From Manila with Love: updates

I never really made a kind of "official" post greeting this blog and everyone who reads it a Happy 2014 . Something like a re-cap of the past year.

So I give you five of the most popular entries from 2013.

And now, a little music to skim through this very short list. (What? Ariana Grande again?!...I know ok, I like her and Mika. And you gotta admit, it's really catchy.)

First up, a food "review" of sorts on this Korean dish. Click me or the image to take you to the magical post.

This was when I decided to get highlights and contemplate on why anyone would want to get their hair dyed gray. Click me or the image to take you to the magical post.

I still very much like the quad 'til now. They're not smooth and "buttery" but I like the colors and the case. But regarding this powder, I don't like anymore. The packaging is flimsy as f*ck and the lasting power isn't made for humid places. Click me or the image to take you to the magical post.

My allergic reaction this Maybelline primer was so astounding I looked like I had red rashes on my face. The beauty treats one leaves a lot to be desired, for something so popular (always sold out according to the SA). Click me or the image to take you to the magical post.

Last but not the least, my "love letter" to Ethan Peck. Wherein I croon sweet nothings to him. Click me or the image to take you to this very handsome and magical post. Tee Hee.

PS. Do you have a "popular list" too? Leave it down below. :)

Because there's been a huge interest in makeup lately or anything beauty related, partly (or mostly in my opinion) because of beauty "YouTubers" or Beauty Vloggers. I think it's pretty nice that a lot of women are not afraid to go out with a heavily made-up face because they consider it an extension of their whole look which is one of makeup's uses really. Youth is a time for experimentation after all....or at least I certainly think so. And besides it's your life. Nobody's dying just because you put eyeshadow on.

Unless it's electric blue. On your whole lid. In broad daylight.

Then count me paralyzed.

Moving on, I'm actually thinking of selling brushes. I posted a picture on Instagram (@manilawithlove) a few days back and if you're from the Philippines, would get one for yourself?

Or as a gift perhaps? Christmas is looming. (I used looming because I'm not particularly excited about the fact that it's almost Christmas)

I will price it appropriately of course. (I got yo back ;) )

Do let me know if you're interested.

I also posted a picture of my old Victoria's Secret bag. Details in my instagram account. I'm selling it for Php100 because I want to get rid of some stuff and that's the first thing I saw. Shipping is probably pricier than this bag.

PS. It's authentic. Got it from the States. If you're interested I can send some sexy inside shots of the bag as well.

PPS. It's used. Or rather "pre-loved". Missing some glitters. Yes, big chunks not the craft kind of glitters. But it just looks like the bag's pattern. All stitching is still there. No holes. Doesn't smell funky. Etc etc.

Call me ;)

or just email me. I'd rather you email me/instagram me. I was just trying to be flirty there...

Why?

Don't ask me. I do weird things.

Why hello there, I didn’t know goddesses like you could exist in real life *wink* *wink* *licks lips* …ew.

It's an hour and a half past witching hour as I'm writing this down, so quite naturally, I deduced it's time for another blog update! Which explains why I just wrote that disgusting pick-up line. I don’t even know what it means. Is it really even a pick-up line?

Hey you.

Happy New Year!

Meow?

Starting my post with something light, fluffy and, well, vain. I have an upcoming post about the New Year and goals and stuff and hauls and hauls and more hauls. And some reviews on the side. And music posts too! I miss doing those. Anyway, cheers for the new opportunities and meeting new people, and let me leave you with a very inspiring quote for this 2013.

Indeed.

This is the reason why I have been M.I.A. or as I like to call it internet-dead for the past couple of weeks, nay, more than a whole month actually {not counting the promo I recently posted. It was for a friend.}. Come to think of it, I haven't really been active in all the other social networking sites, much less my phone wherein which my usual recipients are inside my familial circle. I'm THAT disconnected to the outside world.

How this woeful incident came about I can only put blame on myself. Sigh. 'Tis too tragic a tale to recount for fear of unhappy emotions might again resurface.

PS. I like to talk {like in real life} like this, mixing up regular speech with pseudo-Shakespearean-era-like words when I like to dramatize certain events and make light of it in a way so I won't feel like sh*t.

I do feel much better about this though...Probably because I'm getting a new laptop in the coming months. But for now, I'm settling in my old College netbook, which I've outgrown since I needed something more upscale for designing/video editing/web development.

PPS. I'm enjoying that little snippet of a GIF on my post. Please enjoy crying Patrick as well.

So are you going or what?
