Stressed and Impressed

I guess I bring stress upon myself. I am, yet again, stressing myself over minor details when I could've easily chosen to just let everything be. Take my midterm exam in Marksam for example. (Was that a tongue twister or what? Hahaha) Our class is grouped into 7 and each group must successfully sell a product to our professor. If he buys it on the actual product presentation, lucky group. If he doesn't, then the group has to think of other ways to close a sale with him. He has to buy the product in order to pass. All or nothing. Easy rules. But the procedure is like going through the eye of a needle. Over the weekend, I was with my groupmates in Taft and in The Fort to shoot scenes for our video which will be part of the entire presentation.

My college superbuddy Hannah and I were in The Fort last sunday to interview and get some insights from the management in The Spa since its services and products were what we've decided to sell our prof. I don't know why but Hannah and I seem to love taking the more tedious, time-consuming, and more stressful path. We could've gotten information from The Spa's website and just download videos from YouTube but we did the harder way. Our other groupmates didn't want to work over the weekend and the two of us insisted that we do. So in the end, the others weren't stressed out and the two of us looked as though we need the spa package more than our professor could've find use in it. What's up with us, Hannah? Haha!

Sisterhood is complete! Hello Lina from the phone :)

Don't be fooled with the pictures. We worked that day more than we enjoyed ourselves.

With Hannah's sister, Alyssa, who acted as our videographer/photographer. Thank you, tall baby sister! I was tiptoeing in this picture cause I didn't want to look like the dwarf that I am. Hahaha

Thanks to the Dar Juans for the photos

Henyo Eh

Why do we keep on saying we know all things? Henyo eh. Don't get me wrong, I was referring to our two days in a row game of Pinoy Henyo. My phone turned out to have such application so whenever we feel like testing how good we are at playing charades, we use my phone. Don't judge, syunga (stupid) lang. Hahaha! I was thinking of entitling this post either 'Henyo Eh' or 'Sisterhood... Plus One' but the latter was outweighed by the first cause until now, I can't get over the excitement of playing the game with my syunga turned henyo friends.

The Emotional Punching Bag

My college emotional punching bag celebrated her 18th birthday in Vikings restaurant. First, let me clear the reasons behind her title. You know those days when everything seems to be going the opposite direction of what you've been wishing for and all you want to do is scream in frustration? Or those days when you've prepared so much for your speech or quiz to be affronted with the "quiz won't push through until next week". Or those days when you simply don't have anything to do so to while your time away, you start picking on someone. Mind you, not once did I use the word 'bully' to describe it. Cause it's really not bullying. It's more of showing your love and appreciation of her presence in a less cheesy way. Get the picture?

When my class ended at 1pm, I met up with Lina in Glorietta where we killed the our time by checking out the new books and new stuff in the racks of some stores we love, and also by watching a certain movie, for the second time. Yup, we loved it! Have I mentioned that she and I were also on time for the dinner celebration? Our being on time, which is rare I tell you, is our birthday gift to the celebrant. Hihi

But of course before we achieved her look in the previous photo, we had to do some last minute retouch. Thanks to hand dryers for being instant hair lowers. Haha!

My college sisters


I love it whenever others start taking out their cameras to take pictures of us :"> Hahaha!

The only person who can appease my bipolar side - I missed you, Tintin!

Late for Class, Early for Lunch

I think I know what's going to be on top of my Christmas wishlist - a Lumix or a Canon Ixus 115 or any other digicam for that matter. There's nothing more that I could wish for than to have my daily activities documented but my current camera's preventing me from doing it. I love my SLR but for day by day purposes, it's not wise to bring it. It's too heavy and it occupies almost the entire space in my bag. So much for my rambling...

Anne celebrated her 20th birthday in, where else but, Dolce Latte. It was so sweet of her to invite me and Lina. From school, we went straight to their restaurant. 

I came down to two options: whether to wear heels or my topsider. In the end, I had to ditch the heels because I'm restraining myself from wearing them to school.

One of the boys kami eh!

Spot the extra :-" Hahaha

I simply had to take this cake home with me. Chocolate indulgence (read: calories, calories, and a few more calories)

Around 4pm, I had to leave with Lina already because I was supposed to meet my friend Verlyn Guiyab while Lina was to be fetched from my place. Eat and run athletes if you may. Hahaha!

Belated happy birthday, Anne! :)

The Photoshoot in the Airplane

I was browsing some Multiply sites because I needed ideas on a project that I'm currently working on. I'll let you guys in on the details once everything is final. So anyway, as I was browsing, I came across this site and a little click here and there, I saw my friend Lina's pre - debut photoshoot. 

You'll never see an ice cream vendor as chic as her ;)

P.S. My 2nd term has started today so forgive me if my posting's going to slow down.

The Final Exam

As soon as our final exam ended, we went to Podium to celebrate Hannah's birthday party. 

Another matchy matchy outfit! Believe me, we don't talk about what we wear.

See you, guys after our one week term break!

Thanks, Hannah, for having your party in my favorite mall of all time (Remember my post on The Podium? If not, click HERE) which is somewhere near my place instead of booking for a place near South. I truly appreciated it. Belated Happy Birthday, sister :)
