Almost Weekend Report

I promised to myself, when I restarted this blog, that I will try to post at least every other day. However, I have been under the weather for a couple of days now. I think it's due to the erratic weather we've been having. Colds and headache kept me from thinking about something to post, much less actually logging on to the computer and typing. 

I did manage to get out of bed to attend my high school friend's daughter's 1st birthday last Tuesday. I have confirmed my attendance and bought a gift weeks before. Plus, I haven't seen her in almost two years so despite a stuffy nose it was off to a Barney-themed party for me. I have forgotten how much I love being around kids. Their innocent eyes and heart-warming smiles never fail to make me appreciate life and the simple things around us.

Today, I was able to go to UP and help my cousin take her chances with the specific departments within the campus. You see, she passed the UPCAT but was qualified only for the Baguio campus. Since she lives just 10 to 15 minutes away from the Diliman campus, Baguio seems far, far away. We were told that some colleges may reconsider her case since she is an UPCAT passer. Much to our dismay and contrary to the pieces of advice we received from different people, the University seems to have been stricter with their admissions. After eating a quick, very late lunch at the Shopping Center, we went to the mall and looked for her graduation dress. We ended up buying "graduation shoes" instead. She picked something similar to the one below. (:

I told myself not to buy anything for the coming weeks since I just recently purchased this, this, and this. (This reminds me, I should make a post about my search for and purchases of best coupon offers.) But, I saw this dark brown nail polish I have been searching for at Etude House and I knew I must buy it. Luckily, it was sold at only P98.00/bottle. I  managed to buy one more for just P48.00. (: I can't seem to find pictures of the polishes in the internet and I'm too lazy to take photos of my newly-self-manicured nails, so for reference see picture below which made me want the dark chocolate shade. :D
