Royal Wedding: Prince William and Kate Middleton

It's as if time stopped, everybody in the office was watching CNN's coverage of the Royal Wedding. Everybody gasped and sighed at the appearance of David and Victoria Beckham, Prince William and Prince Harry and finally, Kate Middleton in Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen. If only Alexander McQueen were alive, he would've been the designer.

Posh Spice lives up to her name - very posh indeed.

I'm sure in the years to come, the names Kate, Catherine, Elizabeth, William, Lois will be very popular amongst new borne babies. Just like the year when Prince Charles and Dianna were wed. I for one was named after Princess Dianna and so were three of my classmates in a class of forty students.

I love Kate's gown - very flattering to her figure. I wish the veil was a bit longer though but very chic.

Nostalgic moment during the ceremony: I envy Kate Middleton, at least her father was able to walk her down the aisle. If I get married, who would walk me down the aisle? :(

Fantastic video angles from CNN.

As they were saying their vows

The priest bound their hands...

OT not because of work but because I'm watching the Royal Wedding - shhhhh :)

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

How stuff works: Piso Bid anyone?

First of all, I am in no way, related to the owners of Pisobid.com at present (it's a small world after all) and I'm writing this blog because I like to analyze and figure out how things work :) I was reading through my Ymail when I saw this ad for Pisobid.com. The name caught my attention and all that was running through my mind was the thrill of bidding - Ebay alert hihihi. When the website opened, I saw that there were a lot of gadgets up for grabs, among the lot was an iPhone 4 which I really wanted but didn't have the heart to spend Php 40,000 for a cellphone. Upon closer inspection, they are giving away ipads, LV bags and GCs. Hmmmmm.... let's give it a try! I never did like reading instructions and policy agreements so I just purchased a 35 bids for Php 500 so that I can start bidding. It's actually pretty easy to bid, all it takes is a click of a button, money is gone. HAHAHA In the pisobid, you actually use real money to buy bid, in this case, 1 bid ...

Ironic Cafe Monaco

Tucked in one of the building along Banawe is a quaint restaurant called Cafe Monaco. From the outside, the interiors looked cozy and perfect for hanging out with friends but I was quite surprised when I stepped inside to find out that most tables were occupied by families. And people actually are willing to wait for their turn to be seated! Kudos for that. My basis for choosing a restaurant is based on the line/wait. If the line is long or the waiting list is long, then it must be worth trying. We ate dinner at this restaurant yesterday evening and I actually loved it! It's a bit weird though that the name of the restaurant is Cafe Monaco but they serve a lot of Korean dishes. My aunt said that the owner of the place married a Korean hence the menu with Korean dishes. We tried bibimbap and at first bite, it was okay but the more you chew the better it gets. Healthy too, with little meat in the dish. Prices are friendly on the pocket too so I will definitely go back to try out thei...
