School is Cool


Hey, dolls! Guess who's back once again? So after months of intense procrastination, I have finally decided to give blogging another go. 
A lot has happened since my last post, and by a lot, I mean A LOT! I am now in a city that I had no freaking idea I would end up in and currently working through tremendous changes in my long term plans. 
Last year, I was working on a Masters degree that wasn't really my cup of tea. Now, I have finally gotten myself into something I have always loved. Law school. Well not really law school per se, but the study of law. Law has always fascinated me. I have always enjoyed being right. Who doesn't?
Anyway, getting into one of the top universities in my country is just another plus. 
When I took up the law school entrance exam for The University of San Carlos, It was just to appease my parents. I wasn't expecting to get a good result, but God works in mysterious ways and I would like to believe that this is the path he wants me to walk.
I have so much to share with you guys. I hope you stay around to listen to all the crap that's marinating in my head.
Anyway, gotta get back to digesting cases. Talk to you tomorrow and have a pleasant day ahead.

Lately according to my phone, I'm back obsessively painting my nails over & over again, enjoyed my last few dates with Dave before he left for Cebu, playing too much poker, hoarding art stuffs for my DIYs (blogging about this very soon), got hooked with 1D, started using my fav moleskine journal, been on our annual family trip (blogging about this too), and lastly I finally got my fav watch! :D

How about you loves? How have you been recently?
Cheers!

Manic October


Lovely day gorgeous readers! I know I have been pretty MIA lately, but I have a really convincing reason this time. I finally got a decent job, but juggling it along with my lethargic lifestyle and well... I guess school work is taking a toll on me. Here comes the "I love my work, but..." pathetic lamentation.  

I actually do like my job (even if it's boring as hell and is constantly triggering my migraine) and my boss is as chill as a pill. There's just one little bitch I mean hitch, I have this coworker who is driving me bonkers! I just want to punch her in the throat for being so cocky and thinking that she could get away with exploiting her coworkers (namely me). I'm trying really hard not to be the girl who gets off by being a caustic bitch towards other girls. I mean, before that she-devil came into my life I was as cool as a cucumber! I was enjoying a mellow life without feeling any hostility towards the general population of society (except for that rude saleslady at the grocery store). However, I have no other choice but to suck it up and try really hard not to mutilate her with my bare hands.

On a lighter note, HALLOWEEN IS SO FUCKING CLOSE! I love halloween with passion and those discounted chocolates and candies after the celebration (don't judge me!). Watching horror reruns on television used to be my favorite past time, fortunately or unfortunately (however you wanna see your glass of water) I've been avoiding the television like a plague for almost 3 years now. No, I'm not acting like a self-righteous asshole who thinks watching too much TV is bad (even if it is). As a matter of fact I have no logical explanation why I'm acting this way, seeing that I have turned into a warmonger who is fanatical about football (GO SAINTS!).

Anyway, I was thinking that a halloween themed DIY would be a great way to celebrate my favorite holiday. So you guys better keep on checking my blog for it (no pressure there). Enjoy your semestral break guys coz in a blink of an eye it will be over, you wont even notice it. Though, if you're like me who lives a very boring and monotonous life, worry not because we wont even feel any difference. Cheers!

Mirthful September


I love September! It's the beginning of my very own absurd season long advent calendar, with birthday celebrations piling on my planner, book release from favorite authors, family trips, and of course new seasons for:
  • Big Bang theory (S07), 
  • How I Met Your Mother (S09), 
  • and Family Guy (S12). 
The -BER season is now here along with the chilly weather which is very welcome, since it means I could wear my sweaters more often now. This also means that the year 2013 is nearly over and holiday feasts are about to commence! Prepare your fat gurrrl pants (or if you prefer death traps exercise routines) because colossal amounts of calories are coming!!!

Anyway while I was sifting through my files, I have unearthed a couple of tutorials and recipes that I made months ago but unfortunately forgot to upload. So hold on tight, because they are coming for you! Enjoy September! :*

Lately according to my phone, I've been cuddling the coziest comforter, honing my green thumb while taking up my masters degree, obsessing with my homemade mashed potatoes, and totes in love with my soccer jersey and cat eye sunnies. Nothing out of the ordinary really. How bout you guys, care to share? :)


*this could be a weekly thing from now on ;)

Beach Bumming with the Troop


All I wanted to do yesterday was to wallow in misery since 
a.) I didn't do my SOCIO 223 papers
b.) I was way behind my job and getting fired is not an option
c.) Woke up in the middle of a muthafuckin blackout
and last but not the least; 
d.) I woke up really late, ergo I was absent.

See how good I am at managing my time? It's because I lack motivation... well that's what I keep on telling myself, which I know is a big fat lie. The truth is, I am just lazy. Not the "I'll do this later lazy", but the "Maybe if I keep on ignoring it, it will do itself lazy". 

I was in a very foul mood when I woke up. So when Dave called to tell me that they were going on a trip to the beach and that I was invited, I immediately said no which led to a heated conversation (coz Dave just can't keep his trap shut). Well long story short, Dave finally convinced me to tag along.


We went to the local beach near the city. It isn't anywhere near fancy, but it has its own appeal. Every time I get to visit this beach, I wait for twilight and just paddle in the water idly while facing the cottages. The view is just stunning! It makes me feel like as if I was inside in one of my books.


I wanted to get some work done, therefore swimming wasn't really in my agenda. I didn't bring any extra clothes and boy, was I so wrong... I ended up using Dave's clothes and please don't ask me about my undergarments. 

Anyway, here are some of the photos from yesterday...

sniff... sniff...

apoy sa dagat
lookin' classy here i dare say
A disturbing photo of dave
I am surrounded with very gullible people. Might as well take advantage. Hahaha


Egotistic photos of me...







Now, that was how I spent my day. Spontaneous trips are just the bomb.
Tell me about yours!

*edit* forgot to add this, hahaha the boys roughhousing.

The Good Things


Last year was the craziest roller coaster ride life has given me. The experiences 2012 gave me were both delightful and unpleasant, nonetheless, I value the lessons that I've learned and the memories that I shall keep with me until hell freezes over. This year, I plan to make it more special by appreciating the little things that life drops on my lap and opening myself more to possibilities. BTW, kudos to all of us for surviving the apocalypse and together we shall wait for another one. 
Hahaha CHEERS!
