Buying my 1st Bra
Posted in Been There Did It, Family, Now I Know, Understanding Gals on July 31st, 2007It’s always cool to do things tat we’ve never done b4 in life. Well there are so many, like the 1st time we pee on our pants, 1st time we had a dream and woke up very wet but it’s not pee, 1st time we caught our lil’ bro’s skin on the flyers, ahh~ all the sweet memories and the list just goes on.
Here’s another 1 on the list. Stheng shared with us tat there’s this sale on La Senza, well for gals i’m not sure whether u are supposed to know but for guys out there, it’s actually a lingerie brand.
It really sounds like a popular brand yet i’ve not heard off (seems like a lingerie education is getting on me lately, just gotta know bout Wacoal few weeks back). And so i thought, why not get 1 of it! Hmm.. since i dun wear it, why not get 1 for some1 tat wears it, who else better than my mom..
And so i sms-ed her to get really really essential information. It went something like this:
Ma, there’s a good sales on bra, everybody is talking about it & i was thinking of getting u 1
so u can feel it too. Is it okay?
Was kinda nervous sending these kinda sms, not sure how the respond will be. Less than 1 minute later, ma replied:
Size is 36 * cup.
Come on, dun u expect me to reveal so much on my mom’s, but goodness~!! I was laughing nutz when i saw ma’s reply. She gave her good consent for me to choose a bra for her, i felt truly truly honoured.
And so there i was, picking a bra for my mom. It wasn’t easy, i really really do not know wat kinda design ma likes, whether shud i go for the one with striking colour or laces. All most of the time, i was trying to put myself in Pa’s shoes, the design and colour tat he would like to see. Erm.. tat’s wat a bra design is for isn’t it?!
Half way through, i saw a familiar face walking in the shop. I’m not sure whether to reveal her identity but wat’s wrong seeing a familiar face in a bra shop? No problem with tat i guess. But I felt kinda shy cuz i barely know her and she might have this impression tat i’m a pervert sicko buying a bra for myself. A wave and a smile and it’s back to bra hunting.
It took around 15 minutes to go thru the basket of bras, and to finally come out with a shortlist of 4. Seems like ma’s size is quite popular as there are quite a number out of it with tat measurement, as compared to other measurements.

Forest Light Blue / Brown, Beach Pinky / Greenie. Hmm, i kinda liked all of them, but i knew i gotta decide and not be flower hearted over them all. And again, I drilled into pa’s mind and see through his eyes. It wasn’t easy, but i made a choice. Which bra did KuKuJian bought as his 1st bra?
Guess..
A wild one..
Come on stop scrolling down..
Pick 1 now~!
Well, i knew u were stubborn, and so i’ll just give up and be nice..
my 1st bra..

Did i make the right choice? Well when i passed it to ma just now, i accidentally let pa saw it, and he went:
Ma got so big one meh?
To prove her fullnest, ma did a quick demo and cupped the bra on her breast, with her clothes on lah. And gave tat “u see, can fit mah” look to pa.
It made my day..
ps: and it was also my 1st time really understanding the structure of a push-up bra. They have an additional piece of something at the lower half of the cup. And now tat’s where all the wonders starts from.
