I love how hair accessories are re-surfacing right now. You know those flowers, feathers, eye veils, hats, head chains/strings and everything (I don't know actually what to call them)? Yeah those things amazes me. Well, it has been a long time since hair accessories appear on ordinary day Filipino fashion. Maybe it is too hot here in the Philippines but I believe that this generation deemed them unfashionable. But here I see people now wearing flowers, feathers and tiaras on their head. I could thank Pokwang for her daily headdress during her Wowowee days (although most of them are comically absurd and "unwearable") for the resurrecting these supposed-to-be-extinct fashion accessories.

But the thing about these on going crave for roses and wings on one hair is that you get the sense that something is not right. I am not a fashion expert (and I always get criticized by the way I dress) but I am not that fashion unaware to know that one wears a horrible and pretentious tiara. You can always get to know if one is not wearing it the proper way. And it irritates me a lot, just like Mich Dulce was irritated by the hats in Rosario.

Yeah I know, fashion is art and art is about expressing one's self but you can't always wear a obnoxious feather hair band and pair it up with your pambahay (aka pambili ng suka) attire. Worse, your shining neon violet head band doesn't go with your yellow and brown polka dot dress. Not that you look atrocious but it makes me wanna hit you straight to your face. One is free to express herself but there are just things that look disgusting to another's eye.

So lesson for today: Don't try to pretentiously over decorate yourself.

PS. My lolo's friend asked me to do a brochure and I got paid. yey, photoshop is my bestfriend!

Since it is new year, then it is unavoidable to wonder what is in store for us for the next 12 months of our life. Questions about luck, love, career, money etc often flood during the first few weeks of the year and here comes our super experts (and some funny pretenders like Madame Auring) in feng shui and zodiac. Well, I personally don't believe in these and totally believe that one makes her own fate. However, as curious as I am, I found myself browsing to feng shui/horoscope websites and took notes on my zodiac predictions.

2011 is the year of the metal rabbit. They say that these year will be guided by the gracious and pristine manners of the rabbit. For most of us, this will be a generous year. Since I was born June 11, 1992 my signs in the Chinese and Western Zodiac are monkey and gemini. Here are some few predictions and advices from them:

Gemini:
     -can achieve more than they will lose.
     - should not rush things, makes decisions rushly
     - Main line of conduct should be the ability to harmoniously fit into any situation and not resist it
    Love:
     - may engage in several romances at once (sounds like many boyfriends.....ooooh)
     - destiny will provide the ideal partner (I can't wait)
     - will spend summer in love
     - romantic relationship entered during the year will last long.
    Career
     - good luck will guide entire 2011


Monkey:
    - A very busy life filled with humour, quarrels, tear reconciliation are standard liaison for 2011
    -  has a good chance of becoming famous and well-known
    - It is necessary to know own limits and avoid gambling and speculations.


Sounds like a good year for me then. But what I look forward for this year is about my love life. I want to experience a full-time romance, unanchored on sexual drives and full of passions. Well maybe because of the gay flicks that I have recently watched (I recommend Latter Days, Shelter and Une question d'amour) but also because of my eagerness to meet my true love.


Can't really wait for this year. Yes to positivity.  

So yeah, goodbye 2010 for good and hello positivity for 2011.I wasted 2010 from doing nothing but staring at the screens of computers and finding myself. Last year was my first year and here comes 2011 which brings me a generous amount of hope.

So the first song I sung this year was Better Days. I dunno why I chose to sing this song but somehow it gives me the eerie feeling of a pre-telling. Great song to start the year!

Just finished watching The Black Swan starring Natalie Portman. Great watch all I can say. Except that Natalie Portman forgot to wear a nipple tape. lol. The ballet was nice, the plot is superb. This is what I call a movie. Not just a cheap recycled material compared to Enteng Kabisote and Agimat shiz.

NP may not deserve the Oscars for 2011 but nevertheless, she did a great acting.

Highly Recomended.

Just look at NP's neck here. She does deserve the Best Neck Award. NP doesn't fail me. I sooooo love her. Especially in The Other Boleyn Girl. One of the best actresses in her crop.

Yeah, I changed the design of this blog. yey for me! woot woot.
You see, I am new to adobe photoshop and a few days ago, I am completely unaware of how to use those buttons in the window. They are just too many of them and as analytic as I am, they seem too many to digest. I guess it would take me a whole college degree of lessons to learn Adobe photoshop. But thanks to online tutorials, I get to do some stuffs that I was not able to do.
Now I am focusing on making changes in this blog. I know I still have too many to learn when it comes to web designing but I guess I can manage to have changes here one at a time.


That's it for now.

PS. I did two images for the background. Here are they

 

This is the first one I did and it kinda looks mediocre for me. So tried to experimented a few things with Photoshop and below is the final piece. (So proud!).

My passwords are too long and they are too scientific to use, so right now I decided to change all of them for the sake of convenience. It is really hard when you share computer with your brothers (we are not rich) coz you can't really just make itself on automatically log-in for the fear of leaking informations (lol, there are things they shouldn't know). Therefore, I always find myself, every time using the computer, under go the tedious carpal-tunnel-risked finger position to type at least 32 characters that mean a single protein found in the mitochondria of a blue-green slime with two forks growing on to his head. lol.

That is for now.

PS: as you may see I am now writing without that title. What for, I am a random thinker and I can't even arrange the cluttered ideas in my mind.

I have been practicing with Adobe Photoshop and I am trying those online text tutorials. They went soo good take a look. 

I love the first one. The last one was supposed to be gold plated, but i think I typed too much. I have to re do it.

Good times!

PS: I'm listening to an uploaded clip from Good Times with Mo Twister. Marc Nelson and Rovilson Fernandez on the Forbidden Question.
