Twenty Thousand Thank Yous

Early Friday morning, Maybe She's That Girl reached 20,002 views. That translates to 120 views per entry and ~ 51 hits a day. I got supportive friends.

I can't bilibit!

I am ecstatic and grateful! I never imagined that people actually waste their time reading the entries and taking a step more by sharing their comments with me. To everyone who drop by this blog, can I say thank you twenty thousand times? I would love to share the four-cheese pizza and cupcake I had Friday evening to celebrate this special milestone. I forgot the champagne, let's have a bottle once we reach 6-digit views.


Thank you to my ever supportive facebook friends, I see you every time I count the number of views from the Philippines; to Mama for being my number one fan and Person A for being my number one cheerleader. Back in the early days of this blog when I was too lazy to write, I remember you telling me not to let my 4 regular readers down... yes, I should write for my four readers. I apologize for sharing you with the world, I promise to keep my end of the bargain not to share too personal information about you ... or us for that matter.

Speaking of country views, we've gone pretty much around the world but I would like to highlight the readers from Russia, you're pretty consistent along with friends from Singapore, US, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, and the UK.

It also surprises me that someone DOES GOOGLE MY NAME from time to time. Hindi po ako 'yan at hindi rin daw po yan si Person A. Stalker-ish as this act may be, you flatter me. Thanks.


Another thing that surprised me, a few individuals google the blog -(",)-*wink* Again, thank you for the gesture.

Honestly, I am so grateful for everyone's support. I still see a long journey of stories and adventures to share with everyone. Let's raise our glass to that.

Dear Makati Shangri-La

Can I say I heart you?

Just because you're parking area has this 


Every gentlemanly act counts. It's the first time I've seen an establishment with parking spaces specifically alloted for women.

You might want to ask me, "What about gender equality?" I am not big on it. I believe that each gender has a specific role: biologically and yes, in our society. Secondly, save for a few bad apples, I am surrounded by men who treat women right. My third point, in my 26 years of existence, I have not been denied of any opportunity just because I am a she. Hence, I highly appreciate that the hotel allots the spaces nearest to the hotel's entrance for women. I hate walking long distances especially in dingy basement parking area. Security concerns.

The previous paragraph does not mean that I condone maltreatment of women (or anyone for that matter) just because she gave birth to a girl when her husband hoped for a boy and she has to marry the man who raped her

Before I digress, thank you Makati Shang.

Super Swank

The reason why I stay 'til midnight on Saturday nights; not to party and definitely not to work, but to take a peek on how the super rich live.

I watch TV!



Discovery Travel and Living Channel's Super Swank is usually based on Forbes Lists.

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN MONEY IS NO OBJECT? WHY, BE SUPER SWANK, OF COURSE!
Welcome to the world of over-the-top luxury. Where money is no barrier and every whim is indulged. From mind-blowing luxurious spa resorts and hotels to opulent homes and vehicles, live the high life and experience in Discovery Travel & Living's new series SUPER SWANK. Over eight episodes, you'll take a ride in high-end recreational vehicles, step aboard multi-million dollar yachts, live in five-star hotels, holiday on the most exclusive beaches and eat the best food money can buy. 
My favorite is when they feature houses and vacation destinations. Tonight it's about food: a gourmet pizza of buttery crust and caviar toppings at USD750. And there's this USD 5000 burger made from Kobe patty and foie gras.

Uh huh!

Hindi ko afford.
