animal print
Animal prints are really not my type when I was younger. I even remember promising myself that I will NEVER wear anything animal printed. But look at me, here I am eating up all those promises.
I am now totally inlove with anything animal printed! Like this one bag that I bought for my mom. The moment I saw it, I was totally for it! No hesitations, this one is perfect!

kid at heart
Cute little kiddos living nearby our current home in Batangas. I love how unique these two kids are. Do you notice the one kiddo wearing gold watch? Actually his accessories this day were incomplete. He used to wear gold necklace and gold bracelet as well. Our minister once ask him “Aba hijo! Hindi ka ba natatakot mahold-up?” sabay tawanan naman kami. Very masayahin and sweet...

crazy lil thing called friendship
It was June of 1995 when Besy and I met each other. We were in the same class in the first grade. Kids really do not care about ‘real’ friendship, we all know that. All that they want is to have someone to play with, eat with, chat with, and laugh with. But with Besy and I, it was a totally different story. Our childhood friendship was the start of our lifelong friendship.

doon po sa amin
Noong nakaraang bakasyon, naimbitahan si mama na maging ninang sa isang kasal sa aming mumunting bayan ng Calaca, Batangas. Akala ko normal na kasalan lang iyon. Anim na taon pa lamang kami naninirahan sa Batangas. Hindi pa ako masyadong pamilyar sa iba’t ibang pagdiriwang nila. Nagulat na lang ako isang araw bago ang nasabing kasal ay ipinadala sa amin ng bride and groom ang...

Though this one is a classic movie and I heard a lot of good feedbacks from my friend who’ve already seen it, this is my first time to watch Audrey Hepburn’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
I like the story. It’s not plastic, very realistic. Though it was made decades ago, I love that the fashion sense was enormously classy! What I didn’t just like was the audio...

December 25, 2011
This is a snippet of what happened on my Christmas Day.
Well technically I do not celebrate Christmas, so this day was just a simple premiere-movie-mall-full-of-people-heavy-traffic day for me. The plan was that I together with my college friends Deejay and Chat will spend this whole day together. Unluckily, Chat needed to be somewhere important so it was only DeeJay and I...

my baby will be a lady
December 23, 2011
It was my baby’s first birthday. I am really attached to Carla, as if she is really someone I get along well with. There were several times that I traveled alone only with her. I felt like I need to give her something as a gift for her first birthday. Though I was really tired from work, I went straight to Trinoma to have her bathed and waxed.
While waiting for my...

blurry breakfast
December 21, 2011
When we started with HGS, we were 18 in the Foundations Training. Now 5 months after, only 6 of us were left in the company. But that doesn’t mean that we lost (or we will ever lose) touch of one another. Though hindi talaga lahat sila naging kaclose ko I am thankful that somehow we met on this roadtrip of life.
So after being apart for a few months, my dear friends...

christmas shopping
December 18, 2011
Best in late post talaga ako. Haha. So this was when Babe and I went to the SM Mall of Asia SMX Convention Center for the Christmas sale.
We went early and realized on the way that we haven’t had lunch yet. We stopped over the Blue Wave and ate at SumoSam.
If it is Japanese it is mandatory (mandatory talaga?) for me to order the spicy soup. This wasn’t spicy...

early out
December 12, 2011
After Thanksgiving Day in the USA, Sony prepared us for a higher volume of calls, that however did not happen. In that case the service level will go down and our company’s solution will send some representatives on an early out. They offered and we accepted, when I say we, I mean me and Ivan. Ivan is my friend who joined the Divas 2011 in this post —-> DIVAS...

milk tea battle: HAPPY LEMON
Happy Lemon has been one of the most popular milk teas in the market right now. It has really unique flavors, those that are not served on any other tea houses. Probably one of the reasons why people keep coming back for it.
What I had this day was the Cocoa with Rock Salt and Cheese. See? How unique can that be? Has anyone ever thought of mixing a chocolate drink with rock salt and what?...

gym?
I was (always) trying to lose weight. Luckily we have a gym on our activity center. I was just aaaalways lazy to go there. But there were a few times that I managed to push my butt off and hit the gym and it tired me!!
As much as possible I want a healthy lifestyle. Hello! Peg ko ata mabuhay ng matagl, dami ko pangarap, ayoko madeads agad. Haha! But I dunno. It’s just that having a...

tory burch
Everytime that I am in Makati fixing some important things, I never fail to pass by Tory Burch.
I am not really a girl who loves branded *slash* overpriced things. I am more on the practical side but oh boy this one is really a winner. If only I have the money to spend I would use it with bags from Tory Burch. If could buy only one overpriced bag it would be a Tory Burch. Needless to say I am...

Today is the first time for me to wear my Year of the Dragon bracelet. It was a gift from a friend way back in 2010. I just haven’t got the chance to wear it and match with my clothings. Today seems to be the perfect time to wear this in celebration of the Chinese New Year as well. Kung Hei Fat Choi!
When was the last time you did something for the first time?

milk tea battle: JELLY G
I started my Milk Tea Battle in November. The first one I tried was Moonleaf Tea Shop then followed shortly by Serenitea.
I was supposed to get Gong Cha this time but the line was unimaginably long and I was in a hurry so I just decided to get the Jelly G tea.
I asked for their best seller, the girl in Jelly G gave me this one. It uses tea from Thailand. Nice thing about their place is that...

November 11, 2011.
My sister and I went to Makati to submit my application for IELTS exam. She was hesitant to come with me so I told her that I’ll treat her lunch. When we were in Greenbelt we cannot decide where to eat so we just went to the food court. Then this giant rice covered by egg caught our attention:
It was a Korean fast food. I forgot the name alredy, my bad!

Trivia: When Babe and I started dating, we always choose UP Sunken Garden. As in always talaga, siguro 9 out of 10 dates namin before was in UP. There we can talk a lot and get to know each other better. I Lalalalalooooove Mang Larry’s Isaw. Even if he doesn’t like it, he always agreed to order one for me. Then we will walk to the Sunken Garden and eat my 15 pcs of...

This was during one of our payday/spendays. When we still have the same schedules we made it a point that we eat out and spoil ourselves over lunch every payday.
Our first choice was Penpen’s Resto in Cubao Expo. We wanted to try their unlimited pasta aligue. But unluckily they are not yet open due to the Halloween party the night before. Ping Medina and I were...

August 2, 2011.
Phot and I started applying for work in August. I was hired that same day that we went to Manila for the interview and I had to undergo a medical exam the day after that. We had no place to stay here in Manila so we decided to check in in a well known hotel/motel—-Sogo Hotel in North Avenue just across Trinoma Mall.
This was not my first time here because I also checked...

Phot gave me these very beautiful shoes from Cardam’s. I love it so much. Very classy. Would you even guess that it is just P299? Diba hindi naman halata? Love it! I love sale. I don’t mind receiving sale items because I know that they were once the best sellers as well. Love love love! Happy feet again. :)

This was my first time to drive all by myself from Manila to Batangas. I was so happy because I prepared myself to the battle of a heavy traffic but was beyond surprised when I reached Tagaytay City in an hour only!
I loved this time because I had the time to reflect and listen to my thoughts. Happy New Year indeed!

haireret
July 22, 2011
It is ALWAYS difficult to invite my mom over a salon bonding. So lucky this day she felt the urge for a hair make-over. One more thing we love about having our mom with the salon is that we do not pay even a single cent for the grandest hair treatment. Haha! Maybe that is one of the reasons why she doesn’t want to go with us all the time. :D
Mom and I had our rebond,...

July 4, 2011
After the boards, Phot was really stressed out. She requested for a gift and I gave her one day of relaxation at the Wensha Spa.
Food was not great. What I just really like about those that they have was the eat-all-you-can Shabu-Shabu. I am a sucker for meatballs, squidballs, chickenballs, and all those sort so it was really sulit to me.
It was our first time together in a...

(chef) nurse Phot
July 2011.
This was the time that I went to Manila to give my full support to my besissie, Phot, in her then upcoming board exams.
A day before the two biggest days of her nursing career we went to the mall to unwind. We just strolled and ate a lot. After feeling tired we went to Breadtalk just so we could take home some breads for breakfast the next morning.
Just before she retired to bed,...

This was the time that I was still living in Batangas and I visit Manila very seldom lang. My good friends Chat and Deej decided to grab this opportunity and meet with each other.

November 18, 2011. The whole Sony account was present to support the one and the only, Alyssa Vai Jacobs in the Divas 2011.
The Mister Fu look alike hosted the event. We were somehow pissed because the program did not start on time. Some of us still have shifts. We hoped we’d finish the event but we didn’t.
The program started like 2 hours late but everyone forgot about...

shabu-shabu sisters
November 7, 2011. My sisters and I barely get the chance to bond. Luckily this day, we were all free, and we were all craving for shabu-shabu.
We decided to go to SM North EDSA The Block for Healthy Shabu-Shabu.
I love the fact that Healthy Shabu-Shabu has a P300 meal. We could order just two, share them, and feel very full afterwards.
We ordered one chicken shabu-shabu and one beef...

November 12, 2011. This was the day we finished the nesting stage in HGS. Luckily, and through the aid of some angels named Alecx, TL Maan, and floor walkers, we were all able to pass!
I thought I am over that whole review, exams, and grades thingy when I left school but a big NO NO. My job requires me to meet a certain monthly metrics, and if I don’t meet, I don’t qualify. No...

Another year passed. Not much of a progress but I hope I am getting there. I really love answering this survey because it makes me feel obligated to look back and count the blessings I received. Anyhoo, this is how my year went:

Little London
I dunno why but I really love selling. There is something about this activity that gives me joy and contentment. It’s not like I can make a ‘real’ living out of my teenie-weenie online stores but it satisfies me in a lot of ways.
I think it runs in the blood as well. You may trace it back to my grandmother who owned a very successful all-you-need store in our tiny baranggay...

What is late post? haha! This was in November 25, the day before I took my IELTS exam..
My dear friend Gay is practically living 5 minutes away from me so she just all of a sudden visited me here for the first time. Gaahd! We were so hungry then because I was trying to bury myself to the handouts that I got for review (Cramming as usual), I forgot about breakfast and lunch.
