Life Lately 5
September has been a bit hectic, aināt it? I didnāt expect my September to be so busy! I havenāt had a chance to sit down and plan posts, which is something that I usually do. Anyway, hereās a post now and a round up of my September. ALOPECIA AWARENESS September marked Alopecia Awareness Month and so I made a big decision to shave the remainder of my hair off! I didnāt have much left anyway, but there was always this feeling that thatās still my hair and shaving it is a big deal. For once I can actually look in the mirror and not cringe anymore. Itās still a bit…

The Food Diaries // 012
I always find there’s no need to go out and eat Filipino food when I can just get it at home. I actually only visited a Filipino restaurant for the first time in London a few years back – totally worth it; but you’d understand why I don’t need to really go. It’s like for our Christmas lunch at work, my colleague suggested a place called Dutchies that specialises in Jamaican food – again, why? When I get that at my Lola’s every week? Anyway, I digress. Whilst I was in the Philippines, I actually got to meet up with Tiff of The Pandie Explorer for lunch! It was so lovely…

Boracay, You Sexy Beach!
I was reading through some old posts earlier on this week, and I stumbled across a post from 2014 in which I listed the ‘Top 10 Places I’d Like to Visit‘. Whilst I’m far from completing even half of the list, I can proudly say that I have now visited Amsterdam and now, finally, after many years, I’ve visited Boracay. How do I even begin to explain Boracay? That magical little island famous for its white sand beaches and is honestly one of the most relaxing places on Earth. If you’re looking for paradise, well look no further… Day 1 I realised that at this point I had been up early…

Things I Learned This Week // 1
This week went by really quickly! Lots of exciting things happened, and I learned lots of stupid sh*t informative things. Here’s to another good week! 🍷 I get really cranky on Mondays and nap way more often during the day I’m a hoarder when it comes to Time Out and ShortList magazines Most Americans don’t have electric kettles (say what?!) I need to stay away from the Bershka sale The London Underground is my worst nightmare How ah-mazing Magic Mike XXL was How unfit I really am (this was from climbing some damn stairs) London is really polluted. Almost every single London borough failed the air pollution limit for toxic NO2…

I Don’t Know About You…
Now, let’s begin. Well, guys. I made it to the ripe old age of 22, somehow. I’m not even exaggerating when I say it’s been a hell of a year since my 21st. Nevertheless, you live and you learn. I had a really good birthday and it was much more toned down from last year. Must be a sign I’m getting old. I opted for a family dinner with the inclusion of Mutay and another one of my closest friends. We all went to a Filipino restaurant called Lutong Pinoy for a Kamayan dinner. Kamayan means to eat with your hands and that’s exactly what we did. You reserve ahead…
