Random Snippets #7: You know, the usual..

Oh no, not another random insomiac entry!?

  • I’ve been obsessing on random things/people lately. Yesterday, I went on a Shawn Mendez overdrive. Ang cute niya hihi paveve. Today, I literally spent 2 hours watching the whole X-factor journey of Little Mix. Sino naman kaya tomorrow?
  • I wonder how facebook is doing. Ano na kayang mga ganap dun? Char!
  • Update on my video editing practice, I managed to start something! The question is, when will I finish it? Or will I ever finish it.
  • Di parin ako nakakapag gym (rolls eyes) BUT I managed to squeeze in small exercises and cut a bit of food out. Pwede na! Feeling ko ang payat ko na talaga, charot!
  • I had this random thought a few days ago and so I (again) spontaneously cut my bangs. And as usual, FAIL! Ang chaka lang. All these years I always decide to cut it then fail then promise not to do it on my own again. It’s a cycle na. I guess I just have to wait for months/years for it to grow.
  • Ang cute nung Kissing Booth sa Netflix lakas maka high school feels! Also, bakit hindi ganun yung high school ko? Hahahah!
  • I’m off today and touring cousins in London! Shot tayo tonight, Soho area perhaps?

Random Snippets #6: Wee hours

Oh you know, just the usual insomnia driving me here again at this hour. I don’t even have any clue what to write about. Let’s see…

  • June na! As usual, I promised to start my serious fitness chenelyn program this month. I’m pretty sure this time, I will probably take it seriously because a) It’s in my journey to 30 plan b) I no longer fit my clothes and get tired so easily c) I want to have something that this diet/exercise might help me achieve it and d) Text na ng text young gym saken, namimiss na daw ako so, pray for me guys.

 

  • Whoa, talking about that, I just realised it’s already freakin’ June! Half the year na! Why is time running so fast these days? Kalma please. I still have a ton to do

 

  • I need more practice in editing videos. I believe I’m improving but I want to experiment a bit more with stuff. I’m thinking of actually making my own version of wedding film since I have the raw files anyway. Hmmm… that’s an idea.

 

  • I should probably get some sleep.

 

  • My MAC just turned 3! (Obvious bang ang random ng mag naiisip ko?)

 

  • I’m currently obsessed with Bath & Body Work’s Japanese Cherry Blossom hand sanitiser and I’m worried I might run out of stock soon. US friends, buy me some please? :D

 

  • Was able to buy tickets to Jo Koy! I’m excited! This will also be my first time to experience a proper “stand-up comedian” show in a big hall. Interesting.

 

  • I’m seeing Incubus again on September! Sooooo happy! Now I’m on a mission to get to their meet and greet. Hook me up please!?

 

  • I just realised I bought a new book to read so I’ll probably do that now. Ta!!!!!

Chamonix Chamonix Shapopo

It has become a (sort of) tradition that instead of celebrating birthdays with food or booze or party, we just treat ourselves with travel- whether going somewhere new locally or take advantage of the cheap travel around Europe. Since we had to hold off with travel last year for the wedding, this year we figured it’s time to get back in the game- in short, nakaluwag luwag na po mga besh! So for this year’s birthday (Hubby my labs) destination… Bonjour Chamonix, France!

Ever since our trip to Zermatt (our favorite destination to date), I’ve always been amazed by the Alpine regions. So majestic and breathtaking (and I mean that figuratively AND literally)! And also, contrary to most people’s opinion, I adore snow.

Although Chamonix is in France, due to its distance, we opted to land through Geneva Airport and just ride the bus (1 hour only) getting to our destination. We didn’t pre-book any bus tickets anymore since there were loads offering by the airport anyway. But, if you’re planning to go, some bus companies offer advance booking anyway (just so wala nang hassle when you land). Also, there are different bus companies that offer a different price range so it would be handy to research beforehand to save a bit of money.

The weather forecast before we flew was rainy and cold. Much to our surprise, it turned out to be sunny after all! We were also lucky to have booked this B&B that offered this awesome view. Perfect for the gram!img_18231

Our itinerary was quite simple, Alps, Ski/Snowboard and chill. On our first day, we literally just stayed by our accommodation, had 3 hour naps, ate dinner and birthday salubong. On day 2, we just went around the small town then to the top!

I swear everything around just looked like it was straight out of a desktop background. I sometimes catch myself smiling at these awesome and unbelievable views just because of it’s sheer beauty.

Going to the top isn’t that cheap. It costs 60 euros to the peak- Mont Blanc, and you can also avail the Midi for 31 euros.

I’ve already learned my lesson from the last time. Take note, there’s thin air with this altitude so if you’re asthmatic like me, it helps to bring your inhaler. Also, since you’re at a closer proximity to the sun, use sunscreen and any protection from its rays. And oh, bring extra clothes to change in especially if you plan to play around the deep snow. And finally, don’t wear Vans lol.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t ski season anymore so there were no stores open to rent the equipments. We ended up just playing around the peak for 3-4 hours then went back down, walked a bit around the town then called it a night. The next day, we went to the other mountain which was basically opposite Mont Blanc

Going up costs a bit cheaper at around 15 euros. We initially planned to go paragliding but.. budget cuts lol

As usual, we just relaxed and did the usual photoshoot

I wish I could show you more pictures but I’m afraid I would run out of memory space here in WordPress lol. Here’s a video I made anyway (Usual travel assignment: Hubby takes the videos, I take pictures then I edit video footages)

Siyempre, nakikiuso din. Charing!
