When walking around the community isn't enough, go out and spend. Nope you don't need much, just change the ambience.

Walking around isn't enough to uplift your mood marse. You need to go out and spend money! That was Marse @cindee08 response while we're talking at the Hiveph discord server. It was a random conversation about being sad these past few days . Perfect timing as one of my sisters-in-law needs to go at Smart as she is concerned in her sim card. Caleb and I tagged along.

It always takes time having business at Smart so told her while she's in line, Caleb and I will just look around at the department store.

Days ago , I realized that it's been three years since the last time I bought doll shoes. Buying online was hard for me as I am always having a hard time finding one that would perfectly fit in my feet.

There are items for sale but I didn't like the style. It could be the style that fits my taste but not my pocket .

The urge to check the apparel section as I badly need to change my wardrobe. I am in the era now where I prefer comfort over fashion. Coordinates will do or maybe mix and match trousers. This is me as a Mommy now .

However, since I am holding my son, fitting was impossible. That made me walk out of the store without buying anything.

There are several families strolling and kids with cotton Candies in their hands. Years from now probably our son would cry over those sugary snacks . Hoping it won't be some kids that would roll over the mall's floor.

Speaking of sugar, I needed a cup to boost my energy. Why not drop by in Macao Imperial Tea?

Supposedly not but this makes me feel better even though I know later caffeine will make me stay awake at night.

Thus Caleb wanted to have a sip and kept on snatching it . No choice but I need to place it a little bit away from us.

We stayed there for a few more minutes and were thankful his attention was later diverted.

The timing as my sister-in-law was done when we went back. We headed to the hardware as she needed to buy something. Afterward, I told her to accompany me to Uniqlo. Perhaps some trousers will suit me.

Unfortunately, I still haven't bought anything as it was expensive . Going to shop now was different from before. Having my own money to spend gives me the freedom to pick anything I want.

Les, let us eat first. Where too?

Ah, this is always one of the questions that take time to answer. She still had work later so we chose fewer customers.

Pizza Hut, after all, I've been craving for.

It's not hard to decide what to eat.

Thus, anyone here in the Philippines that has been here? Was it only me who noticed the food was not that delicious?

I swear, the taste was different. Could it just be this branch?

And yes, they have high chairs but no safety belts. Not friendly for infants.

Oh, I thought it was because I just had milk tea so it was tasteless. Turned it was really.

So, we decided to take out the remaining pizza and go home. Perhaps, I will ask other sister inlaw to accompany me next time shopping. I badly needed a few outfits since we are going home for vacation.
