For The Eyes & For The Nails

An hour before finally boarding the bus to Batangas during my most recent trip to Mindoro, I decided to look around this small shopping center in Buendia near the bus station. Although there are quite a number of stores there, only one of them caught my attention. I saw this shop which sells Korean goodies. The clothes are not that pretty, the accessories are average looking but what I really liked are their sunglasses and caps! I forgot to ask how much their caps are but the sunglasses are so affordable. They have really cute designs, too bad I forgot to take a photo. I bought one for just P100.00! ▲It's cute, right? Perfect for summer! Yey!▲ ▲Please tell me it looks good on me. Lol.▲ ✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦ There's this Korean Mart near our school and they sell some cosmetics from, of course, Korea! I've been eyeing this liquid eyeliner ever since they opened the store, but I was kind of hesitant because I'm not familiar with the brand name of the cosmetics compa

I have so many photos from my short vacation in Mindoro! It took me a while to decide which photos to post here on my blog. I swear I wanted to post all the photos here. Lol. So anyway, since most of us stay in the crowded city, I guess you will enjoy looking at the photos I'm about to share. :) My Lolo's place is called Patas. It's actually part of Calapan, the city and the capital of Oriental Mindoro. It's one of those barrios far from civilization (lol) and I love the place for that very reason! The life there is very simple. Almost all of the people in the barangay are our relatives. I remember not having to worry where to eat at lunch even though I was far from Lolo's house because every house is actually a relative's! I remember sleeping over at my cousins' house. Sleepover hopping! We used to do that. The best times I spent at Lolo's were during harvest season and summer season. During the harvest season (August-October), rambutan and lanzones a

Wedding Bells!

Hello you guys! Sorry I wasn't able to visit your blog for few days. As I have mentioned on my previous entry, I went to Mindoro for the weekend . I really had fun during my 3-day stay there. It is always refreshing there! I didn't have to turn the AC on. The electric fan was just on No.1 and I was already feeling cold. The best! In case you didn't know, I went there to attend my cousin's wedding. Well technically, she's my Tita (father's cousin), but since she isn't that old to be called Tita I grew up calling her Ate. Ate Aileen used to look after me whenever I visit my Lolo's place when she was still living in the here in the Philippines (and when I was just a little girl). They moved to Canada when she was in high school so we didn't really get the chance to spend time together. Last time I bonded with her was during one of our cousin's wedding as well. Although we didn't spend so much time, we really had fun and I'm so touche

Martie, Cha and I decided to eat at Sbarro Trinoma after our class. Here are the photos of what we ordered. ▲One whole Baked Zitti for me and Cha.▲ ▲A cheesecake for me!▲ ▲I forgot what this pizza is called. Lol.▲ ▲Martie's Pasta▲ ✿ I'll be in Mindoro for the weekend for my cousin's civil wedding! So excited to go home and enjoy Lolo's place once again. :) ✿ How can someone be so slow? How can he still not get it? DUH. Do I really have to spell it out for you? Again? Puhlease. ✿ I watched Mean Girls 2 and as expected.. Disappointing! ✿ I had my hair trimmed kanina. Nothing drastic tho. Too scared to cut my hair short. My hair has always been boring.

I'm A Cheap Girl!

I love cheap finds, be it from tiangges or thrift shop, as long as I like it I'd buy it! I'm not really a brand conscious type of person. I love branded stuff and all, but I cannot always afford those that I want so raiding tiangges and thrift stores are really helpful sometimes! I remember posting an entry on my old blog about my cheap finds and I thought of posting a new one here. ▲ I bought this cropped jacket from an Ukay Store nearby! I was once so obsessed with color yellow! I miss wearing this jacket. Price : 100php-150php ▲ ▲ Flats from Baclaran. My Tita in Mindoro owns a shoe store. One time I asked her to buy me a flat shoes. I got this for free, but she got it for a really cheap price. At hello, halata ba? Overused na! lmao Whole sale Price: 120php-150php ▲ ▲The dress / top I was wearing was from an Ukay Store as well. I was on my way home from work when I saw this Ukay Store along Gil Puyat - Makati, I decided to look around and found this cute dress / top. (Hi A

One emo entry.

Whenever there's a situation where I need to introduce myself, I always describe myself as someone who is a happy person. I tell people that I find happiness in little things, that colors can cheer me up in an instant and that I do not dwell on the sad things. But you know what? I don't think I'm still that kind of person. My life isn't as happy as it was before, I'm not as cheerful as I was, I'd rather stay at home than to go out with friends. I haven't even gone out of the house since Monday. I'm always here in the room. I would go downstairs to eat or to watch the television. But mostly, I just really stay inside this room. Either checking stuff online, watching TV or just lying on the bed. I'm just so sad right now. I try to entertain myself with the things which usually make me happy, but i's not as easy as it was anymore. Before I go to sleep, there are times when I would find myself tearing up. I feel like nothing's going right in my l

Last Friday.. I was able to meet Ana , the talented person behind Anagon Collection . It was my first time to purchase from her collection and I decided to choose the meet up option to get the items. I really wanted to meet her in person because she seems really nice! You know how there are people who just look so friendly even if you just see them in photos? Ana is like that. Maybe because she almost always has that big smile sa mga photos nya. I love the paper bag! =) I'm definitely using it again. Sobrang sayang kung hindi na magagamit. :) I'm recently obsessing on everything turquoise so when I saw this, I decided to message Ana right away! I think this is by far the best turquoise ring I've seen. So excited to wear this along with my turquoise peacock necklace! So pretty right? And it looks even prettier in person. I swear I want to wear the earrings already! But I'm waiting for the right time for these to debut . Lol. I'm wearing it on my cousin's civil w
