Christmas giveaways

Panic! We were told that there will be an exchange of tokens for co-residents and fellows a week before the party. It was a short notice that i got to worry what to give, not to mention the need to cut the budget since we are the ones who will shoulder the food (first year ehem). Thanks to my shopaholic prowess, i know where to find stuffs at a lower price. The secret to mass gift-giving is buying in bulk. Since i was short of time, there's no chance I could go to Divisoria and tiyangges to find cheap stuff. Besides, going there during this season is really "buwis-buhay" LOL... For the girls, I find it easier to find kikay gifts that could also be useful at the same time.
These are Bath and Body works vanity case worth $10 each, i got them in bulk together with Victoria's Secret and Clinique cosmetic cases. Lot of 20 for only Php960 at Ebay. Thanks to my favorite seller http://myworld.ebay.ph/jnlink777 for saving the day!
I also added up these Bon Bons flavored swirl lip glosses. 15 pieces for only less than 500 pesos. Really a steal :))
Done with my girls, the difficult part is shopping for guys. I'm really not an expert in gift-giving so I asked a guy friend for help :) thanks tian. We came across Saizen Japanese store in Ali Mall and grabbed these car accessories. Everything is at a fixed price of 85pesos. It's a bigger version of Daiso!
The adrenaline rush kept on, luckily I found this lifesaver store in Ali Mall named "As Is Where Is" I think it's an outlet store of Gourdo's, (the shopping bags are labeled Gourdos). This store is really amazing. It carries brands like Arcopal, Rubbermaid, Sleepcare, Lacoste etc....things that our moms would really love. Most of the stuffs here are for the kitchen and housekeeping, but to my luck I found these lovely iHip earphones, bought them for half the price off!
Lastly, who wouldn't wanna grab a Sleepcare Anti-Mite and Anti-Bacterial pillow. I was able to grab this King size pillow for a way lower price :D A steal for a little below 500 pesos :D
Finally solved with my giveaways. Happy Holidays :D DISCLAIMER: The brands and stores mentioned above are not connected to me in any way :)

kikay kit

being a big make-up fan, organizing my kikay kit has always been a task...papalit palit kc ako. most of the time i bring big clutch bags to fit in my "koloretes". ang arte talaga hahaha. tuloy i end up also bringing big bags where these clutches would fit in----bag within a bag. pero na-realize ko even when i go to school, ang laki ng dala ko pero majority lng dito pampaarte. ewan ko b naman toxic talaga ako, its like im gonna die if i wouldnt bring my talc in a tall canister and my body splash plus my kikay kit. so ano nga ba ang laman ng mahiwagang kikay kit na ito...the thing why its getting heavy is that i bring things in doubles...2 shades for each hahaha siguro dala na rin ng pagiging fickle-minded ko. pero dahil s katoxican hindi ko rin naman actually nagagamit talaga. kaya nga lately talagang pinapractice ko ang NO TO BIG BAG PROJECT lol. i started unloading the doubles at gawin n lng tig-isa...i even settled for a flip phone at iwanan n muna sa bahay ang bulky pda...

what you do not know

today i stumbled into several stuff that reminds me of you. i trembled seeing our smiles on a photo taken more than a year ago. reading your letters gave me a familiar feeling almost exactly the way i felt the first time i read it. but at the back of my mind, i was telling myself these were all lies. all were fantasies being dreamt by a teenage girl who was never hurt and never felt being left behind. i know for a fact i was crazy then. im not even sure if there were regrets. but whenever i refresh those sweet moments i had with you my heart felt coldness...longing for you and wondering will there still be a chance to have you close to me once more. madness, it is...that i am completely aware of. but through the years i have tried to push you away from my mind heart and my mind...the more i build barriers, the more i get trapped. all these time i was trying to convice myself that you were the best liar alive that i have encountered...but your lies were so good...so good i wanted to ta...
