Just a few days ago, I talked about my experience watching streaming videos on the iPad mini while hitching on the Smart LTE connection from my iPhone 5. It was really good but it also drained the battery off my iPhone 5 rather quickly.

I just want to dedicate this post to all the mother’s out there, most especially to my mom. Thank you for being a great mother to us, for not taking your “mother hat” off whatever the circumstance is, for always being a mother first above all.

Happy Mother’s Day!
Same goes to my mother friends and family (lalo na sa mga new mothers): Claire, Noee, Anna, Gena, Alina, Sheril, Mel, Therese, Len, Nini, Cathy, and the rest who escaped my mind at the moment.

Unlike women, luxury bags are something men could care less about. Men love sports cars, or exotic cars, or cars in general. So what if you use materials in a sports car on a bag?

Tia and I saw this relatively unknown but elegant bag brand called Dothebag at a hidden store at Bonifacio High Street Central. Its main feature is that its made from the same material as convertible tops.
