9 Smiley Things

                                              
Plain and Prints super cute bracelets. Bought it at Plain and Prints Mall of Asia for less than five    hundred pesos.


This Kate Spade Bracelet was a gift from my BFF. She bought two pieces - one  for me and one my daughter. It was a Christmas gift. You can see the words " Find the silver lining" engraved on the bracelet.


Baked this flourless peanut butter cookies for the first time. It was so yummy according to my daughter and it was gone in just one day!



My daughter loves Italian food - past and pizza. Instead of meat, I put some tuna and chicken hotdog.




I love eating raw mixed nuts. Saw this at Cocogreen in Makati. It cost P345 pesos. When at work and feel hungry, I usually snack a handful before lunchtime.




              Another healthy food I used to add in our fresh fruit and veggies juices or smoothies.




This bracelet I bought in XOXO shop in Southmall, Alabang. Price was so cheap cause there was a buy one take one sale at that time. Bought it for only P250.00. :)



Callos. I bought this at Contis Bakeshop and Restaurant, My husband loves it.



Contis' empanadas have different fillings - chicken, salmon, cheese and tuna. Salmon is my favorite. It costs P20 per piece.


Hongkong and Macau Trip October 2013






                           The entrance going to Disneyland. It was my fist time so I was so excited!


                                This is the way going to the " It;s Small World Ride" Disneyland.



 The Disneyland Parade. I saw almost all of the Disney characters riding in their beautiful floats.




                                                      The big and very nice room was all by myself.

 
 The Galaxy Hotel wherein all of us was booked. It was a very nice five star hotel.


 
 Macau Hotels have a very nice display at their lobbies. This is the wonderful display of colors inside the lobby of our hotel - Galaxy Hotel.



                                  Mickey Mouse was trying to dance with me. It was a lot of fun!


 
  I have fear of heights  or acrophobia. Since I was trying to overcome it, I tried the famous Macau Tower Skywalk X. It was 764 feet high.  My knees were trembling plus the cold winds...ughhh! I will never do it again for sure. I just smiled for the camera to pretend I was ok. When our coach told me to sit and look down...I was not able to do it. Sooooo afraid!



 They were my companion for this trip.We were few about 8 IT Resellers only from the Philippines.



                                      The mouthwatering appetizer at Don Alfonso Restaurant. 



    Inside the Venetian Hotel Macau. There is a man made canal there, when you see the moving   painted "clouds", you will think that it is for real.

I know the posts were already soooo late, but it was only now I find the time to do this (hehehe). I know that to be a better blogger, postings should be updated but well, please bear with me. :) I had the opportunity to be back to Hongkong again and explore Macau for the first time. Thanks for the incentive trip given by Toshiba to its top partners. I was so excited cause I have been to Hongkong four times already but never to HK Disneyland. Anyway, I was like a child again, so happy to see Mickey and Minnie Mouse for the first time. I had also the chance to dance with Mickey Mouse, it was actually an animal dance! (ha!ha!ha!) I am not a good dancer and same goes with Mickey mouse so I think- it was fair! Our first stop was HK Disneyland straight from the Airport. It was arranged to be that way. Anyway, nobody compalined...all were happy and excited! After Disneyland we went to check in to our hotel...hahah I can't remember the name! Anyway, it was a nice four star hotel near so many stalls. HK was so busy even it was already midnight! The next day we traveled to Macau thru ferry. We were checked in to one of the five star hotels in Macau - the Galaxy Hotel. The next day we had a very short business meeting with the Sophos executive and then we tour around the city. We went to Macau Tower and did the Skywalk. We had a very nice dinner at one of the finest Italian restaurant there - Don Alfonso at Grand Lisboa Hotel. I tried to play the slot machine for a while together with a friend but as expected, the casino games are  not for me! Went back to my room and sleep. :)

Phuket May 2013

I had the chance last May of 2013 to visit Phuket again. There was a Sophos Asia Pacific Conference  and I was the lucky one assigned to attend it from our company. :) That is one of the benefits of being in sales, you can travel to other countries, booked in one of the five stars resorts or hotels for free! Anyway, it was a nice break for me. I always love travelling. I liked it though honestly,  sometimes it is so tiring and stressful. Yes, I am beginning to start blogging again....hmmmm...not sure until when but one of my short term goals is to blog once or twice a month, maybe? hehehehe



 Find time to relax a little bit, after the massage. :)



With one of our Corporate Account Managers, Rachel. My travel companion, it was her first time to travel abroad and we had a lot of funny moments together! :)


This was the breathtaking view from our room. We can see the beach which is few minutes walk from Movenpick Resort.

I love what the chef did with the water melon, it was so artistic....lovely!



 During the cocktails night, there were pretty ladies and boys wearing angel and devil costumes!


 A nice photo with Sophos employees and Sophos Partners. 



 We waited for this moment, it was worth the looong wait. Sunset at Phuket Beach is simply amazing!
