Happy Father's Day to my Dad and to all Dads Out There!

** Photo of my dad, getting ready on my wedding day!
He looks so happy for me...

Posting for father's day made me realized one thing...
I don't have a whole lot of solo shots of my dad...
He's not into picture taking that's why!
My dad is 12 years older than my mom...
But his heart is young, very kind, and very understanding..
A quiet man...very smart and yet, he always let me do my own decisions..
Never scolded me... (either I'm a super daughter or he's a super dad...i believe in the latter lol)
Dad, though our age gap is too huge...
you always give me the time of the day..
you worked so hard for me to get into a good school..for me to be where I am.
Thanks so much!

Happy Father's Day dad...I may not say this often ...
But I do love and appreciate you...

The Haul that I've been Waiting For....

My friend Jals from high school knew about my love for make-up as a profession.
She knows I needed a lot of make-up (good quality at its affordable price)
She offered to go to ULTA to help me buy some stuffs I would love...
Her mom arrived and I got these!!!!
Too bad not much Milani eyeshadows are available that time, she had to go to Walgreens for that.
She bought me a couple of Ulta eyeshadows, it's way bigger than Milani and the pigmentation is as good!!!
L'oreal HIP, come to mama....

Here's my lovely loot! 4 Ulta eyeshadows, 2 L'oreal Hip eyeshadow duo 1 L'oreal Hip Cream, 2 Milani Eyeshadows

At a closer look 1. Deep Sea 2. Aquamarine 3. Lilac Mist 4. Luna

My lovely Milani!!! (I really wish they have more colors)

the 2 L'oreal Hip e/s duo. I chose the shades that I don't have

I've read a lot of this in comparison to MAC

I know I know,
SWATCHES right? LOL
Coming up soon!!!
Just smile and wait!.....patiently! lol

Weekend Food Tripping at: DURI

Duri is a lovely Korean Restaurant located at the first floor of the Robinson's Galleria Mall. My husband and I last ate here when we were bf and gf then! What we love about this restaurant is their affordability and their quality of food. I wouldn't say it's the BEST Korean restaurant, but if you're in a mall, and you're craving for good, "non fastfood" Korean dish? This is a lovely place to be!!!

Just take a look how nice the ambience is...for most of the times we ate here, there's not a whole lot of customers, I guess one reason is because they are closely located to those great Filipino, Italian and Mexican restaurant and not a lot of people would even take a second look at this restaurant as you would think the dishes here are expensive! SO NOT TRUE!

Let's start with how it looks like....

What I love here is their decors, I love how their cooking area is elevated, the food staffs are all great and food are served quite fast...well..considering we're the only customer at that time...in their defense, 30 minutes after we sat down, a couple of customers are coming in.

My hubby's favorite, the BENTO Box,
(sorry I can't remember the name and I lost the receipt!)
this cost Php180.00 (approx $4.00)

This is my order, the Seafood Ramen
Cost Php130.00 (approx $3.00)
To be honest, their noodles is like from a pack of instant noodle, texture wise, but I'm not fretting at all because the noodles is packed with shrimps, squid and some other seafood I don't know...LOL Yummoooo!!!

And their Kimchee.....the right kind of kimchee taste, not too strong and not too salty, JUST RIGHT!!!! For the first time in a Korean restaurant, I finished this free Kimchee serving!

May I also add that their house tea tastes great as well! We had our full meal for less than Php500 (Less than $11.00). Who said dining has to be expensive???

I still have my best Korean Restaurant in my taste in mind.... But it's located quite far... When I have the chance to go back there, you'll see it here for sure! How's everyone? Had any tasty dish lately?

A Pretty Bag

My bestfriend, Hennie, who is my bestfriend since high school....
(you can see her photo by smiling and say HENNIE!)
who was also my maid-of-honor on my wedding day...
Celebrates her birthday...
She has everything! Trust me...
And it's really difficult to buy a gift for someone who just have everything...
I can't give her cosmetics, as she bought 'em all for her make-up class...
I can't buy her clothes, as she's got her closet full of clothes,
I can't buy her shoes, as it is very difficult to choose a perfect size for shoes...
So what a girl to do?
Buy 'em bag!
A girl can't have too many bags right? LOL

Here's the "bag" gift for my bestfriend, I do hope she likes it...as much as I do...if she doesn't, I can always adopt this! LOL (joke)

How much right? Well....ff course...I am not posting the price here as she could read my post and she'll know how much this cost! LOL If interested, you can ask and I can PM you the price LOL

This bag is available at the Shangri-la mall. Spacious, lovely and affordable! LOL

This is a short post...I'll be off putting on make-up to other people today! Wish me luck!!!!

Have a great weekend again everyone!
I had a greatSaturday!
Got some Milani, Ulta and L'oreal Hip cosmetics from a friend who came back from the States! Will post them all soon!
Don't forget to smile!
