Photo-full Monday!

I was rushing to the Ayala MRT station on my way home today when something on my left caught my eye. I was already really tired that it took me by surprise that something would be interesting enough for me to stop. At that time, my right arm was throbbing a little from the blood exam for the APE and I was getting a little heady because of all the walking under the smoldering heat the entire day (the nurse even asked me whether I was getting a little dizzy because my blood pressure was too low, oops). In short, I want nothing more than to take a shower and dive head-first on my bed.

But lo and behold, after a full day... somewhere between my strides in Glorietta, I just had to slow down. It was the combination of colors in a photograph that made me stop and look closely. And beside it was another full-colored photo, and in front of it were a few more... I stepped back and realized: Eh kaya naman pla! It was because the whole stretch was a photo exhibit, specifically the Canon-Pixma PhotoWorld Asia 2013.  Haha! Toinks!

But I just found myself smiling at the photos, and I hope these cheer you up too.

Here, I actually took photos of the photos (is that ironic?) using my phone. :)



















They're gorgeous, aren't they?? My personal favorite is the second photo, it's entitled "Happy Pinoy" and just looking at it can make anyone smile! Those smiles are so genuine, so childish, it just goes straight to your heart!

I think in the midst of all the hustle and Monday busy-ness, sometimes it is just sad that we cannot see beauty even if it's already staring at us in the face. Nung una wala masyadong pumapansin sa exhibit, but it was also then when more people started to look that more took notice of the exhibit, and they took time to stop and admire.

The exhibit will be there until tomorrow, there are more from where these came from! Be sure to catch them at the Glorietta Activity Center :)

Have a great Monday! <3

So You Had a Bad Day

Last Friday, I caught myself getting irritated by the second as I get one bad update after the next at work - confirming either low performance for the month or delay in our campaign activities. I just wanted nothing more but to call it a day and go home...  But since that wasn't an option, I just watched a movie (yup on my own :P) and stuffed my mouth with Taters potato chips (cheese flavor!) and Jamaican pattie (cheesy beef!) later that afternoon. Yup, that made me feel a little better after! We all go through this kind of day, and so soon after ringing in the new year with our hopes and goals too!  Tsktsk! So as I dragged myself to take on the hours that day, I knew that I had to snap out of it and be wary, lest I find myself stuck in the limbo of the daily activities.

Japan: Lit Gardens & Shrines in Kyoto + Japan Travel Tips

On our 3rd day, we went to Kyoto! We bought a one-day Keihan railway pass since Kyoto is about an hour away from Osaka. There are different ways to get to Kyoto but the cheapest and fastest is by train. Taxis are very expensive in Japan! Buses and trains are just about the same price so you can plot your way to this famous spot either way. Fushimi Inari Shrine

Getting Beach-Ready with Wink!

Beach! That is what my mind seems to be saying these days, and on Friday we will be flying to a much-loved beach in Visayas (more about that soon). Finally! The sun and the seas! :D But before we don our swimwear and flip-flops, my friend and I made sure to get our skin beach-ready first. So just last Saturday, we went to Wink Laser & Wax Studio to get our waxing fix. We both have had experience in waxing, shaving and plucking so I think it was a great way to try what Wink has to offer differently in the market. Because we already have something to compare it with, we hope to bring something that will break it down into specifics, not just with the service but with the products and the  ambiance  as well. Hygiene is number 1 One thing worth remembering about Wink is its priority on cleanliness. Holly Chang, the young entrepreneur behind this budding business, is a self-proclaimed OC.
