letting go

it's been almost a year that my medium sized jeans and shirts are stored in my closet collecting dust. i have said before that i will not dispose them because i still plan to be back on my old medium self. but since im still fat as a cow, i've decided to dispose those clothes. i sorted out all there is to sort and i gathered a huge pile. i planned on having a garage sale this weekend, but yesterday, brunie's mom (who stays at my apartment just doing chores and etc) started selling those stuff. i was she did it coz it was a success!!! we had my stuff spread in the garage and people from all walks of life came and bought something. of course, there still a pile left and i brought a lot of them in my office today, and what do you know, i also made a great sale! i was thinking that nobody will buy my stuff coz it's not "branded" or classy. it's just penshoppe, bench, levi's, human, bossini... but people were really digging it. one woman said that if all the jeans would fit her, she will buy it all. there was also this woman who bought A LOT of clothes and then she haggled to death... like her total purchase is around 750 pesos, but she ended up paying me only 620 pesos. i guess it's just fair, although i think she made a r4eal bargain with all those nafnaf shirts she hoarded. :) i learned that i should put an expensive price mark because people kept on haggling that i ended up giving them 10 peso discount. so if they bought five items, i have slashed off 50 pesos!!! also, i wasn't able to buy plastic bags, and there were a number of people who bought a lot and need to wrap their purchases. also, i had no coins and small bills... so it was really a hassle when one person gave me a 1000 peso bill after a 120 worth of purchases. so there. lessons!

time to buy large and extra large stuff. hey, im cool with it. :)
