Things that make your day, #1


its amazing how finding a pair of perfect jeans can make your day.
No, let me rephrase,
its amazing how finding a pair of perfect jeans at discounted price can make your day.

hell, its available anywhere but just cant quite rationalize paying for that pricey price. so its heaven sent that there are these obscure shops carrying those 'victimised pairs' of the strict quality control. these bargain priced buys are so precious that even a mate once made a point to keep it a secret.

Either
1. he's uncomfortable when people know he's wearing those less priced jeans OR
2. he just do not want any other soul to start buying all those precious jeans at discounted price even if he can't fit all of it in his wardrobe.

But, i'm sure its the latter. For he's not one to be embarassed with.. a ahh.. let's just say it, a REJECT pair of jeans. Let's just face it, we just make em look gooood on us, nobody would have guessed its a REJECT! Ha ha..

Then there is another mate who just can not see the point of buying a well known brand at discounted price. It all seems unoriginal to him, a tad.. 'faking-it'.

So he buys
1. A pair of that three stripes shoes at half a ribu a pop to find it a bit too tight a month later.
2. A white mp3 player that can hold 15000 tracks to fit it only with 700 worth of tune.
3. A pair of vintage (read: torn and worn) jeans at another half a ribu cause it's a limited edition pair.
And the list goes on...

Well, all this comes down to how we perceive and value things. How we feel good with what our money can buy. How we make ourselves happy and how it can make our day.

It is truly amazing, how a nice perfect pair of jeans at discounted price, can make my day.
