Palawan Instagrams
I was out for 4 days and 3 nights to fly to Puerto Princesa, Palawan. The boyfriend and I celebrated our 4th anniversary by visiting the Underground River and Honda Bay and devouring seafood (read: PRAWNS) for lunch and dinner.
To make up for my blogging absences, here are some of my Instagram photos while we were there (follow me on Twitter. Hah!). From left to right:

Sunday School Girl
I want a new camera, something smaller than my Canon G10. I find it too big and heavy to carry around all day. Thanks to my iPod camera and my 5MP Blackberry phone cam for these crappy photos.
One of my recent thrift purchases is this cute wrap-around floral shorts. It was drizzling outside when I left for school but what the hell.
Him: Sarap ng tulog ng ilong mo ah.
Me: Huh? Bakit?
Him: Nakadapa.

Random Text Photos
Taking photos of printed texts with a VGA camera is just pointless. Exhibit A.
I cleaned my office desk a week ago and found this - Christmas message from our boss from last year. Nice kids receive nice presents: ‘To the beauty, brains and body that deserves more than the world can offer. I hope one day to see you spread your wings and not to be afraid of what you will be. I’ll be...

Where were you while we were getting high?
Last February, I went to Philippine Travel Mart and I got a good deal of two tickets to Tree Top Adventure in Subic at 50% off. The package includes six adventures to embark on and the normal rate is Php 1,100 per person. I got it for only Php 550. Sweet.
After being hidden inside my purse for almost a year, we finally decided to use the vouchers last month to celebrate our 47th month (hihi...

I love cheese
There are three things that I always look forward to in February: (1) Valentine’s Day, (2) UP Fairm and (3) our anniversary. If I had to choose a favorite month, it would have to be February. I love the hearts and balloons and flowers and pink-and-reds that we associate with it. I just love the cheese on top of it.
UP Fair and Valentine’s Day
UP Fair is an annual event in UP that...

The Cooking Mama Challenge: Mango Float
Remember my ultimate new year’s resolution?
Well, the first part of Cooking Mama challenge happened tonight. Best time to play in the kitchen because I was home alone. I didn’t want my family, especially my mother, to be there while I make my desperate attempts to learn how to cook. I guess my mother has become hopeless about my cooking skills that everytime she sees me at the kitchen...

Guimaras Love Spill
I’ve been meaning to post these photos from Iloilo and Guimaras since last year but it has been crazy busy at work that I only got to sort these photos out today. Thank you Chinese friends for this non-working holiday. Happy New Year.
Anyway, we had a 3D2N trip to Iloilo and Guimaras last November for our 45th month (yes, we celebrate monthsaries hihi). I got the air tickets from Cebu...

The Accidental Ombre
I spent the last day of 2011 in a cheap salon. My friend and I were itching to dye my hair before the new year so five hours before Media Noche, we headed to a friend’s salon with hopes of getting a happy new hair.
I was kind of hesitant to get a lighter shade because it has been dyed solid black a year ago. It looked like a wig lols. I’ve been wanting to have this color back but my...

An Enchanted Gala
I rarely blog about our office events and parties because I don’t want to overshare my life lol just kidding. Or maybe I just don’t want my work venting and ranting be a regular feature here. But it happens anyway. So here’s what happened last night. (This is an excuse to blog about something and/or to post my self-appreciation photos. Heh.)
We had an enchanted gala last...

Office Diaries
Every single day at work, I receive lots of harassing and stupid phone calls from clients and unknown persons. I’ve been doing it for over two years and my patience is wearing thin. Sometimes, I just want to scream or throw my keyboard away or kick my office chair so hard out of frustration. Some are cute, but other are just a tad irritating. Here goes my office diaries:
Me: Two Bedroom...

The Cooking Mama Challenge: Recipes
After some grueling weeks of serious research and contemplation lols, I finally came up with a decent list of recipes for my New Year’s Resolution: The Cooking Mama Challenge.
Again, please remember that I have zero knowledge of cooking that even frying an egg is very challenging for me. Even cracking an egg open ad separating the egg yolk is quite a problem. So, don’t be surprised if...

The Cooking Mama Challenge
Every year, we make a list of our New Year’s resolution or goals or projects, and oftentimes, we fail to do it. It seems like whatever list you make at the beginning of the year is definitely doomed to fail by the end of the month. Hah. THEY. JUST. DON’T. STICK.
Considering the stuff I juggle every week -work, school, business, it will be hard to commit to 3, 5 or 10 resolutions,...

Q&A
The first week of the year has been crazy busy that “sleep” sounds so foreign to me now. Work has been so cruel and we expect it to be that way until the end of the month. It’s like the universe is forcing me to quit this job. But my bank account tells me otherwise. I’m confused.
I miss blogging and I have lots of unfinished blog posts in my Drafts. In the meantime, let...

Things I did during the last 24 hours of 2011
12:00 AM Still awake and wasting some time on the internet. Facebook and Twitter and Tumblr. Oh, joy.
12:08 AM I was reminded of airline promos during New Year’s Eve by a tweet from a friend. So I started checking on Cebu Pacific, Air Philippines and Zest Air.
12:19 AM Yay Air Philippines on sale! I instantly booked a flight to Puerto Princesa for our fourth anniversary in February....

I will blog more often.
Give me additional 10 hours per day then I could do that and all the other things that I wish to do every single day (eg. read a good book, take beautiful photos, watch at least one movie per day, play with our adorable dogs and sleep).
One of my goals and aspirations for 2012 is to blog more often. Don’ ask me why ‘cause I don’t even know why I blog. Why do you blog? I’m...

Christmas Day
We didn’t go to mass on Christmas Eve for the first time. We just watched Alvin and the Chipmunks and PBB on TV then waited until 11pm before we started our Noche Buena and exchange gifts. Anyway, it’s better than yawning a hundred times during a mass. That always happens to me.
Okay my vanity shot goes first. My sisters and I decided to dress up a little because it’s...

So, hello to my ever generous friends and lovers out there. I hope it is not too late to drop in my wishlist for the year. Please...

Awful things that happen to me everyday
It’s Monday again tomorrow so let me rant ‘cause I just have to let it out.
Waking up really early at 05:30 am for work that starts at 09:00 am.
Waiting for a bus that can accommodate another passenger which usually takes 10 to 20 minutes.
Commuting to work by riding a crowded bus where I have to stand for almost two hours.
Getting stuck in heavy traffic for at least 20 minutes.

How was your weekend?
Our last out-of-town trip for this year - Iloilo. We celebrated our 45th mon th of togetherness by binge eating in Iloilo, touring around Guimaras Island and visiting a UNESCO World Heritage Site called Miag-ao Church. Perfect.
PS. The boyfriend and I downloaded these apps called Diptic and Label Dispenser, hence, this post lol.

BS Tourism is information overload, a little bit of everything - Economics, Accounting, Tourism Law, yadda yadda. Just hit the books when you when you have to. Have fun when there’s no exam. Best thing about our course is it involves lots of out-of-classroom activities - hotel immersion, field trips, study tours, etc. Enjoy! :)

11 Selfish Wishes on11/11/11

I wish for our hugs and kisses to last a lifetime. Fall in love with the same person day after day after day.
I wish to have more family dinners and family Sundays.

Thank you anon. Because it started out as a photo blog of some sort back in 2008. Photo blog of a really really amateur shutterbug and so Virgin Shutters. I really don’t know, err, something like that. Heh.
I love flats too, in different yummy colors. :) I have an online store that I put up with my highschool friends last July. It’s called Daily Gaga. Please follow Daily Gaga and...

I bought 5 shoes in one week
If you read this blog so often, then maybe you are one of my sisters. (Lol just kidding but it might be true). Anyway, if you read this blog so often, you’ll notice that I’m pretty frugal. I don’t spend too much on clothes, bags, shoes, etc. and I only do serious shopping in thrift stores. I never buy those overpriced pieces of fabric we find at the malls. Sheesh.
And I rarely...

Everything is bokeh to me.
Yes, that’s right. Everything is bokeh to me ‘cause I have blurry eyesight. i don’t want to sound negative and say that my eyes are almost useless so let’s look at the brighter side and let’s just say that I have bokeh vision. ‘Yan, may art pa rin.
Last month, I dropped by the Executive Optical to buy a new pair of contact lens. I was surprised to know that...
