Before the year 2014 finally bid its farewell, I would like to thank all the people who supported me throughout the year. The people who believed in me that I can do this. My very supportive parents who never fail to congratulate me every time I receive a sponsorship. The person behind all my photos, none other than, my boyfriend. I am really blessed to have them. To all my sponsors who gave me their trust and made me feel special, thank you. And, last but definitely not the least, my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ for pouring me all the blessings I received for this year. Indeed, God is really so Good for making my 2014 a wonderful one. I am now ready for 2015 and I can sense a good one.
Sending my love and thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Happy New year and may you have a blessed year ahead.

Hello my dear readers!
How's your 2014 so far? Well, for me, nothing really special, just the fact that I am having my final exam before I get my Diploma. 1 down, 1 more paper to go.
So anyhoos, for this post, it's just a little rant about me, myself and I. I think you already knew what this post is all about.
*drum rollllll* 10 Facts About Me!
I haven't done any introduction or anything regarding myself over the past years. I don't remember any post I made about it. So, this post will tell you more about me. It's like a mini get to know me. Better late than never.
Without further ado, here we go:
1. My full name is Anico Hanna Mijares Gumayan. Here's a story behind my name.
My parents thought of naming me "Princess ____" ehk, I forgot the second name. But ya, that was the name they wanted to name me. Then, my mom's or my dad's officamate suggested a name and that was my name "Anico Hanna". My parents thought that it was kind of unique, so they decided to name me that. Honestly speaking, good thing that my mom's or dad's officemate suggested that name. I prefer that over "Princess ___". Well maybe because the name "Princess" is common? I don't know haha! But, everytime I introduce myself, people would ask me if I am Japanese because of my name, sounds like a japanese name.
2. I was born on January 25 in Mangino Gapan Nueva Ecija, Philippines. Mark your calendar!
3. I am a proud FILIPINO! Yes!
4. I am a firm believer. Papa God is my Lord and Saviour.
5. When I was a kid, I used to play with the guys like, "Patintero, Tumbang Preso, etc." Which made me think that I was sort of a "tomboy". HAHA! But I played with the girls, too. I missed playing street games.. A looot!
6. I used to be active in school when I was in Grade school. I was a member of our School Choir, Drum 'n Lire, Folk Dance, cheer leader, and many more. Ya, I was that active. Haha. Opposite when I reached High School. I was so slack HAHAHA. Refused to join.
7. I came here in Singapore last 2006, after I graduated in Grade/Primary 6. Sucks that I didn't had the chance to experience High School in Philippines.
8. I became a real girl when I turned 18. HAHA! I finally realised that I was a girl after all. Don't judge! That was when I started putting makeup, dressing up and so on. I remembered last time when my friend Rhys introduced me to make up, I was like "eww, I am never going to use that." And hey, I ate up everything I said, just by looking at how many makeups I own now.
9. P.A.R.I.S ... Yes, place I have been dying to go to. I know one day, by faith. I don't know why, but I am seriously dying to go there. Of course with my love. "Lovers in Paris" haha!
10. I started this blog for my beauty stuff. For reviews, hauls, giveaways and anything makeup related. Later, I realised that makeup/beauty is not really my area. Then I started posting outfit posts using my own clothes and money. Ya everyone starts there. So, I keep posting and posting. One day, an online shop emailed me saying they are willing to sponsor me. All I have to do is to post an outfit post wearing the clothes they will send me. Without any hesitation I grabbed the opportunity. After that, number of sponsors are coming. I was really overwhelmed with the number of sponsors. With that, I want to thank all my sponsors for sponsoring me for the whole year of 2013:
- ROMWE
- Chicnova
- Udobuy
- MartofChina
- LovelyShoes
- Aupie
- EfoxCity
- Persunmall
- DaisyLlma
* I hope I listed all the shops*
Lastly, for being one of Zalora.sg Brand Ambassadors.
Those are the basic ones. Teehee!
Love,
Anico Hanna

October is my parents' birthday month and November 24th is their wedding anniversary. This year is very special for them as they will celebrate their Silver Wedding Anniversary. So my dad surprised my mom with a Trip to Korea. Of course, I did not let them go on their own. Being the only child I get to go on their "Sweet Escape" (haha).
October 31st, the day of our departure. It was a 7 hr journey to Korea, because we passed by Philippines, Hong Kong and China. The longest hour I've travelled so far. So we arrived in Incheon International Airport earlier than expected. Their airport's air-cons were not on. I was expecting a cold weather upon arrival, but the moment I stepped out of the airport, it was freaking cold. I am not exaggerating the weather but it was seriously cold. It was 3 degree celsius. I must admit, I was praying for a single digit when we arrived, coz I was thinking that 10 degree celsius is not that cold. I thought it would be the same as Genting Highlands. But Papa God answered my prayer. It was nearly 0 degree when we arrived. I wasn't expecting it to be that cold. I underestimated the weather. I only brought one jacket along. I should have listened to my parents. They brought a winter jacket with them and I didn't. Anyhoo, the whole trip I was wearing 3 layers of clothes.
*I did not capture most of our trip, because the weather was freaking cold and I didn't want to expose my camera that much. It was foggy.*
Season: Autumn/Fall - Winter
Weather Temp: 3 - 15 Degree Celsius
Day 1: Hong Dae and some other places, I forgot the names.
Day 2: Nami Island and Mt Seorak
Day 3: Myeong Dong, Palace, Folk Museum, Insadong,
Day 4: Everland, Seoul tower
Day 5: Yodoi Full Gospel Church (Biggest Church in the World)
We went to the places where the famous "Koreanovela" (Korean TV series) like Winter Sonata and Jewel in the Palace shot their scenes. The places were really lovely. I fell in love with the leaves. Maple tree is indeed very beautiful. Be it in green, yellow or red.
Places in Korea is not the highlight of my trip. Everyone knows I am addicted in skin care products lately. This is the best time and best place for me to shop. Why? The price is 50% (or more) cheaper than here in Singapore. My skincare is from Etude House, 1 toner is SGD24, but to my surprise, it is only KRW11,000 (SGD12) in Seoul. See the difference? So I took advantage and shop like crazy. Good thing I was able to control my spending.
I didn't like Korea before. In fact, I hated it just because of ONE STUPID reason. Really.. But after my trip, I told myself, that reason is not acceptable to hate this place and never will be. Spare that. I will definitely come back. I love this place.
