SoHo with Johanna!

I was about to happily blog about my afternoon but something just killed my mood. I'll still blog but I won't put my whole heart in it. Which sucks. So, moving on.

Today, I was planning to meet my mom in SoHo 'cause she promised to help me get some new shirts 'cause my old ones were too short. Guess what? I forgot my phone AND iPod today. Uber tight. I then decided to go home, get my stuffs and go meet her. But after I reached her on Johanna's phone, she was already there. So I went with Johanna to go meet up with her.

Johanna had time to kill so she spent the afternoon with me. My mom's foot was hurting so I told her she could go home after leaving me some spending money. Johanna and I went to Payless first: I needed shoes. Well, wanted. Most of my shoes are sneakers or my sister's dead flats. I wanted my own ): ! We both had loads of fun at Payless: Johanna was trying on some random shoes and boots while I was looking around for flats and stuffs.

Yea, Johanna found one of those long Converses and decided to try it on. It took her forever to stick her foot in and tie it up. I tried on at least 3-4 pairs of shoes while she was doing it! After we had our fun, I bought one pair of flats and a Van-look-alike. It was comfy, so I don't care. I'm totally going back tomorrow for the pair of boots I fell in love with. Heh.

After Payless, we walked down Broadway and stopped by H&M. We saw a zipper-up skirt and decided to try it on. It reminded us of Phoebe and her "easy access" skirt. We each got a dress shirt and tried the outfit in the fitting room, both of us camwhoring while we were at it.

Yea, that's me, IN A SKIRT. My legs are so dang thick. ); After H&M, we left to Forever21 'cause I saw a shirt the other day that I wanted. It was a plain T-shirt. I need a new one, badly. I feel like I'm wearing the same-ish thing every day and my T-shirts shrunk a bit in length. I bought a grey one and a white long-sleeved one. Then Johanna and I walked by the accessories and I saw nail polish. It's a weakness of mine. Took me 10+ minutes to decide on which ones to buy. I stuck with the metallic emerald and purple. $2.80 each x] !

We left Forever21 and came across a new store: some Halloween thing. Inside, there were so many Halloween/costume stuffs (obviously). I also found OPI nail polish. Now I don't have to buy online anymore (: ! And we also saw venetian masks. I don't know why, but I have a thing for the Victorian age and masquerade and stuff. It just... intrigues me in a way. I find it elegant and romantic in some ways.

After browsing the Halloween stuffs, we were getting hungry. We decided to get some Jamba Juice; it's been a while. Even though it was cold today, we shared a Sixteen smoothie and a flat bread. All the seats there were taken so we sat outside, in the cold, on a bench in the middle of the street. No lie. It's one of those mall thingys you see on highways. Well, people call them "malls." I think of them as mini-parks...in the middle of a big street.

We ate, chatted, took pictures and just chilled. It was a nice afternoon and lovely bonding time. I definitely don't regret taking my point&shoot around. I can' wait 'til more spontaneous things pop up and I get to use my p&s.

I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy this little mini-project/new habit.
