Quick Update: Instagram Snaps



Hi dolls! Here's something to break my reoccurring hiatus from blogging. I feel like i've been a little too insta-active lately so I thought that it would be nice to show you how the past weeks was for me through pictures. So here; my insta-snaps!

I am in love with nail-art lately. Simple or not. Nice nails are nice! :))

Digital perm at Be@utybrick! **will blog about this sooon. :)

Camho shots. I <3 my curly hair. Whatcha think? 

Shopped at UNIQLO. :) See the sizes?(*im not bragging >.<) Im just so proud of myself for losing so much weight. I used to be a size M and a 29-30ish. *another blog post on this soon. erm when I have time. sorry. -_-"

Quick post: I'm alive but very very busy.

I just want to share this with you sweeties! My floral nails. Are they dainty? What do you think?

Day 15 ~ Something you don't leave the house without

Of course it will be my kitty berry that looks so pretty with red ribbon on. :))

It's crazy how technology control us no. I'm not exactly into using my phone (i.e., texting, calling, games, etc.) but for emergency purposes and the security i get knowing my mom or whoever i might need at some random circumstances is just a phone call away. (this is a wholesome blog i'm not referring to booty calls or the likes :3 lolol) I'm lost without my phone w/c got me wondering how did i manage before? 

For non techy things I never leave the house without a mini flashlight and a whistle. Months ago I never really cared if I have these survival thingies with me or not but after seeing the havoc the earthquake left at the southern part of my country, (happened months ago) I now prefer to bring it with me anywhere I go. 

I know these won't totally save my life but still if things like that happen and i'm still alive under a huge fragment of something, number 1 rule I know is to conserve whatever's left of my energy, meaning don't move and shout for help use the whistle instead. As for the flashlight you can also use it to call help especially at night time. Our eyes are VERY sensitive to light, that'll increase your chance of being found even if you don't shout or do unnecessary movements. Bringing things like these doesn't mean that you're wishing for bad things to happen just so you could test their effectiveness, it's always better to be ready. OMG I sound like my mom! hahaha :D

P/s: sorry for crappy pix.

p/p/s: sorry for crappy post im desperate to update my blog -_-"

Day 14 ~ A T.V. show you're currently addicted to

It's only tuesday and I already feel that I've already consumed all my stamina reserved for the whole week. Seriously MRT (train) people are like warriors. Our gov't can use them in wars. front liners. and the opposing team won't stand a chance (of course i ride the train for women, and yes i'm talking about ladies). Everyday i'm squished, pushed then pulled, bumped, and squished again. FML! yes everyday. during weekdays. 5 effing days. double FML! I'm thankful i still have my Saturdays and Sundays to let my bones recover and go back to their proper places again. I can't believe i'm saying this so early but "I need rest". :3 Train rides are srsly much more strenuous than my actual job. I'll stop ranting now and move on with this post.


Now back to my current t.v. addiction....

I love watching The Walking Dead, excitement + suspense overload. I know it's gross sometimes (okay most of the time) but i feel the need to watch specially now that the zombie apocalypse (i think) might just happen. Kidding. No srsly i watch walking dead to be ready for zombie apocalypse. do I sound crazy?! But I also watched Zombieland for the same reason. Now i don't just sound crazy. I am crazy! or maybe because of my growing love for Steven Yeun (korean guys y u so cute? <3<3)

Now i'm not sure if I just want to be ready for zombie apocalypse or i just want spend some time watching Steven Yeun run and become sweaty and take off his shirt. Guess i'll just stick to my former reason and risk sounding crazy than my latter reason and appear like a total perv. hahaha

p/s: Enjoy the rest of your week dolls and take good care of yourselves. This perverted crazy girl here LOOOOVE y'all!

Guest Post: Fashion Can Empower You During Cancer Treatment ~ Jackie Clark

After receiving a diagnosis of cancer from your mesothelomia doctor or other oncologist; it's not uncommon to feel defeated and emotionally overwhelmed. However, don't worry ladies, fashion is something that can never lose in the fight against cancer. Raise your spirits up and gain a little pep in your step with looking and feeling beautiful. To feel empowered in your fight against cancer, you incorporate some of these fashion tips to help you look fabulous and feel more comfortable doing it!

Color, color, color!

Color is an instant pick-me-up that can make your complexion look and feel healthier and also make a woman more radiant in her own skin. To bring out your natural glow, incorporate colorful clothing items around your face to bring out the color in your complexion. A vibrant scarf, sweater or head wrap is an ideal way to add a splash of color and liven up and old outfit worn around the house.

Soft Fabrics

When you're feeling low from cancer treatment, it's nice to feel soothed in anyway possible. By wearing clothes made from soft fabrics, you can enjoy luxurious feeling against your skin, while avoiding itchiness or restriction caused by other fabrics. Soft cotton, silk, satin or cashmere feels good against the skin and allows a woman relax in ease. Wear clothing made with these fabrics in some of your favorite colors to spice up your everyday routine.

Spring Fashion

Wintertime isn't quite over but that doesn't mean you have to continue wearing winter fashion. Spring fashion is right around the corner and is typically more colorful and fun as consumers are ready to break free of basic black and big and baggie sweaters. This spring boasts many fashions in bright floral and neon colors. Treat yourself to a few garments that make you feel as if you're breaking free from winter and starting your own personal, inner springtime.

I'm into winter fashion but who doesn't like spring colors right? ~Skye

Comfort and Style

New shoes can add a lot of fun to your wardrobe, as well as color and style. You may not feel like stepping out in the latest stiletto heels but you can wear comfortable wedges or flats to complement some of your favorite outfits. Choose shoes that feel comfortable inside and out, but make sure they have color or a pattern that makes you feel just as sexy as you will look!

When you're dealing with the side effects from cancer treatment, fashion often becomes much about comfort as it does style. Being comfortable and feeling great in your clothing doesn't have to equate to looking frumpy or plain. By incorporating color and soft-textured fabrics into your fashion you can breathe life into your wardrobe and feel beautiful without  sacrificing comfort. The latest fashions as well as the classics have something to offer you in terms of beauty. Shift your focus from sickness to wellness by lifting your spirit and taking control of your appearance with trendy, colorful fashions.

Day 13 ~ Your favorite musician and why?

Hey dolls i'm back from my mini hiatus again and I thought I should drop this Sunday laziness and do something productive for a change. I have been working for a month now and it sure is hard to adjust from bum life to life with work. I kind of miss my sedentary lifestyle. But then no matter how long I stay a loafer time will come that I have to man up and be more independent so it's better to start now. :D

There are three things i learned from having a job: first, elevator rides won't kill you (yes i got over my biggest fear! i feel like a grownup already haha) second, budgeting is the real killer! it's killing me slowly -_-'' and third, once you start to earn your own money you can never go back  to being your "shopaholic" and "impulsive buyer" self. :'(

Back to my once in a long while blog challenge (long way to go but at least i'm trying to finish what i started. Yeah!) please continue reading and give me love. :b

Here goes my most loved musicians:

 

 

I love Keri Hilson, Nicki Minaj & Rihanna because their songs give you an idea of how it's like to fight for what you want, and moving on, and letting go, and the list goes on. Their songs are the songs I sing with my eyes closed even when i'm in a public place. (Kidding that's crazy :| hahaha)

I'm not into kpop but I love C.L. of 2ne1 simply because she's Seoul City's baddest female :))

Who's your favorite musician sweeties? 

excess: Enjoy your week dolls and tell me about it. Big hug!

The teenage dream

Hey dolls! How are y'all doing? Forgive me if I lose anyone because of this post. Forgive me also if I sound wayy too emotional. This post is soooo not me. (not anymore, well I used to be)

I know y'all would be like "what the eff is this crazy girl talking about?" but ohh well I already said sorry.

"maybe it's because he's my teenage dream. Maybe because his kind made my cheeks blush and my heart skip a beat way back my teenage years. Maybe it is physical attraction, maybe it is even more. Maybe because of the respect maybe because of the compliments. The sad thing is it's not meant to be. He's not interested. It's just a crush that makes your teenage fantasy come alive. It's exciting and I'm happy but it will never ever be worth it."

There I said it. I better be done with this craziness. *Insert #foreveralone face

Dad and Mom's 25th Anniversary celebration + what i wore

Hey dolls! Wishing you all a Happy New Year! Hope you enjoyed your holiday big time. :)) I'm really enjoying mine so far specially with the fact that i already have a job! I just started last December 27. Funny because in just the span of two days I already got what I wished for this Christmas. Also I have a never ending list of the blessings I received this 2011, things that I should be thankful for. I only have God to thank for this. :)

Here are the pictures from my parents wedding ceremony and reception:

And i'm not alone. Turned out my sister is also a crybaby. haha

Me giving my speech. Soo emotional T_T

Mommy kissing the crybaby. 

Haha nice move. My sister wore sunnies to hide her tears. :)
