Pizza Pasta Night.

Last July 27, 2012 some of my high school classmates and I had a mini reunion at Carla's house to celebrate her 18th birthday! Its been a looooong since I bonded with Carla and Stelle, they are always busy and because of our schedules doesn't match. WE COULD SAY ITS A TGIF NIGHT!


We started the night by giving Carla 18 Sour Geckos her favorite candy from Kayla.
After eating Pizza and Pasta, we did what we do best! MAGKULITAN. 


Vanity with Stelle and Ivy on the Oven!

As every reunion and celebration goes, GROUP SHOTS IS ALWAYS A MUST. :)

This day is just so awesome, I mean having fun with your High School friends, You can really say that nothing beats the bond of your high school friends even though its more that 1 year since we graduated from CSD, we can still talk without awkwardness, We can still say mean stuffs to each other without getting offended, We can hit each other without getting irritated. Being with them, you can really enjoy simple bonding! We've been talking and laughing for hours and hours and we didn't notice so time we're shocked because it was really late na.

LETS MAKE ULIT OF THIS DAY FRIENDS! ♥

Re-challenge!

I am re-challenging myself to update this blog regularly! You know my post Everyday Post? well, I haven't been updating everyday due to my lack of topics to post and because of my  work, I find really hard to update because of lack of time because I am tired of working and when I get home I really feel sleepy lately! SO I AM RE-CHALLENGE MYSELF TO POST EVERY OTHER DAY! ♥

Union Jack.

Who doesn't like British? Hahaha! I, myself love everything about the Brits,their movies, the actors and the actresses, their accent, the royal family, the fashion designers and of course their fashion statement! O-M-G who wouldn't?

AND I AM IN LOVE WITH THEIR FLAG! (this is not being unpatriotic to my country! I love the Philippines!!) The Union Jack was a big hit way back before it was printed on shirts, dresses and bags, I think it was in demand when the Union Jack was printed on mugs and plates as remembrance or souvenir from someone who went to the UK. My Grandparents has a tea set printed with the Union Jack! :)

Why I like it as a Fashion Piece?


1.) It is eye-catching!



2.) Because of the color blue!



3.) they can go with any Icons like Rolling stones, Crown, or the Keep calm versions.


4.) It is simple yet glamorous in a way. :)

Well, this is only my point of view. Hihihi!

Puff puff and away.

I don't have the princess type of childhood so while growing up or should I say mostly my  high school life I made bad decisions in my life, but it doesn't mean I am a bad person. These decisions includes SMOKING.


So started smoking when I was 14 years old because I am not that expressive of myself back then but now I seldom smoke because I know now how to handle my problems and I can really express myself now. I can really tell the world if I am happy, sad, pissed or whatesoever. 

Back then and still I find it an escape when I really don't know what to do anymore. But listen now, I am not a chain smoker! I smoke yes, but not every hour or every day, I rarely smoke now unlike before every after school I smoke with my friends and every TGIF nights I smoke a lot!

I am not really proud of my escape goat when I have problems but I am sure I am not the only one who did this.

Do I regret it? Yes and No. Yes because my lungs became weaker, my asthma was triggered again when I was 14 that caused me to be hospitalized for almost two weeks. No because I honestly felt relieved when I smoke.

Will I continue smoking? I hope not, knowing that I have an awesome bestfriend and boyfriend to run to when I have problems. And my body doesn't long for the presence of a cigarette. 




Studying Latte Art.

As I said on this post, I am a newly hired Barista for McCafe. So I wanted to do better in my job by researching on Latte Art. A Cafe Latte should have a marble effect on it, you should see the espresso and milk alternately, at the moment I only two types of Latte Art, the Pre-pouring where the steam milk does it work to provide marble effect by slowly pouring the milk into the coffee. And the other one is the spiral effect where you pour the steam milk and make sure you have a velvety texture form on the middle of the cup and you will twirl it with the use of the tip of the thermometer. This is an example of pre-pouring.


So I was really curious on making other designs on a cafe so, I searched for Latter Art look how lovely these coffee arts!


I also researched some videos on the internet, and I found these two videos really helpful

 


If only I have an equipment like the one we have in the cafe here at home I will really really practice everyday to improve my Cafe Latte. And I found these McCafe photos, I just hope we can do the same in our store. 



Next time I will search on how to make the perfect Cappuccino dome! :)

Insomniac in american colors.

No need to explain. The title says it all. GOODMORNING! 
Forgive my vanity. I am just bored. 











Lastly, PLEASE FOLLOW ME! 

One late lunch.

I was supposed to post this early, but I got busy so I totally forget to blog about this day.
It was late lunch around 2 pm @ Cafe Dozo a Japanese Restaurant at Rublou brookside. What I love about this restaurant is that they just don't sell Japanese food they also sell Korean food! Their food is tasty and flavorful, also their menu has variety of foods to choose from from appetizers, burgers, sushi, bento meals, party meals and I forgot their term of their version of Shabu-Shabu and take note. You satisfy your tummy starting100 Php!


My lunch buddy Gabriel! was up for japanese food! 


I ordered Beef Bulgogi and a set of California Maki. The Bulgogi is so flavorful and its has a little spicy taste in every bite! So perfect with the warm rice and the sauce that is included in your meal. This is only for 100 pesos, Every cent is worth it! :)



Lately my addiction to SOLA has returned! I really love the Raspberry and Peach flavor of Sola flavored Iced Tea.


Gab's food was Tokantsu gaah I forgot what they his meal its complete with california maki and potato balls as its side dish and don't forget the salad. This costs for 140 with a regular Iced tea which we added extra to upsize it into large iced tea.


AG also wanted to try their milk tea, that doesn't really taste like milk more like coffee.

MY TUMMY WAS SATISFIED! AND WHAT WE SPENT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Let them eat cake.




A watched the movie Marie Antoinette. She was the French Queen around 17th Century. She became Queen in such a young age. Well the story revolves around the french court or so they say the Nobles of their time. The story is quite tragic because she was unhappy from the very beginning leaving her hometown to marry a total stranger who first did not appreciate her, yet she adapted on the way of leaving in the french court. 


She has everything a girl could ask of, Money, jewelries, clothes, and she partied all night. But you see  material things is not enough for someone to be happy. So she had an affair with a person who truly admire her more than her husband. Yet I know she already fell in love with her husband, you can see that she really cares for him and for her children.


Even though her life revolves around material things and earthly living, she has this motherly touch to her children. 
The movie actually revolves on their extravagance of  living, gambling, being a shopaholic in terms of everything, clothes, jewelries, and their gigantic hair dresses. For me, Renaissance Era was the most fashionable era ever. Look at their clothes, their hairdresses and shoes and their jewelry. :)


Things I liked about movie other than the story was, the dresses, the feathers, the hats, the jewelries all of them are in pastel colors that why they caught my attention and lastly, THE PASTRIES!! The cakes, the macaroons, the cupcakes and they rest of cute little pastries that can be paired with tea. AAAAH! I can call that heaven! :)

Surely, I can call you mine. ♥

Happy 22nd Monthsary of our forever! Better late than never eh? To my awesome boyfriend and guy best friend, Yes yes I know, I kept on repeating on how lucky I am to have you in my life because it is so true! I really can't afford to lose you! Losing you means I don't have anyone to run to when I need a shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen my rants and problems, arms to hug me when I feel lonely. Really, Life is a loooot more difficult when you and I are not together anymore.


You know how much I love to be around you to make you laugh and smile and to annoy you! YES I AM PROUD THAT I CAN ANNOY YOU.





No one can really take your place in my heart, you're like the best-est blessing God has ever given me, 2 years is not that long for me to tell those words, but seriously these past year is the happiest year of my life to have you around and yes yes I am still madly in love you. You never fail surprise me, its feels like every day I always fall for you harder than the day I really fell for you! 


Yes, I am a jealous type of girlfriend! I am really scared when you hangout with your "babaero" friends, (don't blame me, they have history of having a girlfriend and an option all the time) but hey you said I should trust you, I really really really trust like 100% but I worry a lot cause I don't want you to ever replace me with a stranger you just met or someone you used to know, What I am saying is YES I WANT YOU TO MYSELF. Ona ona, Possessive na. Atleast, I am scared to lose you right? Hihi.Sorry if out of nowhere I asked you about other girls. Sorry talaga. 





You know what you bring out the best and the worst of me, but HEY! I am a human, I am allowed to yell and be hurt just like you. Hell, I know I am kinda bipolar lately saying I love you then hating you for the next hour and being sweet like a candy the next hour, I really don't know why I am like that, I am also figuring it out myself aswell! :)


Baby, I just wanted you to know, that I really really really love you! Always have and always will! Yiee. Movie lang ang peg ko diba? Pero seryoso, I love you like you love basketball, I admire you just like you admire your body in the mirror, I want you just like a kid wants a toy. 


ISANG MALAKING THAAANK YOU FOR COMING INTO MY LIFE





So baby, CHEERS FOR OUR NEVER ENDING LOVE STORY! I love you! I hope you like the shirt I bought you! Happy 22nd bebe! ♥♥

Wishful thinking: Hair

Well I have decided that to have a new look for 2013, if we ever survived the so called "end of the world" day of 2012. Right now, I am really taking good care of my hair for me to have a healthy, bouncy and shiny hair again, so I rarely use hair iron or anything that could add damage to my hair. I am preparing for a very bold step for my hair. I am planning to curl it, Digital Perm and planning to Dip Dye it! 

I was inspired by these photos: 








Curled and color that has an attitude that could bring something new to me. So there I am inlove with colors especially color blue, So yes! I WILL DO MY BEST TO ACHIEVE DIP DYED HAIR FOR 2013. Yes, its to early to prepare but at the moment my hair is not that long, so I must do preparations as early as now.
