CORON, PALAWAN, Philippines....♥!!

The title itself shows what I wanted to tell, I heart Coron. I fell in love with this place and I'll surely be back and explore more of it!! After my Camiguin escaped last year, I will consider this also as one of my favorite summer getaway. :) hehehe

It is true that "It's more fun in the Philippines" and I could say that one of the must see destinations here in our country is Coron Island located in the Northern part of Palawan and just less than an hour boat ride from the centro town. Can you imagine travelling in a crystal clear blue water with the cool breeze of air coming into the ocean and blowing your hair off ...ahhhh! what a nice vacation..!!!.

Hmm to start with, thanks to my officmate BB for giving me an opportunity to joined with them. :) well, I know our tour package, itinerary and accommodation was made by DIY coron. We stayed 3 days and 2 night at Amphibi-ko Lodge in a deluxe room, with aircon and personal sized ref. ooh I forgot we have small TV too. Bathroom was clean and well kept, but the water coming from the heater was slow plus dumumi. Free toiletries such as tissue paper,2 pcs small soaps (hena de pravia soap) hahaha and a towel. In terms of services hmmmm i might give them 50 % rate. Free breakfast and lunch. It took them so long to preape the food. We were not satified with with the servings at super to the maximum level ang bagal.

/Our room is in the 2nd floor where you can see the  mountains and the  ocean/

I would like to share it with you guys how beautiful Coron is. Places we've been for 4 days was  soo awesome!. Kayangan lake is indeed beautiful, we had to climb up the slippery trail, and it was exhausting (sobrang taas ng mga steps) whaaa i almost give up but when I saw the the mountains  duh! and the lake was worth it, went swimming, very relaxing. Had lunch (super kain kargador ) haha mga hungry monsters.I love the maquinit hotspring and even though we just stayed there for 30 minutes i guess.. lol i still like it :).. by the time we went there the weather is gone bad.. heavy rains poured on us.. bad timing. Good thing water in maaquinit was really hot,comparable to a hot wet sauna, which relieved our tired muscles. But the sides of the pool were full of moss!! (di bagay sa mga maarte na ayaw ng lumot)

I'm an 80's baby :)

dekada 80 's & 90's : panahon ng kamusmusan at kasiyahan 

8 years old kids today have Facebook, Twitter, Ipods and Iphones. Ako, when I was 8, I only had coloring books and brickgame :) sobrang laki ng pinagkaiba. Sobrang proud ako na isa ako sa mga tinatawag na 80's baby. Ang panahon na kung saan di pa nauuso ang mga iphone, computer at kung ano ano pang mga hightech na gamit na meron ngayon. 

Panahon na kung saan ang mga kabataan ay napaka simple at payak ang kamusmusan. Walang alam gawin kundi ang maglaro sa kalye at maligo pag malakas ang ulan habulin ni nanay ng tsinels at tambo kapag makulit. Ano bang meron nung 80's hmmm yun lang naman yung panahon na kung saan ikaw ay IN kung meron kang padded blouse, New wave, naninigas ang buhok mo sa spaynet, jumper at nakikipag telebabad ka sa telepono :) at kumpleto mo ang pocketbook ni martha cecila hahaha joke!!

Naaalala ko nga, sobrang hilig ko maglaro sa kalye kasama ng mga kalaro ko na kasehodang tanghaling tapat basta makapaglaro lang ng patintero na laging agawan na maging patotot kasi lagi sa gitna ng guhit nakapwesto.. hehe, ang putbol na kampihan pa ang drama 😁, sudsod at piko na mapudpod na lahat lahat ng tsinelas basta enjoy parin. Ang chinese garter na pinagkabitkabit na goma, 10-20 na walang katapusan sa ka-tatalon. Ang taguan at  luksong tinik, luksong baka, tumbang preso na habulan too the maximum level hanggang sa madapa dapa na at magkasugat 😊 hahaha nakakamiss din maging bata, lalo na yung mga panahon na nagtatago pa kami ng mga kapatid ko para di lang ma-utusan na bumili ng suka o mantika sa tindahan 😂 hahaha pati yung pangungulekta ng mga wrapper ng candy para gawing pera sa laro ng tansan.. Natatandaan ko nga na 5 piso ang balot ng stork candy dahil sa kulay nitong green, nanghihingi pa nga kami ng tansan ng beer o softdrinks para may pamato lang hahaha... nakakatuwa talagang balikan

Sino nga bang makakalimot  sa larong ito:

Langit lupa impyerno, in..in.. in.. impyerno

saksak puso tulo ang dugo.. patay buhay alis ka na diyan..

o ang walang kamatayang laro na:

Nanay, Tatay gusto kong tinapay

Ate, Kuya gusto kong kape

lahat ng gusto ko ay susundin nyo

ang siyang magkamali at pipingutin ko...pipingutin ko sa tenga...

One, (clap) one, two (clap clap)

Dumating din yung panahon na nauso na ang holen,dampa na gamit eh goma.. yung salagubang na didikitan ng bubble gum kung pagsasabungin hahaha yung mangunguha ng gagambang bahay.. pagandahan pa sa gagamba kasi sikat ka pag malaki yung nakuha mo... manuod  ng tv at mag-ipon ng teks.. hmm yung teks,, yung nabibili na maliit na papel na puro mga eksena sa pelikula yung nakalagay.. :P hahaha

sobrang nakakaaliw at nakakatuwa alalahanin yung panahon na tayo ay mga musmos palang :) Sa dami ng mga naging uso noon at ngayon siguradong di ko maiisa-isa at mapupuno lang ang papel at mauubos ang tinta :) 

ang sarap maging bata.. ngayon sobrang mahal na ang intersest nag mga kabataan.. hehe internet,gadget,load at cable :) hehehe

My Elizabeth Arden Haul - Review

Hi ladies! so today post would be my Elizabeth Arden Haul😉. Yup! I went out shopping the other day and ended up buying these products. I only went to the store only to buy the Classic Elizabeth Arden Green Tea EDP in my mind but decided to grab also the Tropical EDT perfume and Green Tea Bath & Shower Gel. I'm so curious about this EA Green Tea Shower Gel that's why I bought it and the price is only 189kr Swedish krown which is not bad for a 500ml of product, right?

So let's start with my first one! The Classic Elizabeth Arden Green Tea,the box is simple but quite nice and it has the same design in the front and in back the box. (picture below) 

My Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mist - Review

Hi Ladies can you guess if I own any Victoria Secret perfume or maybe a fragrance mist? 😉 Yup! Absolutely yes! I do own, not only one but three fragrance mist and they're my favorite. 

Back in the days when I was in College, one of my dear friend own VS pear glace and I remember how I loved that scent. Good thing is that my friend who is so generous enough to lend us her perfume whenever we are at school hahaha yah know what they say!"that's what friends are for".Imagine we have same scent through out that day haha!😉 #whatacollegelife. So because of that I always wanted to buy it too. But that time, I know I'm just a student and its so expensive for a student like me to buy a VS fragrance mist its not in the budget so I tell my self "wait till you get a permanent job and you can buy as many perfume as you want"

I am still in love with it after so many years now and because I loved Victoria Secret Fragrance Mist so much, I decided to buy some of their other scents to try them out!😉 Although my first love is Pear Glace, I must say I have a new favorite now. So without further ado, here's my review on Endless Love, Vanilla Lace and Love Spell. My current favorite from Victoria Secret Fragrance Mist Collection.

How to Clean Vintage Louis Vuitton Mini Montsouris

I am so happy when I got my first Mini Montsouris (PM), I bought it last month as a birthday gift for my self and I'm beyond so lucky to purchased it in a really good price. Since this version of the bag is already discontinued and no longer sold in stores, you will most likely be buying it in a pre-loved market or any consignment store online (where I got mine) like Thebrownpaperbag, Fashionphile, Vestiairecollective and the RealReal. But if you are looking for the very best bargain I’d actually recommend you checking out some Facebook resale groups like  LV Addicted–Buy Sell & Chat but you can always send photos to a third party authentication service to be sure if your bag is real. Aside of that you can also find tons of vintage bags selling on ebay, but like I said it's up to you to take the risk buying pre-love bags online.

Scoring a deal on a pre-owned Louis Vuitton Bag is really a great feeling, but let admit it that sometimes the affordable price tag comes with a little wear and tear unless you get super lucky to find one that is in pristine condition and nowadays the price of this bag range around 500 up to a thousand USD (and the price depends on the condition of the bag). As for me, my bag is made in the year 1999 and it is 20 yrs old now. When I received the bag it was not in great shape but not that bad at I cannot use it. The canvass on the top of this bag is a little bit scrubbed but all in all it only needs a little reconditioning and cleaning (the vachetta is little bit dry and it has this musty smell on it that I really don't like).

Personally, I really love the vintage look of this bag and I'm not too concern of having a dark patina on the straps and handle, what I am aiming for in this bag is to get rid the musty smell, conditioning it and make the hardware look shiny again. Please note that it is only my experience I am sharing and not a professional advice (do your research). Also I am not an expert on cleaning leather goods (this is just what I have done and also what I saw others doing; and it works!). If you choose to follow or use the products that I mentioned here : advice at your own discretion/risk.

a wonderful Christmas!!! :)

Yehey! can't imagine how time flies so fast, Christmas vacation is now over and gosh what's next?taddah! NEW YEAR and fiesta naman! 😍 well, counting the days before our kickoff party sa work and I'm sure with that we will have free meal (again at walang kasawaang Amber) LOL another calories.

Wala ako masyadong nakuhang regalo sa bahay as if pag ikaw na ang nagttrabaho eh ikaw na ang nagbibigay ng regalo hahaha pero sa work *rolled eyes (medyo ang dami) not really madami tamang dami 😂 (picture below: kriskringle gifts I received this Christmas)

Merry Christmas :)

I got glittery hand lotion for something shiny, that small thing on the lower left. That small stick notes for something small haha desk calendar, kitty post it, coin purse, chupa-chup lollipop, small organizer with pen, blue bag, chocolate candy, bracelet and a set of personal hygienic tool na  from my former manager. I also received some edible cupcakes and candies and sweets like brownies oh soo yummy👌 (di na kasama sa picture kasi nakain ko na lol). 

Enjoying this month so far..... and its makes me feels like a kid again 😍

I'ts All soul's day

November: Exact month where we celebrate All saint day and All soul's day. This is a national holiday for the entire country to pay respect to the dead ones. Some people went home to their provinces to visit the graves of their loves ones and for us, this is the day we can spend time to visit my father. We usually do this yearly 😊. My mom said that we should continue to take care and remember those we love even after their are gone 💓.

We show our love to them by offering flowers, prayers and even food 😉 . I don't know why but my mom used to do that.. anyway just to share.

Our pinoy version of All soul's day (Undas or simply called Araw ng mga patay) is kinda different because everyone keeps the tradition of going to the cemetery and spend the whole day with their love ones. Kids loves undas too, wherein they can play and make some candle balls. I remember when were kids we used to collect melted candles and sell it .

go for the TeA :)

Me and the rest of my family really likes coffee and switching into a new brand of beverage (which is TEA) is kinda unusual for me and recently, I found an article that drinking tea may help reduce weight 😉 Well, why not try it! 

I know, I need to reduce my sugar intake na so meaning less sweet. I am now drinking 3 cups of tea a day, no milk and no sugar or even no lime at all (no calamasi or any sweet honey on it just pure 😂) as what my 3 days diet requirements (tea or water) lol :) hahaha

I used to hate tea before and I am not a tea fanatic at all but only the one that is called processed tea. Cold tea that you can buy in a local supermarket with different flavors too. I know lots of people loves tea and I respect that and I really do.. that's why now I'm one of them now LOL :) I love tea!! :)

yummms! tea and pankaka is 💜

Who doesn't like cheese cake? I know everyone love cheesecake and of course I love cheesecake too! that's why for today's post would be about my STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE (BAKED). Basically I know how to make the no-bake-cheesecake but I'd like to try other way around so here is it! My oh so yummy recipe. It is easy to make guys and I hope you should try too!

Fika time ☕

My white sauce CARBONara (Macaroni) ^_^

My new recipe in this blog!!... lol :) yep (you can buy instant carbonara sauce in the market). Carbonara has been very easy to make. :P

I only know that macaroni was supposed to be cooked in lots of cheese and mostly baked style, but hello.. we don't have oven to do that...LOL. so  let's make some alternative recipe hahaha :)

My macaroni carbonara (opps kulang ng sauce haha :) but yummy!!)

hmmm what I need to used to cook this meal?

Ingredients:

3/4 cup of Macaroni ..if you only have a macaroni because any pasta will do for this recipe.

 (You can use any type of pastas, and you can adjust the amount of pasta you want).
1 teaspoon of oil (some use Olive oil.. but that's expensive.. use butter too para lalong masarap)
1 clove of garlic and onion,
4 pcs of sausage or bacon, sliced (we usually use slices bacon, but we don't have any in the fridge that time but a HAM and HOTDOG...lol)
1/2 cup and 2 tablespoon of Cream (we use nestle cream)
1/4 cup grated Cheese 

2 pack of delmonte CARBONARA sauce (easy sauce)

1) Put macaroni/any pasta into a pot of boiling water with salt 

   (Usually my mon do that and everyone do as what the packet has instructed hehe) :P
2) Heat up a frying pan, and pour in the oil or butter (don't let the butter burn or else your

   carbonara will definitely looks brown hehehe).
3) Then add in the garlic and onion. Fry until fragrant, not brown.

4) Add in the sliced sausage or bacon.
6) Drain the pasta up once they're ready.
7) Add the pasta into the pan which contains the garlic and sausage.
8) Pour in the cream and the carbonara sauce, put cheese, and toss them over low heat. Do not

   overcook or else your pasta might get saggy.
9) Finally add in salt and pepper to taste .

pREsENTING!@!!!!!  My macaroni Carbonara is ready! Hmmhmmm, though it doesn't taste as nice as when there's bacon in it I'm still fine with it.. best merienda so far with hot coffee :). I'm craving for a carbonara so pwede na yan!! hahaha enjoy my come what may recipe :)

Seriously, I often buy coffee from any establishment .. really! swear!! I would rather make my own coffee that will satisfy my taste than to buy an expensive one (haha can't afford lang pala!! haha joke!!).... haha but what else the reason why i hooked up on this promo..hmmm mybe because it's LIBRE haahaha!! kidding! well, masarap naman yung kape sa totoo lang :) and free creamer pa!!.. actually i got two coupons pa nga eh hahaha  :)

Can you imagine .. you dont need to avail any minimum purchase just to have a cup of coffee... (reg price of it is 25 php) diba pila kape sa mga MCdo hehe dahil libre! :). Their MCcafe premium roast coffee is made up of 100% pure arabica beans. (i just read that on the coupons haha!) It's really smooth when you drink it and you can actually smell the nutty toasty aroma of it, a perfect coffee to start our day. Now i missed it!! hehehe

So be alert!!...Be on the lookout for the Mcdo's crew ... they might distributes again some coupons  for this kind of promo! How I wish!! hehehe :).!!
