Flashback/Throwback

Posting flashback or throwback photos on IG has been a fad nowadays right? Even though it's a Saturday today, I'd like to dedicate this entry to these two popular hash tags: #throwbackthursday #flashbackfriday :) LOL

Anyway, one of my favorite things to do when I'm at the mall is to window shop and fit clothes. I remember, I always go and check out the clothes in each store and if I like the style/design, I take it with me in the dressing room and try it on--even if I don't have any intentions of buying! 

You see, that's my defense mechanism.. If you can't buy it, just fit and take a picture lol

I don't have unlimited cash so buying whatever I like was never an option *sad truth* lol =/

So yea, through the years, I've collected some pictures I've took inside the..

*drum rolls* 

dressing room! :)

I've been taking #ootd's and #selfies even before IG was freaggin invented y'all! haha

Ladies and gents, I present to you...

my outfit pictures from the dressing room! hahahaha

Who wore it best??? hahaha

So that's the first batch lol I'll post more of these on my future posts so

watch out! hehe ;)

Family Dinner at Racks

It's been a while since we last dined at Racks. But even if we don't get to eat here often, we always..always have such a great dining experience. Especially, with their juicy and tasty ribs ;)

For starters, we ordered their Onion Brick P195

I love unique presentations like this. Onion Rings stacked like a wall anyone? lol

During that time, Racks had its latest offering which was called Blue Plate Specials.

Basically, all your Racks' favorites put together in one plate.

My mom got the Jamaican Jerk Chicken (P345)

While my dad, brother and I all got the Sweet n Smoky Pork Belly (P395)

As usual, the Pork was so tender and flavorful. The only thing that turned me off was the sauce.

I find it too sweet, overpowering the flavor of the pork. I guess I would have enjoyed this dish more without it lol

For dessert, we all shared this Mississippi Mud Pie (140)

If you're a chocoholic, then you'll certainly love this one. So sinful!

Recent Underwear Haul

From Forever 21

Blue and Red Lace Thong: P160 each

Turquoise and Mint Thong: P225 each

As I said before, F21 will always be my go-to place for cheap and cute underwear!!

Sexy bow detail at the back

Romantic rose detail at the back

************************************************

On a different day, My mom and I went to the lingerie section of SM department store and well what do you know? most brands were on its 30-50% off sale. Teehee

We dug up through the bundle of underwear in the Wacoal/Sorci Area and here's what I got.

Black Wireless Seamless Bra (P595)

Original price: P985

This is a great find since I'm always on the look out for the perfect T-shirt bra. I like the fact that it's wireless since I'm not really a big fan of under-wired bras and the padding is just perfect for that extra "boost" that you want for your twins ;)

Blue Plaid Bra and Panty Set

Bra: P537 from P895

Panty: P177 from P295

I rarely buy bras with a bold design like this one. I usually just buy plain or those with lace details. But I don't know, I just got totally smitten when I saw this lol

So happy with my purchases! Thanks again I LOVE KOI!

Bohol Aug 2013

 Last week, my friend and I had a short trip to Bohol. This, being my third and my friend's first in this beautiful island.

My friend works in SG, so when she comes home to the Ph she tries to go to places she hasn't been to. That being said, she wanted to go to Bohol. Perfect timing, since it's been years since I last went here and I've been really dying to check in at The Bellevue Resort hehe

So here's a ton of pictures from our 3 day vacay woot!

Lobby. Check out that ceiling! I really commend the interior designer of this hotel. It's so modern, chic and uber classy 

Our 2 Queen sized bed deluxe room.

Isn't that the most inviting bed you've ever seen??!! lol

Our unreal view from the balcony!

infinity pool yo

doesn't that look so divine?! omg

moi and my friend, kath

yea yea yea, i look like a dufuss so what. I like this picture very much lol

The pool is divided into 3 sections; 4 feet for the kids, 5 for the adults and this section right here is the diving area which is 12 feet 0_0

Breakfast time! Included in our accommodation was the free breakfast buffet.

Diet was non-existent. lol

Im pretty sure that this is Cebu longganisa. I know one when i taste one lol

One of my favorites, was that eggplant ragout!! it's soooo good. yum!

I love daing na bangus ONLY IF it's boneless. This one however, was not and was very dangerous lol

All your favorite fried dishes. Danggit, pusit, sausages and crispy bacon.

Fancy some mini pancakes?

Cereals section

Arroz caldo and dimsum area

and my favorite of all, BREAD PUDDING omg

This will be the death of me lol

I'm crazy about bread pudding so imagine my delight when I saw this in the bread section lol!

I practically charged my way to get a handful of serving lol

Top is the fruit version while bottom is chocolate. Both scrumptious!!

What I got for Day 2 and 3 ;)

We decided to do our country side tour on our 2nd day.  We opted to rent a car (2k for 8 hrs) from a site I saw on the internet since Bellevue charges too much for this. 

First stop was the Blood compact shrine. Its a monument depicting the treaty of Spaniards and Filipinos. No entrance fee for this one and you could view Bohol sea behind the statues.

Do I even have to tell you what's our second stop? lol

Ladies and gentlemen, the eight (?) wonder of the world, the Chocolate Hills! lol

(ok i googled but im confused if it's still considered the 8th wonder lol sorry)

No words for this. Really. 

Also had a quick photo op at the Loboc Man-made forest.

Could you believe girl and boy scouts were the ones who planted these mahogany trees decades ago??!! and FYI, tree cutting is strictly prohibited in Bohol! You'll go straight to jail if you do.

Introducing, the smallest primate in the world, the Tarsier! hehe

You can only find these in Bohol here in the Phils.

They are actually nocturnal. Years ago, there was no entrance fee and you could touch and hold it in your hand. Now, there's a P60 fee and you can only take pics from a feet away boohoo.

I love love love, ziplining!!

P350 for a back and forth ride!

Back at the hotel, large sized chess deck

#ootd for our last day hehe

We almost pack the same clothes for this trip without talking! lol

Outside our room in the hallway. Isn't this lovely?!

Last swim :(

We love Bohol and Bellevue Resort! woot! <3
