Kpop Friday: Shampoo by AfterSchool

Image
Happy Friday!  Okay last week I talked about Afterschool Red's song In the night sky. The K-pop song I'll be featuring now is called Shampoo.  If you look at the English translation of this song its actually not mentioning the exact word shampoo..okay maybe once, but when you go deeper into the song you will see that it is about. It has that princess-like feel if you listen to it. This is a teeny-bopper for me if you ask me. It basically reminds me of Secret's Starlight Moonlight without the cheesy lines haha!  My over all verdict for this song is its a great tune to listen to feel good and have that "in love" feeling.  Here is the English translations taken from Kpopsubber from youtube I want to become shampoo, flowing down your hair I want to cover you with my thick scent If you used to like other scents, erase them now I’ll make you drunk with all the scents in the world that don’t exist If you, star-star-star, ever make me sad I’ll make your eyes

Guess where I too this picture and I'll give you girls a special prize ^0^ Ola!  Sorry I have not been updating this page again. Due to busy schedule and Pedring I wasn't able to post lately but any who I am back! haha!  In case you girls missed out on my tweets last week I was invited to the Dollface Seminar held in Purebeauty in Serendra. It has been a while since I visited Serendra. I previously worked in a call center just adjacent of Serenedra.  When I saw the message on Facebook regarding the invite I was like  OHMAYGAWD!!!!!! LOL  its close to that, but you get the picture.  Then that day, I woke up super early because I know even if its Saturday here in Manila the public transportation will still bitch me out. Yeah I said it, transportation here in the Philippines is a bitch if you don't get the flow of it haha! I'll do another post about this on my Travel Blog .    So I left the house at exactly 8:45am but you know what time I got to Serendra? 10:05

Kpop Fridays: After School Red's In the night sky

Image
credits to asiatorrents.com Ola Ladies!  Friday has arrived again! Any plans for this weekend?  I hope you girls have fun this weekend!  Okay if you follow me on twitter ( www.twitter.com/#!/ytphotoescape ) I have posted several times my hashtags to what I am currently listening to, I've actually mentioned this song several times and also listened to it.  credits to google.com Its a song from After School Red called "In the night sky"  The song is basically about a girl telling a guy to stop bothering her. I really love this MV of this song too because it has a....rustic feel to it. Concept for this the MV is actually a mix of American-Indian and Western look. I especially love that their concept is really good because its sexy but not too much. They did become a bit mature with this look but they still look cute because of the dance steps :) I also love the dance steps because its very easy to follow. I am not a good dancer and I know that for a fact! :))

Getting Slimmer for the Better + Updates

Image
From my confession post :) I have been overweight ever since I stepped into high school. It must be because of the hormones and genes that I have. I have experienced to be slim and I like it, but its very hard to maintain it because you really have to restrain yourself from what your taste buds really like.  This was me 2 years ago I admit I’ve let myself go to eat anything I want to. I kind of feel bad about it because the consequence is tough. I had to face a lot of criticism and also the teasing that comes with it. Now I am back on track to be a healthier person. I still eat the food that I love, but I take it in moderation. I also have a rule about eating junk food, if I drank a glass of soda now that will be the only soda intake I will have for the week. I drink more water now since its better.  This is me last May Besides from choosing healthier eating habits, I also try to be more active in moving. I would actually take the longer route on my way home s

Hey Ladies!  How have you been?  Here's another tag post and I was tagged by Glenn of Gencified to do this tag post.

Your most beautiful post? Answer: Can you survive a day without any make up? I actually chose this because you can see in the pictures that I am wearing totally no make up.

I guess people were curious to see what crazy thing I am going to do next haha! 3. Your most controversial post? Answer: Korean music and sexism with female perform

"Fall" has arrived in Manila!!!!

Technically speaking, Philippines only has 2 seasons - Rainy and Sunny. but that doesn't mean we don't have a gray area right? It has been pretty windy lately and chilly. There were some rain showers, but not really a storm.  One of my gay friends told me that Fall or autumn has arrived and I laughed at the thought. I have lived for a 22 years and never did I experienced Autumn and Winter in this country.  So why did I say on the title that Fall has arrived? well for one, the atmosphere in my daily routine has changed. Usually it is bright and warm, but nowadays it has been a bit gloomy. And since the BER months have started, almost every one is now beginning to refresh their playlists with some Christmas tunes. I know my mom has! She has been playing the same set of Christmas carols tapes over and over again for the past 2 weeks! It can be annoying at times but you'll get used to it. Also fall fashion has been coming out lately.  I've noticed girls wearing longer

A great way to start the week! :)

Message of dollface cosmetics in my facebook account Happy Monday Ladies!  How was your weekend?  I had fun on my weekend!

But since I was already picked by Dollface cosmetics, she went and picked another winner thru random.org  OMG you can't believe how shocked I was when I got the message.

Kpop Fridays: Korean Make up Routine

Image
Have you ever wondered how Korean girls' skin   look so good that you would think they don't have make up on? That's where you are wrong sister! They do have make up on! :)) Its all in proper skin care and also make up application!  I got these information partly from Google and also my Korean students. I also learned that it takes them approximately 20 minutes to apply make up. My first reaction was "Huwaaat!?!" but its really true. According to one of my students, one thing to achieve that "no make up look" for them is to simply take your time in applying your make up and also have a good base. Here is the usual method that they do in applying make up   Preparation: Primer + make-up base -- This is to correct your skin tone  + Foundation (or BB cream) + Conceal imperfection -- concealer (but if you have applied BB Cream I think you can skip this step) + Setting: Set and fix foundation with powder or pact -- By the way pact is a shorter term fo

Chuseok Weekend + Crazy Little Thing Called Love + Mario Maurer and Pimchanok Luewisedpaiboon

Hello everyone!  I am back and I'm back with a revenge! Joking :P How has your week been so far? For me its a little bit great since I had a very very long weekend because of Chuseok!  If you don't know Chuseok, its a Korean holiday that is commonly celebrates the end of the fall/autumn harvest season. Its like a harvest moon festival. And since I work for a Korean company, I don't have work last Monday and Tuesday! yey! But the sad news is that I am not paid on those days :'( but any who I was able to enjoy it and also got my energy back for work! ^_^ And since I was on vacation for like 4 days, I got to enjoy a movie marathon with a little thank you from Youtube and also my DVD collection.   For some reason I have been hooked by films that are from Thailand. The first movie I got hooked was sick nurses. This film is a horror film which was a score since I'm the only one brave enough to watch it haha!  The second Thai film that I watched was actually a romant

Splash Mountain Experience + Weekend with the girls! :)

 Ola Ladies!  This post is actually a week late due to the same reasons (WORK!) haha!  But nonetheless I still have it up now :)  I actually have been raving about this trip a week before that weekend because the last time I went to a hotspring resort was back in 2008 so I am in that child-like excitement mode that no one can get me out of.  And for the first time me and my friend are complete for this trip! Usually its just me, Michelle, and Danica. But now its me, Michelle, Danica AND Marica! Yey!   This post is a little photo-heavy so please forgive me :) We left Manila at around 8:30am-9am. We made a stop-over at a gas station in SLEX where we picked up some KFC for lunch and also dropped by Starbucks for some morning drinks. I got a mocha frappuchino. Marica got mango passion fruit. Danica had Cafe Latte. Michelle got Chocolate frappuchino.   My Frap Mango Passion Fruit yumyum! Cafe Latte We also went to buy some chips later on our trip. We are just going to
