Of Branded Bags

Image
Years ago I had a wake up call about branded bags. choose local! When we went to Paris, one on my list was to get an original designer bag straight from a French shop. Em and I  went around Champs-Elysees the whole morning only to find that the store was closed for renovation. The next available shop was at Rue Saint Honore', which took us the rest of the afternoon locating it, as you know the French building numbers assignment is a lot more confusing than you realize. When we finally located the shop they just declared that they are closed for the day. You can just imagine the big sigh I had that day. Our flight back home was the next afternoon so we had to be early the next day. The following day we were early - way too early had to walk around first before they open at 10AM. By the time they opened, we went inside but we were not the first ones as a few Asians were also waiting for the shop doors to open. I happily made the purchase and flew back home 6000 miles away....

well, hello!

Happy New Year! I'm ecstatic to start my 2017, just like the other new years. :D It gives me the feeling that I can choose anything I want to do this year! same as last years lol. Of course planning is the easiest part. Executing is well, hmmm. There's this guy named Procastination that's always in front of me. haha. So let's do the easiest ones first. Step 1. REVIEW THE PAST. Check all outdated stuff, old receipts, smelly stuff, molded stuff, OUT. Scan previous blogs, and repost if I still have the heart. LOL. Re-read old planners, organizers, and see what has been done, if it was all worth it and should i do it again? Step 2. CHECK THE PRESENT. This is the part where disorientation is an advantage. Asking these questions would appear healthy. Where am I? errr. Who am I? Crispin? Basilio? What are you to me? haha. How did I arrive here? by bus? by train? by mrt? with wings :) Step 3. GEAR UP FOR THE FUTURE. Take a piece of paper and pen. Ipad ...
