This is my entry to Techie She’s Lucky Blogger Weekly Giveaways Week No. 1. This week’s prize is one year blog hosting sponsored by Sheryl of GEORYL.
Oh really Chiz, you want to write too?
What are you going to write? Think, think and think! Come on, let it out and jot it down!
(This looks like she's thinking, right?)
This time she bent her head closer to the notebook,
kind of trying to write down something but she ended up inking the sheet.

So, without much ado, here's the super yummy mango float prepared by a high school friend on the 11th of May here in my place. Due to privacy, I am not disclosing her name here.
It was so nice of this high school friend of mine to prepare this sweet treat while she was here. She had only eaten two slices and left all the glory to finish the whole tray to me. What a treat! It took me two days to finish it. Yep, two days only for I couldn't resist it. Thanks dai, sa uulitin. Lol!

Nothing beats the beauty of a flower, that's why today, as a make up post for all my absences to the meme, I am posting a picture of these little flowers (don't know the name) for all JB participants.
This was taken a month ago while having my lunch time walk with my sister at the boulevard. Flowers always capture my fancy, so whenever I have my camera with me, I won't dare let an opportunity pass to capture the beauty. Aren't these little blooms added a beautiful scenery on that little walk way? They were like bunch of beauties in the walk way that were performing an exotic dance as the were moving along the wind and that lonely red flower was their star dancer.

I've been suffering from toothache for weeks now. I blame it to this ice treat, halo-halo. Lol!

Cheem surprised me on the night of her birthday, which was on the 15th of May. She arrived at my place with her boyfriend looking for her cake. Silly! It was unexpected so I wasn't able to prepare foods for her nor bought a cake. Since they arrived late and stores were already close, we thought of just celebrating her birthday in the morning the next day.
So these are the only preparations on my younger sister's birthday at my place. My mother prepared for her anyway on the very day of her birthday so for sure she was fine with what I had prepared. I'm thankful she took time to come and visit me even though she used her birthday as an excuse to see me. Lol.

As to the side note, I am fine with the three questions and/or a video.
Q1. What was the thing you heard that was just plain nuts? Giving a reporter something to report.
Q2. What have you recently done that others may consider to be nuts? Not eating all day and drinking alcohol all night long. It's what I've been doing.
Q3. When is it okay to be nuts? When you are drunk and don't know what you are doing, I think.

Our everyday wear is not complete without undergarments. I must say, undergarments are essential pieces of clothing in our everyday get-ups. Undergarments may be tiny pieces of clothing; still, we must take those that we are comfortable of wearing. Lately, I am hooked with calvin klein bras particularly the Seductive Comfort Customized lift strapless bra because it is comfortable to wear on strap less tops as it gives perfect fit and lift as long as you pick your appropriate size.
As to men’s, I saw an awesome place online for men’s underwear and active wear. It got nice boxer shorts and beach wears in there. Since summer is not over yet, you may want to jump in those O’NEILL and Hurley beach wears. Check it out now!

Inside the pink 2GO package is a pretty pink bag I won at Kurdapyaz's For The First Time blog giveaway. It is sponsored by Kurdapya herself from Kurdapyaz Collection. Visit her collection, you might want some goodies on her collection such as this pretty pink bag. Of course I love it too. My sister saw this bag today and as expected, she wants it. Haist!
Thank you Lord for the blessings I receive and of course to the generous sponsors. I didn't expect to win all these but I hoped for it. Win or lose, I am grateful to the sponsors for their generosity and for letting me take my chance of winning. Thank you so much!

I am not allowed to get sick, it is a short yet meaningful sentence I often hear from people who are working to support their family, in short, people who have responsibilities. It simply means they are not allowed to cut off their income by taking a leave due to sickness or else their family won’t survive from daily expenses. Luckily, there is now an insurance that can protect your income when you can’t go to work due to sickness or injuries. The funds you can get through this insurance is said to be able to cover daily living expenses and even rent and mortgage, which leaves you at ease while on the road to recovery. Check out income insurance australia to learn more about it and if you plan on getting a quote.

Happy Mothers’ Day Ma and to all mothers here in the blog land! I want you all to know that my mother is the best mother in the world. She may be imperfect but she’d shared a lot of perfect moments with me. I love her so much.
I may be late in greeting my mom here online but I wasn’t late offline. I only greeted her through text message though because I couldn’t greet her personally. I know she understood why I couldn’t go home and celebrate Mothers’ Day with her.

How much do you care about your hair? Our hair is our crowning glory that is why, among my body parts, it is my top priority. We may have hidden parasites in there or scalp problems but at least we could maintain it in its place and in its silkiness. It is unavoidable to have bad hair days. During those times, we can seek help from hair fixing gadgets.
Usually, after getting off the shower, we would get our hair dry and one big help to that is a hair dryer. Then after, we would either straighten our hair or curl it. But what particular brand of hair gadgets are you using? Are you sure you are using hair gadgets that won’t award you tragic hair damage? You might as well seek help from hair experts like flat iron experts dot com, a site that is composed of hair experts and sells professional hair strengtheners and any salon styling tools. Don’t mistake with the name of the site because they are not just flat iron and hair straightening experts but also on hair dryers and curlers. Actually, they are featuring the best hair dryers and best curling irons on their site right now. They are as well offering free shipping on orders over $70 CAD. You might want to check it out!

Wondering how I look like in my glasses? Wonder no more.
This picture is the only picture of me with my glasses on for never will I pose for the camera wearing it. I was unaware when this was photographed so whoever took this picture (one of my sisters is the suspect), she succeeded in taking picture of me with my glasses. When I first saw this picture though I was like, woh, I didn't know I look cool when I am serious! Ha Ha! I thought my glasses would make me look older but it actually made me look genius.
Obviously, I like the picture, thanks to the sweet culprit behind this stolen picture. Since I like the picture, I boasted it on Facebook and even used it at the primary picture of this blog's fan page there. Check out.

Have you seen me at the Royal Wedding? Lol. How I wish I’d seen it for real but I was glad Yahoo invited me to watch it live. It was just like watching fairy tale movies that have a happy ever after ending. Although I am not a fan of these Royal things as it won't benefit me but drool over their luxuries but I couldn’t resist the TV news here in the Philippines that kept showing it over and over again everyday.
So finally, on Friday, I had the urge to watch it live on Yahoo. Watching the live footage of the royal wedding totally awakened my curiosity to the Prince and his royal family, most especially his mother, the people’s princess, Princess Diana. I grew up with her story from her wedding, to the separation and her tragic death. Although I wasn’t born yet on her wedding day but later I’ve heard of her and how she’s loved by the people.
To this newly wed royal, I just hope them to have a blessed union. I hope they will continue to wrap their marriage with love, loyalty, trust and respect. While watching the video, my eyes were pasted on Kate Middleton’s that is now Princess Catherine Duchess of Cambridge. She looked so beautiful in her simple yet very elegant wedding gown. She’s indeed a Princess! The wedding sure was a very splendid one and is every woman’s dream. We can only hope for their happy ever after.
