I say let’s turn ‘im on… who’s with me?
There are so many jokes and captions one can come up with after seeing the picture that it’s giving me a headache.
Matthew 19:14
Trinoma
When Cris, Pia, and I went to Shangri-la [mall] last year to get my birthday gift, I noticed a compact Eagle-Creek Koala toiletry bag.
Knowing me; Mr. pack-rat utilities guy, it was the sort of product I knew would be useful (moreover, I would have use for) in the future. But I just brushed off the idea since I didn’t need it at that moment.
Sure enough, while trying to maximize available luggage space for our choir’s upcoming trip, I couldn’t use my clunky old Nike toiletry bag. The first thing that I thought was “I need to get that bag I saw last year!”
You know how it usually goes; how the universe usually conspires against someone in their quest for something. And you know that I never quit unless I have good reason to… thus began the journey to find the elusive Koala toiletry kit.
Oh and before you proceed, be warned that there are a lot of useless trivia and pics here… I’m just looking for an excuse to post some photos from my iPhone.
My favorite drink
In the past the easy answer would be Coca Cola. It didn’t end there; it had to be in a glass bottle – none of that can or vendo crap; the spirit and taste are totally different across these mentioned as well as other Coke variants.
I used to drink it like water. I even remember my yaya literally setting aside a 1L bottle for me and telling everyone else that we’re out of Coke, just so I could still have some when I wanted.
But after college, that all stopped; naturally for what my Mom claimed to be health reasons. I never really thought about what “beverage” took on the title of my favorite simply because I never was a person to look for a specific beverage since then.
Now though, I can honestly say the void has been filled:
Slipper talk
After 2 long years, my colorful Nike flip-flops finally hit the bucket. I guess that last beach trip we had was too much for it to handle.
So Cris and I went shopping for a new pair in Rustans. After much ado, I decided on these black Cobian El Cap sandals:
Remembering Valentine’s
I only got to scan this recently:
It’s a letter Cris made when she had nothing else to do in the their faculty room this last V-day. She repurposed a Mother’s Day card from a magazine.
Yes, apparently, it’s a letter by me – made by her. Given to me – to give to her. Try wrapping your head around that cuz that’s exactly how it goes.
