Only in the Philippines
"It is more fun in the Philippines". It is only within us to explore what we have in the Philippines, to take a peek at Filipinos' history and culture mirrored by century-old churches, ancient forts and modern museums and to see the best of nature in our white-sand beaches and three-layered virgin forests.
One of my plan this year is to pursue my goal of discovering awesome place that could only be found in the Philippines.
Here is my list of places where I want to go this year and of course list of places I believe I shouldn't dare miss:
1. Ilocos Sur. I wanted to see Baluarte with my daughter and Visit Heritage Village at Vigan and of course try to ride Calesa and have a tour at Vigan Town and see St. Paul Cathedral and have a picture at the octagonal shaped bell tower that is located 10 meters to the south of the cathedral. And of course to have a taste of the famous Vigan Longganisa and Vigan Empanada
2. Banaue and Sagada. Last year, my buddies already planned to go to Banaue and experience Sagada, though it did not materialized. I just hope this time I could again see the 2000 year old Banaue rice terraces that has been recognized as one of the "Eighth Wonder of the World" and the only man made wonder that is sculpted from earth. I say again because I've seen Banaue 12 years ago and the experience is very much awesome and splendid. Though, I wasn't been able to go to Sagada that time so this time I want to re-visit Banaue and visit Sagada and experience its scenic and famous caves, hanging coffins, magnificent rice terraces, pine forests and mossy forests.
3. Bohol. One of my ultimate Philippine travel dream is to see the Chocolate Hills, Tarsiers and beautiful Beaches of Bohol.
I only have three travel plans here in the Philippines this year, though I also want to go to Palawan, Davao, Surigao, Boracay and more ......here in the Philippines, (haiizzz if only my budget permits hehe)
How about you? What is your travel experience here in the Philippines? Have you experienced fun in your travel? I do hope so for you will experience it...... only in the Philippines!!

Stand tall!!!
Yes, I admit I'm not tall, but I don't admit that I am short (hehe)...I only stands 5 ft? And my hubby stands 5'8", so can you imagine how we looks when we go around together(lol). I really want to stand tall especially when I am with him...
A friend suggested I should always wear a high heel shoes. Hence, high heel shoes will not only makes me tall thus, a high heel shoes could also create a wonderful charming affect in our personality which is admired by men and ultimately become a cause of increased confidence and fame. I am considering having some soon, though I want it to really suit my taste and of course it is within the trend.
Here are some of my finds (which I google) that I think will surely help me to stand tall and probably makes me more charming (wink)
I could use it on my Ph.D. class during the weekends.
I could use it at the office. Could be best partnered with my Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday Office Uniform
Wow, this one is for occasions and with formal dates with the hubby and buddies
Good for my Monday and Tuesday Office Uniform.
There are still more high heel shoes I like but this are my fav picks.
How about you? Do you like to stand tall. Do you want wearing high heel shoes? What are your choices?

I love Pearl Earrings
February is not only for Valentine’s Day Celebration. It is also our school Foundation Anniversary. And when I say Anniversary, I also say time to have a new Dress adorn with perfect accessory.
One activity that we usually have is the “Search for Mr. & Ms. PUNP”, thus all Faculty and Staff are required to be on their best dress since it is a formal occasion.
For now, I am thinking of wearing a brown dress which I bought a year ago (haha couldn’t wear before because of my big size..but now…hmmm wink!) and I am looking for a perfect jewelry to pair my dress with. I want something that is simple but of course elegant and captivating, though the only jewelry on my mind is a pearl earrings.
Yes, I love pearl..pearl earrings like this:

Wish....wish!!!

This is sparkle finds
In this big big world, we don't only find something, we also discover something that we haven't realize, it might not only a fantasy but could be a reality.
Or We also come across to someone who in one way or another may have done something good in one's life.
Or We may also hit on something that may not be possible for us to have or to own though we could consider having it someday.
Or we may uncover something that we haven't realize it is already within us a long long time ago.
Or we might stumble on a simple pleasures of our life's treasures.
The inspiration behind the creation of this blog is the belief that in all sides of this world, there are things that really shines, thus, we have sparkle finds...
