I hope you enjoy it. Please let me know if you have any requests for more covers thank you!

Another great find at RUINS!

Ruins, is a small "tiangge" or Greenhills like shopping complex located in BF homes Paranaque. It is sandwiched between Pergola and Jolibee along Aguirre St. quite hidden by all the hussle and bussle of the BF community. Most southern folk from the Alabang/BF/Las Pinas area are very familiar hidden shopping treasure that is Ruins and mostly head there for their "Fake" DVD's, cheap trinkets, and other great finds.

I decided to head there today with Raiza (www.misspopquiz.tumblr.com) to buy a movie for us to watch at home on our date day. Whilst walking around and killing time we happened to pass by a store selling watch boxes! Perfect since I still did not have a watch box for my collection of watches. I had been looking online for one the past few days and most were in the 3,000 peso to 7,000 peso range. It just so happened that this store was selling THE EXACT SAME WATCH BOX I had liked from one of the online stores I had been looking at for ONLY 750 pesos! The sales lady even gave me 50 pesos off on the box making it a steal at 700 pesos! Here is my great find at Ruins :

Do you smell that?

I'm a little obsessive compulsive when it comes to my morning routine and getting ready to leave the house. I wake up, take a shower, brush my teeth, pick out my clothes, style my hair, and spray on my cologne. Getting ready is definitely never complete without spraying on my cologne. I always feel more confident knowing that I can make a statement without even saying a word, just with the way I smell and in my line of work confidence is essential. Around 10 years ago most people would have said perfumes and colognes were just for women, but the modern day man knows the importance of smelling good!

I'd like to share with you guys some of the colognes I enjoy using which might appeal to you guys too. I have  6 colognes which I generally prefer :

Davidoff Cool Water
Davidoff HOT Water
Kenzo for Men
Calvin Klein EUPHORIA
Lacoste RED
Body Shop Activist




 I like to use the Calvin Klein and the Lacoste for regular day use because they both smell fresh with that nice hint of spiciness.







The Kenzo and Davidoff perfumes are my choice for my night out colognes. They are much stronger, muskier, and distinctive. Perfect for a night out at a club or on a date.

Wrist SWAG

Around 6 months ago I did my first commercial. I'm not sure if many of you saw it but it was the new McCafe commercial that Mcdonalds released late this year. Well anyway, fast track to mid November and my paycheck  finally arrives! I decided to go and buy the one that I didn't have yet.. a nice watch :) So off I went with my girlfriend Raiza (www.misspopquiz.tumblr.com) to Greenbelt to look for one that fit me perfectly. I ended up buying a Rose Gold Tommy Hilfiger watch which I fell in love with.



After buying my first watch I had the sudden urge to.. buy 10 more :| HAHA! I realized my love for the beautiful, intricate, shiny little time keepers. I had to have another one. I ended up getting another Tommy Hilfiger watch this time with a white face and sterling silver bezel , and a Emporio Armani Classic dress watch. I feel like this is just the beginning of a new obsession of mine.




and i'm now saving up (since i'm broke from all the watch shopping HAHA) for a vintage Chrome Casio watch that caught my attention when I saw someone wearing it around the St. James Bazaar. If any of you readers out there know where I can get one of a good price please let me know :) I cannot wait to add to my collection!


If you guys have any suggestions on nice watch models or stores where I can get a great deal please comment down below. I really appreciate it!
