vetlongwalks home & pf

one of the guaranteed things you will find when you visit my home is little stuff bought from places i was fortunate enough to visit in and out of the country ( haha, so pretentious!) . lest you think that i have a vast collection or am very well-traveled, let me be quick to add that i only meant little knick-knacks, ref magnets mostly, and they are not that plenty YET . moreover, i haven't been to that many places here and abroad. after i've outgrown the habit of buying souvenir shirts, i moved on to buying something for my little pet house. as i can't afford the stuff that i truly want for my pet house, i compromised by getting myself a ref magnet bearing the town/city's name and any small household item i could carry back home. as i'm known to hate carrying anything, i usually just pick out those that i can stuff inside my bag/suitcase. the biggest so far i got for my house are the two orange stools from bohol in 2011 and the hanging lamp i got from coron, pal...

circa 2007 this was how one of the rooms looked like when the house was turned over to me. although, this is NOT EXACTLY mine, but that of the model unit. haha, i got cheapskate housing, thus, this room is the same for every homeowner who got the same unit. circa 2008 i didn't move in to my pet house immediately after it was finished. moron me thought only of the monthly amortization when john first talked about this subdivision project in mactan. boy, was i in for a big surprise when all the other expenses came knocking hard on my front door - there were move-in fees, fees for electricity and water - not to mention light fixtures, furniture and whatnots. so yeah, with nothing but the mullah that comes twice in a month, i had to wait for months before i could truly settle in. funny, i couldn't even afford to buy decent bed sheets. the really, really nice ones will cost you around 3k pesos and more. of course, there are those you'll be lucky enough to get on sale for at leas...
