Shopping, it means throw a money to buy something what we like. Place for shopping usually in
Mall. In mall, we can get many thing that we want. But the price is higher than market.
Really I like shopping very much. For example, someone asked me. Which one I choose
shopping or travelling? Really, I prefer shopping than travelling. Sometimes if I have no money
about me. I go to the mall for window shopping not for shopping. Shopping can make our brain
become fresh. We forget our problem and we get something more precious, ex: we get a new dress,
T-shirt. I love shopping very much.

In my opinion, shopping is ot hte most favourite activities for women. Especially rich
women, but it is not a mistakeif men doing shopping. Everyone has a job. They will get salary
from their job, and the capacity or quality of their shopping will be seen from their income. For
example, the director of TRANS TV studio and a bus driver.
The director will get shopping. He may go to mall, or places that has better quality.
Otherwise, the bus driver will look for simple places that has cheaper price, simple quality.
Every place, area, nationality has a different price, and quality.
In our family, we are seldom taking shopping.
I have a friend who like shopping. Nearly, she just took shop some shoes, skirt, shirt, in the fact,
she, last week was shopping for the same accesories.

Most of women like shopping very much. It is so different with me. I like shopping, but
it is not too much. It is not my hobby. It is so interseting enough to do but I am not too crazy a
doing that kind of thing. As a woman, I absolutely has a duty to be good at shopping. I am not
very good at doing such a way and I do not hate it too. Furthermore, I think I can take something
from doing such thing, that is “shopping”. I can how to do offer the things I want to buy with the
lowest prices and inn all aspects of my life everyday. I can do that kind of thing as an
entertainment in plaza where there is a large discount-clothes for example.
Overall, I just wanna say something to you related to this case, “shopping”. We, as a
woman, should learn many things from this time/moment. We have to gain as much knowledge
as possible especially all things related to the women’s belonging, duties, and neccessities at this
present time and absolutely at the future. As we know, the more we search about something, the
more we know about it. The more we know about that something, the more we are lucky in our
life. So, let’s make shopping as a positive thing in our life.

women. All women like shopping. They like buy something as dress, t-shirt, etc.
Shopping, it means throw a money to buy something what we like. Place for shopping usually in
Mall. In mall, we can get many thing that we want. But the price is higher than market.
Really I like shopping very much. For example, someone asked me. Which one I choose
shopping or travelling? Really, I prefer shopping than travelling. Sometimes if I have no money
about me. I go to the mall for window shopping not for shopping. Shopping can make our brain
become fresh. We forget our problem and we get something more precious, ex: we get a new dress,
T-shirt. I love shopping very much.

In my opinion, shopping is ot hte most favourite activities for women. Especially rich
women, but it is not a mistakeif men doing shopping. Everyone has a job. They will get salary
from their job, and the capacity or quality of their shopping will be seen from their income. For
example, the director of TRANS TV studio and a bus driver.
The director will get shopping. He may go to mall, or places that has better quality.
Otherwise, the bus driver will look for simple places that has cheaper price, simple quality.
Every place, area, nationality has a different price, and quality.
In our family, we are seldom taking shopping.
I have a friend who like shopping. Nearly, she just took shop some shoes, skirt, shirt, in the fact,
she, last week was shopping for the same accesories.

Most of women like shopping very much. It is so different with me. I like shopping, but
it is not too much. It is not my hobby. It is so interseting enough to do but I am not too crazy a
doing that kind of thing. As a woman, I absolutely has a duty to be good at shopping. I am not
very good at doing such a way and I do not hate it too. Furthermore, I think I can take something
from doing such thing, that is “shopping”. I can how to do offer the things I want to buy with the
lowest prices and inn all aspects of my life everyday. I can do that kind of thing as an
entertainment in plaza where there is a large discount-clothes for example.
Overall, I just wanna say something to you related to this case, “shopping”. We, as a
woman, should learn many things from this time/moment. We have to gain as much knowledge
as possible especially all things related to the women’s belonging, duties, and neccessities at this
present time and absolutely at the future. As we know, the more we search about something, the
more we know about it. The more we know about that something, the more we are lucky in our
life. So, let’s make shopping as a positive thing in our life.
