Long Skirts: perfect for cold movie houses

I was so comfy in the theatre, I felt like I had a blanket.

What if I told you this outfit cost me PHP450? (sans shoes)

Satay Restaurant

It cannot be said that I do not eat. I love eating as much as the next man, woman, or barbarian you can find. Most of the time, I ruin great food blogging opportunities because I get so excited when the food is served that I forget to take photos. 

Satay's Pad Thai

 The other day, we visited Satay along Pasong Tamo Ext.

To Dugan

Our sense of mortality can grip us in many ways. When it does, we find that what we once perceive to be permanent can seem so temporary, transitory.

My earliest memory of you was caught in photographs. When we were little, you visited us. We were playing in the basement of the house– you, me, and Camille, on that inflatable boat. You were always fun, I thought.

DIY Tape Manicure: Boxes with Borders 2, Mod Nails

As promised, another tape manicure DIY with different colors.

No more videos

I just found out that all my videos have not been saved properly. Since exporting them all from my iPhoto, I haphazarly clicked through every prompt without reviewing the settings. For months now, I have been saving all my video files in JPEG. So there, all my video files gone. Some may argue that they were never really there in the first place (shut it, smartie-pants, I say to you.) I find no way to retrieve them,  since I have already deleted the same videos from my iPhoto.

I just feel so sad, I want to eat the other half that remained of the 1.5L Reese's ice cream I binged on earlier. Now I have cause to gorge myself with food and wallow in a state of serious depression.

Sure, I'm overreacting.

But look at how cute the videos were:

(Yes, only screenshots were left)

This technique is turning out to be a favorite!

A new spin on the tape manicure.

Bleaaaghhhhhh

Okay, I admit it: I only post outfit posts when I'm a little lazy to write and I want something up on my blog.

My congratulations to Lej and why this semi- sucks for me.

Last weekend, Lej invited us to lunch to celebrate the college degree he had just earned.

Lej thanking God for the food on the table, and also that piece of paper he worked his butt off for 7 years, I bet.

DIY Tape Mancure: Colorful Triangles/ Choose Philippines Themed

These last few days has left me busy with Tick-Talkative and tinkering with the laptop. After switching my Air with a Macbook Pro, I've been glued to the now 13 inch screen for days now. After a whole week of sleepless nights and the development of a small twitch in my eye from hours of staring at the lcd, I managed a small break yesterday to paint my nails. This short recess proved useless as the manicure I was going for involved letting each layer dry, and the time spent drying them was still time spent in front of the computer.

The manicure turned out this way:

And now the tutorial:
