Vintage Cigars

Have you hears of vintage cigars? Well, if you are not familiar with, then let me introduce you to Rocky Patel .It is a very popular brand of vintage cigar known throughout the world. Well I am not a smoker, but I came across this when my dad bought some as a gift for his boss. Since then , I also became a client because I give it to my boss on special occasions because he loves collecting vintage cigars. Just like about anything, they also go on sale so that is what I always await. If you are looking for perfect gifts for someone who loves cigars, then try it out. For sure they will really appreciate your gift.

Quick trim

Ever since I arrived here in Manila, I realized that I am slowly gaining weight. Well I noticed too that some of pants wont fit me perfectly now. So these are the signs. I can't blame anyone but myself because i always give in to temptation. Its so easy to have snacks delivered in our doorstep, or sometimes i will have a quick trip to the mall to get some junk food, and dinner is always a feast here. Now I think i need to lose weight already. Have you heard of the quick trim fast cleanse ? I heard it from a friend because this is her regimen now. She told me that it is very effective on her so she is recommending it to me too. I will be giving it a try by next week and lets see if it will do wonders on me.

Kung Hei fat Choi


Sorry for the late greeting. I had some series of nights suffering from headaches so I wasn't able to blog lately. Anyway, last Friday, I went to Chinatown with my friend to buy some lucky cahrms and amulets in time for the Chinese New Year. It has already been a tradition for me to welcome the year with those lucky charms as I believe that they reallyy give me good luck. I dont see any harm in trying that:) Well, after a little shopping, we had a yummy dinner in one authentic Chinese restaurant in the area. I felt so full after that we decided to have some coffee to cap the night off.

Face creams

My skin is acting up again! It must be the weather here in Manila because it is so humid. I have plans of going to a dermatologist already because it keeps coming back. I hope they will give me some really good, effective and best face creams . I have a lot of parties to attend to next month, I am also set to go back to Disneyland so I want to be at my best at the pictures. I really dont know what's happening to my skin. I want my old skin back , clear and pimple free. Having the best dermatologist, products and creams will surely be the best thing to do now.

Seeing her again

I was too excited to meet up my friend today at the mall. Ever since I arrived at Manila , I only saw her once and that was before the holidays.We need a lot of catching up to do . She stopped working already because she finally got pregnant after 3 years of waiting. I told her to drink her prenatal vitamin everyday to ensure that her baby will do well. I am thinking of what to give her when we see each other, maybe I will just let her choose what she like later at the mall as long as it will fit my budget. I totally love being with my friends. I miss them so much and I want to spend more time with them now that I am here.

The week that was

It was a productive one.

I had a great trip at Hongkong for 3 days , and went to Disneyland. I did a little shopping for my family and some friends. I got myself this nice Longchamp Le Pliage bag on sale at the airport..its lovely!



As for my niece and nephew, I got them Mickey and Minnie Mouse stuff . It was indeed a great trip. Mid week, I applied for life insurance at Wholesale Insurance . I finally got a quote from them 2 weeks ago, and since I was busy last week, it was only now that I applied. I am glad that I made a nice investment this time. For the coming week, I am a bit relaxed, only a few errands to do before Friday. Have a great week everyone!

Hello Baby!

I feel so great that my high school friend is infanticipating. She got married two years ago, and the start of this year is really lucky for them. We had lunch the other day and that's when she told me the great news. We bought her prenatal vitamins at the drugstore then went to some window shopping. A lot of stores were on sale now, so she managed to get some loose tops in time for her baby bump. Since she is working, she needs a few more clothes and nice maternity pants too. As for me, I got only a tank top , and a nice scarf for my trip. I heard it is cold in my destination so I looked for boots too. I guess, its really not for me , so i went home without a pair of boots. But its okay, I had the best news that day and I enjoyed it with my friend too.

My new companion


This Coach Duff Bag , which is a roomy messenger bag is my companion lately. It's my sister's and since she is usuing something else for her everyday bag, I borrowed this when I was out of the house. I love that the size is perfect. it holds my wallet, coin purse, make up kit, cologne, tissue and some more little stuff , then it even holds my planner. If only this can hold my laptop so I can read about quick trim fast cleanse reviews , then this is my bag forever, hahaha! But still, this one is perfect to carry around when you carry kids, go on commute, carry a lot of shopping bags and the likes. Its the perfect messenger bag for me. I am definitely carrying this to Hongkong!

Grow some more

Thank God its Friday ! This week has been pretty good for me as I accomplished a lot of things already. I booked myself for a Hongkong flight, then I was able to finish some travel papers. I also got my old passport which i think I would still be needing for reference. Now, I am listing down the things that I am getting at HK. Fo myself, I want to get some really nice and fab clothes, then my sister wants a new bag, and mind you, she is very specific with what she likes Hahaha. On my list too is a hair loss treatment product that my cousin needs. For my nephew and nieces, anything from the Disneyland will surely delight them. I am bringing a bigger luggage so I have enough room for my shopping.

Is this eczema?

Last october, when I arrived here in Manila, i was sad to see my nephew with allergies at his face. It was really red and his eyes were swollen. Then on some parts of his body, there was extreme dryness. So my sister went to the emergency room of the hospital to have him checked. He was given a few meds to take to make the swelling subside. They were thinking at first that it might be a case of eczema . The next day, they went to see a pediatric dermatologist. He was given some more meds then later on scheduled for a skin test.

A few weeks after, his skin test results stated that he is allergic to fish of any kind. Yes, he is not eating fish for now and we are hoping that soon he will outgrow this allergy so he can eat fist again.

Relaxing week

Last weekend, i had a fun and relaxing week. I went to the mall and met some of my friends to plan our travel this month. Then i joined my sister and her family in an overnight stay at a hotel. Our room was big than the usual once so my niece and my nephew had a great time playing. I , on the other han watched my favorite tv shows then event went onlie for a few minutes because I need to follow up my friend about this cure for hemorrhoid that she was talking about. A relative of mine asked me for some recommendations , so i asked a friend witht he same hemorrhoid problem. OKay so much for that.. to end the night, I had a very relaxing massage at the hotel's spa. I wish to spend more times like this.

Coach Maggie Op Art


I was looking for the best wrinkle cream online for my mom , when suddenly I received an email from Coach. They just released a new addition in their collection, and isn't it adorable? I love black and white prints, and this one really caught my attention when i saw this at the website. But I am certainly not buying one for now because I am on a budget. Maybe i would just wait for it to go on sale, or even hit the outlet. This will remain in my wish list indefinitely.
Now, I need to focus on this wrinkle cream. Mom is asking me to order one and have it shipped to our place really soon. Any suggestions? I am looking at Clinique and Estee Lauder as I am seeing good reviews of the products.

Modern sofas

Last September, our place was badly hit by a storm and some of our furnitures were disposed after because it was badly damaged. The water was almost knee deep and it was so hard to transfer out staff since it was just my sister and the helper with two kids. Now, its time to change a new sofa for us so I am looking for reasonably priced modern sofas for the living room. I only have a working budget and hopefully I wont go beyond that. I know that there's a lot of sale now in stores so i better check it out . Or i can also try online right? Lets see if they will deliver for free.

Happy 2010 !

Its a new decade for all of us! Happy New year everyone!

I was at my busiest during the Holidays. As you all know, it was my first time to celebrate it again with my sisters and good friends. I truly had a blast that I have tons of pictures to upload really soon. I went to a little getaway too with my college friends, it was such a night of fun and laughter. We were just unlucky on our way back to manila because we got a flat tire in the middle of the highway. We thought that help would take some time, but no, roadside assistance was there in less than an hour! Next time, we promise to have our car checked before hitting the road . Thats all for now friends. Happy new year again!
