Waking up early on a cloudy Tuesday

It's currently 9:23am as I'm writing this post while Frank Sinatra's The Way You Look Tonight is playing. I love his songs! There's a New York vibe in it and I always feel like I'm in Yellow Cab. Hahaha!

 I woke up early today (5am!). I am actually fixing my body clock already because we will be going back to school in less than a month and ya 'know, bye bye summer. I took a bath immediately after waking up since it was already so hot. The weather here in the Philippines is so hot! AAAAHHHHH. I, then studied! :) I'm trying to be productive today. Hahaha! Here are some things that I'm planning to do today; make queue posts, edit photos, arrange our closet, clean our room and eat.

I didn't eat my breakfast yet and my tummy's aching already. I can't wait to eat! Hohoho. I hope I can go travel with my family before school starts! And guys, I had been eating chocolates lately especially Ferrero Rocher. It tastes so good! My summer's pretty boring so... Anyways, have a great summer guys! xx N Ross

Pink flowers

Hi guys! I'm so happy that I'm blogging regularly now (I think!) Anyways how are you guys doing? Me, I'm fine. I'm just having colds right now and it's been days! :(( I hope this'll go away so that I can smell properly and also talk properly (clogged nose T_T) A few more days 'till school and I'm not yet satisfied with my summer :| The weather here in the Philippines everyday is sunny and the heat is killing me!!

The pink flower has ombre petals which is cool :) I do hope before the month of May ends, I can play tennis in an island. Huhuhu anyways, I've been watching Aryanna Epperson's youtube videos. I like her videos and she's so funny! Check out her channel here. I'm not excited to go to school but I'm so excited to buy school stuffs. Hahaha!

I've been watching Modern Family episodes on the computer and I don't get tired of watching it over and over again. I do watch it before I go to sleep so that I'll be ending my day with laughs. Checking our personal blogs right now since I don't have anything elso to do. So unproductive! *boo* 

Have a happy summer! 

Baked an Oreo Cake ♡

 A few days back, me, my sister, and my cousin had the chance to bake a cake with the lovely owner of Sweet Moments. The whole afternoon, we baked an Oreo cake. It was so fun! Even though me, my sis, and my cousin were effin' nervous that it might not taste good. Wahahaha

Tadaaaa! Our Oreo cake. It looks like a banana cake (lol) ☺ The black bits in the cake are chopped oreos. Nomnomnom ☺ craving for it. Waaaa afterwards, we ate the cake. Oreo cake + Cold drink + hot afternoon + fun people = PERFECT ☺

When it was time to go home, we brought home some slices for our parents to taste what we made. That's all! Happy summer :) xx, N Ross

Grapes for breakfast ☼

Hi guys! Kamusta? It's freaking hot here in the Philippines! Almost every morning, I feel so dizzy because of the heat and it makes me sweat. Ugh. Even at night which is weird. Anyways, these past few days, I've been trying to be productive.  

I've been doing Diys, reading books, studying, workingout, doing errands, and eating. Btw, guys! I have 2 new diys that I'll be posting soon! Yesterday, I had grapes for breakfast. ♡ I love it when I eat fresh fruits for breakfast.

I love grapes. ♡♡♡ Once again, I have 2 new diys for you guys! I'll be posting it soon! ☺Happy summer! ☼ xx, N Ross

INSTAGRAM: Workout, Party at the Strip, Coffee ♡

Hi guys! I was just enjoying my summer that I forgot to make a blogpost for you guys. Sorry. One big anyway, this post is going to be a post of my Instagram updates (follow me on Insta and Twitter: nrossfernandez)

1) Did a workout yesterday! It's been a week since I last did workout. Anyways, I was proud of myself that sweat came out of my body (see the blurred photo above). I got my earphones to have a song to jam on while workingout. T'was fun :) I promised myself to do it like 2-3 times a week.
2) Myself, posing at 4:10am. Hahaha lol myself. I wasn't tired that time(as you can see in my face) I kept on checking blogs, writing and reading a book. I usually sleep at 2, 3 or 4 am because it's summer. Ya know! 3) A hot cup of chocolate drink to start my day ♡ these past few days, I've been drinking chocolate drinks every morning and pairing it with donuts (original glazed donuts from Krispy Kreme yeah) Btw, the hot coffee from the photo is from Mcdo.

4) Party at the Strip! Midnight jamming while you eat your dinner or blah. There are chairs and tables owned by different restaurants placed outside so that you can watch and listen to the band. (check out post HERE to see how the chairs and tables are placed!)

5) My current nails! Tried on 'Mojito' and 'Salsa' (I'm not really sure about the 'Salsa' color) nail polish color from OMG (Oh My Golly). I've been looking for sea green or light blue colors for my nails and finally my cousin showed me the OMG nail polishes she got! I love the Mojito shade. Very much. It's just like sea green. The color is so cool, breezy, fresh, blah blah blah. 

6) A picture of the tennis court in where I played tennis! You guys probably know this if you follow me on Twitter or Instagram (nrossfernandez!) Last month (March obviously) my siblings were talking about famous tennis players (Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Serena Williams, and Maria Sharapova are my faves!♡) and learning tennis. So my dad booked a trip going to the island where we'll play tennis then a few days before the trip, we bought things for tennis. At first, I wasn't really that interested but then when I started to play it, I loved it and right now, I want to play! -.- 

Sometimes when we play in the tennis court in the island, there are 'PROs' watching so I become so shy and I sometimes forget the right execution of doing forehand and backhand because I was too conscious (of doing the 'bend your legs' thing). And some of the 'PROs' was older, one had the same age as me which was actually my classmate before and some where younger than me.

But when I finally did 'feed', I felt more comfortable of the position (at first, I really got awkward on the 'bend your legs' thing.) Feed is already like playing. Your coach is on the other side of the court or on the net throwing you tennis balls one at a time and you should hit all of them or you can watch this video. (Video owned by Thomas Hoffer Jr's Youtube channel). I get so happy when I get to empty 2 baskets on feed-ing! Gagmay nga kalipay. I also did rally! That was... proud moment to myself! HAHAHA.

7) This is the saddest thing as of right now... I can't watch Wanderland music festival! *CRIES* I have no many. Ugh. Why don't I have a summer job :(( I want to see all of these bands perform live, as in! Like, infront of me. Especially Temper Trap and Neon Trees </3

I was wondering on the 'your clothes might get wet or dirty in some other activities'. Hmmm... They might bring water guns. Aaaah! I really want to go but I can't. I don't have money. Waaaaa!

8) My concert bucketlist! Before we go to the Script, I'm really sad that I missed SNSD's visit here in the Philippines. They performed there new song, I Got A Boy and others. They performed 8 songs I think. Yet I'm still waiting for their solo concert *fingers crossed* And Maroon 5 had their concert too! I think it was last year (correct me if I'm wrong ^_^). Temper Trap and Neon Trees are coming on May 18 (Wanderland music fest) I'm surely going to miss it. Boo! Hoping Coldplay, Passion Pit, Ed Sheeran and Adele would come to the Philippines too! Even though I'm sure I won't be able to watch them when they come. Pero, they say 'libre lang mangarap!' 

And finally The Scipt. I actually watched them last April 2010. It was the first concert and the first international concert that I watched! The experience was super fun! The waiting outside Araneta Coliseum, the rush (especially when you get GenAd tickets), the crowd and especially seeing Danny O'donoghue perform infront of you. Until now, I still have a hangover. Exxxxag! Hahaha.

Never thought that this Instagram update would be just a short post this long! Hahaha. It's 12:58am and I don't feel sleepy. Enjoy your summer guys xx Happy summer xx

My Beach Trip Must-Haves!

It's already freakin' hot here in the Philippines! It screams for summer... Since all of you are going to the beach, chillin and sunbathing, here are my beach trip must-haves!

1) Sunscreen - this thing is used to protect your sking from the heat of the sun. This is not only for beach use but for everyday use! I recommend you to try a lotion with SPF 30. SPF means Sun Protection Factor.

2) Bikini - Ofcourse, the most important and the most common summer essential is the bikini. I like bright colored ones to bring out the fun, summer vibe. It can even brighten up your mood! If you want more fashion, you can mix and match the tops and the bottoms of your old bikinis. Go print on print!

3) Cover-up/Sheer - there are times that you feel like covering up what you wear (especially when you're a bikini) but still there is a little sneak peak on the bikini. Bring a cover-up or a sheer top or dress to cover-up what your wearing.

4) Flip Flops - since you're going to the beach, you need to wear a comfy footware. When you're just chilling by the beach, I recommend you to wear those plain slippers but with bright colors. When you plan on going snorkeling, island hoping and any adventures that is being offered in the beach, I recommend you to wear slippers that has straps with bright colors too! Havaianas has a variety of slippers and slippers with straps to choose from.

5) Music player - there are times that you want to just chill by the beach or just chill first before going swimming. So bring out you music player so you can jam while chilling under the heat of the sun. 

6) Camera - for capturing special and unforgettable moments. If you want to caputure underwater shots, you can buy a waterproof case for your camera/gadget.

7) Sunglasses - to protect your eyes from the bright mr. sun! 

I hope you find this helpful! Happy summer guys xx

Donuts

I really love it when my mom or dad bring home food, especially donuts. :)) Hahaha I love food. I think all of us do. So mom and dad bought donuts from Dunkin' Donuts and I ate alot. I love their sugar-raised donuts and their strawberry donuts. AAAHH. Craving for 'em right now...

Okay, looking at the picture above makes me crave even more. Strawberry donuts... Hoping I can ask my mom to buy donuts! Teeeheee. Happy summer to all of you guys! xx

A few days back after our recognittion, we ate in Army Navy. It was my first time in the place and I heard many good things about it.

I had their tacos. It was so delicious and I also had a bite of their burger. I forgot the name.
