jo is happy in a happy gogh...

Pwedeng pang tongue twister. :)

Last January 22, I signed up to join The Alcove’s photography challenge. I was excited for the event…nervous even.

Over breakfast that Friday, January 21, I told M I’ll be joining the event, that it would be something like an amazing race thing. He asked, “what shoes will you wear?” I was so focused on the photography side, I forgot all about the other necessary stuff…. like footwear. I replied, “my hush puppies shooting shoes”. He said I should wear something more comfortable and apt for running and whole day walking. But my rubber trainers that I used to wear during my gym days had seen better days.

Incidentally, a few weeks ago, I was browsing at fitflop’s website and fell in love with their red clogs. It reminded me of Mario Batali’s orange clogs. Kung si mario may signature orange clogs, si jo naman, red clogs! :P But what kept me from buying the clogs (happy gogh line) was the price….. P4500…. Red clogs or flash? …. Flash or red clogs? ….. red clogs or flash? Hmmm… this is hard…. Argh!

So, I brought M’s attention to the red clogs. The pros – I can use it during shoots too. It’s very comfortable, I can use it more often than rubber shoes, etc. Armed with info from the net, I was prepared.

After he left for work, I went online to check out the clogs again. I texted M about the price. He replied back…”hati tayo?” without hesitation I replied “it’s a deal”.

I called up the fitflop boutique in MOA to check if they have stock. It’s on stock! I asked for my size and told them I’ll be there in an hour. Talk about shopping by phone di ba?

When Pipay arrived from school, she saw the clogs and thought it was hers….. she liked it too. One inch na lang, kasya na sa kanya. :)

When M came home that night, he asked, “why red? “

I like red. :)
