shopping craze

went to orchard today after work coz needed to buy some stuff for the gift exchange tomorrow. expected to have a lot of people, but that's way tooooo much. it's just a normal weekday, why are there so many people? shopping don't need money? I'm shocked to see the crowd and the queue in almost all the shops... I can't even find any seat after checking out a few makan places, in the end had to bear with the hunger n head back home to eat at the kopitiam downstair instead.

at orchard I tweeted:
挤身于购物军队中 我窒息
醉生梦死 纸醉金迷 能不能有更平和的圣诞。。。

btw, anyone on twitter? can add me at my gmail add.
