I always get stuck in introductions.
I spend a gazillion hours planning it, how it’s gonna jive with the end, how it’s gonna connect with the rest of the story, and I realize how I’ve wasted so much time. I try to make the hook so perfect and cohesive and interesting, that I waste so much time thinking of alternative beginnings, which consequently brings to me alternative endings, and that just messes everything up....

happy place
A lot of people have been asking me about the filters I use for the photos I post here, but I was quite hesitant to answer anonymous ones, because then I’d have to post the answer and I’m not really a fan of the formatting… (Ang arte, shit! =)) ) But well, the latest one had a “Please answer back..” at the end, so okay, I’m answering… HAHAHA! Anyway, I do...

I really really hate you.
I hate how you make me feel. I’ve never felt so alive. And I hate it. I hate it because someday (soon) I know it’s gonna die down, and I’m gonna feel dead and the feeling’s gonna be awful. I’m gonna feel so dead, I’ll hate death even more than I do now. And I don’t want that, because right now, there’s really nothing I can hate more than you.

birthday shoot
Put on a few of my favorite things (see teal/mustard + crop top +leopard + UK flag + bandage skirt + Egyptian-esque necklace!) for my birthday invite!
Hype on Lookbook.nu here! Special thanks to my brother for being my patient adorable photographer! Teehee
I wanted the feel to be a little rugged and street, but then I found this cute restaurant in Ortigas that I really really like, and it...

WatchBecause my blockmates are incredibly sweet and adorable, they made me this video and showed it to me at roughly around 12AM of my birthday. As in pagdating namin sa hotel, they pulled me to couch, turned all the lights off, and gathered around Charles’s laptop. It was so heartwarming, and I will never ever ever ever get over this. *u*

I'm a happy little girl
Last year for my debut, when I got tons and tons of gifts wrapped in fancy paper and boxes, I was actually pretty surprised since I didn’t know people still brought gifts to parties these days. =)) And I got more surprised this year, because I was just expecting a very chill, simple, and intimate good time with friends, but they were sweet and thoughtful enough to buy gifts for my 19th!...

indian summer
It’s officially summer! (There’s still this Genetics paper, but whatever..) I have two weeks before summer classes take over my life again, so I’ll try to go out (and dress up) as often as possible to make the most of this short-lived summer goodness. =)) (Hunger Games later! *u*)

land of conical hats and four-seater motorcycles
Last last weekend, I had enough guts to leave the country in the middle of hell week, no, in the middle of a series of hell weeks, because I definitely wasn’t thinking straight (or looking at the calendar right) when I booked that flight to Vietnam.
This isn’t new though cause I did the same thing for Thailand before, and it didn’t turn out so bad! Sure, I missed a whole...

preppy in plaid
In an oversized blazer (that I got from Jerusha’s online store way back) and in my new “school shoes” (that I suddenly bought cause my blockmates kept reminding me of how small I am ;___; huhu insecurities and an excuse to buy platforms!)
Went straight to the airport after school so didn’t have to chance to change. Right decision thought cause it took us almost 4 hours...

Back in Makati
I have breathed Makati air for more than half of my life, and when you’ve stayed in a place for too long, you pretty much learn to look past all the smog and dirt and to a kid in jumpers and lace socks, its busy commercialized streets can pass off as your playground the brightly lit skyline as your own personal version of utopia. I have had enough time to go around the place and acquaint...

who run this mothaa
It’s International Women’s Day (and classes were supposed to be suspended, sayang..). And I’d have to say na in fairness, I felt pretty empowered today! Hahaha!
For one, I wore this weirdly (read:awesomely) cut dress to school and tucked the front part in just because I felt like it (fuck yeah! haha waley). And I wore shorts with it, like I didn’t give a fuck about...

stubborn, as usual
After fixing and rearranging my closet, I realize I really haven’t used everything in it, so I finally get why my mom’s always mindfucked that I always have to buy new clothes or that I always have “nothing to wear”. So new resolution, I can’t repeat clothes anymore until I’ve used them all! Bahahahaha >:)
But other than that new resolution, I’m back...

February in a nutshell
You’ll see that I pretty much deserted Tumblr for the entire February, partly because all Fridays + weekends were literally packed with events, and partly because I’ve been I was a mess then. I really don’t know how to explain it, but I guess my weekly log of Photo Booth photos says it all (at least the emotional mess part haha, the events part I’ll be posting soon!)

Hype on Lookbook, yes? ;)
P.S. I’m in a great mood today though I spent all night making the teaser for Induction and I still have to review for Bio115, cause my weekend’s bound to be really awesome. :) And I don’t even have to wait for the week to end, cause...

God always knows what to say. Chosss! Just something I got off Facebook’s “God wants you to know” app. Maybe it’s just me, but it’s kinda enlightening (and accurate!) most of the time, haha. Seriously… =)))
Anyway, God has been pretty generous to me this 2012. He’s always giving me a reason to smile. :) As in I’ve gone through rounds of hell week...

Little miss driver
I’ve been really itching to drive lately.. Especially on those days when I’m running late, and I pass by the parking lot thinking how driving to school would actually save my ass. :(
To be honest though, I never imagined myself driving to anywhere. Actually, driving, period! Because number one, I think I wouldn’t be able to reach the pedals (hahaha true story! ;_; ), and...

Yesterday was a really lazy day, partly because I just got back from the sleepover at Michelle’s with little sleep (thanks to Taboo and early am weirdo talks with Alyssa!), and partly because it was Sunday, and Sunday is always an excuse to be lazy. Sooo because I just really wanted to chill all day wherever the wind (the car) took me, I put on this really loose and comfy sweats from my...

black + gray
Feeling badass, but nah that’s just me being monochromatic again. And me basing most of my outfits on color combinations I really really like and pieces I really really wanna wear. :P
Anyway, hype on lookbook, yes? :)
P.S. I’ve been putting my hair up in a ponytail a lot these days (instead of the usual bun or lugay) cause some of my awesome mambobola friends told me...

teal + floral
Been having really lazy days at school recently - nonstop kain and chill (not that I’m complaining haha) - so I figured I should at least be posting bright happy productive stuff here. So I put together my favorite colors teal and mustard and my favorite floral piece (birthday gift from my friend Lea!) to cheer me up naman. :)
Hype on lookbook, yes? :)
These are pretty much my...

I love pasalubongs
So my mom just got back from her (kind of) business trip in HK, and I found out she bought me really cute stuff from the stores and night markets she went to. My favorite would have to be these terno ribbon earrings and bangles from H&M! ♥
I actually feel a little guilty cause I’ve been off the grid when she was gone. I wasn’t really updating her where I was for the weekend,...

David's Birthday aka PMS Monday
I’m really bored today. And David’s not online to accompany me in my bum day, so I’m just gonna post photos of his birthday celebration last week! =)))
We got free 30” and 36” pizzas from the birthday boy, and he got a cute Christmas tree cupcake from us (plus a sweet(?) moment with his lover(?) Aleena mehehe)
Anyway, don’t be fooled by the laughing...
