Season Decor - Year 2

FUN WAY TO GET ORGANISED WITH P-TOUCH D200KT

THE SPA EXPERIENCE

FUJIFILM MINI INSTAX 9 - CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEA

I have this thing over instant print cameras. It's fascinating to see pictures develop in front of your very own eyes in less than a minute or so. But since I am always on a tipid mode (for my own self), this particular goal always ends up on the bottom of my list every single year. I let pass of the previous mini series from fujifilm but this year I told myself I got to have one.

HELLO KITTY RUN MANILA

Okay, so whatever happened to the very first Hello Kitty Run Manila event?

THE SPA

Finally got a dose (of a much needed) relaxation at The Spa Alabang. Ten months after this gift card was handed to me. This was my prize during our Company's Christmas party of 2016. After so many tries, finally my husband allowed me to visit the spa and send me there, before we headed to MOA last Saturday. So my long (overdue) wait is over. Naawa na ata dahil alam nya kung gano ako ka stress sa mga ganap ng nagdaang buwan hahahaha... Swe....at. Hehehe..

FAB FINDS! BACK TO SCHOOL HAUL

It's back to school season and we got a grade schooler!

OUR BEDROOM MAKEOVER PROJECT

Charan!!!.. So the long weekend is over and so far these are the lists of what we have accomplished on our BEDROOM MAKEOVER Project. 

MY WARDROBE REHAB EXPERIENCE

Hey y'all! hehehe kamusta kayo?! First Friday of November and last working day of the week hehehe... I basically went to work for three days because of the long weekend and tomorrow is my free day again!

Do you feel how time passes so quickly these days? so before the month ends, let me first commend the previous month - October because of so many good things it brought unto me and of how productive the month has been (he he). I am not preempting anything but the 10th month was and always been the most dormant month (at least for me). However this year it came differently, so I feel blessed and happy to be able to accomplished a lot of things during the whole month.

With some out of town trips, gala, projects to begin and event to attend to I wasn't able to write much except of the a DIY Project I posted here three (3) weeks ago. But like what I mentioned earlier, I've pretty much spent the month wisely. One of the things I am happy about was putting an end to my wardrobe dilemma. It was frustrating, irritating and at the same time a not so good sight to see every single day of my life to the point that I needed to shout

I NEED A WARDROBE REHAB!

Have you ever thought about letting go of some things you've hold onto for so long but wasn't able to do so. You know it hits you badly every single day and then you let yourself live like it for decades. That's how difficult my wardrobe/closet is  kaya napapa #hugot ako ng ganito. Imagine having a closet with limited space, full of clothing yet still giving you a headache - that's my closet. The struggle is real!

The description and the #feels... I had to filter it in black  & white
because yes, I am also embarrassed about it but at the same
time I am determined to make a change. 

HUNT FOR A NEW SKILL: VISIT KODANDA BF HOMES PARANAQUE

My first Archery experience happened late last year at Kodanda Makati branch. It was such a learning and fun experience I immediately develop fondness towards the sport. However, I wasn't able to come back in the range for a long time due to my crazy busy schedule.

Then a good news came in a month ago when I was invited to visit and play Archery once more. Moreover, this time I got to play it at their newly opened branch at BF HOMES Parañaque which happens to be a nearby town from where I lived. At last! I can conveniently return to the range and play Archery whenever I want to. This is a new offering for my fellow southerners too who are on a hunt for some new adventure. ☺

A CELEBRATION WITH A BANG!

I attempted to cross out something from my bucket list this year. Luckily I have a husband who knew exactly what to do to help me accomplish it. So for the last straw of my birthday celebration this year we visited BUCOR FIRING RANGE at Muntinlupa and did a practical shooting for the very first time in my life. What makes it more special was that my husband arranged everything to make it happen.

My interest about shooting came out of curiosity. I wanted to experience and learn the real deal about shooting responsibly and gun safety. I also wanted to overcome my fears (of some sort) and test my limits.

MY AWESOME 31ST!

It's been a week since my birthday but I feel I've been caught up in the euphoria of my recent experiences. It was such an awesome celebration with lots of fun and discoveries and so I thought of sharing the details with you. I feel so blessed and privileged because God really make things possible. I was looking forward to have a very private, quiet yet exciting and fun celebration for my 31st. It was far from grandeur but the experiences was worth remembering.

WE FELL IN LOVE WITH AKITA

I was eyeing to buy a comfortable sandals for my little girl last Monday when I remember AKITA a local brand for slippers, sandals and clogs. The first time I saw it was like a love at first sight (ha ha) basically because of the design, style and price.

I got to buy at least three pieces from its boutique in Glorietta in three different occasions. The first and second piece are exactly the same. Why? you may ask, well, basically my older sister requested to have the first one (na-arbor agad-agad) so I had no choice but to give it to her and buy a new one for me instead. Funny, I didn't ask for anything else when I came back two weeks after and ask for another pair of white glittery buckle style clog. 

MORNING AND A CUP OF HOT CHOCOLATES

My mornings will never be complete without taking a sip of a hot beverages. I have no qualms about coffee but I prefer and appreciate a cup of hot chocolate more. One morning I came to discovered a new (at least to me) set of hot beverages from PAN DE MANILA when I visited one of their stalls in Makati. I saw a variety of Spanish style hot beverages namely Cafe Mocha, Chocolate Blanco, Chocolate Con Leche, Cafe Con Leche and Chocolate Con Nueces on the shelves. Being a choco-lover of course I chose hot chocolate to pair with my tuna pandesal.

TOP TEN BEACH/POOLSIDE ESSENTIALS (by mmtanguanco)

Temperature rising, undeniably summer is fast approaching. How do you feel about it?

Well, we all know how exciting summer can be however dry season can also make our sweat gland works in madness. Real talk, too much sweating can be irritating so what better way to beat the heat of the season?  Of course by splashing thyself to the waters and yet still have fun under the sun. Now if you have plans on heading on the beach or pool in the coming days (just a friendly reminder) make sure to bring light and easy to carry (summer essential) items with you because summer is supposed to be fun and sane.

INEXPENSIVE WAYS TO CELEBRATE V-DAY

Valentines day are widely celebrated in our country. Though not considered as a public holiday you'll find a tremendous crowd lining up to have their way inside the restaurants, movie houses, flower shops or gift shops and more. However think about it, you know how most (if not all) businesses works during this time offering services or products in an extremely high price, let say bouquet of flowers, anyone? 

A GIFT LIKE NO OTHER - PSBANK KIDDIE SAVERS ACCOUNT

Last Christmas, I was thinking of giving my little girl a substantial kind of gift that she haven't had before. I wanted to make sure that it will be totally different from the usual gifts she receives in the past three years. After thinking thoroughly, I decided to open her very first savings account. I opted to delay it until the new year due to two long weekends we have for December of 2014 and with my hectic schedule, I didn't have time to go to the bank before the holidays.

WELCOMING MY NEW YEAR WITH A NEW (OUT)LOOK

#goodbyelonghair #sorrynotsorry

I had so many issues about my long dull hair for years but I was hesitant to cut it down since I also had fun trying some fancy hairstyles on it but to be honest  most of the time I'll have it tied back  (boring). I remember having a serious short hair cut in year 2010 after I gave birth to my daughter but it was just an apple cut. I've been thinking of having a pixie cut again, for after like ten (10) years (I had it way back in college). Now that I am all done with my commitments, I'm glad I went to the salon and gained strength to make it happen right after Christmas. 

A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE AT HAGOD SPA AND NAILCARE

A GOOD massage is something that I've been longing to have for so long. I've been experiencing some pains on my back, neck and shoulder area for quite some time now and my husband would frequently hear my complains about it and we usually relied on an electric massager help. I felt like I am carrying the weight of the world upon my shoulder (literally) and my muscles were already freaking out one by one from the inside. Then a blessing came in when Ms. Isay invited me to try out HAGOD Spa and Nailcare Service a perfect timing! so I decided to say YES and grab the opportunity. Read on to know more about my experience.
