Objects of my Affection

I have been known to become too attached to fictional characters in books, movies and TV so it shouldn't be a surprise to learn that I too get attached to inanimate objects. Non-living entities that has been with me since Day1 that couldn't possibly appreciate my loyalty to them are still here with me. If they could possibly talk, I bet they would say "Give me a break!" But they couldn't so sorry nalang sila! hahaha :P and because I love them, they should be featured in my blog :) Here are the top 5 things that has a special place in my heart forever and ever and everrrrr! heirloom material!

1. my rubber shoes

This is the only item that was bought here and not in Pinas. Originally my mom's, pero inangkin ko pra gamitin pag nagduduty ako sa ospital. ok kc walang sintas so nde ko klngan problemahin na matatapilok ako sa sintas ko. It has been my shoes for almost 4 yrs now ata. tingnan nyo nman ung ichura. wasak na wasak na. It makes people say "Jam, sumusweldo ka ba?bumili ka kaya ng bagong sapatos?" hahaha :P but no! we have been through ups and downs when I was a student and ngyong nagwowork nako, does that mean pagpapalit ko na xa??idontthinkso. haha :) pero since mukang malapit na xa magretire. I am planning na pagpahingahin na xa this July, when I finish the NewGrad programme sa ospital. may awa rin nman ako no! pero it won't be the same :(

2. my blue shirt

I can still remember buying this in the sale pile in SM southmall. It was a size smaller for me pero I was adamant in buying it kc gustong gusto ko tlaga xa and sale nman. I wore it to most junior events nung highschool, kc blue. and I still continued to wear it until college. I was wearing that shirt when I had a picture taken with my crush. It was the shirt I was wearing nung naging kami nung 1st serious bf ko. grabe daba?witness xa sa lahat! prang bestfriend lang! hahaha :P and now I can't wear it anymore kc ang laki ko na..huhuhuhu!!!!! :( pero I'm not gonna give it away shempre. papamana ko siguro sha someday pag kaya ko na xa ilet go. umaaasa pa ata akong papayat pako! hahaha :P

3. my purple bag

I remember buying this sa UST tiangge. It was my first "big" bag. pag aalis kc for outings and such, wla akong malaking bag. so naisip ko i needed one. It was the bag i used to put my clothes in nung nakitira ako sa bahay ng tito ko nung college. 1 taon rin un! basta may outing, roadtrip whatever, asahan nyong magkasama kame. gamit ko rin xa when i went back home and u can just imagine the faces of my friends. "buhay parn yan!!" hahaha :P sabe pa ng isang mom ng friend ko (mas nauna nyang nakita ung bag) "o anjan na c jam?" OMG daba?pati nanay kilala e! and I'm so happy nakasama rin xa sa Sydney! awwww...ang layo na ng narating namen! :) ngayon may kapatid na xang bag. and they're getting along well. It took me 5 years ata bago xa magkaron ng kasama. hehe :)

4. pencil case

I bought this one sa greenhills naman. I needed a pencilcase for school and so I bought it. and kahit green na ung loob nya dahil nagtae ung highlighter ko e love na love ko parin tong pencilcase nato. nasa loob nya e ung faber castell highlighter buddies ko (hindi sila ung nagtae, stabilo un! HMP!).. nagpabili pa tlga ako sa pinsan ko dati ng specific na highlighter na yun kc ang arte ko lang! hahaha :P

5. missed shirt

This is the only object here that was actually a gift and not bought. It was a despedida gift from Reena, my bestfriend, before I left. She stitched the words herself and it says "missed" kc I will be "missed" daw. and for that reason alone e ksama talaga xa sa favorite things ko. In my fear of ruining the shirt, I rarely wear it. I consider it my lucky shirt and I only wear it when I have exams and presentations to give me luck and so far it hasn't failed me :) It is the only piece of clothing that I am not too lazy to handwash :) hahaha :P special treatment talaga! hehe :P and since I'm done with school, I wonder when I'll be able to wear it again..

so that's my little family of treasured items :) I have a lot of old gifts from GS/HS pa na dinala ko rin dito pero sila tlga ung bida among them all. wala lang share ko lang. I feel so happy just doing this blog. hahaha :P loserrrrr!
