iphone 4s for my smart network

Okei.. so aside from being a fashion enthusiast and a camera lover, I’m also a techy person but not that much. I just know how each technology works but I don’t know how to troubleshoot it. Hahaha… so ironic then!

Last December 2012, I bought a new phone as a Christmas/birthday gift to myself. It’s a phone that can actually manipulate as a mini computer and can do multi-task since it has stylus. I know what you’re thinking guys. It’s not an iphone 5 since it doesn’t have a stylus. Haha.. it’s a Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Actually, before I buy it, I had a dilemma between Samsung S3 and a Note 2. My friend, who works in an advertising/marketing company, which he holds the account of Samsung, discussed to me the difference between S3 and Note 2. Both phones performs really good. In my case, he suggested to have S3 rather than Note 2. Note 2 can actually give me satisfaction when it comes to its features. Actually, when it comes to size, S3 is better than Note 2. If you’re a minute-by-minute texter, Note 2 is not for you. Note 2 is too big and it can’t fit in one palm and it’s really for executives since it can be your daily planner and it can do multi-tasking for you. You just have to subscribe for a data plan consist of unlimited internet surfing so you can maximize the use of the phone. On the other hand, if you’re a minute-second-hour texter, S3 is so for you. S3 is smaller than Note 2. The only difference of those phones are the image quality, screen size, and of course, the use of stylus. That’s it. Note 2 is made for executives that doesn’t want to bring so much stuff with them. You can surf the internet without any hassle since the screen is big and you won’t have any difficulties of reading emails. You don’t have to use your finger since stylus can work it for you. I don’t have any regrets on buying that phone. I prefer bigger and complicated phones than smaller and easy-to-use phones. I love playing it since the features are very new to me. The phone is so me and I don’t have issues about it.

Meanwhile, since I have two networks that I’m using (globe and smart), I still have to look for an extra phone (or should I say, my “main” phone too since business transactions are made in my smart number) that I could hold out in public especially when I have meetings with the big men. I’m not a fan of iphone but I think I need one. I’m not aiming for an iphone 5. Iphone 4s can be my friend as long as I have it. My bosses are all using iphone and they’re advising me to have one. I have no choice. They influenced me already. They're all using iphone so I guess I should've get one. I WON’T sell my Note 2 because you know.. I’m in love with it. My concern is, I NEED AN IPHONE 4S for the sake of standards. My gwad! I have an extra phone for my smart but I guess it’s not enough for me. HAHAHA…. Arte ba? Yah, I know! But it’s a statement that I have to maintain. Ganun ata talaga pag ang mga kaharap mo e mga executives! Grrrrr…..

So is there anyone who sells iphone 4s in a cheaper price? Please do let me know. I need a brand new one. As much as I don’t want iphone, I still need to have one. I don’t have a date on valentines so I don’t have anyone to spend my money for. Haha.. I guess I’ll just spend my valentine’s with the phone and myself. Or maybe, you can gift it to me as your valentine’s/graduation gift since I'll be graduating on March *cross fingers*. I’m not blinkered. I prefer one gift for 2 occassions. Black or white color.. I don’t mind it. Just the iphone 4s that I would mind. HAHAHA…. But if you're willing to donate me an iphone 4s, BLACK color would be ACCEPTABLE! NYAHAHAHA..... :D

My New Year’s Resolution for 2013

1. More time for fitness. I need to achieve the 105 lbs. this year because I want to pull off the best version of me – to become leaner, stronger, and most especially… SEXIER! (naks!)

2. Read more books, petix mode less. I have to get myself on MORE books for a better grammar and more vocabulary. When you read more, the more you gain knowledge.

3.  More time for studying. Study! Study! Study! That’s what people are complaining about me. I want to study photography, fashion, and new media design. I want to continue what I started. I want to continue my real passion and try to enter the world of those crafts. Maybe in that world, I can excel like how other people excel on their own expertise.

4. Fashion wise, I want to improve on how I dress up. I want to invest on flats shoes and more lady-like clothes. Since I’m already 25, I have to be more on semi-casual look than hippie-fashionista outfit. Oh well, we’ll see. It’s a matter of you carry it and put swag on it.

5. Career wise, I have to be 2 steps ahead. My friends already have a good position with a good salary. If the company that I’m connected with now offer me a good position with a good paying salary, I will surely grab it. But if they don’t have any plan for me, then I think I have to look for a better job that suits my standards.

6. I should have a routine for cleaning my room. My room is a mess and a snake can live with it. Too much girl stuff caused the mess of my room and honestly, I can’t manage it now. Whew! Hello walk-in closet! I really need you NOOOOOW!

7. Continue the art of blogging. Blog! Blog! Blog! And let everyone know my insights. People can get to know me by reading my blog.

8. More to photos, not being photographed. Nyahahaha….. Okay, so basically, I’m a camera freak. I always want to be photographed. That’s why I haven’t practiced my basic skills in photography. This year, I should hold my camera and capture the beautiful moments in life. Last year, I missed a lot of events since I was so lazy to take photos. This year should be different. I’ll promise to myself that I’ll love again the art of photography and witness the capturing moments of adorable episode in my life.

9. Save more, shopping less. I spent a lot of money last year in buying clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories most especially when I was at the hype of crying my moments. They say, shopping is every girl’s best friend and shopping can make a girl’s depression fade away.

10. No to love life. This year, I should be wiser in entering a relationship. I got hurt so much that I lose myself just to be healed.  I should learn to choose who to love and who to believe so I won’t be upset if circumstances happen. This year, I should get to know first the people who want to enter my life. I don’t want to be cheated and lie again. One is enough and that’s it. Lessons have been learned and those lessons are charged to experience. I have learned a lot and I think it’s already best for me to become aware of. PROMISES ARE MEANT TO BROKEN. FOREVER ISN’T TRUE. Mr. Cupid should arrow the next person who worth the pain and joy since he already knew what I’ve been for the past 2 years.

Photo bombed

So let me tell some things about me. If you’re following my instragram (instagram name: nostalgicmortal) and facebook, you’ll notice that I always take photos of myself and you might get irritated. Some of my friends tell me that I’m too vain because once they open their facebook account, it’s my photo that’s first to be seen. So sorry about that. I told you I’m a camera buff. I used to study photography but unfortunately, I was the one being photographed that’s why I wasn’t able to learn the advance photography.

I love being photographed. I dreamt of becoming a model when I was a kid but it was just only a dream. I know I can’t be a model because 1.) I don’t have the height. I’m only 5’0. 2.) I’m quite chubby. I stopped working out because I have to concentrate on my studies since I only do my thesis now. 3.) I don’t have the guts to walk on the runway. I’m shy to show myself in front of people. I can project in front of the camera but not totally like a pro model or even a fashion blogger. I’m just a wanna-be like them. J

I don’t know why I got to like camera. I just love to see myself in photos, how I smile, and how do I like.

 

I love how my hair turned out this way. I didn’t have a bad-hair-day on this. This was taken last December 10, 2012 when we celebrated our dearest Scarloe’s 7^th month old birthday while we were watching Pacquiao-Marquez game. I used my ate’s ipad and maximized the time of using it since the one who uses it was still sleeping. Hihihi… *peace Yin-Yin*

 

My “amazing-baby” pose. I often have a good shot on wacky poses. Glad it turned out quite good on this photo.

I was eating J.CO donut on this photo that’s why I got to have a “ngiwi” smile.

Two sides of me. Do I look mataray if I don’t smile? What do you think? Yay or nay? J

So here’s the outcome of being camera freak J any comments? J

So let me show another set of my “vain” photos. These photos were taken on Christmas Eve while talking to my someone special. J I just feel pretty at that night because I like my attire. J I was wearing a bodycon teal sleeveless and a low-waist skinny jeans. Though I looked fat since it was Christmas season but my bodycom hid the flabbyness of my tummy J Skinny jeans were also perfect in me. I guess it was sized on my waistline as well as on my big bun legs. Nyahahahaha…… J

I love this photo. This look reminds of the blessings that I have. There are more reasons to smile and that I have to live the life that I have. I’m so thankful that God didn’t let me drowned in pain and heartache that I’ve been through on the last part of the year.

 

I apologize for my eyebags. I got to sleep before Noche Buena hits the clock.

So there you are. I already gave you a simple hint of who I am. So don’t be surprised if you open your facebook and startle you with my overloading photos. I’m a camera freak and fashion-enthusiast. Take it or leave it. J

2012 year ender

If you’re a reader of my blog, you’ll notice that it’s all about heartbreak. But it says on my blog description that I’m a fashion-enthusiast and a camera buff. How weird is that?! HAHA.. Oh well, 2012 wasn't a good year for me. What’s best on that year is that, I took my comprehensive exam for the 2^nd time around and gladly, I passed it! J Comprehensive exam is the last exam that should be taken in our program in ADMU (Master in Environmental Management) before proceeding to our master’s project (equivalent for a thesis). This comprises all the subjects and learnings that we had on our 3-year class and the exam is oral not written. And for you to know, I’m not good in oral examination and even reporting. I easily get butterflies in stomach every time I’m in front of people. But I know I’ll overcome it in time. HAHA..

So enough of my comprehensive exam. The important thing is, I PASSED! Right? Basically, my 2012 was a rollercoaster ride. Sometimes I was up and sometimes I was down. I didn’t notice the people who rode with me; that they were just sitting at the ride and watching over me; letting me do what I think best for me until I realize it is not the best after all.

I lost love at the last quarter of the year. I didn’t know how to pick the pieces of me when I lose myself. I let myself cry to sleep at night and even get so much drunk on weekends just to fill up the incomplete part of myself. Pieces of advice were scattered around the corner. I tried to sync it in my head because I wanted to help myself from standing up again.

Losing of the person you love doesn’t mean losing the people you have left when you were blinded by love. These were the people who I got hurt and took them forgranted when I offered my world to someone who I thought my FUTURE FOREVER. These were the people I didn’t expect I can run to when everything’s falling apart.

God has been pretty good to me. He gave me the best of everything accordingly. My prayers were answered one step at the time and gave me the people I needed the most. First, He sent back the closeness that I and my childhood friends back. We had time to hang out with each other and bring the most out of it. They helped me to be happy since I felt that I was left hanging in the air by the questions that have been stuck into my head.

These photos were taken last November 2, 2012 when I asked them to accompany me to buy a new office bag in Megamall. These are my 2 childhood friends who really know me well. I'm so glad that we could hang out like this even if I haven't been with them for almost 2 years. We could only hang out with each other during christmas and new year since we have our different lives even if we live in the same village and guess what... our house is just one step from each other.

From Joyer's intagram

 

This is my most favourite photo of ours. They asked me to make face since they know that I’m not getting good. I was in a worry mood at that time and thinking too much between I and him. So to make the moment quite good, here’s the solution for it. Isn’t it good? J HAHAHA...

 

Second, my family got closer now. My parents treated me as their "baby bunso". I'm very well-taken cared of. My mom prepares my breakfast in the morning and my daddy always asks to be accompanied by me everytime he wants to go out. Daddy even dated me last Dec. 26 at Kimpura, Greenhills after he shopped me with clothes and shoes as his christmas gift to me. I'm back to being spoiled brat again and I'm loving it. HAHAHA....

 

Third, I was able to go to places I haven't been before. I was brought by my friends and they let me experienced cheap thrills. Cheap thrills make me feel like a kid again most especially when I get dirty all over my clothes and got stained by streetfood sauce. (masyado akong alagain pagdating sa mga ganyang bagay). HAHAHA….

 

Fourth, I felt the love and care from my sister and brother-in-law. They gave me the happiest Christmas gift ever – shopping at Forever21 plus a set of imported body lotion and a perfume. I know I’m kind of “mababaw” kid but those are my weakness as my “kaartehan”. Everyone knows that I’m “maarte” and that came to be part of my well-being. HAHAHAHA….. My sister also considered me as her “bestfriend” since I’m always there for her during good times and most especially bad times. I want to repay all her goodness to me in spite and despite of ups and downs as being sisters. I always want to be there for her throughout the way most especially when she’s getting hurt by all her adjustments in so many things. We’re just 2 siblings and there’s no one we can get help and assistance from except from the both of us. So we just have to accept each other’s flaws whether we like it or not. HAHAHA….

Fifth, I was really surprised when my colleagues already spoke about me. I was teary-eyed when they were advising me about so many things. I felt their love and concern to me since they know what I truly deserve. I felt how special I am to them and showed me what’s best in me. I know I have so many flaws but still, they accepted me for who I am and they’re thankful that I became part of their lives.


Actually, I just felt the “best” part of my 2012 during the very last portion of it. I never expected that we’ll be closer than this. I even shared to them my most secret in life and what they did was to hug me tight and promised me that they won’t ever lose the grasp of our relationship. They gave me best friendship that we could have and I even considered them as my 2 big bros J

 

 

These photos were taken during Raiza’s birthday party last November 23, 2012. This was the craziest moment of lives that we even got to sleep in a resto-bar because of our drunken-ness so I really do apologize for my look. I was in the influence of too much alcohol at that moment and in the hype of crazy-ness as well.

I’m very thankful for all the people who have been there for me at my falling-apart season. You never fail of extending support to me and hug me with your love and care. Thank you for those nights of being intoxicated and days of being cray cray. Now I know what people mean when they say “I’m so blessed” because you defined it by means of your deeds. I won’t ever forget all the pieces of advice that you showered to me. I know I’ll find my very own true love someday because God is still busy writing and directing my love story and He wants it to be a blockbuster one. I’ll be looking forward to more and prosperous blessings this 2013 and I want it to share with you. Thank you for coming into my life. You are very much welcome to join my ride in my everyday journey.

BLUE DAY FRIDAY

It was Friday and I asked my dad to drop and fetch me at the office because my car’s wheel got holes by 5 wires and I was afraid to drive it even if it was already vulcanized. Of course, my mom and dad were surprised that I told them that I won’t bring my car and they have to fetch after work because Friday is usually my gimik day. But I felt that they were happy that I’ll be home early since they have to pick me up after work.  So anyway, glad that my daddy decided to go to market on Saturday (he used to go to wet market on Fridays) and perform his daddy’s duties with me. After he dropped me at the office in the morning, he immediately bought 2 new tires for my car and made the tire that was vulcanized as my reserved tire. Awww… I’m so fortunate that I have a daddy like him. He still sees me as a young little girl.

Anyway, I was thinking if I’m going to bring my car or not because I was hoping that maybe, someone will text or call me and ask for a little talk about “US” (I guess you know who I’m referring to) but I was also thinking that he won’t do it since he’s busy on his work or he’s busy with his someone new (Oh well!). I don’t know. Perhaps. I kept on thinking him on that day because I really didn’t know what’s going on with him. I really felt so weak. No enthusiasm on anything at all because for the third time around, it happened AGAIN that he’s been not texting for so long. Anyway, this day, I decided to let myself move ahead on this. Maybe, this is the time to end this because of great differences. People know about this and I know they would understand me regarding our situation. So here’s my first photo showing or trying to show positivity:

 

This was captured while we were on Lanuza St. in Pasig near my sister’s place. We were caught in traffic and I was thinking since I was wearing lipstick, I decided to take a photo of me with this faux smile. Nyahahahaha…… Sorry, FYI, I’m a little bit vain so pardon me if I take too much photos of myself. You know, I love being photographed and so that’s why I have never learned photography even the basic one. Haha.. And also, sorry for the blurred photo. I just used the front camera of my HTC Sensation phone and the car was moving so there you are.

 

Okay.. Moving forward. This was photographed in our office. I asked my officemate to use her phone to take photo of me since my HTC Sensation phone was charging. I’m not a professional blogger. I’m just a newbie in this craft so you can share tips on outfit shots. Actually, I want to enter fashion blogging but I don’t know much about it. So please.. I’m open for your comments and suggestions. J

Remember my entry “Pasalubong from Tito Jeck”? That was the COTTON ON cover-up that he gave me from Singapore. Actually, I was just making “lambing” to him for a pasalubong. I never thought that he was going to take it seriously. Until he arrived in the office and handed me a COTTON ON plastic bag with this cover-up inside it. Awwwww….. So sweet of Tito Jeck J thank you so much for this! You never know how you made me happy on this. This is my first ever COTTON ON item in my closet. J

It was funny when someone commented on this photo in my facebook. She actually asked me what’s my secret of being beautiful (awwwww….. so sweet of you, Mitzie. Thank you so much for being such a nice person. You never fail to boost up my self-confidence and thank you for putting a smile on my face that day!). Actually, I was really flattered at that time. I never thought of someone who really appreciates me. Thank you for that. You never know how much you brightened up my day. Being beautiful is not about the looks. It’s always how you are to people you meet. Always wear smile because smile can make a person beautiful. Smile even if you’re hurt because that smile can change what you feel inside. Don’t stress yourself too much on what pain you have because life is too short to dwell on that pain. Stay happy. Everything has a purpose. Later on, you’ll realize why it happened to you. Keep moving.

 

I used that blue dress so many times most especially when I’m still new in the company since I wasn’t yet entitled to wear office uniform. This dress was from my sister when she was still in NEDA (National Economic Development Authority). It was a government office located in Pasig behind UA&P (University of Asia and the Pacific). So that was a very long time ago and I still manage to keep it. Actually, I already kept it inside a box wherein those clothes are about to donate. Gladly, my mom hasn’t removing it yet. So that week, I was thinking what to wear on Friday and I immediately thought of it. I thought of this dress and partner it with that COTTON ON cover-up. I also thought that if ever I’ll have a surprise night out, I can still manage to look dressed-up even without that cover-up. And there you are. J

 

 

DRESS: Sisley

BELT: F&H

EARRINGS: The Ramp Crossings

RING: LSN Fashion

WATCH: St. Marage

NECKLACE: Tiangge

SHOES: Greenhills

COVER-UP: Cotton On

I posted this photo in my facebook and many have liked it. Thank you for all the likes. I may look thin here but being thin remains here. But in reality, I’M FAT! Yuycks! So I still have to go back on working out. Boohooooo!!!!! Many have liked it because of my shoes and those shoes were given to me by my sister because her feet were killing it. HAHAHAHA…. Thank you so much, sister! J You know how much I like it when you showed it to me. I’m so glad were almost the same size of shoes. yay! J

So there you have it. I made my day positive by dressing up like this. You know what I’m going through right now and I’m still hanging on a decision that was never made. I just hope for a better decision. Whatever that is, I’m fine. I don’t want to dwell in my past. I just want to be happy with my life ALONE. I want to do the things that I was doing way back when we were not yet together. I need to learn the basics in life because he taught me to depend on him where I can’t already move by myself. This time, I have to trust myself that I can still those things. I’m not young anymore. My life is starting now. I don’t need to depend my happiness on others. Instead, I have to be happy by myself. My plans will continue. I know he knows it. I just want to forget everything about us. As if he didn’t exist in my life. I’ll move. I’ll let go thing between us. I hope, next time, this won’t happen again; that I learned by mistakes and NEVER EVER do it AGAIN.

I’m beautiful and no one can ever make me beautiful except me. I’ll be STRONGER than now. I’ll fight for what I feel but I have to be smart enough to know what and who I’m fighting for.

Aug, 20, 2012 : Portfolio for CravingFor Make-up

When my friend texted me about this, I immediately agree upon it. I never asked anything about it because this was my dream ever. To put on make-up and to get my hair done very well by a professional make-up artist/hairstylist.

Photoshoot was one of my biggest dreams ever. Back when I was in highschool, I dreamt of being photoshoot for a magazine. One page of me was enough. As long as my face is there, nothing really matters.

I love to pose (well, you gotta check my facebook so you can see how vain I am when the camera starts to focus on me). I’m a camera freak. I took basic photography lesson but I don’t think it works. The photos that I took really sucks! So I guess I’ll be better in front of the camera rather than being behind. It was already tried and tested. Lol.

So anyway, my friend discussed this shoot to me. The shoot will be held at my friend’s house just across our home. Haha.. and I’ll be having 2 photographers. I told my friend I don’t want to have a guy photographer because I might feel odd since I’m just a newbie in this kind of theme. But when I learned that my photographers will be both female, I didn’t make a hesitation to do this. The shoot was going to be for a portfolio for her friend who studied short course for hair and make-up. So as a starter, she needs to have portfolio to show to her soon-to-be clients her works and her capability of giving satisfaction to her customers.

Actually, this was the first time I did a photoshoot like this. This was really new to me. I couldn’t imagine that I did this. For a lady like me who has lots of fats and no curves at all????? Oh gawd! Self-confidence was really boosting! Lol. J But my make-up artist/hairstylist really did a great job! I can say that all my photos were really amazing. She knows how to develop my assets as well as to create something better that will look good on me. So here are the behind-the-shoot photos taken by my good photographers:

 

So the first thing she did was my hair. I actually wanted to ask her everything about how he curled my hair because it really lasted long. The curl stayed up for almost 12 hours wherein the usual number of hours that the curl of my hair stays is only up to 1 hour. Haha..  yeah! 1 hour ONLY! I already put mousse on it after I curl it but before when before I get into an event, the curl’s already gone. Oh no! Can you tell me how did you do this??? It’s nice, right? I love how it turned to be from straight to curl! SERIOUSLY!

 

Okay.. So here’s the thing. I told you that this shoot was really new to me and the self-confidence was really boosting! Well, here it is. It was a body airbrush. Meaning, it was a bit nude but it was not pretty obvious. Some were telling me that my clothes were really nice because it was too colourful. Oh well, that’s how great and creative my make-up artist/hairstylist is! J The theme was RASTA. So when you think of RASTA, the first thing that will pop out of your mind is BOB MARLEY. See how BOB MARLEY will join this shoot. Lol J

Are you thinking how did she/they do it? First, she asked me to wear a sando and tie it so it will turn out to be a “hanging sando”. Second, they put tissue and served it as pattern so she can trace the shape of the “hanging sando”. And lastly, she used the airbrush and patterned the tissue that was shaped on me. We were really amazed when she was doing it to me. Just imagine you’re printing a design on a shirt. That was exactly she done to me.

So here’s the before-and-after photo. Look how she transformed me from kawawa-looking to an artistahin-peg. Lol. As you stare on this photo, umm.. As I’ve told you, I was half-naked since body airbrush was done to me. So please… NO TO JUDGEMENTS! Accept art as it should be! Lol. J

This is my one of my favourite photos. I really love how my photographer made me long-legged on this picture and as if I have a flat tummy! J yay! I got to inspired to go on work out more often. *evil laugh* So what can you say about this??? I looked tall, right?

Okay.. so this is it! Say hello to BOB MARLEY! Since RASTA was our theme, she drew Bob Marley’s face and traced it on me. AMAZING! Such a talented girl! Is it look like I still have a shirt on me? Hmmm….

The editing was so perfect! As if I really have a perfect skin as well. I look so thin here! Yehey for this! J I think Bob Marley was emoting too with me. hehe..

Close up shots

 

I love the photo on the left side. Everybody loves it too. The glimpse of the sun really reflects on my hair and it also adds up to the effect of the photo. Nice job!

 



This is the most “like” picture on my facebook. When I made this as my profile picture on my facebook, I got 78 likes and lot of compliments. For those who gave compliments on that photo, thank you so much! It was all because of my make-up artist/hairstylist and my 2 great photographers! J

This photo was captured by my good friend, Joy J see the signature on the lower right side? J She told me that this photo was one of my make-up artist/hairstylist’s favourite because she can write something on the side. Great photo, Joyers! J I so love it! J

 

Again, closed-up shot! Oh gawd! I so love my hair! I wish I could make my hair like this everyday! Please tell me how to do it! J

 

This is my favourite among my photos! It looks like I have a very smooth skin and fair complexion. I just feel so sexy and I can imagine the commercial “I can feel it” with matching moving shoulders. Haha.. I can fake myself that I’m thin where in reality, I’m NOT! Hate it! J

I remembered the moment when this photo was being captured. I was trying to do a half-smile (smile with no teeth) or should I say a “pa-cute”smile but I gues that half-smile or the “pa-cute” smile wasn’t achieved. HAHAHAHA…. But hey, again, it was carried by my gorgeous make-up and hairstyle! Still achieved!

Hohoho!!!! All I can say is….. I love you Joyers for these shots! You made me gorgeous here! You’re making me sing, “I’m sexy and I know it!”. Thank youuuuuu so much, Joyers! I love you! J

I didn’t get wrong that I bought this pair of shoes. Have you read my blog entitled Primadonna Shoes? So here it is. This was the first time I used the shoes. The shoes perfectly suit the theme. I need to be colourful and it turned out great! Yehey again for this! J

I wish I could have this look EVERYDAY.. SEXY & GORGEOUS! Thank you for this look! J P.S. Can you please beware of my smile? Not all my smiles are true. Some of them are just fake! Haha..

Photo credit to John (thanks John!)

So before I end this blog, I’ll introduce to you the people behind this shoot who made me extraordinary happy and made my extraordinary look. (From left to right): JOY. She’s my childhood friend who told me about this shoot and recommended me to her make-up artist/hairstylist friend to be their model for a portfolio. Obviously, the shoot was held at their house so I was really comfortable in placing myself anywhere there. She also made photography as her hobby since she wanted to enhance it and decided to be as one of the photographers. It’s her passion and I’m so happy that I have a friend who really takes a good photo. Someone will capture a good photo of me. haha.. *peace Joyers* J The girl after me is KAREN but Joy used to call her “Ka”. She’s my make-up artist/hairstylist. She’s the person behind my “wow” look. When I arrived at Joy’s house and saw her, I thought she’s kinda “masungit” and “mataray”. But as time passed by, we got along each other and got to ask her few questions. She also showed to me her tattoo and I was kind envied her because I want to have one. So anyway, if I have to endorse something or go to events, I’m surely hire this lady. She knows exactly what to do. She knows what to do on how to enhance some spot on your body or face and she also know what to focus on you. She’s really a good artist. After this shoot, I didn’t regret any moment of the day because when I saw the pictures taken in their camera, there was nothing to be ashamed of. Everything was perfect! I wish I could always get this look. Hey Karen, please tell me how you did this. Teach me how to curl my hair and how it would last. Haha.. Teach me how to achieve this perfect make-up on me. J And last, the girl beside Karen who wears pink shirt is KAREN too J they’re both Karen and they’re both good with their passion. Karen is the sister of Bambi’s (Joy’s cousin who's also my friend) boyfriend. We were glad that Karen has an external flash and a 50mm lens to capture a good photo. She was using Nikon D90 camera with a battery grip and external flash. I and Joy realized that a camera with a battery grip was too heavy to handle most especially when you hang it on your neck. Haha.. It was quite tiring for a shoot having a battery grip with no tripod.

So there goes out our photoshoot. Thank you for this, guys! It was like a dream came true for me. Haha.. I hope there’s still a next time for all of us. You know my number and I’m just one text/call away. I’m always good on weekends and after work.
