(ok this is a pretty materialistic post)
Recently Janis and I have been around shopping for stuff. While usually its her that buys shoes, bags, accessories or whatnot, I noticed that I have been giving the cash box that *ding*. Now, with my salary, I cant usually afford buying something every month because I'm also trying to save up for nothing and everything (you know, just to save). whateverBut with the recent activity of peso bills entering and leaving my wallet, I've been both conscious (sp?) and guilty that I bought some stuff. I actually bought stuff! Not that I have a lot cash coming in, but it's a bit surprising that I can afford some of the stuff I want and need. *gosh*
So as always, one can never get enough - but still, one has needs. And as far as I know, I can still differentiate what I want from what I need. ~Shameless plug (hey this is my blog): So if you want to help me, pass on a web design project my way. I've been meaning to do a side line project ever since I started designing! Brochure-type web pages, flyers, posters, what ever! :P
Anyway, for the proud boy in me, here are some of the stuff I bought this month. Mind you I don't have a credit card and don't plan to get one. And please, my salary isn't that high so if these things are 3-for-100 type of things for you...hmm...whatever!
Nike [co+lab] Tenmyouya Hisashi shirt
I was a bit apprehensive to buy a co+lab shirt at first because they were a tad expensive and I didnt really like the early designs that I saw. It didnt even help that they were in metal cases which remind me of mister donut freebies back in the day like tin cans that can double as metal cases. But when I picked up this apple green can that was warped as hell and looked at the design, I couldn't believe it. It was this classic oriental print portraying this humongous bird of prey over an ancient even prehistoric land. I don't actually know the story behind this illustration but it just blows me away. Lucky I got a better can and the exact size I wanted.
