secret sale

today we finally went back to glorietta. it's been almost a month since that tragic day. and it's been nearly two months since our last time there. we were there around 3pm and it was hardly the ghost town chuvaness described it as. maybe people are slowly gaining the courage to go back and shop fearlessly. but it's bizarre to see glorietta 2 all boarded up. earlier in the day,we accidentally spilled coffee on our white pants (right, it's the law of spillage—it only happens when you're wearing white), so we were madly dashing from store to store looking for a bottom that would go with the top and jacket we were wearing. and as we were eyeing the bubble skirt on the mannequin in the criselda section in rustan's, lo and behold, the designer herself pops up. "pssst," she says conspiratorially, "check out the secret sale on the fourth floor..." secret sale? how come we don't know about this?? secret nga eh. "it just started the other day," she continues. "seven jeans from nine thousand down to one thousand." say no more, we are so there! to access the secret sale, go up to the fourth floor on the debenhams side (in fact, it's right on top of), proceed to the maleta section, and when you see this boarded up section... don't be fooled into thinking it's a renovation. the entrance is on the right side where that person is standing. but you can't bring anything in. you'll have to leave your packages and even your purse with the guards! so if you want to pay cash, wear clothes with pockets to stash your millions in! (but seriously, we doubt you'll spend that much...)
