Adventure Days and Hauling: Eating, Drinking and Merrymaking :p

Heya everyone!

Phew. I feel like I've been through a weekend! And it's all because I spent two days for myself just the way I wanted and I couldn't ask for more :)

Let's see how I did :p

Tuesday -- it was a holiday and my brother's been wanting to stop by Megamall for the longest time but since it's so far from us, we never really got the chance to stop by 'til yesterday. He was real pumped and we went out with our mom for an awesome day. Finally, the day that I got to see Payless, Forever 21 and Etude House! (Yes, in that order!)

BUT

It wasn't all that I thought it would be like.

Payless was nice. Shoes were arranged by shoe size but I've noticed that not all shoe styles translate to different sizes =\ My mom was a little bummed 'bout that.

Forever 21? Well it's quite a sight to behold. It was big, very big. I was overwhelmed with all I saw. There is a lot of stuff but there wasn't a lot that I was particularly all amazed with and with those that I saw that were cute or whatever had price tags I could not justify. Why? In the words of my mom, "ang mahirap dito e yung chance na may makapareha ka" (The hard part here is the chance of having the same stuff as other people) And I couldn't have said it better myself.

Etude House was probably my biggest let down. It was small, crampy and all. I expected more stuff but when I got there... neh =\

That's why this was all we got that day

Actually these were all I got that day :))

I got the last one :3

Aaaand I got the last one for this too!

It was actually funny. When I put the ring on, my mom said I shouldn't let go of it with all conviction :))

So that was it for Tuesday. It was really crowded then and the only thing I hated was how the freaking guards didn't know where anything was! Even more frustrating was the fact that even the damn information booth gave us the wrong directions. Not liking that mall very much, I'm afraid =\

So onto Wednesday!

Mai, Luis and I have been wanting to go out for the longest time since we don't really hang out much anymore. So we took advantage of the time to go to MOA :D

And guess what? It absolutely feels like Christmas at one point there :p

I swear it was more beautiful than the pictures make it seem :p

Mai and I got there before Luis did and we just walked around, checking the department store, Marionnaud, window shopping and whatnot 'til we got his text that he was around! We rushed to Sakae Sushi and got in, waiting for him to get there. We each grabbed a plate, stared at it, wishing he'd get there faster. We prayed, prepared our dipping sauce and everything, and when he got there, we were like "we're done praying, we eat, you pray then eat *OM NOM NOM*" Haha!

Look at that... *drools*

Mai

Luis and I

Being vain on the shiny side of the conveyor belt beside me

Trying to show off my necklace :p

My absolute favorite type of sushi -- Sake (salmon) sushi. When they weren't cranking any out, I waited, and waited then I requested for it and some came out. Took the opportunity to grab two plates!

Definitely in love with their green tea. It's absolutely delicious.

The verdict: L-R Luis' plates, Mai's plates and my plates. Luis tasted everything! Mai lost to us by one plate and I totally ate sake sushi 'til I couldn't no more. My faves were that and the kani salad-ish one.

After that, we had to walk... a lot. Haha. We went window shopping s'more. Trying to look for Christmas gifts and all. I finally got to stop by Frostings because of my friend, Sam's recommendation :p

 After about two hours of walking around, we retreated to the food court to sit down. We mostly chatted and I'd break into song and the best part is? We'd all find ourselves singing! HAHA. Totally adorable :)

As the clock struck 6ish, we decided to walk out and head home.

The sight outside was pretty. So many lights celebrating Christmas.

And here's what I ended up with!

But here's what's really mine (the others were gifts). A jewelry organizer (as recommended by Suyen), a Marrionaud powder brush (it was insanely soft for just 250php, totally a bargain), MAC brush cleanser, foot masks (I'm planning to pamper myself later, a spray bottle (so I could travel with some brush cleanser as opposed to lugging a big bottle around. Plus having a spray top saves product) and a panda hat!

And here's what I got from Frostings

Clockwise from upper left: Swiss Chocolate, Smores, Red Velvet and Choco Lava cupcake! The Red Velvet wasn't that brill, sadly, and the Swiss Choco was alright. I gave the other two to my cousins though and they seemed to like it a lot. I'll try those next time :)

And a dorky shot of me in my new hat! It's redundancy I tell you. A panda on a panda! Haha. I've been wearing it around the house a lot :p I'm in love with it. Actually, Luis put it on, then put it on Mai, then the put it on me and said "It looks good on you" I said it didn't but when I looked in the mirror, it did! So I had to have it :p

So that's it for the past two days. Really had quite a blast. Now I have quite a list of things to do for the day:

• Blog
• Wash brushes
• Make some MRL2 reviewers
• Make my second face chart ever (I made my first one and it's pretty :3 I'll show it to you guys on Friday or Saturday *crosses fingers)
• Pamper myself with a face masque, long shower and a foot mask
• Plan my makeup strategy tomorrow
• Pack my makeup kit :)

So there's that!

Hope you're all doing well :)

What do you think of all that went on above? (It's a ton, huh? :p)

Let me know below!

'Til then,

Love muchness,

Ciao!
