"That's what this weekend is about. Not regretting our pasts but appreciating everything we've got now. Great friends, great memories." ~Lucas Scott (1TreeHillQuotes on Twitter)
Secondhand Serenade?
Well, we've been planning for so long to sell our 'mountains of old clothes' in order to make room for what we're still using. Surprisingly, I'm getting bigger since some of my clothes won't fit me as nicely as they used to about 2 years ago. That was also the case of my sisters, but then some of the 'hand-me-downs' don't fit me as well so they're also part of our 'ukay-ukay.' But the most surprising part, people actually bought them; for instance, someone actually got my blouse for P80! The total earnings for one day is (drumroll please) P1,800-- which goes to prove that, "one man's trash is another person's treasure."

Relax. See a movie. Go on a Movie Marathon!
Last Saturday, my sisters and I tried to watch on HP7 part 1 on dvd (we weren't able to watch it last year) so we'll still be able to catch up for part 2. Too bad, we did not enjoy it much coz' it pauses every now and then. :|

The next day, after lunch and we're all watching TV while enjoying Tetin's WiFi, we saw the trailer for Transformers3, and visited clickthecity.com/movies for the schedule (we were able to agree with 5PM)
It was really a great film - can still par up with the first 2 installments, especially on the fight scenes, tear jerking scenes and comic reliefs.. :)

And then we pigged out at Shakey's afterwards. It was a great family bonding time, we get to catch up and plan for the 2 next big events for this month: 2 of my sisters' birthdays. :)

Save Baguio Pine Trees

I have been to Baguio City, twice in my life. The first trip was ten years ago when I was 12. And just recently, last February for the Panagbenga Festival. And because of its cold weather and abundance of strawberries, peanut brittle and choco flakes, not to mention wearing 'Winter Wardrobe' (knitted sweaters, berets, etc.) and most importantly, the picturesque mountain views with towering pine trees, I have come to love the place. So it is only right that I dedicate an artwork for the City of Pines, the summer capital of the Philippines. I may not be an environmentalist holding a picket along with the locals, but this I guess is the best I can do as an artist - to inspire people that the beautiful riches of our country is in our natural resources, we must take good care of it, as stewards of God's creation. I thank you. :)

The Gap

Ira Glass on Storytelling from David Shiyang Liu on Vimeo . "All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap.  It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions." -Ira Glass What drove me to post this inspiring video is the fact that one work of mine has been finally put up in EDSA. It's like a milestone to be celebrated, but it falls under the kind of work that you're not really very proud to show... not because it's that bad, it's just trying to be good. I am not going to name-drop that certain brand, and I have to say that the artist does not always have the call on how can it be done solely, there are a lot more people involved in the creative process.  This is just the beginning and so I hope and pray that in the near future, I'll get past the stage where I just work for the sake of getting the job done but because it was...
