Daisy Cuff

Product Code:
Safety Chain 790385

This is my first safety chain. The detailing of the  flower is so pretty. Aside of getting this because its a MUST to have this to ensure that I do not have less chance of losing a bead when i unclasp my bracelet, I also thought this serves as a reminder of not letting go of who I am inspite the wonderful things that is happening to my life now. To stay humble & keep my feet grounded.

A toast to life!!!

Star World Clip

Okey, I just made that name up. This is what they refer to as the 'Pandora Star Clip'. I truly find this cute but this is not the reason why I have this clip. I view each of the star like the star of the night. For me, this symbolizes as a dream or a wish. Having this clip doesn't mean that I have all my wishes & dreams come true already, would have been cool if its really like that. Rather, that you do not stop letting go of them just because they look impossible. When I met my boyfriend, now husband, at the internet 5 years ago, I would tell myself that it is impossible for us to be together since we are living on the opposite side of the world. I am glad that I am wrong & truly, I am happy right now.

Cheers to you and your love ones!

Oxidized Sterling Silver Studded Clip

Among the clips available at the present, this one in particular has caught my attention. It was what I would describe as the rocker clip. The studded design give it a rough edge look, don't you think? But like all the charms I have, this one is no exception in having its own meaning in my world. This clip will remind me that I survive a 5 years Long Distance Relationship with my guy. The world is an odd place to live in & yet: small & beautiful. I agree with the sayings: "Don't measure the distance but measure the Love". 

Keep loving everyone!

Dragon Charm (2012)

Product Cide: 790878

I truly believe that the year 2012 is such an exciting year for me. I expect to have many turning points in my life & I wanted to celebrate it with this Dragon Charm. Under the Chinese Calendar & horoscope, this 2012 is the year of the Water Dragon. The Dragon is the only important animal out of the several animals of the Chinese horoscope.  A lot of believers expect a good year ahead. I, myself, included.

It was after 2 months that I brought this one that I learnt about a Chinese New Year Charm. It is much a serious looking charm compare to this that look cartoon-ish. The Chinese New Year charms are only available in Asia & was just recently released. A lot did try to get theirs but not all got lucky. Soon enough, it was out-of-stock in most Asian countries. But nevertheless, I never regret getting this charm.  I somehow felt there is a certain appeal to this that matches my young-of-heart personality. 

Have a good Dragon year ahead of you!!!

Four Leaf Clover

Product Code: 790157

The Four Leaf Clover is such a beautiful charm. I brought this charm a day before my visit to the German Embassy for my interview & application for a spousal visa (also known as the family visa).  For me, this symbolizes luck as well. My visit to the embassy was successful, & yes, very happy to have this charm to remind me of that day.

Cheers!

Pineapple Charm

Product code: 790363

Pineapple, when translated to Fookien (a native Chinese dialect often used by the Filipino-Chinese community in the Philippines which originated from the Fu jian province, China), is read as "ong lai". This simply means "wealth is coming". With this, pineapples become a popular traditional feng shui symbol of wealth, prosperity, and fortune.However, it was not for this exact reason why I brought this home with me.

side view

You see, the family business which my parents pioneered carries a logo of a pineapple. We still use the said logo up to now. This is reason #1.  Owning this would simply remind me of my family specifically my parents. I brought this charm during my trip to Singapore last Christmas 2011 (it was my first time to visit there too). This is my other reason.


I have one more reason: for the longest time my mom would give me a money gift. So, I can buy what I really want or need. So yeah, guess what I brought? hehe. Indeed, this charm is such a treat to me. Thanks mom!!!

Have a Happy week ahead of you!

Heart Charm

Product code: 790137

It's the Heart Month of the Year, & since Valentine's day is just around the corner, one can guess that a Heart charm will be seen here. Well, correct on the part of the Heart but not with the reason. I am the type of person who do not celebrate other occasions  than Birthday & Christmas. Though there is a big possibility that this might change & since I started to charmed in my stories, I have been seeking for moments to celebrate. haha!

So anyway, here is a simple heart charm (Pandora have several heart charms to choose from). This symbolizes the strong love between me & my husband. My husband & I have survived a 5 years Long Distance Relationship. We met through an online game (we were in the same guild) & just recently married in the mid November of 2011. I am currently on the process of getting my visa so we no longer need to be apart anymore. Long Distance Relationship is not really for everyone. It is very difficult but is worth it when it works. Sending a salute to the other couples out there who have survived LDR themselves!

Have a Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Cheers!!!!
