Fickle Weather

I really hate the weather these days. especially when it’s raining. Why? Because….. if you’re already a corporate slave and you’re working hours end at around 6pm, tendency is.. you will end up staying more hours in the office just to let the rain pass… and worst of it, you’ll gonna be stuck in a TRAFFIC!

Good thing is, I was able to bring my camera and took some photos since most of my colleagues went home already. ;P I tell you, I’m quite shy to have my pictures taken if there are so many people around. hahahaha!

cheap find: black tiered dress

Days before the Spelling Bee Musical Play, I've been thinking of what to wear for the event. As much as possible, I don't want to spend too much on it since it was only a one-day event. But the problem is, I want to wear a dress. Technically, I do have one... actually two... but since I lost a lot of weight, they're too loose for me now. get the picture? :D

So hours before the musical, I went to the mall hoping to find a cheap yet fashionable dress (semi formal?). And yes, I was able to score one -- a black tiered ruffle dress which I bought in SM Department store for only Php 350. Such a steal right?


Again, sorry for the poor quality of pic. I felt bad when I didn't bring my camera that night. The dress is way, way better in actual. :) In the pic, I worn the dress with my recent haul from Zara sale a few days back.

i was too lazy to dress up even though i was off to mall for some errands. i opted for a comfortable casual outfit so i can move freely. :P

Bayo stretch tee
GAP denim cuffed shorts
Crocs prima in cotton candy
vintage charm necklace from bazaar
Alba black leather watch

and now, i'm into fashion again...

yeah, finally... after being so busy with work.

now, all i have to do is to prepare myself, get my camera ready and start striking a pose.

so let's get started!

on getting healthy

I've been on a diet for the past few weeks and it's effective, I think. I lost 4lbs. already so I guess it's a good sign to continue my 'healthy' living. So last night, I decided to make a 'healthy' bento.

I called it, Wei Xiao Bento (Smiling Bento)

On the first layer of the bento, I put some mixed fruits ( grapes, apples, pears, orange and pomelo )

On the second layer, I put some boiled young corns, lettuce and boiled quail eggs. I designed it to form a smiling face.

This is the second time I created a bento, and I think this one is better -- and healthier. I think I need to plan what's on my next bento, what do you think?

lost in translation ..

I went to a Korean store to buy an accessory. There stood by the counter is the Korean store owner around 25 to 30 years old. I approached him to pay the item and then gave him a 500-peso bill. The item is worth 125 php.

korean guy: ..... (*silence*)
me: .....
(* i rather suffer in silence type,observing what was he doing*)
korean guy: ...... (*searching for bills*)
me: .......
( *i assume he wanted to ask me if i had smaller bills, but still i waited for him to ask*)
korean guy: ......
(*still does not talk, maybe he can't speak english and then gave me the change*)
me: ...... (*i didn't speak either..*)

i counted the change silently, then found out that he gave me 380 instead
of 375.. then i assume he didn't have coins. so i placed the money in my wallet
and then finally i spoke...

me: kamsahamida.. *bow and then smile*
korean guy: ... oh... *amused...he finally smiles back and then bow*

Hahahahaha! The guy's expression was so priceless -- he was so amused that he couldn't imagine that i can actually speak Korean.. though i only said thank you... hahaha!
