Happy Ramblings

Hey everyone! I am sorry for not being able to visit your blogs. I just got back from a short trip with my family. I love the cold weather in Baguio, but really, I love going to the beach more! Okay, I don't think it's right to complain. :P So anyway, just like any other vacation blog entries, I'm going to bombard you with photos! Here we go.  First things first. We left Manila last Friday and we checked in at Recedencia Alekzandra . It's decent transient home with two rooms (5 beds) and a bathroom. The kitchen has the cooking utensils that you might need if you want to cook. What I love about this transient home is that it's kind of country inspired. Plus, all rooms has a 'balcony view'/ Lol.  And here's the view at our 'balcony' :P  Here's how it looks inside. Nothing fancy, really. And... That's my father. We took a nap first before exploring the city of pines!  Oh, wait. I did not take a nap. I curled my hair!

When it comes to my hair, I always play safe. Hair check! Last time I had my hair really short? Hmmm, when I was in elementary school! I think I was in second grade? I don't remember if it was my grandmother or my mother who decided that I should have my hair cut short. I was just a little kid so I had no choice but to oblige. I obviously did not like how it turned out. It was actually because of that experience that I don't ever want to make a dramatic change to my hair. I remember how some of my classmates made a not so good comment with my then new haircut. THE hair can actually make you (feel) really ugly or pretty. So hair matters, right? RIGHT??? See, it's always in (almost) the same length. Straight. The only difference I actually make is the fringe. I either have it pulled back, full, side swept or none at all! And my face is asymmetrical (plus big) so yeah. I really don't have that much choice. I don't have the face which is flattering to short h

Lately, I have been playing with the make up that I have. And also, I've been watching make up gurus once again. I started watching make up tutorials when Michelle Phan was just starting to get famous. You know, when she used to film in her room and with her then signature background music and very calm voice. I still love her, it's just that, since I went back watching make up tutorials few months back, I noticed how she changed! In a good way, of course. I am so happy for her! Anyway, enough of Michelle and back to me and my make up. lol. I do not have so much, but I think I have a lot for someone who claims that she's not into make up! Especially lipsticks. So the main reason why I went back to watching Michelle Phan and started watching other gurus is because of the stuff that my Aunt gave me.  I do not want to put those make up into waste, so I thought, why not give it a try! Ha! I started to really use make up in college, but it had to be minimal or else, Siste

Aside from Manila weather and us girls, what else is hot? HAHA. Okay. Laaaaame way to start a blog entry! I honestly do not know how to start this entry. I wanted to write something interesting to keep you guys reading, but my writing skill sucks. Do we even call it a skill even if we suck at it? Psh. Since I do not know how to make this an interesting start, I'll tell you friends what I'll be blogging about. It's my sister's graduation! Yay! There, I finally said! So I'll go ahead and let the pictures do the talking! GAME! So let me start by telling you guys how difficult it was to find a dress for my sister, Krizza. Unlike me and my youngest sister, Kiara, Krizza is not too girly. She's more of a Pants-Vneck kind of girl! She's not into accessories and dresses. We went from one mall to another just to buy her dress and shoes! I really like the dress. It's simple, classy and sexy! We found it at People Are People. Krizza was still wearing flats i

I met up with some of my college friends last April 9, 2013. It is always so difficult to get everyone together, so when one of the girls suggested that we meet on the 9th, I was one of the firsts who confirmed! The last time that we had a get together was in January, when one of our friends came back from Australia. Which reminds me, ugh, I was not able to blog about that. Aaaanyway, back to the get together. As always, it took me some time to decide on what to wear and get myself ready for the get together. I had to meet up and get new stocks for my online shop in the morning and I rushed back home to make it to our 2PM meeting time! On that day, it wasn't as hot as it usually is since summer officially started. It even looked like it was going to rain, so I decided to wear a 3/4 shirt and a skater skirt. Ha! Top & Belt: Forever21 || Skirt: Greenhills || Accessories: 999 Mall Sooooo, I was supposed to get my OTD photo taken by my friend, Hazel, but I don't kn

I got these goodies few months ago. I know, I know. Just goes to show that I am not that much of a make up person. Well, I like them make ups, but you know, not as much as I love dresses or bags! Or books! I think I have mentioned before that my Tito and Tita work for these brands and they usually send me make up. Make ups which I barely use. As much as I'd love to keep everything with me, I know that it'll only go to waste so I decided to give away some on my online store ( Bubblish Shop ) when I just opened!  What I kept with me are the MAC Plumful lipstick, liquid foundation, loose powder, studio fix powder foundation and lip hydrant; Clinique Make Up Palette and Bobbie Brown Mascara.  Sorry for my all wrinkled up bed linen. Lol. I love the colors in this palette. Not too much for a person like me. HAHA. I mean, I am not really experimental when it comes to make up. All I know is the basic! This is actually perfect! And of course, thi
