2016 Wishlist Compilation

My birthday and Christmas already went by but it won't stop me from posting a wishlist (lol). After all, I'm writing for the upcoming year. I can't help but think that some of these things wouldn't come up if I wrote this 5 years ago.

CDs of my current music obsession - seriously, why can't I find them anywhere? Or maybe I'm looking at the wrong places. Album playlists from the following artists keep my morning commute from being dull. Having the physical copy still tops the experience.

Record Player - I own CDs but never a vinyl record so I want it just because, haha. Would be cool and hipster to own one. I remember my friend saying that we're already over the digital age so people are trying to revive old stuff.

Oblique Pen Holders - haven't owned a fancy one yet but they're so expensive! The left one is Dyosa Kamagong and sells for 6,500 while the other one on the left is Zanerian which sells at 3,500. Both photos are from The Curious Artisan who partnered with local makers to create these wonderful holders. 

Leather Sandals - I've been drooling really weird on leather sandals for the whole year of 2015. Tortured myself with their Renegade Folk's IG feed and wanted to have the same sandals photo goals ever since. Every time I pass by Common Thread of GB5, I fit their sandals and walk away without buying. LOL. RF is also designed and handcrafted by local artisans.

Signs of domestication - sandwich presser, automatic mixer, handheld vacuum cleaner and wooden hangers are the keys to a happy life. Who doesn't want crispy top sandwiches, a dust free house, a really fluffy heavy cream and pretty hangers?

Had a lot of fun making this list especially adjusting the div tags on HTML mode haha.

Two and a half days before New Year! Time flies by so fast. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas celebration. Happy Holidays! :)

December Is Just Around the Corner

My favorite month is coming and I'm really excited! Aside from the fact that it's a tad colder than previous months, it's also a celebration month: birthday, anniversary and Christmas all in one! Most people would say having your birthday in the same month as Christmas sucks because people often times give you gifts covering both occasions. I don't care though... cause even care bears don't care! (whut?) December will always be a time of celebrating new life to me and the Catholic celebration of Jesus's birth.

So in line with my upcoming month, I am listing all the things that I want but I do not need. LOL. In short, it's my wishlist. And since it's a wishlist, it's up to me (or the people around me, ehem, ahhaha) to make it come true. :p

Susan Bate's 6-pc Silvallium Crochet Hook Set

I love doing crochet! But I only have 4mm and 5.5 mm at the moment. I tried purchasing them one by one but the store where I always buy it ran out of stocks. I found it though at Gantsilyo Guru Selections and crossing my fingers to have future funds to get it. Plus, 100% of their proceeds go to the victims of typhoon Yolanda / Haiyan. I got my super saver yarn here at P350. I think I now know what I will ask for our exchange gift college friends edition.

Muji Round Corner Punch
Great for handmade cards but these are insanely pricey! An alternative brand would be me happy still. :)

Graphics Tablet
What do I need it for? NOTHING. Just jealous of the people who can add own handwritten messages on their photos and other needs like putting your signature on a soft copy document. No photo, I have no idea what's the best one for hobbyists.

Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 Classic
This one would probably empty my wallet if I have. About 300 to 400 for 10 films? Please bring back the film camera days! I just love that you have an actual photo right after you hit that capture button. Preferring the classic over the colorful ones because.. well.. I think it goes with the age.

That's it! (For now?) I would also love to have front loading washing machine or Sunnex pans and other insane stuff that are not practical to ask in a wishlist. LOL. Aside from that, I need to get a 25-year old haircut style. Now what does that look like??
