I finally finished designing my Stardew Valley farmhouse after years (or almost a decade!) of playing. I did try designing it before, but I guess I did it haphazardly. This time, I took my time deciding on what stuff to place in each room and make the farmhouse the ‘house of my dreams’ in real […]
So after my orange hair faded (I used MerrySun Cellowax in Fiery Orange), this time I tried the Merry Sun Cellowax Rose Gold semi-permanent dye. I’ve been dyeing my hair bold colors for almost 2 years now and I’m telling you, nakaka-addict magpalit-palit ng kulay. So this is how my rose gold hair looked like. […]
After a few weeks of sporting Rose Gold hair, my next chosen hair color is Pink. I used a sachet of Merry Sun Cellowax Pink. They always say that morenas shouldn’t dye their hair pink, but I disagree. Try all the colors if you want to. Be experimental and don’t let other people’s judgement to […]
When I was in my 20s, skin care wasn’t my priority. I didn’t even wear sunscreen on many occasions that I needed to. When I turned 30 and noticed that my skin got a little drier and fine lines looked more visible, that’s the only time that I invested on skin care products. I don’t […]
It was late last year when I started dyeing my hair blonde to prep for my dream hair color, Purple. After trying two purple shades this year (Ash Purple & Orchid Purple), my hair is back to its uneven blonde shade. I’m not liking it one bit because my black grown-out roots are showing at […]
Last month, I finally let one of my life-long dreams come true — dye my hair purple. 🙂 I’m obsessed with the color purple since forever, so I included it in my Life List. Nakaka-proud kasi the process wasn’t all that pretty and easy, and I have a super sensitive scalp pa. So after two […]
I am obsessed with documenting our family life so one of my ongoing projects is creating Family Yearbooks. Actually I just started last year. I collected our 2018 photos (the previous year syempre, kasi hindi pa tapos ang 2019) and then I selected a few na pwede kong ilagay sa yearbook. I am trying to […]
Mega Prime Quality: Holiday Workshop for Moms I was invited last weekend to an enjoyable event for moms — a holiday workshop hosted by Mega Prime Quality to help moms prepare for the challenges of the holiday season, especially in the kitchen. Because moms are the most stressed when it comes to preparing for the […]
We went to Quezon Memorial Circle a few weeks ago for some family time and it was also the first time that we visited the Presidential Car Museum or Museo ng Pampangulong Sasakyan. It was opened to the public just last year so if you haven’t been there yet, here’s a sneak peek of what […]
Raising kids in the digital age is a real challenge. They need to be more active (I enrolled Z last summer in a Parkour Workshop by Ninja Academy PH and N is only allowed to use his tablet every weekend) so getting my kids off their gadgets is a goal for me on a regular […]
Last 2018 my tita told me about their church’s charity event at an orphanage in Quezon City. Early this year when my son’s 6th birthday was coming up, I was thinking about what to do for his birthday. An outing? A new kiddie activity? A salo-salo at home? A simple dinner in a restaurant? […]
Aside from kuya Z’s summer classes at Consis Better Learning Center, this summer 2019 I want to enroll him in a sports program. My son is growing up weird & nerdy (yep, we’re a nerd family), so I want him to take on fitness and wellness activities to re-balance his lifestyle. Milo Summer Sports Clinics […]
I’ve recently discovered a safe hair dye for my kids! And since our ber months are jampacked with events and kiddie parties, it’s super timely that we have 2 bottles of Cospray Washable Haircolor Spray. Buy your Cospray Haircolor Spray here: https://shp.ee/yszt4i9 Why Do We Love Cospray Haircolor for Kids? It’s WASHABLE. You […]
Mother’s Day last year the hubby gifted me a Canon PIXMA G2000 All-In-One Printer. He’s never the “flowers, clothes, bags, and expensive jewelry” kinda guy. His way of showing ‘sweetness’ is in the form of an iPod, mobile phones, a 3DS game, a wrist watch, a digital camera, an Instax camera, and now, a printer. […]
It is my ultimate dream to visit Santorini, but for now, dito muna ako maglalagi — sa Kantorini Food Park! Kantorini Food Park is the newest casual dining destination along Katipunan Avenue, Quezon City. When my cousin invited me to visit the place, I had a sudden rush of nostalgia, kasi lagi ako sa Katip […]
Ian Darcy Perfume Review My last perfume bottle will be empty soon so I thought of buying myself another one. Pero naman, kailangan bang gumastos ng sobra para lang maging mabango? 🙂 I’m so happy that I found out about Ian Darcy Oil-Rich Fragrance Collections. Ian and I have known each other through blogging a […]
Lingokids – English for Kids English is perceived to be the universal language and here in the Philippines, it has become our second language. Some Filipino families even use English as their main language. As a bilingual family, my kids are learning two languages at a time. My eldest attended a progressive preschool for 2 […]
I enjoy being a Northern girl because honestly, the north is a food haven. We have great restos in Maginhawa and Kapitolyo, a number shopping malls with good places to dine in, and street food vendors that can be found practically everywhere – at every corner, in every street. Classes were suspended last Monday due […]
Reading Workshop My sister and my son joined the Scholastic Summer Reading Fun Workshop two weeks ago and they had a fun-filled morning after finishing all the activities prepared for them. Storytelling After a brief introduction, the teacher read a story by Dr. Seuss, I Wish That I Had Duck Feet. It is about a kid who wishes […]
This summer 2016, Z and my sister L joined the McDO Kiddie Crew Summer Workshop. It was both their first time to attend McDo Kiddie Crew so they were super excited! Registration Fee: PHP 650.00 (includes T-shirt, cap, chef’s hat, ID with lace, Apron, bag, workshop materials, certificate, and meals for 5 days) Orientation […]
My dark roots have already grown out so I need some sweet color touch-up for the holidays. So I’ve recently tried a new hair dye brand, Revia Hair Color. I was quite hesitant to dye my hair again (actually I was planning to cut my hair short because of dryness) but I don’t want to […]
I passed by Yoshinoya last month and saw their Yoshikido Summer Workshop poster. I haven’t enrolled Z in any summer workshops for kids so my husband and I have decided to give it a go. The Yoshikido summer workshop is open for kids 4-10 years old. Registration fee is PhP 800 for a 5-day workshop […]
