HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE

This is how I celebrated the last half day of 2012 and also my birthday. 2012 has been one crazy ride for me. I had laughters, I had tears, but I can't deny the fact that this year is one of the best and the craziest ride.

HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

THE RED IMAGES

A glimpse to what we've been busy last week. The first photo is a teaser from the set of photos I had from the graduation photo shoot. At 7:00 in the morning we're already at the RED Images studio, be sure to come early because the make up and photo sessions is in first come first serve basis. When we finished, we're all pretty exhausted yet satisfied with the results, even though there is only about 8 photos I love out of 38 photos. It took us 9 hours to get everything done and went straight to UST to attend class. I'll upload the whole set of photos maybe after a month... and of course the shoot wouldn't be complete without the JEJE photo.

WATCH THE BLOCK

Some people shop when they are depressed or sad to feel happy for a short time. Yesterday I found out that when it comes to me, it is totally different. I shop when I'm happy. Yesterday, the best friend and I had our early Christmas shopping. We hoarded accessories at Forever21 because of the big discounts that makes it even cheaper than Tiangge or Bazaars. If I were you I will start shopping this early to beat the holiday rush.

CÉLINE is one of the color block pioneers and that's the inspiration of my outfit. I love how you can pair it with such simple classic pieces and look in style right away. Until now I still have a thing for rolling up my pants, I feel more relaxed and walk out in style this way.

Just a quick post before I start reviewing for final exams. Yeh I know, I should be studying right now but my body and mind is experiencing excessive unwillingness to start. One more hell week to go and 1st semester is finally over. Looking forward to the weekends.

SUNDATE

Last Sunday the sister, the best friend and I had a little date after attending the Sunday mass. We had lunch at Chili's, which is one of my favorite restaurant. We ordered big mouth burger (no picture because we get too excited to eat it) and crispy chicken salad (it should be grilled chicken salad but I ordered the wrong salad.) Have you seen the movie The Perks of Being a Wallflower? Not yet? If I were you I'll watch it really really soon! I enjoyed the movie as much as I enjoyed the book. ;) and of course Spanish Sardines and Olives Pasta for the day finale/dinner at Mary Grace, Greenbelt. The interior is perfect and homey, far from the usual Mary Grace I dine at Trinoma.

Spending the day having fun, eating what we please and watching a good movie is my perfect kind of Sunday before hell weeks starts.

BUSTED

I know I'm lacking updates lately. These photos were taken last month during my 3 days stay back home. I don't know if it's because of the absence of inspiration or it's just because my laptop is BUSTED!!! 

At this moment, I should be studying, I'll be having a major quiz tomorrow and I haven't studied anything yet. I don't know, it's just that I don't feel doing anything right now.

SUNBAKED

 Summer started weeks ago but still I haven't enjoyed it a lot. Since I came here in the province, Camarines Norte, I'm staying all day inside the house because of the stormy-ish weather we have here. When the sun starts to show up, my body temperature started to rise too. I had high fever for 4 days. It felt really bad. So yeah, all my plans of taking pictures about my summer vacation and having photo shoots with friends were all f*cked up. Well, summer just started over, I still do have a month and a half for all the plans I have. I'm feeling in need of hitting the beach, hopefully on a white beach near me.

Happy summer everyone! How's it going so far?

DRESS CODE REVAMPED!

STRICTLY BUSINESS

COLOUR BLOCK

POLKA POP

IN UNIFORM

 

Gone are the days when the common perception of an Accountancy Student is that of a bespectacled number cruncher sitting on the sidelines. It is now replaced by an individual with a commanding presence who is able to demand attention without much effort. With a pop of colour and a slew of interesting shapes and patterns, AMV students should not feel restricted by the imposed rules, rather, they should be skilled at working their way around these rules without breaking the dress code.

I can't put into words how happy I am to see my works in the magazine of the official publication of UST - AMV College of Accountancy. To tell you the truth I have been waiting for this magazine, to come out, for so long. I think there's only about 1200-1300 copies released. Lucky are those who got one.
