the 31-day blog challenge

while trying to think of what to share to you guys. i came across this photo from tumblr and decided to join in the fun. i always have this bad habit of postponing things which i can just do now, so i hope that this challenge will help me become a better version of myself.

this is watermarked so due credit has already been cited (:

so let's go ahead and start with day 1, shall we? i am not really fond of #selfie so it took me a while to choose what photo to share. i sorted that the photo i will share best desribes me. here we go, no judging!


taken at shangri-la a summer ago (2012)
i love summers!

Fact #1
I AM A CRY-BABY! normally, at first glance people would see me as strong, manipulative, happy-go-lucky, and a lil strict but spare me your judgment because i am a confessed cry-baby. yes! even a needle prick can make me cry (which by the way is ironic cos i am a nurse) or sappy chick flicks. i remembered being teased by my sibs as 'kapayason' whenever we quarrel cos i am always the first one to cry!

Fact #2
I CAN COOK! yeyy. i am officially announcing that i can do tricks in the kitchen. haaha! so what's the big deal? well, i grew up very boyish and whenever mama and papa ask me to do chores like cooking i would easily find excuses not to do it. so what happened? well, life happened! tadahh and i just learn to love the smell of food and the satisfaction you get after making one yummy meal ^_^

Fact #3
COLD IS MY KRYPTONITE. i easily get sick during the cold season. boooo! and i usually get cramps when the temperature gets too cold. so whenever i am on the same room with my boyfriend (who gets sick when it's hot) i gotta have to wear socks or have my own blanket. my brain also slows down causing reflexes to have their downtime. haaha yeah, i'm just weird like that.

Fact #4
MY FAVORITE FRUIT IS BANANA. for a while i thought i was a minion but this just proves that i am a real pinay. there is no other fruit that i will exchange for banana. not even those fancy ones like grapes or kiwi or apple. haaha. i eat bananas raw, cooked, or sweetened.

Fact #5
I WANT TO CHANGE MY HAIR. if there is one thing i want to change in my body, it's my hair. i really have bad, unhealthy hair with very fine grains and i hate it. i would've wanted strong, healthy, wavy and naturally blonde locks but hey i'm pinay so achieving that might need a month's salary plus the maintenance thereafter. but, who knows, i might be able to have that provision in the future *dreamy eyes**

so there you go guys, that's day 1 of the 31-day challenge! let me know if you also want to do this challenge by sending me links of your work! happy day! Xx

vintage photo

because i miss our morning's after work, i will share a photo of a random morning jp and i share a year ago when we still work at the same office (:

we both look sleepy since our work requires us to stay up all night (:

this local resto is located at j center in mandaue. it's cozy and vintage and the food is good!

it's not just a bee, it's burt's bees!

ever since i could remember, i always have dry and chapped lips. whether the weather is cold or whether the weather is hot, my lips look cracked and totally disgusting. it's partly my fault because i don't hydrate myself that my much. i can only average 2-3 glasses a day or 5 glasses max! i think my thirst center in the brain is a little defective cos it wouldn't tell me if i am thirsty and i needed to gulp down some liquid. (excuses, right?)

anyway, back to my cracked lips. in college when i started to hangout with friends and i started dating, i felt insecure when those cracks would breakout since it's such a turn off. so major part of my "necessities budget" would really go to buying lip balms or petroleum jelly or lip glosses to hide those cracks temporarily. you might say that i am exaggerating but trust me, i am not! i would say major because those lippies are small and usually if not's borrowed forever by a friend i am pretty sure i would lost it in a few days. (yeah, something is really wrong with me haaha)

i have not really found the perfect lip balm to cure my chapped lips not until 3 weeks ago when i tried burt's bee. i can go on ranting about how amazing this little thing is but it sure counts most when you try it for yourself. basically what i do is put it in my purse (i am really careful this time since it's not a joke throwing around a fortune) and treat my lips every now and then. my lips really turned out great. it's soft and yes wait for it.....KISSABLE (:

so just in case you're facing the same dilemma, you can always invest in this lil thing and have those lips glow back to it's original softness :D

lemme know what you think! Xx
