Today I was supposed to go to Westfield and do some serious gift shopping. I'm going to visit my home in Finland on Wednesday so I had a few things to buy for my family and my best friend. Basically, I have been supposed to buy a shirt for my mum since November so I guess it is about time to do it since I was officially the world's most terrible daughter missing both Mother's Day and my mum's birthday a week after that. Also, I was supposed to buy a late birthday present for my best friend (her birthday was in March, ehem), something for my dad and also a gift for my lovely goddaughter. And the result after 5 hours shopping:

- A shirt for my mum - to be bought

- Something for my dad - to be bought

- A present for my best friend - to be bought

- A gift for my goddaughter - check

- Loads of stuff for myself - check

Oh goodness. Everytime. Everytime! The first issue for me is that I am super critical about buying something for other people. The reason I managed to buy the gift for my goddaughter is that she is a kid and does not really mind, and besides her criteria were really strict: a princess costume and a princess doll. That one I managed. 

I have tomorrow evening time to find the rest of the gifts. I am working at the office tomorrow from half 8 to half 5 so I only have a few hours to find them, but I know a good place at Piccadilly Circus that has saved me before so I'll pop in there tomorrow. 

Anyways now I'm waiting for Mal to come from work. We'll go and buy something for dinner and just chill at home. 

Wish me luck finding some proper nice gifts tomorrow, otherwise I am SO screwed! 

Something I bought today

I went shopping wearing this shirt. Not the best start for the day: the first person I encountered on the street was an old man who told me I was dressed up in atomic war symbol. He says that is what the symbol represents. I told him that is not what I represent. KA-CHING!
