tangled hair

Maybe I should stop making this blog as my escape. :| But oh well. I had to do something that needs minimal brain (most especially, the cerebrum) activity so I did some quick re-sizing and color tweaks.

But srsly, this one’s pretty sad though. I did not literally spent the Sinulog with the complete gang, got lost from hour one until we (my other three lost friends) went to the starting point (Kerwin’s house).. :(

So what happened was, in the simplest sense: Went to Kerwin’s for fiesta lunch. Went to the streets to party like a rockstar. Got lost with Maan, Nice and Enzo from the rest of the group. Didn’t know how to locate other kids. Got “deadlocked” with perverts and smelly people. In and out of the parade’s perimeter. I got lost from Maan Nice and Enzo. Trauma for 5 minutes! MaaNice found me though. *cue applause* Then Enzo got lost. Rain. USC North Campus to the rescue. Enzo found us. *cue applause* Took pictures while waiting for the rain to stop because apparently, only Adele can set fire to the rain. *cue Sheldon laugh* Rain stopped. Went to find face paint booths. Found one. Vanity at its best. Went back to Kerwin’s. Reunited with the rest. Firework drama. Ayala Terraces’ party: great DJ, great mix. Wanted to join but too energy-less. Tada!

“Festive” as how Enzo would describe it.

With the only people I got to spend the street party with. It still makes me sad thinking we got lost from the rest of the gang. :(

Trying to document my facepaint. And yes, I behave pretty well everywhere.

And presenting the only decent firework photo I have:

This should’ve been posted days ago but I got frustrated over resizing my photos just so I could upload it easily. I don’t want the quality to diminish or something.. and I couldn’t figure out how. =| Thoughts?

She’s so beautiful it calms me.

Behind-the-scenes photo:

And yes.. the obligatory mirror photo.

Anyway, I took these photos during Christmas eve while waiting for midnight. I wanted to do something “productive” just because I was over-procrastinating the whole break and I did not want to play dress up.

Now that I’m in depressed mode, I decided to re-size it anyway because the sight of Photoshop makes me happy and all that~ and because blogs are supposed to be one way of venting/distraction. Oh well, I hope you like it though~ :)

Since I’ve been procrastinating for the whole Christmas break (ILY my thesismates.. I shall double-time! T~T) I thought I need something to do just so I won’t have an idle moment. I really have to be busy 24/7 just so my laziness won’t be triggered. I would certainly want 2012 to be my year. ♥ Lemme own this!

So here’s a “preview” of what I did earlier this afternoon.. I have to remake the other shots (maybe tomorrow when the sun is super up, I like shadows on my face) because it didn’t really portray what I wanted. Self-portraits is just so hard most especially if you don’t have a remote or something like that~ Timer is the best but I have to run and pose as fast as I can for 10 seconds (maybe I could adjust the time huh.. hmm.) considering the omg-my-hair-is-out-of-place problems and whatnots~ Plus, I don’t really have a proper studio, just the one plain pink wall I have in my room. Maybe I’ll buy 5 meters of cloth just so I could have that clean background without including my doorknob and all that sheez.

Since my hopeful-graduation is getting near, maybe a studio (cloth + appropriate lighting equipments: pink AlienBees, Falcon Eyes softbox & AlienBees beauty dish) perhaps? But it’s too costly.. so I don’t know. I’ll have to make my own if I could. :p

Oh and yeah, yep! I want to start a “lookbook” blog~ :) *inspired by Camille Co, Kryz Uy, Laureen Uy and Tricia Gosingtian! Of course I won’t be as good as them, but this is just all for fun. :) I like shopping and dressing up anywayz.keke
