Most of you know I’m currently in the Philippines with the family. Well, if you’re like us (balikbayans or whatever you want to call it) then you know how your relatives/families react around here. Seriously, it’s when you come back from abroad, that you’ll see who’s really their for you or for your money. I have 98% of my relatives here in the Philippines. We’ve already sent them big packages $100s worth of stuff for Christmas. But since we are HERE on Christmas, they expect to get more. Some of our relatives (those who we’re close to) understands that money isn’t something we can just give away and that they shouldn’t expect more you know? But of course, there’s always that one that’s always like “more more more.”

I just think it’s kind of rude… I understand it’s harder to earn money here in the Philippines, but my parents also worked hard (a lot of overtimes) to get what they have. They don’t understand that though. Funny thing is, the one who’s always asking is the one that has “everything.” Can you say GREEDY!? or Money hungry!?

Anyways… other than that, my parents still give give give… then they complain that they don’t have anymore money. I understand that yes that’s your sister/brother (whatever) and you want to help them out, but I honestly think there should be a limit. Why are you supporting them? When they’re not even working (or only a couple of people in their family are). Shouldn’t they work for their money to? It’s like you’re spoiling them because you just give give give. So what do you expect? Of course they’re gonna keep asking for more!

So we’re here on vacation -FOR OUR FAMILY (US, who came back from the states).. but seriously, it seems like it’s FOR OUR RELATIVES, not US.

I guess it just really bothers me that they’re giving money away like it’s nothing… then complain that they don’t have anymore; And when going to places, they pay for everyone ELSE but their kid. I usually don’t complain about this stuff, for it’s whatever and I have my own money but seriously?

I haven’t asked my parents for anything in such a long ass time! I haven’t asked my parents for gas money, food money, tuition money, ANY freaking money.. since.. I don’t even know! Oh and I paid for my own ticket for this trip… because they wouldn’t pay for me, I was cool with that though. But I at least expect for them to spare $10 for me on a freaking excursion when they’re giving money left and right. Whatever.. I’m probably just overreacting. But I am pretty mad though…

Sorry about my long rant…
Bye guys! Hope you’re all having a great day/night though! xoxo

I usually don’t ask for anything for Christmas.. but I think this year, I will.
Though I highly doubt that “I will ask” for these bhaha (because I hate asking for things). So I might just end up buying them myself :P

Hi everyone, I haven’t blogged in a while so I thought I’d jump on here for a few. So first thing, only 5 days left until my trip to the Philippines. I’m so excited that I have everything packed already, except for my carry on. hehe I also already have most of my pre-filmed videos situated, but I still am filming more tomorrow and on tuesday though. Wednesday is when I’m going to edit everything, make my thumbnails and do all the descriptions for them. lol Wow, I sound like a YouTube nerd. Aside from that, I’m also getting my nails done on Wednesday… I might also get my hair done, just my roots though, but I’m not sure yet.

I still have other things to buy at the store: Passort holder, shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, dry shampoo. You know, the basics :) Hmm, I keep thinking that I’m forgetting something… but I’m pretty sure I’m not.

Other than that, we are also pretty much done packing for our house. We already moved all our furnitures and 80% of our stuff to the storage unit yesterday, so all that’s really left are our essentials, dishes, some clothes, etc… It’s so weird because our house is pretty much empty. I just really can’t wait to be in the Philippines already. I’m not really looking corward to the “getting” there part though.

It’s an hour flight from Green Bay, WI to Minneapolis… then from Minneapolis to Tokyo, which is like 16hrs? Ugh!!! Oh and then Tokyo to Manila, which is a 5hr flight. Gawd… I’m definitely going to have my tablet, cell, iTouch charged and packed with music and movies! Tom’s too! bahaha We hope they last the whole time to keep us entertained.

If you guys have any apps, movies, music suggestions… let me know ;) So anyways, I literally feel like crap at the moment. Earlier today it was just a headache, now its a little fever and this sickly feeling in my stomach. I blame it on the weather. We seriously got about… 3-6 inches of snow over night and its super cold. Though today the snow is kind of melting though so the roads are pretty much slush. Yuck!

Alright, I feel like I’m boring you guys so, onto something exciting. I purchased some things from Romwe.com last week. (I love romwe hehe) My order are suppose to come in some time this upcoming week… before I leave for P.I. so I’m excited! Down below are some of the things I ordered :) I couldn’t find everything, for some weren’t available anymore.

Platform Zipper Ankle Book

Retro Pleated Style Cream-Colored Shift Dress

V-Neck Short Sleeves Grey T-Shirt
Skull Print White T-shirt

Ahhh, I’m so excited to get my stuff, especially the shoes! They reminded me of the Jeffrey Campbell Litas… lol Ahh, just so exciting! I’ll definitely be doing fashion videos on these. Ps. if you haven’t shopped at Romwe, you’re missing out! They alwasy have amazing deals every month, plus free shipping :) hehe

Okay, I’m gonna stop blabbing. lol bye loves!!!

Meet dollyBOOK! (Yes, I named my tablet lol) So I purchased a tablet on Black Friday. I got a really good deal on this… it was Originally $499 at RadioShack but they had it on sale for $199 ♥ AMAZING right!? Before I talk more about my Blackberry Playbook, let me just tell you the trouble that I went through before I bought this.

I originally wanted the tablet by “Coby” that I saw online at WalMart but they didn’t have it in stock at the WalMart near me. So Tom & I went over to KMart and found this tablet by Archos that’s suppose to run with Droid 2.2 for ONLY $80! We bought that one then when we got home, found out that it only ran Droid 1.0.2, WTF!? So we go back to the store RIGHT BEFORE they close… Bought the “Coby” tablet that they had there.. I didn’t really get to look at it though for they were closing and the sales person was hurrying us so whatever, we just bought it. I did ask the sales person if it has a camera and she was like YUP. So I was good to go… or so I thought! Got home, opened it and nope.. no camera and I paid $180+ for it!!! I didn’t even bother turning it on or whatever. I didn’t want it…

Woke up on Black Friday around 6am, went back to KMart to return it and to see what else they had… I saw that they had this one on sale for $99.99 (I don’t remember the name though) but it had a camera, ran Droid 2.3 and was a resistive touch screen (which I didn’t want). I wanted to play around with it first but they didn’t have one that was charged and stuff, well… I bought it anyway thinking it’s probably the cheapest tablet I’ll find that day for cheap. After buying that, I don’t know why but I decided to go over to RadioShack… Got there and saw the Blackberry Playbook on SALE for $199! And they only had 2 left in stock! *UGHHH* I bought it! :D loll Returned the other one and here I am.. HAPPY AS CAN BE ♥ I’m pretty sure KMart hates me LOLLL

What I wanted from a Tablet: Lightweight, pretty big screen, non resistive touchscreen, runs adobe flash, has downloadable free apps, WiFi, camera, can sync files, can upload videos to YouTube, HD videos.

Honestly.. with everything I want there and my “budget.” (under $250)
I knew I wasn’t going to get a nice tablet. bahaha! But boy was I wrong O.O;

The Blackberry Playbook IS: Lightweight & Sleek!

The Blackberry Playbook HAS: 7′in LCD Multi Touch Display, a camera.. A DUAL HD Camera!, 1GHZ Dual-Core Processor, 1GB Ram, 16GB of space, WiFi, Free Apps, Amazing Battery Life.

The Blackberry Playbook CAN: Run Flash, Sync Files!, Upload videos to YouTube, Broadcast on BlogTV, Take HD 1080p Videos!!!, Great Audio.

Did I mention it came with a slip/cover!? USB Cords, Charger, & Headphones
Yeah.. I love my tablet… it’s seriously like a mini laptop ♥ I AM IN LOVE!!!

For those wondering.. you can sync ANY files with this tablet. I’ve done documents (word, excel, powerpoint, pdf) any type of pictures, mp3, wma, avi, mp4, wmv, etc and it works.
» To sync files just download the Blackberry Playbook Desktop Software, synching files literally takes less than a minute (depending on how big the files are) & it’s easy, just drag & drop ;)
» You can also do automatic synching if you want.

Now… can your iPad do all this shiiizzz???? :P

Hello everyone ♥
As most of you might already know… I’ll be in the Philippines from December 9th until January 3rd and I really want to do some type of Meet & Greet. I’m not for sure where and when yet but if you are in the Philippines and are interested on meeting me, please fill out the form below :) I will be staying in Malolos during my stay there but I will also be traveling to a lot of different places so it doesn’t really matter where you are in the Philippines ♥ Also, I’ll be getting a cell when I get there, so if text messaging is the best way to contact you -go ahead and type in your number.
(NOTE that ALL information you give me will be confidential, I promise ^-^)

I for sure want to do a Meet & Greet in Greenbelt (that’s in Makati I believe) or MoA (Mall of Asia), so that’s kind of a “for sure” place at the moment. If you have any other suggestions, restaurants, malls, whatever.. feel free to tell me. I’m open for anything. Also, I don’t know yet if I want to do this before or after Christmas.. probably both, but let me know which one is better for you :)

Oh! I want to add that I will be for sure visiting Baguio, Subic, & Pampangga (I have relatives there)… so maybe some of you are from there? I’m visiting other places too but I have to confirm with my parents.. LOL

So that’s pretty much it… If I’m missing anything, just let me know hehe.
I really can’t wait to meet you guys ♥ YAYYY!
