Mijn verslaving; my addiction

I fell in love with Milosh few years back and I am still. I am so addicted to his voice and style. I simply love all his music. I wish he could come to Belgium and perform. That will be my day!

My Pandora bracelet.... this is indeed an expensive addiction. Somehow the shop assistant recommended me a big bracelet (19cm) regardless of my wrist (14cm) size. But if I make it a full-charm bracelet...... it will look prettier and more fitting. I've never worn such an expensive jewelery but I think it as a treatment to myself :-)

My favourite comic book! I simply love Urasawa Naoki! I prefer Monster but 20th century boys is also a very good comic book :-) I am re-reading it in Dutch and it has been good so far. 

Mijn Ukulele met inlay stickers! Awww I am not yet very addicted to playing ukulele but will be soon - once I become better at it :-)

그래 벨기에에서의 삶을 긍정적으로 생각하고 싶다면, 지금 내가 누리는 문화적 혜택을 생각하는게 가장 좋을 것 같아. 그 중의 하나인 만화책과, 음악 그리고 영화.

우간다나 다른 개발국에 있었더라면 이런걸 누리기는 힘들었겠지.
물론 자연과 화창한 날씨를 compromise 해야하긴 하지만 :-)
여하튼 오늘도 밀로쉬의 음악을 들으며 자야겠다

shopping/winkelen

Shopping!
Oh well, there is no such thing like 'boxing day' in Belgium, instead there is a mega sale period in January. So I had to wait for January to come for good deals. But since I was going to Antwerp, a great shopping city, I couldn't resist myself but to go shopping :-)

My main purpose of 'winkelen' was to buy Christmas gifts for my family and Bart, however a thought of mega sale couldn't go away from my head.... so I couldn't buy much.

I found something that Bart needed for a long time, yes.
I also found a pair of black flat shoes that I needed for a long time, yes.
I wasn't really searching for Pandora store but.... on the way to Hugo Boss I 'accidentally' passed the shop and couldn't resist going in. There I got myself a charm!

A tigress charm. This is supposedly new year collection of Chinese Zodiac signs. It isn't even on the website. I feel like I am a '신상녀'.

After spending enormous amount of money :( I just wanted to chill by browsing books in a bookshop. There I found a book about sex toys. Interesting. This country is so liberated and publishes all sorts of books! Oh well I checked the publisher and it was from the Netherlands. Nice.

I immediately bought it because it was fun to see such book. This is unthinkable in Korea - finding a sex toy book in a normal bookshop in the daylight. Wonder about the content? It is really detailed and informative (with many sexy pictures), apparently. :-)

두번째로 다녀온 앤트웝. 갈 때마다 쇼핑을 하지만 이번에는 1월의 세일을 기다려야 하기 때문에, 많은 물건들을 구입하지는 않았다.

그렇지만 나의 지름신은 결국 나의 소비욕구를 멈추지 못했고, 몇 가지 물건을 샀는데 그 중 가장 재미있는 아이템은 성인용품에 관한 책. 굉장히 디테일하고 많은 정보가 담겨져 있다. 물론 너무나도 섹시한 사진들과 함께. 이거 너무 재미있는 아이템이다 싶어서 바로 계산대로 들고가 구입 :-)  대낮에 그것도 일반 서점에서 이런 책을 살 수 있다니 참 이 나라 많이 오픈되어있다.

그리고 나를 위해 구입한 판도라 참. 우연치 않게 발견한 샾을 그냥 지나칠 수가 없어서 ㅠ_ㅠ 예상에도 없던 지출이... 그렇지만 점원언니가 신상품이라면서 십이간지 참들을 보여주는데, 나의 사인 호랑이는 안 살 수가 없었더랬다. 홈페이지에는 아직 업데이트가 안되어있다. 호호 이런 기분이 바로 신상녀의 기분?

그렇지만 나 너무 소비주의에 물들고 있는 것 같아. 나를 위해 무언가를 사면 기분은 좋지만 한 편으로는 이런거에 기쁨 느끼는 내가 조금은 슬프다. 

Pandora's box

Yes.. I opened Pandora's box few weeks ago.. and this is deadly addictive!
Since I made some money in the last two weeks, I wanted to treat myself something special.

I am not really a jewellery person but I couldn't help but keep looking at charms and rings from Pandora website. So... as a reward of my HARDWORKING, I gave myself a beautiful ring :-)

Initially I wanted to buy this ring in Leuven after work, but the ring was not there and the shop assistance had to order one from me both in 50 and 52 size.

But the day after when I was supposed to go and try the ring, the company gave us a lift to Brussels. So... hmmmmmm I had to go to a shop in Brussels.

Anyways this ring was also the last one... the shop assistance said I am lucky. Yes I am lucky enough to buy this ring by myself... hahah :-)
