The Hallotober Tag

I know it’s late to do the Hallotober tag since it’s November in like two days, but I’d like to go and participate in it anyway! Thanks to Izzy for tagging me, and Jordanne for this idea!

Halloween has always been my favorite part of the year. I know some people would say Halloween isn’t something to be celebrated because of its origins, but common guys, it’s 2020! Halloween is fun because you can dress up as literally anyone and go to spooky parties! It’s that one time of the year where everybody suddenly becomes a cosplayer; and everybody suddenly has a supernatural experience to share. I love watching horror movies with my friends and be frightened with them, I don’t know, it makes me feel like we all have to collectively man up and be brave. Teamwork!

1. Whatโ€™s your favourite thing about October?
The thing about October is it makes me excited for the upcoming Halloween. It has that vibe where you want it to be festive like Christmas but at the same time you are looking forward to the trick-or-treating. 
2. Are you a big celebrator of Halloween? 
Yes I am! I make sure every year I have different costumes. Last year I dressed up as Medusa and went on a Halloween party bus! Stay tuned on who I am going to dress up as this year!
3. Whatโ€™s your favourite horror movie?
Thai movies will always be superior in horror for me. My favorite is Shutter (Thai version 2004).


4. Would you rather a cosy night in watching horrors or a big night out in a costume?

If you’d ask me that question 10 years ago I’d choose the first one. But now, I’d definitely pick the latter!


5. Which has been your most favourite costume to date?

The one I’m wearing tonight! So excited to reveal it in my next post!

6. Bobbing for apples or pin the hat on the witch? 
I have no idea what these are, but would love to try them!

7. How do you celebrate Halloween?

The past few years I make sure to dress up and attend parties. When I was younger, all I ever do is watch scary Filipino documentaries (e.g. Magandang Gabi Bayan), and make fun of the re-enactments. lol.
 
8. What’s your least favourite horror? 
The Ring American version. No suspense at all especially if you have already watched the Japanese version.


9. Do you have a favourite trick or treating memory? 
I don’t do trick or treating but my unforgettable Halloween experience was in 2018 when I was in Miami all alone walking around the streets at night. I saw three people consecutively getting arrested by the police. Such horror!
10. What’s your favourite thing about Halloween? 
I all want is seeing everyone dress up as a character and having fun!
11. Scary costume or Silly costume? 
A sexy one! Kidding aside, I’d go for silly.
12. What’s your favourite Halloween candy?
Kisses. I just finished eating them off now.
13. Ghost decorations or skeleton decorations?
Skeleton decorations are so lame. I like the ghost ones better!
I am tagging everyone who is reading this post. I hope you have fun this Halloween (and don’t take it too seriously)!
PS, I just got my new camera lens. That photo up there is the first photo that I took. ๐Ÿ˜‹

    Final destination: Halloween party bus

    I’ve never been on a party bus before EVER – so imagine my excitement when I found out that Star FM is hosting a halloween bus party! There are 4 buses, 4 mystery stops (with games & missions), and 1 exclusive after party! Starting point is at the courtyard across the radio station in George Town and where the bus is going? Nobody knows! 1st stop: Hell, West BayMission: Take a group photo with the devil I was hoping for the bus to go East for a change but oh well this year they decided to rome around West Bay – my district. First task is to take a group photo with the devil (kinda lame but yeah lol). Nobody gave af about the mission,…

  • Motherโ€™s Day and Birthday Celebrations

    Motherโ€™s Day and Birthday Celebrations

    On May 10, my family celebrated both Motherโ€™s Day and my momโ€™s birthday at the Lobster Pot in George Town. Ever since my mom arrived on the island, she had been talking about wanting to eat lobster, so we figured there was no better place to take her than Lobster Pot. We had originally requested an outdoor table when making our reservation because we thought it would be nice to enjoy the waterfront views. Little did we know it was going to be scorching hot that day! On top of that, the restaurant was packed with families celebrating Motherโ€™s Day. We ended up waiting a while before we could finally be accommodated inside. For those who havenโ€™t been, Lobster Pot is one of Caymanโ€™s long-standing…

  • Ocho Rios Day 1: Fern Gully, Rio Cobre, Mahogany Beach

    Ocho Rios Day 1: Fern Gully, Rio Cobre, Mahogany Beach

    Ahh, where do I even begin? Maybe with this: I think I have to come to terms with the fact that now that Iโ€™m older, I get tired so easily. Like, why does waking up early feel like a personal attack on my energy levels? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Anyway, we were up bright and early to pack and start the drive from Clarendon to Ocho Rios. If you didnโ€™t know, Ocho Rios is one of Jamaicaโ€™s most famous tourist spotsโ€”known for its waterfalls, lush greenery, and beach-meets-jungle vibe. Think tropical getaway, but with more culture and spice. My brother-in-law suggested we take the Spanish Town bypass instead of the usual route because of the potholes (seriously, Jamaicaโ€™s roads can humble even the best shock absorbers!). And honestly?…

  • Life Update: Week 2

    Life Update: Week 2

    Hey everyone, how have you been? To be honest, my week was somehow mediocre. It is not necessarily unproductive, but it isn’t as productive as I would like it to be as well. Unlike most people, I physically go to work every other day, and when I’m not, I’m either doing house chores, groceries, or bank runs. I thought everything was okay, until yesterday. To my surprise, I had a really bad panic attack. I thought I stopped having those a long time ago? It has gotten worse from how it used to be before. I was just having my dinner, and the next thing I know I was crying over my food, catching my breath; my hands numb and shaking. I had no idea…

  • Cheers to 2022!

    Happy new year everybody! This is my first post of 2022! How exciting is that? Did you know that I was in the blogosphere since I was in high school… like around 2006ish… 15 years ago! Although ofcourse I kept changing my handle and kept evolving in content that’s why I’m always like a ๋ˆ„๊ตฌ to this world lol. A lot of the lifestyle bloggers I knew back then has stopped writing… and moved on with their lives. I wish I could still stay in that era that inspired me a lot to write. Quite frankly majority of the blogs I come across these days are all for making $$$ off content, building a brand, improving SEO and all that jazz. I genuinely hope I come…

  • Our Memorable Christmas and New Year’s Trip to Florida

    Our Memorable Christmas and New Year’s Trip to Florida

    It’s been a long time since I last posted! It feels so good to be writing on my blog again. Can you believe it’s almost April already? Time flies by fastโ€”everything feels like a blur these days! But let me take a moment to backtrack and share about our unforgettable Christmas and New Year’s trip to Florida last year. Planning the Trip: A Family Reunion Across Borders We invited my parents from the Philippines to join us for a vacation in Fort Lauderdale, where my mother-in-law lives, and later in the Cayman Islands, where we reside. Making this trip happen was no small feat. It took months of preparationโ€”handling paperwork for U.S. and Cayman visas, arranging accommodations, planning tours, and even renting a car for the entire vacation….
