My top guilty pleasures...

Was thinking of what to post to kick start my blog...
lifestyle guilty pleasures! it's about anything or everything that we consider pleasurable but embarrassed to admit sometimes.


May it be habits, indulgences..the soap opera we just couldn't live without. It makes the day right from the gratification we get.


But who are we to deny ourselves? let loose, as guilty pleasures brings colour to life.


  • Karaoke - If you are Asian this is such a common past time, most household has one. I could karaoke all i want in the comforts of my home after a day's work... must admit I'm not a pro, a bit average I must say :) I sing songs from the '80's up to the present billboard hits. I used to shy away from singing in public but proven from my latest vacation that I have the guts when i sang at a karaoke area by the beach. It was a karaoke machine where you drop Php5.00 per song... spent loads,but was so fun! It is such a stress reliever.
  • Reality TV Shows - I'm such a fan of America's Next Top Model, Survivor series, Big Brother Phillippine Edition and  The Real Housewives of Orange County to name a few. I love to watch people's raw emotions when they get to a situation. I record it as to not miss an episode or check the net for uploads.
  • Public Massage machine - May it be at the groceries or at the airport lobby. If I'm beat up or dead tired, this is my quick massage fix and it's cheap! No small talk, it's instant...just drop a coin and you just have to sit and relax! I don't mind people walking by or even stare, but i try to keep a straight face as much as i can.
  • Read and eat - I love books and I love food and I do it together! I stay in  my favorite corner of the room or the sanctuary of my bedroom and catch up on my reading munching biscuits with coffee or juice and junk food. Reading is like watching a movie for me. 
  • Eating out - I so love food and it is more pleasurable to be in an inviting environment full of hungry, happy people. I love buffets because I have an excuse to eat again and again without the guilt.. well It's my money's worth right? I love eating alone as much as I love dining with friends and loved ones. I'm on the slim side and most  people I know are surprise on where I get my appetite from and why I don't gain as much... well that I cannot explain, maybe it's in the genes.
  • Neat freak - I'm so organized to the point that I'm obsessed by it. I'm satisfied if everything is at its place. I don't go to bed unless the house is in order. 
  • Collecting - I collect just about anything; books,shoes, bags, watches, souvenirs, tickets from previous travels, concert tickets,etc. I don't intend to be a hoarder but i just can't get enough of pretty girlie stuff and memorabilia.
  • Travelling - I live for adventure. I try to explore places and get familiar with other people's food, culture and lifestyle. This is also my opportunity to take photos as it is one of my hobbies. 
I will post a detailed list of my favorite things later and where I've been... this is my pleasures for now.. what's yours?
