Clap Along (Because I'm Happy)

I've just discovered this song by Pharell Williams lately and it's been on a loop in my Sony Xperia Walkman. It's just the right song for the way I'm feeling right now. Can you believe how many episodes of Happy Tree Friends show up when you search for this particular happy song in YouTube? Fun thought: the video 1AM lasts for an hour and 4 seconds! I don't mind playing this on a Sunday morning.




So what's the impetus to make me feel happy to be able to listen to Pharell Williams' 1AM song for an hour? Nothing much , just that I passed the Second Level CSC last week. I've also allowed myself a celebration.

My 13 Piece Sampler Buffet from Beauty Selection by Aliza Sim arrived thanks to HappyPH. I'll be showing you its contents on a separate post.  I've done its unboxing in a hospital room of all places!

In a nutshell, it's all about rewarding myself for a job well-done. I've honestly felt proud having addendum bragging rights but I'm now getting ahead of myself. I hope you are happy too!

OMG Acccessories: Nothing Beats Personalized Like A Classic Monogram, ONecklace UK Shows How It's Done

The parcel bag was made in Germany, which was posted by an address in Jerusalem, shipped to an address in the Philippines, sponsored by a shop in the UK. Despite this rather exhaustive travel of a parcel, it made its way into the hands of this blogger.

Looking at all the monograms, I had to recall that both my mom and auntie had kept their monogrammed handkerchiefs-yes, they were a part of that era, and it must have been really charming to mark one's personal belongings with something as elegant as a monogram. People like personalized. It's also a smart idea for gifts and can be a keepsake for many years.

When oNecklace UK asked me to choose which style I preferred, I requested for the  Sterling Silver Circle Monogram Necklace. The package included a Certificate of Authenticity, a box containing my necklace and a gift voucher.

 

At first I thought it was  going to be heavy, but I was surprised that it was just the right size and the pendant was lightweight. The necklace itself adds a touch of elegance to any plain outfit, and it's very glamorous! There's a nostalgic feel to the way this type of monogram is presented, and it's something that I can keep or even give someone with the same initials when the time comes. 

  

oNecklace jewelry are one of the most stunning and contemporary pieces that can be found in the market. All the beautiful creations are found in a state of the art factory, making use of efficient machinery and a highly competent workforce intent on creating personalized jewelry that suit individual style and discriminating taste.

 

I find that the Circle Monogram necklace in silver is very stylish in its simplicity. It's also a smart gift idea and is very elegant. Surely, anyone will appreciate this versatile piece of jewelry. I've been wearing this everyday since I received it and it goes well with corporate and casual outfits. A monogram necklace can also be a surefire gift for someone special come Valentine's Day.

Sundays Are All About Winding Down- Love, Arista

Hi! How are you doing? I hope you’re having a cool weekend! I’m Arista, a year-old chocolate Labrador who lives in a mountain-side property. Over here, there’s lots of fresh air and also grass to roll around in. If other dogs avoid water, I am the first one to launch into it and just play around. I also know how to fetch! My mommy buys me toys that don’t last for more than five minutes, but she tries. She does. 

Mommy right now is busy baking in the kitchen, and I think if I make a good show of my darling eyes, I can make her give me some of that butter cake. Since she left her laptop open, I thought I might do her a favour of narrating to you what Mommy and I did this weekend. Good thing there are photos here to support my claim on how behaved I really am, you know... 

Well Mommy just started reading this paperback version of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen by Paul Torday. She brought it home from a business trip last month and realized that it has been months since the last book review, so there you are. She’s also bought more stationery for writing, and Mommy has a weak spot for chocolate milk but she added ice to Swiss Miss with marshmallow instead of drinking it hot. 

There’s another haul from Sample Room that arrived this week. The package includes Probiotics fiber, Celeteque Back Acne Spray, and Calchews in Chocolate and Caramel. Mommy says that the Chocolate tastes like Tootsie Roll! 

Do you see that Reese’s sticks up there? Mommy is crazy for those. She also has two new Kit Kat flavours whose labels she can’t even read. At least I’m smart enough to say that the green one is green tea. There’s Radiant Orchid in the Human Nature eye shadow palette (which I believe is the last one ever out there) and Tropical Rose seems to be a good, healthy color on the skin. #sampleroom

Another thing that excited the both of us is the arrival of Onecklace monogram necklace in silver. Isn’t it lovely? What makes Mommy happy also makes Arista happy! Watch out for a separate post on this. #silver #jewelry #onecklace

And finally, this haul is simply for the babies. Mommy found the green silicon bone at a local supermarket. It’s supposed to clean my teeth and keep me from stealing people’s slippers here in the house. Mommy also had to make sure there’s enough stock of dog soap here at home. I also have a new pink collar. Don’t I look pretty in it? The blue one is Axle's.

See, I told you I am so behaved. Mommy allowed me to stay with her to keep her company. We went for a walk shortly after I was all fresh and clean and smelling good. Mommy has to get more shampoo for me!

 

I also went to say hi to my friends the goats at the back of the house. I promised I didn't bark or harass them. I'm a sweet baby like that.

So I guess that's it. I'm sure there will be more to follow but I do know that it's going to be a busy week for the both of us and Mommy wants to get me a bed of my own so I won't have to really stretch on the hard and cold floor. I'm trying my best to be clean all the time. 

I hope you enjoy your time with family! It's time for me to be a good girl because I smell the cake in the oven calling my name!

Love,

Arista
