September 12, Thursday 6 pm

The PCCI Membership Meeting was held at the SMX Convention, SM Aura in Taguig City.
I initially thought the meeting would be done by 6:00 pm yun pala it’s up to 9 pm.
Meron pa silang fellowship. I left at about 6 pm a few minutes before Senator Bam Aquino ended his speech.

I got off the car at the opposite side of SMX, on the other end of the building on basement 1. That’s where I should exit so my driver would remember. Too risky to change venue or else the chances of my driver not knowing where to pick me up would be higher.

My walk was slow, kasi I was looking at some of the window displays.  It was my first time here. Maka pag window shopping nga.

The mall is medium in size, maybe the size of Eastwood Mall.

I stopped walking when I saw the Samsung store.

Sales lady, Angelie, tried to teach me how to use my Samsung Galaxy camera.
I used the word tried because her sample shots were blurred too. But she knew the technical terms but in actual application, medyo…blurry.

To show my appreciation for her patience and willingness to teach me how to use my camera,  I bought the leather  camera case she offered.

I was thinking maybe with the case strap around my neck, it would be easier to pull out my camera especially when I am travelling. Pangpa-dagdag ng kalat sa bag.
I showed this to Edmund when I got home and told him I found it expensive at P1,590.
He said “Tart naman, okay na yun, gagamitin mo naman”.
Ang problema, tila hindi ko rin magagamit kasi nga pampasikip sa bag (hmmm buyer’s remorse).

This is the best looking Watsons store I’ve seen so far.

I should be going to the mall every afternoon to walk, as a form of exercise according to my doctor Kuya Junior. But I am not able to do it.
At mahirap yan ha, pati wallet ko ma-e-exercise.

I bought this navy blue dress from Jessica at the Podium, a few months ago but I only got to wear it today.
Two female officers from Philexport went to the mall before the meeting started because they were feeling very cold. When they came back, I saw one wearing a scarf and the other one with a white blazer. Ako naman, init na init kasi my dress’ material is wool. Tila pang winter.

There’s a Pinkberry right in the middle of the hallway. P135 Yogurt (without any topping) is more expensive than ice cream. Dapat hindi.

I went down to the basement because that’s where I got off the car. Nasulyapan ko etong kitchen wares store. Malapit ng matapos kitchen namin, 50% na lang. Naengganyo akong tumingin ng mga kaldero.
I like that white one.

Pasok ako…
Me———- “Excuse me, Miss, magkano yang white?”
She looked at me, parang hesitant to say the price.
Miss——– “Fourteen thousand……”
Me———- “Oh wow, ang mahal naman. Anong nagagawa nya bakit ang mahal?”
Miss——– “kasi para na rin syang slow cooker”.
Me———- “Ah okay, thank you”.

Fourteen thousand pesos na lumalagutok. Kung italbog mo ang tilapia at pagnaluto ay biglang nagiging Chilean Seabass, buy na tayo agad.

She probably told herself- “I knew it, hindi sya bibili”.

I like the color, not the price.
