New Stores!

I just couldnt contain this new information that I was able to get so I just KNEW that I had to blog it. Payless Shoes, a shoe brand based in the US is opening here in Manila mid 2010. Also, it has been confirmed that Forever21 will also be opening next year though there is no official date yet.

Now heres another article I stumbled on a while ago. It was too interesting to pass so here it is. This is just a repost from Jirita Jackson's blog: http://chuvaness.com

Someone's idea of a "unique" Christmas decoration/art installation is drawing different kinds of reactions from the neighbors.

Its creator says:

"Good news is that I truly out did myself this year with my Christmas
decorations. The bad news is that I had to take him down after two days. I had
more people come screaming up to my house than ever. Great stories. But two
things made me take it down.
First, the cops advised me that it would cause
traffic accidents as they almost wrecked when they drove by.
Second, a 55
year old lady grabbed the 75 pound ladder almost killed herself putting it
against my house and didn't realize it was fake until she climbed to the top
(she was not happy). By the way, she was one of many people who attempted to do
that. My yard couldn't take it either. I have more than a few tire tracks where
people literally drove up my yard."
