My Dreaming Wedding

I happen to visit the day 2 of Kasalan sa Kagay-an 2010 yesterday. I was amaze at the wedding services and products display. Actually medyo na lola ako sa presyo. Ang laki pala ng gastos ng dream wedding ko! :D

I have been wishing for a fairytale church wedding since I was child. Me wearing a beautiful gown and walking down the aisle of Saint Agustin Cathedral. Of course I picked Saint Agustin Cathedral because the aisle is long and it would really showcase my gown na on that day lang masusuot. I am also fascinated with garden wedding but I believe of the sanctity of wedding vows and that being wed in God's house would gave our marriage a strong bond and guidance from God so I go for church wedding. Anyways, a garden wedding would still be possible if we renew wedding vows. ;)

And my dream reception is a garden setting with lots of butterflies flying and flowers around. And for the wedding cake a simple one will do. Also the wedding coverage will not be forgotten because it will capture special moments on that one special day. Oh diba bongga? But looking at the booths at Kasalan sa Kagay-an 2010 my dream wedding will really leave my soon-to-be-husband pockets butas! heheheh

Wedding only happen in your life once so no matter how it is celebrated may it be grand or just a simple family gathering always remember to marry for love. What is important is that the value of marriage that it is binded by love and guided by God.

Double Birthday Celebration

Every year this day would never pass without a celebration, may it be a big party or just a family get together. This is because 2 of the most wonderful person in the family celebrated another year of existence; Mama Susan and Manang Susie. They are special to me since I grow up with them along with 2 sister (Manang Nike and Maechell) and my uncle Papa Ading. They treated me (and my mom) as a member of the family; as a daughter and as a sibling. So for both of them heres my birthday message to Mama Susan and Manang Susie...

In addition to that this day was also the death anniversary of Mama Susan's mother.

Justine’s 5th Birthday!

Justine turned 5 last August 27, 2010. It was not a grand celebration but it ended a very grand one for my little Justine. I prepared a simple food which is good for the family only and bought a cake from Cahatian Cake & Balloon Accessories. I also prepared goodies that Justine gave to his playmates. There was also personalize balloons with Justine name. What came a surprise is that my boss bought a gift for my little Justine, he ask our Senior VA to buy a Spiderman Cake from Cecils Bakeshoppe. I was really surprise since I did not expect the generosity of my boss.

Pantene Age Defying Shampoo

Pantene Age Defying is my shampoo now and I could say if you want to have a shiny hair use this shampoo. Im not kiddin, i'm talking from experience. ;) Every afternoon I usually tie my hair because its hot hair in our house I got no problem with it until I used Pantene age defying shampoo. This is because after awhile the tie on my hair just slide down and I have to fix it again. I am thinking if its good or not now since I can no longer tie my hair... :D Even an aunt love it too since she no longer spend extra money for a conditioner now that she is using Pantene age defying shampoo.

Love to hear about your shampoo too! Feel free to voice it below... Ill be waiting!

My New Laptop Bag

I've been planning of buying big and durable shoulder bag for my laptop. I know backpacks are good for laptops but theres a reason why I want shoulder bags, anyway im going to use it on certain occasions/days. And the reason is shoulder bags matches with kikay dresses. I love wearing sexy dresses almost every time I go out but now I often wear shorts, pants or something casual get-up when I'm bringing my backpack. I was thinking that with my laptop on a shoulder bag I could wear my sexy/kikay dress match with heels. Oh diba! ;)

Unfortunately, yesterday my couz and I went shopping for a bag and guess what I bought? A backpack! :D Yeah! But this time this backpack is more durable than my old one and its black. My laptop is safer because it has thick protection, it's waterproof, it has many compartments for chargers, phones and mouse and it also has its own rain cover even if its already waterprooof.

When I tried it on my back it feel so lite. Both Prexie and Machinegan (my 2 lappy's) can fit inside too. Originally its price is Php 2,200 but they are having a sale so I bought it at the price of Php 1, 759. Its still a wise investment since I love to go anywhere and travel with my laptop. Para kahit saan man ako mapadpad work is with me! ;)

The question now is... Is it okay wearing this backpack with a sexy dress and heels? What do you think?

Bonding With Couz And Niece

Earlier this afternoon my cousin called me up to go out for lunch. I was hesitant at first since I still have loads of work to finish but since this rarely happens and i'm not yet in the mood to work I decided to go out with her. We had lunch at Pancake House. My cousin ordered for a Clubhouse Sandwich with Avocado shake and for me I had a Mango Crepes with four season juice.

After lunch we went strolling at Limketkai Mall. Esa, my cousins daughter enjoyed the fun rides while my cousin went to buy a mouse and a laptop jacket like mine but unfortunately no size fitted her Dell lappy.

Next stop we went shopping for a lappy bag at Robinsons. I was browsing shoulder bags which is big and durable for my laptop while my couz went looking for backpacks. However, after looking around we both ended buying a very durable backpacks worth Php 1, 759 (originally Php 2 200).

It's already dark outside but couz still eager to buy accessories for her lappy. We found ourself at Handyman were couz bought a bed table for laptop. And finally it's dinner time! We dine at Mooon Cafe were couz ordered for Porkchop and for me Mooon Steak.

Creating Videos

Just this week my boss send me video creation information which I am going to read on and listen because its going to be my task. My boss said that I will just give it a try creating one and if I enjoyed it then I'll be making more videos. I was kind of hesitant at first since I don't have much knowledge in video effects. I have only created videos through Powerpoint slideshow or any photo sharing sites where in you just click layout/design choices and boom your video is created. However, as my boss said theres no harm in learning while I get paid so okay go... :D Here are the videos I have created so far with slight effects.

Created in Animoto.com:

Tinnitus Cure Guide

Created with Movie Maker:

I am currently researching for more enhancement on video effects if you do any ideas please dont hesitate to send me some comments. Thank you!

My Day Ended Awesome!

When I arrived at Mbox Internet Cafe this afternoon I got a sudden change of mood and since I cant concentrate on work with such mood so I decide to go out and cool down myself. I am on a jeepney going Limketkai Mall when I realized why not go to SM City since I just read on plurk that there will be a Cosplay Tour Prelimenary and there is surely ice cream there (the main reason why I want to go to Limketkai Mall). While riding on a taxi off to SM City I was given myself a time to breath and cool down myself. I just don't know why but there are really times like this when I just felt sudden sadness and emptiness within me.
So when I arrived at SM City CDO I felt a little better already. The mall was full of people because its the 2nd day of there 3 day sale.

I just stroll around until I arrived at the second floor. The Event Center was crowded because of the Cosplay Tour Prelimenary.

I didn't miss the chance to take a photo of my fave anime Kakashi!

After taking pictures I went to worlds of fun and played basketball shooting. I really enjoyed this activity and will do this more often from now on...

Sweaty and happy me after playing...

Later at 7 PM along with friends Jane, Kuya Acckky, Ate Sharon and Kuya John we went to our friend Irene's newly opened business Katunggan Food Park in Opol.

Goodbye Smartbro! Hello PLDT MyDSL!

Last Monday I freak out when my internet connection is very slow or should I say close to no connection at all. Yes, I can open page for a couple of minutes but then I doesn't upload even a word document report. Ive been experiencing this slow internet connection for almost 3 months and I have reported the problem to Smartbro but no answer. So since my Smartbro plug-it plan is only locked-in for 6 months and thats going to be on September I immediately applied for a wired connection through PLDT MyDSL. I choose the Php 1,300 per month package which already included unlimited DSL, landline and watchpad also installation and modem are free.

So I applied last Tuesday. They actually told me installation will be after 5 days but it only took 2 days and I am already using PLDT MyDSL now. I really thought it will took me awhile to get internet connection since I have friends whom took weeks and months before internet connection was installed with PLDT also.
