How I Made It Thru My Laziness


I woke up one morning and thought, I want to shop! But I was too lazy to get up and dress myself to pass by malls before I go to work. And then, I remembered my good friend Zalora.

I wasn't really a fan of buying things online (especially huge amounts) because I feel my credit card might get screwed and might end me owing something I did not purchase. Aside from that, I was also not really very confident that I might not get the right size or it's not the one I bought, or simply, I don't like it at all, pala! Until I knew of someone who has tried this online purchasing and so I tried it. 

This is already my second time to buy in Zalora. Remember, after being curious of buying online., this time Zalora helped my PMS-ing issues. :) 

Zalora has thousands of goods anything from clothes to shoes to accessories, branded or from the marketplace, for men and of course, for the ladies. My favorites come from Spring Fling and Something Borrowed. Affordable, classy and good materials, Zalora chooses their line of items for sale well. Sort items by price, popularity or by doscount, Zalora makes it easy for you to shop.


You need to have an account to get through, a few clicks, and then...


There are ways on you can pay for your items - credit card, bank deposit or cash on delivery (just make sure you are there when they deliver). Deliver fee costs Php 100 but when you buy worth Php 1,000, delivery fee is free :)

My items arrived 2 days after. It was actually more exciting than buying in malls because you'll have to wait and see how the items will look (and feel) like. No need to worry if it doesn't fit you or so, attached in the packaging is an instruction how you can return the items with terms and conditions.

Here's what was delivered to me :)



The box came  with coupons on your next purchase and an insta-prize entry.



Some tips in buying in Zalora:
1. Know your size. Do not settle with what size is available, skip it and just look for other items.
2. Read reviews on the item, if available, especially if it's your first time.
3. Bulk buy and try to reach Php 1,000 to save for the delivery fee. (But don't force if you're like buying only a few hundreds worth. You might end up buying you do not need.)
4. If you're a couple of hundreds from reaching a thousand, look for items in the beauty section to buy soap, shampoo or anything you used to buy from the grocery (Just like I did) or something you know you can give it as a present later on. I did not force myself to buy something I will not use.
5. Make sure you provide the correct details and there will be someone to receive the items if you are not around.

Buying online saves time and effort and brings more excitement when the items arrive. :)

Happy shopping!

It's a Girl!

Finally after 30 weeks, Lester and I are happy to announce that we are having a baby GIRL! It took that long because we’re the kind of couple who’s obedient to the OB- have ultrasound when needed. Last time we checked, the OB did not confirm Little Javier’s gender though she told us that this little one is most likely a baby girl. Lester was still positive to have a baby boy- he still has 40-30% chance. But hey, it doesn’t matter- after all, we can still make another one :).  It must be the genes- my mom gave birth to 5 children- 4 of us are girls and our youngest is a boy (can you just imagine how Little C feels when he’s at home?). Lester was already dreaming of playing with his little one, teaching how to play PS, bike and all those boy stuff while I was already imagining cooking, baking and doing girly stuff with our little Javier- and I won! I remember when I was still on my first and second trimester, I was so into little things for girls that when I go to the mall’...

Project Hennessy: Gate

Okay, I must admit, I am still lazy to choose photos for our wedding photo album. These days, I've been spending time surfing the net to do my research on designing our house. Yes, my husband and I have been planning this since last year and finally, we're almost there. I learned a lot from my parents in planning our house. Just last year, 6 months before I got married, my family moved in to a beautiful home not far from our old house and a year before the transfer, I saw how my mom and dad prepared for this milestone. They spent weekends in hardware and home furniture shops and used their free time surfing the net to get ideas designing the house. While Lester and I were in the search of looking for house, my dad introduced me to Houzz.com . It's like a magazine full of house design ideas all over the world. I downloaded the app last year and did a little browsing. For a while, I forgot about this app and was busy preparing for our wedding. And time flew so fast, now ...

First Plane Ride

Do you remember the first time you rode the plane? Nowadays, it’s very easy for kids to experience their first plane ride as fares are cheaper. Thanks to budget airlines that once had a vision that every person can ride a plane once in their lives. I took my first plane ride when I was 5 years old. Lucky to experience that young, I was with my mom and my sister when all of us rode the plane for the first time to travel. I had no idea what was this travel is all about, even did not have any knowledge where we’re going. All I knew was that, we’re riding the plane and we were going somewhere far where my dad studied his Master’s degree. Not all kids, during that time, had that chance. And definitely, not all kids had the chance to travel to Europe so I am most thankful to my lola (who’s in US) who gave us this opportunity. Here’s my picture back then. We had a stopover in Hongkong Airport and this innocent kid asked her mom why we were getting down the plane. My mom answered...
