D.M.

Aarrrgh. It's Christmas eve and I still haven't started my christmas shopping!

Call me lazy. I thought I started early this time since I've already thought of the gifts (and giveaways) I'm going to buy since October and It's only now that I'm doing my shopping.

It's still 12 hours till Christmas and I'm in Greenhills. There's not as many people as I am expecting but hey, I'm not complaining. I was in D.M. earlier today to look for, nee buy some boxes/ packaging for some of the gifts that I already have. D. M. or Divisoria Market, or mall to some people is jampacked with people as always. I used to work near the area so the number of people didn't surprise me. I'm used to it. What I'm not used to anymore is the smell, caused by the fact that there are huge piles of trash in certain portions of the street. It took me by surprise that the building where our office stood was torn down and in it's place is "another" mall. And I still have some things I left from that office since I kinda left unexpected.

Anyway, I'm searching for those plastic containers that some figurines come with. Anyway, when I do find the store that sells them, they only sell by bulk, and when I'm going to buy 25 pieces (when in fact I need only 7), they tell me that they can't sell me because their warehouse is closed until Monday. Sigh.

Not finding what I needed, I tried to look for alternative packaging options and if there's one thing I learned today is when you go to D.M., it's always better to buy in bulk coz no one's selling by piece, except those selling from the sidewalk.

I'm already through with the few gifts that I intended to buy. I still have a few errands more before I proceed home. I wish they'll like the gifts I have for them. If not, there's always next year.

Happy Christmas na lang.
