The Waiting Game..

Finally, I was able to visit SM Aura for the very 1st time.  The mall, by the way, is just a few minutes away from where I live.   If not for their 3-day sale which started last October 4 and ended today, October 6, I would have deferred my trip to some other weekend.  I was disappointed however when only a few of the high-end shops in there participated in what I term as "over 50% off" sale.  Nonetheless, my visit was not put in vain when I learned that Sony has a branch at the 4th floor of the mall.  I thought to myself, maybe this would be my chance to buy my most long-awaited phone...

I somehow expected to find a display of Sony Xperia Z1 at their store.  But then I already know that, that possibility would be remote considering that I heard nothing of any news of the recent launching of the latest product of Sony Xperia here in Metro Manila.  True enough, the salesman told me that the phone is not yet available.  To my dismay, I would have to wait for 1st week of November or perhaps on the 2nd week or who knows when.

I admit I'm getting tired of waiting.  I read from an internet article that Sony Xperia Z1 would be available here in the Philippines within the month of October.  It was already launched in Singapore last October 4 and earlier in Malaysia.  If Sony would have to postpone its launching here in the country, I'm afraid I might lose my appetite for the phone and probably shift my attention somewhere..

December Weather

I woke up to a cloudy morning today. Few minutes after, rain poured. I wondered then if there was an approaching typhoon. So, I checked online for a weather update, and here's what I got (see the image on the right side of this post):

I just love this cool weather.. especially on a weekend.. when I get to stay and enjoy home.  The soft gentle breeze blowing thru my window just hit me that Christmas season is now here to stay for at least a month.

I guess I should now start my Christmas countdown. Merry Christmas!!!  :)

I'm Expecting Another Electric Shock

Just when I thought that summer days were already over, I spent my recent weekend at home with the aircon striving to keep my condo unit cool all day and night.  In fact, when I left home this morning, I was so uncomfortable with the hot weather that I was almost tempted to take a leave of absence, stay home, and prolong my 3-day vacation with just another day.  Sigh... if only!

I wonder how much will my power consumption costs this time.  I guess I should consider again my deferred plan of buying a cooler fan.  Sigh again...

168 Shopping Galore

I might go to 168 Shopping Mall this weekend. That, I always say to myself every time I feel the urge to unwind somewhere away from my home. But until now, it has not been realized. Why? For one, it is so far from my place of residence. Second, I rather stay at my cool sanctuary than be a victim of El Niño phenomenon outside.

But then, I still long to go to 168. As I often say to my relatives and friends, if I would have to choose between Mall of Asia and 168, I would go for the latter.

Why 168? It is where my energy levels get high every time i buy great finds at great discounts. I guess I share the same sentiments as other women when it comes to shopping. Breezing through a flood of co-shoppers along the narrow pathways inside the mall is a challenging task which shopaholic women like me wouldn't mind taking.

So, will I be able to go to 168 Shopping Mall this weekend? I say, hopefully...
