Hitting two birds with one stone...

Hello everyone! I am soooo back :) REASON I was too sleepy to function last night. And the same happened to me tonight. I just woke up at around 2am from my 5 hours nap and now I can't go back to sleep :)

Good thing though 'cause I still owe you two more bazaar posts :) Okay here goes :)

Second on my list is the super sale bazaar at world trade center. Actually, I was a bit surprised that super sale bazaar wouldn't be at Rockwell because it usually is. Oh well, the good thing about this particular supersale bazaar is that a some of the proceeds will go to World Vision Ph. My family, my mom in particular, has been helping kids from World Vision PH. If you want to help out kids from provinces however you don't have time to visit them personally or volunteer in the activities, what you CAN do is sponsor for a child's education. It's actually really nice because it's affordable, easy to do, and you are secured that your donations will be allotted for your chosen child's education. Regularly, they would send you school report cards with the current picture of your sponsored child and the BONUS? The child will actually write you small notes, greeting cards, etc.

So knowing that some of the proceeds will go to world vision, I tagged along a few friends with me -- Khae, Chad, Dianne and Christian. So, yipee for World Vision :)

Tickets
Khae was making fun of me since I was busy looking at baby stuff. She'd joke around saying, "pipicture-an kita at lalagyan ng caption na SPOTTED: Alex buying baby stuff??" Well, typical Alex and Khae jokes. Anywoot, after several rounds, we decided to eat dinner somewhere then of course! Starbucks time! So we had dinner, then straight to Starbucks only to find out that it was midnight already! I guess you really dont notice the time much when you're having a great time. Guess what we did at Starbucks? We SERIOUSLY did some planning for our much awaited 2012 travel adventures.



Planning Mode: ON

A few hours later, sleepiness and tiredness kicked in, we decided to call it a day. On our way home, I asked her to take my outfit shots for me. YAY!!!!!!



Thank you Karren G for the outfit shots :)

So now, the last but definitely not the least on my list (that rhymes!) is... *drum roll* World Trade Center Christmas Bazaar! Every year, we (my mom, sis and I) make it as one of our christmas traditions to visit this bazaar. Although I must admit that it's crowded and its the type of bazaar where you can't really have an easy breezy shopping day, but it's really a nice place where you can do your Christmas shopping for gifts.

For only Php50.00 entrance fee, you can actually finish your entire list, stick to your Christmas budget and you get to see a lot of choices. Another good thing for us (my mom, sis and me) is that we can shop for gifts together because the stalls there cater almost ALL types of people and ages. If your budget is a bit on the high side, you can buy Rustan's products at a lower price compared to the usual mall price. You can buy Avent or goody products. If you're looking for something fashionable for a trendsetter friend, you can find it there too since some online shops are also there.

This year, I went there twice. A bit lesser as compared to the last few years though.

Among all the bazaars I went to, I guess these three are one of the nicest. Though I am planning to catch the Global Pinoy bazaar this year since I read nice feedback about it.

And since my sister loves me and supports me a lot, she was kind enough to take outfit photos for me. Apologies for the no make up look though since I was thinking of a very laid-back, bazaar-ready look.





I took her photo too since she loves her maxi dress outfit.

Whew! So that's just about it. In a few hours is my sister's baby shower so I better hit the sack now.

Til my next post!

Ciao Bellas,
Alex
