My favorite mistake

Tryin' what a light post could do to a 200 iso film at night; + burn. A blurry + grainy shot of a statue elephant. Close up: fast moving car turning into light streaks. Light streaks from the sun + a shadow of my friend somewhere along the leaves. Obvious failed attempt to hold on to a cloud. The mixture of colored pens + plastic cover = DIY colored lens; + burns. Obvious intersection of people-over-people. I swear to you that the fading pink flower was my main subject. NOT Once again, the leaves were my subject. *sarcasm* Life isn't this dark and orange-y. Light streaks from the stairs. You know how certain subscriptions on the web gave you monthly mail about their website? Well, the Lomography website gave a web magazine sometime last month and (don't screw what I'm about to say) I had just recently opened the links connected to the mail. Talk about late! But I guess reading from it, makes me miss...

shoes and love

Image
Above all, believe in true love and know that men are like shoes. A couple is like a left and a right foot, and out there is your perfect fit. Sometimes you need to change styles and shop around to find it. Sometimes you have to break styles in, sometimes you feel like something that is unstylish but comfortable, and sometimes a style - as much as you like - just doesn't suit you and will never fit. - Camilla Morton (How to Walk in High Heels)

Take it all in

“Being tender and open is beautiful. As a woman, I feel continually shhh’ed. Too sensitive. Too mushy. Too wishy washy. Blah blah. Don’t let someone steal your tenderness. Don’t allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart. Nothing is more powerful than allowing yourself to truly be affected by things. Whether it’s a song, a stranger, a mountain, a rain drop, a tea kettle, an article, a sentence, a footstep, feel it all – look around you. All of this is for you. Take it and have gratitude. Give it and feel love."   -  Zooey Deschanel I found this quote on one of the blogs that I follow, and I realized how open girls usually are. But as for me, I think I'm becoming less of it. In some way, I think I'm turning into a stone –a Stonehenge to be exact –big and lost in an indescribable world .  And with that, I'll depart for a week of soul searching in this Holy Week that's coming. I really hope to bring my spirits back...

I had been lost, but now I have been found. Thank God!

Another tiring day has past. I spent 12 hours of my day in school yesterday, and that involves going through different buildings and establishments. So one of my errands took me to go to the Main building to get my.. Graduation Pictures! Creative Shot! hihi The pictures were camera shots only, since I don't have a scanner. Sorry! From the graduation picture to the creative shot, I like the creative better. I don't really like seeing myself in any formal scenarios. So should I say I am more informal? DUH. (Graduating rant soon.) After the trips to main, Nicole, Patt and I went to eat at Jolibee since we're in a strict budget. Well, I don't really have a 'budget' but I have to lessen my expenses since there are a lot of events happening this week. I'll be blogging all about it when it happens. ;) After having lunch, we went to SDA building because Nicole wanted to go there and buy a centennial shirt *wink *wink (here's one of t...

A Series of Unfortunate Events

Image
Just want to post something random. This was my very first stored value card, which I bought yesterday. Firsts are everything. :> But today totally blew that 'everything' off. My SVC got invalid, thus I have to retrieve it next week for its replacement. #1stbadluck Pikachu is always irresistably cute! :> Plastic or real? Hihi :> So hard to understand what the reason is. Ehhh This is so scary and yet so cute! :> Hi bro *high six*! As my brother always tell me, 'Kizmo is always sad and down'.  Waiting for Richard, our driver, to drive me to the mall. My welcome screen!

Happy girls are the prettiest.

I'm feeling extremely happy despite the abundant stress and hassle experienced today. I must say that this day is the most busiest day I have ever encountered. To start it off, I had to be at school by 6 AM to set-up and prepare for our Fashion Overdose event. It just feels so good that all of my groupmates are happily cooperating with our event. Well, maybe the fact that they are mostly a batch lower than us, makes them be like that. Oh I love the 109 batch! The event was a blast, though there weren't much audience to show up, but it wasn't imporant! What's important is what we had presented and I know that our professor did not expect us to arrive at an event as beautiful as that! Yes! I'm proud like that! I just have to mention that the food served was the bomb! Becky's Kitchen and Cielo's are a must try! :D My next stressful agenda was our report about Morocco. Yes! I do admit, my friend Faith and I crammed. We took up most of...

I have a reason to be happy.

The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart.   - Thich Nhat Hanh Last night, I realized what my current role in this world is- to make other people happy. I had a huge selfish attitude before and that selfishness brought me to situations that I did not like. It brought me to an attitude, I never would have liked; but what could I do, I could not stop myself. It feels, as if, I have to do this because I do not have nothing for myself. Yes, I had those times when I grew mad to a person for no right reasons. I had those times when I blame others, for the times I could not handle myself. Those were the times that I truly lost myself, times where I did not know what to do. But then, reality hit me hard. I started to realize and face what I have become. It was not easy being what I have become and thus, I tried very hard to tame myself from this. Last night, as I was about to drift myself to sleep, I pondered and evaluated how...
