Information overload on a 2-day Summit! The most interesting topic for me are as follows:

Talent Management to Sustain Growth. Yes! In order to be successful on my new Job Description as a Supervisor, I, myself should know the proper talent management that could help me sustain growth, not just for me but also with my peers. As the new challenging task assigned to me, I need to learn the basic how tos, dos and don’ts to be coherent on my position.

A Must: Coaching Program Generating Employee Engagement Thru Exemplary Leadership. Well, it is self-explanatory. I believe that a person behaves through their leaders’ action. By providing a good source of knowledge, as well as passion towards work, I bet your peers, team, people will do the same. It is just setting an example. Implementing rules that a leader should obey first – a saying “Practice what you preach” – is, I think, exact to be inserted here.

A Must: Wellness Programs for Life Balance. I've been in a situation wherein I look at my job as a toxic one. I became unhappy on what I’m doing thus; the result of it was delivering my projects compromising its quality which also affects my performance, as well as, bonus, since it is calculated based on my semi-annually and annual performance. Life balance is the important key on man’s success that’s why I really need to study or at least learn the proper way of having a life balance for me to able to teach them (my team) ‘coz what is good for me may not be advisable to others.

Oh boy! Such a lengthy post hopes that I don’t bore you to death. I’m always talkative when it comes on learning and for the opportunity of acquiring knowledge like this. And before I end my post, please watch the video below.

Happy Monday! Always have the positive vibes!

InterCon Hotel: Our Deluxe/Standard Room

Hey yeah! If you’ve been following me on instagram (aylin_tdp) you would know that my friends and I had a great time on our hotel staycation at InterContinental Hotel Manila, 1 Ayala Avenue, Makati City last week (July 19-21). A supposedly 1 night stay was extended to 2 nights and 3 days! (And now were broke but happy)

Meanwhile, let me show you how the Standard/Deluxe room looks like. Well, for the local (Philippine Resident) like us, the room we got was called as standard room but if you look on their site, the room was called Deluxe. Hmmm. In line with this, there’s also a price difference. For us locals, you better call first the hotel as they might offer lower prices than the publish rates on their website and even on Agoda. Good thing, I called them first that purchasing on my trusted Agoda site that also offers discounted price. From the published rates of P6,500 for a Deluxe Room that is good for 2 with buffet breakfast, we got our Standard/Deluxe Room for only P4200 (yes, that’s a promo rate) for 2 with buffet breakfast, too!

our room, Yani feeling at home and enjoying the comfy bed

Room 312, that’s our room number which we found a good location, had a very nice view of hotel’s swimming pool and located near the elevator. The room has a size of 28 square meters and has 2 double size bed which is perfect for 2 adults and 2 kids (as the hotel preference) but four adults is also fits in this kind of room but looks a bit crowd-y, maximum of 3 adults is allowed though.

view from our room's window

InterContinel Hotel Room was clean and home-y and accessible on everything – malls, restaurants, bars, public transportations such as MRT, Jeepneys, Bus and Vans, coffee chains and a lot more – thus it was a perfect hotel for staycation.

complimentary fruits - apple and banna

It has a bar that contains chocolates, chips and drinks but of course a bit expensive. Two bathrobes were also found in the closet. For a gal who loves vanity, hair dryer, soap, soothing and aromatic with a hint of mint shampoo, conditioner and hand and body shower gel and lotion were also present in the bathroom. What I like the most is door-sized mirror at the back of the bathroom’s door; you can perfectly see your outfit.

And before I forgot, a complimentary Wi-Fi is also included on the rate, that’s why friends and families were updated on what’s going on on our staycation. Well, my online life was also updated and I kept sharing photos on my instagram. A flat screen (I think 50+ inches) with cable is also there to entertain its patronage.

That’s it for now! Stay tuned for another blog post about our InterContinental Hotel staycation. I still have a lot to share with regards on this plus more photos will be posted. (Next Hotel Staycation would probably still around Makati City – New World Hotel, maybe!)

Have a goodnight Darlings! The bed is calling me now. Wish me and P a good luck for our first fun run together tomorrow at National Milo Marathon, we’re running for 5k leg.

SM Supermalls celebrates the month of July with Jeans and SM City Manila dubbed it with the hashtag #SMManilaJeanology. The invasion of jeans is clearly being seen at all SM Supermalls. In line with this, SM City Manila conducted a talk on what to do with your old ugly looking jeans with #SMManilaJeansAmbassador Shai Lagarde, a stylist, youth speaker, producer, writer, to name a few also has a fashion blog that caters her passion for Fashion, serves as a style inspiration to many – Love Chic!

I’ve learned so much on this event especially on (Do-It-Yourself) DIY-ing my no-more-use jeans that most of us already throw it away to the bin or keep it on our closet for a long time. I admit I’m guilty of that especially when I already found myself not good on it; I look at my jeans as faded and out of trend or it is already lapsed its shelf life (Ha-ha, thinking of using it for years)! Oh well, I love jeans. It is part of my everyday life as I found comfort wearing it on my daily living deals. That’s why most of OOTD posted were having jeans on.

Meanwhile, this event was attended of Fashion Technology students of TUP and the stage decorated by beautiful DIY jeans at the background were from iAcademy talented students. To make this event more interactive, audience were also invited to participate on DIY challenge prepared by Shai. Creativity and having the wildest imagination should be your friends on doing this thing. Well, a bit resourceful is also part of it, like mixing of available resources found in our laundry area such as bleach, Clorox, dye or anything that would eliminate or add colour on our stuff depending on our preference.

By DIY, it will turn your no-life clothes from fad to fab! Your old faded jeans could be look more punk and stylish by adding some accents like putting beautiful pattern cloth at the back pocket or in the linings of front pocket or by ripping/cutting it more and spray some bleaching solution (1/4 bleach with ¾ water mixed in a container). You can also turn your pants into sexy shorts.

As a fashion icon, Shai also gives some tips on how to looks classy and stylish, adding accessories, incorporating blazers, wearing high heels or just by wearing simple whites with colourful nail polish could do wonders on every outfit.
