This is what I wore on Christmas day. I watched One More Try at the Lucky Chinatown Mall with my sister, my cousin and her friend. It was a girl’s day out and it was fun! :)

And also, please say hello to my new hair!! I had it trimmed and treated and colored. Do you guys love it? This is my first post with my new hair. Hahahaha…It’s still a bit dry and I’m doing something about it already. I hate that I let my hair suffer this long. Super kawawa sya. Haaaaayy! I will never do it again to my poor hair.

I opted for this floral shorts that my sister and I bought in Divisoria. We wore matching shorts actually. I love wearing matching outfits with my sister. It reminds me of the old times. When we were little, my mother would usually buy matching outfit for us to avoid quarrels. Although we are 6 yrs apart, my mother still made sure that she love us equally. So imagine me wearing an outfit made for 6yr olds when I was already 12. =))

Anyway, its okay since I was always small for my age. So people still think I’m 7 when I was actually 12! And back then, I really don’t care. I’m super late bloomer. While my classmates are going gaga over their crushes, I am going gaga over my books. And I still believe that Jose Rizal is my first ever crush because I used to read his life story as a kid. As in yung college Rizal book ng Tito ko, dun ako natutong magbasa.

Since I’m wearing floral shorts, I matched it with a gray top. The top is very casual and very comfy. Perfect for a day at the mall. Though I hate the fact that I left my scarf at home because its freezing at the cinema.

I added some splashes of colors on my outfit via my salmon pink belt and red high-cut sneakers. I got the colors from the floral prints of my shorts and it worked so well. I really love dressing up. And I love how much little details could affect your entire look.

Again, I went minimalistic on my accessories. Those cute drop earrings are to die for! I love it really. And my cutie skull ring is another cute detail. It gives that rocker vibe on my look and compliments my high cut sneakers so well. I choose the colors of the bangles I wear and make sure that the colors are already present on my outfit to make it look polished. And oh! Do you love my beaded bag? You might think its too formal for a day at the mall but I really think its perfect. It dressed up my look a little and is really a nice touch.

I need to mention as well my colorful nail polish c/o my cousin. Hahahaha.. Pink and Blue combination is so cute! Lakas maka-teeny bopper ng polish ko and aylabhet!

I asked my cousin to take my outfit shot that day and I guess we had too much fun. We end up cam-whoring hence the gazillion photos in this post. Hahahaha! Sorry naman!

I am not really very confident in wearing high-cut sneakers. Feeling ko lakas maka-pandak eh! Please let me know what you think of my sneakers. Na-carry ko ba? Hahahaha! O wag ko ng uulitin at ipamigay ko na si sneakers? Please please let me know. Though I think its fine. Do you guys agree? Hahahaha..

And of course, here’s another Paparazzi shot! :) I think I’m loving the Paparazzi shots more and more. Hahahaha.. Yung isa mukha akong naliligaw sa kakahanap ng bahay ng ninong ko and the other one was like “hey! don’t take my pictures!”. Yay! Artista lang?

I wish all had a great Christmas! Now we are a few days away from New Year! Any resolutions? Hahaha.. I am so excited for 2013! Yay! I got myself something huge! As in! I’m so excited to let you all know about it pero tsaka nalang. Pag medyo okay na ang lahat. I really am so excited.

When my heart’s too full and there are things that I can no longer bear, this blog has always been my outlet. I try to steer clear of personal blogs because I think that the world was already cluttered with too much sadness and pain. I want to be a part of a happy journey. Just like everyone else, I just want to be happy!

We got a little less than 11 hours before Christmas. And I am here, alone in my room asking what’s merry on this Christmas? I’m sorry dear readers but I really can’t bear it anymore. A little sad entry is coming your way…

Santa, have I been naughty? Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year. Despite the makabutas-wallet na gastos, the horrible traffic and the stress that this season bring – it will always be my favorite season.

I’ve spent the past 4 Christmas thinking not only of being with my family but also a family I have come to love. And now I won’t be able to spend it with them. Maybe never.

Sometimes, you love someone so much that you forgot to actually love them. Silly? I know! But that is exactly how it feels right now. I am so so hurt but I couldn’t find it in my heart to get angry. Maybe because I love too much? Maybe because deep inside I am happy? Happy that the one that I love has finally found happiness? Even if its not with me? Or maybe because I am wishing that “the one” that I love has really found the happiness I can’t provide. Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you can’t make someone happy. And then you’d realize that its not what you are doing, that it is because it was you. The happiness is not you, the happiness is not with you. And because you love dearly, you just have to be happy without that person. Because that person can’t be happy with you. Setting the heart free is sometimes the best gift but the most painful one.

Crazy! I didn’t know what I have done to deserve this kind of Christmas this year. Santa? Am I a bad girl?

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Remember that this season is all about loving. Give love and spread happiness. One day, you’ll find the reason why you are hurting now and you’ll realize that the reason is worth it.

I know that most say that for us Filipinos, our Christmas starts on the first day of the Ber months (September 01 that is). But for me, it really starts right after Halloween or at least right after All Souls Day. That’s the time when you’ll take off all the Halloween decors and replace it with so much light and colors. I think it was the perfect contrast or if you’re someone who thinks deeply of things, it might mean something like… light and colors after the dark times. Wow! I’m being poetic. Now, where does that came from?

Anyway, today is the official lighting of the Ayala Avenue Christmas décor. Every year, those Ayala people make sure that the Ayala Avenue is well lit and is heavily decorated. I remembered years ago when a British client of mine told me that she loves Christmas in the Philippines because of the beautiful Christmas lights that we all over the metro. And I couldn’t agree with her more. Christmas is my favorite season simply because of the beautiful Christmas decors. The colorful Christmas lights and the lanterns and the gigantic Belen all over. Loads of stars and lights and colors and everything I love. I think Christmas is the season that best represents me because I am just as colorful and as lively and star-y as Christmas.

I can’t wait for the Ayala Triangle light and sound show to start up. For the past 2 years I’ve been spending almost every night of my weekdays watching the light and sound show. Kahit paulit-ulit naman sya, hindi ako nagsasawa o napapagod manood. The joy it brings to my heart is unexplainable. Yan lang ang saya ng pagta-trabaho sa Makati eh.

Anyway, sorry for the crappy photos. Hahahaha… Ang hirap naman kasi mag-picture sa gitna ng kalsada. But promise, I liked this year’s décor better than last year’s. Yung last year parang umiiyak eh. Ang sad lang. But this time, although its just white light and no colors, ang lakas maka-happy ng décor. Yey!

Today, I officially start my Christmas Season. Now, where’s my Christmas carol CDs?!!

xoxo,

Merry Christmas Guys...

Hope you'll have a blessed christmas with your family...
