I tried to make a witty blog entry title... I really tried. A for effort? Haha


So I actually don't know if they truly "changed" up their menu but my family and I ate at Hatch 22 last Saturday in Rockwell (THANKS FOR TREATING US TRIN!) we were surprised by the revamp of their menu. Some classic faves like the Bangus Belly and such were removed and were replaced by new breakfast faves like Bibingkoy and main dishes like Fish and Frites and even new sandwiches. Not gonna lie, I panicked at first then got really excited!

I'm not gonna lie, I had a hard time thinking of the proper title that would perfectly convey the message of this entry. I really always try to make my titles catchy but at the same time true- to make them as "me" as I possibly can, whatever that  means.

Lately, I've been dealing with a lot of "waiting" in my life- not just in my life specifically, but in the lives of my friends and family. And I don't know, I always find myself reflecting and thinking about what they're going through, what I'm going through, and if it'll ever get any better. I guess that's why this entry was born.
Please note that I am not a "life expert" or a trained psychologist or anything like that. I'm just like everyone else, someone who goes through life's ups and downs and tries to survive it as best as she can. And if anything, strives to become better because of the struggle. But in reality, life is tough not just because of the challenges it brings, but because of the WAITING that is needed. Especially for the blessings to come.

I hope that with this entry, you can somewhat find comfort in the fact that I too, along with people I know and love, go through life struggles too, and try as best as we can to get through them and become better. Sometimes we just really need to know that someone out there is experiencing and feeling exactly what we are. There is comfort in that.

So here we go, my take on "The Art Of Waiting"

Hey guys!


So I thought I'd make a girly type of blog entry (there are only a handful of these up on this blog I've come to find) about some of the products/things/places I have been loving over the past month/s. I'm thinking of starting a series of these monthly- what do you guys think about that? :)

Most of the products I'm featuring in this post however, are makeup- for the past few months (thanks to a million YouTube videos I've been watching #addict) I've gotten a little and by "little" I mean WAY TOO MUCH carried away with makeup and I've found myself collecting tons of new things and learning how to use them. I guess you can say I'm a bit of a "late bloomer" but I've never really found myself using a lot of products due to my terribly sensitive skin. Luckily, so far, these products have been great on my skin and haven't caused me to break out which is always a plus.

I hope you enjoy this little girly venture I'm trying and please remember that NONE of these products are sponsored- I got these all on my own and am using them throughout the months of September and October and I know I will be using them for months to come. :)

Hello everybody!

It feels soooo good to be blogging right now- I feel a renewed sense of self (#naks #anodaw #boom) and I've got loads of energy (might be from the coffee, sweets and constant napping) and I just feel like blogging cause to be honest, I love being able to share my thoughts on this "little outlet/platform of happiness" (maybe I should change my blog name to that Haha!)


Anyhoo, back to the "coffee, sweets and constant napping" bit, my family and I were able to escape Manila whilst still staying IN Manila (ooohhh soo cool of us #rebels) for the Halloween weekend. I must say, it was my first ever "staycation" and I had SO much fun. I think it really helped that a lot of people went out of town for the weekend which helped make Manila seem less... Manila-ish aka NOT CROWDED. :)

Escaping Manila!!!! ....In a Makati Hotel Hahaha

With that being said, I thought I'd share with you all (my 4 loyal readers), a bunch of pictures and a little bit of what we did from Friday to Saturday. All my pictures were taken with my iPhone and my sister's so sorry if the quality isn't "blogger-esque" but hey, I never really considered myself a "legit" blogger to begin with. ;)
