I wanted to buy a pair of affordable jelly shoes because they are so comfy. It has been a long time since I wore a pair and I miss wearing them. So after my appointment at the dental clinic, I decided to go to Starmall and check if they have the jelly shoes. On my way to the mall, I remembered that I needed a new sponge for my pressed powder. Since sa Shangri-la ako dumaan papunta sa Starmall, naisipan kong pumunta sa Daiso and browsed the shelves for the sponge. Naalala ko kasi na meron sila nung maramihan na sponge sa iisang pack. I saw two kinds of packs with lots of sponges in it. One with ten pieces of square sponges and the other with twenty-five pieces in different sizes, shapes and colors.
I contemplated which of the two should I buy. I'm not really a make-up guru and don't need a lot. Both packs cost Php 88. Pero parang lugi naman ako sa sampung square sponges lang. Obviously, I went for the second pack which has twenty-five pieces of sponges in it. Para sulit.
25 pieces in one pack. |
As I was thinking if I should really buy it or not, there was this woman who was looking for something which really puzzled me because the items on each hook were the same. Pilit niyang inaabot at tiningnan ang item na nasa likod ng sabitan kaya't nagsipaglaglagan ang ibang mga items na nasa unahan ng hook. What ikred me that time was when she ignored and just looked down at the items that fell on the floor. She didn't even attempt on picking them. My giiid...ang ibang tao nga naman. Since wala siyang balak pulutin ang nalaglag, nagpasya akong magkusa na pulutin ang mga iyon. Nang may malaglag uli at hindi niya pinulot at tiningnan lang niya uli, hindi ko talaga napigilan ang hindi mapairap tinalikuran ko na lang si ateng.
I browsed the other items but there was nothing that piqued my interest. Nagpasya akong bumalik sa rack na kinaroroonan ng mga sponge and to my surprise, andoon pa rin sa ateng. Hehe. I chose another pack of sponges when a crazy thing happened. I didn't know the pack was loose and when I lifted the damn pack to take a closer look of the colors, the sponges just kind of jumped out of the pack. I was astounded for a moment that I couldn't even move and just stared at the sponges scattered on the floor. The woman, that woman just exclaimed, turned around and made a hasty escape. She didn't even bother to help. Wahahaha I didn't know why I decided to look for another pack when I already have one in my hand. Lesson 1: Be contented with what you already got. Lesson 2: Think twice before lifting a wrapped item or packed item whatever you call it.
I hastily picked up the blasted sponges on the floor and dumped them inside the plastic pack, proceeded to the counter and made my hasty escape as well. Napaisip ako kung na-karma ba ako sa ginawa kong pag-irap or sadyang tanga lang ako. Hahaha I was not able to buy a pair of jelly shoes because there weren't any. Pupunta na lang siguro ako sa Guadalupe next time.
Here are the sponges inside the pack:
