monday
lakwatsa day with ycel. meet-up in front of greenhills shopping center at 11am and good news is i wasn't late! i arrived on time. i even had time to go to the chapel and say a little prayer. lunch at le ching too, cos i thought they also have lemon chicken short orders or something like that but they only have dimsum- which was sort of a disappointment for us (or maybe just me cos i was really really hungry already). you know, wai ying may not be the most aesthetically appealing but they are one of the best chinese food places in the metro; personally, i think they have the best hakao and the best lemon chicken. started our shopping for ycel's stuff and we must have went through every nook and cranny in the whole greenhills complex and we only found less than ten articles of clothing... i think. after going through tiangge aisles one last time, we took a taxi going to shang.to find the perfect pair of red shoes for ycel because she failed to find one that strikes her fancy in greenhills. poor ycel was already grimacing in pain- her feet were already aching because she had uncomfortable slippers on. she bought a pair of red shoes alright though she just settled for them. she also got a pair of cute espadrilles. i so wanted this nail polish color from orly and i paid a visit in rustan's to see if they have it already- wala pa rin. nail polish heaven but i can't bloody believe how a frickin' 15ml bottle of color can cost P800+ i was thinking if i were to buy an P800 bottle of nail polish for personal use, that would be unwise and if i were to buy it for my shop, i don't think my clients would pay additional 100 pesos for it. oh well. dinner at c2- yummy in my tummy!
we walked all the way to megamall to get on our respective "rides" - ycel in her biyaheng quiapo fx and me in my biyaheng santolan. classy, no? haha.
tuesday
back to reality. did my shop's laundry and because of that, just stayed at home the whole day cos my body was aching from all that kuskos-piga. ay piga lang pala. thanks to our handy dandy washing machine that doesn't drain water- you have to scoop the water out or turn it over to get the water out. i swear there's some kind of energy black hole in this house cos everything seems to break easily. stayed at home to continue my secret garden marathon while doing legit online research for expansion plans.wednesday
sent labels for printing and yousendit was excruciatingly slow. must have spent almost the entire day sending files cos i can only send one file at a time being that i only use the free version. online research na lang uli. plus secret garden marathon. ang galing ko gumawa ng excuse, ano?thursday
my client added 40pcs more to her order- yay! and so i have to pay a visit to my supplier. hitched a ride with my bro-in-law going to supplier and just took the lrt going home. i am so much in ♥ with the lrt right now, how it makes my life soooo much easier. got off at sle to pay my sister's card. a trip to national book store to buy a one-hole puncher. i so wanted to buy new pens but i was able to stop myself cos i already have quite a number of pens at home. one step at a time, eq, one step at a time ;)friday
at rome to finish do additional order. then to the printer to pick up labels. started my job as a cutting machine- manually cutting labels. sorry naman at naeenjoy ko talagang gumupit ng papel haha. effect ata ito ng napanuod ko sa batibot dati. was supposed to deliver this weekend but because that seems impossible as i am not yet done with them, so moved delivery date on tuesday instead.and oh, the new maid arrived. hallelujah!
saturday
i was supposed to finish my order in the morning then rex manning in the afternoon, but jo sent me a text early in the morning to ask if i'm free for lunch. i really wanted to beg off this time but i guess i also really wanted to get out of this house... two lakwatsas in a week- not good. lunch at italianni's in rp- complimentary foccacia bread dipped in olive oil, vinegar and parmesan cheese, calamari, ceasar salad and grilled pork chop. all that for two persons. how gluttonous, ya? gallivant around the mall then went to one of my favorite places in manila- divisoria. bought speckles that i wanted to add sana to my sanitizers but turned out they aren't the same speckles. boo.going home time! it was raining real hard so napabili ako ng payong ng di oras. drat. now i have my own foldable payong with uber cute design. the streets were already flooded when i went outside and this is divisoria, my love, so i just can't tampisaw, y'know. normally, i wouldn't take a pedicab/kuliglig because 1) i fear for my life and, 2) they charge exorbitant rates, but i got on one to the tune of 70 pesos. not bad.
and so i got home safe and sound and still alive~ turns out it still wasn't the end of the world.
sunday
daddy's birthday! was supposed to attend mass at padre pio church but didn't get to go with them as i had to prepare stuff. lunch at savory in hypermart then dessert at starbucks in eastwood mall. with the babies! :) i ♥ starbuck's 5-cheese turnover. after mass, dinner at AD's with mommy, daddy and KB and family. life is good ☺i repeat- life is good. you just have to believe it to see it. i just have to remind myself that better days are yet to come whenever i'm having crappy days. i remember reading this off a batchmate's website- that's she's having a sucky day but she's still praising God cos she used to have sucky years. and on that note, i praise and thank God for not giving me sucky years. life is good.
