Lux Thinking Aloud My Word for 2025: Expand 6:31 AM My Word for 2025: Expand Who else isn’t big on resolutions? I know I’m not. Instead, since 2014, I’ve been choosing a word for the year. It’s like a theme that sets the tone for what’s to come. It’s a small tradition that helps me focus and grow intentionally. Have you picked yours yet? Here’s my word for 2025:ExpandTo expand means to broaden, to stretch beyond what you already know, and to grow into something greater. That’s exactly what I’m planning to do this year.It’s not about stepping out of my comfort zone. That phrase feels too forced. Instead, it’s about extending my reach, building on what I know and love, and growing from there. Does that make sense?On My ReadingIf you’ve followed my book reviews and recommendations, you know romance novels are my go-to. I can finish them in one sitting because they’re my favorite escape.But this year, I’m mixing it up. I’m adding non-fiction to my list—autobiographies and self-help books, specifically. I’ve already started with Forgiving What You Can’t Forget, and wow, it’s a journey.Reading non-fiction is slower for me, and that’s okay. Unlike romance, non-fiction isn’t meant to be devoured. It’s meant to be savored, absorbed in small bits, reflected on, and applied to life.Health & WellnessIn addition to my usual Pilates and yoga routine, I’m bringing back something I used to love: dancing. I don’t know why I stopped (thanks, adulting!), but it’s time to revisit that part of me.I'd love your recommendations if you know of any fun, beginner-friendly dance classes (nothing like Zumba or overly complex choreography). Let’s keep it simple and joyful!Career in Digital MarketingOver the years, I’ve learned that clients value results over certifications. That said, continuous learning is essential, especially in digital marketing, where everything evolves quickly.Pinterest MarketingLast year, I started my journey as a Pinterest marketer, and it’s already been rewarding. My clients are seeing real, profitable results, and I’m just getting started. This year, I’m doubling down on Pinterest.SEO Content MarketingI am also sharpening my SEO skills. After all, content writing is my first love, and SEO is the magic that brings it to life for online businesses. There's something satisfying about typing a keyword and seeing the article on top of the search results page. Happy for my client and myself!YouTube VideosThis isn’t a career move or a product I’m selling. It’s more of an experimental project for me. I recently created a YouTube channel, Sound Sleep Solutions, featuring white noise and relaxing background audio. It’s perfect for:Focusing during work or studyMeditating and finding calmImproving sleep qualityAdding a soothing background soundtrack to your dayWhat’s next? To align with my 2025 word, Expand, I’m taking this project further:Uploading content to YouTube Music (I just discovered it’s a separate platform!).Sharing my tracks on Spotify for broader reach.Adding more white noise options and creating new relaxing music tracks to cater to diverse preferences.If you’re looking for peaceful sounds to enhance your day, I’d love for you to check it out. Feedback and suggestions are always welcome! 😊Selling Digital ProductsI started selling digital products on Amazon last year.My Amazon, Tales N Doodles, sells children’s coloring books and journal notebooks with witty covers.I’m expanding my collection with adult coloring books and upgraded journals in 2025. Journaling has been a big part of my life lately, so why not create something others will love, too? I have other plans I'm excited about. Stay tuned for more!Expanding My CircleI wish I could say I’m joining clubs or doing volunteer work this year, but let’s be honest. That’s a no for me. As an introvert, homebody, and self-proclaimed anti-social human, I’m perfectly content with my circle as it is.However, I am expanding my online network by connecting with fellow book lovers on Bookstagram and Goodreads. If you’re there too, let’s link up!Travels and ExperiencesFingers crossed that 2025 brings more opportunities to explore new places and create unforgettable memories. While I can’t make solid plans yet due to personal and logistical reasons, I’m hopeful. Here’s to manifesting positive outcomes!Past Words for InspirationIf you’re thinking of choosing a word for your year, here are some of mine from the past for inspiration:2024: Elevate – Improving in what I do and who I am.2023: No – Saying no to the less important so I can say yes to what truly matters.2020: Premium – Choosing not to settle for less.2019: Milestone – A year of many firsts.2018: Spontaneous – Embracing spontaneity, even as a control freak.2017: Winning – Overcoming inner battles and emerging victorious.2016: Unorthodox – Doing things differently and stepping out of character when necessary.2015: Better – Striving to be better than the year before.2014: More – Saying yes to more experiences, opportunities, and growth.Word for 2025Have you chosen your word for 2025? I’d love to hear it! Whatever it is, I pray this will be a year of breakthroughs, answered prayers, and healing for us all.All images: AI-generated by Internet Marketing Ad

Experience 5-star accommodation, stunning sunset view, and delicious food at Mövenpick Resort & Spa Boracay. Here's my experience and honest review of this Green Globe-certified, family-friendly paradise.Why We Love Mövenpick Resort & Spa BoracayMy husband and I went on vacation in Boracay and stayed at the Movenpick Resort. Here's what we loved most about Mövenpick Boracay:Seamless transit5-star experienceStunning viewComfortable and cozy suiteDifferent dining choicesAmazing staffChocolate Hour!!!Private beachRelaxing massage1. Seamless transit from airport to resortMövenpick Boracay ensures a hassle-free airport transfer experience, making arrivals and departures smooth and stress-free.Key features of the transit service:Punctuality: The staff was on time for the airport pickup. We missed the transfer from the hotel to the airport because we stayed elsewhere at the end, which we regretted. We wish we had stayed the whole time at Movenpick.Efficient Coordination: We were warmly greeted and guided to the exclusive Mövenpick van upon arrival at the airport. The transition to the speedboat was seamless, with staff handling our luggage every step of the way. There was no waiting.Warm Welcome: At the resort, friendly staff greeted us with Mövenpick's signature iced tea and cold towels, setting the tone for a luxurious stay.Comfortable Journey:The van was clean and air-conditioned, offering ample space for our party of two couples during the pickup.The speedboat ride was quicker than when you took the public boat, which we usually do when going to Boracay.This well-orchestrated process made travel to and from the resort effortless, allowing us to focus on enjoying our vacation from the very start. We're glad we paid extra for Movenpick Boracay's airport transfer service; it was worth it. Free Shuttle ServiceMovenpick offers a convenient free shuttle service, making it easy and hassle-free to explore the island.Schedules are regular and well-managed, ensuring guests can comfortably visit nearby attractions or the D'Mall shopping area.If you want to explore other parts of the island or go outside the scheduled activities, please inform the concierge, and they will arrange for an e-trike driver to pick you up from the main road. Expect a fare of 200-300 pesos, although some drivers may request a higher amount. It's best to negotiate the price.Here's their shuttle schedule (as of December 2024):There is also a free shuttle around the resort, which makes it easier to move between buildings.2. 5-Star Service & ExperienceOur arrival wasn't without hiccups, as the first room we were assigned had an issue. However, the management resolved the issue swiftly by upgrading us to a Junior Master Suite. The room's spectacular view and luxurious amenities more than made up for the initial mishap.3. Movenpick's beachfront location offers a stunning viewI love that, whether you're grabbing breakfast at The Market, having dinner at Brezza, or partying at Sol Marina Beach Club, you can always enjoy a great view of the expansive pool and beach. Our suite's balcony offers a stunning view of both.Enjoying this romantic view with my husband4. Comfortable and cozy Junior Master SuiteThe suite was a harmonious blend of modern elegance and cozy charm. Here's what stood out for me:Design: The room featured warm wooden flooring, soft ambient lighting, and a plush panel-style headboard that exuded understated luxury.Bathroom: A frosted-glass partition added a contemporary flair while maintaining an open, airy feel. The dual vanity and massive bathtub were perfect for couples.Balcony: Sheer curtains provided privacy without obstructing the view of lush greenery and sky. Blackout curtains were a lifesaver for those who needed to sleep in.Amenities: Every detail was thoughtfully curated, from the sustainable comb and brush to a variety of teas and toiletries.The suite was a sanctuary, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. We didn't mind that it was stormy during our first three days in Boracay because we were cozy in our room.5. They provide a variety of dining choices.Mövenpick features four dining venues, each with its own distinct charm and offerings.Mövenpick Boracay Restaurants1. The Market: Specializes in Filipino cuisine.The Good: Serves an extensive breakfast buffet, which we enjoyed every morning. This alone is five stars in our book. Breakfast includes fresh juices, pastries, and options for meat lovers and vegetarians.Limitations: Few options for strict vegans at lunch and dinner.2. Sol Marina Beach Club: Beachfront bar with a view.Great for bar enthusiasts. Perfect for cocktails, dinner, or watching the sunset.3. The Café: Located near reception.Serves desserts and café-style food overlooking a serene garden pond.4. Brezza: An Italian gem and our favorite!The truffle pasta stood out, and the decadent chocolate mousse was unforgettable. They also serve scrumptious pizza.The ambiance, with Italian music and a stunning sunset view, made for a perfect dining experience.6. Amazing staff experienceLet's talk about our favorite server for a hot minute.Bianca, a server at Mövenpick Boracay's Brezza restaurant, made our meal more enjoyable.Bianca exuded a natural charm that made us feel welcomed and cared for. She remembered our preferences, checked in at the perfect time, and ensured every meal detail was spot on. Her radiant smile and friendly attitude were infectious.You don't come across this level of service very often. It's rare to find someone who clearly loves their job, and Bianca shows what top-quality staff Mövenpick has. Her dedication to creating a delightful guest experience deserves recognition. If Mövenpick is looking for a benchmark in customer relations, Bianca sets the bar high.The Other Guy 😏That Market server should learn from her, too. When we arrived and asked why our reserved dinner table was already taken, he just said, "I'll let our captain know about your concern." It felt like a brush-off. He didn't answer our question and seemed eager to move on.First of all, we don't need to talk to their "captain." They should have just informed the other guests that the table was reserved.Second, that was dismissive. He didn't bother checking the system to see if there was indeed an oversight. Honestly, we weren't upset; we were just surprised and wondered why someone was sitting there. It's no biggie—mix-ups happen, and we get that. But that response was frustrating.Fortunately, the female server who had personally reserved the table for us spoke to the manager. From then on, they ensured the table was reserved for us for the rest of our stay. They didn't have to go that extra mile. The manager did top-notch customer service, and we truly appreciated their effort to make things right. Everyone else did a great job during our stay. Maybe that guy was just having a bad day. I'll give him that. 7. Movenpick's Signature Chocolate HourEvery afternoon from 3:00 to 4:00 PM, guests are treated to an array of free chocolates: brownies, chocolate fondue, cookies, and more. It's a delightful indulgence for both kids and adults. Let's just say we didn't hold back!Fun Seasonal Events & ProgramsWe stayed there during the Halloween week. The resort hosted family-friendly events, including games and activities for kids.The staff also invited us to come back during the holidays as they prepared fun programs for Christmas and New Year's.These thoughtful details show Mövenpick's dedication to creating memorable experiences for every guest and maintaining a family-friendly atmosphere. 8. You'll love the private beach Staying at Mövenpick grants access to its exclusive private beach, reserved for guests of Mövenpick, Crimson, and Shangri-La. It offers a tranquil escape from Boracay's busier main beaches. Unlike Stations 1-3, where vendors, loud music, and lively crowds are common, Mövenpick provides a calm environment for those seeking relaxation away from the crowds.Here's what stands out:Tranquility: No constant interruptions from vendors. Those present at the far edges respect boundaries and approach only if called.Sheltered Location: Nestled between Crimson and Shangri-La, the beach is naturally shielded from strong winds, even on windy days that we were there.Safe and Comfortable: Lifeguards are on duty, with clear swimming condition flags. I recommend wearing water shoes because of some coral along the shoreline (it's not the signature powdery sand of Boracay in this area).Extra Touches: Towels are provided after a swim. Tip: Ask for towels fresh from the laundry, as they are warmer.The soft white sand, turquoise waters, and breathtaking sunsets make this private beach a slice of paradise. The yellow lines mark where turtle eggs are buried in the sand.9. Gorgeous multi-level poolThe resort boasts one of the most beautiful pools I've seen, with:Multiple levels spanning a vast area.A safe 4-ft depth, suitable for kids and non-swimmers.Water volleyball, Jacuzzis (blower-only, no heater), and a dedicated shallow section for toddlers.The pool offers breathtaking views of the beach, creating a stunning backdrop for relaxation. It's only a few steps from the restaurants, so you can quickly get snacks and drinks.10. Relaxing massage at the Mövenpick Boracay Sagay SpaAs spa enthusiasts and self-proclaimed spa critics (lol), my husband and I were impressed with the treatments at Sagay Spa:Exceptional Therapists: Jenny (?), my husband's therapist and my own, MJ, and Sun were highly skilled and attentive. High-quality oils: I love that they used high-quality oils that absorbed well, leaving skin soft and lightly scented. (Unlike other spas, there's no need to wipe you with hot towels after the session.) I believe lavender, floral, and peppermint are the available scents. A serene ambiance complete with soothing scents and music.Although pricier than other spas (2,500 Php, or $43, for 60 minutes), it was a pleasant experience overall.Suggestions for MövenpickWhile Mövenpick Boracay delivers an overall fantastic experience, a few areas of improvement could make a significant difference:Enforcing the No-Smoking Policy: Smoking outside designated areas was a recurring issue during our stay. Some guests smoked near The Market sunbeds and behind Brezza, just steps from the designated smoking zone. 🤦While this isn't the resort's fault, it detracts from the tranquil environment and affects non-smoking guests. Clear signage and reminders at check-in could improve compliance. A firm but gentle enforcement approach is key to preserving the resort's pristine atmosphere.Vegetarian, Vegan, and Pescatarian Dining Options: The breakfast buffet had a good variety, but lunch and dinner menus, especially at The Market, need more inclusive options for dietary restrictions. Adding more vegetarian, vegan, and pescatarian choices would improve the experience.Maintenance at the Fun Hub: Certain facilities, including the billiards table and cue sticks, showed signs of wear. Keeping these well-maintained would ensure the Fun Hub remains a fun retreat for guests.Localized Social Media Presence: Creating dedicated social media accounts for each Mövenpick location would improve direct communication, allowing guests to ask location-specific questions without being redirected to general contacts.Why Visit BoracayBoracay is a tropical paradise renowned for its powdery white sand, breathtaking sunsets, and warm, hospitable locals.

Books Book Review: Born Of Ice by Daisy Thorn 7:50 AM Book Review: Born of Ice by Daisy Thorn We are stronger together, Exton. We are made of one. We are born of the same ice.Born of Ice by Daisy Thorn might just be her most electrifying love story yet. I’m so used to her sunny romcoms that have me snorting with laughter and shaking my head at the ridiculous, over-the-top devotion of her love-struck heroes. But this book? It’s different. It’s darker than her previous works, not because it lacks heart, but because it dives into pain, loss, and the raw, messy journey of healing and rediscovery. And yet, I love this book just the same (maybe even more). Needless to say, I was thrilled to receive an advanced copy and share my Born of Ice book review with you.Born of Ice Summary⛸️ For Electra Monroe, life was golden—an Olympic figure skating dream within reach and a love story set to last a lifetime—until a single moment shattered everything. Now confined to a wheelchair, she’s bitter, broken, and hiding from the world in a cabin by the frozen lake. 🏒 Enter Exton “Axe” Quinn, one of the best defensemen in the league, a gruff hockey player with a bruised soul and a forced time-out from his career. Axe has no patience for coddling and even less for Electra’s sharp tongue. Despite their rocky start, their clash of personalities slowly turns into a powerful bond. Together, they confront their demons, rediscover their strengths, and ignite a passionate romance that burns so intensely, it's impossible to extinguish.Exton on Electra:𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑟𝑦 𝑒𝑙𝑓.

For a book about people who live and breathe ice, Electra and Axe just blaze and burn with a passion that could melt glaciers. And you won’t hear me complaining.Intense ExchangesFrom the get-go, their dynamic is explosive. Axe walks - no, he literally barges - into Electra’s life with the subtlety of a sledgehammer, calling her a “cripple” (yes, you read that right) and bossing her around like he owns the place. Let me tell you, I was livid. This wasn’t the charming, grumpy-but-hot male lead I’m used to swooning over. Axe was just… mean. But I trust Daisy, having read her previous works. And she delivered.Ultimately, Axe turns out to be one of the few people who really believes in, cares about, and protects Electra. Someone reliable and supportive. 𝐼 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑠𝑎𝑦 𝑖𝑡. 𝐼 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑒𝑥𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑙𝑦 ℎ𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑑. 𝐼 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑒𝑥𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝐼 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑠𝑝𝑖𝑙𝑙 ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑏𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑑 𝑜𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑖𝑐𝑒. Engrossing & Straight to the HeartWhat follows is a slow, raw unraveling of two people who are as broken as they are stubborn. Thorn does what she does best: she peels back the tough, icy exteriors to reveal the messy, vulnerable humanity underneath.Electra’s pain and bitterness felt so real I wanted to reach into the pages and hug her. The frustration of losing everything you’ve worked for, the helplessness of being treated like you’re worthless—it’s gut-wrenching.But Axe, infuriating as he is, becomes the force she desperately needs. He doesn’t coddle her or offer empty platitudes. Instead, he challenges, pushes, and sees her like no one else.Swoony“𝐼’𝑙𝑙 ℎ𝑢𝑟𝑡 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑦𝑜𝑢.”I adored their raw, vulnerable moments.Not in a pity party or a “let’s be toxic together” way. But in a “seeing the beauty and strength in each other’s brokenness and lending that strength in return” kind of way. Allowing each other to feel the pain they buried deep so they can bring it to light and face it head-on.𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑘𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑖𝑠 𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑒, 𝑠𝑜 𝑖𝑡’𝑠 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑙𝑦.

Axe is battling his own demons—his fractured relationship with his father and the weight of his past—and Electra becomes the light that helps him face them.𝐽𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑡𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑜𝑢𝑐ℎ 𝑜𝑓 ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑓𝑢𝑒𝑙𝑠 𝑚𝑒 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑑𝑎𝑦𝑠.

He sees her as more than her accident, more than her lost dreams, and never gives up on her—even when she’s given up on herself. He pushes her, challenges her, and refuses to let her wallow in her pain, not out of cruelty but out of belief in her strength.𝐼 𝑚𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡’𝑣𝑒 𝑓𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑛 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝐸𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑟𝑎 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑦 𝑠ℎ𝑒 𝑖𝑠, 𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑒𝑙𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑖𝑟 𝑎𝑛𝑑 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑠𝑝𝑖𝑟𝑖𝑡 𝑏𝑟𝑜𝑘𝑒𝑛, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝐼 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑘 𝐼 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑡𝑜𝑜 𝑚𝑢𝑐ℎ 𝑡𝑜 𝑙𝑒𝑡 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑦 𝑖𝑛 𝑖𝑡.When they first met, both were in a dark place, each “crippled” by the burdens they carried.

Despite the icy setting, a snowy town, a frozen lake, and characters constantly on the ice, this book burns hotter than the tropics.

The pivotal moment that changed everything. Those two little words (don’t worry, no spoilers here) sent shivers down my spine. Goosebumps! I’m talking full-body, heart-pounding, oh-my-God-what’s-happening vibes. I was gasping, holding my breath, and practically praying alongside Electra. The intensity of it all left me stunned. Dumbfounded, exhilarated, and absolutely panicking all at once. It was explosive, unforgettable, and packed with so much emotion. How do you even explain that kind of magic?Daisy Thorn. The storyteller that you are.More than Just a Heart-throbbing RomanceBorn of Ice is raw, fiery, and deeply emotional. Electra and Axe’s story isn’t just about finding love in a hopeless place (yes, that’s a Rihanna song). It’s about fighting for yourself and each other, even when the odds seem impossible. It’s about reigniting that burning flame inside you, even when it feels like it’s been buried under layers of snow for too long. 𝑆ℎ𝑒’𝑙𝑙 𝑤𝑎𝑙𝑘, 𝐼’𝑚 𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑖𝑡.

It’s about forgiveness, not just for those who’ve hurt you, but for yourself. It’s about breaking free from the lies that tell you you’re not worthy or incapable, the lies that keep you trapped in your own metaphorical wheelchair.This journey is as much about love as personal redemption and resilience.VerdictI highly recommend it to anyone who loves heartfelt, emotional love stories with a generous side of heat.Favorite Quotes“𝐷𝑜𝑛’𝑡 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑡 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑚𝑒.
