6 Things that makes me HAPPY

Joanna tagged me for the 6 things that makes me happy. One thing about me is, its easy to make me happy or laugh. And since it says things, i stuck with things. But beyond all of these what really makes me happy is God. He is so good to us, we could not do anything without him. Families and Caleb, because no matter what happened they will still be the first who cared, specially parents. Kinda different for me because ive recognized 3 mothers in my life. One would be ofcourse my birth mother who i could not ask for any one better, she is the great foundation. My aunt who i call mama, she raised me as her own when my mom could not(due to moms work) and Lola, a very strong women and had lots of love to give.









Purses makes me the happiest out of all the things in the world! Like i said im a PURSAHOLIC! I love them, every time that i come to my favorite stores i feel like a little kid in DYLAN'S Candy store. So much to choose from, i want them all. YUMMY


This is to blame thats why i have so much purses, but dont get me wrong i want more! Keep em coming!!!







My Halo Edish 360 is something that i cannot live without! Its a great way to pass some time at home. Addictive im going to admit. But so much fun!!!







Sushi is one of the greatest thing on earth! Mmmmm... Love love love it!!! I dont think i can live my life without sushi. This is one of my obssession. Trust me, it does makes me happy. Now i want some sunshine roll, unagi, tako, tootsie, the box(from pure) and Hawaiian roll that has mango! Errr lol







Rollercoasters! Definetely not right after i pig out. ha ha
I do love rides, like a little kid at heart that i am. Althoug i use to be terrified at them lol



FROYO! Mojo is one of those places that's only Caleb and i's special place. It has to be because we started going to that place like maniacs. Almost every day, but it is mostly because all of our cutest and sweetest memories. He loves toppings!!! The reason why we walk out of there paying $15.00 is because of his toppings, which i later on pick at. But just because everytime that we do have mojo's we like to walk around shops and talk or sit at the bench right in front of Bebe. Little things like this makes me the happiest.



Movies!!! Love movies, nothing really that much to say except. Movies have one purpose, it always teaches the viewers a lesson. Wether it may be that you can DO whatever you set your heart into or that you Can LOVE Again, even after a broken heart.

I'm Tagging...

Yes, it is my fiance's last name and since (this might be TMI) he is a great KISSER i thought since his last name is French and i love his kisses, put it together and Viola! FRENCHKISS
Today Caleb and i will deliberate on who will be the winner of July WIMB! It is so hard ladies because we love what's in your bags. Also the reason why i am not going to use Random.org is because i want to have a reason why i have picked the wimb winner. Not just because of the wall post on your blogs which i have appreaciated so much but most importantly because of how we carry our self. Some bags scream AHHH ive got my house inside and some are WALLET, CELLPHONE... im good to go!

$300 Authentic Louis Vuitton

Girly girls! I have way awesome discoveries that needs to be shared throughout the world! As you all know, ME<- the PURSAHOLIC FREAK, that i am. Is always thinking about how i can save you Kikays some money and me as well. I'm sure a lot of you heard BAG BARROW OR STEAL.? Well duh! Who wouldn't? I mean they were only featured in one of the most if n0t the only most Fabulous Movie ever! Aww C'mon Sex in the City is uber fab! Where else can you see a Prada, Louis, Sex, Love Story, Friendship and Family in one show/movie? DUH! Exactly, i know i was right. :D

Ok so back with BAG BARROW OR STEAL. I personally think they are genious with renting the most fabulous, up to date, to die for things. From purses to glasses and jewelries. But why pay seasonal or weekly for a use item that you will only be borrowing? This is why i cannot be a part of this insanely genious membership. I cannot just borrow! Once ive felt it and used it<- sounds dirrty right? Lol. I just have to have it! IT has to be MINE! No returning it or barrowing it back. But with this economy? Surely spending 1000 plus for a monogram is worth it, but then how are you going to pay for your cell phone bills? or extra money for gas? This is why i would like you to look at the purses below!

Louis Vuitton= $300.00
Authentic




Balenciaga Pink Metalic=$899
Authentic



How is this possible? Well... They are pre owned. Still in Great Condition!!! And for those prices, their all yours. A friend of mine had told me about this one day back in Feb of this year. But i didnt pay much attention to it. Until i was looking for this Coach bag, but i knew that since it was two season ago. I would not be able to find it new. So i searched online and found these amazing site. Although they did not carry it. I was amazed about the prices.

Jillsconsignment and Ann'sfabulousfinds are both pre owned online stores, they only take what they consider items that are still in good condition. I absolutely think these stores are something to think about next time you either thought of borrowing or buying knock offs. Because for a little bit more you can purchase an authentic hand bag or jewelry instead of a fake one and you wouldnt have the pocket with hole effect. Because you can keep it! Ann's Fabulous Finds even let you do layaway! How awesome is that?

I have not tried purchasing anything from these sites yet, but a good friend of mine has. And trust me they are real. Ofcourse they wont look so new but they are in great condition and for a fraction of a new one. Sorry for this post being so long dolls, i kinda got carried away.

Colorful Blob


Hey Kikays

I did this last night, i was actually going for the un even fat circle. Just wanted it to be very imperfect so that my lips would stand out. Just wanted to add different colors. To be fun. To me make up is to have fun with. We shouldnt rely on make up to look good, no one should think make up makes them look good. But instead, make shows our potential.




Fireworks!!!

Hey Kikays(Filipino word for sassy/girly girls)

So i know this is pretty late post for 4th of July pics. I actually wasnt going to post this at all until, i saw them in my email. Took this with the iphone and i just keep forgetting to send it to my email, until recently. I was actually amazed on how good i caputured the fireworks. Some of them looks like a flower. So i thought this would be neat to show you guys. Like a little kid, i actually love fireworks! It makes me happy.<-DORK!










Caleb and i spent it with my family. It was pretty fun! Our first 4th of July together

Stay Short or Grow Long?

Why do i have these hair dilemmas? Ahhh, i so cannot stress this. I have to be above this. I cant afford to have to think about this all the time.


Hey Kikays(Filipino word for sassy or girly girls :D)


So my hair is growing almost out of the A-Line/Bob cut, i have. I'm so torn about keeping it short for a little bit longer or growing it out. I do miss my hair being long. Because i could curl all of it or just the tip, put it up and even just tease my crown and leave it straight. So those are my "PROS," my "CONS" will be: It takes a long time to fix, because my hair is so thick. It gets so hot over summer and also its my head feels heavy. If you know what i mean.


The only thing about me that i dont like is..... How i CANT decide. On everything! It's such a hassle to be with me at dinner because i always don't know what i want. Eventhough i have been at the same restaurant forever. It still not going to change. You see, i love options. And the "IFs" like IF i get this color would it work for just what im wearing or is is versatile that i could use it for more than one occasion? Hmmm, exactly! I have been like this since i was a baby, trust me my mom has a bunch of stories how picky i am. And i do make a big deal out of small things. I tend to be Obssessive Compulsive on some things.


I have always been MAARTE! Ok now i have to explain my maarte-ness. Because i know most people hear maarte and they automatically think, OH SHE'S HIGH MAINTENANCE BECAUSE SHE IS INSECURE. But its actually not that, i do tend to love Expensive things. Its natural, im Pinay. We like Nice things. But my being Maarte is because, i would rather spend money on something that will last me as oppose to buying something that will work now but 3 months later i would need a new one.

So Kikays what do you think? Short or Long?

Joanna and Krystal's bags










Joanna's Scribble Hampton Weekend Tote



2 Wallets. 1 in guess (white, leather one) where i put cash and credit cards. and the other one in Vera Bradley (smaller one, in brown and blue) which is also what I call my "to-go" wallet. If I have run some errands, all I gota do is grab this wallet, put my driver's license, cash and debit card on it, and off I go! :)


3 pens, a post-it, and a notepad. I mentioned before too that as a "fun" fact that I keep at least 2 or 3 pens in my purse and a ketchup packet (which I already used btw for my onion rings today :(. gota, get another one to put on my bag :)) I don't know why but I just do. I need to have a notepad everywhere I go as much as possible. I sometimes would have a thought/idea pop out of nowhere that i need to jot down ASAP as i tend to have a short memory span. I guess this is what being a nursing student does to you... :p

Car Phone Charger, Wipes, Excedrin, Mints, Check book, Lotion. I suffer from bad migraines from time to time : ( so I definitely have to have this with me. I used to have a midol too on my bag, just ran out of it. Lotion is by Bath and Body in Velvet tuberose.. OMG, love the smell. :) I just recently bought the car phone charger; talking on the phone with your bf all day long who is currently living 2,000 miles away from you, you'll understand. :)






Now, my beauty stuff...
Kabuki brush, Beauty Bag, Comb/Mirror compact


What's inside:


Ponytail/Scrunchies, MAC blot powder, MAC Hello Kitty pink fish, Burt's bees, Tampon, Blotting paper, Hand Sanitizer, Elf blush, Contact lens case, Wetting drops, Hello Kitty Band-aid. I love my MAC pink fish. It smells like white chocolate, i feel like eatin it lol! I definitely need to get a new blot powder. I love burt's bees because it has that soothing and cooling sensation once applied to lips. Ponytails definitely a must especially this summer as it gets really hot in mid-day! I really don't have much inside my makeup/beauty bag, just things that I know I would definitely use all the time :)


Krystal's Neverfull


whats inside my bag:


1) my new and old organizer/planner

2) samsung cellphone

3) hairclip

4) wallet

5) peek pronto

6) itouch

7) pens

8) keys

9) true shimmer chapstick

10) mini calculator

11) appointment slips

Movie Crazy


WOW! I was thinking about what movies, i wanted to see that i have not seen this year. I asked my fiance if he could help me remember what movies we saw together. About 99% of the movies i saw was with him. Last night we went and saw Harry Potter. It was ok, i like all the HP movies anyways. Last night felt a little long. It's silly because it is a long movie, but i could actually feel it. If you know what i mean?


The deal about twilight! I know it came out December of 08. But i actually saw it in the Theatre 5 days before it came out. I didnt want to see it with any one who has seen it before because i know i would just be asking questions. But i really, really want to see it. So Caleb told me we had to be somewhere, i asked him but he says YOU WILL JUST HAVE TO SEE IT FOR YOUR SELF. We pulled in at AMC in , went inside and went straight through theatre 14<- i think. I was wondering why no one is coming in. The warning lights of the previous before the movies has just turned off. I was thinking to my self, maybe he didnt tell me what movie we were going to see because IT SUCKS! After all the previous, the movie started. I was so AMAZED it being Twilight. And we were the only ones in the theatre!!! PERIOD. I was thinking why the movie all of a sudden played ONE time, that day 5 days before it came out on DVD. And why in the hell we were the only TWO in there? Hmmmm.... Can you guess?
Ever since Up's commercial came on tv and movie previous i was DEAD set on seeing it! I always qoute it<- talk about DORKINESS! 3 nights before it came out, Caleb. Being the Nicest Fiance anyone could ever had/have. Had gotten US a pass to see it! Although i did not see it then, we did go to the premierish. I loved it! It was the saddest movie ive seen in a while.
Everytime i see the add for this movie, it makes me smile! Im so glad i dont have to go through this with my sister. I saw this with Calebs mom and dad.
Just for fun, im going to List the movies i have seen so far this year:
1. Twilight
2. My Bloody Valentine
3. Monsters vs. Aliens
4. Bride Wars
5. Confession of a shoppaholic
6. Coraline
7. 17 Again
8. He's just not that into you
9. Up
10. Angels and Demonds
11. Star Trek
12. XMen
13. Drag me to Hell
