ALERT! Fashion Dilemma

Hey guys. What up? It's been a while since I last posted something. First, I'd like to thank ya'll for all the love that you've been showing. I may not know who you are but dropping by my page means a lot to me, so THANK YOU once more. :)

So yeah, what's up? I'm good, thank you.

Oookay, well not so good. I've been sick for like a week now. I don't know what the heck's wrong with me but yeah, I'm not doing so well when it comes to health issues but I'm trying my very best to be okay, like always think of happy thoughts all the time so nothing to worry about guys. :)


I like shopping. VERY MUCH, and ya'll know that right? It's like a "traditional" trait that I inherit from my Auntie who's now in Austria. Whenever we're tired or super stressed out, we'd like hit the nearest mall and just be there until out feet sore to death. BUT I'm not the type to like buy clothes, I'm pretty much happy with what's in my closet and to tell the truth; some of my clothes are like in bags now 'cause they all won't fit in! I need a bigger closet now! Sigh. Also, I'm more on shoes, bags, accessories (well? sometimes, i guess), electronics kinda person.


And it's not that I don't like clothes. It's like, it's rather harder to find the perfect set of clothes that I would like to wear. And can I say it that it's not a priority? Not like shoes, I just roam around and ta-da! I easily fall in love and find the right pair for me, it's like destiny. *eyes twinkle with hearts* HAHAHAHA!


Yeah, so much of that. The thing is, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO WEAR! *panic!* Yes! I really don't have a single idea what I want to wear this coming Saturday, it's for the company party by the way. Sigh. I've googled countless of celebrity fashion that I think would suit my flavor and style but then again, it's rather hard to find the perfect set that I like! :(


And the scary part of this too is the "DRESS TO IMPRESS" concept that they issued this year, I'm more like the "Dress to Depress" side of it. Haha! I really enjoy seeing my colleagues in their not so everyday (ah? yeah?) outfit. It's like a mini fashion show for me. I like watching fashion shows too 'cause of the models of course. Hahaha! But never did I pay much attention looking at clothes.

 I'm never REALLY the type to go glam, doll up, fashion conscious person. I'm pretty comfortable wearing nothing but short, baggy shirts and those kick ass sneakers for everywhere and anytime and probably every time too. But then again, I try to pretty it up once in a blue moon for super duper special events like debuts, weddings what else are special events? Haha! Yeah, something like that.

Yeah, I've googled some and so far these are the once that caught my attention. First is, Kristen Stewart the emotionless actress. Haha! I like her style, really. She wears things that are so comfortable not like other celebrities that are really flashy and stuff.


I want to do that sided braid but the problem is, I don't know how to do it. My sister who's a whole lot girly than me won't be home to go it for me. So, that's another problem to remember. The next is the jackets, it's really nice to sport something like white, gray and black but the thing is, they told us that the venue for the party isn't that cold so cross that on the list too. Next is the V-neck shirt, I think this is kinda've cute. Also, I was thinking of pairing it with on of my new kicks that I've bought last August I think but I couldn't find something similar as this. I remember that my late GranDaddy has one of this but it freaks me out having the thought that I'd wear one of his favorite shirts. Haha!

Up next if the "infamous" Kim Kardashian. This Kardashian babe is just like the typical rich Californian girl should be. It's "sky's the limit" kinda credit card. Oh! I so want to be her gal pal. Haha! As you know, she really is proud of her curves and would like to flash 'em everywhere and every time. So, paparazos be ready with your cams! LOL


Notice they are all in white? Yeah. I really like wearing white. It's looks really clean and elegant. Black too is nice but I don't want to be like some grinch, okay I know he's green but black isn't a Christmas color. So then again, I can't find a white blouse similar to this. The one I bought last week was red with a touch of white, same cut tho. SIGH. Fashion is soooo hard! I'm loosing hope. Haha!

So moving on. Couple of friends suggested to wear a dress. And I was like "You really serious about that?" Then again, I wear dresses if I feel like it and now's not that time. Also, I'll be attending some after party too, so I want to move freely that day, so I decided to be in jeans! And as for shoes? Ahhh..... I was suppose to be in doll shoes but I don't have time to look for one so I'll just see what I can wear.

Really! Fashion ain't my thing ever since. Good thing those celebs have their own stylists. Wish I have one of 'em too to help me with these matters. So yeah. I'm so open for suggestions guys. Help is needed! Hahaha!

Thank you for dropping by again. :)

Manga Review: Bakuman

Honestly, I'm not the type that reads a lot. I tend to easily get bored especially if the material is all nothing but texts and does not have a single picture at all. If I remember it correctly; when I was little, one of my Aunties always brings me home a book to read. Well, what can I say? I'm lazy. After looking at the first few pages I then start throwing it away and move on with TV. I grew up in front of the TV for all you know. But recently, I developed a habit of reading "manga". What are mangas again? Mangas are Japanese comic books.


So as ya'll know, I kinda got a little "addicted" in reading stuffs like these,  manly 'cause it runs my imagination to its wildest. Haha! I've read probably all sorts of manga genre. And of course, I too have certain favorites that I keep reading on and on and probably would suggest to read by other friends.

And it has been a two months since I finished reading Bakuman. I was just waiting for my friend at the mall so we can go to work together. I was really thinking of buying some magazines then so I dropped by at the bookstore. Seeing the price tags, I then came to a firm decision to read online instead, since I'm always in front of the computer and always online, and also (here comes the most important part) it doesn't cost me a single dime. Haha! And yes, I was browsing some comic books and saw a couple of my favorites like Bleach, Naruto, Nodame Cantabile, Soul Eater, Fairy Tail and a whole lot more. And I also saw Bakuman. So I jot it down on my phone so I won't forget it 'cause yes, I can easily forget petty things like these. :P

Bakuman Chapter 1 Manga Cover page, Mashiro Moritaka

Of course, like any other book readers do, I read the synopsis first before continue reading the whole thing. Yes, yes, yes, I'm kinda picky with manga too. Haha! As I read through it, it caught my attention, "Hmm?. This seems good. Might as well try it." I say. And it was well, not the best but it was nice.

 Basically the story moves around two Junior High or Middle School students who dreamed of being Mangakas (Comic Artist). The story was a-okay. It has the ups and downs, happiness and sadness, laughter and tears. It's like a drama series in cartoon/anime version of how difficult yet happy life of those manga artist have. 
DVD Cover Page. Mashiro Moritaka and Takagi Akito.

It was a really nice experience reading this book. I kinda learned from it too. It made me shed tears, it made me really curious and wanting me read more and more, made me think what's gonna happen next. It also made me laugh like crazy, 'cause some character are really hilarious. And it made me realize that I should value my friends more and more. It also made me believe in the power dreams. Hmmm? Dreams huh? I can't really say that I don't have dreams of my own but I think, I will just wait and see until I get to that point were I can say that "this is what I've dreamed for." I want things to be thrilling. I have my own ways of chasing my "unknown" dreams. *wink

Also there's a saying that I picked up while reading this and it got really stuck in my head. I'll just say it my way, It's really a wild world out there. You really don't know what will happen after every 5 seconds of your life. So you should at least have kick as qualities like Faith: that you believe that you can have it, Arrogance: think that you are better then all the others, Effort: work hard, its not like it's always given and Luck. Another one of my favorite is " Life is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're going to get." said in the movie Forest Gump. Sigh. It's really nice to be inspired by things that you never thought that would give you these kinds of feelings. :)

Do read Bakuman if you have extra time with you. :)

I know it's kinda mushy but what are your dream?

You have any manga that you want me to review or just read?

Thanks a bunch! :)

Amen.

Hey guys. Happy Feel Good Friday. :) Me and my friends just finished our mini fellowship meeting. And I really feel good about it. I'm no holy person but I'm pretty sure that I have a very big God backing me up all the time. I don't know much about the practices of faith but I do know how to communicate with Him. Some people "might" find it boring but I do love having such conversation. Actually this is the first time that we've done this here at the office, and I am hoping that it will last long.


So, today we had a conversation about the ups and downs of our lives. I'm pretty sure that most of us had these kind of things as well. As ya'll know, I'm the kinda person who can have the world with one go ever since I was a little girl. But little did you know I had hardships too. Hardships that I never thought that I would ever encounter in my life. One time, went my GDaddy died. I was only about 10 years old, I think? It so sudden. One Sunday we were out at the restaurant; having our favorite meal so happy and the next day he was rushed in the hospital and then the next day he was announced dead. Just imagine how heart breaking that moment for me. GDaddy was a lawyer so he can give everything that his family hoped for. I was the first grandchild so I was his favorite. I was treated like a princess when he was alive, I could have everything I laid eyes on in just a point of a finger. GDaddy influenced me so much that I wanted to be a lawyer like him too but all of those died when he left.

Uzumaki Mito, Young Tsunade and the First Hokage Senju Hashirama

A lot of things changed since then. I'm very sure God used GDaddy's death to open my eyes and change for the better. Fairy tales only do exist in books. But I'm really happy with everything now. It's all because I have a very dependable God that never left my side. And it just feels so good to build great friendship with the people you work with everyday, and to get to know more of who they are and to grow together in the aspect of faith.

I pray that ya'll have a wonderful life no matter what happens. Have a safe weekend guys.
And again, thanks for droppin by. :)

Ta-da!

What up guys? Today, I feel soooo super alive! Haha! I got triple surprises! And there is not place for being bored to death or being lazy for today. So late last night, as ya'll know I have some kind of deprive sleep disease called insomnia which keeps me up 'til dawn if I don't really fall asleep, so while waiting for the dream fairy to blow me some sleep dust, I went online; just the usual thing, exchanging emails with my cousin, looking some new videos on Youtube and checking new feeds on facebook.


Ya'll remember my super generous Aunt from my entry yesterday? The one that will hook me up with some Jeremy Scott American Flag Wings 2.0? Well, she just happens to ask me to visit her and the fam over there at Austria. I'm thrilled beyond my imaginations! REALLY! Haha! At first, I thought that it was just some kind of joke but it wasn't. I found real evidences at GMom's phone. Oh yes! I do read other people's conversations. Hohoho!! Okay so getting back to the story, she wanted us, me and GMom to go there by either summer there some what July-August or December. I said, I wanted to go there by winter season but I remembered the weather and GMom of course, she might get sick since it's so freezing to death there. Summer? Hmm? Isn't it ironic that I live in a super tropical country like the Philippines and go abroad just to experience what summer like is there? Hahaha! It's really hilarious!


The second surprise was, my baby boy and his band said that they will release a new repack album with 4 new songs in it! I gots to have it! Haha! I can't wait!

UxMishi from Kaichou-wa Maid-Sama

Eh-hem! Okay, that was a very selfish surprise. Just got carried away guys. Sorry. Haha! XD Okay for the last treat. I woke up kinda earlier than the usual, wondering what to blog about and in the middle of my air headness, GMom gave me this....


*wide eyes* GASP! Another surprise from my super generous Auntie! Really feeling the love all the way from Austria. I just proved not only to myself but the whole world, that no matter how much time had pass us by, and no matter how things were to changed for the better, I'd still be her baby. Aww! *teary eyes* Hohoho! Gosh. I feel so loved these days. Haha! See? Told ya, just be patient and love with just come without any notice or whatsoever. Sigh. Oh my. This feeling is so heady. :)

Just so you know guys: I'M NOT HIGH MAINTENANCE kind of person, it just so happened that there are people around me that can give me the world. Haha!

Enough with the bragging! XD What made your day guys? Tell me, I'd super love to know.
Again, big thanks to ya'll! :)

Love Beep

Boy: Hey.

Girl: What's up?

Boy: Baby, do you miss me?

Girl: Yes. :)

Boy: Ditto.

Girl: <3

Boy: 143 ;)


It's just so cute to have someone to text. Just to kill time or like talk about simply whatever or just to pass sweet nothings to someone or yeah simple just to connect. Texting is one of the hottest way in connecting nowadays. Back then was hand mail, phone calls, message beepers and what else? Just name it. But of course we are now in the newest era of communication where in every single person, rich or poor has a cell phone. Communication's one of the best way to understand one another. Texting can be anything as of now. It kinda helps you express like yes, anything. I like texting, honestly; well who doesn't right? I remember buying lots and lots of prepaid loads just to text people random stuff. But I already gave that up now. 'Cause I've been busy since I started working. But from time to time, If I'm free, I make sure that I reply tho.

Text: ..I know that it's been long since I last talked to you but I'm still thinking of you...

Just so you know guys, I've been out of the relationship drama from quite sometime now, so I can say that I'm pretty calm most of the time. Haha! And yes, I still get to receive those messages that makes you feel love. Just like that text above. I'm not particularly seeing someone nor committed to date someone but you know those people that are just there from time to time waiting for you. It's not to brag but I got quite some of those in the back of my pocket. But yeah, it really is nice to get messages like those.

Those are the kinds of text that catches you of guard and couldn't help but blush. Haha!

Love is  really nice feeling no matter how much you got hurt. I kinda "like" the person how sent me that text but I think, the timing isn't just right tho but it's cool, I'm in no rush. Just keeping it cool. :)

Yeah. This entry is kinda cheesy but worth sharing. :)

What's your best text message for that special someone of yours?

Thank you.

To be or Not to be?

What's up guys? Sigh. It's been sometime since I had another entry. It's not that I'm lazy in writing "again" (Haha!), it's just I'm kinda busy working on my manga. Haha! Yes, you heard me right; I'm working on my own manga. A manga artist is called Mangaka 漫画家 in Japanese.As I've said before, a manga is not, not a fruit! Sigh! It is a Japanese versions of Comic books. As been said, ever since I was little, I grew up in front of the T.V. I watch tons and tons of cartoons in my entire life. But I never once wanted to be a manga artist. 'Cause you know why? Well, let's just say that I really suck at drawing!

 I want to be a manga artist ever since I started reading manga too, like running 2 years, I'm not sure. It's just so amazing how can they (mangakas) keep the story even more interesting one chapter at a time. And how super duper the drawings can be?! Sigh. I feel said, only dreaming. Haha! But fear not! One of these days, just one of these days! I've be able to come up with my own, it may not be publish like a pro but I just want to have something interesting to brag. Harharhar!


The story that I'm making has some fusion. Fusion of Japanese base and English base. Okay, when I say English, I mean England like stories, during the time of Queen Victoria. Dude! Could you just imagine the characters wearing those kinds of clothes? Ohh! I get thrilled! Haha!

As I was saying, my story is a fusion of romance and battle manga. Actually a lot of manga that kind is very popular but I'm mixing some history in this one.

The story is being told by a somewhat high school student named, Nishimura Ryuujin. He's having dreams about some girl living in the time of yes, Queen Victoria. And he gets really annoyed because he has a feeling that he's somewhat responsibility for that girl. As the story goes on, if Ryuujin has some annoying pleasant dreams; the girl Kobayashi Miko is always having nightmares of her past life.


Yes guys, as much as possible I want to talk about the story but it's no where near complete so, I'll still work on it. As for the drawings, like I said I suck at it so I just asked some friends to draw it for me.

And yes! I have really high hopes for the drawing though I really suck at it big time. So guys, if you have any ideas, kindly share. Sigh. I am super excited to finish this!

Thanks for reading! :)

NATURO: It's not JUST anime.

Today, when I woke up, and the first thing that came out of my mouth was "I'm bored." I really don't know why I said that in the first place but as time passed by, I realize that yes; I feel bored all the time as if my life has no direction, path, light or whatever you wanna call it. Lately, I've been having this feeling that I'm just a tasteless food that no one dares to touch. Sigh. And I know myself too well, and thinking that it's one of those days that I feel really, really depress with no certain reason at all.



That awkward feeling that you get when you don't want to talk to anybody, and you just want to be alone until you feel better, or that feeling that you wanted put up like 20,000 layers of barrier to isolate yourself from the rest of the world. Yeah, I get that feeling a lot actually. What about you? I hope that you don't have the same disorder (Wow. Did I really said that? Hmm?!) as I do.

Okay so the feeling goes on, took a bath hoping that I would feel a little better but it seems like it has no effect after all. After preparing myself, I fired up my mean machine; first check facebook (OF COURSE, DUH?!) And saw a post there for Uzumaki Naruto. You know what super hit manga/anime nowadays. I such a fan of it, REALLY. :)


Naruto manga, cover page.

The post was about his birthday. It made me smile and a sudden flash back came in. Traveling memory lane all of a sudden and it came to me,  how it inspired me to strive and work hard for those people I treasure the most just like him. As I was looking at some photos in the net, I saw this..

 Fouth Hokage Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina and baby Naruto.

It made me realize, how blessed I was having both my Mom and Dad and a handful of siblings by me all the time. Naruto never met his father and mother until the age of 16 (I think?). His parents died protecting him and their village from the rampaging Nine Tailed Demon Fox.

Honestly, there are times that I get mad at how "stupid" my parents can be at times but it was also a way to let me know  how they love me. Talking the role of both Mom and Dad is no joke, they will sacrifice so much just to give you the world. This manga/anime always reminds me of that.

 Minato and Kushina protecting Naruto from the Nine Tailed Demon Fox. Anime and Manga.

And I came back to my senses, I've always thought of myself as a bridge, a bridge that would be strong enough to with stand all the adversities that may come or block the way and a bridge that would help connect my love ones with their dreams. Do I sound mushy? Hehe. *scratch head* Well, what can I do? That's what I feel.

Really, big thanks to Naruto and all his effort I can now have a brighter day. Haha!

And I'm pretty sure if Kushina and Minato were still alive by now, they would be soooo damn proud of what their son, Naruto has achieved. I know, Naruto is just some fictional character but he was made for a purpose, to serve as an entertainment and to be an inspiration to others. Thank you Naruto-Kun. And today, I would just like to greet you a happy HAPPY BIRTHDAY. :)

The "bestest" birthday ever. :)

What gives you inspiration? I wanna know. Thanks! :)
