I spent my Tuesday and Wednesday at our bukid where my grand parents from my mother side live.

It has been a routine for us to go to my father's place every fiesta. We spent the whole day there eating and watching celebrities. During the day before the fiesta there's this pageant called Mutya ng Solidbaybay wherein contestants from each barangay along the Solidbaybay compete. After every round of the competition there comes a special number. The celebrity guest who was invited to perform was Neil Coleta. He's more handsome now than the last time I saw him last January during the Batangas City fiesta.

It was really hot the whole afternoon during the fiesta itself 'cause there were so many people plus there's no electric current. I had the chance to watch the basketball game of the celebrities versus the residents of Ilijan. Derek Ramsay was one of the players and he even made my afternoon hotter! He left early because he still have a show in Tagaytay. I didn't finished the game 'cause it's really hot and crowded. I went straight to my tita's place and found out that right after the game the celebrities will be having their merienda there. Lucky me. ;)
12- Carlos Agassi; 4-Andrew Schimmer; 11-Derek Ramsey ;)
These people I'm with had been a part of the showbiz industry before. I don't know if they still do today.   Maybe they had been popular then but I didn't had the chance to watch them because they weren't included in my generation. =))) Left: Andrew Schimmer. I've searched a little bg about him and just knew that he was an indie film actor and a sexy actor. Kfine. Hahaha. He looks really wasted in the picture so as me.  Middle: I don't know him seriously. Mehehe. Sorry :( Right: Mike Magat. I've searched about him too and knew that he was a sexy actor then but now he's focused in his career as a band singer. 

Do you recognize their faces? If yes then we belong in the same generation. :))) These people above had been part of my daily routine as I see them act in some of the tv shows I watch. Left: Carlos Agassi. I was always afraid of him every time he acts on tv 'cause he's always a villain in tv shows. He's not as bad as I thought because he's approachable and funny. He even asked my tita if he can take home some watermelons  and mangoes. ;) Middle: Eric Fructuoso. I guess he looks familiar to you as you catch a glimpse of him in the prime time bida serye "Apoy sa Dagat" every evening in Channel 2. Right: Wendell Ramos. I watched him accidentally once in TV5 show "Kidlat" which was also starred by Derek Ramsey when my grand parents changed the channel just to watch Willie Revillame's show. Hahaha. I never thought I would see him in person accidentally too. He's approachable and talkative too 'cause he had a convo with me and my tita too. 

While I was eating with the celebrities I was beside this woman and at that moment I was thinking if she's one of them or not. Her face was somewhat familiar and was pretty enough to prove that she's an artist too. My tita appeared and said "Shaira, pahiram ng camera mo. Pipicturan ko kayo ng magandang babaeg katabi mo". And so I smiled and thanked her. After the celebrities left I asked my tita who she was and said the girl beside me was one of the Sexbomb dancers, Jacky Rivas. She was there because her husband was one of the celebrity players (I don't know who) and she was 6 months pregnant. Still pretty! 

During the night there were still many shows. We had the access to the back stage like VIPs because my mom's friend is the director of the whole event in the fiesta. There were gay comedians from the comedy bars, there's also this family acrobatic group from PGT who made our night really mind blowing, magicians, bands and many more.

The sexy Showtime dancers and the gay comedians from the comedy bar. I'm sure you know why I put a comic sticker there. Hahaha. 
At the stage itself while watching the Family Aerial Acrobats :) Look how many people watched the event! 
The most awaited guest for the night was the gorgeous Cristine Reyes. Her look in personal isn't different on tv. She sang 2 songs only then left the place.

I really enjoyed the 2-day event! I felt lucky enough to see and interact with famous people again.

First Birthday Celebrant: My cutie patootie cousin Nathan. His party started at 1:00 but still we were late and went at 2:00 pm because I have a busy mom. Though I'm already in my teenage years I still enjoyed the kiddie party. I have lots of pictures with Jollibee but I just can't post it all here. Haha. A separate outfit post here: Pastels and Prints  

April 31 was just another day of planning and preparing for Ica's Debut.
May 1 was an extra special day with my co-bloggers, Rica and Patrice. Here's a post about our raid- Closet Raid at Rica's

Second Birthday celebrant: My kuya Aerolle. A simple family dinner with some relatives was held then proceeded at mall after. I still don't have any gift for him. Anyway I know what he wants and I'll just buy it if I already have the money. All my savings were now gone because of the Super Sale this May 3-5. I'm really happy with what I bought. No regrets. Haha ;) I love seeing the word SALE! <3
Third Birthday celebrant: My big sister Ate Monique. And because that day was the first day of SM's Super Sale I stayed there for 6 hours. From 3 pm 'til the closing time I was there with my brothers! On the first day of Sale my budget was broke already. I am more of a Sale Shopper! Hihihi. We celebrated Mon's birthday and had our dinner at Kenny Rogers and Yellow Cab with the whole fam plus some relatives.  
Fourth Birthday celebrant: My young looking Lola Moning! :) My day started when my cousin and I went at SM for the 2nd day of Sale. I went with her because she'll be buying something for her debut ;) I got broke again 'cause this dress caught my eye and it just screams "BUY ME". While we were at the Department Store I saw my HS classmate and close friend Lorenze. We had some chit chat and he told me I looked sexier now. Hahahaha. I'm flattered as always! Thanks! While there were still many upcoming events that will happen this May I took advantage of the Sale and bought gifts for the birthday celebrants and of course my mom and tita for Mother's Day. I'm really thoughtful when it comes to giving presents to the persons who are super close to my heart. <3 

We had our dinner with the whole fam plus some relatives again at Prince's Cafe and Restaurant in celebration of my lola's 71st birthday. The birthday celebrant requested me to sing for her and I just can't say  no. :) 
'Le foods during the celebrations. I really don't know why Lorenze told me I looked sexier if I was able to eat all these foods for the whole week. 

I'm now off to an important yet super exciting event. Wish me luck guys! 'Tis my first time! 
Happy Sunday everyone!

Finally! Yes, finally I am now blogging my first ever closet raid experience. I'm with my not-just-former classmates but I'm with my fashion besties. After planning this closet raid since December finally we were able to do it. Hahaha. Hindi kasi mag match ang schedules namin. Thank you Rica for hosting the first closet raid.

What I really love about the experience was that we were able to have our photoshoot ( which was my long time wish) and I'm happy that my first group photoshoot happened with them. It's really good that I belong to this circle of friends where we won't get tired of talking about fashion stuffs and the like. Ang saya lang. Kahit buong araw siguro kami mag-usap about fashion related topics hindi pa rin kami mauubusan ng pag-uusapan sa sunod na araw. That's what I loved about them. We have the same passion. We dream of following the foot steps of the famous fashion bloggers.

Our look before the raid. 

First outfit change: Actually we don't have a theme for our outfits here. Kung ano yung unang makita, GO! :))
More of a SUMMER look. 

Second outfit change: Now we had set a theme for these looks. Go Green theme.
Don't you just love our looks here! Braver, Bolder and FIERCER!
My favorite among all the outfit shots! 

Third outfit change: Candy style awards inspired "Prom Pretty" attire.
My lb sisters went crazy after this shot. They said "Ang gandaaa promise"
At dahil naubusan na ako ng pose...Patrice&Rica: "Tingin sa shoes".

Last outfit change: Denim
Our last group picture for the day. We're true blue Candy Girls. We can't wait to be featured in the Candy Magazine!

Thank God Rica and I have almost the same body size. I repeat, ALMOST! Hahaha. I fear that Rica's clothes might not fit me. Good thing she has lose tops, bodycon skirt and a stretchable dress that saved me! I also want to acknowledge her universal 5 inch heels which the three of us used.

Next raid will be at Patrice's and I'm excited for it! ;)

What could be more exciting than a Kiddie Party where all you need to do is eat and enjoy! Last Monday my family attended my youngest cousin's 1st birthday party which was held at the newest branch of Jollibee here in Batangas City.
My smile here reminded me of Vern Enciso.
This picture can look more awesome and tumblr-like picture if I am holding more balloons. 
Anyway, I just sneak these balloons while Jollibee was entertaining the kids. :)) Ninja moves.
My favorite shot. Thanks to my youngest brother for making life easier through taking my outfit shots. 

I guess another party will be held later but not a kiddie party anymore. My brother just turned 13 today! Happy Birthday Aerolle

Wait, how was my blog's new look? My new template and layout? I cannot do this without the help of the two Ricas ;) my lb sister and cousin. Coincidence? :)
