A Social Climber's Blooper

First day of school last Monday and I was uber excited because I have not stepped inside school grounds for more than two months.  The weather was as crazy as ever, so just imagine a very sweaty me running up and down the winding stairs to get enrolled.  In grad school there's no rush to get yourself enrolled because classes offered would never close due to minimal enrollees.  But before the hullabaloo of my enrollment, I started my school year with a very very hilarious BANG!  
This is the bag from this haul
I was just about to come down from the jeepney I was ridding for school when suddenly a lady of chalk white face (chinchansoo alert) pointed her lips towards my knockoff Chanel bag and then said "Miss, mao nay GUSI?"   (Miss, is that GUSI?) I did not have the time to answer her because I was careful in getting down from the vehicle.  As soon as I processed her question, I was roaring with laughter while crossing the busy street from Carbon, a big market place right across my school.  To this day I still smile when I remember the incident.  Not to be a snob, but I think GUCCI is a fairly recognized brand by all walks of life.  Moreover, Chanel has a very distinct trademark don't you think?  Can someone write and distribute the FAQ's of a fashionista/socialite wannabe please?  I'd like to get a hold of that too LOL

Love Month Wrap Up!


WHEW!  What an eventful 28 days!  It felt like the longest month of the year.  I was sooo busy with midterm exams during the first week, criminal law mock bar just this sunday.  I'm a bit dazed by the stress. 

Earthquakes and Tsunamis are just two of the MANY instances that we humans find ourselves helpless, so let us not be so arrogant by thinking we are alone and that we do not need anyone else.  Let us have faith in the greater scheme of things.

I got so much to thank for: the giveaways I won, the unexpected gifts, my fabulous thrift finds, I could go on and on but its just time to move forward and just smile back now.
