Pieces of My Month March

Happy Tuesday everyone!
I have just realized that the first quarter of 2014 have passed and I am loving my year so far. There are times when I wish I could have done more but I guess it's better to give myself a pat on the back and celebrate my successes rather than being too harsh on myself. Sometimes, I tend to forget I can only do enough.

First week of March, I was able to celebrate Fat Tuesday with my church friends. Fat Tuesday, if you have no idea what it is, is the day before Ash Wednesday--the start of Lenten season. Since Fat Tuesday is the day before fasting and abstinence, devout Catholics are having a merry gathering of food and laughter before pursuing a month of sacrifice and soul-searching.

Aside from the beginning of Lenten season, March also marks the start of summer. I had an early summer with my friends at Bakas River, Norzagaray, Bulacan. The place is such a marvellous tranquil, perfect for escaping the urban life. .

March is also about getting used to new routines, working hard, new acquaintances, revisiting old friends, being in love, and just living a well-balanced life.

My 8-5 is mostly composed of this mess.

Love is divine.

I still get to receive flower with no particular reason at all.

Finally, catching up with my old college friend

I get to enjoy listening to radio every morning after waking up and every night before I fall asleep.

I fell in love with a dwarf.

(Kung ganito kagwapo ang duwende, hindi na ako magtatabi-tabi po.)

I became obsessed with these lines from "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug"

At least, I get to enjoy doing calligraphy once again.

I also post my "Push Mo Yan, Girl" - my own bucket list here in this blog. You can view it here if you want. I feel naked presenting my goals and dreams to the world. The challenge is up but to show the universe what you want is a liberating process. It feels as if I am claiming them and I believe in them more.

I am happy I get to continue writing Pieces of My Month. I am enjoying this blogging thing. It's hard, really, but I am happy I get to continue what I'm doing, building this nook every single time I post an entry. It is such a marvellous hobby.

Thank you, March 2014. Thank you, dear readers. Thank You, Father God for everything.

Bye for now!
See yah!

My PIERCINGS- Accidents, Stories, Reasons.. etc.

Elow elow elow Dear Reader! So, today, I bought new set of earrings and I realized, I haven't really talked about my piercing experience. So, I thought maybe I should answer some common questions about my piercings and piercing in general. How many piercings do you have? As of the moment, I have a total of six individual piercings. Three on the left ear, three on the right. When did you get them and why? 1. The first pair was done when I was four or five years old. I remember my father bringing me to a little health center and telling me to just tilt my head and that was it. I don't have much to say about this piercing because it was like a "default" kind of thing - sort of a tradition or one of those mandatory things a girl has to go through- so nothing special in this pair. Also, I was too young to remember how it felt like. Too young to even comprehend. But I remember being happy having the privilege to wear such pretty gold earrings. I had the rest ...

Jazzy Collections Eyebrow Gel

I was doing a little stroll along beauty section when the sales assistant asked me, "Ma'am, ano pong nilagay niyo sa kilay nio, ang ganda kasi e, sanay na sanay kayo magkilay..." "Maam, what product did you use on your eyebrows? You are really good on doing your brows!" Truth is, I wasn't always this good with brows. I had my fair share of uneven brows, messy brows, overplucked, bushy, wrong shape, wrong curves. But by having those mistakes, I learned how to perfect my brows, I learned by doing, which I think is one of the most important thing when it comes to make-up. You learn every single time you do it. I still do mistakes from time to time, and I am still improving every single day, but I guess that's just the beauty of make-up. Sometimes, you've created a masterpiece, sometimes, you've created a trash... in that way, you enhance your skills. Okay,did I just became very sentimental about eyebrows? Yes, I did. Anyways, ...

EOS Lip Balm, Overrated?

I was looking at old photos in my computer and I saw these cute pictures of EOS Lipbalm and I remembered how much I love this product but I shelved it for various reasons. EOS and I had some good times, you know. I enjoyed the days when kissing it feels fruity on my lips. But then, I have slowly fallen out of love from it. It wasn't because it was a horrible product but because it didn't last on me and I think there’s so many lip balms out there that offers better service than just cute packaging and fruity taste. Let me give you the details of our love story. This product became popular last year because of its cute packaging. So many beauty gurus raved about it but lately, it has been categorized under overrated product list. (Source) It got me into thinking if EOS lip balm is really an overrated product. Why did I shelved this product anyway? I remembered it was a year ago when I got my EOS lip balm in strawberry sorbet. Believe you me, I was so freaki...

Wedding Bliss: Wedding Souvenirs

Today's Wedding Bliss episode will be short and sweet. Just sharing with you our souvenirs during our Wedding. I wanted to give something unique for my principal sponsors and I have been eyeing succulents/cacti during our wedding preps. Good thing, I have a friend who sells cacti and she gave me huge discount for each pot. If you want the same souvenir, you may contact PLANTS ON CUPS on their FB Page . The owner, She, will be happy to rearrange plants according to your preference. This little one is for our wedding guests. We actually wanted something either reusable or edible. Who doesn't like to receive a jar of delicious jam, right? Beerenberg is known to supply 5-star hotels around the metro so we thought this sample size is perfect for our guests to have a taste of fine dining. Also, I think they could reuse the jar for whatever purpose they like. We just attached a little "Thank You Card" for a little bit of presentation. We bought our Beerenberg J...
