Guess List Card

I bought a purse from Guess last Sunday and the cashier asked me if I have a Guess card. I said no and I queried on how I can get one. She said she could sign me up. After a few mins, voila! I have my new Guess List Card.

Haha, excuse my kababawan. But I really love getting store cards. Aside from the points, syempre panlagay sa wallet haha!

I miss all my cards in the Philippines. Lahat yata ng cards noon meron ako, sobrang bulging tuloy ang wallet ko.

Seriously, each new card that I get here in Canada means that little by little, nai-incorporate na talaga sa akin ang buhay dito. Iba na talaga ang buhay ko -- hindi na SM Advantage Card, Air Miles na.

It's been one year and four months since I moved here. Ambilis talaga ng araw. My son and I are going 'home' in Pinas in June or July. Excited na ako. We'll be staying there for four to five months. Sana magamit ko pa uli yung mga cards na naiwan ko. Not for the points or freebies, gusto ko lang din kasi ang idea na may babalikan pa ako. =)

Minimalist (for now)

This basically describes my life now.

I realized, kaya ko naman palang mag-survive with just a few stuff and a little space.

We are currently dwelling in a studio type building apartment here in the Downtown area. Ford has been living in this place (although he already changed rooms three times) ever since he landed in Canada in December 2009. We have actually already 'bought" (i.e. paid down payment) a town house last year but we are still waiting for advise as to when it will be turned over to us. We are hoping that we can move there by January 2014.

So now we have no choice but to stay in this small bachelor's suite. We even rented a storage just to free some space. Imagine, my bedroom in our Philippine home is a lot bigger than this. I am not complaining though, just saying. Hehe.

If truth be told, I was NEVER a minimalist. I am a collector, a shopper, a hoarder. I love to be surrounded with so many things. So this is a huge adjustment for me.

Hay, I can't wait to transfer in our new home so I can be myself again. Though minimalism is ok, I think I would still go by my old lifestyle.
