There is something in this picture that inspired me in designing for our living room area. Maybe it's the rug, which I have long wanted to get for our area. Right now our color scheme is jade-y cream-y orange-y and i think I intend to keep this scheme (it goes with my investment painting hehehe),...

Dreaming of My Own Company

Since I'm in dream-mode today, why not maximize it, right? Hahaha. Anyways, I have finally decided that I would pursue studying Interior Design in PSID. This was after much thinking on what I really wanted. Tough considering that the other contenders were fashion design and culinary arts. So yup, that's the final answer. I will most likely start studying either towards the end of the year or early...

The Colorful World of Hermes

Forget the bags (for now at least). There is more to Hermes than Birkins. First, the scarves. I have long wanted to get me one of these,m but held back. After all, during that time, my income was still small and could not afford it. Well, I can't afford it all the more now since I'm no longer working...

Looks like the husband is really serious about spring cleaning the whole house! He has targeted yet another part -- my turf, the kitchen. I was thinking about this too since I really wanted to free up some space for more loot to come (hahaha). While taking out items one by one from each cabinet, we...

On Using the Free Accommodation I havent used my free accommodation because we are still thinking on whether we use it locally (Bora or Batangas) or internationally (Malaysia). Using it in Canyon Cove (Nasugbu, Batangas), one of their establishments, is...

26 Ways To Keep The Music Playing

I came across this article by Lucy Torres-Gomez in the Philippine Star, and I really found it be a good, one, citing ways on how to keep the love, respect, and understanding between husband and wife (or any other couple). There's nothing new to what was written, but it gives us a compact list of reminders that we often forget because of our busy lives, and even possible our quest for self reliance...

Eanna's School Options Narrowed

No comments

My husband and I finally got to sit down and seriously discuss about Eanna's future schooling. This was after I had the parent-teacher chat at Julia Gabriel, where our little daughter is currently enrolled (EduPlay). The teacher was all praises for Eanna, highlighting her skills: fast learner, has focus, responds well, good social skills, and her good disposition and attitude towards learning while...

Re-designing our Condo

The other night I wasn't able to sleep at all, and the morning after I realized that it was because of the Bread Talk Hot Chocolate laced with Espresso. I rarely drink coffee so drinking espresso has killed my hopes in getting good sleep that night. My mind in those grueling moments went overdrive. I couldn't think of anything except design ideas for our home. I wanted a new layout for our bedroom....

My Aunt and my cousin has confirmed that yup, they are coming here in Manila to spend some vacation time this March! Last year, they initially told us of their plans but was still uncertain, which was why they have asked if we wanted to go to Canada instead. Although I would love to go back there (I loved my last stay there, where we went to different recreation centers, shopping malls, and even trips...

Nasty Black Dotlings

Has anyone ever tried using blackhead extractors in the hopes of taking out those nasty little dotlings on your face? Or do you rely on going to the derma to have those stuff professionally extracted? I am one of those who refuse to go to the derma to have facials because I simply believe that the pain after is too much for me considering that my face is mostly clear all the time. Yup, I tried a...

The husband got OC yesterday, and spring cleaned part of our house - mostly the little boxes here and there, hahaha. He unearthed items that should be thrown away already - flyers, ultra past bills, broken trinkets, etc. Then he checked out our medicine box. He frowned when he saw that not only are there medicines that we should have but don't, but also there were expired medicines already - prenatal...
