Day Two: April 26, 2019
At Universal Studios Hollywood!!.. It's Me and Hubby's 3rd time while it's 1st time for our girls, Nida and Laiza.. We woke up at around 6:30AM and had our complimentary breakfast then hangout at the pool and patio for a while before getting ready for USH.. We left the hotel around 7:30AM and got to USH at around 8AM. We got our front parking for a whooping $50 (because I know our legs will be sore later on and couldn't afford a few steps heading to the general admission parking in the far end of the park and its $20 difference).
Upon arriving to USH, we skipped taking pictures at the famous Universal Studios globe (lol!) as people gathered over there and so we went to the rides instead. The first ride that opens at 830AM (according to their app) is the Harry Potter's, Escape from the Gringotts. Its a simple roller coaster ride but for me who is not really a fan, this could kill me!! lol! but luckily I survived! hahaha. so Me, Nida and Laiza took the ride first while hubby passed first and watched the girls instead..Then we strolled around the Harry Potter Village. A lot of highschool memories has flashback when most of my classmates were into it while I only read till the 3rd book for the purpose of a book review project! lol..FYI: Im not a bookworm. I enjoyed seeing stuff from the movies, like the Hogwart Express, Hedwig in the cage, the Harry Potter Merchandize where Laiza bought her Gryffindor Robe and neck tie and Nida got her husband a Professor Snape's Walking Sticks.
Next ride is the Transformers. It is my hubby's favorite ride LOL!.. its good to get there really early because where is no long wait in the line. Next is the Mummy Returns. Only Nida and Laiza got to get into the ride because the girls were acting up already then after that, we had lunch at Panda Express inside USH. We took the Kung Fu Panda (Shiloh's first ever ride/3d) and Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride that made me feel like flying with Harry while playing Quidditch and I can say that this is my new favorite :) Then for the last ride, we had the 45minute Studio Tour and watched Waterworld Special Effects show.. Right after we get to experience all the rides, the characters started showing up for picture taking and my Shiloh had lots of fun though not seeing the Disney Princesses this time, but she saw Princess Poppy, SpongeBob and Patrick Starr, Minion, Marilyn Monroe, ScoobyDoo, Shrek and Princess Fiona, KungFu Panda, Frankenstein and a lot more.
And to cap off our trip today, we had a mini shopping and food trip at the city walk and we didnt expect the chilly weather around 6PM though. We just hangout at the city walk and infront of Universal Studios before we head back to the hotel.
It was a fun-filled day today and hopefully we will have more travels to look forward too.
Roadtrip again tomorrow as we head back to Newman.
I hope you like the video.

Day One: Residence Inn by Marriott Hotel in Burbank
Hello everyone! Here we go again hitting the road for another exciting trip with my family and now with our friend, Nida and her daughter Laiza. Unfortunately Nida's hubby Bernhard was unable to make it in this trip but hopefully, next time! :)
We left Newman Ca at around 10AM because Bernhard and my hubby, Vince went to Enterprise to get our rental van and my hubby lost the car rental keys for a few minutes at home that caused the delay..HAHA but anyhow, to our surprise, we reached our destination at 3PM without traffic swear! So upon reaching the hotel, we rested for a few minutes then we went to Eagle Rock (i guess thats the name of the road) shopping center in Glendale where we had our late lunch/early dinner at Jollibee as per Laiza's request :) then went back to the hotel to get some good sleep and recharge for Universal Studios tomorrow. :) and as of this writing, its 12:44AM now and I should get going too.. LOL!.. Hubby and the girls are already in the dreamland and so as Nida and Laiza in the room next door.
BTW, here's a vlog of today's trip.
Hope you like it.

I See You!
Hi guys, hope all is well. I would like to share with you my favorite essential that happened to be my latest collection now. LOL! -- it's my eyeglasses from Firmoo.
A little backstory how I started wearing eyeglasses. Back when I was in Shiloh's age, I would always wear my Mom's eyeglasses for fun. Most of the female member of my family on my mother's side are wearing glasses. From my Grandma, my Mom, my Aunties, my sister, my niece, Meghan, then me. And now I can also see my cousins from my Dad's side wearing eyeglasses too. I just hope Shiloh and Saoirse wouldn't need to wear one when they gets a little bit older. My mom said I also loved to stay close to tv while watching and at a young age, I was already exposed to computers. Until such time, I had a hard time seeing our lectures in the blackboards in school and I have to stay at the back seat (kinda) since we are seated in alphabetical arrangement with our lastname. Mine was Segarra~ lol Until when I get to 5th grade, that was when I officially had to wear my eyeglasses.
At first I thought it was cool 😎. But I got tired of it. Until I started wearing contact lenses in college but that has a lot of pre, intra, and post care to keep in mind and I always end up going back to wearing glasses. I also thought about having the Lasix Surgery but here in the US, it is not covered by my insurance and it is not really advisable by the Optometrist.
Good thing I came across this firmoo pop-up ads in my Instagram and Facebook. For sure I was skeptical about it at first. I thought it was a scam, a monthly subscription thing etc. etc.. But I was wrong till I got my 1st, 2nd and 3rd pair. I even got one for $1 in exchange for an honest review. I will put in the link below how you can participate in their review program. And the coolest part, they ship outside US. I chatted with one of their representative and confirmed, they ship out to the Philippines for $13 (US is only $5.99)
So far, these glasses met my expectations. You'll get a sturdy, stylish glasses without breaking your bank. The cheapest you can get is $19.99 with BOGO, 50% off and freeshipping discount code. Make sure you know your prescription by heart or if you have a copy, you can upload it to your firmoo account as you sign up with with them and its so easy to order, select pretty designs and lenses fit for you and will be at your door for almost 2weeks depends on the availability of the lense you selected.
So there you go. I made a collage of the glasses I ordered and my selfies wearing them :)
If you want to get the ones I already have, let me know which glasses it is in the comment box and I will send you the link for easy ordering.

1st Family Trip of the Year
Every year, as a family we make it a point to go on a travel atleast once or twice a year depending on my husband's free time at work and off course --- the budget! Lol. We chose March as it is my Hubby's birth month and our 5th wedding anniversary month. This time, we picked Huntington Beach for our destination and a quick stop in SanDiego to see my loved ones before they head to the Philippines for the holyweek.
It's our 2nd time to be in Huntington. The first time we went there was when I got to visit my grandma then she toured us at the Huntington Pier. We find the place so clean, not so crowded, nice parking space and despite of the cold water, the warm weather is so perfect to hangout. I guess im just really looking forward to warm weather since it has been chilly here in Newman for the longest time. lol!.. We stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel which is I believe 5miles away form the beach. Traffic is not so bad as going to the main city.
Before heading towards Huntington, we made a lunch stopover and a little shopping at the Citadel Outlet and left when it was ready for us to check-in.
Mar 14, 2019 my hubby's birthday and our 2nd day in Socal. We went to grab some lunch and spent the rest of the morning and afternoon at the beach. Kids had fuuuuuuun and at night time, we got to meet my youngest brother-in-law at the Orange Outlet who lives in the Orange County. We always go to that outlet whenever we are in SoCal and again did a little shopping and more of window shopping hahaha!!.. Kids went to sleep right away after shower after a long tiring and fun day at the beach :)
Mar 15, 2019- last day in Huntington and left the hotel at 9AM and headed to SanDiego Ca where my Mom's mom and sisters lived. First we had a lunch stopover at Jollibee in Plaza Blvd National City then dropped off the kids to my Aunt's house because its time for our couple's massage FINALLY!!! at the Happy Head Massage and Reflexology in Chula Vista. It was the best 1hour of my life HAHAHA!!!.. Then after the massage, we went back to pick up the kids and my Mom and Dad (actually my Aunt and Uncle) accompanied us to check in at the Viejas Casino and Resort for a 3days and 2nights stay. As you can see in my vlog, that's where my phone's memory went full! lol!... I'll do better next time haha..
Mar 16, 2019- we explored the Viejas Casino Outlet (yes, we love exploring outlet shop!) then met with my relatives again to dine at Fung Fung Yuen in Miramar until we head back to the hotel and get some rest and pack up for our trip back home the next day.
Mar 17, 2019- headed back home here in Newman. Hubby is complaining a sore in his legs and butt.. oohh!! poor daddy!!.. that's what you get when you don't allow me to long drive hehe..
So there you have it, our little get away and we're still looking forward for more. As a matter of fact, we already booked for April for Universal Studio with my friend and her daughter so I'll sure do share our trip again. Btw, I hope you enjoy this video and God bless everyone!
