iBilik Is Now Available In Philippines!


        Heart pumping news everyone! Finding a room with a reasonable and yet affordable price in Philippines is no longer a hassle! From the research that I’ve been doing these past few days, obtaining a room that is clean and spacious, cheap and affordable, in close vicinity to food and shopping outlets in the Philippines is a dream come true.

        I’ve only been to Philippines once but when I felt like it was time to make a trip back again, I decided to do some digging. Finding a suitable place to bunk at was certainly no easy feat, which was until I remembered that iBilik is now available in the Philippines!

        With much haste, I began to stalk the site, lurking about hoping to score a sweet deal that came with all the necessities that I required in order to have a smooth sailing vacation. Given that I would normally travel in a group, the first option seemed the most compelling. Offered at a modest price of PhP 2,996 (USD 70) per day I found myself glued to this one particular page and was amazed with how fast I had found a fully furnished 2 storey landed house that could accommodate a maximum of 5 people. 



        Once I did some calculations it dawned upon me that this was exactly what I was searching for. iBilik had provided me many other options but who needs to keep looking when their preferences have already been satisfied?

        I then progressed to check out the facilities and was impressed with what was offered. The house consisted of 4 bedrooms with its private toilets, top notch security, had a stable internet connection, a working washing machine and most importantly it was located right in the heart of the city. 

        I’m extremely glad that I knew off iBilik Philippines in my time of need. The websites design was simple yet easy to maneuver. It provided far more options than anyone would need but that’s the beauty about it, everything is but a click away with all the full prices displayed. No form of deception was in play and they even allowed one to choose the preference of housemates if they simply wanted to rent a room on its own. 

        That’s what I call perfection. iBilik doesn’t just make traveling look easy, they make it effortless.

The Night Before He Departed

Hey guys! Second post in a day! Woo! :D Anyways, plans for Calvin Harris tonight fell through so I ended up having a romantic dinner date with my boo at a nice Mexican restaurant instead of a packed mosh pit. Not bad I'd say, would trade Calvin Harris for a night like this any day.

Tonight's stop was this Mexican restaurant named Las Carretas in USJ Taipan. I had made a reservation for 8pm fearing that it might be packed and was glad to be seated in a cozy comfortable corner with my date. The night was filled with much chit chat as we awaited our Appetizer which I failed to snap a picture of. My apologies.

After what seemed like 10 minutes our steaks arrived and it wasn't long before my keen sense caught a whiff of the delicious piece of meat in front of me. I was eager to dig in but waited till my honey got his food too. (:
The steak was done perfectly, medium, just the way I like it. With a cider on the side to quench my thirst, the night was indeed off to a good start.




Surprisingly we both had the exact same choice of main and drink. That probably is attributed to the fact that the restaurant ran out of Strongbow so I settled for Savanna; that aside, similar taste preference for the night! :D Haha, alike and different in so many way. <3


For dessert we both once again ordered a brownie each. Baby was trying to be greedy and steal part of mine!! Meanie! :P


Doesn't it just look tantalizing? :P Needless to say, it filled me up to the brim. By the time we departed from the restaurant I was stuffed like a Christmas turkey on Thanksgiving! The meal was scrumptious, the company was irreplaceable and the night was a hit (with me).

This will just make me miss him more when he leaves tomorrow night but with all things come a silver lining and I couldn't be more overjoyed to see him in 2 weeks! Goodnight!

Seasons Change as I Grow

Hey everyone, it seems of late every time I update it's after a long hiatus of some sort. I suppose I'm learning to become more private what with information being so easily available on the web.

Nonetheless, I wonder what's been going on in the blogging world. Events come and go and tonight is Calvin Harris night. Would you say I'm stoked? Hell yeah. If only I had my tickets! See I just recently came back from a trip to PD and as timing was not on my side, the tickets have sold out. I do however want to try my luck later in hopes that I will be able to buy them at the door.

Other than that, a new chapter in my life is about to begin. This chapter will last for the next 3 years of my life as it will be the most important chapter yet. Turning 18 in a little over a month will prove to be slightly overwhelming I'm sure. As much as I adore the fact that I will be off legal age, it's new territory and new responsibilities.

On top of that, I have Orientation for University this coming Monday and am on the fence. Do I feel excited? Nervous? Uncertain? Happy? It's quite a rush of emotions all at once but I'm glad to have reached this point, to have done well in my Foundation studies last year and to be embarking on this journey with a friend, Aaron, by my side.

He's been splendid and an amazing friend to boot. Helping me as I help him and hopefully our friendship will endure throughout the coming years. Dion on the other hand leaves tomorrow night to start his own chapter, a new one with job opportunities and I wish nothing but the best for him. Guess we'll have to see what this year has installed for us as a couple. With much faith in God and myself, I believe we will go far.

Till my next update, whenever that will be, thank you for reading. Cheers.
