23 days

Hello I haven't blogged in a long time. I've been so busy reading and watching tv series lately and I just didn't feel like writing.I have like 2 books to review and I just can't write. I actually want to write a review on The Hunger Games series and The Book Theif but I don't feel like writing. Maybe tomorrow or the next day. :(

I have about 23 more days in Saudi, I have to make the most of it, although I really don't know how to do that. Well, I actually want to submerge my self in classical art, literature and music, so I might do that cause I don't know how I will ever have time to do anything I want when I go back to busy ol' Manila.

Banoffee Pie.

Banoffee pie is like one of my favorite-est desserts of all time. I'm really a cream/caramel person I think chocolate is sometimes too much. But I still love both. I just love cream and caramel more. :)
I've always wanted to learn how to make banoffee pie so I searched for recipes online and I found one which is here. I followed everything but I had a little bit of trouble making the toffee. It took so long and I wasn't sure if it turned out right. I showed my mom and she told me to just broil it on the stove top just to make the toffee. I don't think it turned out right, it still tasted a little like condensed milk, I think you need to leave it in the oven  for like 2 to 2.5 hours. Also I think i put too much toffee haha. Oh well, I'll improve it next time. :)

All in all, I didn't think this was an easy dessert to make and it took a long time to make because of the toffee. But it turned out really good and everyone loved it.

On dressing up.

I'm such a girly girl. I love love love to dress up and get made up. I love getting new clothes. I'm not really a fashion person because I don't have that much money to buy really nice expensive clothes but I have my own style. Anyways, my sister and were bored one weekend and after looking at tons of japanese magazines we decided to have our own little "photoshoot" and dress up. We got most of the clothes we wore from Forever21 and New Look. Here are some of the pictures:
