I am freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Hello! Happy Independence Day!

Days will be a little quieter in the house until Saturday because my two sisters are out of town for Victory's Singles Getaway! Yaaaaay for them! And yaaay for me also because I will be hogging their room while they're gone! HA! :)

I would've loved to join the getaway though but I need to behave myself as far as spending my vacation leaves and moolah in the next two months, because I have two upcoming trips! Woot woot!


The first one is on next week-- to a local destination -- and the second one is to two neighboring Asian countries <3

Maybe sometimes we take it for granted but freedom is a sweet, sweet thing.. and not just in the obviously-big way -- like we are now a free country, and not anymore chained with the Spanish colonization (what-is-araling-panlipunan) -- but also in the bigger sense that we are free to make our own choices and we can weigh options and seek the best, God's best for us.

Honestly, I am facing a crossroad right now and as scurrry as it gets sometimes, I am very thankful that there are the proverbial forks in the road popping out from time to time... because then, there are options for me to weigh. If the road just goes one way, it can get boring and there would be very little room for growth...

So here we gooo, we all need prayers and courage because crossroads are there to stay, and with it comes both challenge and growth. :)

Happy freedom day, everyone!

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.
