7 Budget friendly gifts for a girl

September is the month where all the girls I know are going to celebrate their birthdays, I am already on the lookout for the most inexpensive gifts with quality and surely they'll appreciate. I would admit I found myself searching for the items that I wanted for myself but I was surprised that most of these girls like the items that I searched for!

So as a big help for all of you, I know you might be looking for the ultimate deal around P100 range to P2,000 for the most expensive ones, so on this post, I have already searched and jot them down.

I used Shopee but please be informed that I am neither affiliated or being collaborating, I only found it easier to purchase the items available at their website.

There were some items that I did purchase from them before and the reviews are all correct. They do take too long to deliver the items and I almost thought that they were not coming at all but they did come and I was glad that I found a good quality purchase from some.

So without further ado, here is my top list of budget gift suggestions for your female friends

April Skin Pink Mirror

P380.00

Your female gals would appreciate this customizable pastel pink mirror by April Skin since not only would they be able to check and use the mirror for dolling-up but they would definitely love the idea of choosing the best design that they want for the back cover.

P129.00

available in colors

Shopee ratings:

4.1 out of 5

The bold swerving cut umbrella is going to protect your girl friends from being tortured in the heat of the sun or drench in the rains. You can be assured that the umbrella will be able to handle strong winds as this umbrella is wind proof.

The unique part of the umbrella is that it shows a floral appearance when it is in contact with water. I do think you'll definitely win her heart in this simple magic!

It is made out of Carom cloth and metal frame.

Dior inspired mirrored teardrop shades/sunglass

P299.00 - P360.00

available in colors

My ratings:

Korea Travel luggage bag Clothes

P150.00

My ratings:

4.5 out of 5

On the-go girl friends would be saved from getting all the hassle of organizing their travel necessities if you give the gift to her.

She can divide and organize necessities by compartments and bring a separate pouch anywhere they need it. These come in cute pastel colors that she would appreciate.

Pastel collection Suede Caps

P150.00

My ratings:

4.9 out of 5

Whether your girl friends are a boyish type or girly in nature, she would love this caps to use because not only does it hold the clean minimalistic style on trend in the market but she would love your concern in protecting her head and eyes from the sun with these gifts.

With all the lists that I was able to give to you bear in mind the most important factor of giving gifts is your thought of giving it to them. No matter what it is you give to them your thought always counts!

My birthday gift Wish list

I feel excited about my birthday coming up next week. I already had written a blog post of my birthday wish lists but due to accidents, the computer was reformatted and my first write-up was not recovered, I was devastated since I was inspired to write at that day which only comes once in a while but I won't let that spoil the fun of documenting my thoughts for my birthday soon.

September started out smoothly for me, I suddenly have this burst of inspiration the moment I woke up and read some of dizzybrunette blog posts. Her photos were fun and colorful and I'm amazed as to how she connects with her audience!

Upon writing this wish list I realized that I have become practical in what I wanted in life, I would mostly yearn for those that can help me on my dreams, I can say that I've matured a lot especially just interacting with so many people I met along the way, they helped me become the better person I can be proud of.

My list starts with a learning based gift, I am always living by the motto of my alma matter "As we live we learn ". I admit that my former school has influenced me to pursue what I wanted to do in my life and I am thankful for that.

The first on my list is:

1. A Japanese intermediate to advance course book for speaking and writing

Realization struck me when opportunity followed wherever I go, my childhood dreams have come haunting me cause I tried to turn back and give up on my dream of pursuing the language I would most likely love to learn. I may know basic Japanese at heart but I realized I needed to continue what I have started and finish them. I fell in love with Japanese because of Anime, games, vocaloid and their culture, and right now I thirst for even more knowledge about Japanese language. I remember that I have wished for a Fushigi Yuugi manga with a basic Japanese writing course book from my cousin when he asked me I didn't hesitate to tell him but when I was trying to understand the writings I realized basic courses are not enough to help me read all of them so books about intermediate to Advanced courses would be most helpful for my journey of learning Nihongo.

2. Professional HD Makeup with Vanity train case (portable version)

This wish may be too expensive but It has been years that I needed these especially now that my dreams are not only knocking at the door but I feel as if it has barged in and I am glad it did.

I would certainly need these babies for my blogging and cosplaying which have become a part of me and continues to do so. The demands are starting to escalate for a better much more clarified works of art for my photos, videos and real life, it's not putting a big deal of pressure, but it would be sweet to deliver quality work. My meetings with international clients and certain people in the industry have made me realize that I am still representing my country no matter what I do and an improvement to the basic tools for slaying the camera and eyes of people are in line. So, I say No pressure at all. Hahaha.

3. A lightweight, large screen Tablet with wireless keyboard.

As mentioned earlier, the demands of my dreams have escalated to a level where in I realized that I need to upgrade for improvement. The tablet would mostly likely be used for my blogging and cosplay write-ups, simple photo and video production at my travels or at home.

4. A conversation with friends.

A simple wish for my birthday would be to reunite with friends. We are all busy with our lives that I missed them so much a simple chat is listed in my birthday gifts. I hope that this message will be read but most of my warmest friends, I miss you, let's have a nice cup of tea, maybe?

5. World Peace and good health for everyone

This is actually my greatest wish of all for the whole world especially to my country. World peace. Some may say that war is inevitable but I feel that the world does not need that right now, Mother Nature has already been threatened for centuries further harm and maybe next time there won't be anymore Earth or humans left.

I can see that many people have become aware of the nature issues and are also doing their part on maintaining balance which is wonderful. Keep up the good work and push more efforts to influence others in doing so.

I also wish for good health to everybody and live their life to the fullest. It would be a great bonus for you to reach your dreams as well as long as your wish will not harm anyone.

So, there you go. I am grateful for everyone reading this and a million thanks to the one who is generous to give one of these gifts for my birthday. I am not requiring anyone to send me these gifts, but if you do. I say, Thank you so much in advance!

I'm grateful for God's grace in the blessed 100 days before Christmas to come, because of it I was able to experience his world that he created and met lovely people.

On this month of Birthdays, what are your birthday wish list? I would want to know! Write a comment down below or you can directly email me.

and to those celebrating their birthdays this month too:

Happy Birthday to you!

A profoundly perfect midnight diner to watch out for

Shinya Shokudo

disclosure: I do not own the rights to the pictures, these are screenshots of the series and movie, all rights to production of Shinya Shokudo.

I’ve never felt this warmth over food and company from others. Shinya Shokudo got everything right in the feels, it was the heartfelt perfect combination of good food and a family warmth environment, people haven’t realized it yet but this is what most people are looking for, a place they feel welcome most of the time, where they can freely express their emotions and share laughter with others.

My first look:

My first impression of the series attracted my attention to the song itself. They had chosen a set of modern day Japan to combine with a traditional inspired song.

I thought that it would make me feel bored in a few seconds since the scene is simple with a man serving his customers and letting them share their life stories.

but then...

I found myself clicking the next episode to another and the next thing I knew I was researching in sites of where I can watch more of the series.

Scene Settings set the mood:

Shinya Shokudo’s interior is a traditional Japanese type of diner that I’m envious to experience dining in, the wooden interiors kept the customers warm from the cold weather in Japan and the U-shaped table seating makes it inviting to make a conversation friendly environment.

How did Master bring together a group with different personalities?

I’m surprised as to how Master was able to bring harmonious relationships among his customers, despite the customer’s attitude differences and walks of life, Master was able to keep them together even celebrating Christmas and New Years together like a family gathering.

The place makes me want to reflect and take it slow for a moment. I’ve been on a fast-paced day to day life that I forget to loosen up and let go, because of it, I suffered some consequences. Master has this certain aura that you would want to share that feeling that can set you free, he was able to dig deeper into the situation of his customer by only listening, he may say a few sentences but he will definitely make you realize something.

Master's "Image":

He is definitely the “Father” of the house. His very own words will not manipulate you to make a decision but will open options that lead to a solution or make you reflect, how definitely lucky for the customers to have someone like him. You see, some people may not have realized it, others are blessed they have met a certain “master” in their life, but others didn’t have the chance to.

Memories of each food:

Master serves the food with my big question in mind, how was he able to know which to serve that will definitely touch the hearts of his customers. Each episode contains a story relating to a meal. It was not only Master’s delicious cooking that the customers are attracted to but a certain meal that made an impact in their life or a certain memory had reminded them made an everlasting impression.

an example:

Such an example on one episode of the Butter rice is about a taste tester who chose Master’s simple meal over the expensive five star meal he criticizes everyday, the butter rice had reminded him of a certain event in his life and combined with the warm, inviting atmosphere of Shinya Shokudo, reminiscing the past became as sweet as candy.

Message to production:

Make more series, please!!

I have finished all the series, manga and movie and I would want more series, it’s selfish of me to ask but it’s become addicting for me to know what happens next. Master must have felt the same, from a view of his workplace. His customers became an entertainment to him as well, like watching a television drama but more interactive and real life. I think Master has the best television drama/comedy etc. in his diner.

My Acknowledgement:

I gave thanks to Netflix when I discovered this series, if I hadn’t got the recommended title and striking picture of “Master” Shinya Shokudo’s main protagonist, I would never feel this serenity, it’s actually on a perfect timing, I have made a big decision in my life again due to my current condition. It turned out heartbreaking for me, I’m sorry that I could not certain disclose some specific information due to privacy issues but, to be honest, the film became my stress therapy and reflection.

All actors and actress played the parts well! Cheers to everyone!

This video is my favorite ending song of Shinya Shokudo, Kindly play and hear the song if you can.

"Virgin Hair" secrets

trixia salonga, yourbestpicks, hair, beauty, selfie

When rainy season started this July, the changes in weather had made an impact on one's health. One part of the body which is often neglected is our scalp.

We may have different views, but upon my experience, a proven technique to achieve Ultimate hair with the capability to regenerate even with exposure to harsh chemicals or heat is full attention and care to the scalp.

Hair strands once tremendously damaged may not be able to be recovered easily even with the application of keratin treatment, the treatment may be able to make the hair look healthy on the outside but not on the inside.

The body is capable of repairing or self-heal from damages and one best way to help the body in doing so is to consume healthy foods to aid in the process. Eat foods high in fiber, protein, examples are fish and meat, protein will help in the build up repair and you'll have healthy, beautiful hair in no time.

I use my real hair for my cosplays, blogging or modeling and the treatments and harsh chemicals I place in my hair are countless, but most people have complimented on how I even get thick and bouncy hair.

Thinning of hair is a challenge to most people and that moment happened to me in the past, it took me a while to formulate the best remedy but it was definitely worth the wait.

My last visit to the salon, my hair was given the title of "Virgin Hair", even though we had disclosed about the treatments that we had through for the past years, upon their further inspection, they still called it "Virgin Hair". I chuckled while telling them the history of how harsh my hair was treated before and even they were shocked.

P.S. The Salon I went to have professionals that are able to check the hair's healthy state, for real.

Dandruff was present during my first month after the treatment and it came to the point that the flakes were starting to get embarrassing. Imagine that I was actually being photographed and speaking to VIPs on my blogging interviews and the flakes were all over the place.

Dandruff due to the dry scalp is expected, the worse part is only the appearance of the flakes but the feeling of irresistible itchiness. People notice a lot when I scratch my head a lot and can give them a wrong impression.

The cold weather affected my scalp resulting it to become drier and admittedly lost a big blogging opportunity only because of this problem.

The last time another cold weather came, I was prepared. I researched and talked to professionals on how to solve the dry scalp issue especially what product what I am going to be used for shampoo.

The best thing about this is I found an article on a website about the top 10 shampoos to fix your dry scalp issue, where you can find all the information of what shampoo to use, guaranteed budget friendly.'

You will be able to see an in depth comparisons of the shampoo brands with sizes, what its good for, the active ingredients and to make it easier, links to buy it on Amazon.

A thorough description of each product, tips, options, verdicts, pros, and cons are provided as well. The website is updated for the year 2017.

Just remember to check the best shampoo for you, test it out if you have any allergies to the product by applying a small amount on your skin and wait for 5 mins. If any itching or irritation occurs, do not continue the usage.

The main important part is whenever my hair is subjected to any harsh treatment, I would let my hair take a "rest". I would only apply shampoo and NEVER COMBED my hair when damp.

Yup, that's true, I don't comb it when damp. I go to work or take a walk outside wearing the "wet look" signature and some gave me a laugh but it didn't matter to me because there would be no way, I will add more damage on my hair thru wrong combing or be using the hair dryer.

I don't want you to experience the same scenario, one option that I do whenever I cannot do the air dry + wet look is to schedule my bath earlier than expected before heading to any important event or occasion.

Continous practices of above suggestions and people could not believe how strong and healthy my hair became after a month. On my first week, I got rid of dandruff and third week, hair is bouncy again, then the fourth week it was stronger than ever and less hair fall.

The results and the duration might vary in people depending on how committed they are and what products they use on their scalp, but I'm always open to how these suggestions turned out for you?

If you may have experienced dry scalp or dandruff and tried out the above methods, you can comment below and ask me. Let's talk about how we can get you the real doll healthy hair. Oh and don't forget to subscribe or click G+ for news and updates on my next blogging post.

Tough Phone Firefly Mobile E-100 Max Disaster Phone

Today I will introduce to you a special gadget that we tested to undergo extreme situations in order to give you a very important information which might help you, especially in emergency cases.

This is not an advertisement, I bought this phone because I am always on the search for rare gadgets.

So without further ado let me introduce to you a phone last released in the year 2015 that caught my attention, Firefly Mobile E-100 Max!

E-100 Max is a rugged basic phone that you'll need even in emergencies and toughest situations.

The price is P899 with a 1-year warranty and has the battery life of 5500 Mah, tried and tested to last without charging for a month. At first, I had doubts if I should take the unit, but Firefly Mobile always had a good record to me when I bought a new phone from them a year ago, right there I inquired of the specifications:

5500mah Power Bank

Dual Sim

Tough Phone
Fog Light Torch Camera

2 MP Camera

Mini USB plug

Bluetooth

FM Radio

We did a test in order to find out if this phone is worthy of being called a tough phone.

1. Water Test ( 1 foot deep)
A dipper was used about 1 foot deep and we soaked the phone for a minute or two, phone is working.
2. Shock Test (5 Feet Height)
Dropping the Phone from 5 feet High, no internal system damage, few scratches.

3. Torch Test (lasts a week turned on)
We turned on the Flashlight for 168 hours continuous without using other applications.

4. 1 Month Battery Life test Abuse Test
No charging for 30 days with continuous use of messaging ( 2 hours), phone(2 Hours), music via headphone (4 hours played) each day. 1 hour speaker maximum volume, battery level was left 5% after 30 days

5. Speaker Test - Continuously playing song lasts for 2 days in full volume battery was left 20% after 2 days maximum volume.

Comparison:
In contrast to My Phone SOS Phone, this phone has an advantage with its powerful battery life which can assure you will serve you for a month without charging. Imagine the perfect companion that can give you peace of mind that communications intact on the time of great need.

Tough Phone's weight is fair compared to My Phone SOS Phone.
Fist Grip size is good especially for call.

Warranty:

Warranty Card gives the unit with 12 months parts & labor. 6 Months on accessories. Warranty coverage is limited to parts & labor of manufacturer's defects only. No warranty requests will be honored for normal wear and tear, damage due to misuse, alteration to the product, water exposure, signs of obvious abuse and or negligence. Warranty is void if an item is tampered with or opened. An original copy of your invoice must be presented at the time of warranty claim.

Special message to Firefly, please create more units of E-100 Max and make upgrade on the Torch on your next models!

Tips with AT&T Phone account authentication

Have you ever spent your time on the phone trying out to access your account, but you're still unable to pass through their authentication process? It's literally frustrating, right?

Today I am going to give a few tips for you to prevent that scenario from happening or if it did happen, I'll also jot some tips to help you reset your password or help you recover your authentication details.

Uverse account Authentication

1. ATT PIN is IMPORTANT!

So jot it down or get a password app to protect your information, the digits that ATT operators always ask to gain access is the key to every information on your account.

Tip: Register digit pins that are easy for you to remember, the generation of this pin is often asked when you subscribe to a new service.

Once you forget the pin, ask for another option or the operator might ask for more authentication questions.

2. Security Question is your second life line.

When you don't remember your passcode or pin, operators would often ask a question. Be careful on providing the answer as the system might block the number of retries.

Tip: During Security Question generation, the operator might provide some default security question on the system then you will provide the answer, but some can actually personalize the questions, for example, ask your operator to input question of your mother's maiden name then provide the answer.

In some authentication, they may also require for you to ask for your SSN, which often asked by Telcos or Mobility accounts

3. Let them call the Number on File

The last lifeline, once you fail to provide the password or the answer to security question, operators would ask to place you on hold in order to call a number on file as the last step of authentication.

Tip: Let the operator call the number and do not expect them to provide the information since all information on the file are considered confidential until authenticated.

If you have call waiting, tell the operator. Expect an incoming call once the first line is placed on hold, if they get you on the line, the account is fully authenticated, Yey!

If not, the operator will tell you to

Go to an ATT Store near you, provide your ID and reset your password and other Authentication details.

Do not get upset if you'll be needing to go to an ATT store to reset your authentication details, ATT will protect your information the best way that they can and this is how they do it.

Tip: If you actually do not remember any authentication details that you provided when you created the account, it's best to head on to an ATT store and reset the information immediately.
