You're Seeing Double

People, people look alive! I'm back in town!!

I had one of the most amazing weekends ever and I

can't wait to share with you guys what happened during

my visit to the province that was most affected by last January's

terrible earthquake and landslide. It was such an eye-opener.

But more on that later.

 Right now I just wanna have some proper R&R

And by proper R&R, I mean playing dress up and stealing your mother's pearls!

Wanted to try on this men's denim shirt and see if I looked better being

girly or being all boyish. #Neighborhoodies

 This is my 90s action movie star pose.

I got a face that's just asking to be punched.

 I don't know. I'm confused. Do I look better as

a Manly-Girl or a Girly-Boy?

Life's greatest problems.. *sigh*

 

I always throw my hands in that Star Trek sign

whenever I'm confused. Don't judge me.

That's how I roll.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

It was mi mama's birthday yesterday so we decided to

go out and have lunch at this restaurant my neighbor owns.

EVOO is what it's called. It stands for Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

The place was really cool. Not too shabby for a guy who's only 21!

As much as I wanted this post to be about the food, sadly I wasn't

able to get good food pics since we chowed down as soon as our orders

arrived. Our bad! So let me just settle for an outfit post instead! haha

 This is what I usually wear during Sunday Mass.

It's either a skirt or a dress. I used to hate it when my mother made

my sister and I wear skirts while the other girls got to wear pants. Made

me feel really old-fashioned. Which was not how I wanted to dress at that time.

But I really do appreciate how my mother wanted us to look proper and

lady-like. It was really all about respect.

 Chose this wall as my backdrop because this is what I call ART.

Or rather the only art I am capable of doing. haha! But really, the wall spoke

to me of something deeper than just shooing people off who were not

members of this so called HGS club/society. It spoke to me of authority

and the truth of social hierarchy and how white paint looks really

good on a gray background and I'm rambling and just realized that

I don't know jack shit about art. It's time to ignore the crazy girl.

 So here's a picture of me looking like I'm really enjoying

the scorching summer heat and the wind in my hair.....

 And another one of me looking pretty clueless or stoned. Your choice.

 After lunch, we rushed off to our new favorite cupcake place, Sweet Little Things.

It was funny how I looked like the cupcake I ate. #Neigborhoodies

And an obligatory shot of the B-day girl herself posing with her

favorite Lemon Poppy Seed Cupcake!!!

She would kill me if she sees this picture of how I freely decided

to add a tiara on her head. Thank God she's got a great sense of humor? hahaha!

But hey, she's the Birthday girl and a great mom so I say the woman deserves to feel like 

Princess Di for a day with a cupcake and a glimmering tiara.

 

Happy Candles & Cakes Day, Mama!!! Kiss Kiss Hug Hug xxoo

I Got A Pair Of Brand New Roller Skates

There once was a girl who begged her mother

to buy her roller skates at a secondhand shop

because she thought it would be cool and maybe

she could form an all-girl roller derby team like in

that Ellen Paige and Drew Barrymore movie, Whip It!

She loved the skates so much that as soon as she got

them, she gave them one big hug..

(I'm sorry. I'm tryin' to give a good heartfelt story about

skates here so a hug is obligatory.)

Clearly this girl's got way too much free time in her hands

that she pushed and  pulled as hard as she can all day long (possible exaggeration)

 until she got her chubby feet inside the darn skates. Look, she tries so hard that it looks like

she's about to sneeze or have an orgasm of some sort.

 So she finally got them on and took 'em for a spin....

You know... To paint the town red or something like that..

Wobbly roller-skating virgin legs + a flight of stairs...

Well, you get the picture. It wasn't pretty.

 She got a big booboo on her elbow afterwards.

Okay, I lie. I got that bloody scratch 3 hours before

while I was longboarding in a dark abandoned alley.

Made me feel pretty bad ass until I realized it's going

to leave an ugly scar on my elbow. :(

The girl decided that she needed more time to learn the

ways of the great roller-skating masters.

So she opted to be zen and do yoga instead.

This kind of reminds me of the Wicked Witch of The West from

The Wizard of Oz when she got squished like a bug by that house..

I'm hungry and making this post reminds me a of song......

I need to get a life... Or maybe do yoga for real...

Fluorescent Adolescent

Just realized how awkward I look when I don't know how to pose for pictures. But that won't stop me from being ultra excited for March since I'll be turning the big 2-0 this month!!! Oho oho oho.. This probably means I'll have to say goodbye to being a teenage vixen (more like creeper) but I can't say I'm too sullen. I'm actually quite excited for my WILD 20's! Hopefully it'll be one big cabaret show with random song and dance numbers. Just like how I imagined it in my egg-shaped head :)

Does this mean more outfit posts? :) watch and see....

Comfort In Your Strangeness

Saw this maxi skirt while I was going (more like scavenging) through thrift stores around the city. I would have preferred it to be all black but I think the bronze-colored flower details adds to its vintage-y charm (smelled real vintage-y too, if you know what I mean. haha!)

Now watch me fly and do a twirl in a creepy back lot! It's awesome how I look headless.

I'm glad I still look ultra FASHYON a second before falling on the rocks while trying to walk barefoot in this darn long skirt. (patting myself on the back) #Neighborhoodies

I wonder if you think me strange for walking around barefoot in creepy backyards and dressing like a witch to welcome the month of love.

But I like the strange. I find comfort in it...

How To Be Lovely

Look at that happy, chubby face. Nom nom nom nom nom...... Anyhoo, I finally got to actually cleaning my room today after 3 years. While I was rummaging through my stuff and segregating what to keep and things to throw away, I had a lot of WTF moments. Who the heck keeps ping pong balls, grocery plastics, and a gazillion band aids??? Sadly, moi :(  I IS ASHAMED :'(

I am a Class A fvckin hoarder. But I promise to change my shameful hoarding ways and start cleaning my room every week now and throw stuff I don't really use (a painful process for me). I read somewhere that a clean space invites good and positive vibes to come into your life. Also helps to clear your head.

I'm off to finish cleaning up but I'm leaving you guys with one of my fail-proof happy songs from the movie Funny Face. I think every girl should hear this song. It's like a step-by-step guide on the secrets of HOW TO BE LOVELY.....

Be lovely with me?

It's Not Her Face The Boys Want To See

A late post, but I just wanted to share my Christmas Eve outfit with everyone. It's always been tradition for me and my family to look our best to celebrate Christmas. I know the pictures are really blurry but it's only because ze brother sucks at taking picsies and I haven't really gotten friendly with the camera settings all that well yet. But I quite like how the pictures turned out. At least you get an idea of what I wore. I must remind myself to take a quick picture of this outfit during daytime where there's actual day light.. haha!

I don't know why I much prefer pictures of me being blurry. I guess I like the vagueness of it all. Or the feeling it gives that not much makes sense. It's dramatic and sometimes creepy. Two words that perfectly describe me! YEEYY!

So while I'm off doing my creepy dance, here's a random picture of my brother taking his pants off in the garden.. VIVA LA NUDITY!!!

Do you wanna be a creepy streaker in the garden, too? I promise I'll take your picture :)

Patches and Peaches

Modeled for a friend for her online shoppe on Facebook. This is just one of the sexy outfits she had me try on. Go check out Patches & Peaches and buy buy buy!!!!!

Leaving you with one of my favorite songs from Jet.

So tell me, are you gonna be my girl?

This Girl Needs A Job.. Pronto!

So there I was sitting all by myself in The Sports Warehouse at I.T. Park, waiting for my sister while she tried on swimsuits, staring at my own reflection in the mirror. Man, did I look bored as fvck.. That's when I thought I needed to do something useful with my life. A hobby, maybe? A sport? A job? Anything!!! I just need to do something that'll make me get off my lazy ass and be a productive citizen of this country. Wow. Who knew sitting in a sports store can really make you think deep about your life and the future. I should do it more often :) Maybe they'd even offer me a job at that store.. Haha!

So enjoy the rare sight of my chubby face on this blog. While I indulge in my camwhoring moments in random dressing rooms...

Will you give a desperate girl a job? xo
