going crazy in the online shopping world

it's sat night in hall studying alone again, and being so lonesome, i naturally spent a fair bit of time shopping online (when i'm taking breaks la).

can i tell u how much i think the DBS IB sucks? the whole day i had so many problems with it... it's either the page cannot be displayed, or the java applet cannot get started so cannot login, or the security device applet also cannot get started, or even if i managed to log in after all these nightmares, i still cannot perform so many of the functions, or even if i did perform some of the functions (or thought i did), it turns out in the end that i didn't. i swear i spent hours n din get a single thing done.

i made a transfer, or so i thought, and even had the transaction reference number and all. but turns out at the end of the day i realised maybe the transfer hadn't been made. cos my transactions after that appeared on my history, but that particular transfer didn't. so made a call to dbs, they claimed the no. wasn't a transaction reference, but something else. now this is sooo strange la. i'm pretty sure i won't make this kinda mistake leh. it's a matter of money. anyway end story is that i'm convinced dbs IB sucks. gonna get the jitters using it from now on.

ok back to the online shopping thingy. i think the physical world of shopping can't satisfy me anymore, such that now i have to turn to and am hooked on the virtual world of shopping. haha or perhaps it's just that online shopping is so apt for pple like me stuck in hall n can't get out to shop for... oh my, is that 2 weeks w/o shopping already??

it's just so convenient la. view catalogues, see the products u like, n click click, send out the money. i think deprivation has driven me to do such a seemingly senseless thing, transferring money to any tom, dick or harry that's selling things online. haven't even received any goods yet.

i must blame yuan for introducing me to the world of sgspree... brrrr. *kiddin* actually i asked her for the site. :p seriously good n tempting sprees. now, today i did such a bad thing. i intro it to ceci. cos there's this spree for beads and charms, n i know ceci loves this sorta thing, and would love to get some for herself, even though i did get something lil' for her that i thought she'll like. thought of making something. hmmz. anyway it's bad that i made her go look at the spree n distracted her from her essay, which she's so bz rushing. haha. sorry babe, just thought u wouldn't wanna miss this opportunity since we've both always felt that nice charms r hard to come by in singapore. well, i hope our charms turn out nice in real life n that the order and everything goes well...*excited*

oh well. this is the website for anyone interested in joining sprees to buy stuff... anything from clothes to shoes to lingeries to jewelleries to birkenstocks to cartoons to makeup to bags to...anything u can think of if u're a gal. here it is, the mother of all online shopping websites:
