Let's Get Sparkly

Stutter

I've been listening to Maroon 5(again) hence the title post. I will forever love lace! See that cute necklace right there? Isn't it cute?! Plus, it's thrift-ed! Hee! These were taken a few days ago. I dyed my hair black last night and I like it! I know I'm going to miss my light-colored hair but it's just so hard to maintain(for me, at least). Alright, that was a lot of rambling...back to studying. *facepalm*

Ulta's Grand Opening

Finally!!!

Ulta finally decided to put up a branch here in my city. So, after my clinical day last Friday, I hurriedly changed clothes and drove there. I didn't need anything necessary, except for foundation(powder). I was just looking around and voila, I saw Palladio stuff on one of the displays! I love their foundation, so cheap yet it works really well. I used to get it 2hours or so from where I live so I'm just happy they have it here now!

The four items on top are freebies. They give it to you when you become a member which is also free! I got four things, NYX L/S in Eros, Prestige Brow Corrector, NYX Eyeliner, and my ever fave Palladio Herbal Foundation. Hee! I'm so excited to try these products!

My current fave shampoo and conditioner :)

I also volunteered at a Health Fair to give flu shots, take blood pressure, and blood sugar. Here's a group picture.

Another Usual Saturday

I usually go to church on Saturdays. After church, we went to CPK for dinner then headed to Yogurtland for dessert. 

Okay. Now back to studying for my Med-Surg Nursing exam...

Summer Part 4: Indonesia

Finally! My last summer post!

I had 3 months of summer vacation and I spent most of it in Indonesia. My family moved from US to Indonesia a couple of months ago so right after my last final, I was off to the airport. It was a long ass flight(just like US-Philippines). One thing I hate about long flights is having stopovers because that means you'd have to wait more. I didn't realize how much I missed my family until I saw them face to face.

Airplane food eeek.

Landing!!!

The line at the Immigration was so long! I think I was there for about 40 minutes. It's because a lot of flights came to the airport all at the same time. And then, I saw my parents! Oh joyyyy. We headed home to freshen up and then we immediately went out to grab some late lunch. Where else would we be? Fish & Co.! I'm really sad they don't have any branch in US.

Sharkie Freeze!

Indonesia is a lot like Philippines! It is very humid but it's cooler there because they have a lot of trees even in the city. Traffic there is worse than the Philippines though. There's a lot of motorcyclists too! We went to a lot of places when I was there although we didn't get to go to Bali and Yogyakarta due to our tight schedule. Maybe next time? :)

Let me show you more of Jakarta with these lovely pictures.

Back to the Grind

Fall semester has officially started for me. Hello to my second year of nursing school! This was a bittersweet day for me because I didn't want my summer to end but at the same time, I only have 9 more months until I graduate! *keeping my fingers crossed* First day, we already had homework and online stuff to do. Oh joy.

Wish me luck!


P.S. Hype this look @ LookBook.

See that bruise?

What I wore sometime last week. It was really hot that day(that explains the title)! These shoes are one of my faves 'cos it's so comfortable.

Summer Part 2: Hong Kong

We(me and my family) visited Hong Kong for the first time! It was a really quick trip because we only stayed there for 3 days. We arrived at about 4 in the afternoon and went straight to the hotel to unpack and whatnot. We then walked around the city to look for a place to eat. And because we were too tired, we just went back to the hotel and got some rest.

The next day, my Dad signed us up for a city tour. I wasn't really feeling it since HK was having a gloomy weather but as I got to see more of HK, I got a little excited! Here are some pictures from the tour.

Told you it was gloomy!

My Mom and Dad

It was kind of hard to take pictures since it was raining. Mehhh. We also went to Temple Street Night Market that night. Then the next day, right when we were about to leave, the sun showed up! We walked around to do more damage to our pockets. I was able to try different milk tea(my fave) places too!

Bargaining

It was fun but I wished we stayed longer. There was a lot of cheap finds and cutesy stuff. I will come back, Hong Kong!
