Marti In Singapore

        Of all the dubious things in life, this is one of the certain things in mine. And, I am happy to have spent this unforgettable weekend with my one and only.

     
Day 1
September 6, 2013

I think this is the BEST morning I have ever had.

I woke up, not feeling groggy nor lethargic, at around 5:30am to get ready to go to the airport and fetch Marti. I was so excited that my heart felt like it was a blender machine that was about to burst. All I can think of that time was, "Finally, after 2 months!"

The moment I saw this 5'11, wearing coffee-colored leather jacket, and chinito walking towards me, I knew home was finally here. Just like in movies, everything just stopped for a brief moment and all I can see, hear, and feel were his smile, warm hug, and our lips touching each other. I really missed this amazing guy.

For his first day of visit here in Singapore, we went out for a stroll at Orchard Road and had a night out with his friends Dino and Jan at Bugis Plus.

Day 2
September 7, 2013

We just love theme parks. Period.

Happy couple in Happyland. :)

Ended the day at Haji Lane to shop and to have a taste of the famous Nando's Peri-Peri Chicken (Bugis Junction) for dinner.

Day 3
September 8, 2013

I would not miss Kai Kai and Jia Jia's Panda Party at River Safari for the world! My Sunday was complete being with the best man and my favorite animal in the world. And yes, this was my first ever close encounter with giant panda bears and a red panda bear. Thank God there were no glass walls in the zoo unlike the one I visited at Ueno Zoo, Japan. Oh heart, I was the happiest girl alive!

Day 4
September 9, 2013

And, tears began to roll down our eyes. It was time for him to go back home. It was a sucky feeling to say goodbye once more, but hey, I had the BEST weekend and in those four days, I know for a fact that things have gotten stronger between us; that we are certain of what we have.

I am loving him even more. 

Thank you so much, Love, for a wonderful weekend. I feel tremendously grateful and blessed to have shared this awesome experience with you. God is really great for holding our hands together in this journey. See you later, labidabs!

Fully Booked Mega Sale

Fully Booked announced their mega sale last July 2. As expected, book readers swarmed over the sale section and rummaged through the wide selection of books that are on sale.

This is definitely a lucky day for book lovers like me. 

                                     

Books went down from 798Php-1499Php to 50Php-15oPhp. Can things get any better than this?

This is definitely one of those moments where I am screaming for joy while shaking my knees. The moment I stepped a foot in the book store, I felt pure bliss.

Max's Chicken-All-You-Can + F21

For those of you who REALLY know me,

I'm sorry but I have to repeat this again.

I LOVE eating chicken so much. :))

Chicken-All-You-Can At Max Restaurant for only 199pesos

How cheap is that?

To be honest, their chicken is one of the best chickens

in the whole country.

I should know because I ALWAYS eat chicken. ;)

And, how lucky can I get?

It was the last day of their promo (June 10-July 10)

and I was able to experience it.

I went home VERY happy and full.

Plus, I get to shop!

After so many months, finally,

I will be able to change some of my clothes. Teehee!

And yes, for the first time,

I was the one who paid for our dinner. ;)

I Got My Eyes On You

Oh how awful the feeling that you cannot get

what you like the most- an added piece in my butterfly collection. :(

I feel so sad that I could not even spend a bit money to treat

myself and be merry.

I checked the Facebook fan page of Forever21 Philippines

and saw the new accessories collection.

In the rings section, there were a LOT of gorgeous butterfly rings.

And when I say gorgeous, they really are GORGEOUS and CHIC.

My goodness!

I just feel really sad that I would miss adding a new stuff in my collection.

Anyway, here are the photos of the rings I got from the FB page of F21.

P.S.

I'm also eye-ing on these boots. >:)

Butterfly

I don't need to repeat this

BUT yes,
I LALALOVE BUTTERFLIES. <3>

And Accessorize made me VERY happy today.
I have been eyeing this coin purse for months and
I get very frustrated each and every time
I pass by the store
and I don't buy it.
It's just so damn expensive for a purse. :|
It's a rectangular-shaped purse filled with
sequins and beads.
And finally, it's on sale.
From P530 to P159.. ;)
It's worth the wait.
Told you guys I won't be wanton spending anymore. *wink*


And to complete this marvelous shopping day,
I was also able to buy a necklace and a charm bracelet.
Yes, the design of those two is a butterfly.


Some say it's addiction
but I say it's collection. ;)

Forever 21 in the Philippines

The most awaited clothing store

is now here in the country.
The legit Forever 21 is located
at SM Megamall A, Upper Ground Floor.
It opened its doors last July2 around 10 in the morning
and I must say the girls went ga-ga
over the much awaited store. :))
It was pure madness!
The line outside was crazy and long.
This 2,700 square meter store
has all the up-to-date, stylish, and affordable clothes.
I actually thought the price range of the clothes
would be the same as Zara and Topshop,
BUT it was unbelievably way cheaper.(P125 up)
They have EVERYTHING,
from basic finds to Gossip Girl-ish dresses, to Safari-inspired clothing.
And one thing I love most about this boutique
is that they change their styles EVERY month.
How cool is that? :)
I went there with my Skittlez gerlies Nica and Elana.
We enjoyed every second of our shopping therapy
the moment we land our feet at the entrance of the store.
I have seen a lot of familiar faces
from La Salle and the dance community.
And can you believe that
there was a LONG line outside the 34 fitting rooms?
Gosh. It was actually a bit horrifying seeing
a lot of girls trying out their funky finds in front of the mirror,
outside the fitting rooms. :|
Plus, Nica had a small fight with
a random girl at the counter. *fighting nails on*
And we waited
for 1 and a half hours just to pay. :))
Nonetheless, we still enjoyed our shopping day/therapy.
I guess it is just because that day
was the grand opening of F21.
Who wouldn't feel excited, right? ;)

Anyway, it was really all worth it.
I love you gerlies for going there with me. :)
I cannot wait to go back there and shop again.

Here are the photos c/o Nica Carlos and Chuvaness:
