My Expeirence

I have only been to 3 shops until I found the right dress.

Shop 1:  Vanila Wedding Studio 

It was an amazing experience! It was the first wedding shop and the best!
I came in and I was welcomed and greeted in a very friendly way, I sat down waiting while drinking their amazing cappuccino, I felt so comfortable and welcomed. Only a few minutes later, I entered the fitting room and it looked beautiful! It was spacious and comfortable for me and my two friends. I was basically treated like a bride, I got my privacy and I was given the chance to try on as many dresses as I wanted and I didn't feel bothered or uncomfortable at all. I loved all the dresses, they were all so beautiful and budget friendly. I chose a dress that made me feel like all this was a fairytale, but wait that's only because I was so excited for my first time in a wedding shop, they had great dresses but most of their dresses were simple and elegant and I was looking for something a little more fancy but I still kept the dress in storage just because it was so amazing I didn't think I would find better. 

Shop 2:  Frost

I came in the door and the dresses were amazing! I was greeted by a friendly Filipino lady and I liked her welcoming smile. I walked around and a chose a few dresses to fit in. I went in the fitting room and it was a mess! My mood got a little cranky because I had an appointment and their job was to get things ready for me and make me "feel" like a bride. I tried to keep that smile on my face while talking to the manager and set up things together. BUT THEN, I had to actually try on the dresses and I felt really really uncomfortable! All the ladies working there came in the tiny and messy fitting room with and I felt really embarrassed and awkward since I had to pulled out and in the dresses each time with all of them in there staring, agh it was awful and I couldn't handle one more second in there and I started having negative thought about all their dresses. I tried two awful dresses then I left. I was disappointed because I had already chosen the dresses I wanted to try on but I didn't get to try any one of them because "they wanted me to try something else".  Also, the dresses were pricey and way over my budget.

Shop 3: Esposa

Lovely! From the second I entered I noticed that the place was so high class and I thought that I wouldn't find a dress with the budget that I set! But surprisingly I was greeted by lovely ladies and we had sat down and had a lovely chat about the dresses and all, and I had to fill i the paper and write down my budget, the style of dress that I like and etc. Then we went upstairs and the place was so comfy, quiet, and just so high class! I tried on different dresses and they were all lovely so it was really really hard for me to choose the right dress, But in the end I did! I ordered the dress and had to pay half the price until I received the dress then finish the payment. The dress takes a long time to be delivered though (around 4 months), but everything else was perfect.

Relieve Stress Instantly!



Everybody gets stressed! Being a human being is STRESSFUL!

(Based on my own experience) Here are TEN things that have worked well FOR ME:

Number One:

Easy! Just take DEEP BREATHS!

Number Two:

Stop eating fast! You don't want to stress your digestive system.. IT DOES NOT FEEL GOOD!


Number Three:

Read! Whatever that interests you: a story, a magazine, or even a blog (MY BLOG!)
If you still can't find something interesting, you just must read a Holy book:) take that tip from me, it helps a LOT!


Number Four:

Exercise at least ten minutes each other day. Or 20 minutes only 3 times a week!
If you're too lazy just try exercising for at least a minute each day.. then you'll feel like wanting more!
OR you can even try yoga/ Mindfulness exercises: focusing on your own body, your own thoughts, your own present.


Number Five:

Practice your hobby! I like drawing when I'm stressed, it calms me down, and keeps me patient.


Number Six:

Scream and shout it out!
Shout out loud whatever you want to say to yourself or you could even sing it in a rhythm!


Number Seven:

Talk it out.. Talk to a friend.. or even talk to yourself! (you understand yourself better that's why it always feels good)


Number Eight:

Fake a smile or Fake a laugh.. It actually tricks your mind to make you happy! Be positive and laugh about everything that sounds a bit funny!




Number Nine:

Drink Green Tea! Or Jasmine Tea! They both work perfectly AHH i'll go have one right now!


Number Ten:

Sleep 7-8 hours each day! Adjust a specific time to sleep and wake up exactly the same each day.. and feel the difference!

Ebola Who?




The reason why I'm actually writing about something that we hear everyday is because all I know about “Ebola” is that it reminds me of President Obama's face. I even once thought that it was a bomb!



What is Ebola?

Ebola is a deadly virus that has started in West Africa and it is said that it is powerful enough to kill all the human population. (But that won't happen)

Ebola has started killing people since February 2014 and so far it had killed more than 3000 people and still there is no cure. It basically kills a person's immune system which leads to fever, headache, muscle pain, and even internal bleeding. The US government is helping to find a cure to this deadly virus in different ways.

How did Ebola start to spread?

People believe that only one person was infected and then passed it to another. This one person could have caught a disease from a forest animal, and this is by eating bush meat (it is the meat of wild forest animals in Africa like bats, birds, and even monkeys!). WHY ARE THEY KILLING MONKEYS FOR FOOD ='( I'D RATHER DIE HUNGRY!

Is it True?


Some other people think that Ebola is a conspiracy(an evil plan) made by the US government so they'd convince the citizens of Africa to take poisonous vaccines and after they all die, the US would take over Africa and all its goods. WOULD YOU BELIEVE THAT? I personally don't believe this sh** because the US government is putting so much effort to help cure the patients of Ebola.

Voices in My Head!


You hear those voices in your head?
Haven't you ever asked yourself what is responsible of them?
Don't they sometimes bother you?
Personally, I find them annoying... but they sometimes get me laughing all by myself making other people's little voices say “That sick bit**”

Those voices in our head come from our memory (obviously)
they're called “Sound Memories”


For example:

Say that sentence out loud then say it again in your head:

“Mommy! Mommy! I found a little bug!”

Isn't the sentence you said out loud familiar to how you said it in your mind? It's all part of our memory.

I'll sum it up this way: our brain acquires language and after that it practices it all the time.

One research says: “The human auditory system is capable of 'replaying' sound memories, which is what happens whenever you think of any sound you've heard, including when you "say" something in your head.”

but sometimes there are two voices, or even more!
There are still a lot of research going around this topic but after reading few researches online I figured out that because those two voices are always arguing with themselves (ps. All the voices are you speaking), they definitely mean that we tend to have internal conflicts to figure things out. Human beings are known to be very curious creatures, so we tend to ask ourselves so many questions (whatever subject it was about).


I used to think that one voice was the angel telling me something and the other voice came from the devil.. since they're usually positive and negative thoughts. But after I researched I actually got convinced that it was just me arguing with myself.
