Can you believe it, out from 139 entries and I was the lucky one who could take home that giveaway? Yipeee... I'm so happy.

Minute Maid Pulpy

I just drank a bottle of Minute Maid Pulpy. They say it’s got ‘no preservatives added’. Aw, c’mon…It’s bottled juice. Is that even possible? So I thought maybe... I should give it a try and taste it for myself. So I bought one

I didn’t believe it the first time I heard it’s got no preservatives added. So I read the ingredients (even the fine print) and everything checked out! It really has NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED! That means it doesn’t have ingredients that may turn out to be allergens, or worse...carcinogens! Whew! Now that’s healthy goodness that tastes so good, I... was really amaze. I found out that no preservatives were added. I find it so refreshing, I can really taste the pulpy. Because of that, I consumed 2 bottles in one sitting

So okay, it’s got no preservatives added. That’s really good, right? Not just because it doesn’t have those icky, harmful ingredients, but it also means... it's very healthy and safe to drink. It's recommended to everyone since it has no preservatives added plus it is rich in vitamins and minerals.

So far anyone who still has a hard time believing that Minute Maid has got no preservatives added - meaning it's THAT natural, it's almost like it's plucked straight from the tree, it's just as Mother Nature wanted your orange juice to be, it's got nothing but the good stuff yes, none of those potentially toxic stuff that can harm your brain, kidneys, heart; cause tumors aargh- the list of preservatives' bad effects just go on!!! Anyway, just to prove a point on just how good Minute Maid Pulpy is 'cause it's got NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED, I'm gonna recommend this to my family and friends. I will blog about this so that they will also try this one out and see for themselves. I will include this in my grocery list every week. I will spread this word to everyone.

Feels good to know about the real pulpy deal, right? C’mon show me a smile on the comment box, and you might win yourself a Really Pulpy Deal! (That’s a chance to win a Minute Maid gift pack simply by commenting. Sweet! C'mon you just might be picked as the lucky 'commentor'!)

Love,

My grown up Christmas list

6 more days to go and MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!!! I just recently made my wish list, I guess it's never too late to make one so this is my last minute wish list. I did a lot of thinking recently if I could have them all but hey, it's a wish list, after all, I may not have all of them in an instant but I can still wait 'till next year. Or if someone so generous and kind to give this to me as a present. Well, thank you so much!! Lol.. Hooohooo. Santa, can you hear me? Anyways, I'm not yet done with Christmas shopping, though I started yesterday but I'm not yet done. Maybe soon. How about you guys? Are you done with Christmas shopping? Avoid holiday rush and enjoy every bit of your time. Happy Holidays everyone!!!

Christmas party with my team

Speaking of Christmas, I believe it is everyone's favorite time of the year. It means never ending parties, feasts, get together, Noche Buena, and of course giving of gifts. Every year, each one of us has a party to attend to, and despite of me being away from my family, it doesn't stop me from receiving gifts. As a routine, our team decided to throw a party and celebrate on the 1st week of December. We planned to have another karaoke session at Eastwood, but sad to say, something unexpected happened that we had to change our plans to the last minute. Since everyone has prepared their gifts already, so we just decided to eat out. We went to Gerry's Grill to celebrate. It's been quite a while since I was with my team and honestly, I did miss them. I was late and by the time I got there, we then exchanged our gifts. Funny but true, the person who sent me the gift last year was Adrian and even up to now he is still the person who picked my name. My wishlist includes a satchel bag or a dress but because he knew satchel bags are very expensive so he bought me a gray cardigan. It was my first and I admit I love it. I will surely post a pic soon of me wearing it. Anyways, here's the evidence of our team's eat out parteeeey!

After the party I went straight to the office, with my blazer on it since sleeveless is not allowed

XOXO!

Accessories overload

It's been like weeks that I was missing in action. I admit, I've been terribly busy with work and all. Christmas is just around the corner and honestly I'm not yet done making my Christmas wish list. Anyways, I'm still trying to save my money and avoid holiday rush, but sad to say, when I heard that there was a bazaar near our office building, I went there without hesitation and voila! I bought a lot of stuff. I was amaze because they are so cheap and very affordable. Chic tops and fashionable dresses comes in a very low prices. This is what I love about holidays! And so without further ado, these are the lovely items that I recently bought.

Lovely Rings

Earrings
I bought them because they are so cute..
And I love their packaging/little pouches

I also bought a new dress and a top. I'll post a pic of me wearing it soon.. :) How about you guys? Are you done with your Christmas shopping? As for me, I'm about to start now! Yipee! HAPPY HOLIDAYS everyone!!! Woooohoooo!! Enjoy!!!

Ms. Style Council

There's nothing special about this post. I just wanted to share something that made me really really happy. Here it goes, ever since, I've always love Chictopia and even though I barely update my chicblog that doesn't mean I'm no longer active. I have less outfit posts because first, Mingming doesn't want or is way too shy to take photos of me and my outfit, second, I left my tripod in Cebu so there's no way I can take pictures of myself when I'm alone, third, I tried any other ways so that I can take a shot of myself but sad to say, it just won't work and lastly, I have limited clothes and shoes and accessories with me because all my stuff is at Cebu boo hooo!

And this past few days, I logged in to Chictopia and received a welcome note that I'm already part of the style council. OMG! I totally can't believe it! Seriously, Style Council? Wow, I am so amaze and I super duper thank the staff and VIP's of Chictopia for choosing me as part of their Style Council. I'll do my very best to update my Chicblog from time to time. I am overwhelmed and speechless even at this very moment. And by the way, look at my Chic points, I'm at 248 already. Yipeee...

Anyways, here's a snapshot of my profile pic in Chictopia

Holiday Blue Cruise

Yesterday, I posted about the items that I recently bought during the sale, and last Saturday, our company organized a social event for all their employees. They do it annually and it's been my first time to attend such gathering. The theme is all about Holiday Blue Cruise. I wasn't able to prepare my outfit on what to wear because my schedule is very hectic the past few days. Luckily, I remember the top that I recently bought, since it's quite related to the theme because of the color blue and it is somehow more like a sailor or navy outfit, so I decided to wear them to the last minute of ransacking my closet. And oh I forgot, I don't have a closet, but my luggage, (because it is where all my clothes were piled up). Anyway, I have no time to prepare and plan my outfit so I was totally in a rush to try these one out. Here's my outfit shot and sorry but this is one heck of a heavy photo posts.

See how unprepared I am? No make up and no accessories. Boo hoo!

I totally love this pic but then it's not that clear. :(

Lastly, outfit shot

The Markdown Sale

Dear blog and bloggers, I'm really sorry for the hiatus. I've been terribly busy with my schedule preparing for the upcoming training and new trainees to train. As a trainer, I need to prepare myself on the topics that I will be discussed in 3 weeks time. Anyways, I'm still in the graveyard shift and I guess I'll forever be in that shift. My boss maybe wants to see me everyday, 9.5 hours a day, 5 times a week. And actually, I had less time to shop because I spent all my time sleeping. I lack of sleep these past few days, so I have to catch up for that. But during my day's off, of course, why would I spoil myself, I went shopping and shopping again. I'm actually in a tight budget but seriously, after all the hard work, I need to pamper and reward myself. Went to Landmark during their sale and boy I was so much amaze, the stuff there are very cheap. If only I could spend my entire payout I would surely do that, but then I have to limit myself from splurging because of my priorities. Thank GOD I no longer have credit cards because if I have one, I tell you I can't control myself from buying.

And here are the stuff that I bought during their 50% Sale! Ain't that tempting?
