shopping and wishful thinking

Just got a much-needed wardrobe update for my so-called corporate life. Haha. Corporate life, my ass. Whatever.

Got a couple of tops and a pair of black kitten-heeled Mary Janes earlier. Care of Mama's credit card of course. I definitely don't have any money to spare as of the moment but I really need something appropriate for the office--denim jeans aren't exactly what you'd call office wear.

Anywho, the real reason we went to MOA was to buy Ninong a laptop. He's using Mama's credit card and my technical knowledge to get the best possible deal. Haha. But he got a right pretty laptop at HP anyway and he was happy as the proverbial kid at Christmas morn.

Reminds me, the last time I felt that giddy over a gadget was when I replaced my iPod last year. And the way things are going at the moment, it'll be a pretty long time before I feel that way again--I have no money to speak of to buy any gadget. And the gadget I'm lusting over right now--the Canon EOS 450D--isn't even officially released here in the Philippines, but for sure it's gonna cost an arm and a leg. For someone broke like me at least. So there you go.
