PIECES OF MY MONTH : JANUARY


Goodness. Is it February already? 2016?

WOW! Time. flies. so. freaking. fast.

The last time I checked, I was just dreaming of 2016. I remember wanting 2015 to end so bad and it feels like 2016 was sooooo far away.

Now that 2016 is here right in front of me, I want to make few changes in this blog. Frequent blog posts. Better content. Improved layout. My own Domain.

Last year, I never get to sustain this "Pieces of my Month" series. I know. I know. Too much pressure, man. Too much pressure. So, I thought of reviving it again, and the timing is just perfect because January has just ended.

Anyhoo, there will be less photos today because I happen to erase ALL of my photos in the camera. Shit happens. Yes they do. So, I thought of just listing random things I did on the month of January.


My Month Currently.

1.  FAVE MOVIE:
THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL
- This has the most beautiful cinematography I've seen in a movie. It has this "instagramish" feel to it and I was salivating over its symmetry and lighting. Every frame is such an eye candy. These are just some of the screenshots I snap out of the movie.








2. FAVE TV SERIES:
New Girl Season 4 is currently on loop in my VLC player. I love love love Jess and Ryan! I wish they had longer relationship but whatever. I love them.


3. I have finally let Twitter go. No more tweeting for me. Facebook, I still keep for business and communication purposes but I am not staying on it more than a minute. I just open it. See some messages. Check notifs and that's it.

4. Had the chance to see some of my old college friends.


5. Currently reading: Self-Matters by Philip Mc Graw

6. Emotionally destashed my accessories, nail polishes, bags, shoes, classcards etc. I feel so much lighter throwing them away but I have to admit I feel lonely thinking about them. Emotional attachment at its finest. (Blogpost coming up).




7. Nail Polish: Sally Hansen Triple Shine Statemint. (Review coming up.)


8. Currently obsessed with Toy collectibles. Toy Unboxing Videos in Youtube and window shopping at Toy Kingdom. For some reason, I found new adoration with fashems, monster high dolls, lalaloopsies, shopkins, tsum tsums, pop figurines, my little ponys.

Well, that's all for now.
BTW, I'm posting this on Chinese New Year so Kong Hei Fat Choi!!! (sorry for any misspelling)

SOo, till next time!
BYE!

AT LEAST I CAN STILL SEE: Living Life through Amblyopia

All my life, people thought I am just banlag (squint) or someone who has a scar on her right eye. What some people do not know exactly is that I am almost blind. After thousands of eye tests to different ophthalmologists and optometrists, mine is a rare condition called Amblyopia (also known as lazy eye) coupled with color-blindness. Let us first start with my right eye. If you will look closely into my cornea, it has this white scar that originated by birth. If I will only use my right eye and let my left eye be closed, I will see everything in blur. Because of an inborn scar, there is a small white cast blocking my right eye, I cannot see the details of an image. I only see a vision, a blur, a shape. For example, if there is a calendar in front of me, looking only through my right eye, I would only see a white rectangle with dots and some lines. Imagine watching TV with white sheer cloth in front of your eyes-- that's the perspective of my right eye. God must have pi...

Revlon Color Lustrous Lip Gloss in Gold Frost

Ever since I started working, I have been wearing lipsticks all the time and neglecting the joys a lipgloss can do. I don't know if it's the age or maybe I have worn a lot of gloss when I was on my teens that I feel lipstick is  for my twenties. But, when I saw Revlon Color Lustrous lipgloss, I cant help but fall in love once again with lip glosses.  Why do I love this gloss? Let me count the ways.. 1. The shade is a beautiful golden nude that has a bit of shimmer, not glitters, that creates a lovely shine to the lips.  2. It glides on smoothly and is not sticky to wear. 3. Opacity is just right, not too opaque, not too sheer.  I got this on sale so the price is way lower than usual, I got this for only P200 (such a steal right?)\The sales assistant told me that Revlon booths placed in the middle of the malls have more sale items compared to counters located inside the department stores. So, if you are looki...

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 ...

Curly Find: Dove Nourishing Curls Whipped Cream Mousse

Living in a country where straight hair rules, finding a good styling product for the curly hair is such a pain in the ey-ess-ess. For the past few months, I've been experimenting on different hair products, mixing and jumbling all sorts of creams, mousse, gels, etc etc. Product after product, layers after layers.  I honestly sometimes feel like going back to straight hair is way easier and economical, than spending so much money on hair products, but then I do love my current buhahag hairstyle- I feel some sense of uniqueness and personality with this kind of hair- so I think I wold just go on with this journey and just enjoy every part of it. So, today, I thought I would share my experience with this Dove Nourishing Curls Whipped Cream Mousse.  This is by far, my favorite mousse cream for my curly hair. Let me tell you some of my opinions regarding this product.  1. SMELL - Oh. Goodness. I love the smell of this one right out of the can. This is...

My Birthday Shenanigans : ABS-CBN Tour and ASAP Live

August is my birthday month so instead of doing my usual "Pieces of My Month" series, I decided to make it more special by doing series of posts called "My Birthday Shenanigans." I know that this has been an overdue post as we are already running through "BER" months, but as I have said before, it is better to post late than never. Anyways, one of the major things I did during my birthday was to take a tour around ABS-CBN studio.  ABS-CBN is the largest broadcasting network in the Philippines as far as I know. So, if you are living in the Philippines, there is no way you do not know what ABS-CBN  is. It has produced tons of television shows, entertainers, artists, broadcasters, movies, etc. My brother and my sister-in-law (who was also celebrating her birthday that day) were kind enough to invite me to join them in seeing the "behind the scenes" of TV production.  OUTFIT OF THE DAY: White Blouse Aztec Skirt Black Shoes Messeng...
