Cintai

My family decided to go out of town last month and we all agreed to go to batangas because that's the farthest I can drive (friend trips are a different story) My lola discovered this place on television called "Cintai by Corritos Garden" I am not surprised that she did, because she never really go out and away from her room and television. It was featured in one of her favorite shows and she suggested it to us right after she saw it.

Cintai is an indonesian word for love. I heard that they built this place for the memories of their mother. The place was huge. It has 2 pavilions that caters events and 18 huge villas. We checked in at their executive villa because it is away from other villas, we wanted a peaceful stay, and it has a private Jacuzzi with a bar. Staying at their other villas isn't an issue at all. Especially with their place that is not yet commercialize, crowd is not going to be a problem. The owners are accommodating, they will give you personal butlers to send your meal at your villa if you requested. The executive room is nice. Its quite expensive but all worth it. I loved their bathroom and the aroma scent they used in the room. I actually searched for the scent in the mall when we got home.

We strolled around the whole garden and I was impressed by the architecture and sculpture around. Most of their walls are engraved and carved perfectly plus there are animals roaming around. I seriously thought I was in thailand/indonesia for a second! I really felt the culture.

I wish I could post everything up here but I think its better if you see it for yourself. Go check their site here www.coritosgarden.com

Red Socks Pugie

You are absolutely right. Red Socks Pugie is a song by Foals. If you don't know Foals and you love english indie rock music then you have to listen to them. They're amazing. This band is one of those artists that you probably hear when you walk inside any Topman store around the world. Foals never miss to be a part of their store playlists, and I think that's a good thing.

I uploaded a new look on lookbook and I have to say that this is my favorite so far. It's the type of look that I am most comfortable with. A simple long plaid shirt (Topman), a carrot khaki pants (Topman) and my infamous "mcby" boots (Topman). Yes. My boots has a name and it was named after me.

I got my boots as a gift from my aunt in london. I was glad to see that she got me a perfect pair of boots but not surprise at all that she got me the best one. I always knew that she has a good taste when it comes to fashion. Part of my-sense-of-style I learned from her.

Ready To Start

I am a sucker for suits. Most of my suits are tailor-made suits or I call everyday-suit. I always have a hard time looking for a great casual suit that will fit my physique so I stick with custom made ones. I look for fabrics that are very cheap in price but at the same time has a classy quality on it and it's up to my tailor to give it a polished look. He never fails to create me a great suit that helps me look sharp and chic.

360

Today marks the beginning of many things for me. I always thought of not making it but I look at myself now and I'm finally done with school.

Going on to this course has always been an issue. Ditching my graduation has always been an issue too. I always tell them that I am an undercover nursing student and that I am not attending my graduation because of it is just an undercover. It is always easy that way than making people understand the real reason why.

I've been to three schools, four and a half batch and numbers of tutorials. I was able to see some sides of different people, mentally, physically and financially. Each one of them dreamed to walk on that stage and to graduate. Obviously, it is not my dream. Dream for me is something that you want to achieve and to settle with. Yes, I finished school and this is an achievement and that I am proud of. No, there's no way I will settle on this one so I will still keep on pushing through and I won't end it by just walking on to that stage.

People tells me that it is being selfish. Graduation is one of the greatest gift a parent could have. I agreed. It is one of the many gifts we could give our parents but I am giving it up. I only gave up one gift, there are still a lot of them left. That gives me another motivation to work harder and make them more proud.

I am not trying to prove something here. I am pretty sure people would think that way. Everytime I make a decision people always thought that I am trying to prove something. Thats how my mind works and I am just being myself. This is just a thought of mine. Don't Judge.
