Eat & Go: A way to go!

As mentioned in the previous post, July 12 was a milestone for my hair. It's a great thing that the night didn't end at that as the hubby and I had dinner at Eat & Go, SM Megamall Atrium subsequently.

We don't usually eat out especially now that we are still recovering from the financial damage the wedding has made. So for this particular night, we opted to just have dinner at an Asian/European casual dining restaurant.

David's Salon at 50% OFF = still overrated

My eventful weekend started off at David Salon Ruby Road in Ortigas Center. It was a spontaneous engagement that the Duchess and I agreed to do to wrap up our work-week. We booked for a haircut at 5pm. Over lunch of that Friday, we were just talking about how unhappy we were of our hair anymore. How serendipitous that it was David Charlton's birthday (July 12) and so David's Salon nationwide was on 50% off on all hair services. Thank God!

The last time I went to a salon for a haircut was in 2001. Yes, I'm not kidding. Since then, I learned to DIY-trim and layer my hair. The last time I did it was a week before my wedding which was two months ago. Actually, I also DIY my hair color but let's save that for another entry.

Typical Reality Check OR Serious Quarter-life Crisis?

I am 24, married, and with a stable job. I get about 6 hours of sleep every night. I'm still underweight despite efforts to eat more. I have a long overdue appointment with the dentist, derma, OB, and the cardio. That's how I am at the surface and that's not what I'm going to dwell on today. I just thought that's a cool intro. Now brace yourself for the serious body of this letter.

Lately, there has been a lot of reflection going on. Finding myself at daze is becoming frequent and along with it would be occasions of deep contemplation on where I am now in this God-given life. Am I making the most out of it? Am I on the right track? Am I happy? Do I look tired? Am I tired? Is this quarter-life crisis? I don't know. I might have used the term a couple of times before in a conversation with a friend yet I'm not even sure if such a concept exists. Remember how busy I was with all the wedding preps some months ago? And remember how I mentioned the reality that most brides lose their heads after the wedding because of sudden shift from SUPER BUSY to SUPER BORED when there is not a wedding to worry about anymore?

OOTD: BELLELAVIE_PH

A long overdue sponsored post. 

OOTD means Outfit of the Day and I'm excited to show you all my first share of one.

Grace of @BELLELAVIE_PH on Instagram has been very generous to send me this fabulous set of outfits from their Dainty Collection. 

Top is made of black chiffon material. High-waisted shorts made of lacy floral fabric.

I love how this fashion gives comfort too. Very light and easy to wear.

I love my new job.

They say waking up in the morning, really early in the morning, is one of the most noble thing a person can do. I agree! It's one of the hardest things to do. Though I already consider myself a morning person, if I hit the sack later than my usual sleeping time (which is at 8:00pm), waking me up before 5:00am the next day will mean war. I'm serious.

But all that changed when this "marriage" thing disturbed my then stable and comfortable life. In fact, this thing might actually have changed a LOOOOT of things about me drastically. Today, I'd like to share a part of this overwhelming transition. 

I have a new job. And it's called wifehood. Yes, I call it a job because it's not easy and just like any other, it needs serious work, great effort, passion, motivation, time management, patience, et cetera. It's been barely two months since I landed this position yet I can already and sincerely say how much I'm loving it just because it's rewarding and I feel that it changed me into a better person.
