If you’re just dropping by, you ought to know that we moved to California (sort of mentioned it here, here, and here too). To American dreams, cheers! π₯ But maybe because I tend to lean towards dramatics (Korean and real life dramas π), I’m having the hardest time adjusting here. #HomesickmuchΒ (I can only shop and watch Korean dramas so much for consolation. Hah.) I guess when you’re used to DIY (do it yourself) as only limited to throwing parties, and everything else is left for others to do (like everything-housework, tutoring, manicure, pedicure, hair color etc.), you’ll be in with a lot of pain and heartachesΒ drama. Hahaha Seriously, I truly miss Manila living. We’re not rich, but we’re comfortable, meaning you’re co-workers will feel for you when struck with yaya (house help) problems. π
That, plus when you’re only major decision to make for a given me-time is either to get regular or gel nail polish. Hah.
When in California, almost everything is DIY.

I can only go with short nails.This is so far my favorite brand. Super easy to apply. Plus, they have superb staying power. Since I only needed to be pretty for few days, I forced them out on the third day. Take note, I had to remove them. Those three days are with bathing and a lot of dishwashing (housework, remember), and still they stayed. I’m impressed! Embracing endless DIY possibilities! Please stay tuned for more. Aja! Aja! Fighting! βπ»
