v day with hubby v!

the flowers are from v and he gave it last v day! hehehe! actually this is a yearly tradition for he always gives flowers on valentine's day or my birthday! what was different this year was that instead of having it delivered to the office, he bought it and brought it to church for all the peeps at COP to see! hahaha... v bought this in dangwa where he said a lot of guys were buying assorted flowers and it looked like divisoria last feb 14. my being sale-a-holic has bitten v already! usually he would just buy flowers from a friend who has this business delivering flowers but this year instead he thought of buying the roses himself. he tried to buy from the boutiques at taft ave but found out it was freaking expensivo! like 1500+++ for just a dozen roses! so what he did was he went to dangwa and viola! flowers that are cheaper (well not really cheaper coz everyone was trying to do business on v day) than what he initially saw! funny story was pastora r and the interns happened to pass by dangwa and saw him and teased him when he bought the flowers. kaya pala when i went there during the service, someone asked me "o where's your bouquet?" hahaha na pre-empt na agad!

i love what v did ... when we have to tighten our belts (coz i am still not earning my regular salary and because of the "recession") but still he remembered buying me these roses! i don't need flowers from "signature" brands in malls! they only get those in dangwa! and besides what will you do with it after spending like thousands of pesos for something you can buy cheap naman di ba? madiskarte talaga si hubby! hahaha and yeah we ate at inasal but not just the 2 of us but with the "friendships" as well! hehehe memorable talaga for us coz something happened that night that can't be posted here.

digital perming at tony and jackey

nothing to do so guess what i tried?! hahaha digital perming at tony and jackey!

what's the difference with this type of perming ? well they use rods to have your hairs curled and they use heat for it unlike the "cold wave" version. also you won't go kinky kasi nga it's hot that's why they don't let the rods touch your scalp or else..actually it was hubby's idea to have a haircut at this salon. he says he wants to have a "koreanovela" hair! but since his hair is still short, we decided to try it out. i got tired of having straight hair (again!) so i decided to have it permed! i availed of the promo that includes digital perming, hair cut, hair manicure and hair spa! it's as if i had my hair rebonded (with the price and long hours) and yes they used l'oreal for my hair because it has been treated na before. i liked their service except for the pinay assistants who keep on hovering like vultures when the korean guy was fixing my hair. at first they thought that my hair won't curl talaga coz i've had it straightened and then curled and then straightened again but viola! after 4 hours it did curl! and to maintain it i use sunsilk curls and waves shampoo and conditioner and vo5 curl booster as well (which by the way is being used by hubby as well to tame his "alanganing" hair).

the verdict: i'm love love loving my curls! at first it was hard to maintain but after a few weeks i've gotten the hang of it... like how much mousse to apply, when to have it conditioned, etcetera... i can't wait to have it long na nga eh. i guess i'll stick to having it permed forever (well forever for me means 6 months hahaha)

the loot that took forever!

L to R : Copper Brown, Scylla, Gaea, Gaea, Earth Angel, Hot Fudge, Thalia , Baby Pink, Frosted Flakes, Champagne

i ordered this loot last august, supposedly to be with my tita when she came home from canada. but for some reason when she left on sunday, the package arrived the following monday. so what my cuz did was to have it shipped na lang. supposedly, it would arrive last october, in time for my wedding anniversary and birthday and obviously it didn't. she sent it through the las pinas post office and when i tried to google the said post office gosh a lot of negative comments were given to them coz of the packages being lost or they are overcharging people claiming their packages. i just thought oh well just let my moolah go kapoot! until cuz o texted me and told me that the package arrived! yipee i was so giddy! even if i had a prior engagement to go to laguna for our get together, i asked hubby if we could drop by las pinas to get the package and we sure did! i was so happy! i told myself i m gonna sell these lippies but i changed my mind... well i gave mom the 1 hehehe other than that i'm keeping these babies all by myself. i should've bought more of the black label one! wow it glides so well and stays on your lips for quite a while. sobrang sulit for it's price! the nyx lippies i think are $2.00 each while the gold label is for like $6.00 or $7.00 you can check at cherryculture.com. nga pala, the reason i had it shipped to canada:

1. free shipping for purchases $50 and above

2. they don't ship to the philippines! aaaargggh! i also wish we have sephora here (but there's already one in singapore so i'm planning to go there!) wooohhoooh!

anyways, am enjoying all of them right now. i just wish i could find a lippie organizer like the one vanessa has.lol!

c team reunion and bonding at coffee bean rob place ermita

this was a surprising saturday for us! right after the service guess who we saw at cop? reg! our former c team soloist and my partner when we do duets! grabe talaga...and he was with his wife which also came as another surprise. so as usual chika to the max na naman kami. and then kuya/ptr jig arrived! hala! impromptu ito hehehe. so to make the "gathering" memorable we went to robinson's place ermita and had our fellowship. too bad we weren't able to take some pix with us, not until after na lang when we decided to go to coffee bean and have some "friendship" talk. ay naku ang mga love life talaga! good thing hubby and i are already past that stage, ibang level na ngayon hahaha! so as awkward as it may seem the young peeps are giving advice to the ate of the group! actually dapat girl talk lang ito, kaya lang si hubby excess baggage! hahaha tsaka walang photographer e so sinama na namin! as usual our topic is about "toot toot" at si "toot" hehehe! hay, although we miss greg and shari ok naman yung convo dito with the guy's point of view and the kikay girls so... and yeah i haven't had enough sleep here and i still need to go to my cuz' place tmw to pick up my loot and go to laguna afterwards for the bear clan get together. so medyo pagod na ang lola mo here. in fairness the make-up is still intact (take note no retouch yan ha!)
