elianto gift If companies are going to send moi their products to sample everyday, especially if it pertains to beauty, then of course I'll say yes without thinking and transform this site into a make-up blog soon, hehe (just kidding) . Such was the case when a friend of mine invited me to try the make-up line of Elianto, a Malaysian beauty company that just started their operations in the Philippines. My make-up loot consisted of their (1) Pure White Flawless Two-Way Cake, (2) the Aloe Eye Cream and the (3) Honey Body Lotion. I ordered for #1 because I ... Continue Reading...
Exploring Kota Kinabalu, the ‘land below the wind’
KK mosaic Going to Kota Kinabalu was like a leap in the dark. I never knew what to expect there, except that its name sounded exotic enough. After the hustle and bustle of KL, this place was genteel and serene. The people seemed to be supremely at peace with themselves and I can only be a satisfied tourist not having to deal with a single rude encounter (plus somebody returned my wallet!) The city itself was pretty, with its focal points like the jetty, the market and the esplanade, facing the waterfront -- South China Sea to be exact! The lack of any tall ... Continue Reading...

self-portrait Just got back from my marathon two-day, two-night trip to Kota Kinabalu. And photo shows me taking a self-portrait in my hotel room before hitting the tub on a Tuesday night.

At least I was ... Continue Reading...

Care to share your secrets? Here’s mine..
Top Pinoy blogger Retz tagged me to share some secrets (as if this blog is not enough already.) Here's some I can think of: I don't play cards, even solitaire. Even though I have boxes of playing cards in the house and even though I've worked as a casino dealer before and now still work in the casino. My job prevents me from playing or gambling so... (buzz me if you want some cards, will you? hehe) I was such a picky eater as a child. Right now, am a certified foodie but when I was small, my meals were limited to eggs and eating rice with soy sauce. As a result, ... Continue Reading...
