Gossip Girl Book Series

Hey guys! omg! it's been a long time since I posted a blog here. My last blog was in March this year and it's October. I'm sorry guys, really, i've been busy lately, work mostly. Well, I'm here again. Wink!


Alright, my blog today is about the hit tv series Gossip Girl. I know most of you know that. You know Blake Lively as Serena Van der Woodsen and Leighton Meester as Blair Waldorf, the upper east side of Manhattan's elite. I will not talk about the TV series, this will be about the Book series. I once said before on my previous blogs that I'm a bookworm. I love books! Especially book series. So the Gossip Girl book series is one of my favorite aside from the Clique book series.



I don't usually watch the Gossip Girl tv series. I don't know why. I have watched the first 3 seasons only. I love the book series more than the actual tv series. Let me tell you guys that when people tell you that the book series is better than the tv or movie series, you have to believe them. Take for instance the Harry Potter and Twilight series. I dont read any of those books but most of the people I know like the book series better.



The Gossip Girl book series is way different. For example, they all love to drink and smoke, they have pets, Blair has a brother and baby sister. Eric is older than Serena and Nate really loves marijuana! Chuck was even rumored gay!Haha. It's very wild and very interesting. I really recommend it guys!



So if you are looking for a great book series to read, you gotta grab Gossip Girl! you will be hooked!



This has been Abby saying I heart you and I love Gossip Girl!

Tony and Jackey Salon

Hey guys! How are you all? As for me, I feel so great. Because I just had my hair cut done. My last haircut was like ages ago. Haha. It was last December 2009. So I said to myself, it’s about time. I had my haircut done at Tony and Jackey Salon. It was so amazing. I love the result.

Tony and Jackey is a Korean salon. My hairdresser is Ria, she’s korean. She’s so great, very friendly and accommodating. She’s a real expert. She knows what I want. The haircut at Tony and Jackey is 500Php. Expensive compared to other salons but it’s so worth it. After she did my haircut another Korean girl ironed my hair and its free!! You can straighten or curl your hair after your haircut. Very nice.

I will definitely go back to Tony and Jackey. Here’s a picture of me, Ria and the other Korean girls. Hehe!
This has been Abby saying I heart you and Tony and Jackey!

Much love,
Abby

MUST SEE MOVIE: Red Riding Hood



Hey guys! Good evening. I just got home; I went out with my friends. We went to Greenbelt 3 and watched Red Riding Hood. This is a blog review for the movie.

Obviously, from it’s title, this movie was inspired by the very famous fairy tale, Little Red Riding Hood. Fairy tale inspired movies are really “in” right now, there’s another movie Beauty and the Beast starring Vanessa Hudgens, that’s coming out real soon. I don’t know lately it’s fairy tale all over again. From vampires to fairy tales. Nice!  This movie was produced by Leonardo de Caprio. This movie is from the director of Twilight.

Okay so Amanda Seyfried is the star on this film, she did a pretty good job in this movie. It only gets to show that she’s really a good actress. She also starred in the movies, Jennifer’s Body, Dear John and Letters to Juliet, which she also did a very good job. Her name on this film is Valerie. The setting is, she’s living with her family in a village and she’s in love with this wood cutter named Peter. They were childhood friends. She was engaged to another man, which she didn’t love. Of course this movie will not work if we don’t have the infamous “Werewolf”. There’s a lot of twists in this movie. The werewolf is also living in the village. Valerie can talk with the werewolf.  It was very shocking when the real werewolf was revealed.

The Cast:

Amanda Seyfried as Valerie
Virginia Madsen as Suzette
Billy Burke as Cesaire
Julie Christie as Grandmother
Gary Oldman as Father Solomon
Max Irons as Henry Lazar
Michael Shanks as Adrien Lazar
Christine Willes as Madame Lazar
Michael Hogan as The Reeve
Lukas Haas as Father August


Amanda’s acting here is outstanding, I will not say it’s the best, but it’s something new especially for her as a new actress. It gave her career a different take. She portrayed the role very well. She looks innocent and powerful at the same time on the film. But the ending was sad. That’s all I can say, because I don’t want to spoil it for you. So you better watch it! It’s a good movie. So that’s my take on this fairy tale movie. I’ll talk to you guys on my next blog. Bye!

This has been Abby saying I heart you. Go home and beware of the werewolf!

Much love,
Abby

Disaster in Japan

Hey guys.. sorry I haven’t been blogging for quite sometime now. I’m kinda busy. Okay I feel inspired in blogging today because of what happened to Japan yesterday. It was so scary, devastating and unexpected. What happened to Japan I think was very extreme compared on the previous earthquakes that hit the said country. Japan is immune with tsunamis but the earthquake and tsunami that hit the country yesterday was sick!!! It was a 23 foot tsunami.  

Most countries nowadays experience minimal earthquakes. Yesterday, according to CNN, Japan was attacked by an 8.9 magnitude earthquake followed by an enormous tsunami. News shows the actual video where you can see how the earthquake happened and how the tsunami swept the entire city.

It was really scary, yesterday when I watched the news; it looks like it came from a movie, but no. This is happening for real.
You can read this news post by Malcolm Foster http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110311/ap_on_re_as/as_japan_earthquake so you can get a better picture of what happened yesterday.

The entire city was damaged, all cell cites were broken, cars, houses, trees were everywhere. Hundreds of people died. All means of living were destroyed, rice fields and farms. In just a matter of two minutes, most of the lives were shattered. It was really scary at the same time sad. Most part of the world are experiencing terrorism, in Libya, Egypt, Iraq etc.. and now tsunamis and earthquakes? My mother is in Japan too, I don’t know if she’s fine but I hope she is. We lost contact to her years ago. But may God be with her always.

This should serve as a wake up call to everyone, if you’re affected or not. Let’s think of ways to protect our country. We can never tell what will happen next. We maybe safe for now but we cannot hold the future.

My thoughts and prayers go out for those who were affected by this calamity. Hope all of you are safe and warm. Wherever you are, may God be with you always.

This has been Abby saying I heart you.

much love,

REVIEW: My MAC brush set and ULTA Pretty and Polished 74 Piece Collection

Good morning guys. It’s a Saturday, I just woke up. I feel so awake; I don’t know what to do. Anyway, How are you guys? I hope everything’s doing just fine. Okay, if you read my previous blog, I told you guys that I bought a make up train case online, right? From Guilty Pleasures. I also bought a make up brush set from another online store called Nix FabBotique. Gosh I’m so excited because they’re finally here! And as promised I will make a review about it.

The brush set came in first, it’s a 24 pc. MAC make up brush set. It’s not real though, it’s a replica but it’s good. Oh well, I’m a beginner so even if it’s just a replica that’s perfectly fine because I don’t want to spend a whole lot of money just for a real MAC brush. We all know how expensive MACs are. Anyway, when I got the product, it was sealed to perfection. It’s really big in person compared to their pictures online. The brushes have it’s own plastic so it will be protected. The brushes are stored in a black leather bag so it’s perfect if you are traveling and all that fun stuff. As for the quality, it’s great. Not perfect but it’s great. It’s soft but some of the small hairs are falling down but I think that’s just normal. But overall, the brush set was amazing.


Okay for the best part, the make up train case arrived the following day, I went to the mall with my friends that day, I’m really excited to go home because I want to put my hands on this make up case. It’s ULTA Pretty and Polished 74 Piece Collection in Red. This product is genuine, it’s not a replica, and it’s not fake whatsoever. The color is red so it looks very classy and girly, good for traveling too. I used the make up the next day. For my first make up I opted for a neutral look. Again guys this will be my first time to really do make up for myself and voila!!!! It was amazing. I think I have a career in make up, I really do. Hahaha! Not bad for a first time. As for the eye shadows, the colors are very pigmented and very easy to apply. The lipsticks, eye liners are amazing too. Everything on this box set is great.

I inserted pictures of the brush set and the make up train case. I also inserted my picture of my first neutral look. Haha! So if you want to purchase make up, you can visit their Facebook page, just type, “Guilty Pleasures” and “Nix FabBotique”. Happy shopping!

This has been Abby saying I heart you all! Muah.

Much love,
Abby

Online Make-Up Store in Facebook: "Guilty Pleasures"

Hey guys! Good day! It's my day off, I'm here at our house in Las Piñas. It's very quiet right here, so I feel inspired to do a blog. Okay, so if you can still remember, if you've been reading my blog, I mentioned that I am not a make up person, my everyday make up will be powder, cheek tint and lip gloss that's it. So I was browsing at Facebook the other day and I stumbled upon this online make up store called "Guilty Pleasures". So I got curious and I visited their page. First product that caught my eye was their make up train cases and palettes. I looked at the price and it's very reasonable. I read their wall and there are so many subscriber's comments on their products, how good the service is, how fast the transactions were all that positive feedbacks. 


So I get so excited and I have decided to order one, the very product that caught my eye was the "ULTA Pretty and Polised 74 Piece Collection - Red". it's a train case. It has all the make up essentials that you'll ever need! I mean not all, but if you are a beginner to make up like me, it's definitely a good buy and very practical. It includes 48 eye shadows, an eye shadow quad, 2 dual ended eyeliners, powder, bronzer, 4 blushes, 12 lip colors, 2 full size lipsticks and 2 mini lip glosses. Whoa! that was so amazing right?


This will be my very first major make up purchase and it's from Ulta. Ulta is a world class brand for make up in line with Sephora, Mac, Maybelline, Profusion, NYX, Coastal Scents etc. Ulta also sells hair and skin products, accessories, nail polishes, make up tools, flat irons, curling irons everything than you can possibly need is there in Ulta. We don't have Ulta here in the Philippines. The owner of the online make up store was very polite and very good to deal with, she responded to my questions right away, very trust worthy, and they have all the proof that you need to show that they are really a very reliable business, they have tracking numbers, feedbacks from the customers and all that fun stuff. they also sell perfumes, clothes, bags and many more. You should really visit their page in Facebook. All their products are authentic and from the US. 


The good thing about it was, I told the owner that I can deposit the payment on the "15th" because that's our payday and she said it's okay and she really has a big heart because she shouldered the shipping fee, the shipping fee for me is free! how great is that for a business huh!! So i said thank you for like a million times to her and she said she can really feel my excitement. You bet I am! She said after I deposit the payment i will receive the goods after a day or two. It's very easy and i will definitely buy from them again. I will surely recommend them with my friends.


As soon as I get the product I will try it and i will definitely make a review about it and post it as a blog. I am so excited! I'll talk to you on my next blog guys. Be sure to visit their page at Facebook, just type Guilty Pleasures under the search tab. Bye guys!


This has been Abby saying I heart Guilty Pleasures and I heart you too...


much love,

MUST SEE MOVIE: Season of the Witch



Hey guys! Good morning, it’s my day off! Oh my God, this is my favorite day! Aside from the fact that it’s my day off, this is also a very special day for me because today, February 01, 2011 is me and my partner’s 2nd Year Anniversary! I am so happy, I can’t believe we manage to go through, we’ve been through so many things but we’re still here strong, happy and in love.



Anyway, this blog is about a movie we saw yesterday with my friends at Glorietta 4, it’s “Season of the Witch”. It was a good movie, the effects were great and overall impact was amazing. The lead star is Nicolas Cage, he is a knight. The girl who played as the witch was also scary. Season of the Witch is a 2011 American period action film starring Nicolas Cage and directed by Dominic Sena. Cage stars alongside Ron Perlman as knights who return from the Crusades to find their homeland ruined by the Black Plague. Two church elders accuse a girl (Claire Foy) of being a witch and being responsible for the destruction and command the knights to transport the girl to a monastery so the monks there can lift her curse from the land.
 
We even had a very funny experience at the movie house, there were some elders at the back seat and they were arguing with the usherette  with their seats. We all know that it’s Glorietta so it’s reserved seating right? So long story short, it’s really hard to watch a movie with the elderly. Haha! The movie was great and it has a great twist too. Thumbs up for the Season of the Witch. You should see it yourself.

Much love,
Abby

MUST SEE MOVIE: The Green Hornet

Hey guys! I'm sorry I wasn't able to blog these days. I'm kinda busy. But how are you? Well I just received some bad news, there was a bomb threat here in Metro Manila, a bus exploded earlier this morning, my dad texted me and he warned me to be careful from public places. It was scary, my God, what's happening? Can't we just have a normal life free from these bomb threats. Another sad thing, my previous co-worker at OWWA died from a motorcycle accident. Condolence to his family and friends.


I'm sorry, I'm stressing you out with all these sad news. Okay so the main topic for today's blog is the movie "The Green Hornet". We watched "The Green Hornet" at WalterMart here in Makati. The movie was great, it's directed by Michel Gondry, starring Seth Rogen, Cameron Diaz, Jay Chou and Christop Waltz. I think it was a movie before and they made a film again, but they made it more exciting. The guy who played Kato was super cute.


Playboy Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) becomes the new publisher of Los Angeles' "The Daily Sentinel" after the sudden death of his father. Britt's party life is about to change when he and his driver and kung fu expert, Kato (Jay Chou), stop a robbery. With the help of Kato, Britt starts a new career of fighting crime as the masked superhero "The Green Hornet".


It was an action-comedy type of movie, the effects are awesome. The car in the movie was amazing, more amazing than Bumble Bee in Transformers and it has a name too, "Black Beauty". I attached a picture of the car here. Cameron Diaz was hot in that movie. The fighting scenes were amazing too. I think I used the word "amazing" too much, but I don't care because it was Ah-mazing!!


So, you better watch it, it's great and AMAZING! Thumbs up for "The Green Hornet"
Thanks again guys and please be careful wherever you go.


This has been Abby saying I heart you and I love The Green Hornet.


much love,
Abby

MUST TRY: Krocodile Grille at Greenbelt



Good morning! It’s 10:34 in the morning, I just got home from work. Well I got home at around 9:45, and then I ate my breakfast, it’s one piece chicken and rice which I bought at a convenient store. I was so hungry; I didn’t eat during my lunch at work, so I bought my breakfast before I went straight home. It’s my off by the way! Yey!

Ok, so this blog is again about food. Last Sunday me and my friends went to Greenbelt for lunch. We were thinking where we should it, we went to Glorietta but we can’t decide if we like to eat at Glorietta so long story short we ate at Greenbelt. There’s a restaurant in Greenbelt where we are all been dying to try out for a long time, we just never got the chance to eat there whenever we go to Greenbelt and I don’t know why but last Sunday we actually did, so we had our lunch at this super delicious restaurant “Krocodile Grille”.

The ambiance was okay, nothing special, the food was exquisite. It’s so cheap and the taste was great! We ordered like 6 dishes. We ordered “bake tahong”, “sinigang na hipon”, “kare-kareng baka”, “seafood pasta”, “spicy chicken”,”inihaw na liempo” and “inihaw na pusit”, It was like we’ve been sentenced to death. We were five, Me, Nil, Shai, Princess and Annafe. I love the “bake tahong”, it’s very cheesy. The “sinigang” was ah-mazing, I love the soup, “kare-kare” was the best also, everything! We weren’t able to finish the “seafood pasta” because we were so full.

The service was great too, they gave us complimentary crackers while we were waiting for our food, the food was served fast unlike some restaurants that you have to wait like forever, and you will probably die because of hunger before the food is even ready. So I will give Krocodile Grille a “10”. Good job!

So if you will be going to Greenbelt, this is definitely a must try! I don’t know if they have other branches but I’m pretty sure they do. So there!  Tell me if you love the restaurant, post it as a comment below, talk to you guys later bye!

The Act of Forgiveness

Hey guys! How are you, I hope you’re doing well. This blog will be kind of different because this is a serious topic. Forgiveness. When should you forgive a person? How can you ask yourself to forgive that person? How can you tell that you’re ready to forgive? Why is it hard to forgive?


According to Wikipedia,  Forgiveness is typically defined as the process of concluding resentment, indignation or anger as a result of a perceived offense, difference or mistake, and/or ceasing to demand punishment or restitution. The Oxford English Dictionary defines forgiveness as 'to grant free pardon and to give up all claim on account of an offense or debt'. The concept and benefits of forgiveness have been explored in religious thought, the social sciences and medicine. Forgiveness may be considered simply in terms of the person who forgives including forgiving themselves, in terms of the person forgiven and/or in terms of the relationship between the forgiver and the person forgiven.

In a relationship, you will experience hardships and problems. It’s not always joy and happiness. There will be times when you will go on a rough patch together. Sometimes, just one mistake can change your life forever. When you hurt the person you love, it will cause hate, anger, pain and sadness. A sadness that will envelop your life and eventually make your life miserable. It’s hard to ask for forgiveness if you are the cause of someone’s pain. But it’s hard to forgive if you’re hurt and betrayed. How can someone ask for forgiveness? When someone you care the most hurts you, it’s really hard to forgive. You want to look for ways to revenge and hurt that person.  But the question is, are you going to be happy after?

Forgiveness is generally a decision to let go of the pain, resentment and thoughts of revenge. What are the benefits of forgiveness? According to Dr. Katherine Piderman Ph.D, Letting go of grudges and bitterness makes way for compassion, kindness and peace. Forgiveness can lead to:
§         Healthier relationships
§       Greater spiritual and psychological well-being
§       Less stress and hostility
§        Lower blood pressure
§        Fewer symptoms of depression, anxiety and chronic pain
§        Lower risk of alcohol and substance abuse

If you’re the person who asks for forgiveness, sort your thoughts. Analyze your mistakes. Admit it and look for ways to correct it. It’s not easy to ask for forgiveness, it takes all the courage to admit your mistakes. Be sincere; don’t ask for forgiveness if you don’t mean it.

If you’re the person who experienced pain and sadness learn to forgive. If you’re unforgiving you may pay the price repeatedly by bringing anger and problems on your next relationships. People may think that you don’t listen. You may lose your friends and it’s unhealthy. It’s hard to forgive yes, but after you forgive someone eventually you will feel better, forgiving someone doesn’t mean that you deny the other person’s responsibility of hurting you, it will bring you peace that will help you go on with your life.

So what I’m trying to say here is if you are in a relationship, be open with each other. Talk and communicate, that’s the most important factor of a relationship. If you don’t talk and share you’re feelings it will cause a lot of pain after. You have to talk about your problems and work together to fix it. Love one another. Be honest. It’s not just the best policy but it will help you earn someone’s trust.



Forgiveness is not something we do for other people, we do it for ourselves - to get well and move on.

Thank you again for reading my blog.
This has been Abby saying I heart you and I forgive you all!! Adios!
 
Much love,
Abby

Movies to Watch Out for 2011! :)

Holla! hey guys..I just got home from work..I'm so tired but I'm doing good..So how are you guys? I hope you're okay.. So i'm here again doing another blog. I have a question for you, do you love watching movies??? Well, who doesn't?! Ha! Me, I love movies, I'm a big sucker for movies too, watching a good movie once in a while will not hurt you. If you're stressed, it's a good way to ease your mind, watching a "feel good" movie is a big help.


For instance, the award-winning movie "A Walk to Remember", a book written by the ever famous author Nicholas Sparks. I'm sure most of you shed a bagful of tears when you watched this movie. I watched this movie for like a hundred times but I still love it, until now every time I watch it it's really impossible for me not to cry. It's a very romantic, heart-breaking, touching and classic movie. Most of Nicholas Sparks' novels are heart-breaking and I don't know if you notice this, most of the main characters die in the end, like Jamie Sullivan in "A Walk to Remember" and the movie "The Notebook". right? but all of his novels are really touching and very moving. I love "The Notebook" too. 

I heard that his other book "Safe Heaven" is also a must read. So you can include that on your Must-Read books.
So going back to our main topic, do you have any hints about the movies that will be released this year? Well I do, I checked this website http://www.trailershut.com/ and I found my answers, it will practically show you all the movies for 2011! Just click on each month and you will see the movies that will be released for that particular month. It's cool, you can check it out if you want.

I'm not a big fan of Twilight, I don't know, I'm just not into vampires. When I watched New Moon, I literally fell asleep. hahaha! Before, I don't like Harry Potter too, but I saw it and it's good. It's not the best but it's tolerable than Twilight. Peace guys that's just my opinion ok?

I will be highlighting some of the movies that I think will make your top list. (I got the summary of the movies in the website too.)
