Ski Teal We Drop

Move Over Zoya. At Least for now. Seriously, this nail polish color by OPI is haunting me. Look at this. Images from Le Journal de Mademoiselle C. More than haunting, it is taunting me. Why? Because I don't know where to buy it locally! ARGH. I have found a supplier but she said the next...

Family Band

Whenever I listen to "family" bands such as the Corrs, I get envious and wish that my brothers, sister and I have formed our own band. Earlier on, we had our own expertise: my brothers were in to guitars and drums, I'm into singing and piano, and my sister, well, she can manage us. Hahaha. We used to sing and play instruments after family dinners, and boy those were really fun. We used to check out...

Had a date with my hubby last night... Pa-glamour effect ba? Hahaha! I think all married couples should spend at least once a week having dinner, watching a movie, walking, drinking, or whatever. Just the two of them. I don't know, maybe it is to compensate for those times when you just want to...

Vogue celebrates its 120th year and what way to celebrate than to have the thickest Vogue ish to date! That's Lady Gaga on the cover! I know that the Sept issues of Vogue US always gets sold out, so two weeks before, I went to National Bookstore and smooth-talked the person in charge to make sure...

Eanna is turning 5 in two weeks time, and though initially I didn't want to have a big party for her (gotta save save save), I guess both hubby and I couldn't resist throwing our darling girl a party. It's going to be very simple indeed... Party at mcDonald's! The obvious theme is Disney Princesses...

Long Weekend part 2

Ok, so here's the official post. Hehehe. My parents invited us to to join them over the long weekend at Canyon Cove in Nasugbu Batangas. We've been here a couple of times, and it is a good place to stay, with a nice shoreline plus a big pool for those who don't want to hit the beach. It was a bit...

After a couple of cancellations, Eanna's ballet classes resumed today. The teachers have yet to advise when the makeup classes will be, so at least that's currently being taken care of. What's good to know this morning was that Eanna's movements are getting better, and shall I say graceful. I really...

Gotta love Miranda Kerr. Not only does he have my (former) man (hahahaha!), she also has good fashion style. Here she wears simple clothing, but she's so put together! Let's see if I can try this look (yes, complete with the heels)....

Get Naked!

A little over a week ago, I had my lashes done in Xtensions Greenhills, thanks to the Groupon vouchers that I had purchased 2 months ago. I really liked the look of it, but for some reason (psychological I guess), I felt it wasn't for me. I was conscious that there was something attached to me, and...

Lately I've been listening to Maroon 5's latest album, "Overexposed" and I must say that I truly enjoyed this album. Very upbeat and danceable enough that even my darling daughter loves listening to the album. Our current favorite is Payphone (not a surprise), the remix version, that is. Eanna keeps...

Angry Skies

We are yet again experiencing angry skies, heavy rains, and flooded areas. This is a view from our balcony, which does not reflect the real situation of the streets out there. Lots of pictures in FB showing the knee-deep (and even some shoulder-deep) floods. I pray for those who are affected....

Dreaming of Beach

No comments

Funny, just when the rainy season came in, I have thoughts about the beach and how it feels to be one with nature (wow, heavy huh?). Maybe its because I longed for those serene moments when you stare into the horizon while listening to the waves, pondering about life. Maybe it is also because I need some inspiration to keep me going, to keep me engaged and motivated to "stay where I am right now."...

Time flies really really fast. In a little over a month, my baby girl will turn... 5!!!!! Goodness, it seems that she no longer is a baby - she's becoming all the more independent, more talkative, decides on her own, etc etc. And she does want to tell people that she is 5 years old, even she's not there yet. Hahaha. Anyways, I need to come up with something already for Eanna's 5th birthday party....

Still an ENFJ

Ok fine. I took another test and the result was the same. So does that mean that I really am an ENFJ??? Your Personality is Very Rare (ENFJ) Your personality type is dramatic, expressive, proud, and demanding. Only about 4% of all people have your personality, including 5% of all women and...

Home Insurance Woes

Finally. My home insurance (Fire Insurance and Mortgage Redemption Insurance) woes are over. I hope. I had to deal with my concerns for 2 days with BDO, and thank goodness I finally got to pay and settle. What's irritating about it was the fact that their customer service isn't that great, unless you call them up then you would feel a bit of a sympathy and that they truly were sorry for the confusion...

How true....? You Are An ENFJ The Giver You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and you usually succeed. Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections. Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down. You find the most energy and...
