Picture Perfect in Pink

Pretty Pink Stuffs from teammanilalifestyle (For Sale: Phone Pouch, Tote Bag, Lomography Diana Mini, Messenger Bag, Expandable Clutch, Leather Camera Bag, Flat Pouch, Canvas Camera Strap)
Just sharing a photo of me with a Giant Pink SLR Mock-up at Duty Free
I'm such a sucker for pink gadgets! Obviously, my favorite color is pink, since birth (I think) I took up Fine Arts in college, which included Photography as part of our curriculum that is why it was a necessity for me to own a DSLR. Sadly, I don't bring it with me as much, considering it's bulky (although not as huge as pictured) :))
Needless to say, that this Diana Mini from Team Manila is my best bet, it costs about PhP 3,450 (I guess it's not bad, considering DSLRs cost 10x more) Plus there is lesser need to post-process images. I've also been advised by several photography enthusiasts to go ahead and try Lomo Photography.
As Wikipedia explains, Lomography emphasizes casual, snapshot photography. Characteristics such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure, blurring, "happy accidents," and alternative film processing are often considered part of the "Lomographic Technique." Lomographers' statement of life being unpredictable curious adventure of "having fun while taking good pictures" :D

Sure, the weekend could be a letdown, it could turn out to be just another endless series ... The People You Will Fall In Love With In Your 20s | Thought Catalog Just sharing this blog post. And for the record, I'm part of the NBSB community (No Boyfriend Since Birth) - a product of the practicality of finishing College first and the happy-ever-afters of Disney and the romance novels and Classic Pinoy Teleseryes... And a huge part of it is, being uncertain of my maturity level to take care of one-on-one relationships, place somebody else's needs above my own. As a hopeless romantic with a childlike disposition, I truly believe in the last paragraph of this post, that although we encounter different people everyday, but I know someday, it will be clear that someone out there is truly meant for us, aka The One. Lucky for those who have found it earlier, ...

Jetsetter Fashion (in the Movies)

More than a good plot, what I enjoy about movies, are the characters who look their part. And since I am still 'jet-lagged' on the lovely dresses I've seen yesterday in the chick flicks: Eat, Pray, Love and Monte Carlo; I have dedicated my energies into assembling looks on Polyvore and writing about dressing up on travel by taking cues from Liz Gilbert & Meg Kelly. I find it really nice that her wardrobe adapts to the setting, you can distinguish one country from another, it's like showing how Liz has immersed herself to each culture. Among the three lead actresses in Monte Carlo, I would see myself wearing pieces from Leighton's character. She is the most practical, staying true to travelling light and looking great on the camera, without having to sacrifice comfort. And my favorite piece of advice when it comes to dressing up for yourself is to add your own unique sense of style. So the equation to sum this post up is Culture + Comfort + Creativity = J...

Hot and Cold Tagaytay

We had a spontaneous trip to Tagaytay to maximize the long weekend and escape Manila Heat. It was only planned the night before. Our first stop was at the Pagcor Casino, the good news is I just turned 22 (no entrance for minors 21 years old and below) but there were no cameras allowed. But that wasn't the kind of fun that my cousins and I had in mind. So we then took our merienda and headed off to Taal Vista and there was outdoor arcade overlooking the Taal Volcano, it was way cheaper and was all good clean fun. We had dinner at Summit Ridge, complete with grocery stores, tiangges and restaurants so you won't miss Manila that much. We stayed for the night at Character Hotel, TICC , it boasts its olympic-sized swimming pool, but since we weren't that masochistic to have a night swimming considering the cool temperature at night so we planned to take a dip after the Easter mass the morning after. On our way home, we stopped over at Nuvali for lunch and take a look at the e...
