Girlfriend or Europe?

I had an awesome day today. I went to church in the morning and then to a vintage fair at Leichhardt afterwards. oh & Google lied! Google map told me it would take 15 minutes to walk from Petersham station to Leichardt Townhall. LIESS! My Mum & I trekked half an hour in the heat! But it was worth it. The vintage fair was a unique experience. I bought a dress for $10 and a pair of antique ornaments for $5!

Afterwards we explored the shops in Leichhardt. There was this small shop full of masks from Venice. They were absolutely breathtaking. I've decided to buy a mask when I get to Venice. So excited.Then Mum & I took a bus into the city. On the bus Mum asked this sweet old lady if the bus went to the Opera House. She thought we were tourists. She asked me, "So where are you and your sister from?"

... what? My mum was delighted that someone thought she was young enough to look like my sister. But should I be offended to look old enough to be my Mother's sister?

I look at my aunts. &yes I am. =T

Subsequently, we took a train back to Wynyard, where more shopping began. I bought another blazer from Portmans. It was originally $199 and it was discounted down to $99. However it was labelled incorrectly as $59.99! So that was the price I got it at. I was very pleased! =D Then we went to Myers and oh do I love the "highlight 75% off already reduced prices sale"! I bought a Cooper St Swing Jacket (RRP $149) for $25!! The lady at the counter told me it was probably highlighted incorrectly but still gave it to me anyways! So happy! Mum was very jealous! =)& I found a new love for incorrectly price clothing.

Shopping was cut short because Dad (probably won at the pokies) decided to shout my family (which included my aunts, uncles & cousins) dinner at Punchbowl. Its been a while since my cousins and I had a meal together. During dinner, we discussed our overseas plans. One of the twins is going to Japan whilst the other is going to America. So I asked Kevin (their older brother) if he has any plans on going overseas? His reply?

"No, I have a girlfriend."

... I didn't know what to say to that. Apparently, he pays for everything, which means if he were to travel overseas- he would be paying for 2. So all night I was thinking, would I choose a relationship or travel?

What would you choose?


For now, it doesn't matter- I have a free trip to Europe.
So jealous much, Cynthia?
