying anything in these two weeks.
Now, back to my sulking *pouts* as I try to get some sleep before work.

Better to make a police report since you have video footage plus you can see her face? She might be doing it to other stores...

Yeah that freaking bitch.. DO WHAT YOU CAN TO GET HER
even if it means plastering pics of that video footage around the area to embarrass her

Y: Yeah, I love the color too! Wore it for the first time today, until I realize the weather is pretty warm this evening! And I DO want to embarrass her, but I'm just not sure how would my boss and colleagues think of me LOL. Steph thinks I'm a bedsheet/quilt cover addict haha.

MW: I didn't know if it was worth it to report, esp since I don't think I'm getting my baby back. Not sure if we had a clear shot of her face. And how are they gonna even find/catch her??

Lily: I work in a small boutique on Collins. GP = General Pants & Co. They have some pretty good stuff!
