I'm sorry for not being able to post consistently on this blog. I've been a little depressed lately, and I've been mulling over my existence for the past days and my birthday made it worst! I'll write about that on a different blog post, I don't want to spread bad vibes. So, moving on. I'm feeling quite domesticated lately, I didn't celebrate my...
They say you can never have so many of two things, good friends and shoes. I'd have to agree to that. I have running shoes, hiking shoes, stilettos, pumps, boots, wedges and of course flats. Most guys would prefer ladies in high heels because it gives grace to one's posture (if you're wearing them the right way), adds height and of course, makes you...
My laptop is an extension of my social networking life. I know in this demented world we can almost do everything with our mobile phones but trust me, nothing beats blogging and editing your photos using a laptop. I don't know if it's just me but a bigger screen always works for me. Plus the keyboard. Lol. With that being said, my laptop...
When you read this blog, kindly do so with a squealing voice because that's the closest emotion I can project as of the moment. Well, that's exaggerated but it's pretty much like that. I got 2 free tickets from Nuffnang, so I went with the boyfriend. Can you imagine? The Avengers for free? And this is not a sponsored post. I'm just ecstatic because that's my...
Ola! I've been a bit quiet these past few days because--wait for it, I attended my sister's graduation! Lol. It's something that the whole family looks forward too. It's sad that my Dad and youngest sister weren't able to attend because of complicated circumstances I choose not to discuss. Anyhoo, let me give you a little background about my sister. We haven't always been...
After my sister's graduation, the FamBam (which is never complete) decided to tour Baguio! I've been out of Baguio for 3 yrs but I can still remember some of the landmarks and all that shiz so my sister and I acted as the pretend 'tour guides'. My sister, Ney. Our first destination was the Strawberry Farm in KM6, La Trinidad. You get to...
Hiya, fellas! First off, happy earth day! Aside from getting +3 pts whenever you check in at Foursquare for enjoying the great outdoors, there are other things we need to worry about while celebrating Earth day and one of those is the #save182 project. For followers who don't live in the Philippines, you can google save 182 to know more about the movement....
Who doesn't love bullet fast Internet connection? I bet everyone of us would love to watch Gossip Girl uninterrupted, download GotYe's latest single, blog about our awesome Easter and what have you. The intarwebs is a whole different universe for all of us. But then again everything goes haywire when that movie starts to download at 0.2kbps, yes? Raise your hands if you're...
How have you been doing? I've been pretty fvcked lately. I'm having 2 different shifts at work on a weekly basis, thank God it's not daily. But I'm surviving. I don't think it does my body any good but I can still stand so I guess I'm OK? NOOOT. Stop.What this post really wanted to say is that "I had an awesome Holy...
I was trying the Blog Hop thing the other day when I stumbled upon Blog Love Therapy's Photoblog hop with the theme "What's in your makeup bag?". I wanted to join the hop but I was busy that week. Since I already have photos, might as well share what's in my makeup bag! Here is what's pretty much inside my makeup bag. The pink dotted...
Remember I had an entry about my favorite iPhone apps? Well, basically they were all social network and photography apps because my phone is very efficient when I have to connect to the intarwebs and brag about my not-so-artistic photos. Lelz. Now, I want to share some iOS games that I love to play when I'm bored and never get tired of these...
I had a very disappointing experience last Wednesday, stupidity got the best of me because I forgot the malls will be closed. I planned all my shopping on a Black Friday and that includes beach essentials such as sunblock, swimsuit, etc. Anyhoo, after rushing to look for the perfect swimsuit that will exhibit my curves (chos!), I still had time to buy other...
I'm so excited. too excited I can't even focus on work so while I try to divert my attention and try to bring myself together, I'll blog about the place were going to on Holy week. Yeaaah men! This is the first time I'll be going out of town on a Holy Week. My family being very conservative as they always are, we...
Since I got promoted, I had this feeling that I'm spending more than I should. I've been saving more money before I got promoted, which is weird because I'm supposed to save more, right? Anyhoo, I'm not here to talk about saving or anything, while I do have some (savings, that is.), I'm not really good at following my own tips. So today...
What's going on Chicharon? Hah, that's me trying to pull off a Mikey Bustos opening. Hahaha! Okay, if you don't know him you might not be laughing as hard as I am. A few weeks ago, we dined at Red Kimono before our tip to Baguio. My workplace (UP-Ayalaland Technohub) is surrounded by various restaurants which caters to different kinds of food. That particular Friday night...
My phone is my constant companion. When I'm bored I play games, when I want to share a photo I connect to the Internet, when I want to read I open my e-books. It's basically the only thing that can keep me from being bored, aside from the boyfran that is. Lelz. I don't use the phone a lot for texting and calling...
A couple of weeks ago, the boyfriend invited me to come with him to Baguio so I can meet his parents. His parentals have been in the UK for quite sometime, I met his dad when we were still in college but not his Mom. I was quite nervous, with the television feeding us with thoughts that our lover's parents are supposed to...
Being the self-absorbed person that I am, you'll probably be surprised that this post is not all about me. It's about a friend's birthday so I won't be saying a lot because I'm not good at that. If I were to write something about myself, we can take all day, that's how self-absorbed I am. Nah, kidding. Well, sort of because I've already...
Yay, summer is here! Good news, yes! Bad news? Definitely, or at least for me. Summer always translates to beach, pool parties, etc. basically anything that involves a body of water or water itself because of the sweltering heat in this tropical country that we are in. Apparently, even if summer is one of the things that I anticipate the most every year, it's also one...
This is an overdue post about some celebration we had weeks ago. Last February, Mom's side of the family had a homecoming party for one of my Uncle's/Summer-opener party for the fam bam. My extended family told me to invite the boyf so they get to interact with him longer. They have met him before it's just that he was too shy to...
Holla, fellas! I know you haven't heard from me in quite a long while, that's because I've been busy with not-so important things. February was not really a breeze, more of like air from the gasoline station. You smell it for such a short period of time yet it lingers in your nostrils. Bottom line, that air that you smelled is in no...
As someone who works in an indefinite shift or most popularly known as the shifting schedule, I seldom don't get to call my meals the way you call yours. My breakfast could be your dinner and my dinner could be your lunch. For me though, no matter what time of the day it is, my first meal is always breakfast, lunch then dinner....
I usually eat in the office before I go home in my slumber. I'm lazy to the point where If I have to eat at home, I'd buy something that you'll eventually dispense after eating. Anything that requires a plate is out of the question. Yes, that kind of lazy. Most of the time I buy from fast food chains or convenience stores, but then...
A month or so to go, i'll officially celebrate a year of assuming a different role with the company I'm currently with aka I've would have been promoted for a year in a few more days. Wow, that was a long and complicated sentence just like my life. It feels like I've been working for a long time (wow! it's only been 2...
A couple of months ago, Lovey and I went to Manila Ocean Park. I bought discounted tickets from my company and they were about to expire so we had to use them immediately. Good enough, we were able to find a compatible schedule and we paved our way into Manila Ocean Park. We went there around 12 noon, right after my shift we...
Being the voracious bitch that I am, you would've probably known by now that I love Mang Inasal. Not because the rice is unlimited but because I always feel satisfied when I eat there. I feel like P99 for a chicken is so worth it even when they haven’t had the additional things in their menu that they have now. And maybe the unlimited...
Hey, guys! I'm sort of back. Can't say that I'm back for good, because the start of the year has been pretty busy and I've been pretty lazy! I know I shouldn't for 2011 was a good year for this site. Well I think I lost my mojo because for starters, I lost my camera's memory card! :/ Photos from UPB's 2011 Pasiklaban,...
