Shopping mis-adventure.

I am leaving for Tokyo next Friday i.e. on the 22nd. I am really excited for it. However, one thing am not too excited about it is the preparation. I hate shopping!..even if its for myself...I detest it if I have to do it for someone else. I just dont have the patience for it. Anyways I went to the nearby mall with mom and dad...cuz they were pretty sure I would mess it up (which even I myself believe). There was a huge sale going .. and the place was jam packed. I quickly selected a pair of jeans, some T-shirts and formal shirts, a belt, a bag and the works. The entire ordeal took close to 3 hours. When it was finally over, we rambled on for the exit. Thats when the buzzers went off. I was like what the hell! The security guards took our stuff and started checking it. We showed them the bill..but they were cool..they knew the guy who packed all the stuff, forgot to remove the tags. And thus began a series of activities which involved opening each bag..checking each item for the tag..removing it and re-checking it with the sensors. That was when me and dad totally lost it and asked why the hell did it happen in the first place. I got a reply saying that they had hired loads of new guys since they expect a huge turnout for the sale..and since they were new..they forgot to get the thing out. Anyways after spending around half an hour at the exit gate..the guys finally finished all the checking. After we came out of the mall, we realized we had parked the car all the way to the other side of the building. I sighed as dad got the car around and we all jumped in. Phew!..what a day!..I was tired as hell and the humidity dint help either..hmm..on second thoughts..it did help a little..we stopped for some beer at the local shop and had a nice time drinking the entire afternoon away. Hmm..anyways I am so glad all the shopping is over. I also have one more big boring job on my list. I gotta transfer loads of stuff from my Desktop to my Laptop. But I guess that could wait for tomorrow. I can handle only one boring job at a time.
