<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">De La Salle University - Manila holds its University Week around February annually. Imagine a grander and bigger high school fair with the abundance of bazaars, carnival rides, food stalls and the like! I enjoyed my first University Week as a Lasallian very much not just because of the shopping galore but also because of the <b>Lasallian Enrichment Alternative Program (LEAP)</b>. </span></div>

These are what make Univ Week extra fun and more memorable. Plus, you get to acquire a skill and meet fellow Lasallians! In my case, I picked <b>Fancy Blogging 101. </b>I wanted to meet and know more about blogging and its people so I signed up for this class.

Just like most famous fashion bloggers today, she started at 2009 where the industry broke out. She considers herself lucky in meeting the right people that time. Her blog name "KONICHIWEAR" is inspired by her love for Japanese posts and American style. She explained the basics, do's & don'ts and answered the FAQ's in starting a fashion blog. She also shared savvy and neat tips and tricks in maintaining a blog. You can see more of her talk <a href="http://www.konichiwear.com/2014/02/16/fashion-blogging-101/">here</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Paul, on the other hand, cracked up the audience in his talk. He shared how to take good photos for a fashion blog. I learned a lot from what he shared since I don't consider myself a good photographer (which reminds me, I <i>reallyyyyy</i> need to have my camera fixed because phone photos aren't enough huhu). He finds inspirations in other bloggers like David Guison. He thinks that variation is a big factor in keeping your blog interesting. He says he isn't predictable when it comes to his style. However, he confessed he felt like wearing green for the talk due reasons of green as DLSU's school color. As he jokingly said, he tried to be "<i>sipsip</i>" or a suck-up to us. Haha!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Okay, maybe it's not Friday. But due to the number of backlogs I failed to blog about for the past two weeks and a half, I decided to place all my outfit posts in one!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I wore this on our first day in Baguio. I didn't want frozen tootsies during our entire stay there so I knew my Dr. Martens boots would be my best friend for the weekend - and scarves too! Scarves add that sophisticated touch to your winter outfits and since it's cold back down in the city I took the chance to use them when I went to Baguio.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For extra warmth these leggings were a help! These are the ones I use for training in ice skating which were a bit thicker in the thigh area. I haven't breathed in a 16 degree Celsius atmosphere in a while so I figured this snuggly jacket was a help. I think it's pretty logical for me to wear pink and my heart sunnies because it was Valentine's Day that time. Lol.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> For a "fashionista trekker" peg, I figured the cover up would do the trick. The faded wooden pattern of this cover-up blended in with the environment and atmosphere. I felt warm in these skinny jeans and they're also easy to move around with which diminished the stress of all that walking around the city. </span></div>

I was honored to be a part of her 18 Models since her debut's theme was Fashion Week. The attire was strictly formal. I had a vintage look with the curled updo, doily- inspired trimming and cream color. Props to mommy for an excellent job once again. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For the Valentine weekend this year I spent it in the couch (well, more on the edge of it) watching my friend Michael Martinez compete at the Winter Olympics in Sochi and up in the chilly breeze up in the mountains of Baguio! It was my grandfather's batch's 50th anniversary in the Philippine Military Academy so the weekend was all about family fun and craziness! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This short trip has been a memorable one since we haven't been to Baguio as a family for thirteen years already. It's pretty nostalgic for us because when my cousins and I were little we'd come up to Baguio often since it was my lola's province. Although we didn't do the traditional things we'd do every time we were in Baguio, just the presence of the cold, fresh breeze away from the bulk of the city made us ecstatic about our stay.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hello love month! A couple of days to go before the day of hearts and my plans for this year's Valentine's Day is something I'm really looking forward to! (Nope, it's not a date or anything romantic.) For others it may be a day to spend with your special someone while some look at it as "Single Awareness Day". How ever way you look at it, I hope you don't forget to tell the people you love how much they mean to you, which is why I'm sending my love to all my readers by hosting my second giveaway!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The start of the year's been great since a lot of exciting events have been happening one after the other. Yesterday's event would be my favorite one since I've waited so long for this. After 4</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px;">½ years, the coolest place in town, aka the ice skating rink at SM Megamall's back to its former glory only in a bigger and better spot, this time in the newest wing of SM Megamall called the Fashion Hall! Having said this, SM Megamall is back on the top spot as the biggest mall in the Philippines.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">The ice skating rink is located at the 5th floor of the Mega Fashion Hall. When I say Fashion Hall, I mean many of the high end fashion shops are being put up there, including the country's very first <i>H&M </i>retail store. Majority of the shops are still closed but would be opening soon while others are already launched and ready for service. (I'll have a separate blog post for this, stay tuned!)</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">The old and 'retired' skaters including I, myself were beyond DELIGHTED to hear the news of the rink's comeback. When we were asked to perform for the rink's reopening, I immediately said yes! There were four soloists and two production numbers. My teammates and I truly enjoyed performing on ice again. We danced to Zedd's <i>Stay The Night</i>, Beyoncé's <i>Single Ladies</i>, Steps' <i>5, 6, 7, 8</i>; and Spice Girls' <i>Stop</i>. All these songs reminded us of good memories of the ice skating rink. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">There is no magical place like no other than the rink in Megamall, especially knowing that this is the place where we grew up.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;"> </span></td></tr>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It's that whimsical time of the year in a teenager's high school life! Attending prom is one of the most memorable moments I had in high school. The creative, cheesy promposals; the search for the perfect dress and shoes, the nerves of dancing with your crush.. ooops. I'm found guilty of that, haha! Prom also serves as a good time to interact with your batch mates, form new friendships and practice proper etiquette. Without further ado, I present to you tips on achieving <i>the</i> night to remember.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Dress according to theme.</b> In my humble opinion, I believe your entire look during prom night would be 30% coming from your dress and the other 70% would be from how you wear it. What do I mean by this? Dressing according to theme will be additional prom vibes for you. Why? You'll be more confident in carrying the entire look since you blend in. Make sure to ask your prom committee about your prom's theme so that you won't stand out (in an odd way)! Torn between wearing a cocktail dress and a gown? The length of your gown doesn't matter as long as you're very comfortable with it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Customized vs ready-to-wear</b>. The perks of having customized gowns compared to purchasing ready-to-wear's in most circumstances is that you have higher chances of achieving your dream look for prom since you tell your designer how you want it to look like. Ready-to-wear's, however, saves the hassle and time of getting your dress done plus it also gives you a chance to explore and appreciate different designs in case you're not particular with your gown's details. Whatever you choose, I hope you achieve the look you want! (P.S. If you're interested in having your gown made, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ViktoriaCoutureandDesigns">Viktoria Couture & Designs</a> would happily love to make that dream gown of yours come true!!!!!)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Oopsie Tootsies.</b> You don't need six inch stilettos or Cinderella's glass slippers to dance your prom night away. The key to the perfect prom shoes is to be comfortable in them. If you're worried about towering your date and everyone else, purchase shoes that have a maximum height of 2-3 inches. A tip to shoe shopping? Shop at night, best if it's during weekdays and if your feet are tired! That way, when you try on your shoes, you know how "comfortable" it feels even if your feet are killed from all the standing, walking and dancing.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>The Kilig Factor</b>. P</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">romposals would be a classic for this generation. Today, pairing up for prom isn't just the typical "will-you-be-my-date" question and answer. Promposals are special ways on asking someone to be your date. Some can be cheesy, some can be simple and straight to the point, others may seem like a 'mission impossible' but throws off as a huge success. It's not just the boys that ask girls to prom, girls can do the same too! When someone asks you, be genuine with your answer to his/her invite. When you ask someone out on the other hand, be prepared whatever he/she will answer!</span><br />

<b style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Dates or Mates?</b><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Bringing a date holds a bigger responsibility rather than going stag (no date). This would also mean that you have to let your date know in advance what color of dress you'll be wearing so he'll know what to get for your corsage; vice versa with you getting his boutonniere.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Bringing a date means that you don't and should NOT treat him/her as your personal assistant but see to that person as someone to enjoy the night with. This would also mean an opportunity for you to practice proper manners and good etiquette around the opposite sex. If you choose to go stag, that's no problem either!

Angela's fashion taste also contained the classics and the basics (one reason why we're best friends) so she chose 'LBD' for her theme held at Palladium, Newworld Hotel. It's always a good time with this girl plus other great company who joined her in celebrating her night.</span></div>

Well, not exactly 'cuz I was going through my folders here in the computer and I realized that there are photos that I forgot to blog about that dated way back in September. I guess I was just really busy and pre-occupied with so many things! Oh well!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Food verdict</b>: Sometimes it pays to listen to your cravings but in the end I was a bit disappointed because I realized I could have tried a different dish as steak can be found in most restaurants. Don't get me wrong, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I enjoyed my meal! The steak was juicy and huge (for me) that it made Ysabelly full that I wasn't able to order the Red Velvet or Salty Caramel Shake supposedly for my dessert. I'd love to try the other dishes there next time as something that isn't really common or served in other Italian restaurants. But on the other hand, this resto's a recommendation for new-comers of the new Shangri-La East Wing. The </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Saffron Risotto</i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">'s </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">definitely</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> the highlight of my meal.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Last Christmas break, I gained a new pal named Ysabelly. I met her after eating all that Noche Buena, Christmas day and New Year's eve food preperations. She was also present when I dined in at new restaurants during vacation. She isn't exactly a good friend so this year I have to visit my other friend called the gym to help me get rid of her. (LOL) I think each of us can relate, I mean food IS our guilty pleasure during the break, right? Hahaha! I ate at three new restaurants over the holidays so this is the first out of the Goodie Foodie holiday chronicles. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Let's get crackin'! Ramen is the pride of Japanese cuisine right? My family and I like trying different cuisines so one afternoon we opted for Japanese. <b>Hanamaruken Ramen</b>'s branch in TriNoma is only on its soft opening. The ambience is very much Japanese, even the kind of music you'd hear play in scenes where the Japanese temples are shown? Yep, they're being played there and you'll definitely feel those Japanese vibes.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Earlier today I've been wondering why 2013 flew by so fast.

Whatever the reason is, I'm surprised we're now on the third page in writing a brand new book entitled "2014". Last year was the comeback of my blog after a 7 month hiatus with a new look, name and domain! A summary of my 2013 would be "expecting the unexpected". </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Getting in my dream school (and dream team)</b>. DLSU is a part of my dream universities list and I'm so thankful I got in. I mentioned in my Christmas post that it was a dream of mine to become a cheerleader. I thought this would never come true since I had zero cheer experiene. God makes all things possible and He placed me in a team with great teammates. It is challenging balancing cheerleading and academics but the experience is worth it. The year has been great so far for DLSU Sports and I'm glad it all happened on my rookie year.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Growing up, I learned that Christmas traditions stay the same but there are minor changes</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. As a child, I wrote wish lists of what I wanted for Christmas, and all of what contained there are materialistic wants. As the years go by, the materialistic wants diminish and what I seem to jot down there are the kinds of wishes that could give you happiness more powerful than what things give. </span></div>

This year was kind of different since my cousin Anika moved to the States just a few months ago. Nonetheless everything was still the same. Happy and charismatic cousins, uncles, aunts, parents, brothers. We played games and sang Christmas carols and had Kris Kringle. Of course our </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Noche Buena</i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> wouldn't be complete without my tita's roast beef and turkey. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Oh, there was a twist to the <i>Noche Buena</i> this year. <i>Noche Buena</i> last year's theme was a hat party. This year's theme was "Dream Profession". Since I practically used all my costumes for Halloween this year, I ended with my cheering uniform, also for a good reason. It's been a childhood dream of mine to be a cheerleader and I'm blessed that it came true. My cousins came as a 711 franchise owner, a rapper, a housewife and a pirate; my brothers as an LSGH Airforce dancer and an Iskolar ng Bayan (a student of PISAY); my parents came as a fashion designer and an embalmer; my ninangs came as a prima ballerina and a workoutbuff, my cousin's fiance came as Superman while my two uncles came as a surfer and Batman. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Christmas day is always spent with my relatives from my dad's side. Since my <i>lola</i> has seven other siblings, she and her family take turns in hosting Christmas day celebration every year. This year, we had it at Lolo Jojo's house. We spent Christmas day hanging out, gift giving, etc. We would spend lunch and dinner together and have activities of all sorts including dance off's and games. Sadly, we didn't have that this year.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Christmas this year was fun (I'll blog about that soon!) but I'd have to admit that it took a while before the spirit sank in. It's ironic because here in the Philippines, it</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> is known to have the longest Christmas celebration in the world since it starts on September.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Parol stalls are being set up, Christmas songs are being played at the mall which also means holiday sales or promos. This year ought to be different maybe because of the unfolding series of tragedies this year. However, it does not prevent the Filipinos from celebrating a good Christmas despite the huge amount of loss they had especially from Yolanda.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It may be really far from us having a white Christmas but our days can still be merry and bright! Yes, as early as September, Christmas decorations are being put up in homes already. Another addition to the Christmas spirit would probably be home decor. In the Recasata residence at Quezon City, you'll definitely feel warm, fuzzy feeling of Christmas!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Season's greetings are in every corner of the house of the Recasata's. Gingerbread men, wreaths, snowmen, Santa Claus and other figures are present to welcome visitors with merry cheer! You will definetly feel the spirit of Christmas inside the house. The decorations are collections of the owners over the years. Most of them are from Rustan's, others are from Dapitan and abroad. Dra. Sheila "Gigi" Recasata, one of the owners, says that these are pieces that she has chosen for its uniqueness.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now THIS is a definition of a winter wonderland! I'd love to travel someday and experience a Christmas like this, especially ice skating on a frozen pond! Seeing these decorations reminded me of The Jubilee Express story of "Let It Snow" by John Green, Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle. Some pieces here move (like the ferris wheel and merry go round) and yes, they play Christmas music too.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Of course we shouldn't forget the real meaning of Christmas, which is the birth of Jesus Christ. I like that there's a special corner of the house specially saved for the Nativity. The colorful ornaments of the white Christmas tree make the portraying of Christ's birth extra special. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Even from outside the house you'll think of it as a Christmas home already. You don't need to head over to the Ayala Triangle to watch a magnificent Christmas light show, it's all right here outside the Recasata residence! Son of the owners Neo takes charge of the light synchronization that matches the Christmas songs being played. However, I was not able to snap photos of it because the lights were unavailable. </span><br>
