Asian Skin Care Giveaway

I’ve been travelling around quite often and have been exposed to different culture and trends. 

As someone who is skin conscious and kikay , I’ve invested so much on skin care and beauty products. I would not even deny how my kikay bag would scream asian products such as Shu Uemura, Shiseido, Chateau Labiotte and even the korean face masks that I have at home.

So, I did shop for a couple of items while I was on my trip and have some stash coming from Korea too ! All for my readers. ^_^ 

This giveaway will be short and sweet.

Here we go for the mechanics !

1. There will be 2 winners – 1 from this blog, 1 from my social networks: facebook and instagram.

2.This giveaway is open for Philippine residents only and will run from July 23 to August 65, 2017.

3. Chosen winners must email Candice.Amoranto@gmail.com 48 hours prior to the announcement of winners. Failure to send an email will void your entry and will automatically mean that we will raffle off another person to fill your slot.

“ONE REGULAR-SIZE SOFTDRINKS WITH HUGOT PLEASE!”

Sa isang fast-food restaurant na parang hindi naman ata ganun ka-fast,

“Good morning sir. Can i take your order please?”

“Kinuha na nga ang lahat sa’kin pati ba naman order ko. One mushroom swiss burger. ”

“Sir. Hindi po siya available today.”

“Ganun. Yun pa naman gusto ko.”

“Ganun talaga sadya sir. Hindi lahat ng gusto mo makukuha mo.”

—-

“Sige. isang double cheese burger na lang tska large fries.”

“Ilalarge na din po ba natin yung drinks?”

“Okay na ‘ko dun. Mahirap kapag sobra, minsan nasasayang lang.”

“Bale 17 riyals po lahat.”

So nag-abot ako ng 20 riyals.

“Sir wala po kayong 2 riyals? Para po bibigyan ko na lang kayo ng buong 5 riyals. ”

“Sobra na nga yung binigay ko kulang pa rin? Yan tayo eh. ”

“Sir. Wala pong tayo.”

“Narinig ko na yan.”

—-

“Anything pa po sir?”

“Wala na.”

 “Kaya lang po mga 5 minutes pa yung drinks. Rerefillan lang po saglit yung machine. Sanay naman ata kayong maghintay?”

“Nakakapagod lang namang maghintay kapag walang assurance na dadating talaga.”

—

So bumalik ako dun sa inupuan ko kanina. Pero pagbalik ko may iba ng nakaupo. And I was like,

 “Tangina naman oh. Taken na nga, inaagaw pa rin.” 

Pero kasalanan ko rin naman kasi di ko iniwan yung bag ko sa upuan. Hindi ko iningatan kaya naagaw ng iba. Kaya lumipat na lang ako ng ibang table. Pagod na din akong ipaglaban yung dapat sana pwesto ko talaga.

Maya-maya, nagblink na yung hawak ko at bumalik ako ng cashier para kunin yung drinks.

“Sir. Hawakan niyo po ng mabuti ha. Baka mahulog….. yung drinks.”

“Kahit anong hold-on ang gawin mo kung gusto niyang mahulog sa iba, mahuhulog at mahuhulog pa rin yan.”

At bilang minamalas ka nga naman, nabubo nga yung drinks. 

“Baka hindi lang talaga para sa inyo sir.”, sabi ni ateng cashier.

Pero buti na lang naitayo ko agad kaya medyo may natira pang konti.

“Gusto niyo po bang palitan na lang natin sir?”

“Hindi ganun kadali.”

And si lolang nasa likod be like,

*Sarap pagtatampalin ng dalawang ‘to puta.*

M-day. ❤ (at Maria's)

[mariaswanderland]

And while you and the rest of your kind are battling together—year after year—for this special privilege of being 'bored to death,' the 'real girl' that you're asking about, the marvelous girl, the girl with the big, beautiful, unspoken thoughts in her head, the girl with the big, brave, undone deeds in her heart, the girl that stories are made of, the girl whom you call 'improbable'—is moping off alone in some dark, cold corner—or sitting forlornly partnerless against the bleak wall of the ballroom—or hiding shyly up in the dressing-room—waiting to be discovered..and loved.

Idky i feel this way. These leaks coming out from my eyes every now and then. Maybe, all my feelings got bottled up for a loooong time and now theres too much pressure so its bursting out in thousand of words i wish i could ever define. But you know i still hold back, for no one would understand and they will just find it annoying, says "im the problem" and they end up putting all the blames on me that im letting this emotion defeat me. Who says im not trying? I exerted too much of me yet its still not enough. If only i could rest from this terrible exhaustion, sh*t i nearly did. But i still want to win this fight. I will win this. But for now, i need rest and a break from everything's that breaking me. I deserve it. 💔 And for you taking your precious time to read this, thank you but dont get me wrong coz... i am really a very happy contented person in spite of the million pieces of my broken heart. 👋 #swgfeels #feelingoutloud

[mariaswanderland]

Knowing that when im gone the grind will go on. No one is special enough to stop it. #swgfeels #swgdiary #mariaswanderland #catlove #nekogirl

If no one was gutsy enough to stand by her, she'd stand by herself. #life #reality #walkingdisaster #mariaswanderland

Halfy

Its been a while.

I cant seem to remember the last time i felt really really really happy.

Dont get me wrong.

I do feel happy. I always choose to be coz i dont wanna be sad. But then i always end up somewhere in between.

Smiling outside, crying inside?

IDK.

I wish i dont have to worry about anything that may turn out wrong or anyone who might just unlike (unlove) me because of whatever reasons they’ll have.

I hope i dont have to care so much about everything and everyone that matters to me.

(But damn it, i do. I always do. 😔)

Coz srsly, its like a blessing and a curse all at the same time, to feel too much of everything. To fall deeply, to be stuck wondering if i really matter to those i love most, or they just dont feel the same way thats why they dont reciprocate that much.

I dont expect anyone to care but im hoping they’d realize that i needed it too. More likely to feel that im not just nothing to them. That somehow they’d make me feel they want to keep me in their lives, too.

It feels like my heart is always aching and breaking. Like im always torn in two. And that made me so HALFY. 💔

Torn between two loves. To read or to watch? 🙉 Guess that magical novel wins today. Yii. 📚 Finally, book 5! One of the bookseries i fell inlove with. Every series has something very fascinating in it and somehow i can relate to the struggles of the girl in this story. 🙋 #mykindofhappiness #igreads #booklove #ChandaHann #bibliophile #ebookslove #UnfortunateFairytale #bookish #catlove #mariareads #swgdiary #mariaswanderland
