You know that feeling when you come home and see that someone’s cleaned your room? That sense of displacement, as if nothing is in it’s right place, and no matter how organized it seems, it’s actually a complete mess?
Yeah.
You know how to fix that when it happens? You tear it all apart. You throw stuff at walls, you break boxes and containers, you kick your fucking drawers off...
New hair alert!
I had my hair done yesterday and am so pleased that I decided to have another change. Hihi. I don’t know if people will like it but I like it so I don’t care if they’ll hate it. Lols.
I’m postponing the photo until Monday. Don’t want to spoil the surprise to my dear friends. ;)

Looks I Love: Marchesa Spring 2012
What I love about this collection: ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING! I’m no expert on fashion but when I appreciate, I make sure it is given good publicity. The structure of the clothes plus the colors are just the perfect mix of femininity, simplicity, and fierceness. Werk!
Here are the ones I really like and would wear if only I’m a size zero:

Singapore 2012
February 8 - 11, 2012.
My parents and I stayed at Marina Bay Sands Hotel. No regrets with the bill, the service is insane. Singaporeans are so warm, and not just only in the hotels but also outside, in the streets. Everyone speaks English and they are so easy to approach when you need to ask for directions. Customer satisfaction: LEVEL 99!
All these are photos of the places I’ve been to.

RIP Sir Niel Lim (James Cartmire)
“Sir sabi mo babalik ka next sem eh.”
I stood there, tears falling, looking at my professor inside a white casket as simple as he is. And I remember the last time I saw him: in a hospital bed, joyously conversing with us. He was weak then, but was still able to sit down and talk to us, laugh and joke around with us. We never had the time to really know him. Those one-hour classes were...

Choose To Enjoy The Rain
Happiness is a choice.
This is something I tell myself everyday. Gone are the days when I ask God when can I be happy with life. Silly me. Happiness is not something we wait to happen in our lives, it is a choice we make along with other decisions that build up our character.
Of course there will be cloudy days along the journey of life, but it’s up to you to make it better. Choose to make...

Velada Tomasina
January 25, 2012.
A day of commemorating the tricentennial (1911) year of the University of Santo Tomas where students, teachers and staff wore period costumes and horse-drawn carriages roamed around the campus.
No cars were allowed inside the university (except the area near the hospital) and we had karwahe(s) instead.
Had Yellowcab for lunch c/o Charriz as her birthday treat...

Why do I love taking pictures?
deepfriedjupiter:
Because you get to capture a certain level of emotion and keep it for a lifetime. Photographs don’t change, unlike the people in it. You can keep photos as long as you want and play a certain memory over and over. This proves that photos really are timeless.
I’m feelin’ like a rockstar right now cos I was able to tweak my layout. Hihihi. This is an achievement for me cos I’m not really someone who’ll have the patience to do this kind of work. Feels good to get it done after like 4 hours and just stare at it and think “damn girl, you did it!”. LOL.

The ABSC and we, the AB student leaders, are encouraging all Thomasians (especially Artlets) to wear Period Costumes on the 25th (Wednesday) in celebration of UST’s Neo-Centennial Year.
Here are some examples of Period Costumes to perk you up for Velada Tomasina:

Mitch's 18th at MOA
Actually Mitch’s birthday really was yesterday (January 18), and we did celebrate her actual turning-of-the-age day at Dapitan. Lol. But today was the legit celebration for her womanhood. Woohoo! So we went to MOA after taking our last exam (yay!). It’s a celebration and after-prelim bonding at the same time with my girls (and a gay). Super fun day, can’t wait for next bonding. I...

I’ll be off the net for a week to concentrate on my exams. So my next update will probably be on Friday.
Have a good week guys!
P.S.: I’ll be on twitter though. :)
I just visited my blog’s archives and found myself incredibly embarrassed of the stuff I posted before. LOL. Forgive me, my dear followers, for I was young then (not that I’m old now).
But the significant things I noticed are:

The Same Friarchy Rizal Warned Us About
“Infertile people can’t marry says Catholic Church” Read article here.
It’s a shame when a church leader quotes from the bible and puts it in a literal context. Marriage is not about pro-creating, it’s about love and the commitment you give to each other in the name of God. Do not distort the message of the bible.
I cannot say any more than this. I cannot believe...

Okay, so.. The first time I got myself a Starbucks planner was 2010. Then I lost it a few weeks after. Sad. So last year I told myself I should be able to get myself two planners during the Nov 2011 - January 2012 planner promo, just cos I had trouble getting one last 2010. I got my Starbucks Planner last November and used it right away. Yeap, I was one excited kid.
And today I got my second...
