Hawk Trolley Bag (6 wheel trolley) Review

uh, well, he said he really needs a bigger bag and seeing how he struggles putting all his books and other stuff inside his old bag, I just have to say yes. Mico got his new rubber shoes anyway(shopped at Zalora, different blog post) so, it is just fair to buy a new bag for Kuya.

I am quite impressed with Hawk 6 wheel trolley bag.. I must commend the sales representative at SM, they really know their products well and explained every details I need to know.. and convinced me that Hawk trolley 6 wheel bag is what my son needs. But no, we didn’t bought his bag from SM, Robinsons Galleria is friendlier for us, less people, smaller shopping area (with 4 kids, trust me, you wouldn’t survive an hour or two at Megamall LOL?

The 6 wheel trolley bag is different from your usual bag, well, because it has 6 wheels (oh there you go captain obvious haha).. so what advantage does 6 wheel trolley bag has over the more popular 2 wheeled trolley bag? This:

The trolley bag with 6 wheels can be pushed or pulled sideways too, making the bag easier to maneuver compared to a 2 wheeled trolley bag. This Hawk 6 wheel trolley bag is worth PhP3,799, not bad, considering Hawk is a trusted name when it comes to bag.

The bag is big enough to accommodate 20 books. It’s spacious and my son said it is easier to arrange his school stuff.

Aside from the size, the bag includes a cover bag, specially useful during rainy days:

The bag comes with 2 detachable side pockets (perfect for snacks and water bottle), it also comes with a free bottle water.

Given the price tag, I’m expecting that this bag will last until he graduates from Elementary.

P.S.

In a thank you letter he wrote (school activity) he mentioned the bag not just once.. it only shows how much he appreciates the bag.. good decision on buying this one.

New Routine, Exciting Days Ahead!

Ang title sana ng post na ito ay Back to regular programming.. but after a few days, I realized, the title is not apt for what is happening to us, particularly to me and to my routine.

This school year is different from last year.. I have three school boys this school year but I am less haggard.. it feels like, everything’s in proper places.. parang swak na swak lahat.. My routine is quite hectic, umm more hectic than it was last year, but I am surviving it and loving it. I’d wake up at 5 (but working on 4 so I can blog at least an hour), prepare breakfast (hopefully I can squeeze in my Metafit routine.. it’s a work in progress too haha)take bath (make up time!) wake the kids up, give them a bath.. let them eat their breakfast while I enjoy my “me” time aka coffee time.. after breakfast brush teeth then off to school. After dropping them to their respective classrooms, I’ll go home, work then cook lunch. Wake Sati up then off to fetch Sanko and bring the older boys lunch meal.

We usually go to school an hour before Sangko’s dismissal (mahirap na, baka mapaaga ang uwi, magwawala un pag hindi kame nakita) and to make use of the time, I teach Sati while waiting for Sanko (sorta homeschooling but happens on the school hehe)

Before lunch, a few minutes is spent checking on Sangko’s school books and doing his homework. Lunch time is about me, Sati, Sangko with Sir Chief and Maya.. after lunch, nap time..after nap time, tutor time with the older boys.. then work, the cook dinner.. then sleep.. parang robot lang no? but really, I love it! Mahilig talaga ako sa routine and it’s hard pag mejo nalilihis ako sa routine ko.. so far, so good.. sana ma maintain namin haha

Speaking of “me” time and make up time.. last year talaga, I make it a point na I’m in full battle gear before the sun says hi.. pero pagdating ng summer, tinamad na ako mag make up.. I said to myself, this school year, I should be back to full battle gear.. and one afternoon a surprise and a very nice motivation was delivered at my doorsteps:

Ang bongga di ba! British Invasion!

Collection Cosmetics, one of the hippest and most loved make up brands in the UK, is now here in the Philippines! Get ready to create a make up look that will make you say, “This is me and I love it”.

The box I got includes blush, mascara, lipstick (and lip gloss), eye liner, foundation and a BB cream.. I’d be super biased ha.. pero to date, this is the most exciting loot I received from being a blogger! Yay, thanks so much Collection Cosmetics, ready na ulit sa full battle gear days! (watch out for the reviews on my cosmetics blog: My Painted Lips)

Remember my post about Bonakid Choco Boost Amazing Toy Adventure Promo?

A 60 seconds toy shopping spree! At may nanalo ng mudra! Here’s the press release from Bonakid:

Seven-year-old Kyle Yniguez is the first winner of the Bonakid Choco Boost Amazing Toy Adventure Promo. His father found the winning sticker from the Bonakid Choco Boost box he bought as soon as the promo started. Kyle, who has never won any promo similar to this, was both surprised and thrilled when his father told him that he will have the chance to choose all the toys he wants in 60 seconds

“Today is really a day of firsts for Bonakid Choco Boost. This is the first time that we are holding a toy shopping spree and we are awarding our very first winner.

Kyle had fun choosing the toys and he also enjoyed the whole shopping experience. Since he is an only child, Kyle is excited to share his brand new toys with his cousins.

“Nag-focus po talaga ako at tumakbo ng mabilis para makuha ko yung mga toys na gusto ko. Super masaya po ako sa mga nakuha ko.
