Happy New Year to everyone!

To start things off, I decided to buy a simple, pink planner. I initially thought of buying the U-Chick planner but it got out of stock, so as an alternative, I bought this one which is relatively cheaper than the other and more minimalistic in design.

It has the features I like for what I consider as a good planner -- calendar overview, month overview, and a clean layout for things/tasks to be noted everyday. Another good thing bout this planner is that it's handy! Not too large nor too small; Just right, just perfect! LOL. ^^ Plus, it only costs Php250.00 XD

On another note, here's my look for New Year's Eve! :>



I always believe that the first day of the year sends the "general vibes" you'll be getting for the whole year. Hence, I see to it that I look great for the first day of the year! -- that is, not stressed-looking nor Haggardo Versoza as they say! ;))

Cheers to y'all! AWESOME 2012!

Like a Kid

Oh what joy it is to join my nephew Aedan in watching this year's Disney on Ice presentation at Araneta Coliseum! I felt like a kid once more by just sitting and watching the star-studded show wherein Disney characters like "The Classics" Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Daisy, "The Princesses and Princes" and "The Toys and Pets" of different movies and TV shows have presented their selves in a 2-hour show that actually made me teary-eyed at the end! FTW. XD

I definitely missed my childhood afterwards, leading to a day of flashbacks and a little regret that I didn't really enjoy being a Disney Kid back then! LOL. Now, I wanna watch all the movies that I have missed and movie parts that I've skipped. LOL! But yea, I never knew I'd miss those times when I just watch the good old Disney shows of my generation and dream that someday I'll find a prince charming. :))

Here's a picture of me and Aedan. This is a failed one because we were blurry, but then I like this pic coz it's candid! On another note, I'm getting hooked with Lookbook. o_o IDK but there's something with LB that makes you think of your next "outfit of the day" HAHA So there, I posted a new look! XD

Ciao for now~~ xox.

Leopard Christmas of a Biologist

Here I share to you my Christmas outfit for 2011! :D It has been a tradition to myself to choose a one-of-a-kind outfit every time we celebrate Christmas. Well, that "tradition" actually started only a few years ago after realizing that somehow the clothes we wear tell something about who we are. :D So for this year, I chose to "express" my Biologist vibes! :D

I opted for a dress with a leopard print! What made me choose this is the blue-to-green base color of it. It is unusual to get a leopard dress that has this color 'coz most of the time we only see the brown kind or the white one with blue leopard print. :D I definitely LOVED this outfit because it has green tones, and more often than not, I associate green color for Biology, particularly Botany, due to it being the study of plants. :D

For my make-up, I'd like to emphasize on the eyeliner and lip color! I totally like the cat's eye effect LOL, so yea.. I used Nature Republic Simple Gel Eyeliner in Dark Brown. It's actually my first ever gel eyeliner so I have good feedback on it! :D And then for my lips, it's Nature Republic's Petite Cherry Rouge M23 that I blogged about before. :D

I also wore a Christian Siriano sandals to match the grey tones of the dress. NOW, you may realize the reason as well behind me choosing a turquoise shade of nail polish! ^-^

For my accessories, I had a red bow earrings from Y.R.Y.S. (a gift from my thesis partner, Bea), A Lady Bug (Family Coleoptera) ring from Jellybeans which I bought months ago, and a rhinestone-filled watch from Fossil (a gift from my sister abroad). :D  I didn't wear my watch and ring anymore during the Christmas Day itself (hence I don't have it in the other pictures!^-^) coz we were only at home la~~

I decided to make a LookBook account because I was really influenced by you, dear bloggers! :)) This will be my first entry and "look" and I hope we can support each other through this. LMAO. So yea, HYPE ANYONE? :> ^-^ I love looking at all your style and it made me wanna hype them and fan you all! So there, I decided to make one. lols. :D

So to end this entry, here are few more pictures! :D

MERRY CHRISTMAS

P.S. I want to thank my cousin Emem for being my photographer! ♥ Lovelove!

Trying The Curls

I attended a symposium about Microbiology last weekend and was tasked to be an usherer for the said event. I tried curling my hair for the event... Now I'm thinking if I'd get a perm or just let my hair stay naturally wavy and just do whatsoever hairdo when needed. Here's a picture!

Hello curly hair! I find it really new whenever I curl my hair. I seldom do it! :)) But I like the outcome.

As usual, I have no ample amount of time to blog for hours or even visit your homes but I'll try after NMAT! :D I just thought I needed this break (aka blog in the middle of academic life) because I feel like I need to talk and share some stories with y'all before I explode in insanity! Till here!
