Have i written abt VCC before?

It stands for Virginia Centre Commons.

So every evening, we get a choice of 2 places to visit, either Walmart or VCC. VCC is sorta a shopping mall (a very teeny weeny one though, unlike Singapore's Orchard ION or IMM etc). However, there are quite a number of shops down here (we are given only abt 1 hr down here...quite impossible to finish walking the ground given that there are so many affordable shops there.

I must say, even the entrance of a lousy (compared to other US stores) shopping mall like VCC looks so posh

Was trying to find out what VCC means. Finally got a picture of it!

There's a Chinese restaurant there! Authentic Chinese Food!!! Not the instant rice we have every night, or the pre-cooked heavily seasoned chicken...it's real roasted chicken with rice, chinese style. The stall owner is from China, and always look upon us as fellow countrymen when we visit her stall. It's so nice to meet a fellow chinese even though she's not a Singaporean (It's even nicer since she serves us authentic chinese food...i'm becoming a glutton:))

Look at these...how can i resist visiting her stall every time i go to VCC. It's tons and tons of sinful, authentic, chinese roasted chicken

Haven really had time to visit around but there's Victoria Secret there...and it's really pink. I dun know how can the staff working there stand all those pink in the store...it's really just pink, nothing by pink, pink and more pink!!!

And there's this store (my favourite) called Burlington (weird name though) It's something like the OG, Isetan of Singapore, selling various brands. The only thing different is that it is really cheap. I got 2 beverly hill polo club shirt at $12.99 each (I think this is of similar quality and more value for money as compared to Ralph Lauren, but u are paying for the horse when u buy Ralph Lauren), got a pair of Levi canvas shoes at $24.70. They really do have many brands there but i've bought too many clothing during my trip here (still way less than the female half of the population).

I remember this being in one of my marketing case study. It's so good to see the topic for ur case studies in real life...Walmart, Payless ShoeSource, Victoria's Secret etc

I think my mom will finally stop nagging at me to take care of my wardrobe and appearance. It's not that i dun appreciate nice clothes and fashion, but i just find them not worth the money, especially since my book list is ever increasing...and clothing really falls way below books.

Mark the Shopper (I am totally in over my head)

PS: I am finding it very hard to resist buying clothes now. Bought an old navy shirt cos i though the quality was very good and it cost only $6.99. I hope it does not become an addiction:(
