    photo of the day/ My first dog ever!

    Here's my first dog ever!!! Well it's not really like the first dog that 
    I have taken care of but this dog is like someone (or is he a thing? haha )that I personally bought . He's a Japanese Spitz that's why his given name is Yatchang . I think the previous owner is watching too much tv haha!

    let's stalk/ it's a boy! 07/09/14



    My sister Michelle's 3rd baby boy! A 2 point something pound , fair, handsome with tiny dimples :)




    Babies today are different, that's what I'm hearing. If babies before would just love sleeping for the first month ,this baby is already opening his eyes just after coming out from the operating room. I guess he cannot wait to meet us :)

    picture of the day

       Early morning of New  Year , just after work :)


    product review/ ELF TONE CORRECTING CONCEALER

      
     WARNING : THIS REVIEW IS FOR BEGINNERS  IN MAKE UP LIKE ME !!! :D

    Alright,  this is the first liquid concealer that I bought so I would like to share what a newbie thinks about the product. The first concealer that I bought is a pencil concealer, I didn't finish it off because it tends to be cakey and it doesn't cover all my blemishes. The 2nd concealer that I bought is a concealer in a lipstick form :) which does the same thing because my skin is dry, even if I always wear moisturizers on. Then here comes this liquid concealer w/c i lurvee!. It's easy to blend and for some reason it smells like candy to me :)                                                                  
    this is the sponge that it comes with
    It claims to have safe,gentle formula which is a plus for sensitive skin . I bought this for Php.130  and it contains 0.08oz/2.3g of product in it. 
         On the packaging: 
    • Hides complexion imperfection
    • Evens out skin tone
    • natural looking, silky smooth coverage
    with regards to this claims I have a few photos to compare, be the judge, the photos are not edited, no filters 

    1. I'm wearing  Olay Natural White 

    2.I'm wearing FX tinted moisturizer

    3. I'm wearing Elf tone correcting concealer with no powder 

    COMPARISON





    so that's it, this is my favorite concealer as of the moment . I hope it helped :)

    A Letter to My 16 Year Old Self



    Dear Me,

           You're now in college. I know things are different from the way it used to be. You're not going to the fields, feeding pigs  and thinking about the things you need to do at home anymore. You are now free, yes free! Nobody is waiting at your boarding house and asking you to do stuff.  You can eat what and when you want to, wash the plates if you want to, sleep the whole day if you want to without worrying about the things you didn't do . Don't go home if you want to. That was the best things about being in  college :D but I know that you know that  there is no such absolute freedom because you're being guided by what you believe. You're so pure ,innocent and never been kissed!

        As days goes by you probably notice something different in your environment . You get to meet other people and maybe get influenced . You may try new things but I know you'll not do some drastic changes in your life.  I know you we're culture shocked when your friends friend is looking for somebody to have $e*  with since she doesn't want to do it with his foreigner boyfriend until she was able to do it with a Filipino man. For a promdi like you and anyone with self worth or somebody who knows how to say "what ifs" won't ever do that.

        You don't have a boyfriend? that's fine , you never had one all your life.You will eventually have one in the near future. Don't worry about your friend who's convincing you to try having a boyfriend . He's just jealous that that you're innocent and he's not. Anyway he's always there, your best friend . He will take care of you, advise you and help you if you need a hand.

        You don't have any viand on your table while studying? don't worry about that, anyway you never  ran out of rice which other people don't even have. That's okey if you don't have something to pay for your photocopy you can work it out . Get a copy once you have money or just copy the important details on your notebook. It doesn't make difference anyway. You even get higher scores than those people with the complete copy. Everything will be fine .

        I'm so proud of you . You'll meet more people and challenges in life, it never ends . You'll  fail  a lot of times and  in the future but I know that everything happens for a reason. God will never leave you alone . He always makes a way.

    P.S you'll meet a wonderful man in the near future :D

    Love and prayers,

    Your 28 years old you



    here's another nail art :)

    Something that I Found

          It was 2009 when I found this phone. I tried writing about it and this is exactly what it looks like on the first attempt. I'm using my phone so its kinda difficult to write it completely until I didn't have time to finish it. (from FACEBOOK notes) 


    scary phone

    October 20, 2009 at 11:45am
    it's my lunch break 4am philippine time (1pm PST) i'm at the sleeping quarterz and i can't forget the 2nd phone that i found. At first 'm having second though of wheter to return it or not because i was so mad about my digicam that was stolen in this same room... Wait my break is almst over i'l continue later

    (07/07/2014 )
    yes, remembering my first digicam ever that I bought from my own money (proud me of being able to buy my own during the early years of working) . I had videos on my memory card that I don't want to post  (Janny Michelle if you're reading this, this is about you haha! ) then it got stolen in the sleeping quarters. 
           Going back, the feeling was different from the way it was  when I first started writing this, I was single then , now that I'm married my point of view changed.  What's on the phone anyway? pictures and a videos of a dying husband from the wife's phone . Gosh! on the title of the video it says "his last few minutes"  i don't remember the exact wordings but it's somehow the same with this. I saw it , a thin man struggling with his breath . The next thing I saw was a picture of his casket, video of his wake , burial and a  family picture  in his his grave .His children were young .  It was a heart breaking story .
          So tell me, if you're the one who found the phone are you going to return it?  I received a text message on the phone asking me to return  it because of the content. I must admit, the first time I saw those , I was scared knowing that I'm in a sleeping quarter which is cold,  dark and with lots of ghost stories . I decided to return  the phone knowing that those pictures and videos we're taken like 5-6 years or more  ago if my estimation is correct.
        I met her at the office on the following day and she said after seeing my handwoven bag , "kailyan" which means kababayan . We had a short talk since I'm getting late . We still talk and say our hello's from time to time . I remembered her saying that she have 3 kids  and it was a struggle being a single mom , that she have suitors and admits that she's using them to scare her kids to study hard or she will get married. As for the kids they're doing great at school, I heard that they have high grades and their mom is being inspired by their attitude .The oldest takes care of her younger siblings while she's away and at work, specially that we are on night shift. Night shift is not normal , people around you are out and there you are sleeping, you might not even see your housemate for a week because of this schedule. 
       That was 2009 and yet this 2014 I saw her post greeting his deceased husband a happy fathers day and his memories will not be forgotten . I feel her for I also lost some of my friends who means a lot to me. You'll never forget those people who made you feel special and did something that you'll never can repay whether dead or alive. I have a few people on my list which they may not know  of since i'm not a very vocal person when it comes to my feelings. 
          Within 2009-2013 the phone got stolen/ lost and it never came back to her. Good luck to the person who kept it .   
          






    my brothers favorite, Guisado

    My younger brother AlLy introduced to me  this guisadoan . According to him they make their own noodles. This cost Php 65 . I ate all of this after my sister teased me of being "kapoy" slow with food.

    Food OverLoAD/ FORTUNE SeaFooD resTaurant

    Hi Loves!
    On the description of my video, I said that seafood is not my favorite but I get to appreciate it not just because of the   way it was cooked but also the ambiance and customer service . The picture is not clear in this video so I decided to upload it .
    We went there just for the sake of experience. This was a dinner intended for our parents unfortunately my dad's arthritis did not cooperate .
         

    In front of the restaurant


    AMBIANCE






    While waiting for the food, they gave us a complementary drink , Tea it is! If you know "ayosep" in our dialect that's how it smells hehehe  or should I say wild berries? and by the way they are so generous with water here , the waiter keeps on checking if your cup is half full because once it does they'll make it full :D





    I don't know what recipe this is but it does have tausi  and crab chunks in it. This cost more than Php. 200.00  and yes it's two pieces of eggplant ;D


    They do have a decent comfort room. It's clean, odorless and nicely decorated


    Here's the video with the original audio, hehe 

    I don't really recommend this restaurant for people in a budget but this would be a nice experience and for special occasions. Depending on the budget and the number of people invited  :)
