Her Fairy Tale Beginning

Some of the multitude of photos during my bestfriend's wedding. I can't believe I managed to squeeze into my dress after all the "gluttony" I subjected myself into the weeks prior to the wedding. LOL

Going for Cloud Number Nine

This was what I wore to our eighth anniversary with the boyfriend. We haven't got the time to go out out of town for a little breather so we settled for a simple romantic dinner.

Being together for eight whole years, I couldn't imagine what life would have been if I didn't give him a second chance and didn't mind to look at his feet. Yes, I fell in love at first sight with his feet. Weird and funny but so true. If it weren't for his lovely pair, I wouldn't have talked to him then liked him eventually. Then I would have missed falling in love with my soulmate and bestfriend in the whole wide universe.

To my bai, seven year itch is a myth. I am looking forward to our ninth and of course a lifetime with you. :)

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going

Four days to go and it's our company's Christmas Party and this current hectic schedule of mine will be a long gone memory. I so can't wait for this to be over. You know I don't dance and sing (well only in the bathroom at least) with a legitimate audience like never in my life (except in grade school.LOL) so you can just imagine how stressful it is for me to practice all the moves. Teamwork is more important to me than being subjected to a ten-minute agony of showing my poor dancing skills that's why I said yes to this. tehehe
So here's me hoping I don't trip on my 5-inch heels while I dance my ass off. LOL.
Honestly speaking, my ass hurts. I must have sprained my pelvis during practice.
So help me God.

I dream of pine trees in December

1. The trip was for one day only but it was one helluva fun!

2. I almost did not make it because I accidentally scheduled our trip during my best friend's weekend wedding. haha

3. Baguio's climate is the best! We walked the whole day in our multilayered clothes but we didn't even have an ounce of sweat. I'm wishing Cebu's weather would be like Baguio so I could get to wear my beautiful vintage coats and jackets. But then again, the beach is my first love so I guess Cebu is still perfect for me. tehehe

4. I was kinda excited for the "ukay" in Wagwagan but I was more than disappointed because the prices were exaggerated. So i went home empty handed. huhuhu

5. I don't know, I'm not really into men in uniform but the cadets in PMA are just so cute in their prim uniforms that I was kinda blown away by their cuteness. LOL (Shhhhh, don't tell the boyfriend.) And I'm digging their man purses!!!

6. Pine trees make me happy. Who gets happy seeing trees? I do!

7. When I get rich, I'll buy a beautiful loghouse in Baguio with a perfect fireplace. And drink hot chocolate in the veranda with the hubby. Sigh..

The past weeks were a total chaos. I have been juggling work plus a lot of extra curricular activities for the coming company-wide christmas party. But if there's one thing that's consoling me right now is the fact that we'll be going to Baguio next week! I so can't wait. Hope the weather cooperates this time around. Please please Lord let the sun come out and bless us with the coolest breeze in Baguio. Too excited to done my coats. It's about time I let them out of closet-misery. hehehehe

Let the sun shine on me

I spent the holidays away from the city to escape the chaos that usually happens on Halloween. As much as I love Halloween for the sole reason that I get the chance to wear crazy costumes I wouldn't dare of wearing on regular days,I passed up for this year because I hated the overflowing booze and the consequent hangover that goes with it the next day.
So this year's holidays were spent at the boyfriend's hometown in the country.
The palce is a one-hour drive from the city. I've been there numerous times already but most of the time we just stayed in the confines of the boyfriend's home because the boy was always catching up on his sleep.
But miracles do happen because for the first time he had the energy to take me to this beautiful place he promised to take me the last time.
We climbed this hill which overlooks a quarried mining pit. The sun was up but the breeze was cool. Perfect for picnic and laying on the grass. It was as if we were transported to the outbacks of Australia or something.

P.S. I dyed my hair black again after two years of having brown hair. :)

Death by a Polyester

It was my office mate's birthday today and we had a feast during lunch break. I think I over ate on the dessert because now I feel like a snake which ate a month's worth of prey. I feel like I don't wanna make the slightest effort to move (well except press the keyboard as I type). LOL

Truth be told, eating is my next worse vice...after shopping of course!tehehe

I have been slacking on the need to exercise. I so want to fit in my bride's maid gown for my bestfriend's wedding this December. So from this day forward I promise (as in pinky-promise!) to burn some of the calories I gained (from binging on too much junkfood and frequent visits to fastfoods) by hitting the pool and swim a couple of 50 laps per day. Swimming is the only form of exercise I love. I don't like hitting the gym coz I get sticky all over after the routine. With swimming, I feel refreshed after every bath.
