Jan.13,2016:my visa to London got APPROVED!!! :D

Feb.02: The journey to London begins!

first stop:Abu Dhabi,UAE
This is by far, the longest plane trip I've ever had---18hrs!And I never thought that being inside in a plane for that long was quite boring.Eat-sleep-watch-repeat.We rode through Etihad Airways which was really good but then I got tired eating their food as they serve halal diet (no pork but chicken and vegetables only).I can still remember what they served before---chicken curry bread,herb penne pasta,chicken biryani..well what a taste of the middle east!Being in Abu Dhabi for an hour and a half was interesting.Their souvenir shops sell stuffed camels,hookah,and golden lamps which are really cool!Too bad I didn't get to see the actual desert.Yet,I get to buy an exclusive Pandora charm there which only costs P700 if converted to Philippine peso.Now that's golden! :D So after 8hrs from UAE,we've finally reached the United Kingdom!!❤️

Japan Tales: Fukuoka (part 2)

June 2: Temple Run at Dazaifu + Drink night with the cousinsThis was our only day tour for the whole trip: to go to the temple of Dazaifu.

Japan Tales : Fukuoka (part 1)

This post has been very delayed for I've been soo busy over the past few weeks! Having a 16hr-duty once a week or a 4-days work was such a burden.But anyhow, this is gonna be a 3-part entry as I had my very first touchdown in Japan 2 months ago! :)

June 1:Hello Fukuoka!
Me and my mom had a 4-day vacay at Fukuoka where one of my relatives live. We stayed at Grand Hyatt hotel which is beside Canal City, one of the popular malls in town.The view from the hotel was quite lovely as the mall's buildings are very colorful. I bet you can't tour the whole mall for just one day! We just skimmed through the shops for now and took pictures (the tourist way! Hahaha).

welcome drinks from ze hotel! Haha isn't it so complete? ;D




There's actually a couple of photobooth stalls at the mall wherein it works like the Camera360 app. They call it "porikula" and it costs ¥400 per shot. How I wish we have this in Manila! This is so much fun to do with friends ;D The picture can also be sent on your e-mail via their website.

So we tried this particular booth since this is endorsed by my cousin,Elaiza Ikeda (the girl with the yellow bow) Then ta-dah!here's what we've got:


Then by night, we took a walk around Tenjin Central Park and had ramen for dinner-–yes,authentic ramen!! The service reminded me of Ramen Nagi; but of course,this one's a lot better! From eating in a ramen bar to having free servings of soup,it was all worth it costing ¥750.


I like how savvy it was to order through an automated machine.While,this is how the bar looked like..




the lovely night lights in Fukuoka.❤️
Then after that, we went to Don Quixote to buy make-ups and Japanese delicacies. This is where I started to appreciate the green tea kitkat. It was so delicious that I have to buy more than 4packs for home! :)) While for the cosmetics, i bought a lipstick from Chifure and a blush on. I also bought a pack of nail stickers which I'll be using on my next trip soon. ;)
to be continued..

Prismatic World Tour Manila!!

ahh yesss!touchdown Philippine Arena! And it was just a 45-minute shuttle ride from Trinoma.The area was certainly huge as it was filled with several booths of Katy Perry merchandise (which I will discuss later) and food stalls.

"we just wanna make the world daaance!" Jessie J LIVE in Manila

I went to Jessie J's concert at the SMART Araneta Colliseum last July 14 and it was a blast! I did not expect that she would throw up a disco-kind of concert!! :) Her first set would definitely make you stand up even if you're not at the patron to dance near the stage.Haha. I only know the songs that she released but after the concert, I had a lot of new favorites from her. I currently like "Sexy Lady" and "Calling All Hearts" which are part of the first set. Plus,I also started to like "Who You Are" because of the meaningful lyrics of it(I did not even know that it's her song!Haha!).I adore the chorus so much ❤️ it goes: "Don't lose who you are in a blur of the stars.seeing is deceiving,dreaming is believing,it's okay not to be okay.Sometimes it's hard to follow your heart.But tears won't mean you're losing,everybody's bruising,just be true to who you are" ;") I wished I could have taken a video of that performance.However, I have a few clips from the concert (pardon me for the poor and shaky quality).Some of the videos also were taken through my phone so it was really blurry;but I just really have to upload it.

#helloSINGAPORE! (part 1): Shopping&Sightseeing

I may not be hitting the beach this summer vacay,but I went out-of-country!Last Friday(040513),me and my family went to Singapore for a couple of days.It was all our first time and wow, I didn't expect it to be so much fun. From mixed raced fusions to the tidiest roads (not to mention that they are really strict.As in 'no littering','no spitting' and 'no chewing gum' or else, there's a fine.)--Everything seems to be in peace & order!Pretty much, this has been the safest country I've ever visited so far ♥
