Long weekend highlights!

Oh! The glee that a 3-day weekend brings! :)

Honestly though, I would've wanted to have a weekend getaway, but I wasn't able to plan on time :( So I am soooo looking forward to doing one of my favorite things in the next few months: travel!

So for this long weekend, I spent it balancing exercising, eating, sleeping and catching up on new movies and tv series.

In short, chillllaaaaax lang muna tayo. :P

Thursday: Smurfed!

How cute was this movie??! :P Loved it! Didn't catch the first but this one was such a great way to cap off the work week.

Saw this last Thursday night and with the characters' quirky personalities and the movie's good-natured plot, this movie is a must watch for both young and young at hearts:

Friday: Zumba!

Yaay to happy group classes like this! I guess I already found the class that I will to the gym for every week :) Zumba is such a great way to have fun while sweating like crazy.

While dancing to the rhythm of "Dancing Queen" and "Sexy and I Know It", Zumba takes a festive turn to the dance workout landscape.

It sometimes feel like your dancing with the flash mob :)

Saturday: Foodie experience at La Creperie!

Yesterday was such a foodie highlight day and I just wanted to share this new find with you:

It was our first time to dine here and there were so many foodie gems to go back to. Meeting and chatting with the co-owner, Christine, made the experience more personal. There is so much story behind every business endeavor and La Creperie has more of that to tell. Will let you in on that soon on my next post :)

Loved their new branch at New Manila, La Creperie Boheme, which is like stepping into a room and immediately being surrounded by the world's greatest minds and talents. With Pablo Neruda's quote on the wine stand, famous kiss photograph by Robert Doisneau on the wall and books by the likes of Murakami on the book corner... La Creperie is a find that uplifts both the body and the soul. :)

Speaking of uplifting the body and the soul, today is Sunday and will go to church service in a bit. :)

Hope everyone was recharged with the long weekend! Ciao for now!

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.
