This is like an installation art of 202 restored 1920s cast-iron streetlamps from Los Angeles and many other nearby cities. His main objective with this artwork is to show the sophistication of the urban landscape. You too can visit it at Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Urban Light is definitely a tourist attraction you want to check out when visiting L.A. After seeing it in movies, I finally was able to see it for myself. I was with my aunts and my sister and we really had fun hanging out with these streetlamps. By the way, this is good for a date night. :)

"By placing 202 human-scale lamps very close together and in long colonnades, I feel usurped the lamp's function as streetlamp. Together they form a sculpture which I call Urban Light. The viewer's experience of traversing through these tightly spaced fluted column is an exalted one that recalls the marvel of seeing and walking thorough classic Greek and Roman architecture or a European cathedral. The feelings of recollection and wonder transform the streetlamps, day or night into the sculpture Urban Light."

Harem pants are getting popular everywhere even in the Philippines. This type of pants is extremely baggy but goes skinny from the legs to the knees/ankles. The style originated from the traditional clothes of Arabians. The cutting of the pants can be low-crotch, mid-crotch, and also extremely low-crotch.

I just love how harem pants can be paired with any type of tops. What I did was to pair it with a white tee with black sleeves. I say that you can never really go wrong with black and white.

What I’m wearing: shirt (Oxygen), harem pants (168 Mall, Divisoria), shoes (Levi's), sunglasses (Dickies), necklace (YRYS)

The buildings are magnificent, the food, the culture and every single detail were made with perfection. And I am just a happy traveler that moment when I visited this place with two of my friends from the Philippines - Madz and Erika.

Oh yeah! It was a scene of relaxation for me - the cool breeze, the soothing sound of the waves and the peaceful ambience. And at last, my love for photography was ignited again. I say, summer is not yet over!

Dressing up is like going back to grade school where you can be anyone you wanted to be. You can be your favorite hero, a cartoon character or maybe a little bit spooky, sexy or just be plain silly.

And here we are at the grandest party in the metro! Dubbed as the biggest and longest-running Halloween costume party in the Philippines took place last October 26, 2013 at the World Trade Center, Pasay City. BIGFISH International presents CREAM Halloween Ball 2013.

The party was filled with a lot of people slipped in their costumes. We were also dressed up as the stars from 'The Hobbit', my bestfriend Jong as Gandalf The Grey, Amor as Arwen and yours truly as Radagast The Brown. There were also a lot of remarkable costumes that caught our attention like the jolly-funny Wolverine & the sexy Queen of the Damned who was very statuesque with her pose.

And thanks to DJ Tydi for the hyping us - all the party animals went crazy. The night was awesome with his beat and music. The crowd was great. Thanks BIGFISH! I just can't wait for another Cream Ball. :)

When you go to The Wicked Spoon Buffet, you have to practice patience since the line is so long, but it was really worth the wait. I just love everyting here especially the presentation of the foods. Thanks to my sister for bringing us here. :)

Take a culinary journey around Resorts World Manila and have another great dining experience at a Mediterranean-themed restaurant that serves traditional and classic Mediterranean cuisines, The Terrace. Located at the Maxim's Hotel, 5th Floor in RWM, Newport Boulevard, Newport City, Pasay City, The Terrace is such a good place for a fine dining with friends, family or even a date.

The first thing that I noticed upon entering the restaurant is its calm ambiance. Not the typical resto for me, this place has dimmer lights that I found a little bit romantic or more. This place can also be your jumping-off point after visiting the casino, roaming around the Newport Mall or even some random occasion when you are at Maxim's Hotel.

This place can entertain 150 guests. You need not to worry when you're here since they have a lot of payment options, from cash to credit cards or you can even use your RWM Genting Points. The Terrace is open from Monday to Sunday and you can dine all day from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm.

So, I got a plate of fried chicken with mashed potato and some Mediterranean salsa on it. The food was really perfect aside from the bread and hummus that they served as a starter. I really enjoyed my food and would definitely recommend it. :) I left the place with a full stomach and definitely this place is worth every peso.
