Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter

March 28th, 2002 with 228 views

At the very last minute–around yesterday morning I think–my dad decided that he wanted to go to Baguio today. That made me kinda glad cos I sure as hell didn’t want to be stuck in Manila all summer. We were supposed to leave early this morning but my dad slept late last night. It’s 11 a.m. now and it looks like we won’t be leaving until around noon at least. Which means we will get to Baguio at around 6 p.m. or maybe even later if the traffic is bad. I will be spending my afternoon in the backseat of the car, looking out the window and watching the roads and houses go by as if it were a movie. I hope it won’t be too boring.

I’m really worried about going to the thriftstores this year. That’s pretty much the highlight of my trips to Baguio–thriftstore shopping. Those stupid local teenybopper magazines have pretty much advertised the thriftstores and since it’s Holy Week I’m quite sure there will be hundreds of people thriftstore shopping today. So much for my personal shopping paradise! I’m worried there won’t be any cool clothes and shoes left. I know it’s such a shallow, teenager thing but my friends have already seen every single outfit I have (that’s the price one pays when one goes out a lot!) and I need something new. I need new school shoes as well and I’m not buying at the mall cos someone else will surely get the same pair as me. I know you might be thinking about what a cheapskate I am for preferring thriftstores to the mall. But I don’t give a damn about what you think. Thriftstore clothes are 100% unique and they fit and they’re a million times cheaper–that’s good enough for me.

So I’ll see you guys in a couple of days; I don’t know when I’ll be back.
