It was quite hard choosing which ones I wanna be with because as we all want, we would like to celebrate with our loved ones and closest friends. But because I'm only required to name five for this list, it made me realize who are the ones special to me aside from my parents of course.
Please do allow me to also introduce who there are so you would know why they're special to me and why I wished to be with them this Christmas.

Back when I was
younger, printers are so hard to purchase. They were too expensive and my mom
would tell me, “Just give me the file (saved in a floppy disk) and I will print
it in the office.” In other words, it didn’t seem to be a necessity. But now, I
guess, somehow, it became one of the basic needs at home.
I believe that
because of the internet era, the printer became a necessity. Since the easiest and fastest way to get
information is through online, having a printer at home is ideal so one can
easily print out whatever they need.
Now, printers are way cheaper than the ones before. Some even comes with the scanner. Owning a printer is so easy nowadays however, that doesn't apply that' a defective one should be easy to replace.
I remember some
people saying, printers are cheaper because they also get broken easily. I beg
to disagree.
Early this year, I
was able to attend a seminar about printing (all kinds of printing).
Maintaining a printer isn’t so hard. Printers’ life span depends how often the
consumer uses it, according to the speaker of the seminar. I couldn’t remember
the exact words or list but these are the tips I remember:

Excuse my consecutive food blog posts since it's all we can do here in PNG:
EAT.
Vision City is a not-so-big mall here in Port Moresby near the Sir John
Guise Stadium. Ever since it was built, there were more food choices compared
to before where almost all the restaurants are serving Chinese food.
There were other Japanese restaurant before but to my, Ten is by far the
best Japanese restaurant I've been to here in Papua New Guinea. The ambience is
good and the location is accessible and safe.

I saw this other blog challenge from Mary of Secret Obsession before this 12 days Christmas blog challenge but wasn't able to blog about it right away since it required so many things: time, ideas for the list and well, time. Hehe.
But I'm glad that I get to finish the list today! I really thought I'd take forever. I took a few pieces from Mary's blog because I find them very interesting too. You should try this out. It's something new actually because most of the blog challenges I've seen must be accomplished within a month's time. But this... this is different. You have more than two (2) years to accomplish it and accomplish more!
Honestly, this list made my 2014 exciting! So... here's my 101 things to do in 1001 days!

I know that the most important thing during Christmas are not the material ones rather the people around us. However, we cannot deny the fact that each and everyone of us are still looking forward at least a present from someone on Christmas eve or the Christmas day itself.
Receiving/giving presents, disregarding its value, is always a ideal way of expressing how special a person is because words or actions are sometimes not enough to express that. But of course, we all have our own wishlist of the things we wish to have. Here's mine:

| Belcibo Restaurant (Ground floor of Vision city) |
Last Friday was my mom's birthday and we celebrated it in a restaurant in Vision City, Belcibo. It was like a pasta house. I love the interiors of the place and it's ambiance though I wasn't able to take a photo due to the busy environment during the time we went there.
We ordered Creamy Garlic Prawns, Ossobuco Gremolata and a Shrimp &
Asparagus Alfredo.

This Christmas...
1. I'm thankful that I'm celebrating it with my parents.
I've spent several Christmas alone in the Philippines and it feels so good
to be back with them here for the holidays.
2. I'm thankful that the three of us (mom, dad and I) are in good health.
Health is an issue for the three of us and we are thankful that we have a
good one this month and wishing to have a continuous good health in the coming
months and years.

The entire week last week, I have been visiting the different
thrift shops around our area and I'm seriously going broke. Lol.
I visited the two thrift shops in town, Flex Clothing and
Paradise Clothing where I get to buy these items.

Yes, Paul Walker died in a car accident last Saturday (US time). He was said to be with a friend, driving a Porsche GT, when the car suddenly lost control and crashed on a street light and tree. The crash was so strong it caused so much flame and the car was broken in parts.

Honestly, this is one of those news I really wished was a hoax... but it wasn't and it's what makes is so heartbreaking. His publicist confirmed his death on his Facebook page and in Reach Out World Wide's page.

Last year, September 18, 2012, we had a tour in Ilocos and stayed in Hotel Salcedo de Vigan for our first night. We arrived at exactly 5:55 am and the sun was already up. It's located a street away from Calle Crisologo.

Thanks again to Booksale Bookstore for having the current issue of one of my favorite magazines - Entrepreneur.
I knew about Entrepreneur magazine through my mom. When I was in high school, and when I'm here in the Philippines, she would tell me to buy her the current and past issues of Entrepreneur. I got curious why my mother likes reading it so after reading one of the issues I bought for her, I understood why she always wanted to have one. Then I myself became a regular reader of the magazine too.
Just like what I did for Candy Magazine (see post here), I will also put the articles I like in their July issue.

Last night, after I watched Four Sisters and a Wedding, I decided to have my dinner in the mall; I chose Kenny Rogers. Since I have cold, I couldn't taste much and so I just ordered the Grilled Fish (Basa) with a side dish of Corn and Carrots. I also ordered a Chicken Soup Noodle.

Shameful to admit but I was never a fan of Pinoy movies because it's either predictable or corny. But when I saw this trailer in ABS-CBN, it really caught my attention.

I have grown up with my Lola Lourdes. She's the strict one. She never allows me to play outside with other kids because she's afraid I might have wounds or injuries since I was a clumsy kid. She spoiled me with all the toys I wanted and almost all the things I ask for when I was a child. She did this to keep me at home. She always wanted what's best for me.

I was scheduled for an interview earlier for a packaging company near my place. The interview only last for less than 15 minutes. The only vacancy for their company is office staff.I was scheduled for an interview earlier for a packaging company near my place. The interview only last for less than 15 minutes.

Every weekend, my mom and I
speaks on the phone for minutes, talking about how our day went or about random
things. They went to a movie last weekend and mentioned she saw this movie
trailer entitled The Internship. She said it was something about Google and it
looks fun.
If you all remember the
phenomenal movie of Facebook, I imagined that movie somewhat like that. But
after seeing this trailer, it looks something different than I expect it to be.
My mom is waiting for this
movie to show. I, too, is waiting for it to show here in the Philippines. I
doubt though that I'd be able to see it before she does because most of the
good movies are usually shown in PNG first.
This is in one of the movies
my "to-watch" list now. What are the movies in your list?

Apply make-up like a
pro.
1. Wet your eyeshadow
brush. This will create a bold, defined color and allow you to apply it with
precision.
2. Wiggle your
mascara. As you apply it, gently wiggle the wand side to side as you move it up
your eyelashes. This will reduce clumps and separate and lengthen your lashes.
3. Be gentle. Always
use your finger in a dabbing motion when applying creams around the delicate
eye area as this will apply the least pressure.
4. Prepare the
canvas. Even skin tone is an essential factor in applying makeup. Exfoliate and
moisturise to ensure your foundation doesn't crack, clump or weigh your skin
down.
5. Clean your brushes.
Makeup brushes can be a breeding ground for bacteria and germs. Use shampoo to
clean your brushes thoroughly every month.
6. Choose foundation
for the season. Your skin tone can change depending on how much sun it's seeing
so make sure you re-test your color as the weather changes.

Waking up every morning and before sleeping at night, I drink this chocolate nutritional supplement power drink. This was suggested by my doctor after my operation last year (2012).
This was given to me because after my operation, I still couldn't eat full meals. I was only allowed to eat soft foods like mamon, noodles and alike. Drinking this replaces the meals I wasn't able to take either because I'm in a hurry with school/work or because I'm not feeling too well.

It was a fine day in Boracay that day when a woman approached my parents for a free buffet dinner at Astoria Hotel. My mom quickly reacted and asked, "Really? That buffet is free?" The lady that approached them confirmed that the buffet was free. As a matter of fact, they gave my parent's this small coupon.
I wasn't with them when the lady, named Marian, approached them. I was left in the other side of station 2 because I was buying some frappe. When I got to the hotel, my dad excitedly told me that we were having a free dinner buffet at a hotel named Astoria, which, told by the Marian, was what Boy Abunda has been endorsing on TV. I reacted just like my mom and asked my dad, "How sure are you that it's free? What's their deal?"

Last week, as I was doing my weekend errands at SM Dasmarinas, I saw this newly opened milk tea house named Cobo. The interiors are colorful making it eye-catching and inviting.
They are located in the top floor of SM Dasmarinas, near the cinemas, across Smart Communication Center. You'll love their store even more because they have a free wifi connection and just so you know, they do not use the crappy SM Free Wifi, they have their own.
