Nyx Lipstick Review in Bruised Rouge Meurtri

Us girls are independent and experimental that it applies on the way we showcase ourselves through cute dresses, fancy jewelries, shoes and having a wide range collection of make-ups and lippies! Yesterday, one of my office mates and a very close friend of mine-- Lia, lend us her NYX lipstick for us to try it. Of course we are so giddy and very game with the idea! Here are the group picture of us wearing the lipstick:

Adwords Fundamental Seminar

Last June 10-11, 2014: I and my search marketing team attended a Google Adwords seminar held at Alphaland Southgate Tower Magallanes. It was a two day event and our speaker was none other than Ms. Marie Lu from WideOut. She's a certified digital marketing manager and has extensive experience on handling Adwords campaign. I also forgot to mention that she's also an Adwords certified too.

As a participants or attendees of the seminar we are oblige to bring our own laptop because we will use it on the 2nd day to take the online exam on Advertising fundamentals from Google Partners. Anyhow, we are very lucky that we only pay 600 pesos per head for the event because our company is one of the Google Partnered companies. We chance to avail the 90% discount from the actual amount of 6,000 pesos.

The search marketing team with our expat web content creator - Kuda!

The pioneer search marketing team or as I call our group - The Survivors!

The event coordinator at WideOut also gave us this hand book that contains screen shots of our lesson.

New URL Address: Cinscortes.blogspot.com

Opps! Sorry if I changed my blog address from livewiselivefree.blogspot.com into cinscortes.blogspot.com due to work related purposes. I am planning to use it on my visual resume that's why I've decided to rename it.

Anyhow, I am begging you all to please, please do visit my blog! I know that there are many things that I need to improve here in my blog especially on the way I write my entries. I take this as a baby step to hone my skills in blogging or writing! Yayy. So please exert more patience on me.

On the other hand I promise I will do my best to keep my blog more updated with what's happening with my life especially my cyst operation that I had this 1st quarter of 2014. It sounds scary but hey I survived my second under the knife experience so stay tune for that. Over and out.

Happy Kitten. That's my face when I successfully update my blog template and revise my URL address. I can't believe I can still read CSS codes after all this years. Stock knowledge, eh!

Anthology Shoes

I promise that I will not splurge this month because I am planning to save but oh boy I broke that one again. I went to the Ramp at Glorietta 2 Makati city yesterday just to window shop and I end up buying a new pair of anthology shoes. It was love at first sight when I lay my eyes on them. Look at this wonderful babies:

 I just can't resist the urge to bring home this lovely pair of flat shoes. They are telling me to buy them. Nah, of course this is just my excuse. The Imeldific in me! Haha.

Anthology shoes has this wonderful sole too.

I am really happy with what I've purchased and I can't wait to use it in the office. I've been an Anthology fan since 2013 and I can say that there shoes is super comfortable. It can also endure slippery floor although there is only one down side-- the price! I bought this for an amount of 2,400 pesos. A bit pricey compared to other shoe brands such as Gibi, Rusty Lopez & Boccalo but this flat shoes is a good investment because it can last long. I also have other pair of shoes from this brand and they are still in a good form right now but it really depends upon if you use it everyday or not. Anyhow, at the end of the day I am just a happy gal with a new pair of flat shoes. Lalalala.

Dim Light

Twisted world apart
Broken dreams that meant to be fix
Promises that are made into ashes
How can I survived with this?

I can't breathe, blurry images is at my sight
How can I go on with this?...
Then silence came-
I can't utter any words to say

Let the riddles be solve
In a way that I cannot fathom
Oh why? why? why?
How can I stop in this mingling world?

If sincerity can be spoken
No one will be hurt
No one will gonna cry
No one will not shed blood

Revel Bars

It's pay day and I am very happy that I have money for my shopping spree! Nah, I'm just joking. I am hoping I can save now because last month I splurge on many things such as clothes, cosmetics and my run of groceries.

Anyhow, yesterday I ordered 1 box of revel bars from my office mate Jaybee. It costs 220 pesos, he also sells brownies for 200 pesos. Jaybee told us that her sister is the one who bake those brownies and bars! Before we ordered, he let us try the brownies and revel bars. It is sort of "free taste" and oh boy at first bite our tongue is singing in glee! It is super sarap (delicious)!

My apology for the missing 1 piece. I ate it when I took this photo. I also want to thank my office mate Lia for lending her phone to me.

Saturday Date with Iza

I already mention here about my best friend Iza (Pusa) in my previous blog post: Nars Make-up with Janice Daoud and Dinner date with Iza. We we're former workmates when we were at Neuron Global but we part ways after we resigned from that company. Last June 28, 2014 we coincidentally met in a situation that it's totally funny. It has something to do with a career growth and finding a stable company to work with. I guess you know what I am talking about so be quiet. Shhhhhh.

Beautiful view and weather outside: It was a sunny day

We had our dessert at Sonja cupcakes, Glorietta 2. We ordered red velvet for 85 pesos each. The cupcake is moist and I love the citrus flavor of the white frosting though I shamelessly scrape the portion of it away from the cake because it is very sweet. That's one of the qualities that is weird about me because I am not very fond of super sweet dessert. Huhu.

Family Mart's: Twirl-All-You-Can Green Tea Ice Cream

Yesterday, my fellow office mates namely Lia, Tin and I had an ice-cream at Family Mart along Salcedo Village Makati. They keep on bugging me how delicious the green tea ice-cream from the said convenient store and I told myself I need to try it. Of course I am also thinking of blogging it so that I can share with you guys my experience and hopefully grab one after reading my post. LOL.

We only pay 25 pesos each and the cashier gave us our cones. Of course we are very giddy twirling our own ice cream (self service). I think we are a good twirler (I don't know if this is a good word to use. LOL) look at these pictures below:

That's Lia, she's busy twirlingggg her iceee-cream. Haha.

Oh look she already perfected twirlinggg!

Patricia's Farewell Treat at Krispy Kreme

Working in a corporate world is tough and saying goodbye to one of your co-workmate is hard though we always wish them well on their future endeavours. Yesterday was the last day of our QA specialist-- Patricia. She has been on the company for a month now but had to leave because there’s a more competitive job offer from other corporate. Farewell is never that easy and I wish her good luck.

The qualities that I like about Pat (her nickname) is that she's very sweet, innocent and kind. I actually see myself on her though she is craziest when it comes to love. Anyhow, she treats us at Krispy Kreme along Jaka Street Makati for doughnuts during our coffee break.

Us girls. Oh there is Patricia she's wearing a red, white and blue stripe polo.

Thank you Patricia for your treat. See you around and may you succeed in life and stay pretty as always!

Marithé et François Girbaud & Toblerone

I recently purchase a new messenger bag and I can say that I am very happy with it because I got it on SALE! Here's the catch you can buy one bag and then can get another bag with different model but only pay the amount of one item. Of course I am very fond of sale and promo like this that I go gaga searching for a perfect bag at their stall. Spell happiness at that moment. I am smiling from ear to ear. Heh.

For corporate events or for everyday use

For casual events, lunch and dinner dates
