I should stop thinking about food right now so I'll think about shoes instead

I'm at that phase where I'm eagerly waiting for my paycheck and can't stop thinking about what kinds of food I'll eat when it finally gets here. I am thinking of burritos and burgers actually. With a nice glass of cold lemonade.
But enough about that. I am so bogged down by thinking of food right now, so I'm thinking about shoes instead.
When I was a kid, my mom got me these combat boots in black. I didn't really hate them per se, but being weirdly clothed at six isn't the easiest thing, as everybody knows. I just wanted to have a nice pair of Mary Janes like my classmates, but no, my mom had to get me some combat boots that frayed and got worn out so perfectly now that I think about it.
Then I learned about Doc Martens some time in the late nineties. I immediately got excited because I know I had something of the sort way back when. Mama made me this cute baby doll dress in orange and floral materials with matching chaleko. That was what I used to wear with the combat boots to church and several other occasions. I even wore it on my seventh birthday.
I think it was the nostalgia that made me covet a nice pair of DMs. I still want a pair now, so the store at Bonifacio Global City really thrills me. The place itself is packed with memories. We used to hang out around the area back in high school because it was sort of deserted and had nice asphalt roads perfect for skateboarding. The cute skater boys were also another thing.
Aaaaaaaaanyway. So, yeah. Right now I'm working on that. The thing is quite costly, and well, I still have a number of things to spend my dough on at the moment. I still have to get my ass to dressmaking school first, so that's that. But I'll definitely get one by the end of the year or at least by my 25th birthday.

I'm getting the classic 1460 Womens in black so I can wear them forever lolz

And then I learned today about Repetto opening a store in Manila. I'm not a big fan of pricey flats because I only wear them to death - the last pair I had was in gray and fell apart after battling a Baguio rainy day. I got them for like PHP350 at Landmark. I am such a cheapo. But I can't deny how interested I am with the Repetto ballet flats.
People say it's really comfortable. I wouldn't know since most of my ballet flats gave me blisters, maybe because they're the cheap kind. Anyway, I still don't see myself buying one. I tend to like the look, though. But with Shoe Room, I can get something that looks like it for around PHP300.
Anyway, the store looks pretty.

Now I go back to my laundry.
