I ENVY PEOPLE who can sleep properly and easily shut-eye their way out of a night’s worry. I’m not a morning person and I don’t stick to a regular sleeping schedule. I fail at getting up at the same time everyday and for some reasons my appetite has been lost. :s Or if I may have a raging one, it must be occasional binge, one that provides me superhuman comfort (think turon with ice creams!! XDD). Days like this, I can’t fight bed gravity; I would need a coupla’ cups of coffee to instantly get the perk-me-up mood. And I know it’s bad since caffeine interfere nightime sleep but they are simply delectable in my tastebuds! Haha. All this heat is festive and lazy and fun to oversleep but summer is summer! :]]
So for those lazy days when I’m feeling grungy, these stuffs are the comfiest things I do in the world to get that bright morning spirit, but are certainly not short on the benefits:
1.) Chow down on quick and easy dishes!
I love preparing breakfast, so today I made a… *drum rolls*
How to make Strawberry Butter Sandwich:
• Take a small bowl and add strawberry, butter and sugar to it.
• Beat it until you get the desired consistency.
• Cover and refrigerate it for about 2-3 hours.
• Spread it over bread slices and enjoy it immediately.
♥♥♥
I love the finer things in life and eating strawberries is one of them. But I don’t over-indulge, except if it’s chocolates ‘coz that may just land me a gross mystery illness of sorts (OKAY TOTALLY RANDOM STORY) so for added flexibility I tried Yoga, but this most of all…
2.) Do aerobics!
For your viewing enjoyment, here’s a hiphop aerobics video at Slimmer’s World from the summer of 2008:
Flexibility needs TONS of baby steps to take. And since I do it regularly, it’s second nature! I don’t know, Aerobics will probably ruin your life ‘coz it’s addictive and all but I don’t want to get a balloon belly either. I don’t have a flat tummy though, but I’d rather like it cute and cuddly like small pillows. Mehehe. ~ And just recently: Ezeck’s in Town (SEE: the chinky-eyed guy on the aerobics video)!! Remember his despedida HERE? And it’s not like everything about reunions is all grand because in the mix, there’s the most hurtful part of consuming tons of the hard stuff. But Aerobics I must say is helping heaps to burn of all that beer! Yeaah. :]
♥♥♥
3.) Watch quick summer hairstyles videos by Bubzbeauty!
Because they make a world of difference. ‘Nuff said.
♥♥♥
4.) Go out for a bike!
And this is like 500 days of summer inspired.
♥♥♥
5.) Have a cute desktop!
What to do: Download cute icons here . Find a nice wallpaper on the internets, right click on your desktop, and tweak in your creativity to get your morning groove going.
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.
I love movies, it’s a good waste of time. And when I viewed SALT, I was at the edge of my seat in amazement! In retrospect, I didn’t expect my lazy weekend to be that awesome since it was a usual day of date with this certain guy, hee :3 but once we had our tickets and got our fish and chips plus lemonteas ready, it was a movie date like no other. Especially with Angelina Jolie starring in it oh-so-lusciously. MY GAAD, always gorgeous..gorgeous.. and gorgeous! Super mom + super actress + super spy! In many ways, I truly admire her.
Moving on, the SALT movie got me stucked in the theater seats enough to hold my pee for about an hour at least, LOL. And if it can, it would literally blow my mind for the action and the thrill. Although too tiny details were explained, you can figure it out by the end what’s going on. I SO LOVEEE HER ROLE as a SPY/ASSASSIN! This reminds me of my Diablo days of playing and it’s uber awesome gameplay. So yeah, HANDS DOWN to the director and storymaker of this film, you guys did a great job enough to make feel like I was part of the action!
And P.S., Does any of you know if it has PART 2? For me, personally movies are lame when they leave you hanging!! NOT NICE at all! And I don’t suppose a movie should be cut up into heart-stopping slices of episodes. HAHAH. We all hate the feeling of “bitin”, or perhaps we don’t? XD
Pardon the exclamations, but all I really wanted to say is that you guys better watch this movie and get a box of popcorn ready before watching Angelina on giant TV screen this week. I give this one a three thumbs up, (feet included) lol.

Today is apparently a no-rice day. So I’m having rolled pizza with vegetable stuffing, ham, and mozarella cheese. My cousin made it for me at home and I had a fun time watching her do it. It was super easy to make! I suggested to help out though, but she instead asked me to just watch. I DROOLED! It’s filling and healthy and it looked lovely.
Breakfast at work: Two fresh rolls of pizza paired with coffee. Did you know that homemade pizza is healthier than the ones bought from Shakey’s or Yellowcab? Less expensive also plus easy to do. Don’t ask me for a recipe, Google it, demmet. haha XD
Zoomed out 4X than the previous photo so you can have a full view of what’s on top of my side desk at work. Nearby my food, can you see the Dream Angels Heavenly lotion? I mentioned it a while back HERE.
Other stuffs here: Baby Bench Colonia in Jellybean, Victoria’s Secret’s “Berry Kiss” Lotion, Victoria’s Secret Garden “My Desire” Body Splash, a card reader, a coffee mug and rings!

And Mom has got me some new accessories that she bought from Quezon province last weekend which I can add to my jewelery box and wear at work. It’s perfect!
Most of my working clothes have solid colors so I was in need of layering them up with beady, sparkly accessories in colours.
Thanks Mom, you really went into my mind!
Did you know that the shell earrings are baked so that it would be soft enough to stick those gold butterflies in before dried off? I wonder how they bake it? What comes to mind is food however!! HAHAH. XD

And a photo of Miley Cyrus from her “Can’t Be Tamed” music video.
In a few days, I’ll be dancing for an event at Accenture with Salinggawi Alumni. And this is the exact look that I plan to pull-off for it!
However, all that practicing gave me this:
OH PAIN!!!! Got this last Sunday during our dance rehearsal. It had a lot of hardcore floor works and technical stunts that can break your bones, hopefully mine didn’t, and instead got this. I have this realization even before.. that when you dance, injuries are inevitable. It would be painful to you in many instances, but at the end of the day, you have nothing else to worry about because that kind of pain is fulfilling nonetheless and will keep you strong.
I sound like a saint, geez. XD I cover it up anyway by using Kokuryu cake powder. Works like magic. Hee :3

I love mornings. It’s when the warmness of the sun starts to seep into the sky, and nature is painted in incredible colors. It’s love at first sight, it even beats my heavenly cup of froyo. Had you been following this blog for such a time you would have known all of this by now. But today, I’ve decided — I’m actually going to spill a secret and stop being fanciful: for as much as I love mornings and doing my morning rituals, I also hate waking up on those hours. This makes me feel somewhat a hypocrite. But just because I’m being honest doesn’t mean I’m totally all that, do you feel me?
And speaking of, feelings.
Feeling the sun on your face while still in dreamland, being tapped on the shoulder by who knows who to force you to wake up, hearing the alarm clock ringing, hearing whatever that distracts your slumber mood… isn’t exactly the most awesome fun feeling in the world. Or perhaps, it also is?
The grumpy gravity pulling you back to the bed is horrible. And you can relate to that, I know.
It’s like, hello Mr.morn, I’m still obviously 404 right here, and you dare wake me up? Wake me up at like what..5 in the morning? Or 7 o’ clock whichever minute. But 7 would mean I’m very late indeed, so yes, I should probably go back and declare it at 5 am sharp. Not that 5am is my favorite time of the day, and all this would wind up with MORN =MOURN/ morn=morning.
It’s silly, diba.
Thing is, I’m a night owl slash early riser combined (that also probably explains why my eyebags have gotten fat like a doughnut. yes, a yummy, fat doughtnut. *lol*) who isn’t exactly a morning person which is why getting up for me is a struggle sometimes.
But on the other hand, on mornings like this, whenever I would wake up with all that grumpy feel of gravity and bed, do I also consider grabbing a hot cup of caffeine. Nothing like a one, big, hot cup to start my day right.
And then I’m a girl enchanted.
Mornings are like coffee, it’s bitter and sweet. Though it’s hard to get up early, the smell of caffeine in the air nevertheless will breathe you into energy. It’s a bittersweet fix to fill your morning spirit. It’s a bittersweet fix to give you life. ~siD
