Random Thoughts of an Uninspired Blogger

Posted: May 2nd, 2011 | No Comments »

An uninspired blogger is pushing herself to write random thoughts to bring her blog groove back. There’s a dozen of pending posts at the draft section and all she does is write a short introduction, think of an awesome title and clicks the draft button. Nice. I wonder when she’ll ever publish those posts. See, […]

The store, whose name means “very full” (Pao Pao) and “small snacks” (Xiao Chi), is where you can find authentic Taiwanese tea-based drinks and Taiwanese street food items at very affordable prices. The place looks like your typical milk tea […]

My Makeup and Costume for Pole Recital Photoshoot

Posted: April 30th, 2011 | No Comments »

I can say I’m a late bloomer.  I mean, I could have done all these things earlier – dancing, makeup, fashion and sewing!  But instead, I took a route to the corporate world first.  Not that I regretted ever studying Accounting and working for a corporation… I think all of that was meant to be and I enjoyed the journey I took and the people I’ve met along the way (which also incidentally prompted me to start my blog).  At least, no one can say I’m a dumb bimbo now coz I have proof – I’m a licensed CPA baby! but meh, I discovered that I wanted to do more things other than corporate.  I have used the left side of my brain and used it well, it is time for me to use my right brain
Makeup!
I knew I had to finally do this since I need to […]

Interesting Facts About Dehydration

Posted: April 27th, 2011 | No Comments »

Everyone I know seems to be complaining now of the summer heat. While we can’t really control the weather, we can definitely control how it affects us. The hot weather and being under the sun means you’re losing water fast. So be sure to drink plenty of water regularly. Below are some interesting facts and […]

Disney in the Stars Fireworks Display and How to Capture It

Posted: April 27th, 2011 | No Comments »

Disneyland is all about happiness and magic!  What better way to celebrate a lovely day than to watch the Disney in the Stars Fireworks Display at night?  Disneyland shows fireworks display everyday at around 8pm to wrap up the day.
I love fireworks and I’m always amazed at the art of pyrotechnics!  Disney fireworks are always fun because they do it around the castle, in harmony with Disney music in the background and video projections of different clips of Disney movies and cartoons along the castle’s walls.  The Castle is well lit with different colors that also change in sync with the fireworks and the music from time to time.
I was so happy, I cried with joy!
The music they played are of course snippets from our favorite Disney songs.  The fireworks gracefully dance along with it.  Vince captured the video for this, so if you want to view how the magical […]

Lipton Sparkling Iced Tea

Posted: April 25th, 2011 | No Comments »

I was at the grocery the other day and a promodiser called to me to try this new Lipton Sparkling Iced Tea. It’s basically your typical ready-to-drink iced tea that’s carbonated, thus the “sparkle”. This product goes down your throat like a typical soda and I think it’s being marketed as your “healthier” alternative because […]

Where to get Bunny or Rabbit Food in Manila

Posted: April 25th, 2011 | No Comments »

Dog food is everywhere!  You can find it in grocery stores and the most basic of pet shops.
Sadly, there are not a lot of bunny stores in Manila.  Here are the pet shops that carry bunny food, well, the ones that I’ve been visiting so far.
 
1. Bio-Research
They used to have a branch in Robinson’s Manila, but it closed down. 
You can go to Greenhills branch (that’s in V-Mall, in front of the car park building )
Or, you can also go to Robinson’s Galleria.  I forgot which floor though so just ask the information desk, but they have more choices of bunny food there.
 
2. Petty Pets
Their only store (so far) is in SM Megamall A ground floor.  In front of either Shakeys or Pizza Hut (I forgot) It’s near the Entrance/Exit door.

They only focus on bunnies, birds, gerbils and hamsters.
I found the cutest little things!

I die of […]

Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel, Enchanted Garden and Disney Characters

Posted: April 25th, 2011 | No Comments »

Part 4 of my series of Disneyland posts!
I didn’t want to put everything in one post!  Disneyland deserves more than just one and I don’t want to cramp everything in one go
And for this post, I’ll be sharing with you my experience staying in Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel (yep that’s right!!!) and dining on Enchanted Garden and meeting Disneyland characters!  Staying at Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel really completed our vacation because there are many perks in staying at any Disneyland Hotel!
Just to enumerate a few:
1. Living in a Castle
You will feel like you are in a huge castle!  Every detail of the hotel was well thought of from the carpet, to the wallpapers, the garden and even the tiniest details in our hotel room was all filled with Disney characters and well – Hidden Mickeys!  They were everywhere!

Looking at this photo makes me want to go back […]

Hygiene Freak!

Posted: April 24th, 2011 | No Comments »

GERMS are everywhere!  I watched this episode in one of the Discovery Channel shows that was all about germs – telephone, computer keyboards, ATMs, food trays in food courts, elevator buttons are just filled with billions and gazillions of germs!

This is my daily life.  In front of a PC tinkering on the keyboard everyday.
Zoom in – to find very dirty keyboard in macro

*eeeek!*
and, I eat while I work!

Good thing I have a healthy supply of Hygienix!

I bring one in my bag (it’s so handy)

and I have another one I just leave on my car because I am always on the go and hand sanitizer is always handy on a road trip!
and I also have another one at home just because, I blog and eat at the same time (keyboard very dirty)
also, we have house pets that can also carry germs or bacteria with them

Don’t worry, the bunny is not dead, […]

For any person who is interested in history there’s many little tidbits of information out there. Stories from companies and various food packaging is as interesting as it is diverse. But not every beverage has as checkered of a past as the beverage Fanta. If you’ve paid attention to the ads in recent years then […]
