First Two Days of 2013

First days of my 2013 :

spent it with my Papa and Mama in our hometown

got some new tees (California print + tie-dyed shirt) and NYLON Mags!

checked the first issue of MINC Magazine which I think has one of the coolest crew in the magazine world

visit their website at www.mincmagazine.com 

had some catch-up with former flatmates (with my BFF) in our little plaza

broke the lp record player's needle

checking out my Pop's vinyls from The Beach Boys to Pet Shop Boys

it's all about being with the fam and friends :) and running. 

Awesome to say. For me, the past 2 days were productive. 

Good night to all.

Lovely New Year!

The Appointment

Mama and I had to go to an appointment. Sadly, the person we wanted to meet was rushed to a nearby clinic. We had to go back to our way. Had some lil shopping and more checking-outs. Mum bought me a new pair of skinny pants and a hat as gifts for June. How awesome it sounds. Haha! Thanks Mama! :) And to my delight, I also found instant Mee Goreng noodles in the supermarket. It quadrupled the cost compared back in Indo where it only costs PHP4.00.

This is me waiting for Mama trying on some pair of pants.

 Happy with the new stuff I've got from F21 and some Mi Goreng (indo fried noodles) instant noodles from SM! I couldn't wait to pair this hat with something so beach-themed tops and bottoms for our trip to Bora this weekend (c/o Queen from Oz). Weeeee! Hope the weather gets along with us! :) 

Happy Father's Day!

Every third Sunday of June, we celebrate the day honoring fathers around the world. Even though some countries do it in other months, every father is worth remembering on this very day. The vitality of our fathers' role in the society tells us how they influence people around them. My father has been my role model and I am so thankful having him. I must say nothing is perfect but Papa has been there for us through ups and downs. I wouldn't be the person I am right now without his wisdom and guidance as I grew up to be independent wise - together with my Mama. I also want to shout this out to everyone that we are happy and blessed to have fathers like you that brought us here to see this wonderful world!

We had a simple celebration here in our hometown. With Mama and I present for his day, we had some awesome dinner here at home. Papa is not really a camera-type of person yet he gave it a go for me. I love him so much and every single day, I am so thankful to have him as my Papa. 

To my dear Papa, to my older brother and to the rest of the fathers our there, Happy Father's Day to you! <3

Mama and Papa; simple yet delish dinner at home ;) <3

HAPPY FATHERS' DAY TO YOUR DADS! 

Our Lola Bella VW Van, My Niece, Her Baby Doll and I

I have been staying in my hometown lately for 2 reasons: it's Holy Week, time to spend with the family and reflect on the things that I should do, and I still haven't found work yet.

Today, Mama and I decided to go to my brother's house. My niece just woke up and thought about checking our van in the garage next door. I thought about taking photos of her dressed up with her choice of clothes and accessories to wear and it went pretty fun!

Here are my very-Asian niece's photos with some of mine:

with her Half-Italian soon-to-be playmate (cuz the lil boy is prolly scared of her) and her talking baby doll

 This is how I look today. It doesn't take me much time to choose what to wear as long as I'm comfy with it.

Hat - Accessorize (SM/Ayala)

Sunnies - Vintage Wayfarers Ray-Ban from my Older Brother

Earrings - Forever21

Top - Thrifted

Bag - Thrifted

Necklace - Collage (Ayala)

I miss our van and my sweetie. And would love to go back here, tag my niece along for her photoshoot and check the van from time to time before I can drive her around the city. Have a meaningful Lenten season to all!
