August began as a fairly slow month for me so I thought it would just pass me by without anything significant happening. I couldn't be more wrong as this month turned out to be one of the most jam-packed ever! :)
This month has not been kind for my wallet though as I think I spent a lot on a
new phone, a
new phone line, a bunch of books, and a lot of other things that are too cute not to buy. Such a bad timing, too, as I really, really HAVE to save money now that our Singapore trip is (gasp!) less than two months away. I am not complaining though, I love everything I bought hee.
Here's my monthly round-up of pretty little things. For August, I loved:
- Catching up with friends I haven't seen in a while, spending time with friends I never get tired of being with everyday, and meeting friends for the first time!

Classmate and friend from highschool Jess, me, my bestfriend Jerome, and his twin Jonas

Our department had a teambuilding last August 21.
Marsha and I weren't able to stay long though as I accompanied her to Medical City for her checkup. |

Say hi to my manager, TL Carlo :D |
This month I also got to meet blogfriend
Mai for the first time. You can read my post about it

Wore my gladiator sandals last Monday when I met with my Sigaw girls. Unconventional fashion choice, but I think it suits me just fine :D |

A present from Meream :)
I came home last Sunday to this pretty box of awesome. The love pack contains a typewriter trinket box, a compass, a journal, a pretty Scrabble tile necklace (she even made my favorite pattern again!), and a sweet note. Thank you so much Meream, and I hope you will come back to Manila again soon! |
