More Chairs from the Chairathon Exhibit

I thought I already covered all the chairs from the Chairathon Furniture Design Exhibit which I have posted last time. When I visited Uptown Mall again, there were 12 more chairs displayed on the other side of the lobby -- just opposite to location of the first 14 chairs. I'm glad that they haven't removed the chairs yet and I was still able to take photos of them.

Here are the rest of the movie-inspired chairs:

From Simpsons the Movie. I thought it was from a cartoon where it rained all foods. what movie was that again?

Inspired from The Little Prince. I think this was the part where the grown up was drawing/doodling something and he asked some persons to identify what it was. An elephant was an answer that was given.

When I saw this, I immediately said --Ahhh.. Belle! 

From Harry Potter (?) How? What gives? What is the relation? Please explain so that I may be enlightened. 

At first I thought I was looking at a confession box. I did not even see the legs of the chairs there. Well, it says this is inspired from the movie Maze Runner.

The designer offered us two movies where she patterned this chair from -- Tangled and The Grudge. Do you agree?

No explanations. From the shadow backdrop it's Peter Pan. But that was only a standee and not part of the chair. Without it, I cannot relate the chair to Peter Pan.. Can you?

I get this one. From The Black Swan. It represents the two personalities of Natalie Portman as she struggles with the pressure of stardom, maternal conflicts, and perfectionism.

It's cute right? Cogsworth would be very happy with this.

EVE is that you???

I did not see The Exorcism of Emily Rose, but this chair has an Eastern flair on it with matching bamboo sticks as side designs.

Okay...Where's the Fault here?

So there you are Lovies...
What designs do you like and appealing to be added to your home?

The Mommy Blogger's Workshop

Hello Lovies!

Yesterday, I attended the first ever Mommy Blogger's Workshop organized by Good Housekeeping Philippines.

I was so excited because this is the first seminar-workshop in blogging that I have attended since I started my blogging career (yep, I want to move on to that next level-- making a career in blogging). So, here what transpired during this event.

Chairathon Furniture Design Exhibit

I always arrive an hour earlier at my workplace and I usually check out what stores are now open at Uptown Mall. I was surprised to see that there's this furniture exhibit at Uptown Mall. It's called Chairathon: A Furniture Design Exhibit.



As the title of the exhibit suggests, the furniture piece is all about chairs. But what is unique and exciting about these chairs is the idea that these were all movie-inspired. The designers selected their favorite movie and created a chair masterpiece that will surely transfer you to a world away from reality and can really be enjoyed by everyone.

Can you guess what movies these chairs were designed from?

Let's Cook: Spicy Shrimp and Sardines Fettuccine Aglio Olio

Hello Lovies!

It has been awhile since I posted about my cooking. I was too buy with many things that I had not even updated this blog for quite some time. Well, I just want to start this post by saying that I hope you all had a blessed Holy Week. As for me and my family, we just stayed at home and enjoyed quite and restful time. Especially myself, that I need to catch on my sleeping hours.

Since today is Good Friday and the "no meat" religious practice is still very much observed by all Catholics, I cooked this simple pasta dish -- Spicy Shrimp and Sardines Fettuccine Aglio Olio


Disclaimer: The recipes that you are about to read and follow are all prepared, cooked and eaten by myself and my family. I did not go to a culinary class. My cooking skills are 100% genetic. I rarely measure my ingredients, but they are pretty damned close to the exact recipes I have read in cookbooks and internet sites. I use ingredients that are available to me. There is no guarantee that your cooking will come out tasting like what I made. If you make something here that you are not completely satisfied, feel free to post here and rant your complains, but don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Lines from the Book: The Girl on the Train

Hollowness: that I understand. The holes in your life are permanent. You have to outgrow them, like tree roots around concrete; You mold yourself through the gaps. All these things, I know, but I don't say them out loud, not now.

I have never understood how people can blithely disregard the damage they do by following their hearts.
 There’s nothing so painful, so corrosive, as suspicion.
 I have never understood how people can blithely disregard the damage they do by following their hearts. Who was it said that following your heart is a good thing? It is pure egotism, a selfishness to conquer all.
 “When did you become so weak?” I don’t know. I don’t know where that strength went, I don’t remember losing it. I think that over time it got chipped away, bit by bit, by life, by the living of it.
 Being the other woman is a huge turn-on, there’s no point denying it: you’re the one he can’t help but betray his wife for, even though he loves her. That’s just how irresistible you are.

Reading Can Seriously Damage Your Ignorance

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but with this habit, you will be hooked to the world beyond limitless knowledge, different places or realms that you have not visited before, people that will teach you life's lessons and an adventure that you will surely talk about in the years to come.
