Just when I’m about to use Bobbie Premium Nail Creme Green Lush, I decided to go for Glittery Red by OPI Nail Lacquer! It might be my happy mood that trigger the switch.
DIY Nail Paint with OPI Nail Lacquer
Evening shot of my glittery red nails!
Forget about that smudge. I painted my nails last night and took some photos afterwards. Just blogging about it now! 
Thrift shopping is a great hobby to have since it not only helps you find clothing treasures but can also help you to save money at the same time. Since high waisted skirts are a new trend based on an older fashion trend I’ve been finding quite a few of those in the stores I’ve been shopping at recently. Those and very pretty maxi dresses as well. The hottest trends are just around the corner and I want to tell you about a few newer trends that are already hot and are sure to last throughout the rest of the year. Have you checked out the cute summer dresses section yet? There is a huge selection of them amoung stores’ dress sections. If you want to look super hot this summer (and I don’t mean from the weather), you should get some of these dresses into your closet as soon as possible. They are all beautifully made and come in a great variety of colors and styles. Don’t worry if you think you think clothes that no one else does, dresses come in all different kinds and there will surely be some that fit your stylish needs. Make sure to go shopping with a friend! Everything is more fun when you can take turns trying on different clothes and seeing someone else’s individual style (or maybe just get matching dresses!). When it come to finding an awesome clothing outlet, there are tons of different places that you can look. If you don’t like the stores at malls around you, try online! If you’ve never shopped online before, you are surely missing out. Personally, I do almost all my clothes shopping online since I can not only usually find thing much cheaper than in stores, but also find unique clothes so that I never have to worry about matching with some random stranger. If you have a party coming up, make sure to try your best at shopping online since a unique dress is imperative to showing up at a party. No girl wants to be wearing the same dress when they go out unless they are best friends. There are tons of designer out there and I’m sure that you will find one with a style similar to yours. I dont really like any designer labels, I go more for a “genre” kind of look. Dressing alternative has kind of always been my thing, but maybe it’s yours too! In that case I suggest searching on a search engine for cool online shopping stores to sort through and find your next treasure! There are lots of different styles that maxi dresses come in and I’m sure you’ll find the perfect one by searching a store near you. I’ve found a lot online that were one of a kind, literally. An artist tie dyed them and now they are beautiful and wearable works of art. Every type of clothing that you wear should be comfortable and never a struggle to get into (like some dresses). Make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you right back. Thrift shopping can be very fun in groups since you can have a little competition about who finds the most interesting stuff first. You can have a low spending limit and still find a bunch of different things that you can purchase. I love saving money on clothes since it leaves me even more money for more clothes, haha!
With the most recent Google Page Rank update, some of my blogs’ PR increase its ranking by one. Pinkville remains PR2 though. Not bad at all. This is better than dropping its page rank. One of my blogs that goes PR1 from PR0 is the Gaming Zone – www.bestgamingvideos.com
Because of that, I was inspired to update its theme! From the default Blogger template, here’s what I’ve got now:
My boyfriend helped me a lot with the header ideas since he’s the one who loves video games. He’s also in charge of GZ’s content. As for me, my games include Facebook apps, pc games and Magic the Gathering.
Can you name everyone on that header image?
I came home all soaked up and wet. That’s big thanks to the first rainfall of May, dubbed as “Agua de Mayo” by some old folks. Eversince I was little, I learned to appreciate the first rainfall of May. My mom and grandma always tell us to bathe under the rain so my siblings and I were used to playing in the rain. That was long time ago. My grandma passed away in 2009 and I haven’t been staying longer in Batangas with them. I spend most of my time here in Manila, and now that it’s raining cats and dogs, I really wish I was at home with my family so that I can enjoy this blessed waters of May. My parents used to tell me that it’s good for our health and it can even cure skin problems and other diseases. In short, Ague de Mayo is associated to good health and good luck. I remember that they also collect rain water in a 1L bottle and we keep it for medicinal purposes. I believe my stomach ache has been cured by this miraculous water of May when I was a kid.
There are many beliefs associated with the first rainfall of May. Even without scientific basis, I respect each belief and hope that it can really bring blessing to everyone who believes.
On a side note, this abrupt but heavy rainfall has actually improved Manila’s temperature. The rain cooled down Metro Manila and other parts of Luzon and a lot of people are really happy about it. In fact, I’ve seen lots of children playing in the rain. I’m green with envy!
Though there has been occasional rainfall on other parts of the country, PAGASA (Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration) confirmed that summer has not yet officially ended. The rain was due to local thunderstorm brought about by extreme high temperature, quick water evaporation and the formation of heavy rain clouds. The “water cycle”, remember?

Spring break always gives us the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors with various activities. However, no outdoor is complete without any form of tailgating party complemented by some tailgating recipes. And perhaps the best recipe that will make everyone’s mouth watery is by grilling that big turkey. It is actually easy and no need to worry about putting it in the oven.
Keep grilling!
This recipe serves at least eight to ten people but it is important that you prepare the turkey the night before your party. Make it a point to put it inside the fridge and it should be a twelve pound turkey at that. It is also vital that you have an average-sized outdoor gas-grill. You also need a large roasting pan and a rack to pull this off. For the ingredients, you need three cups of chicken stock, though one stored in a box would work, two teaspoons of garlic powder, two to three teaspoons of onion powder, one to two teaspoons of poultry seasoning and one teaspoon of fresh chopped parsley.
Once everything is all prepared, what you have to do first is to wash the turkey. Rinse it well. Remove the giblets from the pocket since you can use it to make gravy. Carefully pat the turkey using paper towels. While you are setting things aside, light your grill and put it to medium heat. Spray the grill lightly with a no-calorie cooking spray.
Afterwards, mix all the ingredients such as the chicken stock, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, parsley, the paprika, and the onion powder then put the turkey in along with everything. Make sure to place it breast down. Scoop the basting liquid over the turkey then lightly cover it with aluminum foil. Grill it for three to four hours.
Then take the temperature off the turkey in the thigh until it reaches around 180 F in which it is already cooked. Just let it cool off a bit before you start serving it to the guests. Though it may have taken long, the wait is worth it and will surely please you as well as your guests.
I may be the tiniest star in the universe.
I may be the faintest ray of light.
I may be the fadest hue in canvas.
I may be the farthest unknown place.
And I may be lost in space..
But still - I EXIST!!!
"I'm aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be...
But most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see.."
