Hello there! What's up with your week? I'm back to school right now having my summer class. So far so good! For today,  I just want to share to you guys my current favorites that I have been loving since I discovered them. Without further ado, let's get into it! Landscape picture: mentioned from left to right. Portrait picture: Look how much I used Baby powder candle, almost half full! 🌼 Starlytes in Apple cinnamon This is the candle that I'm currently using now. I bought this in Handyman . I don't know if you know this hardware but they actually sells very good scented candle like this one.  The smell of this candle is really good just like its name.  From its scent this is so nice to lit during evening. If you have autumn season in your place, this is definitely a must-try candle.  🌼  Starlytes in Pomegranate pear This is also from Handyman . I tried to lit this candle for a night and it was so good too! The smell is obviously citrusy a...

A penny saved is a penny earned

At this very moment, I pledge my heart, my soul, and my dignity to truly save 50% of my allowance and put it on a very secured piggy bank. My savings will be my happiness as it will be used to buy any things that I ever dreamed to have. Starting on this month until September 2016, I should have a total savings of Php 10,000.00. Total savings planned every month should be followed.  Any reason that the rule is disregard, the total savings for the next month will increase to compensate for the reduction.   sgd Fiona Hi everyone! As you can see I just have my pledge above. I am actually serious about it. I have notice that I have a lot of things that I want to own ever since but I never have them. For the past years, I save poorly because I have no exact or formal plans on my goal. So, this time I created a savings plan! Hopefully I can keep this up and this is actually a basic savings plans, not a very professional one though. Disclaimer: I am not very kn...

Icing vs.frosting & Harry Potter

One week left and my vacation is over. Summer class is near. ~sigh Yet, I just want to give an update to my summer goals, which I had shared 3 weeks ago, and yey! I made a little bit of accomplishment. 1. Go bake and cook.   Presenting my messy chocolate cupcake! Yeah I know, my little sister got overboard in putting the sprinkles. She may had been so excited about it. I used a ready made cupcake mix in this, so the flavor is already fix. Ready made mixes are my aunt's advice when I'm still learning how to bake. On making the frosting, I was kind of unaware of the differences of frosting and icing. Yeah, poor me. I never knew that frosting is something that has more viscous texture more like a filling. While icing is the fluffy one. So as I made the frosting, which I thought I made an icing, I was puzzled on the texture. Just so I know, I was making a frosting instead. The recipe was quite confusing though. 2. Indulge myself to TV series.   Although I didn't...

The Lyrics Tag!

So I happen to see this on  Renee's blog: Lose The Road  and I find it very amusing to do.  So, I decided to give it a shot! Rules:  You can only answer the following questions using the lyrics of songs from one band or artist. Artist I chose: Taylor Swift •••Describe how you feel today We're happy, free, confused and lonely at the same time It's miserable and magical oh yeah Tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines ••• Describe your bestfriend But I keep cruising Can't stop, won't stop grooving It's like I got this music In my mind Saying, "it's gonna be alright". ••• How many times have you been rejected? But I've got a blank space, baby And I'll write your name ••• Tell us the 'story of your life' Oh, a simple complication, Miscommunication lead to fall-out. So many things that I wish you knew, So many walls up I can't break through. ••• How do you act when you're aro...

How I will spend my Summer!

It's summer time!  For everyone's information, summer in Philippines starts at the end of the school year which will be on the second or third week of March. Summer for Filipinos is not necessarily alike to other Western countries that comes out after Spring. Because Philippines do not have the four seasons, just rainy and sunny. Yet, during the months of March to April, where we take a long break from the strenuous school year, we call it as our Summer besides having almost a very hot climate during this time in most places in the Philippines. Our Summer ends on the first week of June since that will be the start of another school year. At least, this is what we Filipinos noticed in our culture. However, our education system already begun to implement the K-12 education which changed the starting of classes. It will now be like other countries that starts their classes on August until April or May, if I'm not mistaken. Anyways, enough of that. I will just have ...
