The Lobby - the place is artsy 

Checking out - Reception

Curtain mode -  the room is oh so bright

Look at the place, hahaha too much trash (Sorry for the not so neat post hahahaha)

The television

My friends were the one responsible for the reservation of this room. They surprised me with my bachelorette mean girls party last December here. It was a wholesome event. Hahaha The room was spacious. We have more space to play random games. It has a receiving arrive with sofas, mini kitchen, bathroom and of course! the bedroom. It is like a condominium with one bedroom that was the set up of our room. The photos provided was after the party (so it is a little untidy). The security of the hotel was strict so if you will have a surprise thingy with this hotel, don't forget to instruct them immediately. Hahaha

The location of the hotel is like a hidden gem in Makati. It took us a little hard to locate it. However, the hotel is surrounded with different restaurants and bars. If you are looking place for place to be drunk and you can't even go home. This a nice place to stay and chill the next day. 

I will rate this hotel with

★★★★☆

4 stars out of 5 stars

Natural color for my face, it blends perfectly on my face

I tried blended it on my hand and wash it with water. It looks like it is waterproof so I feels like sweat proof, less retouch the better. 

During my haul from Sephora, I bought this item because I was looking for a liquid foundation that will really cover up my blemishes. It was Godsend when I saw this on their site. I read some reviews and they gave it some pleasing comments from other beauty bloggers and vloggers. I might have plenty of lipsticks but other beauty products is not my forte, so reading and watching a lot of reviews helps me convince myself that I need this item. Hahaha 

Goblin or Goblin: The Lonely and The Great God is one of the best Kdrama I have ever watched. Ganda nya promise!!! haha It revolves with the story of the Goblin (Gong Yoo) and the Grim Ripper (Lee Dong-Wok). It will explain why the Goblin had his immortal life and why grim ripper received those kind of jobs. Everything has a reasons and it will be explained thru out the series. Then, there is this highschool girl (Kim Go-eum-I as Ji Eum-tak), who falls inlove with the Goblin, she is the also called Goblin's bride by some random ghost. haha She is the only person who can take away the Goblin's immortality. It will be conflict in the later part of the series. Goblin will make a decision to stay alive or to die. I won't tell. Everyone should watch this series!!!  Kwentuhan tayo!

Our wedding cake by Ms. Krystine of Sofia's Sweet

I met Ms. Krystine Reyes thru our wedding coordinator, Bingo Flores. He recommended Sofia’s Sweets. She does not have a physical shop yet. I started communicating with Ms. Krystine via facebook messenger. She was easy to talk to, although she was having a hectic schedule because it is already ber months during that time and she will also be leaving the Philippines for a month, she made time to meet up with us. Actually, to meet up my fiancé back then, he was the one who actually talked to her for the contract signing because I have work during those times. We really trusted our cake to her to the extent did not required to have a cake tasting. Hehe

Simple yet elegant

The reason of being so MIA (missing in action) on my blog because of tv series and Korean novelas. Yes! Totoo po ang balibalita, kinain na po ako ng sistema ng tv series lalo na ang Korean novela. Hahaha Kaloka po! So I will start posting reviews of Korean Novelas again and anime series too.

For today, I will post my review about W. Yes. Tamad na tamad po sila magtitle kaya isang letter lang ang bet nila ipangalan sa Kdrama na ito. LOL. W is about the world of comics vs reality. The main character Lee Jong-suk as Kang Cheol, he is a gold Olympic medalist in shooting that was suspected in killing his own family because of the unknown killer. Then, after 10 or more years, he became rich and wants to know the identity of the killer who killed his family. On the other hand, Han Hyo-joo as Oh Yeon-joo is the daughter of the famous creator of webtoons called W and she is also a doctor.  She will be the love interest of Cheol. First encounter of the two will be the accident on the rooftop that almost killed Kang Cheol but Yeon-joo went inside the webtoons to saved Cheol. The rest of the story should be watched. Haha

 Overall, I will rate this Kdrama 3.5 stars out of 5 stars.

After 10 years in the making, ‘Saving Sally’ hits the theater last Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) 2016. It was something different from Filipino Films. The story started when Sally (Rhian Ramos) and Marty (Enzo Marcos) met at the school and became best of friends. Sally is an inventor, who helped Marty to avenge the Bully. They became inseparable after the incident. Marty is secret inlove with Sally. He drew her and paste in on his wall but he covers it when Sally is around. The story revolves on how Marty is so ‘Torpe’. Hahaha The problem starts when Sally met another guy and her adopted parents were so strict. Imagine the love of Marty for Sally is unconditional. He can sacrifice his feelings just for Sally’s happiness. 

The Verdict: 

Saving Sally was one of the movies I am looking forward to watch. I first read it on Saab Magalona’s blog (Yes! I am an avid fan of her. *fan girling*) I love supporting Filipino movies. This is one unique idea from a brilliant mind. As you all know, this kind of movies especially the animated ones, those are rare in our country. The soundtracks are so superb. The animations and artistic background is so witty if you read and observed every detail. If you love art, this is a moving art as I may say. Moreover, Rhian Ramos is a good actor. She brings emotion to the movie. Unfortunately, I think Enzo Marcos lacks some feelings towards Sally. He sounds neutral most of the time. I prefer they used Tagalog as the language of the movie. I think it would be wittier if they used our language. The storyline was ordinary. The usual love story, it is predictable. However, the effort they gave to this movie was excellent. Kudos to everyone part of the movie. 

 I will rate this movie with

Invitations are important. It has all the details of the ceremony and the reception. My wedding coordinator suggested to give the invitations a month before so people will have more time to prepare and take a time to file a leave just in case it is a work day for the attendees.

When I was looking for a product that would help my face to be less dry and more hydrated, I saw this product in Sephora.ph and immediately bought it without hesitation. I was really excited to use it. After few weeks of using it, I can say it made my face soft and hydrated because of coconut extract. It smells good. It does not irritate my nose. Some products really bedazzled me with smell that can make me sneeze in a whole new level. But this one is simple yet powerful effect. Every time I am applying this to my face, it has a menthol feeling that I really love. I am a sucker for menthol products. My face feels clean and clear from all the dirt. For the price, it is worth 615php. It is expensive for a facial wash but it is good to invest for our face to avoid irritants and wrinkles. Always look for the best products, especially for our face. Let us avoid botox and facelift in the future.hahaha Invest now. 😉

I will rate this product as 4.8 stars

Ace water spa is a place to relax in the city. They have two branches: Quezon City and Pasig City. The one we visited was in Pasig City because it is the nearest for the down south peepz like us. Shout out to all the South peepz! Hahaha Anyways, we visited the place during my birthday (last May 2016 and yes this post is a backlog, stayed in my drafts for a few months). Thank you, Momma! Treat nya kami. Hihi 

We stayed for a night and it was a good choice than going home after a 4 hour water spa. We were really tired because I and my sister swam in their Olympic size pool. We were trying to practice our skills in the water.

Ta-da! My mom requested for additional mattress with free breakfast and they gave us 200php off for the 3rd guest for the water spa. It cost around 1600php ++ for the breakfast and mattress

Inside the room, it was a television, office table, a cabinet, safe and many more. 

The bathroom. However, no bathtub included for our room. 

The buffet.

I am really grateful for our overnight stay and with our 4 hour water spa session. It was one of the best interactive spa I ever visited. Almost all of the facilities in the spa area was one button away. I enjoyed pressing every single of it, trying the water massage. Inside the spa, no taking of photos, no slippers (use only the provided by Ace Water Spa), wear the correct swimwear and locker will be provided. My fave part of the water spa will be the hot herbal pool where you can deep your body and feel the heat of the water. relaxingggg It has 4 different temperature and aroma such as Jasmine, Lavander, Mint and Volcano something. lol Then, deep yourself to the cold water after soaking to the herbal pool. So don't hurry yourselves, you will be shock for sure. haha lamig bhe!

They also have sauna room, Olympic size swimming pool and many kinds of pool inside the spa area. I and my sister tried everything inside the spa. They are also really strict with the rules and regulations. I suggest to be obedient. They have people watching over everyone. They also have a rental service, just in case you don't have a rashguard, cycling shorts or maybe trunks hahaha I prefer buy your own, there are shops near the establishment.

For the breakfast buffet, it was good. They have many varieties of food to choose from. I ate a lot too. hahaha Cheat month, birthday month. lolz. Overall, I am satisfied. Will I visit them again? Yes, I will!

I will rate them as 4.8 stars

Here is the front of the building. From afar, we can see the face of Hello Kitty. It is hypnotizing us. hahaha The kiddos in our tourist bus were so excited too.

This is the map of Hello Kitty Island. It has three floors of cuteness and everything Hello Kitty.

This is the Cafe. Unfortunately, we do not have enough time to dine and unwind. huhu

Before exiting, the required place to visit and buy some souvenirs. 

I bought myself a cellphone case and stuffs for my cousins.

The place is so cute. It is really for Hello Kitty fans but if you are not a fan. You can skip this place. There are more interesting place in Jeju Island too. Especially, if you are a guy, only your girlfriend  or sister will have fun and will enjoy posing here and there. The only part I did not enjoy was the rooftop. The facilities on the rooftop such as the signage was ruined and not maintained properly. However, I am glad with my few hours of roaming around the area. It was educating and artsy. You will realize hype of this character was astonishing. It reached around the world and every decade will always be a successful one. With Sanrio characters, it feels like I am a kid again. In addition, I suggest to add more interactive activities inside the area.

If I will rate this place? I will give it a 4 stars out of 5 stars.
