A July Rain Washed Photoshoot With Caturs And Nakimiso

July 17, 2010 at 3:07 pm · Filed under Dreams, People, Photography, Photoshoot

Into each life some rain must fall. Hardships are just the precipitation.

I have Cath and Nono to thank for these beautiful shots. It’s from my latest photoshoot with them last week. Despite the spitting rain and gusty winds, we managed to shoot about 2 sets of theme. Remember here and here? The flowers at Eco Park kind of remind me of spring which matched my golden copper hair. I did my own hair and makeup, everything was quite a rush but all in all, I had so much fun modeling for them. I’ve worn my favorite dress of course.

Truth be told, I would rather be behind the camera because it’s such a rewarding experience to be a photographer. It feeds your heart and soul. It’s like being a visual artist, really: you have a blank screen in front of you and you begin, and it’s something that carries you along. And I don’t know if artists around the world can ever stop producing masterpieces of their own. I truly believe photographers never retire, they just grow old. So who knows?? As long as this world we live in doesn’t give up on me, I won’t give up on my dream to become a photographer someday. When that time comes, I will of course seek Cath and Nono’s advice how to shoot amazing subjects. I will get there, I hope.

More Exciting Life loading ████████████99%

Enthusiasm is contagious. When something makes you smile in the day for no reason, it means something really bright is happening and it continues! Well NEWSFLASH. Something is! Just over a minute of reflecting earlier what would I press on the keys and now it came as a giant conclusion to me: I’m overcoming the odds and there’s this slew of happiness that’s shining with it. IDK, I want to say more but I’m at a loss for the right words now; perhaps I need more adjectives to describe what this feeling truly is, ‘coz being secretive has its disadvantages sometimes! like naoo XD

On a side note, all I know is that nothing makes life more exciting than to dream the impossible dream and do what’s possible now. Remember what I said here ? If I would count how many promises I had for this year, well there are just too many. Plus in times of frailty, I know I can’t always have all my friends around me, and have all the things I secretly love… but you know what? There’s this one thing that’s for sure I know — it’s that I can always count on my family and loved ones to be there and keep me strong. Of course we need to believe in our self to face life’s little challenges and be good at one thing than just be “okay” in everything. I hope I’m getting there. And I hope you are as well, dear reader.

Guess what I’m trying to say is.. it’s never too late to make the other half of this year a really really worthy one by catching up and becoming the better version of yourself. I just need that 1% more motivation to break my bad habits *Gooddd pls help me* (and please spare me DOTA bwahahaha.) and I’m ready to roll.

How about you? Are you ready to make your life more exciting to a 100%?

P.S.

speaking of DOTA, I will make a blog post about this tomorrow. Well, if my lazy fingers decide to get hyperactive again. nyahaha. XD

I’m excited for tomorrow’s dance rehearsal! So I will have to make a leave from work, because that’s how much I luuurve dancing! On a second thought, I forgot vacation leaves must be filed a day before at least! ftw!! I’m such a genius. T_T *insert more tears*

Attitude is like a box of crayons that color your world..

Here is a portrait of my mind.

You like it. It hits you. You don’t even have to read it.

In my imagination, I popped all kinds of pills, fell asleep, and went to dreamtown. In dreamtown, there were gold leaves and there were all sorts of awesome things coated in gold as well.. and it was all beautiful.. but it was also when I found them all pretty that my eyes began to get bored.. So I wished for a magical pencil.. one that spills out millions of colors, pulled out a magical paper, and then said to myself, “color my world..”

A memory of colors that touched me in some subtle way ..back in 2006.

dancing with life and growing up gracefully

June 20, 2010 at 4:21 pm · Filed under Dancing, Dreams, Happiness, life, Music, self

In retrospect..

Today, it STILL takes plenty of energy and stamina to get through my busy life. After a lo00ng day at work, would you believe I still need to have that extra muscle juice for the night to point my toes, kick my legs up high, and do a perfect double turn?

If you get into my head, you will also know that the closest thing I have for happiness next to my macbook is my dance shoes. Last night, I wore them again. XD

With my lushez

I’m twenty-something now. I am learning to face the music that life gives me in order to dance to my heart’s content. And even though I no longer party, literally, as hard as I did before, never had it happened once I did something that would mean I’m finished. Mark my word when I say STILL I am partying my hardest on this dance floor. Life’s dance floor. (where I am the music and God is my DJ )

“The longer you do not dance, the more you will forget.”

Keep on dancing!

Saving For A Rainy Day

June 15, 2010 at 3:05 am · Filed under Dreams, self

I’ll let you in on a little secret: I am bad with money. I have trouble saving and controlling my expenses aka I dwell on my guiltless splurge every moment waking so long as my wallet isn’t empty. It’s the kinda thing that’s A-OK when you’re, like, 16; it’s unacceptable, though, when you’re 22. XD

Yeeaah. My wallet is so restless it could die from heart-attack. Period.

So I have a new mantra, one that I debated in my thought bubble this morning it nearly explode: I will be good to money. Even if it’s the root of all evil. Even if I will not be the richest bitch I heinously claim myself to be when splurging on things without purpose and that I actually do not need. I will not be normaaaal. I need to. And I promise. So I can buy my dream camera and build my dream castle, and be the richest queen with no day job I envisioned myself to be.

Kdone.

4 Things that will empty my wallet:
