Here we start my Philippine Vacation Trip :)

Here is our first day there. Well we arrived almost 6am from Singapore then we went to eat at Aristocrat then after that we went home to catch some snooze. When we woke up, we got hungry again so we decided to eat out. Uhm I forgot where this food place is. lol. But it's a DIMSUM restaurant.

 I ordered Sago Gulaman. It's so good! :) I miss Philippines already and all their yummy food/drinks! I want to go back soon!

Here are some of the dimsum we ordered. Siomai! YUM!

Fried rice! Hmmm...

 After eating and walking at the mall, we decided to go get foot spa! We went to Galleria (forgot again the name of the spa).

What I like about the spas/massage places in the Philippines? It is Very cheap! The people that work there don't "gossip" WHILE they're giving massages. (well they probably do after they give massages right? hahah!) I swear I went to a massage place here in the US where the massage therapist constantly bickering in her language to another massage therapist and I got so annoyed rather than relaxed. HMPH! But yeah the spas in the Philippines are also very clean, and dark/dim which I likey!

For php300 you get a foot massage for an hour :) That's equivalent to more or less $6!

Me getting comfy at their big chair there.

Adrian is going to get a pedicure too and a foot massage!

Getting my feet soaked ^_^ I was so relaxed. I feel like I wanna go back to the Philippines again and get massages 2x a day! Hahaha!!

Adrian's Dad and brother getting food massages. :P

I also got a manicure! I love the color. I forgot what color though.. I love how clean the edges of my nails. I can never do it myself >_<

After our relaxing day at the  massage place, we went to get some ice cream! Sorbetes!

Here is Adrian's youngest brother enjoying his ice cream :P

That's it for now. I think I only have 3 more updates left since I rarely took pictures there (well compared to the pictures I've taken at Singapore). I wish to go back sometime this year if I get lucky from work and they would let me go! hahah!

Hope you guys enjoyed this post! Til next time!

Forever 21 Clothing Haul & Happy Anniv! ♥

Hello again! ♥ Today (well, technically yesterday 1.11.2011) is the hubby and me's 3rd wedding anniversary. We'd been dating almost 5 years now, married for 3 years. We never broke up and hopefully never will. Haha!! Anyway, here's how our day went:

We went to Fashion Island at Newport Beach. Can you believe it's my first time going there? Haha!! I liked it so  much!

do you see Adrian standing? He's looking at the directory! LOL!

FASHION ISLAND

401 Newport Center Drive
Newport Beach, CA 92660-6939

Do you notice anything? Where are the people? Hahaha! There weren't so much people when we were there. I guess being the weekday, people are either at work or already resting. Great for me. I don't like crowds that much :P

They even have a Koi pond there! big Koi fishes!! ^^

I also went to INGLOT and saw gorgeous eyeshadows there!! For $45/10 pan palette, I think its worth it!! Their pigmentation is crazy like NARS eyeshadows! Even better than MAC in my opinion. Cheaper too if you think about it. You can choose what color you want in your palette. I think my next eyeshadow addiction would be INGLOT -_- I am going back on Monday there to get a palette. LOL!

We went to Forever 21 there (i like how its more organize there than the F21 in Ontario Mills! lol). I was only going to  buy some tights/leggings but I ended up with some pieces I don't know where to wear! Hahaha!! Well, in fairness, I haven't shopped for clothes since I got back from my Singapore-Philippine Vacation :)

Here is our closet. It's pack because we don't have a coat closet in our apartment.

Here's what I got:

TWEED PLEATED JACKET

$32.80

 I love the details of the jacket. Simple stuff like this makes me like a certain piece of clothing.

Here's how it looks like in f21 website:

 Also got some PJ short for $5.80. Comfy when sleeping ^^

& Here is the reason why I went to Forever21 in the first place! HAHA! To get me some leggings. I only found size S on black so I got that one. Next time I'll get brown and maybe white.

They're only $4.50!

Here is my grey one. Doesn't it look comfy? =)

You can find them at the "yoga" section at Forever 21.

After the short shopping trip, we got hungry. Our anniversary was kept simple. It's recession time in our little family and we want to save as much as possible :)

Shhh.. don't tell him but I have a very HUGE crush on him ♥

We went to eat at Claim Jumper besides South Coast Plaza. He got some blended margarita and I got some Woodbridge Merlot (i didn't like it that much!)

Their steak is so good.

I ordered my favorite - Lobster Tail with Baked Potato on the side. & oh steak too.

Overall, I had a great time today. Tomorrow is another day at work. *sigh*

Oh, also JULI from http://jusanctuary.blogspot.com/ sent me this thoughtful package! Thank you so much Juli!! Chocolates and make up are the best ever!! ^^ It's so funny because she put in the mailing envelope: IYAH BABY KO? (lol!) Baby ko means "my baby" which is the term of endearment I used on Giang http://xgianger.blogspot.com/

That's it for today. See you guys again on next post!!!

It's Our 3rd year Wedding Anniversary!

Today is our THIRD year wedding anniversary ♥ I'm so excited that we are celebrating another year of our marriage. We have our ups and downs but I'm proud to say our relationship is as strong as ever. 

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend.

We are not a perfect couple as many people says. Our personalities are different, we have our arguments, fights, and misunderstandings.. but those imperfections just makes our love and relationship stronger.

There was a time that we were against all odds. My parents didn't agree with our relationship, our friends thought our relationship won't lasts long but we have proven to them that our love is better than that. We fought for us, we almost gave up but we just had to remember the reason why we held on for so long: we are meant for each other ♥

Sounds corny? :P It's true. It's a fact. :P

For you I share the cup of love that overflows

And anyone who knows us knows

That I would change all faults I have

For you there is no low or high or in between

Of my heart that you haven't seen

'Cause I share all I have and am,

Nothing I've said's hard to understand

And all I feel I feel deeper still

And always will

All this love is for you

--from the song "For You"

I LOVE YOU ADRIAN! You will always be my ONLY ONE! :)

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!
