bellatif's blog post - shopping in sydney

So today I went out with boyfriend. We didn’t really know what to do, so we let faith decide for us. We just jumped in the car, and drive off. Just see were we would end up. We wanted to go back to the beach, and explore. We have seen Bondi (very tourist like), and some other ones. We both like the beach very much, and boyfriend would just love to live nearby. So close to the water, and such a nice view.

So anyhow, we were driving, and I did not know when we would be back. So while driving I just screamed out and said he had to stop at the first supermarket. Just to get our stack of food and drinks in case we would get lost. Yah, me giving directions can result in seriously aggravation. So better to have a drink and some candy.

So we stopped at a ‘homemark’. Boyfriend waited outside while I explore the shop. Went to the drinks, bought 4 V-drinks (an energy drank, $ 8.39), a bottle of Aquaqueen spring water ($ 1.00). Then went to the biscuits , and picked up Arnotts Chocolate Caramel Crowns (much caramel, $ 2.95), 4 blueberry bagels (was good, but not so fresh, $ 3.65), Tim Tam chocolate ($ 2.95). So almost had to pay $ 20 (in fact 19.53).

Anyhow, I have two wallets. One for my bank notes and one for my coins. So was standing there, looking for my coin wallet. Have to much coins any why. And my coins are in a little dog, in the tummy (like teddy bear, but in my case a dog bear, hmmmm). Yah, I know, very girlie.

So while I was taking my dog wallet out of my purse, and trying to find like 53 cent, I notice the guy was looking very close at this ORIGINAL wallet. So I said to him, “you don’t mind if I pay with my dog”. And he was like smiling and said something like, "ooh, no problem".

So while I was giving him some coins, he was still smiling. So he gave me some coins back (didn’t find like 53 cent) and he said: “some for the dog”. I smiled and while I was putting the coins back in my dogs tummy, I said to him: “yah, still need to practise my slang a bit”. And he started to laugh so hard, almost bashing his head against the register. Never expected that to happen, everyone was like looking at us. So I grab my stuff, and said, "see you next time". He was still laughing and didn’t really know what to say next (maybe he was a bit embarrassed that he laughed so hard). So I just smiled. While I was walking to the car, boyfriend saw I was laughing a bit. And he asked me ‘what so funny’. I told him the hole deal, and boyfriend started to laugh also. So yah, it was a fun day. And we did make it to the beach. And now i have lots of energy of those V drinks. Have to make a dip in the pool and work it off.
