Confetti and Cupcakes : HB Turns 1!

        I can't believe it's been a year since I re-launched this blog. I never thought that I would have readers that would genuinely care about the content of the site but I do now (yay!) and for that, I am thankful. HB has grown from personal to lifestyle to fashion to coffee to "whatever-I-think-about-writing-about" blog. I never planned it this way but I can't say I'm unhappy about it. It has become a window to my thoughts and a way for me to connect with people through the content that I publish. Even though sometimes, I'm late, you guys visit me here anyway. :) To celebrate the festivities, I asked help from my workmates (down below!) to help me take photographs for this post. (As always, thank you guys!)

         As some of you might know, this is not my first blog. I was once a fashion blogger a few years back. I was just trying out blogging at that time in hopes of finding ways to amuse myself. I also wanted to share with my friends where I got certain pieces of clothing so I thought, what better way to share than through a blog? I loved it so much that I immersed in the blogosphere almost every night. I would comment on blogs from all around the world, drooled at outfits from LookBook NU, scrolled through majorfashion.tumblr.com (a must-visit site for my sister and I way back 2011) and watched how Blair Waldorf, Serena van der Woodsen and Jenny Humphrey styled their outfits because I believed back then that black ribbon headbands and sequined shirts were the bomb.com. I can't believe how much I've grown, style and personality wise. I was such a huge fan of accessories back then but now, I wouldn't be caught dead wearing a chunky, chain necklace (which was a staple wardrobe item for me back then lol). It's just not my thing anymore.

     As we're celebrating (yes, you're part of the party too!) let's take a short trip down memory lane, shall we? Here are some of my favorite moments from past blogs. And to add a little bit of fun, I'll be sharing below some of the fashion faux pas of the past! Hahaha have fun and happy anniversary to us, dear readers. I truly am thankful for all of you. Kisses :*




                There you have it, ladies and gents! I know how cringey the last set of photos are but it's just so fun to look back and laugh at yourself sometimes hahahaha. Kidding aside, I really am thankful for you, dear readers. For always clicking the link whenever I share my new post, for always reading the content that I share and most of all, for sticking around. Thank you for the collaborations, the inspiration and the love. See you next week and hopefully, next year you'll still be here too. :* Love lots, Benj.

Feel Good List : 10 Things You Can Do For You #SelfLoveSeries

Hello and welcome back! Coming at you straight away with 10 little things you can do to give in little kicks of self-care and self-love. Some are quite personal but you can try them out and share with me your thoughts about it. This might not be for everyone but I'm still excited for the ones who can relate. Let's get started! 1 . Watch a movie alone. Like, literally alone. No social media posts, no telling a bunch of people that you're going to watch a movie alone, now whatever. It makes the experience private and special. 2.  Listen to Ted Talks. You're learning + getting inspiration. It's a win-win situation. 3 . Listen to a podcast that talks about things you genuinely care about. Currently, I'm listening to The Minimalists podcast by Ryan Nicodemus and Joshua Fields Millburn. 4 . When you're travelling home from work and have the chance to see the sky as you walk to your bus stop or any terminal or anytime you have the chance to lo...

Tatak C3: Blogging Workshop for Aspiring Bloggers by Cebu Content Creators

There is more to this day than just this workshop and I promise I'll tell you all about it but for now, I give you a glimpse of what it's like to attend a workshop organized by Cebu Content Creators on a Saturday afternoon.  The workshop, by the way, is called Blogging for First-Timers   and it was hash tagged as #BFFWorkshop . It was held at Handuraw, Mango last July 29, 2017 . When I found out about the workshop, truth be told, I was hesitant to register. I had a bad experience with a blogging workshop last June. It was a total scam. I won't say any detail about the last workshop I attended because I don't want them to have any kind of traffic/views/searches. Good thing I didn't let my fear of being scammed again stop me and registered for this one though. I wouldn't have known all the things that they shared and taught us. 06.2017. #TatakC3 A post shared by Cebu Content Creators (@cebucontentcreators) on May 30, 2017 at 9:20pm PDT ...
