EARLY MORNING CRAZY
I must have been crazy to wake up at 6:00AM on a Saturday, to go to U.P. and jog!
Everyone who knows me can attest that I don’t like exerting too much effort on everything. If there’s an easy way to do things, then that’s for me.
So when my friends asked if I wanted to go to U.P. to jog, I don’t know what came over me that I said yes. Maybe it’s the Sagada...

ON TOP OF THE WORLD
I went to Sagada last weekend, on a whim. I can’t believe I said yes, especially since it was so far, and I’m with friends.
We rode the bus to Bontoc, I didn’t even have time to change from the clothes I wore to work!
We arrived at around 10:00am in Sagada, and the first thing we did was eat!
They had delicious food! This is roast chicken with rosemary.
I had sizzling...

ENTER THE DRAGON
I covered the Grand Launch of Sycamore Heights, the latest development in luxurious Tagaytay Highlands.
The latest addition to Lakeside Fairways boasts of world class amenities, and with its Asian Contemporary theme, the best time to launch was during the Chinese New Year.
It was a night of green elegance, with the house designs made by architectural firm, L.V. Locsin and Partners used the...

HERE WE GO AGAIN.
If I know one thing about myself, it’s that I have this tendency to dwell on the extremes of my emotions.
If I’m happy, I’m super happy. If I’m mad, I’m super mad. Like that. And right now, I’m super frustrated.
It’s 2012 for heaven’s sake! And where, I ask myself, am I? Have I reached my goal for the past year? Or am I still navigating in a world...

MAKE A STATEMENT
This black leather tote from Jason Wu is simple,but the neon lining makes it stand out. It reminds me of a biker riding in the dark, but it works for me.
They say tangerine is the lucky color for this year, so why not bring a little luck with you with this Reed Krakoff bag? I’ve expressed my love for this particular style before, and in this color, I’m so sold.
I’m placing,...

NATURE CALLS AND CERULEAN DREAMS
I’m seriously in need of inspiration right now. I feel so blah, and I don’t think it’s right, given that it’s the first month of the year! So this long weekend will hopefully ignite the dwindling fire.
Right now I’m busy trying to find old photos I discarded the first time, and trying to post process them into something…else.
Can’t wait for...

CARRY SOME COLORS
It’s all about colors when it comes to bags!
Gucci:
Marc Jacobs:
Tod’s:
I love these colors! They will surely give the much needed pop of color when wearing muted neutrals.
I’m back to wearing uniforms at work! It feels like college all over again. I’m actually happy I get to have uniforms, because it gets tiring to think of something to wear every morning....

SO IT ENDS TO LET ANOTHER BEGIN
I know it’s a little late for a year ender post, since we’re all way into January. But it’s only the 5th tomorrow, so I guess there’s still time.
A lot has happened the past year, some good, some bad, some worse. All in all 2011 did a balancing act on how I felt about it.
This year, I got hired for my second job, and while it was a far departure from my previous one, I...

SAY GOODBYE TO THE YEAR THAT WAS
Spent the New Year in Tagaytay. I love it here, so peaceful. There’s no smell of gunpowder and deafening noises courtesy of five stars and triangles.
I walked around the front and back yards to take photos of the surroundings. I’ve taken so many photos of the same plants and flowers, but they always come out different every time. Nature is amazing.
I also bought some...

Happy new Year!
2011 has been a roller coaster ride! I originally wanted to write my year end entry, but typing on a tablet is hard.
With that excuse hopefully working, I wish everyone the best for the coming year!

MERRY CHRISTMAS
We had an impromptu shoot at the yard after our dinner, so please excuse the home clothes. I literally had to throw on the first blazer I saw! Hahaha!
I love these photos, I’m going to print them out and display them around the house. Merry Christmas!

CHRISTMAS WISHING: CELINE
I am loving Celine bags right now. I just discovered the brand recently, thanks to my hopping of fashion blogs.
Aside from the widely popular Celine Luggage tote, which I totally adore, these two bags are also on my Celine wishlist.
I love the bright cobalt blue on the top handle, and the shape is unique, yet functional.
And this, don’t even try and ask me why I like this. The orange...

While waiting for our turn to take a photo with Christian Bautista, my friends and I took photos of ourselves.

THE KING OF HIS OWN EMPIRE
My friend who works at Megaworld invited me to see Christian Bautista in concert the Venice Piazza at Mckinley Hill. I went with two of my officemates.
The event started with Samantha of Easy Rock hosting. She has an amazing voice! I’m a fan since I only listen to 96.3 Easy Rock, their songs are oh so good.
Christian Bautista is good looking. I can say that for sure, he also has...

CHRISTMAS AT THE GRANDE
My first company christmas party happened last night at the Belle Grande Sales Pavilion in Pasay. The theme was Las Vegas, and the first thing that came to my mind was the opulence the theme brings.
The food was delicious!
I had steak, fish fillet in lemon butter sauce, paella, and vegetables.
There was an awarding ceremony for employees that have spent over 10 to 20...

MULBERRY BAYSWATER
The Mulberry Bayswater is one of the bags in my designer wishlist. I love its classic design and comes in every color I love! It’s even available in beloved leopard!
When I have enough money, I’m getting the Bayswater in every color!

PLANNING 2012
I got my very first Starbucks planner! Yay! I would like to thank my super nice officemates who bought coffee and generously gave me their stickers! Donations lang ang peg!
I picked the Cherry planner.
I love the wood cover! Excited lang ako kasi this is the first time I managed to “collect” all stickers! Usually I’d stop after five stickers.
Oh look, I have a cute...

EIGHTY TWO OR EIGHT THREE
Had a small celebration at our house for my lola’s birthday, and to bless the newly renovated house.
I arrived quite late, as the priest had already started with the blessing. I rushed to get my camera (because apparently I’m the only one who “could” take photos).
Malnourished lechon.
Food!
The balloons say 83, but the cake’s candle says 82. I got confused!...

EXPLORE WITH FORD IN 2012
As I was driving along EDSA one morning, I saw this futuristic looking SUV beside my car. I had to take a lot of glances, because I can’t tell what model it is.
As the car sped away, I saw the familiar blue oval emblem. It was the new Ford Explorer! I watched in awe (weh!) as the sleek vehicle weaved through the traffic.
It looks so sharp!
I’d bet the new look would go great...

SEASONS OF GOLD AND BLACK
I’m moving out of my area at the office. We’re going to sort of upgrade our work area so we were advised that we were going to move a lot of files and folders. I didn’t want any dirt to register on my clothes, so I wore black.
Maybe this change of scenery will ignite the dwindling flame that is my inspiration (deep lang). Anyyywaaay I went home tonight and saw lights in front of...

CHRISTMAS LIGHTS AND LONELY NIGHTS
I don’t want my last month for 2011 end up on a lonely note. I want it to end with me and everyone around me smiling and laughing, the way we all should be.
Tonight, to counter this lingering sadness during the Christmas season, I strung christmas lights onto our cabinet, and took photos. It cheered me up, somewhat.
Oh and I’m already 10 months old. My career at Belle, that is....

DO I HAVE TOO MUCH ON MY PLATE?
I don’t know why, but lately I feel overwhelmed.
I don’t get it.
I admit I am doing a lot of stuff, but this is manageable compared to senior year back in college. Maybe it’s the way I look at things, that I look at them as tasks that I NEED to do, not tasks I WANT to do. You know? Mahirap nga naman gawin ang isang bagay na ayaw mo, di ba? But it’s not okay, especially...

NAGMAMADALI KA BA?
People are always in a rush.
I’ve noticed in others, and in myself, that most of the time, we get angry when something’s blocking our way. Nothing wrong with that, after all, who would want to have obstacles in their way?
The problem is, whenever I drive, I always see cars weaving in and out of the lanes, swerving to the left, to the right. Kung saan mas mabilis ang galaw, dun sila....

MY DARK SIDE
I attended the B.U.M. Grand Fashion Show in Mall of Asia yesterday.
They mixed fashion and cosplay together, perfect for their target market. I’ve always looked to anime/manga for inspirations. I can’t count the times I wanted to have a coat or a jacket made inspired by a certain anime (like the ever popular Akatsuki cloak.)
I am awed by cosplayers, really. I can’t imagine...

CHARLES AND KEITH
Ever since Charles and Keith opened in Gateway, I had one more go-to place to look for bags. I already got one for my birthday, and I’ve been eyeing some more designs:
I can only get one per month, given my current financial situation. Haha!

TWENTY TWO AND COUNTING
I haven’t blogged about my birthday yesterday, simply because I had nothing to say.
With lack of anything else to say, I’m just announcing I just became older.
