Good PR, Bad PR

I absolutely hate being pushed around. This morning, like any other morning, I climbed aboard an fx van to go to work. One of the "barkers" suddenly opened the door and asked us to transfer to the cab, I ran like crazy because I wanted the front seat like the van only to have them ask us to go back to the van once we settled into the cab. God I was annoyed. Another person was already seated in the front seat. I get claustrophobic when I'm squished in the middle hence the need to secure the front seat. I ended up taking the MRT which I was glad to have taken since I read a lot of tweets saying that it was traffic despite the school vacation.

Back when I was in grade school, I found a high heeled shoe that looked nice in Shoe Salon, unfortunately it was a size too small for me. But the salesman managed to convince me by saying that it was the last pair they had and if I don't get it, sayang naman. An hour later after my purchase, I passed by Shoe Salon and saw the pair of shoes I bought being displayed again! Gah! I was tricked! I absolutely hated the feeling that I ended up never wearing the shoes. And up to this day, 10 years later, I have never ever bought a pair of shoes from Shoe Salon. I was deceived.

I will never shop from Shoe Salon ever. On a lighter note, I recently discovered and actually like Geleia in Trinoma - recently purchased a Melissa + Isabela Capeto beige floral flats and I love their service. They took out all the colors in my size and had no complaints whatsoever even if I asked for other designs.

Needless to say, Geleia, I'll be back!


This would have been lovelier but they didn't have it yet. :(

When I go to a restaurant and ask for their best-seller, I hate it when waiters tell me "everything". Gah, the next time a waiter tells me everything, I will walk out of that restaurant.

I like restos that have bestseller icons, it helps streamline the choices.

When I try on clothes in a store and come out trying to look at the clothes from afar, I don't like it when the sales lady always says "Bagay sa iyo"(It suits you) and to all the clothes I will fit. What's worse if they say it's nice when it looks terrible!

if I love you and you treat me right, I will be loyal forever - Dorothy Perkins, Debenhams, Forever 21, H&M and Zara.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

How stuff works: Piso Bid anyone?

First of all, I am in no way, related to the owners of Pisobid.com at present (it's a small world after all) and I'm writing this blog because I like to analyze and figure out how things work :) I was reading through my Ymail when I saw this ad for Pisobid.com. The name caught my attention and all that was running through my mind was the thrill of bidding - Ebay alert hihihi. When the website opened, I saw that there were a lot of gadgets up for grabs, among the lot was an iPhone 4 which I really wanted but didn't have the heart to spend Php 40,000 for a cellphone. Upon closer inspection, they are giving away ipads, LV bags and GCs. Hmmmmm.... let's give it a try! I never did like reading instructions and policy agreements so I just purchased a 35 bids for Php 500 so that I can start bidding. It's actually pretty easy to bid, all it takes is a click of a button, money is gone. HAHAHA In the pisobid, you actually use real money to buy bid, in this case, 1 bid ...
