Happy feet! :)

Today (well, technically yesterday, November 30, 2012) is a proof that somehow planned activity can be realized IF ONLY there's a will. I don't know about you but I have noticed that planned activities have a 95% chance of not happening. Seriously.

Today must be the odd 5%. Glad it was.

We have long planned to visit a town in Calabarzon which is infamous of selling footwear at a very affordable price (well, affordability remains subjective. Since I have not received my stipend yet, even the chicharon sold at Php40.00 is something I wish I can afford. :D )

The travel was, errrr, do I have to say something about it? Well, just a piece of advise, it's best to bring your own vehicle. By commuting, one has to pass 2 towns which approximately takes 2 hours before reaching the destination. It's a consolation that there are trees along the way. The wind was quite cool.

It was also exciting in a way that none of us has been to the town yet. But as a friend told me, there's nothing to worry about getting lost. One wouldn't miss the town. Upon reaching the place, I found out for myself why.

The town was full of stalls which were full of footwear for all ages, and for all foot size (errr, don't be sarcastic, giants and 'mini'-giants are not included :P ). The excitement consumed me. Most of the designs caught my attention. Some were really elegant, and sexy. Others just looked so........alien. :P But for shoppers and shoe lovers who are budget-conscious, it's definitely a heaven on earth.
I felt the need to have more eyes so I can see all these stuff all at once! I suddenly hoped I have more bodies so I can maximize the time to check everything!

For someone who isn't really a shoe fanatic, (don't get me wrong. I definitely see the necessity of using footwear. It's just that I'm already good with having only a pair of shoes, and slippers), and who's suffering from extreme poverty (LOL), I am the last person who should be fascinated about what this place has to offer. :D

So, there. Forgive me, I just can't disclose the place since I have my own personal agenda to protect. Hahahaha. 

And of course, since I'm with P, I can't go home empty-handed. He's one of the most generous persons I've ever known. Hihihi. I can't contain my gratitude for this girly pleasure. Yep, sometimes it feels good to be a chic and really feel like one!
It was already dim, and the flash didn't really help much.
The mirror also needs some cleaning.

Here's what I got! Honestly, this is my first pair of wedge sandals. I won't begrudge you if you doubt my sexuality. Haha. I'm just so in love with flat footwear. I only hope this isn't qualified as infidelity. :)



I'd definitely be going back. Do you wanna come with me? I'd be happy to be your guide, and it's for free. ^______^
