Here’s a little secret from reality I discovered today: Camera flash makes your hair sparkle and shine. Not hair colors. Or gentle shampoo wash. Or silkening conditioners. Or you know whatnot. LOL. And so, don’t be fooled by these photographs that show what appears to be me with a shiny lustrous hair. It’s less beautiful in real life, really. XD (And I contradict myself a lot of times.)
I’m apparently on a cozy chair at work on such a beautiful rainy day, and I believe it would be a total miss to not share my newly acid-soaked hair to you dear reader in my hyperbolic hopes and dreams blog. Also, I’m doing this to take a breather because of my arriving in late to work at about 6 and a half hours ago. Because of stupid timeless traffic in Metro Manila and sleep deprivation and you know what else is. XD
Anyway, as previously mentioned here, I will color my hair again to hide its heinously growing black roots. The outcome I can say is A-okay, thanks again to MONDES hair coloring system. :]
On another note: Please do not mind the messy~ness of my room in these photos. They are scheduled for a clean-up which will happen…uh, anytime soon. XD
And to cope up with the loss of my hairbrush last week, I’m currently sporting a Japanese big bun hairstyle for my everyday look — a huge thick chignon. Great for those of you with the wildest hairs around; you can wrap it up into a messy bun and voila. Great hair.
And the secret — a FAKE hair ponytail!!:
Thanks to this video by Tricia Gosingtian herself, I learned something I likely didn’t know. 
Check out the vid for instructions. I’m too lazy to put it in my blog HAHAH.
Wrap and roll. Again, check out this video to learn how to do your hair like this.

I’ve been dead tired these past few weeks because of my dancing for the upcoming 3rd Slimmer’s World Aerodance Fusion Competition. Because of that, my back has been all sore and numb that I hardly ever get any decent sleep at night, even more so to catch-up important convos with close people. It just totally reeks to not have all the time in the world — I just wish there was MORE. 
Rehearsals yesterday finished nearly midnight already that when I got home, there was only a few hours left of sleep for me before I got awakened with my Father calling my name. My dad’s a human alarm clock FTW. Which by the way sucks because at 22 you’re not supposed to let your parents call your name to wake you up in the morning. But yeah.
I need to FIX my life ASAP and bring back its color. Bring back its shine. And bring back its luster.
..like how I fixed and recolored my hair.

If I’m not colorblind, my natural hair color is dark brown, so I refuse to believe I’m a redhead. I would want to be called, like, a “strawberry blondie” — or some more decent name near to that because it feels a little cuter than “an exotic woman with a fiery temper”, as defined by Urbandictionary. LOL. But apparently my natural roots are starting to show up (having my hair colored 3 months ago) that it won’t let me escape this hair coloring problem I have had for years; as much as I love hair color, I detest all its devilish forms and impact on my long thin Filipina hair. Right now it’s bloody-dry and a little wrecked from my almost monthly rich soaking of peroxide on them that every time the dyed color start to strip off, I somehow get pressed to recolor to hide the bad shade out. But then again, nonetheless, I seem to always love the result each time I do so. And tend to forget it had layers of unhealthy, hair-melting substances. Thus, I will recolor my hair again tonight. Please pray for its soul.
After all, who wouldn’t want her hair jazzed up with the next decade’s bombshell color?
remember this from my last outdoor photoshoot?
AND P.S. thank you to MONDES hair coloring system! Your shades are LOVEE. <3

Hey guys, who has FORMSPRING? Let’s ask each other questions, yes?
I’m less sure as to how many of you would be interested to do so, but I would love me some questions/comments from you so let’s get in touch!
On a side note: THANKYOU to those of you who have so many little nice things to say. Those phrases of kindness meant a lot to me! Hopefully, each one of you was entirely honest about it. :]

People have always liked being complimented but here’s a little secret from me: sometimes, I find it hard to accept it. Sure it makes my day, but it’s really difficult to know if I can trust people with their words. I mean, it makes me wonder if the other person only say nice things to you because they want something from you in return, or wants to make bola lang, or that you know.. they just want to get into your pants, LOL.
When someone likes your profile picture over Facebook, what do you feel?
When someone compliments you, do you accept his wonderful words?
When someone tells you how pretty or handsome you are, does it fill your heart with some kind of awesome spark?
OF COURSE it does!
But usually for me, Id’ just just smile or squirm awkwardly, say thank you in a quick way as possible, or type this , or compliment that person back in return.
I don’t know. I know in myself I’m good somehow but something in my mind holds me back and whispers, “Sid, you don’t deserve that positive feedback.”
It sucks that I don’t believe in myself sometimes. It sucks that I feel someone’s misguided and lying in front of my face or just feeling sorry for me. I’ve always thought there’s probably a bad thing about accepting compliments…
BUT despite it all. I’m learning to accept and outgrow this fear of accepting a sweet bunch of words that remind us how kickass awesome we are somehow as a person.
That’s why thank you, thankyou dear readers nonetheless.. for the sweet compliments and for appreciating my ideas! All those words truly madly make my heart pound a million times I can die any minute. Some of you have always been nice to me.. and even if a small number of you aren’t (hehs).. still, THANK YOU.
I’m glad to somehow inspired you in my own ways.
You don’t know how exhilarating it can be to share so little information .. and yet receive sooo much in return.
You guys give me such nice energy that makes me calm and playful at the same time.
You keep me going.
You keep me strong.
You keep me going.
You keep me strong.
)
So come here little flatterer, let me squash you.
P.S. My roots are starting to show up, have you noticed? THIS PICTURE IS UNEDITED! XD Will make a blog post about my hair and picking the perfect hair color soon so keep checking back in.

So I was in the middle of my grind when my super corporate world mommy Carmela shared this link to me. How could it be unknown to me since my first arrival at Urbandictionary.com!
It defines people’s names now. And it’s funny because my name has the most perfect description of all right there. Which by the way isn’t so human/me.
Lying betch. HAHAH.
But I do love Carmela’s description of her name, it very very much describes her:
**
That’s what I love about writing. People by the power of words can protrude things beyond it’s normal definition. But more often than not, it’s good description, which we like.
And since everybody gets into an evil plan when things can be a little taken for granted, I now plan to write a devilish description about my ex, and frenemies by signing up on the site. *wicked laugh*
‘course that was a joke, silly.
I will write a description about this mild person I know, with cute and endearing qualities, with a smile like the sun, and a heart like a rainbow. And of course, to ALL the good-natured friends that I know!

How about you? Have you ever looked up your name on UrbanDictionary.com?
Try yours and tell me what you’ve found

I would totally freak out if a panda were to hug my leg, but this picture broke my heart so badly, I may just allow it to hug my leg for longer than 20 seconds.
