Re: Happy Valentines with Pond's Age Miracle! Post and win!

I was never able to celebrate V-Day because hubby's out of the country and it just so happened that my little boy was sick, too. Spent the entire day home nursing my sick kid.

But then, I still have plans of celebrating it with hubby and kid. I am hoping that he will be able to fly home in the next few days for a vacation. Thinking of both of us having a spa massage and then, dinner in a posh hotel. I'm not really into V-Day celebrations but when you and your partner are miles away from each other, busy managing a house, taking care of kid all by yourself and doing some part-time work, sometimes, special days are already luxuries, opportunities of rekindling the lovey-dovey days. :D

Joining your fabulous giveaway for the first time. :)

I only have The Fanny Serrano Professionals complete hair collection in mind for my most coveted prize and then I re-read the instructions. :p

Which three prizes would you like to win and why?

And here are my answers:

1. Fanny Serrano Professionals Hair Care complete line + complete breakfast meal and drink at Ya Kun Kaya Toast ----> No time to pamper myself in the salon (no yaya or trusted people to leave Miguel to) and I really wanna try FS hair care line. I have wavy, unruly hair and has always been looking for 'hiyang' hair care products. The breakfast Ya Kun Kaya Toast will be such a treat after reading those yummy entries. :)

2. Jewelmer mother of pearl necklace and coffee table book - choosing this for my mother who loves pearls. She knows that I am always the 'functional' gift-giver and it will be such a surprise for her to receive this. :) The coffee table book will be added to my collection should mudra doesn't feel like having it. :)

3. Diamond Peel session + Cleanser and Toner sampler from House of Obagi --- never really tried one because I never felt comfy about having anyone/anything touch my face due to fear. But then, I've been hearing rave reviews about this. Being in my 30s makes me wanna rethink of how to take care of my face and it's time to try this diamond peel and even those products from House of Obagi.

OMG! Their dresses are so fab and I wish I will still look young as years go by, just like those girls. :)

Re: Pond's Cold Cream for removing eye make-up...

Ivy — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 06:37:34 -0000

Hahaha. You just reminded me about those fragile-looking but sometimes heavy porcelain jars. Mama even kept some of the jars as reminders of the past. LOL.

I love this product. I always keep one in my bag especially when I'm out and partying. Handy sya especially when the need to commute is not so far away. i don't want people from the streets to pay too much notice when I wear heavy make-up.

Re: A clarification about Cradle Magazine

Ivy — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 06:27:29 -0000

he/she has been contacting me sa fb kung sumali na daw ba ako. Sabi ko iche-check ko pa. Actually, sa yo ko lang nalaman yung P250 reg. The thing is: lots of kiddie contests out there & no money involved. Ok lang if they have something different to offer kaya may registration but nothing naman.

uy, i just got an email from the coordinator about the contest.

Baby Ashton, you're so cute! Lace, take care. Eat healthy. :p

I pray for Lace & the baby's well-being. Take care, you guys...(hugs)

Oh oh. I just booked & paid a 2-nite stay @ GoHotels this June. Do they serve breakfast na ba? If not, where the hell will I feed Miguel at odd hours din kung di sila allow ng food inside?

I hope I won't regret it. I booked a stay there so I can feel relax for a day or two. Hindi para makunsumi.

Re: Waterfront Airport Hotel & Casino Mactan

Ivy — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 01:54:37 -0000

Back when I was still working corporate, I rarely use the Waterfront Hotel in Mactan. Even some of our guests who are foreign diplomats and businessmen (who wants to combine business and pleasure - they couldn't resist the charm and allure of Cebu no matter how busy they are) prefer other hotels in Cebu like Shangri-La Hotel Mactan and the Waterfront Hotel in Lahug.

Well, about the security naman, they're pretty strict kasi you know, casino. Ewan ko lang kung consistent pa sila ngayon. Dati yes.

I think I'm gonna try this one. Kinda liked it based on you review. Thanks.

Btw, happy (32nd or 33rd) birthday. Hope you have a blast. :)

What time start ang trip? Can I bring my 2 yr old if ever?

Re: na notice ko lang

Ivy — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 23:11:09 -0000

It's their loss. Karma lang din yan. You'll never know baka yung dinidikitan nila ngayon, i-dump din sila. Don't sweat about it. They're not real friends, at least, now you know. If they come back, deadma mo nga. Hehehe.

Great relevant entry as usual, Mocha Dad.

Thanks for sharing this. I'll keep note of this when my 2 yr old grows a little older. Oh, you know, he's in the so-called terrible twos phase. :)

Not familiar with the person but it's sad loss, isn't it? And also young. *sigh* May he rests in peace.

I chanced upon this blog while bloghopping. I thought I'd join to rekindle the feeling of how music makes me feel. So here's my 1st participation. :)

Aw, I love it. Sayang. I had a hard time shopping for maternity clothes, more so, a swimwear.

I've seen Nina Ricci Alagao on tv one time. I think the episode then was how to apply basic make-up. Nakakatuwa when I watched it kasi I've been wanting to try how to properly apply them. 3 days pala yan? Try ko maka-attend sa 3rd day. Wala naman pre-registration di ba?

I agree. Had our civil wedding, too. Within 5 years na lang ang bongga. :) Best wishes & congratulations to both of you...oops, 3 pala. Ingat kayo. :)
