| Looking back at 2017 |
It has certainly been an exciting and unforgettable year for me. It was filled with lots of emotions, memories, and motivational support from my family, friends, and followers/readers.
According to Feng Shui master Marites Allen, 2018's lucky number is 9. So to start things right, I'm going to share with you my top 9 highlights of 2017. These are listed in no particular order 😉
Highlight #1: Becoming a digital brand ambassador of #SafeguardFamily and Downy Philippines.

| Regional brand communications for P&G Asia fabric care Louie Morante |
My heart goes out to Procter & Gamble Philippines and Green Bulb PR for giving me the honor to represent Safeguard and Downy Philippines as their brand ambassador. These are the brands that go way back and has been with the family for as long as I can remember.
Highlight #2: Skydiving in Guam
This year, I was able to just go out there and do things I've never done before. Without thinking about it too much, I jumped out of a plane and had the best time. It's ironic how death-defying activities can make you feel so alive.
Highlight#4: #BloggerBabesXmasMeet
Highlight#5: Meeting my celebrity crushes in person
Mario Maurer
I’m so head over heels with @mario_mm38 ! I met him at the #HeadAndShouldersSupreme event and up until now, I’m still high of happiness. 🤗😍💙 Thank you so much #HeadAndShoulders @greenbulbpr for inviting me. 💋#1010 #HairSoLuscious#MarioMaurer.
Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes
This is probably my most unforgettable breakfast and #BestMondayEver! I met Marian Rivera and her husband, Dingdong Dantes at the McDonald's 5th National Breakfast Day and it was truly amazing.
Liza Soberano
This was the second time I met her and I'm still starstruck. She definitely deserves the title of having the most beautiful face in the world. Congratulations Hope for all your awards and for putting up your own business, @hopewellnessofficial

Highlight#6: Being a part of National Book Store and Olay Philippines campaign
Highlight#7: Nasal Polyp Surgery
Words are certainly not enough to express my gratitude to Sir Chief and my Mom for convincing me to finally do this surgery and for shouldering my medical expenses. I had a successful surgery last January 26, 2017. It's been almost a year since the surgery and, well, I'm feeling good. First off, I can breathe. Seriously, if you have nasal polyps for any length of time, you will feel great to discover you can breathe through your nose again.
Highlight#8: Family Reunion

| My family was on vacation in the Philippines from the States |
Highlight#9: Travel in Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Busan Korea, and beautiful places in the Philippines.

I've been obsessed this year in anything Korean to the point where I went to Korea just to get Mr. Buckwheat!
