Freeway Summer and Spring Collections

Colorful, fun, outgoing, relaxed are just few of the adjectives I could immediately think of when I look at Freeway's Spring and Summer Collection. A few days back, I showed you the different look of their swimwear but I am also intrigued on their very own definition 

Also, it is wearable weather going out for a night life and or going to work. A perfect match to every lifestyle of every woman.

Project Mountain Alphabet goes to Colalo Elementary School

I had this quick chat with my brother Jan Irvin as his wife gave birth to their first child and so excited for my first niece. After a quick chit chat we went down to business. I am helping him succeed in his library project for the school where he is teaching.

Colalo Elementary School is technically a school in a barrio. Good thing they have electricity in that place. My mother used to work on the said school and that's where we (me and my siblings) had our first encounter with the people of Colalo folks. Now, my brother is teaching there as well.

Now, we currently have 3 big boxes composed of old and new reference books, magazines (National Geographic, readers digest), encyclopedia, novels, and story books. Seeing their school library has tons of work to do and so we are all starting it one step at a time.

This time around I am thankful for everyone who is behind these project. Many thanks to Budget Biyahera for her books and blog post, to Special Education Philippines for the books you shared and of course to A Day In The Life of This Miss for your donations and helping out in our fund raising campaign.

To all Thomson Reuters Employee Manila who participated in the fund raising activity and book giving activity. Surely the books and donations you shared will be used by many. Angela Chua and Leigh Maneja, I am thankful for all the support and effort you have extended with our project.

To Rosalie Amparo of Development Bank of the Philippines, thank you for your support. We hope to see you in our upcoming projects as well. Truly you are an inspiration to many women.

Truly Rich Overseas Filipino Investors (TROFI) who are based in Singapore. We are grateful for your unparalleled support on this project. Your generosity is remarkable and far-reaching. A true "Kababayan," which makes us proud to be a Filipino.

Thank you as well to BOOK FOR A CAUSE for donating 3 boxes of text books. May God Almighty bless you more and may you always be successful in your chosen endeavor!

The project is a resounding success which is a reflection of genuine compassion and the Filipino modern way of "bayanihan." The Project Mountain Alphabet on behalf of the Colalo Elementary School teachers and pupils would like to take this opportunity to say a heartfelt "Thank You!" We will pray for your success and more blessings from our Almighty.

My Top 5 Picks for Summer Getaway at Lazada

Lazada is a perfect one stop shop with so much great deals from anything and almost everything like gadget, fashion apparels, cosmetics, appliances, sports, travel items and gears, unique home and living items, wonderful accessories, and a lot more.

Summer is just around the corner and it is the best time to go out and explore the beauty of the islands here and abroad. I already knew Lazada as I subscribe through their Facebook page but I did not have the time to actually visit their website.

So over the weekend, I finally decided to check their website to see what they have to offer and lo and behold I found a perfect summer takeaway.

Here are my Top Picks...

Luggage: I am not a fan of it but seeing this Travel Mate 08-85108 Hard Case Luggage (Black) 20" is just a perfect pick for me as it looks perfect for either holiday summer getaway or official business travel. What interest me most are the prints as it gives more class and sophistication.With its size of 54 x 31 x 76 I wouldn't need an extra bag for all my clothes this summer. For only Php 1700.00 from its original price of Php 2000.00 you would already have a luggage that is secured and intact. Rain or shine, bumpy or sandy pavement you don't have to worry because this hard case with built in TSA Lock keeps your belonging secure and safe.

Pack-It 2-Sided Cube-Morocco is your perfect partner when going out of town. One thing is for sure, you'll gonna love the idea of having the capability to set aside the dirty and clean laundry that you have. It comes really handy when going on a company or barkada summer getaways. Your perfect bag at the beach. For only Php 600.00 you'd be worry free from swindlers and pick pockets wanting to take advantage on tourists.

Who would reject a Samsung Digital Camera with 5X Digital Zoom? Am sure everyone would love it. Grab this camera as a graduation gift for your loved one. A point and shoot camera comes really handy when travelling. At least you could always be on the go and ready to snap those explicit and wonderful experiences along the way. This is my first ever camera and had totally loved it.

Beach party, bonfire, and camping sometimes gets really boring at night without music. Worry no more I found Cliptec Magic-Mate Portable Multimedia Speaker really handy since it is pocket size and providing a crystal clear audio for MP3, MP4, Iphone and or music phones. You can still enjoy the perfect summer getaway with friends chatting or dancing while heating up your marshmallow.

SUNBLOCK! SUNBLOCK! SUNBLOCK! Worry no more! Enjoy the summer heat! Block those harmful rays of the sun with these perfect Kustie Sunblock cream.

Aside from my top 5. I have one last bonus must have! What about snorkeling at the beach? It would definitely be perfect with Mascot Goggles. The lenses resist fogging and allows you to see clearly under water! Am sure I would love to see those fishes swimming gracefully!

Check out their website for any special discount they offer every now and then.

Heather Kim Turns 18

I know that debut or the 18th birthday is one of the most important events in a woman's life. Everyone has their own way of celebrating it of course. The 3 most usual is 1. to have the grandest celebration with all the 18 roses and candles 2. Just celebrate it plain and simple and treat it like an ordinary day and 3. No Celebration at all

I think for us we did celebrate it just like a normal birthday celebration. We dine out... just the four of us and still we had fun. Bottom line is how you grow as the days go by. Knowing your priorities, setting your own goals and plans and achieving them bullet per bullet is the best gift you could give to yourself.

Happy Birthday Heather!

What's in Men's Closet

Men too has their own simple way of taking care of their own skin. After a days work, men should have their little time of pampering their skin so as not to age early and to at least look younger and better. Being good looking doesn't stop by simple having a pretty face.

To be good looking is simple being free from oily face and of course pimple free. The only way to have it is of course to simply have a clean lifestyle.

Don't just grab any products out there. You should always know your skin type and always have a moisturizing cream before leaving the house and of course before going to bed. A facial wash is a good way to eradicate those harmful substances our face gets whenever we go out. 

I don't like the feeling of shaving because it hurts. However, Nivea Shaving Foam and Nivea Shaving Gel is just perfect.
