My Way or the High Way

Over the weekend, I was really determined to sweet talk everyone at home to go with me on a joyride. No destination in particular. I just want to be in a ride full of my beloved uncles, aunts and family. Why oh why? Cause it's almost summer and I have to let them feel my presence, so that should they have some fantastic vacations, they won't forget that little old silly me exists. Haha! I put on this loose black top which is reminiscent of Isabel Marant's Fall 2012 RTW button downs. Or so I think. I wore jeans for my bottom. Jeans na naman?! Jeans in school, jeans outside school too? Don't shoot me, it's just that I've to wear something that can cover up some bruises on my left leg, reminiscent of all my falling down. Hahaha. I'm trying to be witty here. Or so I think. If you by any chance thought that I'd reconsider wearing heels just because of those two tumbles, then you better stop that thought. Nothing will ever beat my cause to be taller!

Then I went over to where the red car was parked. Which background car looked more appropriate?

Yay! I finally got to say Anne Curtis' "lipstick lang ang labanan!" Hahaha. I'm not a fan of lipstick so putting on a shade as red as this is considered bravery in my book. This actually belongs to my 76 year-old grandma. Rume-red lipstick pa si lola! Estee Lauder pa ha.

I Spent Valentines With My Family

Before my 1PM class last tuesday, I was doing last minute reservations for Valentines dinner date. I wanted to try Restaurant 101, the application school of Enderun Colleges so badly that I didn't mind even if we were on the wait list. Long story short, they gave us the 7-seats I asked for. They have very very very friendly servers, whom I observed were students of Enderun. They served us sumptuous and succulent meals. What else would you expect if the head chef is US Iron Chef Nicolas Cantrel? World class.

my parents

I tried taking photos of the food but my camera couldn't so here's the list of what we ate instead. Each of us had everything that's on it. The dessert was so good that I simply had to take two of the dark chocolate cake or the Louis XV. So much for my diet preparation for summer...

'twas so cool seeing Chef Nicolas Cantrel in action! Hurry up and try his meals!!!

I finished my meal by gulping down two glasses of wine: Brumble 101 and the Rose Wine

How did your Valentines celebration go? :)

And Not A Single Care Was Given

I was going through a major cleaning up and sorting out of photos to relieve my computer from some memory damp when I came across these. You know those days when you think you've really prepared for an event and you badly wanted to document it only to find out in the end that you weren't able to capture even just a significant part of the crazy night you had? This one's an example. I carefully chose what I'm going to wear cause hey, it's the last night of the cruise and that the captain hosted a party on the deck. Foods, particularly chocolates, were overflowing. Speakers were loudly banging. Everyone was dancing, including my brothers who since then have sworn never to dance in public again. It was a fun night, and also it was the night that I truly regret not taking many pictures of.

Notice my short hair then? Well, I'm planning to do something about my crowning glory this weekend. I just can't decide which look to go for. Decisions, decisions.

Rain Boots

Last friday, my day went something like this:

12 noon: I woke up and readied for school. It was raining, as if my prayers the night before were answered.

3pm: I arrived in school for my 2:40 class. I was late, as usual. But because I was late, there was already someone sitting on where I'm usually seated. (I was able to talk to my long time crush though! It turned out, he knew me all along too. Kilig kilig :>)

4:30pm: I was trying to fill out my Starbucks sticker card.

6pm: I did the grocery with my dad, Tito Ian, and Lola Ester for my first cousins who are to arrive from the US.

7:30pm: I had dinner.

Fresh from school

9pm: Lola, Tito and I set up the condo unit where my cousins are going to stay in

I've Always Wanted To Become A Disney Princess

Always have, Always will.

I grew up singing along the Disney theme songs. I grew up collecting magazines of the Disney princesses. I grew up wanting to be one of them. Maybe this is why although I've been to various theme parks, Disneyland would always have a place in my heart.

When It Rains...

As I was readying for school, it was raining. Thinking that it would rain the entire day, like what happened the day before, I slipped on my trusty rubber boots. I wanted to have a reason to wear them to school that's why as soon as the first rain drop poured, I decided that it was the right time already. When I stepped out of the house though, the sun started to shine. Fail.

What I wore

I want to erase you. From my life.

I've never given up on anyone, until now. I've never felt so tired of keeping up with any of your bullshits, until now. And I've never felt so betrayed in my whole life, until now. It's been exactly a week since I started accepting that some persons whom I used to protect and help as much as I can are not the persons whom I thought I knew. So much for trying to be a good friend...

Here's what I wore for today:
