How was my Weekend ?

Very good.

The weekend was indeed a blast! It was busy and tiring but enjoyable. The exhaustion was nothing compared to the hype it did me.

It was surprising that I did something personal, family, business, friends and religious-wise. Beat that! Haha!

The day started with me waking up late, around 8:30 am. This is what I like about Saturday mornings, I can wake up late with no one to bother me, and I can get that extra zzzz's without pressure! And nothing to think about except rest and recreation...(unlike weekdays). I got up, washed my face and ate breakfast. My mom called saying that my brother has a problem with his jaw, so I immediately made a way to contact them both for a meet up(Mom's at the office, Bro's at their bunker at work). Then, it was done. Then I remembered an errand my Dad told me to do, so after a little chat with our Ate's at home, I showered, dressed and went out to the streets in shorts and slippers. The usual Writer's clothing style. Simple but classy.

Then its off to Pasig for the errand. I went to a customer to get a payment for a product order. Then that done! So its off to personal! Since I'm at Pasig, I didn't bother going to other far malls. So I settled for SM Megamall. ( Shangri-la's not a choice for me for buying something essential, its a hang out place for me) So there I went. I actually have four things in mind that I need to buy.

1. Office Bag
2. Flash Drive
3. Khaki Pants
4. Pair of leather shoes

Due to monetary contraints, and its not payday you know, I just settled for the first two in the list. So I went off to find an office bag. And the qualifications for that bag are the following; number 1) it must not be a sports bag again, number 2) casual looking, number 3) fits with any attire I wear, number 4) must be one of its kind and not ordinary, and finally, the most important consideration of all...number 5) reasonably priced. After visiting Speedo, Toby's, Planet Sports, Human, Penshoppe, Surf World, Fila and the department store, I finally decided to get a bag from American Boulevard.

And the bag is....

The Lucky Pick since its basically reasonably priced.

I don't know, but for me, its the perfect bag. Its a backpack made of cotton cloth. Not only that, since I was friendly with saleslady who assisted me, she gave me an extra!

Extra Bag, that is!

So its settled! I got item number one. So its off to number two.

Since I was meeting my sister at Greenhills at around 2:00pm, I just bought a couple sandwiches at Mcdonalds and ate a quick lunch at a carinderia along EDSA, in front Robinson's Galleria. Mind you, their barbequed pork is good! And its only 25 pesos for a set. On that moment, I reminisced back the college days at UST; the same priced lunch I eat everytime at Dapitan. So then off to Greenhills.

Even though its junk, its still a favorite of mine

I met my sister there, and accompanied her since she'll be buying an 80 GB IPod Classic as a prize for herself because of her small business. Good for her. So there, we were browsing around the stalls, asking for prices of the gadget. The average price seems to be at 10,000 bucks but after a bit of haggling and some drama we set up, we got her video and music player at 9,150 pesos. Hmm...good enough. So after a tiring endeavor, I invited her at Krispy Kreme for a quick snack since she'll be going to her chorale practice too and I'm gonna meet a college friend. I bought her a half dozen donuts, of which one of the piece I ate..I just can't help myself with these donuts. And after getting the donuts from the counter, I escorted her to that taxi stand, and exchanged goodbyes.

The Gadget and yeah, she choose the color black.

Then at the same venue, Greenhills, I met a college friend. We just hung around, exchanged stories, looked at gadgets, ogled at the latest versions IPods and Mac notebooks. He accompanied me to buy a flash drive at CD-R King. Item number two, erased from the list. Then at 5:00pm in the afternoon, he left to meet his girlfriend.

Don't you think this blog can earn on product advertisements?

So, I'm off by myself again. I thought I'd buy myself snacks before I go home. So I went to Robinson's Galleria, not to shop, but to buy cheese flavored french fries at Potato Corner. Man, I just can't help eating this! I bought a large bag. And by the way, they give free iced tea! Then, its home time; rode the bus, slept for a bit along the way. I met my family at the village clubhouse, where they hear mass every Saturday afternoon. Fortunately, I came, not on time, but at least its not yet the end of the mass. After the mass, went home with my siblings and parents and end of day.

Woah. That was a blast! I was surprised myself that I wrote an entry this long. I do hope I get one of these weekends again.
