14/8/2010

It was a last minute decision AGAIN. My girlfriend went to do some research on the net to find out who had extra or redundant tickets to the makeup sale which would be held today at Renaissance Hotel KL, opposite the ZOUK. At 10.30 pm, she was so happy, excited and jumped on cloud nine when she got an approve from a girl who don't want the free invitation. In order to get it, we drove all the way to Damansara Damai, near some where at sg.buloh i supposed. We turned into the wrong destination for 3 times at the McDonald, but eventually we reached the fella's house and had the tickets. One hour ++ journey two and fro from Sunway. Since she's soooo keen to go there, i think it's worth la. Hmmm...

It was already 12am when we reached home. To your information, those who attended to the sales last year, went to grab the queue at the main entrance of the ball room in Renaissance Hotel at 3 something in the morning. So, if we wanted to be the first few customers, we had to be there by 4am. Just after our decision to wake up at 3.30 am, my friend called saying that they wanted to come over to have a night chatting. A bunch of them, funny and best friends, came over at 12.30am and we did have a good chat until 2.30am i supposed so. Arguments about some movies, part of the real life ghost stories, blah blah blah.. Due to the medication effect, my girlfriend went to bed an hour earlier. So, literally i left with only an hour bed before i woke up much more earlier before the sun rise.

p.s:/ after i heard about the scary ghoosy story, i had a hard time to go up the staircase alone, though with a doggie. :'(

It doesn't matter anyway, my exhaustion covered my fear, i slept soundly just a few minutes after. Yar, few minutes after, alarm rang without me noticing! I put it on snooze again and again, and we failed to wake up at the expected time. We delayed by 45 minutes. Owh..
Speeding in the dawn was nice, but it was dangerous if there's any rain, though. For the first time ever, from Sunway to our destination we took less than 25 minutes. But then, the situation seemed unfavourable, even though we reached there at 5am, the queue was already a long one!!! Imagine those shopaholics really went there at 3-4++ in the morning! Some even had their breakfast there. And i think, the most ideal breakfast during a mad situation like this would be the McDonald breakfast. We wanted to grab some before we went there, but McD was our dinner night before, so we had empty stomach without McD for our healthy concern. :) Some Muslims had their friend mee hoon before they puasa IN THE QUEUE too! Hmmm...

Well, i was so sleepy in the crowd. Everybody was sitting on the carpet while waiting. In no time, i could see the queue had reached the staircase down to the lobby! @.@ Finally, the gate of Heaven opened at 7.15am. More than 2 hours of waiting, finally i was bit relief. You just can't imagine how much people were 'fighting' in the crowd, pushing against each other, shouting here and there, grabbing for the most wanted goods, and no doubt, those guys who went there with their partners were mostly left behind while carrying goods for the females. I was one of them and too, had to 'fight' with the girls to get my way opened. All of us were rubbing our asses against each other, just like the cars in the traffic jam - bumper to bumper, but in this crowd, it was considered as - ass to ass. >.< Fortunately, the ballroom was so cooling despite thousands of people were inside there. :)

Reaching the payment part, i could simply see the girls were swiping their credit cards with a range of RM300-RM1200. Minimum payment was also RM200 per customer. I couldn't imagine how many million ringgit would they earn today, with all those shopaholics.. How i wish there's any warehouse sales for guys, perhaps some gadgets like the iphone, imac, or maybe some ferrari or lamborghini? LOL!



The invitation card. Bobbi Brown, Estee Lauder, DKNY, the girls' stuff anyway. :)



Sitting in the queue at 5am.



Again, sitting in the queue..



Finally, everybody was getting ready for the fight in the grand ballroom!

Time to sign off.
Ciao!!!
Cheers.
