It has been over a month, but I just want to share these some nice pieces I got from Accessorize during the mad sale which happened sometime in February.On my first visit, I got this nice brown bag which has been my office bag. It was the first time I am buying something made of this material, and I was worried that the material might peel off after several use. But I am glad it didn't. Nice quality. Got it for only Php700 (70% off)To know...

The weekend went so fast. It has been a hectic weekend. I took the leave last Friday and promised myself I would be working from home on Saturday morning. But I failed. Now, I am too scared to open my work inbox. I just made sure my Out of Office Notification is on.So what happened? Seemed like I only stayed at home to sleep. Friday morning, I spent it in the mall - to buy shoes and blazer needed for the shoot (Saturday). I realized I do not have...

A Men's Fragrance for Women?

I need to buy new bottle of perfume. I need to add that on my to-do list. I have been using this DKNY Be Delicious Perfume, and my coworker said I always smell like an airplane - in a good way. He said, I smell fresh, and good. So whenever I see him, I always ask him - coffee, tea or juice? We always have fun at work, and there are just too many funny anecdotes and stories to share. I suddenly remember this one time I forgot to bring my facial...

What's Up With Me and (Nescafe & South Bark) Contest Winners!

Don't hate me. And I know the image below doesn't match the title. I just became so busy with work and all other commitments. I started "working" and I mean handling assignees who are sent to different parts of the globe to do business. Imagine how challenging it is. Then, Philippine Fashion Week this week (and I don't have anything to wear yet.. I thought of not going to some shows), and I have a pictorial on Saturday (I will probably blog about...

(Finally) Meeting Petra Mahalimuyak: Host for Kanta Pilipinas

I finally met Petra Mahalimuyak! There was no need for me to go to the US to meet her. She is here in the Philippines and she is here to stay (I think). Remember, that I even sent her interview questions and wished that we were doing an interview while sipping coffee, and just being crazy? Read my blog about it here.But coffee shop is not where we met, but in Robotosan (The Fort, Taguig) together with other bloggers and very friendly people of Future...

Wishing for Genie, Fairy Godmother & Santa Claus: A Wishlist

I love shopping and online shopping (click the link to see some of my purchases). It is a fact that you can include in my profile in Wikipedia (that is, if there is anyone who would bother to care and create one for me).I have been shopping way before when sellers would post their items/advertisements in forum, upload the pictures of their items in PictureTrail, and the only way to pay for the item is to meet-up. There was no shopping platform...

What to Discover in The Mind Museum?

I finally got the time to visit The Mind Museum! Weeee!!! Last year, I remember blogging about it here.There had been a lot of opportunities to visit the museum, but schedule conflict didn't permit me.

It is dubbed as the "first world class museum...

The Pizza Story and 3M Pizza

Do you guys remember 3M Pizza? Who can forget the brand. Even before we hailed a "cab", "shake" it like mad, and think of nipa "hut", we think of 3M pizza if we want affordable pizza which is unpretentious and truly Filipino.Last night, we had a New Hire Snack-out to welcome our new hires in the team. We are a team of around 60 plus members, and our management thought that it is important to make the new hires feel welcome and make them feel part...

A Thank You Note for My Mom

Do you always write notes to your mom? or send a message, or just say I Love You? I don't. The last note I left for her was when I left the house, and I wrote that I was leaving early for work. Then of course, the note which was printed on the card together with the flowers I sent her last Valentine's Day. I am just not sure if the text message I sent a few minutes before I flew to my assignment in Indonesia counts.. You see, I am not always...

I went to SM The Block Atrium last Saturday morning, and found this scene. People are raising their smart phones, swirling around, aiming and catching something. Nope, there is no alien invasion reported and the people were not hypnotized or under spell. They are catching butterflies!Why butterflies?

Will I Glow With Gloww?

I just felt that I need to pamper myself this weekend. I need to visit my derma, get a haircut and hair treatment, start with my exercise regimen (again), and get glow-ing. My life has been exciting, yet stressful in the past months. I feel so unpretty. Then I found this box in my room. I remember receiving this pack days before the business trip, and I think it is perfect to try this product. I need to glow!This picture was taken last month during...

American Pie: The Reunion - Funny and Sexy Film with Values!

I am not sure what your age was when people started looking at an Apple Pie differently. I was in my freshmen year, and I have seen the film with my friends. I am talking about American Pie (who doesn't know the film?). This is one film I can watch over and over, and I would laugh harder the same way the first time I have seen it. I have actually seen the other American Pie series - American Pie 2 and American Wedding.  The other spin-offs American...
