The customs officer didn't return the invoice from Tozando.
They told me the sageo was already sent here in Dasma, Cavite, just today and I need to wait until Monday to get it from the nearest post office. The notice card for the iaito katana was given to me just today (it arrived very late even though I already got the katana) together with the notice card for the sword oil.
I thought this notice card was for the sageo, I didn't check the EMS item no. and the customs officer keep looking for the item in the customs.
The reason I'm buying sword oil from abroad is because the selfish motherfucking seller of the maintenance cleaning kit here revoked my transaction with them just because I didn't buy their overpriced swords.
Anyway, the box of the sword oil was kinda funny...
it's 12 inches by 5&1/2 inches and these are what inside:
and the main item is just this:
A 2 inches by 2&1/2 inches sword oil.
I'm glad it finally arrived. I can now clean the iaito katana while waiting for the arrival of my other package from amazon. The oil smells like the cleansing mouthwash medicine they use in dental surgery.
Even though I just paid a small amount, I still hate EMS because they always make me feel nervous of how much will I pay to the customs.
In the evening, I went to the sites (White Plains in Camp Aguinaldo in San Juan City and Bonifacio Global City in Taguig) where the practitioners of Pekiti Tirsia Kali are practicing. I didn't able to get inside White Plain because it's a private subdivision and there's no practice today but I'm able to see 30th track fitness park in BGC. It's a very long walk to get to White Plains & I think I need to carry only a small-light amount of bag and also a mountain bike. In BGC, the tuition fee is PHP1,000 higher than in San Juan (PHP2,500 every month in BGC, PHP1,500 every month in White Plains). The rain poured hard and there's a heavy traffic jam especially that it was Friday.
