wheew.. just came from baguio..well, actually we've been back last tuesday afternoon. six of us, (me, zey, faith, rix, tin and shailoe spent almost two days in baguio.. our reason? thesis. well, of course the thesis part took place for about half a day. and we spent the rest of it buying 'pasalubongs' for our classmates and looking for good stuff in the ubiquitous ukay-ukays there.. i can't believe there's a lot of it.
then something came up, we went to Lourdes grotto, (where i had my first 'candle' thing done,) and on the stores surrounding the area, we chanced upon this little store where i bought jam (coz my father loves it). and then when i was about to leave, i saw this hello kitty doll inside and i went closer towards it. you see, i'm not really a fan of hello kitty, but i saw cherries on top of her head and i said "hey guys, look, it has cherries on top, cute" and then i took it and showed it off to my friends. and then when i looked closer i noticed that the school-uniform kitty's wearing was the EXACT duplicate of my high school uniform.. i laughed my head off. i just got to have it. it screams my name. and now my friends call it 'the cherry kitty'. weird huh?
well, back to ukay-ukays. i have to admit it was my first time. and it was fun. everything's such a bargain.! who could have thought that a jacket could be as cheap as 50 pesos? hmmm.. we stayed at shailoe's lodging house and had lots (and lots) of fun. the sad thing was, we had so many things to do waiting for us back in manila. and here i am, researching for the nth time. and losing it. grrr..
talk about work overload. there's the much anticipated taxation, the overwhelming interviews, documentaries, tv programs and magazines that has to be done. all before sem break..
sheessh... i gotta go, it's helmy's time.. late na naman kami..!
