Eat, Pray, and....Shop? Pt. 2

Arggghhh..sorry for the delay in posting this, got lazy busy for the past few days. So now that it's weekend, everything kind of winds down a bit, finally I got a chance to post the second part of my Thanksgiving weekend recap =)

That Saturday my family and I went to Lancaster. Main reasons going there were to see the Sight & Sound Theater production "Miracle of Christmas" and the infamous smorgasbord buffet --yumminess =p, but we got there early so we went to Tanger outlet and spent couple hours there before heading to the show which started at 4:15pm.

The venue was beautiful! huge...parking lot..very well organized, unlike *cough..cough Old Navy..cough experience..

Eat, Pray, and....Shop? Pt. 1

Happy Thanksgiving!

What are you thankful for?

We often hear that question being repeatedly asked during Thanksgiving Holiday. For me personally, Thanksgiving serves as a reminder for me not to take anything for granted. Not only tangible stuff but even intangible ones we ought to be grateful for, like quality moments with your loved ones, forgiveness, love, etc.

So, this past Thanksgiving weekend was a really fun one for me. Of course, like many other people in the US, I had a very nice dinner with my family and by that I meant both of my immediate and extended "family". So on Thursday my fam and I went to Thanksgiving service at church and like they always do year after year, we had a sumptuous meal set up at the end of the service.

Wedding Trailer

yes. i am currently obsessed with wedding video trailers, SDE (Same Day Edit), and stuff. there are so many creative and talented videographers out there and i particularly like those from asia and australia. they are soooo goood. haha.  i know its so random, but just by watching all these videos-eventhough these couples are strangers to me, i was touched by the way the videographers captured their moments, their emotions, and their stories. its so heartwarming.

among all videos i've come across so far, these two videos are currently my 1st and 2nd most favorite. the people over at Mayad Studios of the Philippines are responsible for creating such masterpieces. all credits belong to them. coincidentally (or maybe not), they were both taken at Bvlgari resorts, Bali. such a beautiful place for a destination wedding. these videos really show the breathtaking and gorgeous scenery from one dreamy and exotic island. i was really left in awe after watching them. go ahead and see it for yourself. i dare you not to be left speechless.

Making a Comeback

Oh wow..what can i say..its been a year. wait, actually its been 2 years since i blogged. i know2, i said i was gonna do this seriously, but for one and many other reasons, i failed to follow up on my commitment.

so, just to kinda summarize the gap between my last posting and this one, i spent the year of 2010 dealing with projects, internship, trying to finish up my school, and work. 2010 for me was quite a roller coaster, one of the highlights of the year was definitely my first ever Europe trip! im gonna do a separate post on that later.

and.  .I finally graduated this year!

Gravity

i'm glad that gravity still exists. no..its not that gravity..thats not the one im talking about here. gravity here is the only power that could keep me grounded when i started floating with no clear direction. or when i seemed to forget where i belong and what my true purpose is in this world.

Believe it or not,doing the same thing over and over again (like going thru your daily routines) could eventually lead you to become unfazed and oblivious to things surrounding you..  like you no longer appreciate small things in your life.....but right at this very moment i feel the gravity displaying its power. I suddenly realize things that ive become ignorant of before. now everything comes back to me one by one and they've played before me like a slideshow in a loop.

i understand know.. i do..

and it's all thanks to you the master of the universe

yo quiero a ti, que hace el sol a bailar.
