Relaxing on a Saturday morning when I have no agenda for the day and enjoying brunch alone and some macarons from Bizu – it’s a matter of peace and quiet. I might just read a book or paint this afternoon.

ALONE TIME AND SOME MACARONS

CONSTANT BLAHS
A week ago, I was incoherently babbly---lots of fumbling sounds that didn't have any pattern or intention. I would just shriek and then laugh and then flap my lips around and laugh some more. A few days ago, something clicked and I started saying one "word" over and over, with intention and rhythm: "blah, blah, blah, blah, etc." I say it in a constant stream that goes on forever, and sometimes will stop speaking, but will silently move my lips in the same way, in endless repetition. I am no longer a random babbler!

(must have - will definitely get one when I get there)
Over time, though, I became more aware of being shifted around, and once I was awake, I did not want to be stuck in the seat. I could try any number of books and distractions, but I wanted out, not that I blame anyone, of course. I wouldn't want to be strapped into something unable to see all the awesomeness of a new world, either. I insisted on sticking to this seat, even though it lost its identity as alternate bed.
I’m sad and excited at the same time, realizing what a big step this is for me.
I guess it’ll be a good trade-off.

SUMMER PROJECT : LIME STRAPS AND RED SOCKS
Summer project: switching my 12 year old brown leather band to lime green. It is easy, cheap and you’ll feel like you bought a totally new watch for what, Php 500 or so? No brainer! You can also be impulsive and get a couple of different options and rotate them like you do your loafers. Now, call me cheap.
On my list for next month:
•Suit for my cousins wedding (Paul Smith or should I go bespoke?)
•New pair of black lace-ups
•More red socks
•Have leather belt made (Edgarsons in Zamboanga) and courier to Manila

ABOUT A FEW INCHES HIGHER
Note to self: when bored, go fabric shopping ( Kamuning, Market Market, Fanbi, Fabric Warehouse in Libis and Ilaya). I’m currently into this pair, maybe in light blue, khaki, black and seersucker.
DOWN AND CRAPPY (not my usual post)
Normally I'm not like this, but the past week or so I've been feeling really down. Pupu left last week and will be in Baltimore for four weeks for an operation and my little sister who left yesterday just added up to everything. I hate staring at an empty bed next to mine – totally not fun!

BASIC MATTER 7: WELL-CUT BUTTON DOWN SHIRT

MOVIE: DARJEELING LIMITED
Mr. Anderson’s eye for local color, the red-orange-yellow end of the spectrum in particular is meticulous and admiring. And oh, those vintage trunks – I like!

BASIC MATTER 6: BROOKS BROTHERS
A good Oxford shirt should be at the top of your summer list. I just got the BB shirts I ordered a week ago on Ebay and yes, they fit me really well. US based Brooks Brothers’ have been around since 1818 and they have been making brilliant cotton oxford shirts and the fact that the brand is still around today shows that they are doing something right.
