Anything Mariel

This is a late post, but whatever. lol. It was my children's first time to experience egg hunting at Easter and they were excited as I was because it was my first time too. :) I never had the chance to hunt eggs when I was young because we celebrated Easter differently. But anyways, it was all fun and exciting.

This was also my kids' first time to see the Venice at Piazza, Mckinley. Well, they didn't have any idea what the bridge was famous for, but still seeing a bridge over greenish water is still a joy. :) Taking photos as a guests (not an employee) felt a bit different. lol.




Joining the Spongebob's Eggspedition wasn't planned at all. We dropped my husband at Mckinley for he was going to work on a Sunday and just the right moment that there was an event for kids. Only that we needed to have at least 1K worth of purchase from any of the Piazza Establishments, I learned it as I threw the receipts I got for lunch worth 1,000 PHP. So to be able to join, I had to pick up/ beg/ ask for receipts from customers who didn't need theirs. lol. It was a bit embarassing, but it was for my kids so what the heck! :) They were the happiest when we got to enter the venue and played around and do stuff like jumping and making their own pizza.


These were the activities they had for kids and it was all thrilling (for my kids). For moms/dads/parents, it was exhausting of course, lol, but seeing your kids having fun and you did just the right thing to give it to them, it's worth the exhaustion. :)

My kids enjoyed all of the activities, especially the face painting, pizza making and the egg hunt. :) I did the hunting because they didn't have any idea what we were hunting for and I told them we were hunting eggs and there's a surprise in it. When we found one, my kids were estatic. Then we found another one, they were so eager to look for more! :) But alas, we only found two. But it's was ok. Next year, I'll prepare egg hunting inside our house with special gifts for them. :)

The Venice at Night. Isn't it nice? :)

If you ever feel like you aren't any better, you are wrong. You are the best that you can be and all you have to do is let all those shit go and you'll feel way way better.

My "Before" Look

My hair was this long and on my previous blog, I had Keratin Complex treatment from Vivere Salon. It wasn't so bad but it didn't turn out very well either. I told  that I was going to return blog after three days to show how it looks like after washing it off but forgot about it, so Sorry :) lol, and this "Before" photo looks OK because I brushed it really well. Right after I washed my hair off 3 days after the treatment, the straightness was lessen and the tips were flying away, so I wasn't totally happy about the result, I'm slightly disappointed. Anyway, cutting it would make me feel better. So I did.
 
Visited Bench Fix today at Festival Mall, Alabang to push my decision to chop my hair off so there'll be no turning back, cause I was having second thoughts. But I told myself it's gonna grow back and tomorrow will only be a hair problem, so I really have to do it.

My "After" Look

 So, 30 minutes after, THIS is my final look. Lol. Don't I look gorgeous??? OF COURSE! Thanks to Mr. Rod of Benchfix Festival Mall for making me pretty today.I love it and so did everyone. :)

Cozy :)

There was only 1 massage room. :(

 It's a cozy little place and cute. :) Cousin bought the Massage+Mani OR Pedi deal from Metrodeal. I had a massage, mani AND pedi so I don't have to think of doing my own nails before everything gets busy.

SO dedicated. :) I felt like a Queen.

Hello, says my ginger-like feet.

So how about you? What do you do for Beauty Break? :)
