Another slow day. Yup, no responses. At all. So it was a full free day at work, woo! Except not really, cause I feel bad for not doing anything… I mean, I literally checked my messages all day and made plans for myself. And tomorrow, I have a feeling I’ll (finally) be captioning all my pictures I have uploaded. (Which if you do not have access to and would like access, please tell me! It is under private due to the information I am handing out over these pictures.)
I didn’t eat anything but a chocolate wafer bar at work today, so at four I left and went to a restaurant in Rynek, and ordered some penne pasta with tomato sauce, garlic, onions, bacon, and green-leafy-things. It was good. (: Then had some ice cream, banana (which was faker than other places I’ve been to in Poland) and bakaliowe, which was not as good as other places I have had such a flavor at (which, I don’t know how to describe it to you except that it’s usually yogurt or cream-flavored, with raisins, nuts, and other such things). I walked around the square, looking and comparing postcard prices, trying to find flags, and overall, just enjoying myself. Went into Empik, again. Great store (: But I didn’t feel like exploring too much.
Although, I did something I really probably should not have done… Ya see… as I was walking to the tram (not trolley) stop, there was this really really big sign on a store saying “SALE! UP TO 80% OFF!” … Ok, 80%. Damn. That’s a lot. Not only that, but I immediately did the “convert over to USD” thing in my mind, and usually, from my experience, the clothing I have bought in Poland has been at a far better price than in the US. And with such a sale… well… I really couldn’t lose. And I was right. I ended up buying a short-sleeved, white pullover, which I have desperately needed every time I have gone into a sort of presentation thing and felt like my shirts’ sleeves are too short or other things like that. A strapless black bra to wear under things which easily show bra straps. Annnnd… A strapless shirt. Yup. That’s right. Cute, black strapless shirt with a bow on the side. And I wouldn’t have bought it if it looked bad (and trust me, I tried on other ones, and they didn't look good). These three items cost less than my post-work dinner. Even if I don’t include the tip. Yes. Three articles of clothing ended up costing less than water and pasta. Best part? Name of the store: Della Moda Italiana. So, given all of these factors, I am quite content and proud of this purchase. I am not ashamed. Hah. Btw, if you are curious, the total cost in US dollars was 12.39. Give or take some due to fluctuation of exchange rates.
After that, I did go home. I was tired. I was planning on staying to go to a Buddhist meditation session, but… I was tired… and I realized I’d get home really late and still have to make something to eat and shower up before bed. The session starts at 8, it’d probably end around 9, I’d get home around 10… So yeah, unfortunately, I decided to go home. Especially since I’d like to have the energy to see the night life on Thursday night, since Friday night I’ll likely be heading to Strzelin. Dunno yet, have to talk to my uncle about that. However, I plan on putting up my LOST laminations today! Hopefully drawing the beginning of a very long series I’d like to finish; simple and to the point, but effective, I’d say, in making me work on my art. And, maybe even hanging up the flags (heck, I saw a European Union one in Empik; I might end up buying it… it’s about $10). Ah well, time to eat and then another day of work! Tomorrow you guys that have access to my album associated with this blog will see new captions. :D
