START OF MY SUMMER DREAM

PICO DE LORO BEACH AND COUNTRY CLUB DAY 1


This summer getaway is really uplanned. One night as we're celebrating our boss's birthday at the Korean Restaurant 3 days before. He abruptly told us that we're going to a beach country club at Nasugbu Batangas. Days went fast and my dream summer for a long time had begun.. We have no loads of work at this time that is why I can repay my 2 summers that I have missed for the past 2 years..

Good Day Pretties!  
I want to share to you that I received A sunshine award not just one but two Sunshine awards! They’re from my blog buddies Donna and Christine. And if being a late post blogger, I plead guilty!

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE

by Pamela Redmond Satran

“A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
enough money within her control to move out

and rent a place of her own even if she never wants

to or needs to...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her
dreams wants to see her in an hour...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a youth she's content to leave behind....
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to
retelling it in her old age....
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .....
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black
lace bra...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who
lets her cry...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone
else in her family...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a
recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
a feeling of control over her destiny...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to fall in love without losing herself..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
HOW TO QUIT A JOB,
BREAK UP WITH A LOVER,
AND CONFRONT A FRIEND WITHOUT RUINING THE FRIENDSHIP...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
when to try harder... and WHEN TO WALK AWAY...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that she can't change the length of her calves,
the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that her childhood may not have been perfect...but it's over...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
whom she can trust,
whom she can't,
and why she shouldn't
take it personally...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
where to go...
be it to her best friend's kitchen table...
or a charming inn in the woods...
when her soul needs soothing...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she can and can't accomplish in a day...
a month...and a year...”



Even though I don't reckon I am a woman enough still this is one of my favorite quotes about woman. I discovered this from Rea Alducente of Reality Bytes last year i keep it for awhile and plan to post this on woman's month, so here it is. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I do.

Happy Women's Month to all!!



Greetings from me and my mom.  <3

MY HAIR'S FINAL CUT


For about 2 years I used to pry on my hair and because of curiousness I am pushy with the hair thing that is supposed to be done “only” by professionals. Well, I was too hard headed to do my own hair including hair coloring, cellophane-ing, bleaching. What that hasn't been done is re-bonding my own hair and perming it.
