Flaming Wings!




Yet another food post!
Hahaha!

Philippines has seriously a lot of good food here.

(Whilst blogging all this, I AM ACTUALLY STARVING, huhu.)

Flaming Wings is another underrated restaurant in BF homes and their food tastes as well.
Personally, what I enjoyed the most was the dessert.

WICKED DAMN OREOS, haha!
For the main course though, the taste was so exquisite. 
They were chicken tenders with a choice of dippings that go with the taste of the chicken itself.

YUMM! 












And again, that's it for today! Hahaha.
2 posts in a day, huh? Must be really bored.

Much love,

Chop Stop!



Hello readers! 
It's almost my sem break therefore, I can...somehow guarantee that I'd post a lot during that time.
Anyways, this post is all about my food..trip to Chop Stop!, at SM BF. And may I remind you, the food was hella great! 

Having to type about it and even remembering how it tasted is actually making me hungry, as well. Nyahaha!




This is literally a short post but I hope..you somehow enjoyed looking at this piece of art.
Haha!


Stay safe!

Zark's Burgers!

What’s up, readers?


I’m finally back on track with writing my blog posts and this would be an exciting one since
They are all about food. Haha!
(Note: I’ve visited many food places here therefore this will be a short post, only dedicated to one restaurant. Sorry for the lack of photos as well! Woops! Haha.)


At the moment, university life has been really exhausting but then again, it’s actually a miracle that we have time to go to such places in the weekend.


As my university is inside an estate, the whole area’s filled with awesome places to eat in and man, I can’t even exaggerate how great the food is, unless you try it yourself! Haha.

Zark's Ultimate Burger
1/4 pound cheese burger with cheese sauce in bed of fresh veggies, topped with
sauteed mushrooms and bacon

Anyways, back to the topic, my friends discovered a seriously delicious burger restaurant near SM BF, and it was called ‘Zarks Burgers’. The serving’s huge and the food tastes amazing! A literal OH MY GOD! Haha.

Can’t forget how the price of the food is super reasonable too. For such a big serving, I have to admit, I was expecting something even more expensive than that. But no! Not only would you feel so freakin’ full from all the food but you will be hella satisfied!

If I were to rate this, it would be a 100/10! Haha!

(To check out more, check out their menu in their website!)

That’s it for this post!
Watch out for my next post, where I talk about another restaurant called ‘Kimono Ken’.

Hope you enjoyed!

Much love,
E

Update! (Living in a new country and all about my first few weeks at Southville University)



Hello, readers!
It has absolutely been a while now, goodness!
I had to post something here in my blog and lately, my first month is in an amazing track!
Having to leave Dubai made me so heartbroken but knowing that I'll be back there in a few months 
makes me think that this will be one fast ride.

As a freshman in my university, I was expecting for it to be really boring or really stressful.
Wait, the stress part is true but heck no, not boring at all!
I've been having loads of fun and as well as trying out some new things whilst I am in the Philippines.
No doubt, despite all the fun and excitement going on, there is this exhaustion that'll just drain you but..its somehow the good type of exhaustion.

As of my busy schedule, posts would be delayed and I want to apologize in advance.
In my last post, I have mentioned that I've got loads of blog posts that I'd love to show you all,
and I swear to you, it'll be real soon! 
So, again, I can't wait to show you all the wonderful experiences that I'm going through at the moment.


For now, as busy as I am, an update is all I could do as my drafts are in my laptop. 
Hopefully, a blog post would be updated either this week or the following.


Thank you for coping up!



Much love,
E

Graduating High school in 2 weeks. WHAAAAAAT.


Hello, my readers!! I absolutely want to apologize for not blogging for almost..2 months now?
A lot has been going on and I don't even know where to start explaining about me being super busy for a couple of months now. And if you're going to ask me why I haven't blogged since it's pretty impossible to be that busy where you wouldn't have time to blog.. Well, my old laptop got corrupted and somehow reached its end. Sad. Haha. So, I was busy and had no laptop. Talk about a complete nightmare. 


Anyways, my finals are about to start tomorrow and doing a blog post at 11:19 pm pretty much is a big deal because 1. I could be sleeping and 2. I could be sleeping. 
(But SLEEP IS FOR LOSERS, haha, kidding) 

Well, since I have filled you up with my nonsense, let's get back to the real topic. 
I am graduating in a few weeks and oh my god, I can't tell you how surreal it feels to arrive this very moment.
I've got mixed feelings about this, honestly. I'm somehow scared of having to leave everything behind but somehow excited of what the future has for me. It's  50/50 situation but hey, I'm sure this will be one fun adventure.

I don't have much to say as leaving sucks but at the same time, you just have to.

As John Green said, "It's hard to leave- until you leave. And then it is the easiest thing in the world." 

This post is definitely the most random one that I have done. 

I wanted to update y'all atleast about what's been going on and this is the best I could do.

I've got loads of upcoming blog posts prepared and I'm so excited for you all to read it!

So..that's all for tonight's blog post.

Much love,
E

February Favorites!


A very late February Favorites blog post, woops!

Well, despite it being the second week of March, I still can't believe it's March already and..yeah,
here's the part where we insert the quote, ''Time flies when you're having fun." Hahah!

To be honest, I had no intentions of posting this since its already a bit late for it but hey, my blog, my rules. 
Hahaha! 
(But seriously, I just wanted to post something..you know...relevant.)


(Off topic now, sorrrryyy!)

Let's start off with the beauty products that I've been loving recently!


  1. 2- Way Foundation brush & Eye Shadow Brush

  For the record, I've had this brush even before but I've been using it recently so I just wanted to add it up to this post. And might I add that this brush is AH-MAY-ZING! Hahaha! Atleast for me it is! 
Totally recommending this! 

PRESTIGE COSMETICS


2. POND'S Lightening Facial Foam

Well, I just came from a 2 day camping trip and I have become so tanned because of it. I had this way before too but since again, I've been using this so recently just to get my normal color back, here's me showing it to you guys! And yep, I recommend this too! The thing I love about this actually is that how it makes my face feel so fresh after I use it. It literally makes my face so light and it's just soothing.


I'm not a really big fan of glosses but I've been using one that I somehow didn't know I had till I looked at my makeup box and boom! Found this and used it. I think I got this a month ago and this is from Forever 21. I love how nude it looks like when its applied. You wouldn't even notice that you're wearing lip gloss. And I just want to point out this literally...tastes good, hahahaha!



BOOOOK(s)!

This is my first time adding a book to a month favorite post but might as well do because the book that I'm about to show you is a book that I have read when I was Grade 6, I believe. And ever since then, I loved it all the way till I got my own copy of it. All thanks to my love, Nicole for giving it to me as a gift!

Paulo Coelho is such a great author and other than the book, The Alchemist which is written by him too, this is probably the second best book I've ever read from his collection. 

VERY MUCH RECOMMEND IT!



MUSIC!! 


1. Best Day Of My Life- American Authors




Been loving this song so much because it makes me real happy and I just like the feeling I get whenever I listen to this song. American Authors did a great job on this one! 


2. On Our Way- The Royal Concept



This too has been my happy song, I've been recently loving these types of songs, I have no idea why!
They just give out such good vibes and I can't help but feel hyped up whenever I listen to this.
All thanks to Glee for covering this song and let me say that their cover version of this song was great too!


3. Shot Me Down- David Guetta ft. Skylar Grey


I've been addicted to this song so much that even while I'm taking my exam, I have the need to sing Skylar's parts, haha! An awesome remix, I must say! 

 And lastly,
4. Adore You- Miley Cyrus vs. Cedric Gervais


I love both tracks, the original and this mix of CG, I actually love all of CG's remixes and you should check him out! 
But then again, its impossible for you to not know Cedric Gervais, hahah!



That's all for today y'all!
Hope you enjoyed!
Thanks so much for reading!

XOXO,
E

Stay tuned to my next blog post where I will write a review on the Heat Protect Styling Spray I got from Syoss!

Makeup+Shoe haul! (Isadora & Rossi Milano)



Sick blogger coming throughhhhh! Hahaha.
I've been wanting to post this haul about a week ago but I was busy therefore it was posted now.
(Literally facepalmed myself because....)

Well, the reason why I had this haul is because my prom is coming up and new beauty...stuff needed, hahaha!
(Stay tuned for my upcoming post that I'm so excited about and its me getting ready for my prom, haha)


I literally can't think of anything to say right now that would make the introduction look bigger(?)
 so..let's get to the point, haha!


(Oh wait! While I was uploading the pictures here in the post, I remembered the reason why I bought another brand of makeup.. Well, as I've been a fan of the big cosmetic lines, I've heard of one certain cosmetic line that I've been wanting to try and that is, IsaDora/Isadora. I actually tested the products that I bought in their line before buying it and I was pretty impressed. All thanks to Lamcy Plaza's Lifestyle branch! Haha.)



Let's start off with the shoes, well, I don't have much heels but I've been using these a lot because
1. They're comfortable!
2.  Come on! It's Rossi Milano, haha!



Black and Gold Ankle Heels
Rossi Milano


Now this is a pair that I've been wearing a lot whenever I got the chance to.
You can turn a casual outfit to sassy with this one!
Totally love it!


Classic Black 2-inch heels

Here are the few products that I tried in IsaDora's line and certainly wanted to take home with me:


Build-Up Mascara, Extra Volume, Waterproof
IsaDora



Waterproof Mascara, IsaDora


Moisturizing Lip Glosss, Red Carpet, #21
IsaDora


Can I just say that this is the tiniest packaging for a concealer, totally amazed at how small it looks, hahaha! 



Perfect Coverstick Concealer
IsaDora


Concealer shade: Medium, #2


Well, that's all for today's post! I hope y'all had fun and it would be cool if you tried all the products here in this post. (Hashtag no regrets, hahaha)

Kim's birthday!



Hey bloggers!


This blog post is dedicated to my one and only Kimmy who I promised that I will post something about her in my blog.

To start off, here's a little (pretty late) speech for her:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BBY! Hahaha. (omg this is awkward) 
You have grown into a wonderful girl with great knowledge and I am so proud of you. You've given me unforgettable moments and I hope that'll continue. Whenever you need me, I'm always here. Don't hesitate to call, message or whatsoever. 
Well, that's all. Happy (belated) birthday!
I love youuuuuu! xx

P.S, the dinner in Hardrock cafe was yummy!


(Assume that there's this long pause after the speech because I'm..still confused on what to say next.)

Oh dear, I'm running out of words to say  type.

Anyways, here are a few pictures that we took:

With my girls!
Left to right: Knikola, Kim, Christine, Catherine, Andrea and...me. Hahaha.


Yes, you guessed it, the birthday girl is the one on the right.
With the really cute meow sweater.





With the lovey dovey weirdos. Hahaha. 











Although a lot of you won't be able to relate to this post, I just wanted to share it with you guys. Hahaha.
(Happy ((belated)) birthday again, Kimmy!)
Hope you readers enjoyed!

Much love,
E

January Favorites 2014!



It's finally January 31st and oh my gosh, it's actually February tomorrow!!!

(Man, time flies so fast.)

Well, to me, January has been one stressful month and wow, the first chapter of 2014 is now complete!
This saddens me too though, because my high school days are nearing its end.
I'm very thankful to overcome tons of obstacles this month and I want to share my happiness with y'all!
(...by blogging about it. Umm...)



Okay, back to my topic.

JANUARY FAVORITES!!

Let's start off with my favorite January tracks that have officially been stuck in my head the whole month!
Hahaha.


1. Beyonce- XO



I just love listening to this song when I'm outside and just roaming about, it's got a light feel to the tone and it just soothes me for no reason! 

2. Lorde- Team



I've been loving Lorde's songs but this has been, by far the best song I've heard from her. From lyrics to its tone, I just love it!

3. A Great Big World ft. Christina Aguilera


Oh my gosh. This song just..speaks to me in every way. (whattt)
I've been loving this song so bad that I actually had the habit of always wanting to listen to it atleast once a day. (that's weird, i know) 
This song makes me sad but the lyrics,tone, everything. I love it loads! Haha.


Well, that's all for the favorite music section, haha.

Next off, we've got the favorite series of the month.
Hmm, to be honest, I've been watching loads of series but my most favorite would be:


1. American Horror Story


I am a big fan of creepy/scary series and oh my gosh, AHS has finally creeped me out the most in their recent season which is American Horror Story: Coven. Apparently, their season 3 just ended (which is the coven) and the last episode was just...mindblowing. Tons of plot twists and the storyline all throughout was amazing!

2. How I Met Your Mother 


ROBIN AND BARNEY..Well..I SHIP THEM SO HARD YOU HAVE NO IDEA, HAHAHA (Fangirl moment, sorry.) It hurts me so bad that this is the final season..but I really do hope they change their mind, hahaha. This serie has never failed at giving me mindblowing moments and man, this show is just..legen (wait for it..) dary! Haha!

3. The Carrie Diaries



 CARRIE DIARIES!!! AHHHH. (Wow, I've got a lot of fangirling moments here in this blogpost, hahaa.) This serie has got me falling for Sebastian Kydd and their 70's-90's outfits.


Well..as you noticed, there's no beauty section here in the January favorites is because..I've been using the sames ones that I showed in my blog post, "What I use when I do my makeup". 
If you haven't checked it out yet, 


Well, I hope you all enjoyed this blog post!

Much love everyone! xx

What I use when I do my makeup!


This blog post is all dedicated to my makeup products that eventually either make me look like a person or a coloring book. (Depends on how I put them, hahaha!)



To start off, I recently bought makeup brushes, let's just say, my previous brushes started wearing out, therefore the result is me buying new ones. Anyways, I haven't used them for certain events yet but I did try them before putting them here in this blog post and they actually turned out to be really good. 
(Reason why I'm stating this is because most brushes turn out applying makeup to one's face really bad, resulting in bad application) 




I've been recently using this Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse as my foundation and it has always been helping my skin and so as the turn out in the end. And as for the little bottle magingy next to it, is also a foundation but also a concealer. (I don't know if this is making sense but that's what's written in the little bottle magingy!)


I'm a sucker for bronzers and blushes but my favorite has always been Red Earth with the shade of Sun Flash. The blush powder, on the other hand, has no name for its shade but let's settle to the basic. It's pink, hahahaha.



I've always been a fan for compact powders, concealers and mascaras and the one's I've been using are Max Factor's Creme Puff which I absolutely adore because it doesn't really show that you have powder on and it looks natural. The shade of the powder is Candle Glow and I highly recommend it for the people with fair skin! For my eyes, since I have a problem with black circles under my eyes(It's a gene thing, got it from my Dad, I suppose.) I always have to wear an under eye concealer just so I won't look like a dead person walking around. And I've been using Max Factor's concealer with the shade of Fair and it really helps my dark circles to somehow disappear. Now, for the mascara that I've been using, it has been Rimmel London's Scandal Eyes. My aunt bought this for me all the way from Italy, so thanks, aunt! Haha! Anyways, if you love compact powders and all the other products in this picture, I recommend you try using them!


Wow, this is actually the longest post I've ever done without it being pictures only. Haha! Anyways, I love lipsticks. Actually, whatever's in this blog post right now, I absolutely adore them all and yeah, I think that's obvious! Hahaha. Okay then, the lipsticks/lipbalms that I've been using either lately or since before are these ones. Starting from left to right, I have the Long Last Lipstick with the shade of High Voltage Pink and this is a kind of lipstick that would look hot when you wear those bad girl outfits. (Umm, what? Haha!) Next, I have a lipstick that I got from Philippines and its by Ever Bilena Cosmetics with the shade of Strawberry cone. The shade of this lipstick is so cute and it also smells so good! (Literally smells like strawberry.) Anyways, next to the strawberry cone lipstick, I have the Constance Carroll with the shade of True Pink. A super girly color, lets just say! Next to that, I have, I believe a drugstore lipstick. It has no brand but its safe and cool too. The shade is dark red but as applied, it gives out a light red thing so if you actually want a dark red, you should try applying more until you get the color you're satisfied with! And lastly, the BabyLips by Maybelline with the shade of Cherry Me. I've been using this because it gives out the color I just need when applying makeup. They're not too red but they aren't that light either. So, if you want a natural red thing going on in your lips, you should try that! :)

Shades
Left to right: High Voltage Pink, Strawberry cone, True Pink, Dark Red and Cherry Me.


This has actually been my longest...post..EVER. Hahaha! This was also supposed to be posted yesterday but I was actually busy yesterday that I didn't have time to do it, haha! 
But better late than never! 
Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed this beauty related post and I can't wait to write more for you all reading this and actually getting entertained. Haha!

Much love, 
E

Note: I've been using these products for a long time now and yes, I recommend it but if such that these don't apply to you, I hope it still helps. And no, this is not a sponsored post.
