THE THINGS I HAVE LEARNED IN LIFE - BY DIA FERRER

Hi, everyone! I feel so honoured to be here with you. And for today’s blog I will share something deep and really came from the bottom of my heart and that is-
“The Things I have learned in Life”, well, this topic is really broad and general. Honestly, I really find it difficult to start and to construct but thanks God I was able to think of a way to make it easier for me and I just hope that you’ll love how I’ll do it.  
Since, the topic is really broad what I thought is to share with you the BIG THING that I have learned in my life and that is HOW I HANDLE MY EMOTIONS. So is this part you will be able to know the EMOTIONAL ASPECT OF MY LIFE and of course my journey in getting to know myself too. I just hope it makes sense. ☺ But before I run into it, let me give you a little bit of background about myself.

First, My name is Dia A. Ferrer, I am 26 years old, a Filipina, and currently living in the Philippines but will migrate soon.
(I chose this picture, because for me it looks WELCOMING)
Second, I really love WRITING, which is a way for me to express whatever I have in mind and the like. That’s why I have my page where I am free to post whatever I want to share.
(This is my page, feel free to follow me, just click here)→https://diaferrer.wordpress.com
Third, for me sharing is caring, and if before my only way of expressing and sharing is through writing? But now, I also accepted the challenge of filming myself and talk in front of the camera and share whatever I want.

And yeah, I think, those information are enough for you to know me, ☺ So without further ado let’s hit it.
THE THINGS I’VE LEARNED IN LIFE
--the emotional ASPECT—
(I look so HAPPY right?)
  1. HAPPINESS- well, this is actually my favourite emotion and I am so thankful because God is really helping to be happy even though there are challenges and trials along the way. And for me, as a human being we should always look at the brighter side of everything no matter how difficult it may sound. We should know how to balance and to manipulate our thoughts and feelings because in this way we will be able to address things right. And let me tell you “HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE” if you will not help yourself to be happy you will end up losing yourself as well. So if I were you CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY EVERYDAY. I am telling you this because I am doing this and I may say, it’s helping me a lot.
(I just hope, I LOOK sad here)
  1. SADNESS- I think this is the feeling that we cannot really control or prevent from happening. As how we choose to be happy everyday there would always come a time where we will feel sad because of something or because of someone. But you know, for me it’s totally fine, why? Because in this way we are actually helping ourselves to withdraw or get rid of all the negative energy and feeling inside us and that is through reflecting or even through crying, yes it helps a lot. Just like a beautiful cloud in the sky, time will come when it needs to cry and release its heavy feeling. So don’t feel so awful and frustrated if you are feeling sad at the moment, because you also need that, the time for you to release everything. But don’t get me wrong, you should always have a way to feel better, and don’t let your sadness eat you and make you feel and look so miserable. If you are choosing to be happy every day, you should also choose to be better.


  1. ANGER- This emotion is something that comes in a snap and can ruin you at any moment. The way people feel angry is different from one another. There are lots of ways where someone will be triggered and eventually hit its boiling point. I don’t know, but for me it’s difficult to address and handle this emotion. Personally, I am really crabby and if there is someone who did something that irritates me, just imagine what comes next. I tend to say something bad and not what I meant to say. And it’s really difficult to control it and so I end up realizing my mistake and say sorry at the end. But please, I am just like this if something is not right and I think it’s still reasonable, I hope. Anger can also give us pain and scars, how? Well, it depends on how you handle and address it. But the way you control and release it can affect you a lot. I just hope that we are all careful and fair in our own ways of releasing and welcoming this emotion. I don’t want you to feel numb at the end. Just remember, there’s always a way for us to address something no matter how complicated it is.
(The picture shows LOVE)
  1. LOVE- I think this emotion helped me a lot, especially in terms of ‘how I handled myself at the highest and lowest point of my life’. If I will define love as a general I may say “LOVE IS POWERFUL”. In a way that it can MAKE YOU OR BREAK YOU. But let me share the highest point of love in my life. Well, we all know that God is the main source of love and He extended it first to our family. So our family is a way for us to feel love and be loved as well and so as to our friends and special someone. You know, I am so blessed to be able to know God in my life. He is always there and letting me experience His guidance and presence. I was able to carry on to this life because of His love. There were a lot of challenges where I thought I will not be able to make it, and back then I am feeling that the only way to surpass it was to escape and fell asleep forever. There are a lot of times when I feel so awful and devastated, but God is so good because He has sent me a lot of people to help me to continue this life and to be positive at all times. I am so loved by Him, and so with my family.

Now, the lowest point of my life is, when my father had a major operation on his head/brain. You know, I can still feel how scared I was during that time. Seeing my father in that kind of situation makes me feel so devastated. How I wish I can exchange seats with him. I thought I will not be able to make it. And I am so scared that my father might not be able to make it. But you know what? During that time? I stayed faithful to God, I never questioned His will, but instead, I lift everything to Him especially the life of my father back then. And I am so grateful because God is so good because He guided my father to surpass that challenge. No words can express how thankful I am. The love of God is really POWERFUL. On the other hand, love towards someone gave me a challenge as well but I manage to address it and carry it. Though I have realized that words can hurt you more and the pain it can cause you can destroy you and can give you scars. But you know, there are things in life that can also be ruined because of too much love. Love that can break you as a person. Don’t get me wrong, love will always find a way for us to feel happy and for us to appreciate it in the highest level. We just have to understand and accept it. Because in this way, we will be able to move on.
( I FEEL TO FREE FROM ALL THE NEGATIVE VIBES)
There are a lot of things I have learned in life and for me handling these emotions is the key for us to surpass everything. I may say I am a better version of myself now because of all the challenges and trials I’ve gone through. Sometimes we might feel lost and down but always remember that everything happens for a reason, we just have to wait until we found it out. So you have to be patient in life. ☺

HOW I LOSE 5kg IN 100 DAYS

HOW I LOSE 5kg IN 100 DAYS Hi guys! So last Feb my colleague and I started this biggest loser/gainer contest. At first I’m actually skeptical about it coz I don’t think I can lose any weight anymore and I really don’t like losing money (Hahaha). The bet in our contest is 30sgd or 1070php. (And I think that’s a lot!) But due to my colleagues convictions but I’d rather say bullying i joined. I’m actually very competitive person and I really did my best to win. And guess what? I won! Chaching  Back to our topic I can say that I didn’t starve myself to lose weight and I didn’t do any extreme exercises. So what did I eat and what did I do? Keep on reading... WHAT DID I EAT? Have you heard of the saying, ‘During breakfast eat like a king, lunch eat like a prince and dinner like a pauper’. Ganyan ang ginawa ko.  BREAKFAST I always eat heavy breakfast. 1/2 cup of rice and any ulam na may sabaw like tinola, nilaga, sinigang etc. And with fruits yan like pineapple,

ARCHERY 101

KODANDA ARCHERY RANGE  I really wanted to try archery and it is in my bucketlist or things to do before I die. So I bought it in ENSOGO. Nakapromo sya so yah from 580 to 377? Not bad. HAHAHA The Kodanda Archery Range in BF homes is so cozy. Napakalakas ng aircon so hindi ka talaga pagpapawisan. The thing about sa voucher dun sa ENSOGO is redeemable lang sya every weekend 11 - 2 pm. So yung pagpunta dun ang mainit. HAHAHA So I'll talk more about the experience. Yung bow is kinda heavy. My left arm still hurts now. Kailangan kasi tuwid paghold mo sa bow. And then yung pagstretch mo sa string kailangan malakas din in short dapat may force. You need to close your left eyes para makatarget. It is so fun! Lalo na nung nakabull's eye ako. Actually goal ko lang nyan is makatama ako sa yellow. Bwahaha more than what I expected! AMAZING!  What I'm wearing? Simpleng pangjogging lang. HAHAHA White shirt and leggings and my rubber shoes given to me by

BASIC FINANCE FOR MILLENIALS

START RIGHT! BUILD A STRONG FOUNDATION IN AN EARLY STAGE. (Disclaimer: The things I'm sharing now are from the books I've read and seminars I've attended. Just to clarify I am not an expert, I just want to share what I've learned. (NO HATE GUYS, JUST LOVE) FINANCE - management of a supply of money 1. TIME IS GOLD - SPEND IT WISELY.  This stage in your life is the best time to start EDUCATING YOURSELF. Learn from your past mistakes and also learn from the people around you. Think of this:  I know at this stage, andyan yung mga barkada na lagi nagaaya ng night out, labas dito, inom doon and kinabukasan pag may hangover mapapashit na lang tayo at sasabihing di na uulit. Hanggang sa maging cycle na,di na uulit pero ulit-ulit pa din and what will you gain in that cycle? Probably disease  and also utang kung puro gimik na lang lagi. Think of all the time you could have spend trying to improve yourself. Remember in life you are either growing or dying. SO ST

COVE HAIRLAB DEEP CLEANSE THERAPY (REVIEW)

Healthy long hair starts with a healthy scalp. As you may all know, I really love my long hair and I would love to keep it long until I grow old. However, with my long hair and almost monthly touch ups (coz my hair is bleached and coloured), my scalp isn’t as healthy as I would like it to be.   Being totally honest, I often neglect my scalp, so when Sample Store invited me to experience Cove Hairlab   Deep Cleanse Scalp Therapy, I was really excited! Cove Hairlab (by Cove Aesthetics) has doctor-designed hair and scalp treatments to combat hair loss, regain hair strength and defy grey hair. I am so thankful to Amber (Scalp Expert) for enlightening me with regards to my scalp and for sharing a lot of tips on how I can keep my scalp healthy. Cove Entrance Cove Hairlab has a very relaxing ambience. Doesn't really feel clinic-y at all and the staffs are all nice and friendly.  Medispa's ambience So lately I've been seeing a lot of white stuff on
