As promised to blog all the places I've visited during my first week in California. I'm still in hiatus so don't expect long posts, lol. Old Sacramento Located in Sacramento, California; mostly referred as Old Sacramento has a lot of things to see. From its historical landmark, it also has private and public museums, a shopping destination and enjoy delightful treats.

Had a nice walking around there checking out the old buildings and having fun buying souvenirs like candies and shirts (score cool bargains and inexpensive items!). Don't forget to take a lot of photos and walk around towards Downtown for another shopping spree adventure :) California State Capitol Home of the government of California, the building was completed according to its website

I have found this on my Timeline and here are things we should let go of... 1. Let go of comparing. 2. Let go of competing. 3. Let go of judgments. 4. Let go of anger. 5. Let go of regrets. 6. Let go of worrying. 7. Let go of blame. 8. Let go of guilt. 9. Let go of fear. 10.

THE PHILIPPINES, AUGUST 2013 – Fashion trends come and go, but only one thing remains constant: denim. Since it was invented in 1853, the sturdy fabric has been molded into different fits and styles – bellbottom, boot cut, bleached, washed, colored.

True to its long and rich history, the denim jean is designed to last forever. In celebration of this classic material, Giordano Philippines launches “Denim Now. Denim Forever”. Can be worn by anybody in any season for almost any occasion, the raw and colored denim offered in the collection is available in different fits and styles. “Denim Now.

I was able to meet my relatives in California (thanks to you my dear family!) and had attended a town reunion in Las Vegas. Plus, I've met my college friend in Las Vegas and we talked everything under the sun. My last stop was in Chicago and meet my family :) Before anything else, I would like to thank personally some of my co-workers effort in helping me out to sort out things and helped my brother to move out things from my apartment. I only brought small things with me because of the baggage limit and gave away some of my treasures, lol. In less than a month, I was able to visit: Sacramento Capitol Old Sacramento Las Vegas Universal Studios in Los Angeles San Francisco's Golden Gate Will's aka Sear's Tower Navy Pier Millenium Park Buckingham Fountain and many to mention I will try my very
