Sunday Shopping

Last night, two crazy animals were let loose at a mall in Alabang. Creatures were heard to be armed with loot and poised with a strong desire to overspend. Tsk tsk.

Yes well to lay that out, I basically just went to the mall with the BFF and spent garrulously on the "unessentials". By Unessentials, I meant, those things you can live without. But heck, I made this journal entry to talk about my shopping spree!

So now its time to break down the bare unessentials!

1) Miracle Thaw
Yes, I got an odd plate where you can defrost your frozen meat and poultry within a few minutes time. I thought its pretty cool. I hate having to defrost food over the microwave or waiting for hours just to get the meat nice and moist. This is perfect! Oh yeah, I tried it with ice last night. It works!

2) 2-in-1 Eye Shadow Pencil with Black Liquid Eye Liner
Wipee! Some eye "pretty"-ing tools! (Haha!)

3) Vintage Telephone
Yes, I like vintage stuff. So now I have a vintage looking telephone for my desk. It rings soooo loud... and it lights up too!

4) Yellow long sleeved top
There's this isolated clothes store at the back part of the mall, and I've never been in it for the years and years I've hung around that place! It's called Magarbo. And its pretty darn cool in there. Stuff are incredibly cheap.

5) 3pcs Shorts
Seriously I can never get enough shorty-shorts.

There's about 5 more other unessentials but I find that these are the ones I'm most satisfied with. Plus the rest are gifts so I'll just elaborate on those maybe when I get to hand them over for the holidays.

Happy Garrulous Spending to everyone! Mwah!

Room Revamped

Here is a before and after look of my bedroom! This was my brother's old room, and ever since I got my very own home theatre, I've just been dying just to get the place fixed. Everything except the floor tiles has been painted and I had the old shutter curtains and cabinet knobs taken out. I kept the old cabinets and my old bed frame plus added some shelves at my bedside. The rest are new. Mom got me this lovely recliner and I love her for that!

I'm trying to keep it organized and that part I'm still very much working on. If you look closely at the photo below, I left my food plate at the table. I should take that out later. Hehe.

This is my favorite place to hang in the house now but probably next to my "work station", where I am most of the time during the day. I know how important it is now to have your very own "calm" room where you can just rest and have that relaxation time for yourself. You feel better knowing where your belongings are and the less frustrated you get when you're on about your daily routines.

Haha I'm less flustered hurrying up doin things now. Lets just hope I keep up the cleanliness and "well-being" of this new sanctuary.

Happy Holidays!

Happy

December has been really lovely so far! I'm just surprisingly happy with the sudden change of events despite of the turmoil I've encountered recently. I decided to move on as quickly as possible and make a fresh start. That's only natural, isn't it? Just get back on the saddle and trut-trut along. =)

2010 has been a blast, and I'm thankful for the tons and tons of blessings. I am hoping to give something in return. So maybe in a week or two, I'll be doing some charity work with my friends and just help out.

I'm giving away some fun cameras, too. That should make some people really happy this holiday season.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Happy

A lot of strong positive energy coming into my month and I'm just trying to nourish myself with it by humbly giving it back to the world. All 25 years of my life I just thought I'd go about it and just have this "Come What May" attitude and an idea like bringing positivity was just something silly to me. I thought giving effort to this sort of thing is rather exhausting and a plain waste of time. Now I've come to realize that it does really contribute well in ones life as long as you apply it in your everyday life. You apply it everyday as genuinely as possible, and good good things will come to you.

I know 2 people in this world has taught me that. And I'm forever grateful for these beautiful people. They can change the world with their magical approach with people. God bless them always. =)

I'm soooo happy today and I just want to stay like this forever.

Doctors Rule!

Meet the greatest all-lady team in the history of the Amazing Race. Doctors' Kat Chang and Nat Strand of the show's 17th season.

As a pair of anesthesiologists, the first response would be, "Ah they're obviously brainy and fit."... but the show has proven it five times over, especially when exposed of their greatest fears and weaknesses.
Nat has an immense fear of heights and battling type 1 Diabetes and her teammate Kat sacrificed her two-decade vegetarianism just to get ahead of the other teams. As a team they're extremely calm and collected with great survival instincts... I'm sure 7 years of medical practice have taught them all of that. Haha. They never, ever, crack under pressure! I've never seen such response to stress with such positivity and calmness compared to any other players who have come and gone in the Amazing Race. But those would definitely be their best qualities.



Nat and Kat are now one of the Final 4 teams competing for 1 million USD. It'll be the show's very first all-female team to win the race! Watch out!

Skins Novel

I'm probably gonna say that I am the biiiiggest fan of this TV show in our country. I've seen all four series, kept myself updated almost daily with news, bought magazine covers and have completed the soundtrack and episode tracks. I am the ultimate Skins fan. Hehe.

So I've recently got myself a copy of the novel. The fifth series won't be released for another 2 months so I needed the right fix. I'm such a junkie when it comes to this stuff.

It's what I would call "pocket book profanity", this 300 page novel. It's filled with the usual naughtiness that is Skins. No, actually it's over-the-top profanity. But I have been expecting it. This sort of behavior coming from the characters are very relevant to the characters portrayed in the series. Obviously there are "trimmings", meaning that the bad behavior is toned down for television because it will just turn out bland and simply "too dirty" for viewers.

This show is cheeky and immature, no doubt about that. But I can list down about a million things why it must get the right recognition. This won a BAFTA in the U.K. for F's sake. They give freedom for young writers and real people to all collaborate.

Ok so fuck it. I won't elaborate anymore on how brilliant this show is. I just know this isn't anything like I've seen on any local or foreign TV network and it'll make its mark, if not already, today or soon enough.
