A little shopping...

Shopping with a friend is just plain fun. It's just nice to be able to go around looking at apparel that the two of us can understand. Participation is essential for a truly enjoyable shopping trip. Managed to pick a nice bag at a reasonable price. It was a slingbag, to be precise, but since it was meant for school use I'd call it a pack. Old school! Just the way I like things. Leather buckles coupled with a rugged looking broad sling. Mmm. If not for my love of backpacks, I would've gotten one for myself. IMO, sling bags just get in the way when you're turning about on crowded public transport, and especially when you're chasing a bus.

I'm just a born pavement pounder, I think. Got nothing against miles and miles of walking around just to get to places. My friends mind, sometimes, but they don't mind if I don't get them lost enroute. Got this awful navigation system installed in my head, such that my directions are often mirrored and I can never point correctly in the general direction of the target area. As a consolation, I'm downright decent when it comes to visualizing maps and chasing landmarks. Gota tri-n-goo-late.
