Drink!

As it’s been spreading all over the internet, apparently, the  last day of 2023 is a rarity. 

That’s the numerical equivalent of December 31, 2023.

Time to bring in some Sia and 1-2-3-1-2-3 drink.

We won’t be swinging from chandeliers. But it;s going to be a fun New Year’s Eve!

Moschino's lost sibling

Apparently, this brand has a relative in the Philippines that it doesn't know about.

Behold, the bag I saw at The Landmark.

Definitely a distant relative.

Wake up feeling like a million bucks!

That must be how it feels to wake up on this bed.

Yup, the bed is a million bucks. Literally. P1,000,000! You can find it at the 4th floor of Shangrila Mall in case you need to see what a million peso bed looks like.

If I had this bed, I probably won't get out of it under any circumstance. Hahaha.

Positioning is everything

I saw this article on yahoo today, and couldn't help but notice that the writer looks like she's ogling at Phillip Phillips.

I'm not sure if the positioning was an accident or if it was premeditated, but I think the overall effect looks very clever.

Merchandising is everything

So I was at the Fully Booked branch in SM Megamall Fashion Hall when my eyes were drawn to a bag tag display area at one corner of the store.

I'd love to say that I was drawn to the area because of the fabulous tags on display, but I can't. 

Here's the reason why:

Seriously, what was the merchandising display person thinking?

There's something for everyone in Tokyo

Heck, even cross dressers have their own cafe!

Only in Tokyo.

Super Odd

There's this statue of Superman at Toy Kingdom in SM Makati that's a bit off kilter. Ever since I saw it a few weeks ago, I've been constantly bothered by it. There's something quite odd about this replica.



Superman is supposed to be the man of steel. He's confident, strong and heroic. But if you look at the face of this statue, it's anything but.



I'm not sure what look they're going for. Is it "Super clueless," "Super dumb," "Super sleepy," "Super puyat," or maybe even "Super constipated."

Whatever it is, it's super odd.

By any other name

After meeting with my florist on a wedding I'm organizing this December, she gave me a cabbage rose that she imported from Europe.



Unlike the usual cabbage roses, this one really looks like a cabbage. As in, the vegetable! All you need to do is step back, and you'll know what I mean.



If you look at it from the side, it looks like your regular, green, leafy vegetable. It looks like it. And it smells like it, too. If you don't tell people what it is, they'll most likely put this flower in a salad bowl and not in a flower vase.



On my way home, people kept on asking me what this flower was. I even heard remarks like: "Ano yung hawak niya? Repolyo?"


Well, I can't blame them. This cabbage rose does look like the love child of a cabbage and a rose.

But hey, it's still a rose.

Little Oddities

There's this habit i'm beginning to develop. I take all the coins out of my pocket and arrange them by value and size: $10s, $5s, $2s, $1s... then arrange them in one straight line on my hand. After looking at it for a few seconds, it goes back to my pocket.

Needless to say, they all go back in a state of disarray when they land inside. So, after a few hours, I take them out of my pocket and do it all over again.

===============

I'm wearing these really nice American Eagle cargo pants I got at Wan Chai. It's a low-rise pair which is quite unusual, and that's the source of attraction for me. It has two buttons up front, and a lot of details around the belt area.

The only problem is, because the waist is so low, the zipper is very, very short. And that makes it harder for me to pee. Instead of just pulling down the fly, I have to unbutton the pair before I can do number 1.

It made me begin to wonder that this might be a girl's pair of pants. But the size is in inches (31) as opposed to numbers (0-2-4-6), and the buttons are on the right -- so it's made for a guy. But why is the fly so short? Hmmm... I don't think I even want to go to there.

================

I've been having dreams about people and friends who I haven't seen in ages. Last night, it was Prex who has in it. (Which might qualify it as a nightmare. Hehehe.) Wonder what that means?
