Coachella in my mind

I know I'm wayyyy behind posting about the Epic Coachella Music and Arts Festival. I just can't get enough of that effortless bohemian vibe and laid-back West Coast style aka Coachella fashion.

Here are some of my favs:

Oh Coachella! Someday, One day!

Hi! Its been a long, long time since the last post. I feel like my blog has reached a major lull. My drive to blog is just being as slow as my internet connection lol. Aside from the Winnipeg weather that made me slacked off for months. But, I've been contemplating (literally everyday fyi) on a blogging comeback.

So here, my first post for the year and I promise to be back for more.....

You Only Live Once so why not make the most out of it.......

du Canada avec amour 1

So Bienvenue vers le Canada jolies dames!!! This is goin to be my first ever blog entry all the way from Canada. I must say that being and living here is quite a challenge for us newcomers. First of, the culture's very different, the weather (so friggin' cold now) and ofcourse..I'm still trying to get used to converse in their language..ya know!!! NOSEBLEED!!! I always get home brain-dead...;)

Yesterday just marked our first month here in the land of the Blue Bombers!!! Yay!! So far, so good I would say!!!

Anyways, because I've been gone for too long, I'll just give an update thru photo diary. I guess I just have to divide it by parts...

We're based in Winnipeg, Manitoba but we've been very fortunate that we were able to take a tour of Alberta right away. It was a very long trip indeed!! On the road for roughly 17 hrs!!! But mann, we enjoyed every minute of it (sleep included).

Our First Shopping Stop

TARGET

Headed north of Calgary to Alberta's newest shopping outlet mall

CROSS IRON MILLS

Bought alot of stuffs here!!!

Too tired and exhausted from the trip and the shopping, so we ended up having a deep and well-deserved snooze in

MAYFIELD INN & SUITES

Our 2nd day were mostly spent in one of the world's largest mall

WEST EDMONTON MALL, that is!!!!

Decided to wear something comfy for I've expected alot of walks here

Aside from shopping, WEM has ALOT to offer and a MULTIPLAYPASS is the way to go baby!!!

Watched the Sea Lion Show, but wasn't able to watch the other animal shows because of time...

WTH!!! Look!!! My lil girl's touching that freakin sting rays!!!

The Kids + Daddy enjoyed Rope Quest...

and the Blaster Boat as well....

Played Golf @ Putt & Glow,

but chose not to post photos of us for we literally glowed in a scary way

Had fun Bowling @ Ed's Rec Room

After a long and tiring day, we managed to squeezed in a lil shopping

This isn't the end yet of our Alberta adventures.

Au revoir & de Philippines ; Bonjour le Canada ! !

I'm back and finally found time to update after almost 3-months of blog pause. Slacked off totally and d*mn how I missed it!!! Oh, if you're wondering what I've been up to this past months, lemme tell you...I'm now here in Canada...Winnipeg, Manitoba that is!!! I think that's one of the main reason I didn't get to blog because I've been to so many get-together, despedida parties and all of the last hoorahs we have to make before we left. Aside from the fact that I've somehow lost my drive & inspiration and mostly because of the lack of time and energy.

I'm practically down to nada, for I dunno how to get started again...LoL...

Here's a pic of me heading to the airport....

.......I won't be posting pics on the airport anymore because it's such a very sad moment for us.

We arrived in Winnipeg at almost 12midnight and we're quite surprised on how many people greeted and met us at the airport. Too bad I wasn't able to take good quality pics of them (just had a blurry one) because I was too overwhelmed. Thank you everyone!!!

There's a lil welcome foodies for us when we get to our new home...Good thing, jetlag wasn't really an issue to us for we had a good night sleep after! 16hrs flight from Manila to Vancouver + 4hrs lay over + 2hrs flight to Winnipeg = who wouldn't get dead tired and sleepy, eh?! Btw, we arrived last August 13th, almost a month from today....

Will be blogging about our Alberta adventures next...=))

Merci!!!

Just another lazy afternoon

ayieh — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 11:19:54 -0500

Sorry for the long blog pause...I've been very busy spending quality time with our longtime buds, i'll be blogging about that soon. For now, there are alot of backlogs sitting pretty on my drafts. Anyways, I hope that it wouldn't be much of a hassle if i'll be posting it one by one. I felt so guilty for neglecting my lil space on the blogosphere, just bear with me plssss...=)

A lazy afternoon

I'm like a total slacker and fob in this but felt undeniably comfy strolling around BHS.
