--- Our First Anniversary ---

For our first anniversary, we did not plan anything big. I am too busy at work and Xtian does not want to go anywhere. So to mark it as a special day, we went out with my family. My dad has not been to the mall after his diagnosis. We were off early. Both me and Xtian came from our respective shifts. We decided to go to Trinoma. It was almost lunch time when we arrived at the mall. We rented a wheelchair for daddy so it will be easier to move around. Too bad Trinoma does not provide one for their customers... the rent is steep! 75 pesos per hour! We wanted to eat somewhere we haven't tried before. My sister insisted on eating at a Japanese resto but I know Xtian is not a big fan of Japanese food unless it involves ramen or sukiyaki. Good thing, we passed by Cyma.

Let's have the pictures do the talking, shall we...

My sister took this picture of the menu.. Hmmm.. what to eat!

Since I was starving, I asked the waiter to recommend a salad. She recommended the Roka Salad. See mama getting ready to attack it!

Mommy talking to Andie at the phone.. She is based in Iloilo.. So we just called her.

Now mama attacked it... Pinipili ang walnuts.. huy!

It has been a long time since we had a family day like this... Eating out plus shopping and ending with grocery shopping. I love grocery shopping more than shopping shopping... hehehe.. I always think of the what to prepare for the coming weeks. Stocking on the essentials is fun as well.

Crazy crazy Forever 21 sale!

Last 16 October 2010, me, my mom and Andie headed off to SM Megamall to check out the Forever 21 sale. We were supposed to meet up with Sharleen but some changes happened so she was left out.

We arrived at SM Megamall around 11AM. We went straight to Forever 21. My sister kept on saying that she needs to go to St. Francis Square afterward to get some clothes for herself. When we got to the shop... OMG! There are people around... Ladies, women, young girls... grabbing clothes, going through the racks... it was crazy. I have been to 3-day sales and I expected it to be full of people but I haven't seen anything like it. It was chaotic! People were already fitting the clothes right there and then since the line for the fitting rooms was crazy!

We spent a good two hours I guess inside the store. I got myself a new pair of jeans. My mom got herself two pair of pants. My sister.. Hmm... I don't know how many stuff she got. We got my sisterette a really nice romper... a couple of spandex shirts. The sale is worth it if you will be buying sooooooo many stuff since it was 10% off on all regularly priced items but if you went there to buy just an item or two... forget it! I think I save a near 1000 pesos on all the things I got. Not bad!

This is the crazy crazy line for the cashier! Can you see the end of it?

Ahem.. ahem... mama.. enough with the picking.... overbudget already!

see how the line of heads turns... that is almost the end of the line!
