Speak and Style

"Love with every stranger, the stranger the better."| hozier It was one Friday afternoon that I decided to cut my long and wavy  hair. It was not a Eureka moment  because I have planned on cutting it since then. If you ask me why? Beyonce did it. Emma Roberts did it. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley did it. And for the love of Hozier, yes I did it. Well not exactly, part of the reason why I did such thing because my idols did it. Yeah, I just did it for the trend. Nah, just kidding Many people believe that when a girl cuts her hair or changes her hairstyle, she is going through something dramatic in her life and wants to forget it. But I am not exactly going through something dramatic or heartbreaking but I am going through a major self reinvention. Okay, so I sound like I am a scientist doing some experiment. But no really, in my pursuit of becoming the best that I can be I reckoned that I should change some old and bad habits.  I badly need this change becau...

Readers and Visitors, I know that you have noticed that my blog is not looking good at the moment. I am still the in the process of improving and upsizing my blog so please bear with all the changes that you will encounter in the coming days. Rest assured, I will be back in the business as soon as I have fixed my blog and finished the major make over. I will also be back posting new blog post the moment I get a hang of my post-college life. I will be back as soon as possible and I will try my best to give you quality blog posts. See you around!

Remember that time when you first had your heart broken? The time when you thought everything was perfect and you found out what a douche he is? The kind of pain that felt right through your heart. Yes, imagine that scenario when you find out that something important to you is gone.  Today, I was so happy because I finally am in the last pages of the book I am currently reading. I was in the brink of excitement knowing that I will be going through my mini bookshelf again and decide what to read next. Only to my surprise that my bookshelf is infested with termites. Yes, TERMITES! They were all over my books and they were feasting on it like it was some kind of a buffet. At first, it was just one book, not until I went through my whole shelf to find out that they have already eaten 1/4 of my collection.  That moment, I knew of the word broken heart. Seeing those books slowly being rotten away by such pests, eating them like they are some kind of grass, I felt my hea...

On Life and Career I thought I would have been a promising blogger by now. I could have applied to become a free lance writer on a local and national magazine. I could have been dressing and styling celebrities by now or become an apprentice of Liz Uy or Rachel Zoe. I thought I would be flying back and forth to different places and become a flight attendant. Well, that was the original dream. If I have to go through my dream book once again, I sure would find those career options that I dreamed to do. But I do not know which way did the wind blew for me to go through a totally different path. Because right now, I am doing exact opposite of my original plans. I do not really remember what happened along the way or what went wrong. But maybe in the long run, I just outgrew my childhood dream. I have done a lot of things, met a lot of people and become inspired by different things that has really caused me to take a different route. Maybe I am just more than capable to do greater thi...

 And so this ends my affair with the academe. But those 14 years of education was not easy for me. Ever since grade school I never had an award so much more during high school. Perhaps being one of the honor graduate in our batch is one of my greatest achievement up to date, And I am so proud of it because I got it out of pure hard work, determination and tons of prayer. It is the result of my sleepless nights, bad hair day, no make-up wednesdays, no dates, no social life and imprisoned in my room for four years. But no regrets. None at all. My friends have also played a big part of it all, if not for our very healthy competition we would not strive hard to always be our best in every project. quizzes and research works. I know I have the best ones since we always tend to make each other better each day. I will miss this bunch (although we are not complete), and I will miss our lunch time jokes, our noisy talks and our boy pranks in school. And as we go our separate ways...

Can you believe it? Just afew more days and I will finally be walking down the aisle! Nope, I am not getting married, I am just getting my diploma. But before I totally say goodbye to USC, I will give you some snippets of our graduation ball which happened last wednesday, March 25, 2015 at Parklane Hotel.   We had an awards night theme for the ball, and so we all agreed to wear something formal. I chose this red velvet gown because it is just so simple yet it exudes with class. Although, my original plan was to wear an entirely different design but then time did not allow me to have that gown custom made. So thank God for my go-to designer Jed Sevilla, who is one of Cebu's finest designers.  For my accessories, of course I flaunt the minimalist in me. A dangling earrings and my favorite rings are always my best friends. The laser cut of the gown itself has already done the part of giving the oomph factor of the over all look. I tell you a secret though,...

Take me somewhere cold. I am writing this post while sipping my iced tea under the sun. Imagine the contrast. Weird. I know, but oh well. This was taken a few weeks ago, and if you really think about it, this was exactly a month ago. Not much of an up to date blogger, huh?   So I chose to wear an all white ensemble during our CUHK tour and our visit to the Victoria peak. I was thinking that even if the weather was a bit cold that day, white can still suffice. And it did. I wore at least three shades of white: plain white, off white and close to gray white. I really did not expect that it will look good to wear. Haha! But anyway, what was good in this look was that it was very comfortable. Even if the material is not suitable for winter, but my insulator jacket did a good job though ;) This was taken on the mountain trail of the Victoria Peak. There were a lot of tourist who went a stroll in here and it took an hour for us to finish the whole walkway....
