FlipTop + shopping

Yesterday, I blogged about my latest online buys, and the bad news here is that I still have to wait for tomorrow for me to be able to pick up the items. I am super duper excited to take a picture of myself wearing those items.

Moving on, yesterday, I did mention that SM Cubao had their 50% Off Sale, since yesterday was Mingming's rest day, without further hesitation and just as he promised, we went to SM Cubao; we all know for a fact that men are not really into shopping so he suggested that he'll just wait for me at French Baker while he will just make use of the high speed internet wifi. I was really really happy, complete freedom, I can buy anything I want without worries as to what he will say. I did left him there and went on shopping for about 3 hours, yes 3 hours of shopping, that includes taking my rounds from clothes, to bags, accessories to shoes and not to mention the long wait for the fitting room and all. Thank goodness they have plenty of cashiers that saves time to wait for the que.

Anyways, when I came back to French Baker, Mingming introduced me to this FlipTop which is considered as Rap Battle League. As far as I've remembered, I've had an idea about FlipTop through Saab Magalona in one her inspired blogs. And since out of curiosity, Mingming made me listened and watch via Youtube. I was super amaze by the contestants and how they could easily throw some insulting yet funny words through rap. Some may hit below the belt, some words may break their bones but then they continued to battle despite all the funny insults and discrimination. This made me realize how smart and talented a Filipino is, amazing how they can easily make up and throw back the insults being thrown by them. The words they have usually rhymes in the end but funny how they could make fun of each other. You need to have a strong heart and mind because they will criticize down to every bit of you, they will look any faults and might actually throw it against you. So in this fight, one should never give up, one should never cry and one should always have something to throw back 'coz if not, then you're no good, you're a big LOSER.

Hugs and kisses everyone!

PS: I wonder if there are any females who usually battles Fliptop. Who knows I might be the first one. LOL..

Online Buys

Retention payout came out already! They are super duper excited and I on the other hand, is not really that excited. Though, it's a quite a huge amount but since my stats are wrecked, got a so so pay, not too exciting for me. Anyways, but still I'm thankful to have such payout. I'm looking forward in buying new stuff, like shoes, clothes, bags and accessories at the same time, I was thinking whether to deposit my savings or not. I still don' t know what to do with it.

Since I had an extra cash from the payout, I went shopping online. My primary purpose is to canvass and not to buy anything since I still have to pay for the shipping fee. But since I was really tempted to buy new clothes, here is my online buys for this week. Take note, for this week only, because SM Cubao is having a sale yesterday 'till October 3, so I told Mingming that we should drop by and pay a visit. Shopping is very tempting and I just can't help it.

Here's my online buys for this week:

For the love of Shoes

Retention payout is fast approaching, and my pay is enough for me to pay the bills and have a little extra cash for my wants. I made a list on what to with my retention payout, and as I made my list, I was thinking whether to buy a shoes or a flats or perhaps a new sandal. But because for me, I feel so comfortable just by wearing flat sandals or simply flat shoes and sneakers. Then, all of a sudden, I was thinking of VANS or Renegade Folk brand of shoes. While visiting themall in StyleBible, I saw this cute gray suede leather boat shoes, it caught my attention, and I love it. But then on the other hand, at the back of my mind, I always love to buy a new pair of Vans and when it comes to the colors, I had trouble deciding which is which. For now, these are the 3 colors that I have in my mind. I still have to weigh things out whether to buy or not to buy. Anyways, so far, these are my personal choice of shoes to buy and I just don't know if I will surely buy these shoes because I might changed my mind. let's just wait and see.

PS: What can you suggest? Vans or the Renegade Flats? And what color? Suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

The summary of Day 1 and Day 2

Okay, forget about day one and two. I was about to blog yesterday which is day one but last night I was so tired and sleepy so after checking my Facebook, I turned off my laptop and slept. I woke up late and by the time I woke up, I then checked my Facebook and created a new look in Looklet.com

I was way too busy with Facebook and Looklet till all my time was consumed. But it's not that worst. Around 3pm till 11pm I stayed in my parents room talking with my mom or if not in our kitchen and you'll catch me eating. I was really pigging out during my vacation stay here. For sure, by the time I'll be back in Manila, I know I'll gain a lot of weight, but I don't care. Besides, I need to gain a little weight 'coz I look so thin or I feel so thin or the other way around.

Anyways, today is supposed to be Day 2 but then I think this is the summary of Day one and Day two. Yesterday was my sister's birthday. We celebrated her birthday by preparing something. We didn't invite other people but the only guests that we have is my sister's boyfriend and my brother's girlfriend. Not to mention my boyfriend 'coz he is still in Manila. I was the only one who doesn't have a pair but I'm all good. Besides, if Mingming was here, I don't want him to come because he also needs to spend time with his family since he's only here for a 4 days vacation too.

And so, yesterday, my mom prepared seafood and grilled pork and fish and squid, we had chocolate cake, Buko salad and a lot more. I was super duper full and I ate a lot, and it felt like it was holiday. Aside from that, we took pictures, we had family pictures, group pictures and couples too that excludes me. We had a "Headband day" also which simply means, aside from the birthday, we had a family picture wherein we all are wearing a funny and childish headbands. All of us wore even my father. I was really happy and so blessed to have a family like them. I thank GOD a million gazillion times to have a family like them.

HAPPY and BLESSED. Those are the words that could describe me. I was really happy because I was able to come home and spent time with my family, second because thank GOD we are still united and it's good to know that we are all complete. I thank GOD for that. I would never ever trade these moments and time to be with them. Like what they always say, "There's no place like home" and I would definitely would agree with that.

I'm glad to be home. Glad I was able to unwind despite all the stress and the stressors at work. I thank my manager/teamlead for allowing me to be here and be with my family. I know, there's nothing you can do but allow me. LOL..

I guess I have to end up here. By the way, tomorrow, I was planning to meet my girlfriends. I miss them and one of the reasons why I'm here is to see them as well. I miss my girls a lot. Hopefully all of them will come. I would expect that. I'm so excited and I look forward to meet them. I just can't wait.

Till here! Au Revoir!! XOXO

Post Arrival

Finally!! Home sweet home!! I am so overwhelmed. After 5 months since the last time I visited here and a year since the last time I stayed here. I admit, I missed everything. I was so surprised when my mom granted my request, she bought me Shrimps served for dinner. It was like a year since I last ate those and I was really pigging out. Sorry but I just can't help.

Anyways, I was thinking I should be blogging everything that happened in my stay here. I mean for the longest time of being away from my family, every treasured moments should be captured. And starting tomorrow, I'll be taking pictures of myself and my family and our dogs too. This ain't Day One, 'coz this is just a post arrival blog. I was just here for like hours so let's take it into consideration. :)

Well, it's really getting late and I'm still wide awake. I miss spending out this late in my room, nothing important is going on but definitely you'll catch me surfing and blogging and some other stuff I normally do when I'm bored.

My mom and I had a little conversation, but then I thought it would end that easily, but I was really having the longest conversation with her. I was really sleepy and my eyes were like twitching but then I still managed to actively listen to whatever she says. I'm spending my maximum time here with my family. Anyways, thank GOD, I was still in my concentration in paying attention to her.

Our dog Butchow could no longer recognized me because he was way 3 months the last time I saw him and for sure, he's not familiar with me since I've been away from them. I didn't see him growing up. But so far, I was trying to reach out and now, we're like so so.. Quite okay but manageable. :)

I guess I have to end up here. I am so damn sleepy.. Till here guys. :)

PS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my elder sister.. May you have more birthdays to come and never ending blessings that GOD would pour on you.. :)
