Mega Sales Month - Day 1 大减价第一天

Wed, 28 Jun 2006 23:22:03 GMT

It's a happy day for the french. Les bleus (The Blues, french football team) just beat the shit out of the the spanish (my boss made fun of me coz I was wearing an orange top, fortunately "we" won the game, or I would've be the one who got ass kicked in the street), people celebrated all night on the Champs-Elysées, at the Stade de France or at bars for a glorious victory that had been waited for a long long time. Many of them didn't get much sleep, coz they had to get up early and rush to the shopping centre in order to bring back the goodies with 50% reduction that had also been waited for quite a while. Today is the start of the summer sales.

So on my way home after work, I kept asking myself whether I should spend a layover at Les Quatre Temps (The Four Seasons, A big mall like Grand Gateway of Shanghai, relatively smaller and older though.). Wasn't afraid of the risk of spending extra money, it was just the things I was carrying didn't seem to allow me to wander around casually. I got an extra bottle of champagne (from the party we'd organized for a client company), a can of corns (which would be one of the ingredients of my dinner), a banana (just in case I got hungry on the way home) and a book. And I'd put all of them in a transparent plastic bag. Firstly, do people shop or windowshop carrying around a bottle of champagne ? I wasn't able to get an answer, but I went there anyway, and soon after I'd entered the mall, I bought myself a huge corn of ice-cream to distract people from the weird combination in the plastic bag in my other hand.

It felt like Parkson during the Chinese New Year holidays except that there was no background music of "Gong He Xin Xi" being replayed. I'd never seen so many people in a french shopping centre. There were Soldes (Sales) in all kinds of fonts and coulors in every corner that even people from outer planets could easily figure out what was going on.

The crowd and the heavy bottle were tiring me out, I went home straight after I'd finished the corn. Euh..should I go back there tomorrow ? lol

路过Sephora，既然随身带着vip和礼券那么就进去了。圣诞将至，收银台前排着长长的队，台后面簇着一打店员正在忙碌的包装着礼物。目的单纯的我看着前后两个dame手里装得实登登的篮子，悄悄得把那张单薄的礼券慢慢塞到口袋里。

轮到我了，拿到Givenchy新品男士和女士香水test tube各一份，小姐面无表情地对我说，化装包发完了，你下周再来吧。我一边说好的好的，一边卷了tube就闪。心里想，等我赚钱了，一定揣着vip来你们这里激情消费，瓦哈哈哈。。哈。。-_-b

晚上睡觉前试了一下男用这款，伴随着棉被上的阵阵薄荷香入睡了。Givenchy这两个味道还是很赞的。决定收录到gigi's parfume collection里面去。

心情不错，好吧，我承认不是简单的路过。。。

作为女生，有些东西想避开不买是有难度滴。

害羞也好，讨厌也罢，年龄到了自然会推开商店的大门，不屑的眼神变得迷茫，最后都会同货架上琳琅满目的胭脂首饰一样放起光来。你会发现原来粉底液还分若干种颜色，原来除了液状的，还有慕斯状的。挑选不再让你感觉麻烦，反而变成一种享受。当然也不能太沉浸，你的皮夹子可不想瘦。

自从某人在烈日下强行给我撑了把伞，我对皮肤的保养特别是美白的关心程度上升了几个档次。现在更是打着职业女性的旗帜，先后购进了日霜晚霜和防晒霜，加上储藏已久的唇彩和试管香水，发现还需要一个化妆包。有了包就容不得包里有多余的空间，于是粉底和发夹就这么来了。Sephora收银处一个亚裔的小姐热情无比的问我是否要办贵宾卡，why not? 当伊发现我的签名是工整的汉字时，

- Vous êtes Taiwanaise? /您是台湾人？

- Non je suis Chinoise. /不，我是中国人。（啊。。我错了。。）

- Moi aussi je suis chinoise/我也是中国人。

- 是吗？

- 是啊，你是哪儿人？

- 我是上海人。

- 增啊？！吾阿斯上海宁亚。

- 啊。。呵呵。。呵呵。。。

简短交流之后我不再打扰她工作，离开前伊往我的袋子里塞了好些眼霜和粉饼的试用品，不知是否每个客人都有如此待遇，我仍然感受到了同胞间的慷慨。

女人是冲动的，我在这个基础上还要再快那么一点点，所以现在头发就是这个颜色了。
