we're so fake.

Yesterday I spent the day hanging out in the south east side of Melbourne. First off, I hung out with M and Sh at Dandenong Plaza. They were going to get their eyebrows done, i didn't really need to go but as its nearing the end of holidays, i thought, why not? I arrived at Dandy early and hit some of the op shops, i couldn't remember where some of them were because i was too lazy to save a map on my ipod. The op shops that i went to where the salvos, savers and red cross, but i didn't have much luck in any of the stores. i didn't mind because its always fun to have a browse anyways. I'm always put off by savers because of its sheer size and the prices are more expensive than smaller op shops. There's a 50%  off sale on monday which i'm going to sadly miss because i'll be a uni in bendigo (another reason why monash is better, gives me easy access to op shops). Then i met up with M and Sh, we walked to the salon place in dandy plaza, they got their eyebrows shaped. Oh man i felt sorry for them, because it involves waxing and threading. Afterwards I had a list of things that i wanted to do, also i wanted to explore around the plaza, I'm so jealous, why can't there be more plazas where i live. So we went to Kmart because i wanted to buy a pack of pens that were pretty good for cheapo ones, not that i needed anymore pens but i can't help myself, they were so cheap. A pack of 12 for 75 cents :) And Sh bought a little excercise book. Then we went into Terry White and i bought some nail polish, i was going to buy more but i narrowed down my choices to 3, M was laughing at the colour names, "its not yellow, it's Spring Blossum." Next on my list was Dick Smiths to grab some cheap headphones because they were on sale. My current headphones are bright pink so i can't inconspicuously listen to music in lectures. So i got these new black sony ones which should do the job, although my shorter hair cut wouldn't hide much of the headphone cables. Then we headed over to myer, and i was going to show Sh some perfumes but the testers were behind the counter so i didn't want to ask the assistance. So we headed to look at some diaries, they were 30% which isn't much but i have been looking for a diary for ages. Sh and I got matching diaries, mine is green while her's is purple. It's nothing special compared to my moleskine, but it will do. I was really exited to use it nonetheless, nothing better making your mark on something new. Then Sh had to go home before her metcard expired, hehe i told her how to make the most of a 2-hour concession. It was just M and I left, we headed over to officeworks to do our business, which was to make our fake IDs, they turned out alright. The photos turned out more blurry and we should have used a bigger font, but hopefully they will be enough to get us into the concert, according to the ID's I'm 17, actually wouldn't mind if i were 17 again. we hung around officeworks, sitting on the chairs and looking at the stationary, there were so many things that i wanted to get, but M told me not to, and they weren't necessary items, well they were necessary in my head. i bought a yellow legal pad, like Rory Gilmore, let's hope it motivates me to write notes. We got everything we needed to get done, so M had to go home and make sure that Scooby was ok, I stayed on the bus to visit DFO in moorabin because i haven't been there and i don't think i will get the chance to visit it in the near future. I was zipping around the centre so i could get through all the stores. i think its bigger than the one in essendon, but i still have a liking towards the essendon one. maybe its because i go there more often hence buying more clothes there. At typo, i bought a desk calender because i really needed one, there were some nice notebooks but i didn't need them. I also ended up buying a dotti skirt that i thought looked pretty, hopefully i get the chance to wear, as i do have some unworn clothes, partly because i never get the opportunity to wear it or i have other clothes staples that i would rather wear. After my round at DFO, i headed home, my ipod died while i was on the essendon bound train, but i didn't mind, i just sung songs in my head. 

Today i ran some errands around Footscray and i hit some op shops while waiting for my mum as well. I bought some clothes, not vintage one, just some everyday clothes i can wear in general. I'm not having much luck with finding vintage clothes these days. I think my mum is happier that i am buying more functional ''modern'' clothes, she tells me to stop wearing vintage because it makes me look older, but thats because i think i'm not very good at styling them in a fashionable way, i like to just chuck anything on and don't mind that it clashes or looks weird. Also I'm exicted about this part, I have my outfits picked out for Sidewave and Soundwave, which i will show you guys in the next post, but the outfits are along the lines of a shirt and shorts.  i would like a pair of chucks to wear but i really can't justify the price at the moment, i'm hoping to get some on sale in a colour that i like and black. i think i will stick with my cheapo canvas shoes in which i have a ridiculous number of pairs and colours. So stay tuned for my concert outfits. 

Love Squealer.
