I HAD A MASSIVE BREAKDOWN on the day I upgraded to the latest version of WordPress, like holy cow! I’ve mustered all my lifelong energy to downgrade and back, but the glitches come uninvited and they are pretty much wrecking my immune system now. Imagine inserting ghost media beyond repair, and I was starting to worry coz I have nil idea until I have read few wordpress plugin tutorials. Also, Google adsense is failing me. I asked everyone to click on my ads, and now it has vanished completely. I’m sorry Google. I srsly need to read policies + be a good listener in general. *_*
On a brighter note: I’m sharing 5 Things I Love This Week!
Galaxies, universe, stars. I’m sorry I always stick to rainbows and stars ‘coz I like my pictures photoshopped. HAHAH. Zowee guys! But I can’t help it. This is one of the photo shoots I did with DOS Photography a few months back and if you’d like to see the raw, unedited, shot ~wells ~ CLICK HERE. You may also schedule a photoshoot with us ‘coz we’re kind of in a wanted model photoshoot Philippines stint right now!
Anyhow, I like how this isn’t the usual photo shoot since Januz and Jill always add a little dark theme in the mix ~ FAVORITE! {:

Angry Birds Accessories. OMG! These are quite possibly the cutest Angry Birds pictures of the millenium. I was browsing Klay Girl on Facebook the other day, and I saw soo many Angry Birds accessories and even some Plants Vs. Zombies stuff! I think my eyes just bled. o_O Anyway, it’s 100% handmade! Also, made out of Polymer clay. I’m JEALOUS. I need a workshop!! XD
♥
Revlon Makeup Collections. Sometimes a set of makeup completely blow my minds, this is one of those times. Seriously I dint expect to get all of these for FREE ‘coz makeup addiction runs in the family. *TEARS* :] Tito Boy, thankyou heaps for the balikbayan pasalubong! It was love. <3
♥
Vintage Bag and accessories. Worn this beautiful vintage-inspired bag and accessories last Friday! It’s also given to me by my Tito Boy. The fambam and I went to Trinoma to catch the final installment of the Harry Potter movie. Awsm!
♥

Floral Accents. These are basically a few shots in the bunch coz I’m too lazy right now to do self-shots. For the love of florals and pearls :] Everyone’s asking me why I don’t post enough pictures of myself and just blog about food and stuff. HAHAH. Okay, there’s that last pic. Enjoy.
Speaking of, enjoy. Enjoy the rest of the week, you guys!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the Tagaytay Highlands, not only is it one of the most stunning places I’ve ever seen, but it’s also a fantastic place to spend a few summer days with the family.
Here I’ve got some awesome pictures from our last week’s trip that show its perfect mix of the recreational and residential. How could you not love a place like that? I would want to live here at the drop of hat, after all it’s just 90 minutes’ drive from Metro Manila, just say the word and we can make this thing happen. HAHAH. As if! Did I mention this country club is exclusive to members only? We were so lucky to get invited to a one day trip tour! *_*
Since we were in a private car, our driving directions to Tagaytay is via SLEX, the easiest and safest way. More..
And here’s a video of us at Midlands aboard the funicular at Tagaytay Highlands. We rode it to get to the Midlands Golf Club. It was awesome; my first (but definitely not the last) train ride!
The Funicular links the Highlands Golf Club and Midlands Golf Club. It operates daily between 10am to 6pm and has a travel schedule of every 2 hour on the hour. It will not be operational during thunderstorms, though.
View from the Funicular.
I went weeing a lot and couldn’t stop taking pics because my Titas from Slimmer’s World Gym and the parents are the craziest! :]
Okay you’re probably kinda losing interest already with all that Funicular photo, it’s always the same thing so here ~ a picture of me! :p
and another one!
Here’s some photo from the Tagaytay Highlands Country Club. It was a bad angle, I know.
I haven’t had this kind of breakfast in, well never, (I always eat RICE on breakfast meheh) but they seem to be doing a good job with their breakfast bonafide. Sausage bread, a pretty slice of a brownie and ice cold tea. I’ve actually got more room at my tummy after nomn~ing on this.
I always knew that Tagaytay highlands is well-decorated, but I would never have guessed this would happen. First, good heavens, the interior design, which is completely utterly beautiful, at least that’s what I noticed. Obviously, the owners planned the construction design well.

I’m pretty upset that I’ve only got one picture of these Cable Cars at Tagaytay Highlands, but it’s a pretty good one.
And here’s a picture of me with the coolest parents in the world at Tagaytay Highlands, just waiting for the cable cars to arrive for the trip back.
View from the cable car ride. I really could see myself living in there.
I don’t normally find leopard prints all that attractive, they can get a little overdone or maybe the 80′s just not my style, but I’ve got to say this one I got from some Cubao thrift store won me over. So there ~ I’ve worn them that day haha. And I paired ‘em with white flats! Like it?
Thirfted leopard print dress (w/ long sleeves), Knitted Head Beanie from Kush, White Flats from Cardams and Purple Handbag from Jimmy Choo.
Tagaytay Highlands Suites. Of course proper packing is still essential, should you wish to stay for four hours only or four days.
Highlands Suites offers plenty of amenities; the swimming pool is just one of them!
I got really intrigued by this spacious gaming area that has the entire room for your ultimate recreational activity. Great gaming spot for the boys (and girls, like me). Hah! :]

Dear internet connection,
You are one of the many things to forgive, that even if you fail me fifty percent most of the time, I still forgive you and I still love you. But this is what really bothers me: I dislike your wonky connections and all your internazi. See I was nearly a month off blogging. My dear readers have probably missed me or well, they have probably not. But never mind that ~ this is not the reason why I am blogging. You know what I most realized is that you are sometimes an agonizing love. If you only knew the exquisite pain of wanting something so unreachable it breaks your heart, and quite frankly, makes it go crazy. What the heck why am I even saying this – you’re not even human. Except you are all sorts of exciting and extra entertaining, especially Google and Tumblr and Twitter and FB. Since you keep me occupied, I am forgiving you by all means tonight. Reality is 99.9% you’ll be half functional. But goodness if I didn’t, there would be no more blogging.
SO THISis a celebratory post because I just got a home based job in the Philippines and finally I can lovingly beam down at the corporate world with a huge big smile. YEAAH. :]] And this gets me all sorts of excited because I can now pay extra attention to my tresses, explore a book or two, play the game that I like, do the morning fitness routines at the gym, and while at it – have a blast!
As for the issue of the backstabbingfriends – I’m learning to deal with the drama by staying as cool as a cucumber, lolZ. Since I needed time to figure things out, silence was my best friend. I just don’t get it why some people love diving into heated debates between friends. Not cool okay? But enough with my sensitive side. To contain the excitement, I’m currently prioritizing to hone the skills that I already have. And this includes organizing, researching, and of course – playing schedule ahead of time!
Speaking of play..
Amazing how addicted a person can be when games from Zynga like this are floating around facebook.
Gotta love it, yo. <3
P.S. Do you guys know any Cityville Secrets? :3

P.S.S
I’m making blinkies again! So I’ll be making a lot of these cute blinking stuffs for you all soon!
YOU GUYS probably have heard of Belgian Waffles being the best in the world, but it seems Starbucks do another type of treat that’s equally, if not more, delicioso. As much as I would spend my life avoiding contact with sweets or indulge in chocolate, ice cream & sappy movies for a multitude of health (and heart) reasons, lolz – even I have to admit that this Starbucks’ Chocolate Belgian Waffle looks as tasty as it could be fresh out an oven.
Apparently coffee makes me very emotional. Mehehs.
And that girl I’m with? Well guys, maybe you haven’t heard of her or some of her first ever Etude Hauls ’cause she’s a lovechild…. but believe me or you not: this girl has the daintiest mind in the south to brighten and inspire your day with.
Aaannd I’m so very much excited about our online shop! Hope you guys will stay put after this update because Kat and I have so much surprises next week! Don’t forget to visit her blog.
OKAY, first off – I’m back guys, as if it isn’t obvious enough, LOL. Anyway, what have you guys been up to lately? :}
I just recently tracked my blog’s progress and found out I was actually earning money while I was gone! Since it’s quite a looong time, you would think I’ve missed out on a lot.
Not a lot, if you ask me. But earn in just a few days?? Cool enough!
Even though my blog hasn’t focused on anything in particular yet, posts, which are useful (and are already published on my blog) helped earn the “Nuffnang Payment” for me. That’s when visitors still visit your blog even with the lack of updates!
See that pink rectangular bar on the right? Yeah, that.
It shows what is happening on my blogsite right now! The first update is actually YOU! Nyahaha. :3
And what’s more, it’s being updated in REAL-TIME as new visitors arrive on my site! So it’s actually cool!
In other news: I get a lot of funny search keywords that bring people to my blog! But I will blog about that later, since they are just way too many. Hehs.
Moving on..
By publishing Nuffnang ads, even when you’re in the middle of a glorious sleep, you will get paid!
As soon as you sign up, all you need to do is to add ad units to your blog by copy pasting the code into your blog site template et voila! You can start earning!
Noticeably, Sidneyland blog is simply a record of my experiences and ideas. I guess what I’m trying to say is that just like me, you can also be a blogger in your own right and earn just the same with Nuffnang even when you’re only blogging about everyday experiences!
TRUST ME. The whole experience is rewarding!
For starters, all you need are the ff:
fresh blogging ideas
know your niche
write helpful posts (like this one!)
jazz it up with search keywords loved by Google
and most importantly! know the right blogging platform.
According to a poll from here it’s gotta beWordPress, which I personally use btw!
Alright guys! Just do all of the above andyou can make internet marketing work for you and make your blog doable with Nuffnang!

As you may notice, I don’t write for a profession, and I don’t have deadlines. I write for the simple joy that comes with it. Blogging has helped me grow not only as a person in the online galaxy, but also as a better person in real life. I’ve discovered a lot, and from time to time, I get thoroughly inspired by reading the stuff of other bloggers who are into the same niche as mine. Not saying that I belong in a specific niche already — but quite frankly, blogging has been the kind of competitive yet awesome learning which in the space of 8 months I’ve learned to love.
The competition is tough, but I don’t mind competition to begin with, so it’s all cool.
:)
In a high, happier, note: It feels great to be here and be back to blogging again! :]]
