RUNAWAY.


This video is just amazing.
My favourite part was the ballerina part. I love the costume of the girl. I was like...how the hell did they do that?!

The running scene was amazing as well, Kanye was hot there! :))
You guys should watch it because I watched it and I liked it and I know you guys will like it too... it's a very inspiring vid, after seeing it I wanted to make my own beats using a drum machine. Sadly, drum machines are expensive. It would take some time for me to get one but I've been wanting one since like, HIGHSCHOOL! So, moost def, if I have cash, I'd buy myself one. :D

My trip to Singapore. PART 1


So last Monday was my flight for Singapore but since our flight was still at 8pm we decided to check out Resorts World first. We ate at this place that had awesome/funny chairs outside. :)) I wanted to sit on it but my family went inside where the chairs were "normal". :))



I loved the ceiling because it had different Italian shiznits. I got this coz it was the only thing I knew from the words on the ceiling. :))


We just ate some pizza and ordered some drinks. After that I saw my friend Barts and introduced her to my tita. We had to go to the airport after eating at Resorts World.



This is where I sat while we waited for the plane to arrive. We were early because my ninang wanted to arrive early. Apparently, it's her thing. SHE WAKES UP SO EFFIN EARLY!



While waiting, I ate this. It's Kit-kat but it's flavor is cookies and cream! YEAH-UH! :)) Major sugar rush after that. Thank goodness we had water.


My seat in the plane. EMERGENCY EXIT :> BEST PLACE COZ THERE'S AWESOME SPACE. :))


View from outside.



Oh, we're flyin.



Touchdownnnnn, Singapore!


Me, rummaging through my things.


My brother and I slept late planning and mapping and checking out the must-see places. :))

You Got My Heart On A Headlock.

I love music as much as I love clothes and dressing up, so here's another music post!



The Feeling!

I love this song, heard this from the Burberry show SPRING 2011 RTW. :D



Listen to it coz I love it and I know you guys will too!

What I Wore For My Impromptu Speech.


I wore this to school yesterday for my impromptu speech. I was freakin out upto the very end and my palms were sweating non-stop! It was crazy but my friends told me I did good. So, yeah, that's cool. I chilled that night to give myself a "pat on the back" for what I did in ORALCOM.


I played a bit with Adobe Lightroom...I striked a pose! :)))) This is for you Mariah!
(MY LEGS ARE HIDEOUS!)




I wore a Zara blazer, Thrifted shirt (it looks Fred Perry-ish, no?), Zara skirt and espadrilles from Pagsanjan Laguna.

HAIR ALERT!







OK. I KNOW I POSTED THIS LAST TIME BUT I JUST WANNA SAY THAT IN EVERY ANGLE OF THIS SONG THAT HAS ROBYN IN IT...IS MY NEW "HAIR".

I mean...I LOVE HER HAIR SO IMMA TRY AND COPY IT. =))

Me and My Silly Phases.





OHMYGOD. I JUST DIED! I LOVED HER SONG 'DANCING ON MY OWN' AND IT WAS ON REPEAT IN MY CELLPHONE (COZ SOME CRAZY BITCH STOLE MY IPHONE, YEAH, DEEP DOWN I'M PISSED) FOR DAYS BUT IN THIS VIDEO I REALIZED SHE COULD BE LIKE ONE OF MY "IDOLS" ALREADY. =))))) (I SEE ANOTHER "PHASE" COMING ON!)

You see, in my life(OMG DRAMA!), I've had these things I call "phases" and everytime I get these "phases" I do things or rather try to be "in the zone" and try as hard as I can to "be" like the people I "idolize". Don't get me wrong, I'm not some crazy b*tch stalker fan. I just try to dress up like them, that's all, nothing serious. =)))

Let me recall some of these phases....I've had:

The Karen O Phase.

There was a moment that she had a badass hair where she wore it so awesomely, it was long at the back and KIND OF short in the front....gets? :)) I WANTED ONE BUT APPARENTLY I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH GUTS BACK THEN. :(


The Horrors phase.

I still studied in a Catholic all-girls school, so no, I didn't wear eyeliners back then but I wanted to but it wasn't allowed. But yes, every weekend, I would wear black and white combination with matching pointy black boots!!! =))) I would also wear a black ribbon on my neck back then! =)) I was that dedicated. :> TO BE HONEST THOUGH, I MISS THE OLD THE HORRORS. I want them back :( Oh, and I had a crush on Rhyss Webb. =))) That guy on the right with the beret! :> He's hot when he's on stage. :)))


and here's my all time favourite...

The Kills Phase.

I fell in love with them......when Gossip Girl played them on the final episode of the first season!!! (I think) And I knew I just had to google what song it was. :))) AND SOO I DID and found them :)) OH TECHNOLOGY, LALALAAAA.

I fell in love with their chemistry and how they face each other when they play gigs. It was the first time that I've seen that "type of showmanship" (?) IF THAT EVEN MAKES SENSE!?!?!!! =))) Anyhoo, I love the grungy, dirty, garage rock feel to their songs and the rusty guitar sounds and cool beats that their drum machine gives and so up until now, they're still number 1 on my list when people ask me what my fave band is.

I loved and "idolized" Alison Mosshart and tried to dress up like her. When I went to Hong Kong for the first time, I had my The Kills Phase on and I brought with me my Nylon issue of London Calling that featured them on the cover! (It was also my very first Nylon issue:> )

I scoured the Hong Kong streets(I forgot where) and looked for boots that would resemble Alison's and Jamie's but I couldn't find one because the season was summer. So they weren't selling boots. :( SAD. Surprisingly, I found one back here in Manila. It was from Janilyn! =))))
I bought a gold one and a black one then.


So now I think the new Phase would be a Robyn phase. :))

PS. " " = hand gesture quoting, gets? :))) Omg, I don't know how to explain it. I will just pretend you get it. :))

Let's Go Banana with Anna!

DID YOU JUST SEE MY FAILED ATTEMPT IN MAKING A STATEMENT THERE?! =))) SHITS SO LAME. ANYHOO, everyone meet Anna dello Russo! She's sooo badass I don't know how to explain it!

She's like THE ULTIMATE CHICK OUT THERE EVAR!!! :)) NO ONE BEATS ANNA DELLO RUSSO. Ugh. I just love this herrrr!!! So for you to understand why I love her...IMMA LET YOU WATCH THIS THEN YOU'LL KNOW WHY I LOVE HERRR. :))


I Love You, Man.


This Saturday, I watched I Love You, Man on HBO. It was actually a funny movie! All in all though, it was a good movie to kill time with. Jason Segel, as usual, was cool and funny but what got me to appreciate the movie more was the soundtrack behind it. As they did say, sound composes half of what we see or...something like that...yeahhhh.. :|

Anyhoo, here are some vids that I searched that I liked from the soundtrack list of the movie:

1.) RUSH- Tom Sawyer

THEY ARE AMAZING BTW! THE DRUMMER IS LIKE..WHUUTTTT. =)) The synths are just like..I'm on drugs or somethin! :))) The "studio" version is much better coz you see them playing awesomely. "SLAPPIN THE BASS, MAN!" :)) You'll get me if you watch the movie;)



2.) THE BLACK KEYS- Set You Free

This one, kind of reminds me of The Dead Weather. Maybe it's coz of the sound of the guitar...I dunno. But check em out as well coz I like it too.


3.) RUSH- Limelight

Apparently, I am now a fan of Rush. =))) This one is the one from the movie, they're very funny here and I feel sorry for Zooey but it was bound to happen. =)) BROMANCE!



4.) MATT COSTA- Mr. Pitiful

This one I like because of the beat :D The video is cute as well...


5.) THE DONNAS- Dancing with Myself

Who could say no to this song!? Billy Idol's vid though is weird coz there's zombies and stuff...and he's just dancing with himself. :)) And then there's Artie from Glee dancin' with his wheel chair on!!! :)) That was nice.



6.) PAUL RUDD AND JASON SEGEL- Limelight

OMG. I LOVED IT WHEN THEY DID THIS IN THE MOVIE!!! GALINNNGG!!! :)))



A BONUS FOR YOU ALL.... =)))))



I'M SLAPPIN DA BEEAAASSSEE, MON!!! =)) HYSTERICCAALL!

All of these I got in youtube and google for the photo.

A Birthday and a Bazaar.

This is what I wore for my friend's 18th birthday dinner bash.

The venue for the bdaybash was in Chili's Greenhills and lucky for me it was close to my place. I was in no hurry to leave and it wasn't a formal dinner so two thumbs up on that!

I went to meet up with a friend in Ronac Art Center (or something like that) for the "First Dibs" bazaar. The stuffs there were cool but they were a bit too overpriced for me. A necklace that has 2 dice on 'em worth 150 pesos is a little too much, no? CHEESUS, you can see those dice in Divisoria for half the price less! (SEE WHAT I JUST DID THERE? I MADE A GLEE REFERENCE, HA! MLIA) (Oh, MLIA stands for My Life Is Average, I just found out about that today, HAHA!)


ANYHOO, the bazaar was weird because I was there all alone and waited for a FRIEND to arrive in what took like a gazillion years! (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!) BUT, I still love you! =)))) The party went well and I missed my friends so all was good. I must say my Fajita Trio in Chili's was AMAZING because the MEAT WAS SUPER SOFT THAT IN ONE CHEW...IT PARTS! =)) (DID YOU JUST GET MY DESCRIPTION?!?) That's how awesome it was! Oh, did I mention that it was worth like 650-ish pesos? :> =))

I am wearing a Dorothy Perkins denim shirt, Yvonne's(THIS IS THE NAME OF THE STORE, FYI.) leggings, Lacoste shoes, Forever 21 necklace and studded bracelet, and vintage Escada bag.

"Teddy boy-meets-punk masculinity"


So Balenciaga paraded these teddy boy-inspired outfits which was combined with punk masculinity, hence the creeper-ish shoes. I FELL IN LOVE. :))

So when I saw it, I was inspired and I just had to copy it. In my terms and style of course, since I could not afford any of these outfits. So I took a biker-ish vest, my brother's polo(where he got mad because I was wearing it), and since I don't have creepers like the ones above (I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ONE THO) I used my oxford shoes that I got in Cubao X.

I grabbed was and placed it on my hair to put a "punky" style into it.


Taadaaa!!! Here's what I got.



I miss my old long hair. I'm planning to grow my hair back and hopefully, I get awesome results. When I got my hair cut short, Freja then stopped keeping her hair short which is like...MAJOR FUCKERYY!!! =)) I only got my hair cut short because she did too, oh and yes, my undying love for Agyness Deyn since I was in high school.

I've got mad resepect for that chick, but yeah, I must admit I miss her old hair. But no matter what, I still love the girl! You can't hate chicks who got spunk like that! Anyhoo, time to go to school in a bit. BYE-YA!!! :)))

Asymmetrical.


I used Adobe Lightroom for these pics. I think, I'm gonna start using it from now on.


I love this shirt because it's cut is asymmetrical. I LOVEEEE ASYMMETRICAL cut...THINGS!!! :)) Notice my black thrift jacket? It's asymmetrical too!


Tee given by my mom so I don't know where she got it, Pants from Topshop, Shoes Converse.
