Last set of questions for the year!
1. Where can I buy that La Sallian planner?
I think it’s free and it can be claimed somewhere in DLSU…but that was 2011 so I don’t think they are still available.
2. How did you get LIV3 backstage passes? omg :(
No backstage pass. We literally surrounded the backstage even if the bouncers were pissed off at us. Hahaha! Thereafter some...

Holidays 2011 ☆
How I spent the holidays (well, after Christmas, actually). It might have made me sad at first that our plans to go abroad during this month were cancelled, but I was pretty much contented spending a night in a hotel. Nevertheless, what’s most important is having family time (and so much delicious food to eat) during the season, and I definitely had a lot of fun...

R&R at Freyja Day & Nail Spa
Yesterday I dropped by Freyja Day & Nail Spa to have my nails done. It was my first time to try nail art (and visit a nail spa) and I loved it! Plus points ‘cause I was also served with a yummy merienda. :D
Freyja offers a wide range of services from mani-pedis to spas and massages, perfect for those days when you need a little R&R. I had a wonderful time having my nails...

1. The card book which you used as a photo album, is that supposed to be for calling cards? :) If you don’t mind, where did you buy it and how many photos can it hold? :)
Yes it’s for calling cards. Actually, I still had to cut the photos after they were developed (because I didn’t know that wallet-sized are bigger than calling cards). I bought it at National Bookstore for around 70+ pesos I...

DIY: Manila Paper Gift Bag
Fun fact: I’m pretty OC when it comes to gift wrapping. So this year, I thought of making gifts more personalized by making gift bags. I was supposed to buy kraft paper but I don’t really have time so I searched for an alternative and guess what I found - manila paper! Any way, it kind of looks like kraft paper (Manila version? Haha).
Here’s a mini tutorial on how I did these...
