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 ...

Make Me Home No.4

Welcome to Make me Home edition 4. Weve been doing the dining, living and kitchen already and i guess its proper to feature a bedroom as well. This time, i want to feature a bedroom which is so typical to a filipino setting where the bedroom is shared by siblings. It is a common fact that due to limited space and budget, room sharing is an option to a modest family. Though privacy may be a little bit of a problem when sharing a space, intimacy and healthy relationships can be strengthen by sharing a room with someone who are dear to us. This room may be bit of a challenge for me. When i saw the room, i thought, a bed with a pull out will definitely solve the small space problem. But, its kinda ackward for someone to sleep on the pull out right? In fact, sleeping in a pull out is just an option for a sleep overs. It will be greater and even righteous to give a bed to everyone so they can have a space of their own. So i envisioned a "chic retreat style" for th...

La Residencia Almar...my home in Dumaguete

This is La Residencia Almar in Dumaguete City where i stayed for six nights. Actually, this is my second time to stay in this hotel because i was here last year. I opted to stay again in this hotel because i love the view in its front and it is smaller than the usual hotel located in Dumaguete. In front of the hotel is the famous Dumaguete Boulevard where a lot of people, local and tourist gather every morning and at night to see the majestic view of the sea. But what makes me desire to stay once again is tits beautiful interior, a Balinese theme which i always love in every home. The nice lighting fixture greeted me as I enter the hotel. This is spectacular especially at night. I love the simple but colorful detail at the base of the chandelier. The nuetral paint, with mostly beige, white and brown accentuated by several niches where an old jars are kept in display, trimmings and wooden pieces makes me think that I am in an old world retreat but nev...
