travel alone

I am writing this now by a ledge in the terminal airport in manila. This terminal is too small. A lot of people are just standing because no more seats are available. And to think boarding time is 1.45hours from now. Some impolite people are putting their bags on the seats even. The terminal fee here is 550pesos. -ka wai lami dre...
Anyway, I am travelling alone, from cebu to san francisco, with 1 big suitcase bag, 1 big box, 1 backpack, and a purse. Stopover is here in manila. Travelling alone aint the happiest thing. It is lonely and you feel you are on AMAZING RACE ALOne.

My FOREVER21 First Purchases

The big Forever21 store in SM Cebu finally opens just last week. ^^,
After months of waiting and waiting, me and my friends finally get to purchase our first ever Forever21 buys.

But guess what.. as usual much on my luck, I ended up in the KIDS section of FOREVER21. hahaha
I just went with the XL size and that just suits right for me. ^^,
I find most of FOREVER21 GIRLS styles more fitting to what I would like to wear than their other styles. Most of their collections for ladies are for AUTUMN or WINTER designs - long sleeves, thick textiles.


I guess I have to wait til summer to get to their collection that suits more to the weather here in the Philippines.


Here are some of what I ended with on my first purchases

I have the black and white version of this one.

I also had the gray loose-fitting blouse with purple lace underneath. I cannot find any picture of it over the internet.

I also bought two slim belts, one in brown color and the other one in flowers.

They look something like these

I also bought this dress for baby macy

I got the maroon color one.

I guess baby macy and me will have to go shopping together looking for our clothes in the KIDS section of 

FOREVER21 . hahahha ^^,

Real Steel (2011)

Note: If you have not seen the movie yet. I suggest to not scroll down or read anything about the movie. It is more exciting to be surprised! And you will, awesomely!

I love the movie.

 It had a fun, thrilling, and feel-good aura all throughout. 

It was really surprising coz I (and my friend who I watched the movie with) didn't know really a single bit of the plot itself. 

All I ever saw was the movie poster when this came out and I quickly ditched it saying 'Well, another robot movie...' 

But then I read a post in FB from one of my friends saying it was a good movie. 

And since we were really bored with work and all, watching a movie would be a good time off. So we chose to watch this.

And it way better than I expected!

 I am so happy and excited that I just had to blog about it! hehehe

This one is Zeus.

The underdog robot. 

Immediately when he went fighting we thought "OMG! The robot looks like a nerd, a push-around." But hell yeah!

Super cute father-son combo! I think the best combo of this kind so far in movies!

Haha. In this scene, you would see the cute sexy bum of Hugh! 

I super duper love the kid in the movie - Dakota Goyo.

He's a super cool kid who had the most amazing acting abilities and he is so super cute!!! Super LIKE and LOVE!

Masking Sticker Set For Scrapbook Addicts

When I first saw these stickers I fell in love with them at once. The sticker colors and patterns are to.die.for! This is most definitely every scrapbooker's ultimate sticker collection. Each envelope comes basically with 27 sheets of different color and design. You will never find 2pcs that are the same in each set.

You can also write onto these stickers as they are made out of paper. So that means you can easily make labels/captions with these gorgeous stickers. 

These sticker sets comes in two unique sets: the red version and the pastel version. The red version are basically darker colors and shades while the pastel version is obviously the lighter version. The pictures above so far are those from the red version. 

Here are pictures of the pastel version:

Each sheet comes with strips of 7mmx65mm, 15mmx65mm, and 13mm dots. To put in words, every sheet has ten stickers including two narrow strips, four wide strips and four circles which means there are two hundred and seventy individual stickers in the set.

To illustrate:

For a more detailed look of each sheet inside each envelope, see pictures below:

Here's the red version ...

And the pink version ...

Aside from scrapbooking, here are various fresh and great ideas on how to use these amazing stickers:

You can buy these beautiful stickers at my multiply site:

A Review: Over The Past Few Months, I Ate...

@Cafe Laguna Ayala Cebu - the original Cafe

To the owner: I just want you to know that last time we went there, we were very dissatisfied with the service of the waiting staff. ALL of them are not so service-y and too slow. As in major slow. I asked for water since my baby was coughing and it came like 10mins after! OMG! The waitress didn't even say sorry when she served them. She goes on explaining in a not-so-polite tone that the glasses were being washed that was why it had taken so long. That's one family never setting foot again on that restaurant. Been advising friends also about the bad service. Sheesh!


@Siam (Ayala Terraces) 

weee! had a gread time with my HSKUL friends. We have not seen each other for like 5years!!! Though one bad thing happened-that I lost my phone that night in the damned taxi I rode home. May you be accursed my phone - to whomsoever is the cold-hearted fellow who made it his even when he knew it wasn't his - yes you taxi driver. Accursed you more for giving me an excuse that your receipt machine is out of paper that was why you werent able to give me one! haha

Anyway, to Siam, the food was great. We ordered not 2 not 3 but 4 plates of rice just for the 6 of us (5 of us were girls). Huge eaters. haha I love their chicken meal with the garlic flavor on it. I forgot what it was called. I love all their food. Yummy!

@Shakeys (SM)

I am so disappointed they have service charges already. Their food price is already that high enough. Why are all pizzerias having service charges already??? Can we not eat pizza at your place without the added service charge? And what service are we talking about here? They just bring you plates, forks, spoon, paper mat, menu, take your order. At first they were all like so service-y but later on they became deaf. Maybe they don't want us to pay. I paid almost P600 there for me, for my sister, and for baby macy who hated their spaghetti. Sumting wrong... What a high price for a pizzeria for just 2 and a half of us.

@Mang Inasal (Consolacion branch)

One thing to say, hahah naa muy gwapo kau na waiter.. as in.. mayta dli bading...hahha Iya g.touch akong kinaon na chicken na bukog! ahhah eww nmu oi.. pero gwapo ghpn ka...hahaha

Heed: SM City Cebu, For Improvement

1. Damn your drainage system around your mall. 
It had been like 2 floods occurred. As the big guy in that area, take heed. For crying out loud,     the current of river that forms after a heavy downpour is around you. It's your responsibility also as a merchant to care for the well-being of your customers.
    PLEASE DON'T WAIT FOR A 3rd FLOOD.










2. Damn your receipt details during SALE.
OMG, got me so frustrated when I looked at my receipt last time SM Dept Store had a big sale last week. You wouldn't know which items get the discounts coz they sum it all up at the end of your bought item list and then deduct the total. They have this gibberish-for-crying-out-loud-numbers beside the deduct-able amount. 


IT IS NOT OK! VERY VERY VERY 100% NOT OK. Transparency PLS. It's a receipt FOR customers! Not for your managers/database! We need to calculate what we bought and if there really was a discount! Be damned... For a retail store so BIG and popular, what a MAJOR FLAW.


You must have felt I'm such a whiner and a hater. In truth though, I really love shopping at SM. In fact, whenever the office offers GCs and ask us which store we would have them for, I would always choose SM. The ambiance is great, the huge selection is great, the staffs are OK. All in all a good shopping experience.  However though, their stuffs are a bit pricey. One time, I saw these Nexcare water-proof-cartoon-print-band-aids at ACE Hardware, they were priced like for P160-175 I think. And I bought those same band-aids at Rose Pharmacy for only P120. Huge difference if you ask me.


Going back to the complaints department, I really hope SM would do something about them. Especially since I will be going more often there as soon as FOREVER21 opens which by the way no info has been out about when its opening will be. I am sooo excited! :)
