Hello, girls! Last night I was talking to Iya, aka Pastelbluejacket (Her blog is currently deactivated but I hope she returns to blogging soon), telling her I wanted to make another dessert. I wanted to bake Banoffee Pie and Blueberry Cheesecake again but it was time consuming. At the same time ingredients were quite expensive especially the Blueberry toppings! So she suggested that I make Fried Oreos! I was familiar to this dessert because Flaming Wings @ Katipunan serves this. She told me it was easy and simple. She was right!
Today I decided to make my own version of Wicked Oreos.... with COCO TWIST!
I'm planning to post the recipe soon! This was my first time to cook Fried Oreos so it was quite an experiment. And the cost of ingredients was less than P250 (BTW that will serve more than three Oreos). ^-^ You can also put Vanilla Ice Cream with Chocolate Syrup on top! Yum! I'm gonna do that later for Nani's Mom! Happy Birthday to Tita!

I just want to announce a few things to update you on what's going on my blog.
First, I just want to let you know that I've recently renovated this blog and there were a lot of changes made. I hope the new layout would help you navigate my website better. I'm not a web layout designer or anything but I want to try to improve the physical appearance of my blog. I also wanted the blog content to consume to entire width space so I placed all the other links or the used-to-be-sidebars below. I hope you don't mind! I've also placed some cool tabs like the "Inspiration Block", "Shopping List" and, of course, "Giveaways". I hope you find some of the information useful.
Second, I am giving you a heads up that I'll be having a giveaway this August. I don't want to put a lot information about it here cause that would defeat the purpose of having a "Giveaways" tab, right? So head on to my giveaway page for more information. By the way, kindly answer the poll survey so that it would help me decide what other items to include in my giveaway.
Finally, I also want to share with you my newly created Facebook Page. I just realized that I can update you more if I put up my own Facebook Page. And at the same time, if you are not a blogger user but you have a Facebook account, you can simply like my page and be updated with my latest post. You'll be notified via Facebook whenever I upload or post anything through my Blogger or Tumblr. I hope you guys support it. I was thinking of inviting people to like it for joining my giveaway but I just don't like the idea of people liking it merely for the chance of winning the giveaway. I want you to like it because you like what I do and post. I want people to like my page also as a manifestation of camaraderie. We are, after all, sisters in the realm of blogging. So please support my Facebook Page. :) Thank you!
BTW, This was made by a close friend of mine who is also a blogger! She made this for me. <3

Just wanna share with you, guys and girls, a youtube video of our dance performance last Christmas. I miss my colleagues in my previous work. We're not pro dancers (I think three in the group were really dancers and they're great!) but we really practiced hard! We earned second place which is not really bad. :P I enjoyed dancing! hehehe!
Our dance group was called the HARD STOP CREW from the term hard stop securities! We're a bunch of US Licensed Stock Brokers! And I must say, being a broker over the phone isn't an easy job. We talk to traders, professional or non professional, so we've got a really big responsibility in handling the problems of the company's clients especially when we're talking about stocks. -_- I kinda miss work... :( especially the team I was part of. I miss them.
yung part ng girls @ 2:15.. bongga entrance namin. LOL
I messed up in the latter part. O_O hihihihi *hides*
There are five things I want my hair to achieve this year.
1. Black Hair. Yup! No plans of dyeing my hair this year.
2. Manageable Curliness... I'll ask the stylist to make my hair look thinner so somehow the curls will stand out. ( I think what she does is to cut my hair in layers. :P)
3. Shiny Hair
4. Long Hair! I wanna have a super long hair.
5. Full Bangs.
For now... this is how my hair looks like.
Random Sharing :)
I was really sad on how my hair turned out last Sunday during our Alumni Homecoming. I went to a salon just near our house to have my hair straightened (iron lang... no plans to have my hair rebonded :P). And since I don't want my hair to look flat, I told the stylist not to make it super straight because I want my hair to have volume. Unfortunately, because of the humid weather in the Philippines, my hair became wavy and frizzy just after an hour or two. :(
MAJOR HAIR DISASTER
:( An Absolute Hair Disaster. O_O
This is what I was really aiming for.
Photo Taken during the Christmas Party at my previous work
*sighs* Lesson Learned... I'll ask the stylist to iron my hair super straight. Teehee!
Yesterday we celebrated SSAM @ 50! I have a lot of good memories in my high school. I visited the school and I somehow felt different to the place. A lot of things have changed. But I guess, one thing that never changed was friendship. I went there together with my high school barkada. Too bad, one of my kada was not able to attend the celebration. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the night!
BTW, Amy Perez, Agot Isidro, Bing Loyzaga (not sure if that's the correct spelling of her surname), Rhea Santos and Connie Reyes were Scholasticans @ Marikina. Agot and Amy were the host and they also invited Randy Santiago to sing! Energy was really high that night especially when we saw our teachers singing and dancing. :) I won't blog a long post cause I still have some law stuffs to do. But I'll leave you, guys, with a picture. :)
I wasn't aware that there were more nail shapes other than round and square. Whenever I have my nails done in a salon, I'd prefer square. But now, I feel like I want SQUOVAL more for my nails.
I will definitely buy Amnesia after Nani and I finish GTA III. :)
Side note: We're on the finale part of the game (GTA III).
Anyway, going back to the main topic, I love horror games. The scariest I've played was Fatal Frame 1 and 3 and the gadgets weren't really mine though. I've played those games through a friend. BOOHOO! I have no PS2 or Wii for that matter but thank goodness I have my laptop with a really good video card!. Yehey! So when I mentioned this to my brother, Gab, he introduced Amnesia to me. I don't have the installer of that game yet but I'm really excited to play it. However, I just want to clear things up that I am not as brave as what you might think of a person who loves horror games. I rarely scream but that is because I'm too scared to do so. My eyes will just do this---> O_O
I don't know if some of you like to play computer games too (pc games like Half life 2, left4dead, Prototype, GTA and the like) but this side of me is more ancient than my other side who loves make up and pretty nice things.
Just to give you an overview of the game, here's a video I watched in youtube (which is supposed to be scary but turned out to be funny because the guy was so damn scared as hell. He's a guy so... it was really funny that he screamed like a girl. Hahaha!) Before you press play, I just want to warn you that you are going to hear him curse a lot (like Bajillion times) in this video. -_-
Amnesia
And another video of Pewdiepie just because he's so funny...
PENUMBRA
How about you girls? Do you play computer games? What games have you played? :)
There's nothing more tragic than losing someone you love.
Hello Girls!
I've recycled some photos and edited them a bit. I think I took this photo two years ago. I still had my straight rebonded hair in this photo! :)
Anyway, I feel better now.
Thanks for all those who sent comments to cheer me up! ^___^
Also, I am thinking of going back to my old hobby which is photography. And of course, my specialty is Portraiture. However, I still need to install Adobe Photoshop. My brother wanted me to install Adobe Photoshop CS5 last summer so I removed my CS2 (then I realized I don't have a back up installer). Unfortunately, his installer was incomplete so I had no photoshop software since then. :( boohoo. Bad news aside, my brother will borrow an installer of CS5 so there goes the brighter side of things! :)
PS. I have been planning to do some make up reviews or other beauty posts but I just don't have time for it. :( So many books and cases to read and study. I am very grateful that there are still people reading my blog. Hehe. :) I'll try to squeeze in some reviews during weekends. ^__^
