Bookshelf and Desk Tour

Image
So this is an overview of my bookshelves. This is not the usual bookshelves because it does not have the dividers and it looks like a closet, therefore it is more deeper. So I decided to put two rows in one compartment, a front and a back row.  This is the back row of the top compartment. It has books that I have read and won't probably read in the near future.   It has my children book from when I was a little girl.  Math Books, Classic books, Adult Romance book, Adult Mystery Books,  Beauty/Fashion Related books,Playbills from play's I've watched, and booklets for concerts I've played in when I was in the orchestra. Moving on, this is an overview of the front row of the first compartment. This has a mixture of books I have and not read, series that are incomplete, and comic and graphic novels. Then this is the second compartment, which only has one row.   I have series that are complete, stand alone young...

Haul (May 20 – 27, 2015)

Image
  This are the things that I bought when I was on a road trip with my family. Some of the things I got were souvenirs for my friends and I. 1.     Pink Chiffon – Bath and Body Works I bought this because it was so cold in Baguio and I forgot to bring a lotion. 2.     Angels Only Perfume Set – Victoria Secret This scent is not overwhelming like other victoria secret’s scents, which I like. The set comes with a full size bottle of the perfume, a rollerball, a lotion and a body wash. 3.     Jacket – Old Navy I love this jacket because the material is very light and I love the neon color. 4.     Yoga Pants – Roxy It’s very comfortable and stretchy. The fabric is thick so that there will be no panty lines visible. 5.     Strawberry Jam and Peanut Brittle – Baguio These two are famous delicacies in Baguio and it is perfect as pasalubongs for my friends. 6...

Summer Road Trip: Ilocos Norte

Image
For our final destination before we went back home, we decided to make a detour to Ilocos Norte. We stayed there for three days (May 25 – 27, 2015). We first went to Badoc to go to Juan Luna Shrine but sadly it was under renovation so we did not had the chance to go inside. But the tour guide talked about Juan Luna’s painting and life. We then check in Playa Tropical Resort in Currimao, which was so nice. The place is a Balinese inspired beach side resort and we got a tierra, which is a cottage type house, which can accommodate 8 persons and it has its own pool. Since it was on the beach side you can have the option to swim in their pool or in the beach. And I had so much fun swimming wit h my family.  For more information about Playa Tropical Resort click the link --->  playatropical The next day we went to tour around Ilocos Norte (Paoay, Laoag City and Batac) Marcos Presidential Centre (Batac) Paoay Chuch (Paoay) ...

Summer Road Trip: Baguio

Image
My family and I went on an eight-day road trip from Manila to Ilocos Norte. It was my second time doing this route with my first time 12 years ago. Our first stop was Baguio where in we stayed there from May 20-23. We checked in The Manor, Camp John Hay, which was as beautiful as I remembered it 12 years ago.        The Manor was amazing. The staff was very welcoming and the rooms was super nice. The following day we went on a tour around Baguio. First we went to the Mansion Then we went to the Wright Park was so beautiful because it was surrounded by many flowers, which was nice because you do not see that many flowers around in Metro Manila. Next we went to Mines View Park, which has an amazing view of Baguio. We also met this adorable dog-named coco. Baguio Cathedral La Trinidad Valley where we got to buy so many strawberries for a cheaper price compared to the ones in the markets and they were organ...
