Storm Sendong (international code name: Washi) unleashed its fury in Mindanao in the early hours of December 16 while most people were sleeping. The death toll has reached 200, with close to 500 missing in the flashfloods caused by heavy rains. It's a sad footnote to a tragic Christmas that will be observed in the affected areas this year, notably the cities of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro in Mindanao region. Most of us who were living in Manila and enjoyed a sunny weather were unfortunately unaware of what went on and learned about this quite late in the ... Continue Reading...

Accessorize pre Christmas sale ….. yippee!
Don't you just love Accessorize? I do. It's my go-to place for bling-blings and other cutesy things.

THREE DAYS ONLY :) I recently attended the opening of their new store in the ground floor of Midtown wing of Robinsons Ermita and ... Continue Reading...
Spotted: Hello Kitty
Even now that am officially middle-aged :) my heart still melts at the sight of Hello Kitty. Am not an avid collector like some girls, but I try to take photos everytime I see evidence of Kitty madness. Like this Hello Kitty Lounge at the Taipei Taoyuan International Airport bathed in pink and other bright colors - I still would like to see the Hello Kitty rooms at this hotel in Taiwan. Then I went shopping at the Noel Discovery Bazaar 2011 at the PICC Forum Tent yesterday and saw this Hello Kitty car at the parking lot. Joy, joy, joy! Am not sure if I can ... Continue Reading...
Divisoria shopping with Mama Sita
I think it's crazy to go to Divisoria at this time of year! Everybody's flocking to Manila's best bargain haven to buy gifts, food and other stuff for the holidays. Just the same, I joined a Divisoria shopping trip sponsored by Mama Sita Mixes & Sauces last December 1 and survived with the skin of my teeth. Am exaggerating :) The crowds weren't so bad during that time (maybe because it was raining) and I was glad to see certain areas of Divi that I didn't see before. Here's our group pic. We met at the famous Roxas Boulevard landmark, Aristocrat Restaurant, which is ... Continue Reading...
