Ang title sana ng post na ito ay Back to regular programming.. but after a few days, I realized, the title is not apt for what is happening to us, particularly to me and to my routine.

This school year is different from last year.. I have three school boys this school year but I am less haggard.. it feels like, everything’s in proper places.. parang swak na swak lahat.. My routine is quite hectic, umm more hectic than it was last year, but I am surviving it and loving it. I’d wake up at 5 (but working on 4 so I can blog at least an hour), prepare breakfast (hopefully I can squeeze in my Metafit routine.. it’s a work in progress too haha)take bath (make up time!) wake the kids up, give them a bath.. let them eat their breakfast while I enjoy my “me” time aka coffee time.. after breakfast brush teeth then off to school. After dropping them to their respective classrooms, I’ll go home, work then cook lunch. Wake Sati up then off to fetch Sanko and bring the older boys lunch meal.

We usually go to school an hour before Sangko’s dismissal (mahirap na, baka mapaaga ang uwi, magwawala un pag hindi kame nakita) and to make use of the time, I teach Sati while waiting for Sanko (sorta homeschooling but happens on the school hehe)

Before lunch, a few minutes is spent checking on Sangko’s school books and doing his homework. Lunch time is about me, Sati, Sangko with Sir Chief and Maya.. after lunch, nap time..after nap time, tutor time with the older boys.. then work, the cook dinner.. then sleep.. parang robot lang no? but really, I love it! Mahilig talaga ako sa routine and it’s hard pag mejo nalilihis ako sa routine ko.. so far, so good.. sana ma maintain namin haha

Speaking of “me” time and make up time.. last year talaga, I make it a point na I’m in full battle gear before the sun says hi.. pero pagdating ng summer, tinamad na ako mag make up.. I said to myself, this school year, I should be back to full battle gear.. and one afternoon a surprise and a very nice motivation was delivered at my doorsteps:

 Ang bongga di ba! British Invasion!

Collection Cosmetics, one of the hippest and most loved make up brands in the UK, is now here in the Philippines! Get ready to create a make up look that will make you say, “This is me and I love it”.

The box I got includes blush, mascara, lipstick (and lip gloss), eye liner, foundation and a BB cream.. I’d be super biased ha.. pero to date, this is the most exciting loot I received from being a blogger! Yay, thanks so much Collection Cosmetics, ready na ulit sa full battle gear days! (watch out for the reviews on my cosmetics blog: My Painted Lips)
