e i f f e l

you went to a clothes store looking for that perfect pair of pants. you found it at a local shop. a size 32 stone washed low rise jean. the nice embroidered design on the back pocket makes it all the more cute. you try it on. it's perfect. you get your wallet and see a five hundred peso bill. then you look at the tag. php1,399. shrugging, you went back and placed the pair of jeans in the hanger. you tell yourself that when you have the money, you're going to get back and get it.

you went out of the shop hopeful.

weeks pass. the long wait is over. you remember how good it looked on you. how the soft denim felt against your leg. how tall it made you look. you are smiling. and now that you have the money to make the purchase, you run back to the shop.

and the jeans you were eyeing was not available in your size anymore.

do you know how that feels?



i am feeling that feeling right now.  that miserable, frustrated feeling. and i am not even looking for a pair of jeans.
