"If I Were A Store, I Would Be Papemelroti!"

"If I were a store, I would be Papelmelroti!", that was what my friend Vanna wrote on her Facebook wall. I couldn't agree more! The store is a source of inspiration for many. 


Papemelroti is a store that sells stationaries, figurines, crafted jewelry, clocks, and anything that spurs positivism and self-esteem. I love the fact that each time I visit the store, I always come out happier than I was before. Not only that, the price range is affordable enough for everybody. Oh! It's a great deal!


After seeing Vanna's posts about the beloved store, I found out that they recently opened a branch in Glorietta. So I checked it out.

I was so happy to have found the store. Well, you couldn't miss it after seeing that really big sign. Upon following the direction, I was greeted by inspiring quotes on the wall. Awww... and some of them hit me bigtime! Here they are...






And finally... the store... It just has that vintage feel. Time stopped here for me, and the aura of peace overwhelmed me. Well, who wouldn't? The place was full of positive vibes!


Take a look at some of great finds! Photo by Vanna.

I stayed in the store for far longer than I expected. It was hard for me to decide which one to buy, but I chose these two items: a poster and a notepad. Simple ones, I know. However, they carry important that I need to get through life.




The poster had short quotes on Things to Always Remember. There are a bunch of them so I will write a separate post of it in the near future. On the notepad is a saying: The time to be happy is here, the place to be happy is now -Robert Ingersoll. 


Before I left the store, I remembered Vanna and her photos. I would like to share them with you. Here are Vanna's Papemelroti items. Seeing them brings sparkle to my eyes. I love how simplicity and creativity are presented in Papemelroti's cards as seen below.

Wouldn't it be great if everyone could bring inspiration to others too? I would love to be like that. And after visiting Papemelroti and remembering Vanna, I too would like to shout, "If I were store, I would be Papemelroti!".

Presenting The Starbucks 2014 Planner

There are a lot of 2014 planners available out there. For this post, let me share with you the 2014 Starbucks Planner. Every December, people are talking about it! The cover and the layouts are something to look forward to, as well. For this year, it came in four colors: yellow, magenta, brown, and black. The black one is the Philippine edition ( hmmm, tempting! ). I'm very much impressed because the cover feels like leather.  I will feature the magenta one. My friend owns this. I already have a planner for 2014, owning another doesn't make sense at all. Hehehe ~ So, I decided to take some photos of it and share what's inside. (^_^) Left: the box, Right: the planner.  The cover is embossed with coffee icons and Starbucks coffee blend logos. I noticed the symbol for their coffee Sumatra and the elephant icon for Kenya. The 2014 Starbucks Planner in magenta I saw the symbol of the Starbucks coffee blend Sumatra embossed on it. Here is a really cute featur

My Chouhou Gundam

I am so excited to write about the latest addition to my Gundam collection!  This time, I got it from the Gundam Caravan Booth last Best of Anime 2012 ! It was a fun-filled event full of cosplayers and various booths !  This time, we were given the Chouhou Gundam to setup. Uhm, I'm not sure if there is another name for this Gundam. However, the Katakana characters read as "Chouhou", so let me stick with that.  The box of Chouhou Gundam. Hey! This one is new! Other than the manual for setting up, there is also comics inside the box. Wow! It is great as I will get to know more about this Gundam! But time was of the essence, so I decided to move on with building and detailing and set aside reading for later. Comics inside the Chouhou Gundam box. So let us start with the steps in setting up. Here are the photos: We start off with the feet Then the head was next. Putting stickers on is hard, you know. Of course, we need the torso to connect the

Proud to be a Bella

May 21 2011 had been added to my list of memorable days thanks to the girls of Belle de Jour Power Planner. That special day was the BDJ Girls' Rendevous for the month of May. The theme was I Dream, therefore I can.  It was one of the biggest event to date. Almost 100 slots were available to be filled. The invitation to the event was given through various contests. I got my slot in this event through the Belle de Jour Facebook Fan Page. They posted a question at exactly 2:54 PM of May 5, 2011. They posted a question as their status which was: Question, Bellas:   How do you unwind/relax when you're stressed from school or work?   The first 25 BDJ Girls who will comment on THIS THREAD will get a slot at the BDJ Rendezvous: I Dream Therefore I Can! : ) When I saw that post, I immediately wrote "I watch my favorite teleserye." Woah! Believe it or not, I got the lucky 25th slot. Weee! The Rendevous was held in Ace Water Spa in Ortigas. I thought that swimming wi
