One conspicuous thing in me when I go out is, I always wear sunglasses. It's not only for fashion and style purposes but because it is a necessity to my eyes. As much as I love the sun, my eyes hates it. Maybe because I work a lot at night and I have astigmatism. Because of this, I own several pairs of sunglasses of different brands and styles. When it comes to sunglasses, I don’t mind a lot about the brand, my priority is comfort because I have an active lifestyle. I’m a mom, I run, I love going to places so I choose comfortable sunglasses that fits my active life style and gives comfort to my eyes at the same time.  I recently received a new sunglasses from Firmoo.com. Not only that it arrived from the mail exactly five days after they emailed me that it will be shipped soon, they also sent the exact style that I ordered.  No error at all.  Plus, it comes in complete set of sunglasses case, bag, micro-fiber cloth and a screw kit. I have worn it several times and I noted tw

“Letting go doesn't mean giving up... it means moving on. It is one of the hardest things a person can do. Starting at birth, we grasp on to anything we can get our hands on, and hold on as if we will cease to exist when we let go. We feel that letting go is giving up, quitting, and that as we all know is cowardly. But as we grow older we are forced to change our way of thinking. We are forced to realize that letting go means accepting things that cannot be. It means maturing and moving on, no matter how hard you have to fight yourself to do so." ~ Author Unknown ~ 

“Would you like to taste our Paella? I would be honored if you taste our Paella” That is one among the appetizing and delicious offer from one of the exhibitors at the Best Food Forward event . And when I tasted their Paella, I almost forgot my name LOL! Seriously, I tasted a number of great tasting paella but this one is sooo unforgettable!  And so do with all the food we tasted on this event.

This should be a post during the “all about me” week, but I was undecided if I will share this or not.  Until today I was looking for a draft post and accidentally found this untitled draft which is about how I spent my birthday.  Hmn… not a bad draft I thought so I’m sharing it now.  I’m not re-editing, so it will sound like I was talking last week. Also you will find that all photographs are all “dated”.  Here how it goes on my last week writing about my birthday …  As almost everybody know by now, I’m the blogger runner behind the Run! and Keep on Running blog, which if you click that link, you will know how I started my day.  Yep, I started my day the way I started it last year. I run! A morning run is regular for me but I’m putting on extra miles this week because I’m running my first 16K this weekend.  That’s the pros and cons of running on your birthday week.  The pros is it keeps you disciplined and the cons is that you can’t do weird things (which I love to do on my bir

All roads lead to Mall of Asia (MOA) on the night of March 17, 2012.   As expected, there's heavy traffic everywhere.  I read a lot of (online) comments from the usual people who are covering the event every Saturday that they were trapped in traffic for hours and not being able to get a good spot to video or photograph the event and a lot more similar complaints.  Well what could you expect? Aside from the fact that it was the final night and the last chance to witness this spectacular event, it is also the night that this year’s winner will be announced.  More so, it is also the night that the host country, our dear Philippines is presenting their exhibition entry.  Knowing Filipinos, we are very supportive to anything that our country is representing to international competitions/shows, plus! we are all fireworks lovers and everybody is certain that our entry will always be one of the best. And the winner is…. whoops, first let us take a look on the videos of tonight’s entry
