We wondered, would you be a confident Chihuahua, a spirited Mini Pinscher, a vivacious Pom, a charming Pug, or an affectionate Shih Tzu?

  4. Checking into a luxurious resort and signing yourself up for the works—a spa treatment, relaxation therapy, and so on.
  5. Going on a barkada trip to someplace where there’s a little something of everything for everyone—parties, adventure, food, etc.
