Inatake ako ng kakuriputan kahapon.

I went to Greenhills to have the oil painting I bought from the Lighthouse exhibit in Batanes framed.

There are a few stalls there selling art and they also frame mirrors and paintings.

The owner passed away recently.  She was only 54, cancer.

The owner of the neighboring store took over the store upon the pakiusap of the husband.   The remaining paintings are on consignment.

Greenhills painting

I chose a wooden frame, and because the painting is 3 ft x 4 ft, the frame alone would cost almost P7,000.

I chose a simple frame,  P3,500 I didn’t like it  that much.

Yung plastic naman daw eh P2,000,  pero pangit naman.

I like the one that’s P7,000 pero I found that expensive considering that  I  paid P7,000 for the painting.  (P13,000 less discount). Eh di parang nadoble na.

Frame store owner—— “Si mam naman, ipagawa mo na, tamang-tama kailangan namin ang pera pambayad ng upa dito sa pwesto,  kunin mo na rin yang mga paintings,  gives.  Kilala mo si _____ ?

Omb———————- “Hindi”.

FSO———————– “President ng ______ Bank.  Gives yan kung kumuha dito,  ano mam ideliver ko na sa inyo, kasabay nitong ipa-frame mo”.

Omb——————– “Ayokong may utang, marami na akong utang, ayokong dagdagan”.

Omb——————- “Ang mahal pala, paki balot na lang uli, saka ko na lang ipapa-frame”.
