AVICII in Manila- Remastering Cool with Ray-Ban

Had to sneak in my Olympus cammy to the concert & getting retweeted by Avicii twice made it worth it! Still getting tons of notifications of people retweeting my photos. Craaaaazy.

So glad I got the chance to watch Avicii at the MOA Arena last night! I was sick the first time he came to Manila so I had to back out from the event even if I was already dressed & made up. 

I can't even explain how amazing the sound & visuals were, my photos don't do 'em justice! I was staring the whole time & dancing. I spent the whole day sourcing in heels so my feet were dead tired, but that didn't stop me from enjoying (take note- zero alcohol!). The big surprise for me was when he dropped some Notorious B.I.G.- the whole arena went wild!!! I still can't believe how he's only my age! 

Such a FUN night, thank you so much to Ray-Ban Philippines for the tickets and for hosting my blog giveaway!

I may not have worn Ray-Bans during the concert, but I wore my clubmasters to work that day...

And yes, I had them changed into prescription lenses. I really love these frames! 

Also wearing a Neil Felipp skull/shogun choker

Photo diary- first half of October

My new DOOMED crystal skull shot glasses are pretty awesome and I regret purchasing only three. I've been hosting a lot of those chill nights at my flat and had to go through a lot of disposable cups for shots. Right now my place isn't earthquake-proof because of the accumulating glassware at my minibar. 

I got those shot glasses from this site but you can purchase them on eBay or Amazon as well. 

Topshop's 10th Anniversary

Kryz in MiuMiu

Her bib was what attracted people to approach her... cos they also wanted to see their reflections :))

They pitied me for not having anyone to go with, so they were forced to come :))

Megan

Caught in the act- catching up on the latest chika!

We were playing around with these new colosplash cards by placing them over the lens of my camera...

Kryz's shoes from SoFab and Laureen's is from Gold Dot. They were SKY HIGH wedges.

Loved the LED screen

Didn't take a lot of photos since the place was packed! Went home early since I had to prepare some SkinnySweets orders for the next day plus had some schoolwork to do.I forced myself to go out since I wanted to dress up. I've been seriously CRAZY busy during these past couple of months.

I'll save you from the boring list of things I've had to commit to...

A lot of people say that it's always my choice to stay busy. I can always say no to job offers and projects. The thing is, I've never been the one to pass up an opportunity to learn and to work with great people. Growing up, I've always thought that being exhausted all the time was better than being idle and bored. I like seeing the results of my hard work. While it does take a toll on my health at times, in my mind I'm always saying, "It's going to be worth it in the end." And most of the time, my efforts do pay off. I also know when to drop things- and maybe that's because I know my capabilities and priorities enough to know when something doesn't seem right. I've never been the one to regret my decisions, but I know there are also times when I've regretted not having enough time to do a certain job.

My life's always been revolving around this work cycle, and at times when I'm given the chance to relax and regain my energy, all I can think of is "What else I can do after this?"

There's always something that needs to be done. There's always an opportunity to serve other people while learning and gaining from the experience.

My attitude seems crazy to a lot of people. Mom says this is the same work ethic my father has... But I have to work on organizing and having that sense of urgency to act on certain things quickly. I have to know which to prioritize and to PLAN things ahead. I am a bit carefree at times. I know I just can't wing it on certain occasions, but something in me wants to just allow things to happen naturally. I am slowly trying to let go of my old uptight and tense self. I want to stay calm and to remember to go with the flow of things. I trust in Him and what He's planned for my life.

We are weekenders.

Friday night- Republiq

Went to Republiq for KC Montero's birthday right after dropping by Fiamma for Joe's bday.

Sam wasn't supposed to go but Pao was able to drag her out of her house. She was supposedly my "surprise".

I saw so many people but I decided to enjoy the night-- I don't have a lot of photos.

Okay we clearly didn't agree on what look to go for- friendly or fierce?

My thesis groupmates/Skinny Sweets models are so pretty!

Apl.de.Ap! I was a foot away from him but of course I didn't want to show that I got a bit starstruck... I know he's filo and all, but c'mon, he's known all over the world! Still trying to figure out why he's in the country.

Saturday- June's EP launch at the Collective

Skinny Sweets debut. June's HEAVY EYES EP. Lots of CSB friends. Plus some hipster kids.

I missed Inez

First time to sell our cake pops. WOOHOO! Still happy that everyone who bought from us kept raving about how good they were... :)

June before her performance

Just found out that Vanessa's staying here for good and she's now under Elite Manila! Damn, Miss Cebu! :))

Sunday @ High Street

Father's day surprise. RAIN. RAIN. RAIN. Led worship (Church Simplified) at 2nd's with Riz, Bebo and Joe. Met up with Steven. More rain.

brother: "Why do you always bend your left knee when someone takes your photo?"

me: "That's the I WANT TO PEE pose."

And oh hey, I am flashing my biggest smile. Still no gums. FML.
