I have always wanted to try out some new pamper spots around Cebu and maybe just around our place here but to some point, I never had the time. So when I found out that a new beauty and wellness hub is about to open I was excited to share the good news.

Selina's Castle of Beauty and Wellness opened its second branch here in Cebu for all beauty and spa fanatics. After the successful launch of the partnership between Calayan Medical Group and M. Lhuillier Group last March, the ML Calayan is now celebrating another company milestone - the opening of Selina's Castle of Beauty and Wellness.

Yo!

This coming December 06, 2015 is a night of recognition and the awarding of the best of the best bloggers in town. Woot! The Best Cebu Blog Awards (BCBA) is celebrating it's 8th Awards Night. yes you heard it right!

As co-presented by Smart Communications, Inc.,  BCBA will once again acknowledge the excellent works of Cebu - Based Bloggers over the year. Isn't this exciting enough? ^_^ I can personally get to meet some awesome bloggers whom I follow and secretly stalk online. ^_^ Apart from that I get to witness the winners receive their respective awards. To be honest, I am very grateful to be invited to grace this event.

I am deeply honored to be one of the five finalists under the Best Cebu Personal Blog Category. Honestly, I never thought that my blog would reach this milestone. I simply dedicate this blog to all moms out there especially my fellow Cebu Nanays, fellow mommy bloggers, to my mom and to all single moms who are just pure awesome. Also, to our little angels, our kids, our babies who fill our lives with so much joy. Our kids are our inspiration and thus, my blog yomommainthetropics.com. It is with real gesture of love and sincerity that I make 'hugot' all my personal thoughts, creative ideas for the home, even make shift toys which I haven't gotten the time to post yet. I will soon! My blog is bit personal but there is nothing more universal than being real. Thank you so much BCBA for this recognition. Win or lose.

The Bautista family showed how they enjoy the many conveniences at home made possible by Samsung products. Samsung presented their products in a fun way through a short drama that portrays a typical Filipino family who's just upgraded their home with Samsung's latest appliances.

Last November 10, Samsung Happy Home Roadshow finally hit the shores of the Queen City of the South. Cebu Bloggers Society were invited to grace the event held at Ayala Center Cebu Activity Center. I was grateful to be a part of it I was filled with amazement with their products for the family and the home.

This family experience was showcased during Samsung Happy Home roadshow featuring Samsung’s range of new products, including Television, Home Entertainment Solutions, and Digital Appliances. The roadshow kicked off in Manila last August and was followed by Mindanao leg in Davao and Cagayan de Oro and Visayas leg in Bacolod. On their fifth run, Samsung Happy Home roadshow went to Ayala Center in Cebu and will continue in key cities such as Naga and Iloilo throughout the year, letting more families see how Samsung could help them create a happy home.

What a great day to celebrate the Valentines Day! I hope you are having a blast as you are reading this post wherever you are in the side of the world.

Today, I am really honored and humbled to be a part of the 7th Anniversary Celebration of Cebu's Premiere Blogging Community.

Blogging has really been a great part of my journey as an individual and as a person. I have grown so much and learned a lot from it. Writing was always my solace. My sole companion and confidant.
Although i wished i had the chance to speak of so many things and share to anyone what my life feels like. ;)

Being into blogging shaped me and molded me as an individual.
There were times when blogging was my only escape. But now, it has become my passion.
Alongside all the stories I have read, and some I have told about, my greater goal is to really help.

To educate and help someone thru my blog.
Blogging makes me so happy whenever I get feedbacks and responses and it was what inspired me to go on. Despite all the challenges, blogging was definitely worth it after all.

Not only did I get to have an online home, I get to know other bloggers and instantly felt connected.

That I was never alone. That there is also someone like me. That I wanted to somehow belong.
And I knew that it had to be a group whom I will the same passion and vision. A group that will motivate me, encourage and help me to do what I love- blogging, and Blogging for Cebu.

CBSi is that.

I told myself wow, what an awesome group of bloggers. I want to become a part of them too!

And now, I am definitely humbled and grateful to finally become a part of. After many attempts in the past.
Thank you guys, for accepting me in and for treating me like family. Well, my online family. ;)

To this day, I congratulate every blogger. And to CBSi, for the seventh year.
You've come a long way you guys.


This 15th of Feb, CBSi with all its alumni, current and new members will be celebrating their Anniversary at Marriott Hotel.
