Oh, Christmas!

My schedule has been hectic for the past few days because of the demands from my professors and teachers. As we all know, there are many things needed to be done and completed before students can truly have their Christmas vacation. In my case, I had to take all the exams for prelims and submit the technical aspect of my feasibility study. The school requirements made me go to sleep super late at night and miss updating my blog. 
And now that everything is over, I am officially back and ready to blog! (But I will be gone again for a long-week vacation at my mom’s province on the 23rd.) Since the busy days are gone, I felt the need to reward myself for completing the first grading period of my hopefully last semester as a college student. So, I went to the mall with my mom for our early Christmas shopping and to the parlor for an instant makeover! 

Among all the things I bought for myself, the bags from Celine are my most favorite! They are perfect for someone like me who admires simple yet classy bags. The good thing about these items is that they are now affordable. Can you believe that the P1,700 / bag is now selling at P1,299 each or P1,000 for two? 

Advance Happy Christmas everyone! Sorry for the low resolution image below. I used my iPad in taking the pic. 
Since I am going to my mom’s place for Christmas, I will need to download more reading materials for me to enjoy my week-long stay at the province. Thanks to Zinio for the free digital subscription of Cosmopolitan! That means I no longer need to pay for my 12 years subscription for my favorite magazine!
How many times did I mention the word “Christmas” in this post? 🙂

    Did I read it right? Free subscription to Cosmopolitan? Good to know, it's been a while since I read the recent edition of Cosmo, not enough space to buy more magazines.
