Sale Ba Kamo?

NOTE: I want to emphasize that I'm not an impulsive buyer. Now, I can proceed with my entry.


Long weekends have a way of enticing people to make plans for short trips and getaways. While city dwellers were flocking to their respective hometowns, I made an "emergency" trip to a nearby province by my lonesome. My Saturday class was cancelled because my professor was on an out-of-town trip. Instead of taking a bus ride home, I made a detour which brought me to my favorite shopping place in the region.

I wasn't there to splurge since I only had a few in my wallet. I just wanted to relax a bit and have some quality time with myself. :) Little did I know that almost all the shops had this huge red tag on its glass windows. And you know this is something that a girl finds hard to resist.

I rarely go out by myself. It's either I'm with family or with my significant other. However, there is something quite liberating about doing things your way. The thought that no one was there to dissuade me from making a purchase, or no one would make me feel guilty about lusting over an outrageously expensive item made me feel that for once, I am in control.

I hopped from one store to another, patiently scouring their racks for items that would fit my personal style and most importantly, my limited budget. I found so many lovely pieces but I just had to let go of some. If they're meant for me, they'd still be there on my next visit.

Can't wait!
