On The Soft Side Of Things

Today was both a good and sad day. A high school batch mate recently passed away. We weren't close and at one point even got into a misunderstanding. But it's always sad when someone goes, especially unexpectedly. I think of all the people she left behind...and my heart grieves with them. 

We often forget how every second counts. The "Now" is the only reality we have, we have to live it and embrace it. You have to tell the people that you love just how much you love them. You have to find a reason to smile, everyday! Even for the simplest things. 

 Laugh hard. Give forgiveness. Forgive yourself. Eat chocolates. Draw, paint, sing, dance. Be thankful. Hug your sister. Tickle your brother. Wear bright pink lips. Let go. Set free. Anything and everything. Don't let the moment pass you by. 

It was a good day because I saw some of my high school friends, almost burnt my hair with the blowdryer, spent some time with my boyfriend and his family. Ok, so maybe the burning my hair thing is not so great. I panicked as strands of hair just fell from my head. Nonetheless, I like this day. How was yours?

PS. The horseshoe ring was a gift of my dad to my mom. It has their names and the date 2-14-77 engraved on it. It's older than me! Now that's a treasure. 

It's Your Moment

I used to be a planner. I plan my outfit days before and I have reserved outfits in case something goes wrong. I'd locked myself up in our room and go wild with my clothes. Lately though I just grab anything in sight and pile it on. Sometimes it works, other times I look exactly like that: piled on clothes. My point is... actually I don't think I have one. I just ramble a lot. 

Anyhows, talk about irony. I was just saying how I'm going to cut my hair short in the previous post and now it behaves like that. I like it. I like it a lot. If only it'll stay that way everyday. Now, I'm having second thoughts about that pact. We'll see. 

I'm a little saddened by my blog, walang activity. hahaha...Do you guys have any thoughts, violent reaction, suggestion, requests or fashion challenge? Maiba lang. Lemme know.

Jeffrey Campbell So Much

These shoes are haunting me. I want them so bad but I'm trying my very best to stick to my shopping ban. They are kinda amazing but the price tag is a little scary. 

Natawa lang ako kasi sabi ng friend ko when he saw the Skate, "Ano yan? parang hawakan ng hagdanan..." hahaha.. I love hearing a guy's perspective. My boyfriend hates it too which makes me love it more. hahaha.. 

The So Much however got the boyfriend approval except for the sky high heels. And I love it more and want it bad. 

I need help. 

A Whole Lot of Green

Gloomy gloomy weather. It was raining quite hard so I couldn't set up my tripod. Had to ask the boyfriend to take my photos. Do we like his point of view??? 

Anyhows, I realized I've been slacking on my posts. My apologies. It's partly because of the weather (makes it hard to take photos) and also because I realized I was doing a variation of "blazer-long top- lita". I need inspiration. 

I need to trim those bangs but I'm a little hesitant to go back to my hairdresser. He sort of swore that he'll cut my hair na the next time I see him. yeah, I'm still a little attached to it at the moment. But I did make a pact with myself. If I reach my target weight I'll cut my hair really short. A bob or pixie! Yay or nay??? What do you think? 

HONEY!!! Don't Gooooo...

So Saturday despite being sick, off I went to meet up with these gorgeous people. It felt good to be with them because I think bloggers have this unique connection with each other. Siguro lahat kasi kikay so may bond with each other.Not that I'm a full time blogger or anything..

JC Loving.

Pax, Mike, Honey, Aie, Me, Kookie, Ava, Karl and Keigh

Ikaw na Honey... Ikaw na!

I love lokaret girls!

And that walk from Omakase to Happy Lemon was an experience on it's own. Hindi naman kasi yun Fort or Rockwell na sanay ang mga tao. The common uniform in Greenhills is shirt, shorts and flats. So imagine when Kookie walked past them...lilingunin talaga. It was really funny hearing people's comment on her shoes (which I kinda covet..).

 I think this meet up is a testament on my shyness yet again. Yes, Kookie nagsalita naman ako...pero I think mas madaldal pa din ako sa totoong totoong buhay. hahaha...Btw, I was a little surprised when you asked.:D

Anyhows I really did have fun with you all. Gradual lang ang pag warm up ko. Let's do this again.

And Honey, it really was bittersweet for me to meet you. I fell in love with you  (and your tiny bag). You were awesome.. there's this genuineness in you that is rare.  Na-sad ako kasi I missed out on having more bonding times with you. I know you'll be back naman...but still. Basta. Love kita! Sige na, lumevel up ka na!
