The above is my latest credit e-bill. About 3 hours ago V and I had dinner at Sun With Moon in Wheelock. It was a long time since we had dinner there and probably the first Japanese meal since we came back from Tokyo. The total bill came to $49.

The $700 Hong Kong bill was shared with V for three different pairs of sunglasses and spectacle frames. It was having a sale hence the splurge.

Apple Ginza took $1.2K from me. That's for 4 iPod nanos. It's cheaper (by about $50) in Tokyo compared to the RecommendedRetailPrice in Singapore. Not mine.

Magasin General APC was from APC of course. The total price for my New Standards and a pair of Nike + APC tennis shoes was $340. Not too bad considering that frontrow takes in direct from france and it's more expensive in euros. I'm so pleased with my first pair of selvage jeans. I think I will get my sister (who is presently in Edinburgh with my mum) to buy a pair of Nudie jeans for me. I hated wearing jeans in my teenage years right until I was in uni. I guess I am making up for lost time.

At Narita Airport Terminal, I bought myself a T-shirt. Something that I can remember Japan by. Do want to visit the country again. That must be one of my most expensive t-shirt at $50.

Baize| China One was for the part of the ship's dinner bill. Not mine. But it's almost a thousand!

NYDC at Wheelock. Dinner. It's so expensive because I over ordered. Shouldn't have gotten the chicken wings.

That's alot of money spent on my AMEX card. But only about 1/3 or less is actually my own expenses.

Still nobody has noticed that the credit card doesn't have any signatures. So whenever they turn it around to verify the signature, it's all for show.

Sounds like a really fun trip. I love Tokyo but the shopping and eating always gets a little out of hand...

I was using my credit card this way (without a signature) for years before a salesperson finally insisted on it! Amazing.

TKS: Tokyo was really fun!

CSC: I am wondering if I should sign it cause it might potentially save me from a whole lot of trouble.
