Vintage Haul
Tuesday, May 3, 2011




 had a very productive day yesterday, cause I've been contemplating with HTML codes, editing my tumblr & not to skip this one:  I was on a mood to"clean/organize" my things. I threw my 10 retired bags to the garbage and the old stuffs that is either broken or has no use anymore. Not to mention It was also the first time I open the drawer of one of my cabinet after how many decades.

        
I thought its just containing old files or things that my mom/dad uses before, But when i'm starting to pick up the things one by one to see what is really inside, I saw a few goodies that I, myself can still use. This are all vintage! about a 10-15 years old. Plus there are things that reminded me of my childhood. So cool!
        
                            white belt with gold buckle
       
        color code labels -- me & my siblings used to stick our books with these when we were in grade school.
      
          They say you're rich when you have this -- big set of Crayola. LOL!
         
             old report cards from grade school of my dear brother/sister. Mine wasn't here .___.

     
                     video cleaner for a good-old VHS! 8D
    
              original vintage sunglasses from 90's
     
        This one is reeeally cute! what a perfect timing it is cause I've been looking for a vintage-"style" bag & here it goes -- original vintage bag! :)
I hope cleaning can be this fun again.

Went to Southmall yesterday. This weather makes us seek the mall more often. Its not practical to just turn on the air conditioner 24/7. Anyways, we brought Gucci with us, He's wearing his diaper-- medium fit. The first time he wore this was its too big for him, now it fits right but it takes off when he's so makulit.

             


             Dinner at Pancake House
            
           
          
          
           This one is funny. Look at Gucci -- he's like a monster or something :)) LOL!
  
           
          

             
        

         

        

         
      
 A cup of Quickly at Starbucks -- no caffeine for me puhleeeeeeease! I'm kind of traumatic cause I became insomniac and I blame sbucks for it. LOL! I was coveting over a starbucks planner then, so I bought 18 cups (for 2 weeks) but of course I didn't drink all of it my goodness! I gave other cups for my friends and the other for myself :)) and tadaaaah! no sleep for months and that was really an abhorrent experience:|

          
      
         
          
btw, take a look at my skin color? Did I get myself a good tan? lol! im so nanggigil to my bebe Gucci :)

P.S. Perhaps you're wondering right now whats the title all about, I just lost my phone out there so yeah another lesson learned & i'll be using cheap phones from now on! >:(

         This entry named as it is because we traveled 2 different places with 2 different climate. (Imagine how hard I tried to fit in my clothes to my baggage-- cold weather clothes & summer clothes! LOL) First was in Baguio, where the weather was 12C. The last time I went here was when I was 7 years old, so I totally missed this place. We arrived there at 10am, stopped over to Burnham park since our cottage was still occupied until 12noon. So we decided to stroll around the vicinity & tried their boats. 

           
              
             

After how many laps of strolling I saw a taho vendor -- selling their most famous 'strawberry taho"

               
                                       YUMMY!

   Next Itinerary was in SM baguio to have lunch. This is the only SM having without air condition. LOL!

           

    
     It also has a balcony where you can view the city.

            

next stop, was Strawberry farm. There are also prods there that isn't strawberry :))

            
        
             
                                            farm girl :))

Climb up to the Lourdes Grotto which has a total of 252 steps, and on the top where you can see Mama Mary shrine. (Of course I made it lol)

             

             

              Minesview was next, Bought here some pasalubongs :)

           

We came across the famous St. Bernard named "Douglas". He's so adorable & HUGE! lol

          

We called it a night so we went back to our cottage & have some rest. The day after, we went to our next destination. Pangasinan :)

               
               
               
                                  we are so excited to swim!
              
                                    on the boat, island hoping 

               
          There are Hundred of island, each island named differently according to what they convey or looks like

            
                                            Alligator island
             
                                               Cathedral island
              
                                             Quezon island

        There are lot more & its totally fun seeing  lots of islands like these. After the day tour, It's time to swim , we chose the Lopez island.

                 

       
                 Also we went to Quezon island for kayaking :) FUN!

          

- Got tan/negra after swimming but I absolutely didn't care about that matter much, cause I really really had a great time. What a witty experience :)

        First time to have lunch at Marriott Hotel last Sunday with family. You see how eating is our favorite hobby. We always try different ones -- especially when it comes to Buffet & Hotel. We tried in Shangrila- Makati & Edsa, Diamond, Sofitel, Peninsula, Bellevue and the latest is in Marriott Hotel. We arrived at 11pm and try to captured different spots in the Hotel, their restroom is my favorite part, reminded me when I was in Hongkong. I covet that restroom should have a "re-touch" portion just like this one where you can seat in solitary and modify yourself with make-ups. LOL!

                   



           





Buffet starts at exactly 12 noon. As usual I tried salad, soup for appetizers, also some sushi & sashimi but not much so I can try different other dishes.

                 
                                            Halo-halo station


                
                                         Fruit shake & bev


              
                                           Ice cream station


             
                                         fondue station


           
                                   Dessert station


            
                                seafoods (haven't tried this :X)


there are lot more of stations with different dishes but I cannot take all for pictures because its prohibited. I am such a pasaway XD

                  


                                with Italitan vinegrette dressing
        
                 


             

The main course was next, got myself a Rib eye steak, Seafood Kebab, Lamb steak, roasted chicken, prawns and my favorite -- LECHON!


              


          


           




              My stomach is already full, I regret that I haven't tried the mini shabu-shabu, Peking Duck, different flavors of pizza, pasta and lot more. I'd go for dessert to ease the "umay".

             


           


          

                            dark choco ice cream
                    
            
                                        ako na matakaw!
           


     Verdict: Marriott Cafe ranks 2 on my buffet restaurant list ;)
