GRADUATION DAY

Dress: Zara TRF / Shoes: Zara TRF / Bag: Prada / Necklace: Forever 21 / HMUA: Charisma Vergara

Hola amiga, it's already summer! I know it's been 3 months since my last post. I can't believe it, 1 month hiatus is just too long and I took 3 months. I want to apologize and there are some reasons behind those missing in action moments. Maybe you know it already? Here is the fruit of my labor, I am officially out of college. Hell yeah!

College/University days for me was not that perfect happy fun fun because I got delayed for more than a year. I encountered so many failures, problems, and disappointments. I transferred school twice, adjusted to new environments, met new people, gained new friends. But it didn't stop me, there's always hope inside me. I know in my heart that I can graduate! I am so thankful to my family and friends who are very supportive to my situation. They always inspire, encourage, and enlighten me in everything. I am very blessed. :) 
And here it is, I am now a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and future Registered Nurse of course.

Our graduation was held in Philippine International Convention Center which was still very beautiful and picturesque. I called Mama, Papa, and I as "Team Canary Yellow", obviously we are all wearing yellow and we didn't talk about it. Thank you to my sister who took all the nice photos for my very special and memorable day.

CONGRATULATIONS to Batch 2014!!! xx

KEEP IT COOL

Sorry for a little explosion of photos. This was the start of my day, attended mass at UST before anything else. Actually my Sunday was a very long day and fun fun fun for me and my siblings. Mass then had lunch at Army Navy in Tomas Morato, it was my first time to eat there by the way, I enjoyed their burger and the oh so yummy Libertea (iced tea). Then grocery shopping in Landmark, Trinoma. After that we chilled at my brother's pad then went to Robinsons Magnolia for dinner. What a day right? And take note, I was wearing those platform heels all day til night. Thank God I didn't fall on the ground. I feel very TIRED because of that "tiis-ganda" effect! I hope you understand my situation and I can't keep the story longer.

Do I look like I'm back in the city? Yes yes yes, I'm already in Manila. I just arrived yesterday morning and happy to see my sister again. I also miss my parents who are still in Bicol, I've stayed there for like 3 months straight. But I have to go back and do my stuff here in the metro.

Since I arrived on a Sunday, my sister and I decided to go malling, that was our Sunday rituals. We got sick on the scene of TriNoma so we headed to Mall of Asia instead. We miss the place and we just want to see the new Uniqlo and new branch of Forever21 in there. But we didn't go shopping, just window shopping to feed my hungry eyes of branded garments. Our money or the budget of the day just went to Yakimix, my taste buds are maybe craving for some wasabi, so there you go, an eat all you can buffet of Japanese and Korean cuisine for an early dinner.

How to pronounce Proenza, YSL, Comme des Garcons, etc

Proper pronunciation videos of clothing line names made me laugh so hard. As I saw Bryanboy blogged about this, I listen to it one by one. I'm literally laughing all by my self. They are like drunk, gay, drag queen and clueless on what they are saying. 
I'll just post what's the funniest for me. :))

2ND DAY: City Tour + Sentosa

I bought this Plains&Prints at 50% off last January this 2011. The time I saw that in their mannequin, I'm already sure to myself that I will buy it. Because I know brights will be nice this summer.

But I didn't know that color blocking, and PINK+ORANGE will be a big thing!

Ooooh, I think I can feel or predict some of the upcoming trends. :)

On the morning, we had a city tour riding a bus. We went to river trail again, next was the place where you can see a lot of GEMS, then Orchid Garden, last stop, drop by in Little India.

Toni Gonzaga on Preview April 2011

Yesterday, I went to Manila to run some errands for school. But I need to go back again in Bicol at night.

Before riding the bus, I dropped by to Fully Booked to grab Preview Magazine April Ish. 

 I like this contribution by Lyca Puno, because I really like the Prada S/S 2011 collection. And I was surprised that Olivia&Fifth done something similar. CUTE!

Argh, I will have that dress soon. Magpapatahi na ako!!HAHA
