April 25, 2012. CANCELLED FLIGHT?!

Pictures are to follow.

I rarely do put out "titles" other than dates but, seriously?

Getting delayed is fine with me, and getting a cancelled flight on the way home is so-and-so. But, getting a cancelled flight TO a place, said place being Palawan. I am dumbstruck.

When we were in the airport and had been waiting for three hours (12 PM), I jokingly said that we'd be cancelled. The intercom said we'd departure by 1 PM. Apparently, around eighteen passengers for our flight were told to go home since the plane that came was a lot smaller. Long story short, they had overbooked the plane. On the other hand, these people received a round trip tour, with accommodations valid for the next six months (I assume it's for domestic flights only). That was around 3/4 PM.

The other fifty-seven passengers, however, were told that our flight was simply delayed and we'd be leaving in a few minutes. Around 5 PM, we were told that our flight was boarding. After waiting for an awfully long seven hours in the airport, suffering boredom, we were finally boarding. We got into the airport shuttle and when we got to the plane, the man entered to tell us that our flight was officially... CANCELLED.


What the FUUUUU?

AirPhilippines had to do a lot of explaining to the passengers because the flight after us got in just fine. Now, what were we gonna do? They got us free accommodations at this place called the Executive Palace which is a pretty normal hotel. Nothing amazing really, it's just that there's just another problem...

Our luggage was already in Coron, Busuanga.

Again, What. The. FUUUU?!

So, instead of buying new clothes at Robinsons Manila, we had a good dinner at the restaurant right in front of it called, Cifu. After having a really good and satisfying dinner, we went back to the hotel took out our carry ons and boarded a taxi home.

Now, I'm here at home finally getting to watch Glee.

Seriously though... How unlucky could one person get?

April 22, 23 and 24, 2012

For the past few days I've been feeling very lazy, and so a post is just up for today.

Tomorrow, I should be updating a lot more frequently because of our trip to Palawan. The Coron part of the island instead of the Puerto Princesa since we've already gone there.

I just found the time to post at a bad time since I have to wake up tomorrow morning a bit earlier (around 6am). But nevertheless, I have to get to packing, which is the worst part of travelling... next to unpacking, I guess.

But for the past few days, I've been loving this "packing business" because I settled on a theme for our Palawan Summer Outing. Taking inspiration from Katy Perry's colorful candy-like outfits, I've taken some advice to get on with the bright and fun colors.

I've got a few colors packed but I doubt that I'll ever compare to Ms. Katy Perry.

Other than having the quest of packing up for yet another adventure, I also had to enroll my classes for the next term. I thank God that I got the classes that I wanted, without Him I probably wouldn't have gotten such a good sched.

I should be heading out now to get some sleep. 'Til tomorrow.

PS: Aqua shoes are a must.

April 19, 20 and 21, 2012

Hello everyone, I'm not gonna be gone for long again.

But, having two birthdays in two consecutive days just proves that there really isn't much time to put all the celebrating and blogging at the same time. Plus, I'm still trying to understand the new layout of Blogger. It's a whole lot more tech-y and it's not so easy for me to keep myself up to speed with it.

So, for the past two days who's birthdays were celebrated. One was with my tita who has a number of dogs. The other was our neighborhood friend that we treat like a cousin. With all the eating and family gathering, I felt really lazy when I finally saw my bed.

For my tita's birthday, they served a lot of food and though I love eating a bunch. I was most distracted with their dogs. They've got four in that house and the other two are vacationing with us. They've got a Golden Retriever, a Labrador, a Siberian Husky and three Pomeranians (the two of which are with us).

~Shy Husky won't look!~

~Tommy the Pomeranian, the oldest dog of them all.~

For my friend's birthday, we had the celebration here at home and got to swimming to beat the heat. Also, we had some spaghetti, barbecue and a birthday pizza. The night was ended with a horror movie as it always end when they're over. I finally got to watch 4bia, I am aware that it's a pretty old movie but I found it really creepy. Because... the movie breaks through the fourth wall (in other terms, looking/talking to the audience).

And today, my younger tita who's as young as I am, but still older than me by three months, has her friends over and they're having some fun in the pool. I, on the other hand, feel really lazy and have been playing with my newly downloaded, Virtual Families.

Continuing on with life,

yeah, life's much more interesting nowadays...

April 18, 2012

It's been over a month and I am back in the blogging world.

I've seriously missed this since I've been busy with school. And when I say busy, I had been horribly busy. Whoever said that accounting was gonna be easy well, let me just kick their ass!

I know I said that I was going to post about our plant visit to Pepsi and the Philippine Daily Inquirer. But... I went back through it in my mind, it was pretty boring. The highlight of my trip was actually going to Alabang Town Center with my college friends, and we ordered Hapadog. But, right after my last exam, I had fun bowling with my friends, I could just find one "normal" picture from my friend's Facebook.

~how do you hold a bowling ball again?~

I was supposed to post yesterday but I had done a half a day of shopping, my head was pounding and got sidetracked with watching my new fave series, Jane By Design. Honestly, it's not the most amazing series ever but I'm so caught up with it because it's something I began.

Now, I decided that I'd begin again today because I've done some shopping for the summer and the next term. Call it a mini shopping spree or whatever. I am in no way a fashion blogger so yes, my clothes and make up choice, may not be up to the latest style or whatever. LOL.

~Aqua Tinted BB Cream and Powder Brush from The Face Shop~

Seriously, I've heard so much talk about BB creams in Youtube make-up videos, commercials and from my Facebook that I thought I'd try out one. This was recently shown in Bubzbeauty's Korean Haul and when I saw it at The Face Shop, I took one up without second guessing myself. I do trust Bubz's advice since so far most have gone real good for me.

~ Blue with Ribbon Ballet Flats from Payless, Lower East Side~

Before this shopping spree, I've own just one pair of ballet flats and about atleast three pairs of sneakers. Thinking that I'd need a good pair of flats for business presentations and such for school, I bought an affordable yet amazingly cute pair from Payless. I shop there so much that I'm used to trying way too much then buying just a pair.

~Blue 19 Jersey Shirt and Neon Mint Polo from Just G~

~Same Neon Mint Polo from Just G and a White Undershirt from Kisses & Co.~

Truly, I am a big fan of Just G. If I didn't go there first, I probably would've purchased more than I need then I'd come back home thinking I've bought way too much. But if I could, I would've bought out their dresses, it's just that right now I'm planning on buying something else from a store somewhere.

My mother brought back these two patterns for me 'cause she noticed that I've been wearing dresses more. And since, it's blazing hot here in the Philippines, dresses are more comfy to wear and so, I'm having these two patterns turned into my two fave dresses. I'm not exactly where they are from but they seem really interesting. I love small patterns since they're not so "in-your-face"; their subtlety is really "dainty", I guess.

~Candy Pink Short from Lee~

Ah, I just love candy colored shorts. I don't know if they still count as denim but it's the same texture. It's summertime here and I feel like the color is so "Katy Perry" that I loved this color most than the other available colors. Then, I went thinking, oh God, what to wear with this? Then, apparently a lot of dark colors look good and for a more "fun" feel, I might pair it with the Neon Polo from Just G.

~Tea Tree Oil and Tea Tree Toner from The Body Shop~

Because of stressing out from the past months, I've broken out so much that I feel like I'll never get back to having a smooth face. Good thing that my mother brought me in with her to The Body Shop. The lady saw that I needed these so that I could go back to the milky smooth skin and maintain it with the toner. The little one is an oil that helps to dry up a pimple in 48 hours (according to the lady). Both are applied twice a day, in the morning and at night.

I bought these yesterday, and from the overnight use. My face have gotten so much better. This is an absolute must try if you want to get and maintain a smooth and less breakout-prone face.

~Colorful Wooden Beaded Rosary from Guadalupe~

People who have known me for long know that I own a colorful beaded bracelet from our parish priest. But, wearing it everyday made it very delicate and instead of breaking it totally, I bought one from Guadalupe. It's got a lot more color than the older one but nonetheless, it looks really cute and appropriate for me.

AAAANNNDD, CUT!

I've truly missed blogging and I want to say so much about how bad I feel for not passing all of my majors even though I sacrificed blogging. But, I thought I'd begin with this happy tune. This summer, I plan to share more hobbies with all of you so that we do not get bored this summer.

Blogger, I missed you!

i'm attending a party tomorrow, so excited to see our dogs!
