French Baker's Macarons Review

Image
I have told you before that I was a little bit disappointed on Macarons that I have so far tasted. Well actually, I have only tasted one and not impressive at all. And I was like, I'm not gonna give up on these colorful babies and would give it another try. Here's my verdict for the second attempt. I got these Macarons from another familiar bakery in town. French Bakery. I have mixed feelings about this store actually. I mean, it's just that I don't really like breads all that much and the one I've tasted from this store didn't really impress me all that much so yeah. And the reviews I've seen listed Tous Les Jours' macarons above this one so I was like, there can't be anything worse than that! LOL. Just kidding. But really though thinking about it now, their macarons were pretty bad.  You know me! These details just made me wanna cry! LOL. But I must say that their illustration is very well made. Love! I hope to live on tha...

So Going Back Here

Image
Just a little bit of kwento. I went to SM Manila right after I accompanied my friend to buy a compiled reviewer for the board exam and then I didn't want to go home right away also because I was a little bit panicky yesterday. One thing I should remember is to never ask people how far they have gone with their review. It makes me want to cry so I'm better off alone. Anyway.  Well actually, I went to SM Manila thinking I would try French Bakery's Macaroons but unfortunately, they don't sell it there or they probably run out of it or something but that macaroon tasting didn't happen so I was like roaming around and then searching for a tea/coffee/yogurt place instead and voila! Saw this little tea place beside the cinema. I was like, so going there!! I'm a lucky soul.  So luckily, I brought my notes with me and I decided to study a little bit whilst I was there. And what I like about this place is that when I take a brake or whenever I would look u...

Paris and Prada

Image
Well actually, this is just a Paris appreciation post. Haha and a little bit of The Devil Wears Prada review. I downloaded it this week and was able to watch it the other day so let's keep moving, shall we? We shall. Okay my thought after watching the movie. It actually really inspired me to pursue my dreams. Whatever that is.  Okay this is kind of vague but I got it. I got it. Or at least I think. The Devil Wears Prada approves that Paris is the biggest deal of the year so whatever and for some reason, I can really identify with Andrea pretty much. The main story is that she got hired to be Miranda's assistant in New York and even though it isn't an easy job (AT ALL), and she's not really into fashion (when she applied) she stayed and worked hard because she had a vision. A vision of meeting other people through the job. Other people that might get her somewhere else. Good thinking. I really think that her dream to be a journalist is the same a...

Hers and Mine.

Like I said, I was catching up with movies and this time, I'm gonna review Bourne Identity. Well not really review though. Just gonna say something about it and what my opinions on it are and stuff like that. Actually, I watched When in Rome before Bourne but it was so kinda walang kwenta kaya 'wag nalang. Haha. This one is like an old film na. Released 2002 pa. Pero anyways.  So it is about Jason Bourne, an assassin who lost his memory. He was found floating by some fishermen sort of. The guy who was cutting his body sort of found out that he got shot and yeah good thing there's someone in the boat who knows how to remove it from his body and all that stuff. And then the interesting part was there was a tiny laser kind of bullet found in his hip and when the doctor/that someone flashed it on the wall, it revealed his bank number. Okay so fast forward. The cops were everywhere looking for him and he don't know why. He still got the skills though. Fighting ...

Watch IT!

Image
Hey everyone! This is the video I made. And was talking about. I really had fun doing and waiting for it to be done so that I would be able to show to everyone and yeah. SUCCESS! It's been a long time coming. Or not. LOL. We were just talking about it yesterday but whatever. Have fun watching. Or not. Whatever. LOL.

Favorite Eiffel Looks.

Image
So recently, I've reached 1000 pictures of Eiffel Tower. I don't know why I did it but I did it anyways. I actually made a picture/video presentation of it and yeah, it's just nice to look at it. If you're interested in watching, gotta post a link to it soon. Just to kind of summarize it all. Here are my top 5 looks of the Eiffel Tower that I did with my daily obsession of looking at it and saving it to my phone. CLOUDY EIFFEL For some reason, I get really really excited when there are changes or stuff on how the clouds are formed. I mean, I don't know. Is it just me or what? Oh the little things in this life.  CANDY CORN EIFFEL I don't know but for some reason, I am really fascinated by colors. Like, I love how the colors are put up in this one. Someone amazing is really behind every elements of this earth. And the world. In that case. Just saying. And generally, I have a thing for sunsets.  MOONING EIFFEL I love how visible t...

Random Ramblings. Wanderlust.

Image
Can I just say that I really want to travel and see the world first hand? For real. I just hope it'd be soon! I just want to experience life in another country, like, not as a foreigner and stuff but to actually be with its people and kind of learn from them. I just thought that being a foreigner is actually not the best thing to be, because most likely, you'll be treated as one. Unlike if you're a native and stuff, you'll get more. For sure. Culture, language, tradition, and stuff. Countries I want to live to bucket list: South Korea France England United States of America Australia That's all!

500 days of Eiffel Tower.

Image
Just so you know, I'm obsessed with Paris! Well, France as well. But mostly Paris. Okay, Eiffel Tower in particular. So I downloaded this APP like, so many months ago which shows live stream of the world's most famous landmarks and stuff so yeah! BINGO! I don't know why but I feel so connected with the Eiffel Tower. Don't you worry guys! I'm not gonna marry it or something.  First of all! It's taken, isn't it? So yeah, my adoration starts here! The structure is sophisticated yet simple. If that makes sense. So yeah, I used to really think of going to France (Paris) everyday before and yeah I don't know. Like, I used to research where to eat, to ride, to go to and stuff like that. I even studied French on my own. Obsessed like that, yeah? LOL. But then it all kind of stopped a little bit when internship started. Boo yah! Not really stopped though. Like, it mellowed. Look! I even cross stitched it because of obsession and stuff. I'm r...
