On Heat...

The sun is blazing hot again. Its summer in the Philippines. Just today, it is so hot even if an eclipse happened in the morning. Even the partial sunlight doesn't diminish the heat of the day.
But everyone in the Philippines love summer. It is the season where everyone likes to hang out in the beach, or go somewhere north to experience a colder day. But no matter how we wanted to celebrate the season, this is a special time for us to bond with families and friends.
There's a lot of places to see in the area in summer. Some will go to the local beaches as these are cheaper compared with the most popular ones. Beside, the feeling is just the same when you're out there in the water.
But some will just stay at home to have their own siestas or gathering, they can make their own retreat. It is more exclusive and fun. All you have to prepare are light snacks and it will all be a fun filled day.
Others opt to just roam around the mall just to stay cool. A simple meal with the family is just as exciting as going out of town for some. Others will go on a road trip.
But no matter how you celebrate the summer season, what is constant is that you are celebrating it with your love ones. Foods to eat and places to see are just secondary, this time is a time well spent for our families. And what way we can be happier, if we are to share it with those we love the most.
Enjoy the season but don't forget to take care of yourself and your families.

The L shaped Sofa

An L shape sofa is a sofa that is literally designed in the shape of an L. It is designed like this for a number of reasons, and is a great choice for many different kinds of living rooms. Many people are buying L shaped sofas these days, in fact, for all of the benefits they offer. So, in case you have not been able to witness these benefits firsthand, here they are! First and foremost, an L shape sofa gives you more actual sitting room than does a regular sofa. Why? Well, because there is simply more of it to sit on! There is the main section (much like a normal couch), then, there is the elbow (a very relaxing spot to sit, I might add..), and the rest of the L on the end...which is usually the size of at least a small loveseat. And since there is so much room on these pieces to sit, you can fit a lot more people onto an L shaped sofa like this than you could on a regular sofa. The next benefit that an L shape sofa gives us is the benefit of being more affordable. Now, at this, you ...

For this month....

I am so excited to decorate my nest. Its been quite a while since my last blog, maybe because i am so busy for the past few months. Its not just blogging that i missed, also dressing my nest. For this month, i like to see my nest in blue, orange and green, the usual colors that i like. But this month is quite unusual, because i tend to lean on a musculine style, more toned down but colorful as well. Its just that i like to see my nest as subtle as it can be, with minimum decor, restive but colorful as well. Its my character, it defines my style, colorful as always. See how striking the picture is, and its colors...im so excited to use this color palette at home. I also found one big buddha at a local thrift store. Its so beautiful that i was eager to buy when i embraced it. You know the feeling that you are fit to each other, as if you are really meant to be. Thats what i felt when i embraced my new buddha. All in all, i have 16 pieces now at home. I know its an addict...

The Living Room Evolution...

Would you go for a distinct look?... Or something with comfort? Actually, the last pic was my new living room. Though i love the style of my old living room, with my hard wood japanese sofa, it compromise my need for comfort. Honestly, my mother is always complaining that the wood is so hard to sit in and was not too comfty. I bought the japanese sofa last November 2009 because im looking for a japanese themed living room, and voila, i found one and i know its a great deal. Ive been looking for the same kind for so long and this one is I thought perfect for the theme. Unfortunately, and by experience, i cannot last long sitting on the hardwood even if pillows are there for relieve, its just too hard and painful on the butt! So one time when i was in a mall just trying to look for a replacement, i saw this cream sofa made of real wood and leather. It was a perfect choice because it looks like the one in the 4th edition of real home living magazine, the color book which became my inspi...
