Something Fishy

Sun, 19 Aug 2012 19:14:51 +0800

After days of searching online for a breakfast buffet place, Robin and I decided to go for Something Fishy. Being late sleepers that we are, it was a struggle to get up early on a Saturday morning with the buffet closing at 10 am.

My first plate! Scrambled eggs (the one I was looking forward to), hotdogs, siomai, fried rice, bangus, pork, beef tapa (which is really gyudon), pork, shanghai rolls, and tocino. The angle makes it look less than really was :P

Robin enjoying his first plate :)

Me with my second plate! See how much I love scrambled eggs? I didn’t get to take a picture of my third plate anymore :(

Super sleepy with aching stomachs. Haha! We ate too much too fast so we went for a walk in Eastwood Mall. I think we were the only ones who weren’t working there. It was so early, the elevators weren’t even turned on yet :P

Making a fool of myself while no one was around. These were all Robin’s ideas :P

Merry go around we wanted to ride but couldn’t. Haha!

Filled our bellies up for only 179php each! The buffet price is only 169php on weekdays though. Definitely worth going back next time :)

Something Fishy is located in Eastwood City Walk, beside Sambo Kojin :)

Do you know other good breakfast buffet places?

Lemonade

Tue, 22 May 2012 19:44:49 +0800

Like I mentioned in a previous post, I rarely put on a lot of make up. So when I got the chance to attend a wedding reception last Sunday, I had to take a photo! Especially since I was able to apply falsies successfully. The overall look (lime + pink) reminds me of lemonade, hence the title. :)

Fun Day

Sat, 19 May 2012 23:16:07 +0800

Robin surprised me with what we would call a “fun day” before we started working. We recognize that working life would mean seeing each other less especially since we were always together in college, so we tried to maximize our vacation with some fun activities!

First stop was in Nuvali (Sta. Rosa), where we had lunch in Buffalo’s Wings n’ Things combined with Chubby’s Rib Shack.

Took photos while waiting :D

One of Robin’s proud shots :)

Quotable quotes

We had to order a basket of ribs for a rib-lover like me!

We also ordered three 1/2 pound (4 pcs) baskets of wings with fries in different flavors: The Rookie, Honey BBQ, and Garlic Parmesan. I only managed to take a photo of the Honey BBQ one because we were hungry already. Garlic Parmesan is definitely a must-try!

View of the swimming pool in Tagaytay Highlands. There are no people because the pool is closed for maintenance, haha! :)

Robin calls this his artistic shot :)

Cutie!

Playing mini golf miserably. I am not built for this sport. (Or any other sport)

Hole in one photo! Yeeey! Look how happy he is! :)

Back to Nuvali after Dinner at Leslie’s. We went to have dessert at FIC’s Summer Cafe.

Couldn’t decide between Serenitea and Summer Cafe so we had both! :) Their Banoffee Sundae is sooo yummy!

How was your summer break?

Fashion 21 Warm Salmon

Sat, 12 May 2012 18:03:00 +0800

A lot of my friends know that I’m a sucker when it comes to cheap finds. I practically sales talk them into buying products I think are great in quality and yet light on the pocket. Most of these include make up products, because I take my time going through blog reviews, Youtube videos, and department stores looking for new things to rave about. I guess one of the reasons I’m into such finds is because I rarely wear a lot of make up anyway. I’m good with just concealer on a daily basis, and sometimes eyeliner for some kick.

Recently I’ve decided to start using more products, one of them being Fashion 21’s Aqualicious lipstick in Warm Salmon. It’s a nice coral shade which complements a lot of skin tones because of the versatility of its use. For example, if layered on thick, it produces a rich medium coral shade.

For days where you just want some color to brighten up your face, you can apply the product lightly across your lips. (Photo above) This also works well for having photographs taken in casual settings.

And if you want a pastel coral shade, you can just layer Warm Salmon on top of a nude lipstick, like in Patty’s photo above! The product is pigmented, goes on smoothly, and doesn’t dry up the lips. The best part is that the lipstick only costs 155php! It’s a small price to pay for a product you can use to achieve different kinds of looks. I believe you can find Fashion21 in most (if not all) department stores here in the Philippines.

Random Things In My Room

Tue, 01 May 2012 17:55:00 +0800

Just toying around with the settings of my camera. I wanted to achieve the vintage photo look without the use of Photoshop. It’s funny how I used to abhor my D5000 more than a year ago. I guess not everything is about the camera model, but how you use it :)

A pink whiteboard piggy/bear bank given by my cousin.

My Lumix LX5. This camera takes incredible video footage, but is a pain to convert.

Old issue of ViVi magazine sitting on my bed.

Meet Berry, a princess type Shih tzu who has grown beyond proportion due to her enormous and insatiable appetite. People always think she’s pregnant because of her huge belly, and her curly hair makes her look scruffy all the time.

Two products that have been saving my skin this summer! My good friend practically sales talked me into buying the The Body Shop’s Vitamin C Skin Boost because I was hesitant with the price. I use it under my moisturizer or on its own in the morning. At night, I use Krave’s Panacea Oil to moisturize my acne prone skin before sleeping. At first I thought it was a crazy idea to apply oil on my already oily skin, but I have to say that this product is definitely helping my skin improve. :)

Asian Vogue booties I purchased some time ago :) I already have 3 pairs of shoes from them and I love their huge selection and affordable prices.

Bracelets I stacked on an Arizona Green Tea bottle. I love the cherry blossom design so much that I just couldn’t throw away the bottle.

Hello Kitty phone I don’t use anymore.

High waist ombre shorts I’m selling for only 650php :) It fits a 25-26 waistline, has a thick and sturdy denim material, and has cool distressed back pockets! ~~Just email me if you’re interested~~ :) Sold!

Display on top of my dvd player. Clockwise: Lego digital camera, Spongebob toy I bought back in 2004, clock camera from my mom, pebble from my sister, Hello Kitty ring I wear all the time, random bobby pins, and a camel figurine pasalubong from Robin.

Another product I’ve been loving! It’s actually my first time to try mud masques, and Krave’s Detox and White has kept me addicted. I love the smell and minty feeling :D I’m ordering this product again soon.

My barkada of ponies! My Little Pony has been my favorite childhood game, and coincidentally they’re also famous for their hair. This bunch actually came from 2 toy sets where you can mix and match their hairstyles and clothes. I’ve been looking for a My Little Pony Stuffed toy since forever, so please tell me if you know where to find one!

The best shoots are the ones done with friends.

I’m trying to spend as much time with friends as possible before I start working. Yesterday, Eunica and I finally had the chance to spend an entire day catching up and of course, shooting. I’ll miss seeing her in school and car pooling with her. I still can’t believe my life as a student is over!

Eunica and I had a few hours to bond during the Christmas break, and it’s no surprise that the time was spent with me doing her hair and make up! I took a couple of photos before she left for a dinner party just so the look wouldn’t go to waste. :) Don’t you love the citrus shades along with the full waves? I especially love the lip color!
