HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY TO ME!!! =)


Wish #18: To stay in LOVE :)

And now, I'm down to my last wish...

I wish to stay in love with everything. I wish this feeling would last forever. I don't know how to express how much I love that person and how important he is to me. We've been through a lot of things but I still chose to love him. I tried to give up this feeling but it keeps on coming back. He may not be the perfect guy in this world, but he's perfect for me.

I wish that whatever we have now, it will stay the same. I don't know the exact words to say how happy and in love I am right now. Everything is just so perfect.

I'm in love and always will be.

Wish #17: A Blessed Life

My life has been so blessed for the past 17 years and I couldn't ask for more. I feel like everything is falling into its right place this time. I'm blessed to have a loving and supporting family, a good company of friends, and a special someone who inspires me with everything. Oh, I just got lucky to have all of them. =)

I wish that God will continue to bless me as I enter a new stage of my life. Like what I always say, things would be really different when I turn eighteen. I don't know what to expect but I'm actually excited to see whatever life throws on me. :)

I wish that God will bless me in whatever decisions I make in life. Being blessed is being contended with everything. :)


Wish #16: Earphones

When I entered our gate yesterday, my dog welcomed me with a BANG. Because he's so happy to see me, he attacked me right away and he pulled my earphones. Then I just saw my earphones on the floor, broken :( I was really mad at my dog because I just bought that earphones a few months ago. I tried to fix it but only the left earphone is functioning. Waaah. :(( Wrong timing Doggie. Tsk.

So now, I wish to have a new earphones. Any earphones would do but I like Philips because its cheap and it comes in different colors. As much as I want to buy the original Apple earphones, it would cost me a lot of money. I know I can be kuripot in things like this so I just opt to buy the cheap ones. I'm not comfortable now to use my Ipod with only one earphone. Huhuhu. :(

Wish # 15: Happiness

I know everyone deserves to be happy. Problems may come into our life but in due time, everything will be okay and happiness would always prevail. I'm happy with my life now and I wish that it'll always stay this way. I've already found my happiness.

Simple things in life makes me really happy. Seeing the people I love the most makes me happy. Now, I don't want to waste my time on non-sense people and things. I know that there are beautiful reasons to be happy with my life now. :D

stay HAPPY and stay in LOVE

Got my dreams, got my life, got my love, got my friends, got the sunshine above. Why am I making this hard on myself, when there`s so many beautiful reasons I have to be happy.

Wish #14: To graduate next year

Its my last year in DLSU and hopefully, I could graduate by June 2010. June 2010 is my target year to graudate. That's why I'm really protecting my academics now. I don't want to ruin any chances that would be given to me. I know my priorities and studies is on top of my list. I know I'm only 18 when I graduate and I don't know yet whats the next step for me. Of course, I want to find a work already but I feel like i'm not ready yet to face a new chapter in my life. If opportunities will open its doors for me, then I will not hesitate to grab it. But I want to learn more. I still want to discover a lot of things. I want to have additional knowledge. So I'm planning to study again, but I've not yet decided on what course to take. For now, I will focus first in my studies. I told my parents once that I will fail one of my major subjecs for me to get delayed so I'll be acentennial graduate on 2011. Well of course, I was only joking at that time. I wish to graduate next year, and I believe it would definitely happen. :D

Wish #13: More time with my friends

I miss all of my friends. I miss my high school friends. I miss my CHICAS. :( It's so sad to think that I haven't been hanging around with them ever since this first term started. Our schedules are different now compared to the previous terms that we've been together, whether minor or major subjects. Lexie and I still have the same schedule this term. But time doesn't really permit us to hang out with them. I miss talking and laughing with them. I miss all our kalokohans. I miss everything. :( With my high school friends, I miss them too. I only have communication with a few of them. Sometimes, I miss my high school days. I still remember all the things that I went through those days but I'm just trying to remember the good things that happened to me. If not for it, I wouldn't be the person I am right now. :)

I wish that I could spend more time with my friends. I'm not taking them for granted because they're very special to me. Maybe, its just because of our busy schedules thats why we can't find time to be together. I wish I could spend my out of town trip with them. :) Especially to CHICAS, I wish I could bring back the days that we're always together. I wish the six of us could hang out soon. I wish I could spend a whole day with them doing the things that we used to do before. :D Too much drama I know, but that's how important my friends are to me. :)

Wish #12: Out of the country trip

The last time I left the country was in the year 2005. I was only third year high school then. I went to Bangkok with my siblings. It was actually my first international trip. :) I still remember when I was so excited to arrive at the airport, to fall in line in the immigration, to get my passport stamped, and to ride the big airplane. =))

And now, after 4 years, I want to go out of the country again. We have plans, but none of it happened yet. I wish that on my birthday, someone would generously pay for my plane tickets to the country of my choice. I just really want to ride an airplane again. It just feels so amazing everytime I ride it. :P I want to explore other cultures. I want to meet new nationalities. I want to see my Kababayans who were working abroad. I want to experience shopping in another country. :) In short, I want to discover and experience everything that's different from my country. :D

And now, here are my top 10 destinations if I go out of the country:

1. New York
2. Los Angeles
3. Las Vegas
4. Paris
5. Italy
6. Spain
7. Bangkok
8. Hongkong
9. Macau
10. Singapore

Ohhhh... I really wish I get the chance to visit these countries. Just one country, and I would be really really happy. =) Its a big happy birthday to me. :D
6.

Wish #11: Out of town trip

I think that I really need a break after this first term ends. I want to go out of town with my family or friends. I haven't had an out of town trip yet with my friends. I know that there would be a lot of fun if we go out of town together. If I go out of town, I don't want to ride an airplane unless its needed. I would prefer to ride a ship/boat (I haven't tried yet) or just to drive all night long. More fun. More Happiness. More discoveries :)

I want to explore the Philippines. I want to go to the different provinces here in the country. I want to experience their way of life. It feels to good to be away from Manila for a time. I want to relax and enjoy other places here in the country. Everytime I go out of town, I find my life really peaceful. The feeling that I'm away from traffic, pollution, and problems from the city. :D

So here are the top 10 destinations that I wish to go to:

1. Pangasinan ( there's really something that I like in this place)
2. Boracay
3. Puerto Galera
4. Subic
5. Cebu
6. Davao
7. Vigan
8. Cam Sur
9. Bohol
10. Baguio

Wow. I hope I find a way to go to these places. It would be really awesome if that happens :)

Wish #10: Good Health

No more Swine Flu please. I wish good health for myself, my family, my friends, and those people who are very special to me. I hope this A(H1N1) would finally come into an end. Swine Flu scared me to death. I thought I had it when it hit my school and classes were suspended for 10 days. I had fever the day it was announced. Anyway, I'm in good condition now and I'm more conscious to my health than before. I take Vitamin C everyday before I go to school to boost up my energy and to immune myself from diseases. I became more aware of my personal hygiene to prevent the spread of the disease. I hope I become physically fit soon. I'm starting to tag along with sister everytime she goes to the gym. I enjoyed it the first time I went with her. I'm honest enough to say that I'm chubby and there's nothng wrong about my body. I just need to lose some weight. :P I promise that I won't starve myself anymore. I don't eat sometimes because of two things: first is because I want to lose weight and second is because I want to save money. I know its not good for my health. I don't want to end up lying in a hospital bed. So in the next few days, I'll try to have a healthy lifestyle :) GOODLUCK :P

Wish #9: To be a Dean's Lister

The last time that I became a Dean's Lister is 3rd term during my frosh year. I was first honors then. Ever since I had my majors, I never made it in the Dean's List. I tried my best to study well during my 2nd year but I guess it wasn't just good enough.

Honestly, I miss being a Dean's Lister. Its not about the unlimited cuts that I would get. Its about how my parents would be proud of me. I know its the only way to give them back what they've given me all these years. I know how happy and proud they are everytime I make in the Dean's List. Especially my Dad, I know all the sacrifices he made just to give me everything that I want. I know he deserve something like this. I know how happy he was during those times that I'm a Dean's Lister. And I want to bring that happiness back to him.

I always wish this everytime I celebrate my birthday. I always wanted to be a consistent Dean's Lister. I hope this time, it would already happen. I'm working extra hard now just to achieve this goal. I wish to be a consistent Dean's Lister in my last 3 terms in DLSU. I promise myself that it would be different this time. I'll try to balance everything and not be paranoid about other things. I have faith in myself that I could do it. I know that I will always get the support of my parents, friends, and God, whom I trust everything that's happening in my life. I know this term would be a lucky one. I can feel it. Can you feel it too? :)

Wish #8: A Laptop Bag

I've been wanting this for a long time now. All the laptop bags that I saw are quite expensive for me. So I've decided that I'll just put it on my wishlist and hoping that someone who is generous enough would give me this as a birthday gift :P My laptop is 15inches so its not really hard to find a perfect laptop bag for it. The reason why I'm really lazy to bring my laptop in school is that I don't have a laptop bag. I can't always put my laptop inside my bag without anything to cover it. And its really hard for me to walk if there's a laptop at my back. I prefer to have a laptop bag with handle. :) I don't demand for any specific color. Any color would do but I like the color pink or brown :P

Debut Alert:
Yehey! Finally, we already had our pre prod just before I do this entry :) I already picked the clothes that I will be wearing. My room is so messed up a while ago because all my clothes were scattered around it. I also have a change outfit every 15 minutes to pick the best outfit for me. :) Luckily, we were able to decide 6 outfits that I would be wearing on my shoot.

I'll be having my pre debut shoot on Saturday at The Fort and a studio in Better Living Paranaque. Call time is at 6:30am. I feel like a real model =)) Goodluck to me!! I'm getting nervous now because I don't know what approach will I do during the shoot. But I believe that I can handle this. Let my spirit be alive on that day. Confidence is the key :) I'm vain. I'm a camwhore. I hope the shoot would be easy and fun :)

Wish #7: Bags for Life

I want a new bag on my birthday. I would love to have a new backpack or shoulder bag. I want to have a Roxy or Jansport backpack because their designs are super cute. Usually, I go to school with a backpack because I feel more comfortable with it. I could put everything there. I rarely use shoulder bags at school because my shoulders are easily hurt everytime I use it. I only use it if I don't have much things to bring, which is so unlikely to happen. =)) I want a shoulder bag that I could use everytime I go to mall. The shoulder bag that I have now is super big and I find it very odd to use when I'm at the mall because there's nothing much inside except for my wallet, cell phone, and perfume. :P Body bags would also be perfect for me because I can always match it with whatever I wear at school. :) I also want to have a party bag so everytime I'll go to parties I have my own one and I don't need to borrow anymore from my sister. :) I used to collect bags before but I stop now. I just ask my sister to give me the bags that she's not using anymore. =P

Wish #6: Clothes

Yes, I wish for more clothes. Since my school doesn't have uniform, I need to have lots of clothes. I would love to wear ukay-ukay clothes because they're trendy and cheap. =) I'm really "kuripot" everytime I buy clothes. I only buy clothes from expensive shops like Zara, Mango, Topshop, etc. if i have lots of money or my sister will treat me a shopping spree. I'm really not the fashionista type of girl. I only know a bit about fashion but I can mix and match my clothes well. I would always love to wear skinny jeans at school. Yes, I want a new skinny jeans. Any top would do except for statement tees because I'm really not a fan of it. :P I

I'll be having a general cleaning of my closet before my birthday. I think now is the time to give out to those who are in need my clothes that i'm not using anymore. Plus, I want to give my closet a new look. My closet now looks like a jungle. :P I want to organize everything. I'm stepping soon into a new stage of life so I better start doing simple things now. :) So to anyone who will give me clothes on my birthday, I would really aprreciate it. Hey, don't forget about my size. Hahaha. I'm not a skinny girl, but I'm not really fat. Chubby is the best word to describe me :P LOL :P

Wish #5: Ballet Flats

Next to Havaianas, Ballet Flats is the most comfortable shoes for me. Since flipflops are not allowed in school anymore, I need to collect more flats to go with my outfits. I love flats that comes in metallic color :) The ones in CMG and Schu are great and I find it elegant. I have several pairs now but it seems that they don't fit me anymore. So now, I'm including ballet flats on my wishlist. I don't care if its expensive or not, as long as it looks good and perfect on me. Flats could go with anything you wear. Whether you're wearing pants or palda, as long as you can mix and match your outfit with your flats, then definitely you'll look fabulous, :)

Buzz Alert:
I finally got my invitations today and I'm ready to give them out to my guests as soon as we finish printing the map and their names in the envelopes. Hopefully, we could finish doing it by the end of this week. :D I'll have my pre debut shoot on saturday and we haven't decided yet with our location :P I haven't even prepared yet the clothes that I would be using. Gaaah, help me. It's our midterms week. I don't know what to do now. :

1 month to go and hello womanhood! :)

Today is July 12, 2009 and it's a special day for me. But next month is gonna be more super duper special. August 12, 2009----the day I've been waiting for the past 17 years. Hoooraaaaayyyyy!!!! I'm 18 =) One month to go and I can't wait for it! That day is going to be the most important day of my life. Hello, adulthood. I'll stop being childish on that day. Everything would change. I promise. I'll transform myself:) I will forget all the bad things that happened into my life for the past 17 years. I already know the reasons why they happened and I've already paid the consequences for all the wrong things that I've done. :P

I want to do anything that I want before I turn 18. I want to do things that I've never tried before. Probably, diving into a cliff, and trying to take a sleeping pill. Hahahahaha. Stupid, I know but these are just the things that I want to do. :P I want to cherish every moment before I turn eighteen. I still have 30 days to do that. We're only young once, so we better grab every opportunity that comes to us. Unless, I'll be 17 again. hahahaha. I wish I could be 1 year old again. When everything seems to be so easy because all I know is to eat, play, and cry. Unlike now that I have to figure out a lot of things. So many issues to face. Too much drama. Too much love. :) Gaaaah, Drama Queen alert. I better stop now. I just love the feeling that I'll be 18 already in just a month. All I have to do now is wait, relax, and enjoy whatever life throws on me. :)

Oh, and I forgot to mention, I'm super excited too for my debut. Save the date, okay? :)

Wish #4: To stop being PARANOID--PRANING

Not to be praning anymore----- a wish that would definitely come true. I hurt a lot of people everytime I get praning. Especially YOU. You know who you are. Actually, this post is dedicated to you. I'm wishing it now. I don't want to be praning anymore. I'm getting tired of it. I feel so useless. I know I'm selfish, I think too much, I'm annoying. YOU always say that to me. I'm always like this ever since. And now, I want to change it. I'm not getting better at this. I tried to adjust and control my feelings, but I'm having hard time everytime I do it. Sorry if I cant give you time everytime we fight. Sorry if I always want things to happen according to what I want. I never listened to you. I'm always one-sided. I only believe what I want. I know, I'm always over-reacting. I'm sorry. :(

And now, as I turn eighteen in a couple of days, I want to change myself. I want to be more mature and responsible in every aspect of my life. This time, I would do it in the right way. It's not gonna be that easy but I'll take it one step a time. I'm doing this for myself. Thank you for making me realize my weaknesses. I have lots of it and I'm starting to figure it out. So there, I would really make this wish come true. :)

Saturday, July 11, 2009

I'm thinking about, letting it out. I wanna give in, I wanna go out.

Today is my first fitting at Drezee for my party dress. I find it funny because I get to fit first my party dress before my gown. :P Veejay just got my mesurements so I have to wait for at least 3 weeks before my first fitting. Anyway, I'm happy because I got the design that I want. Good Job! From the color of the dress, the design, the materials used, and how they made it, it just look so perfect:) But when I fit it, I'm not that comfortable at first because i find it loose and I can't see any curve. Hahaha. So I told them to adjust it a bit and I will have my next fitting next week. I had a hard time deciding on how long my dress would be. But then, after a long time of thinking and folding my dress, I've decided that it would be better if the length is above the knee because it looks better on me. =)

The only problem that I have now is my shoes and accessories that will blend on my dress. I don't want to accessorize myself too much. I would just buy a nice pair of earrings and probably a simple pair of shoes. :) I only have one month left and I'm realizing now that there are still so many things to do. Gaaah.

The Little Orange Shop

My brother and I met up with Veejay at his shop for him to get my measurements. I'm so excited about this! My game is over and I have no more time to lose weight. :P He told us that one month is enough for him to make my gown. I didn't bother to ask him what my measurements are. I really don't know if I was able to achieve my goal, which is to lose weight. : I've been hearing good comments from my friends that I look slimmer now but I can't seem to notice it everytime I look at myself. =)) Veejay didn't give us a definite time on when will I have my fitting. But he assured us that I will get my gown a week before my debut. So that'll give him 3 weeks to work on it.

The little orange shop---- this is how I describe Veejay's shop. I find it really cute. A little orange door in front and when you enter, fabulous dresses will welcome you. :) Veejay has been so nice to us from the very start. He's very friendly and funny. His designs are simple but classy. I know I made the right choice when I chose him to make my gown. And now, I'm really excited to fit it!! =)

Wish #3: A Michael Jackson and Jackson Five CD =)

JUST CALL MY NAME, AND I'LL BE THERE =)

SO BEAT IT, JUST BEAT IT

I never imagined that I would suddenly become a Michael Jackson fan. Like what I said in my other post, I was really affected by his death. His death scared me to death =)) I can't sleep right away because I'm always thinking that he might just appear in my room. :P

Anyway, I really want to have a collection of his CD for my birthday. I don't have time to buy one so I just included it in my wishlist. :) The songs of Jackson Five are so nice. MJ is so cute when he was young. =) The songs are very inspiring especially the song, I'll be there. I also like the songs You are not alone, Beat It, Rock with you, Ben, Thriller, and Billy Jean by MJ. Over the weekend, I've watched all the tributes given to him by the different artists whether here in the Philippines or in other countries. Jacko is loved by millions of people. So there, I would greatly appreciate if someone would give me this on my birthday. haha. I heard that Jacko's CD's are always out of stock. So if you see one, please grab it for me :)

3. Veejay Floresca will get my measurements on Saturday. Appointment is set at 10 am. I hope I look slimmer now compared to the last time he saw me. :)

Puy Talde, the photographer for my debut, sent me an email last night. He sent a file where I'm supposed to answer all the questions there. Its more like a slum book type questionaire. I suddenly remember my grade school days where I'm always excited everytime I get to have a new "autograph" book and I would let all my classmates to answer it =)) I'm not yet done answering it because I'm having a hard time to think of any answer. =)) You'll find out why because I would be sharing here the questions he asked me :P Look at the questions that I'm not answering yet.

Wish #2: A Chanel 2.55

It's the best bag in the world!!!!!!! =))

I put it on my second wish because its my dream bag! I never had any designer bags because my parents won't buy me one. I know that its also not a neccessity to have one. :P The only time that I will probably buy designer bags like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Chanel, Prada, etc. is when I'm working already. I also need to save a lot of money before I have this one. And buying designer bags is not my first priority once I get my first paycheck. :P

I'm pretty sure that I won't get this on my birthday. I'm not saying nor expecting that someone would buy me this. I just really want to include this on my wishlist. Unless, that person really loves me so much!!!! =)) This bag comes in different colors. But I prefer the black and silver. I'm not sure if there's a pink version of this. But if there is, I'll probably want it too. What adores me most in this bag is the chain. I find it really lovely.

I dont think there's a fake version of this bag. I haven't seen one yet. But if ever I see one, I wont buy it. Hahaha. This bag is really precious for me =)) So if ever I'm gonna have this in the future, I would grab the original one! :P

I lived it full and I lived it well, there's many tales I've lived to tell. I'm ready now, I'm ready now, I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing

My brother, sister and I went to the Philippine Navy Golf Club yesterday to finalize the food for my debut. My sister told me that the food is the least thing for me to worry about. I didn't have food tasting so I'm worried what the food tastes like. So we just had our merienda there and the food tastes good. I also had a nice view of the golf course. We planned to have a shoot there on the day of my debut once I arrived in the venue.

We also checked the Alano Hall, where the party is going to be held. It looks so plain when I saw it and I started to imagine what would it look like on the day of my debut. I just really want to make the place fabulous! I only need to count 6 saturdays before the day that I've been waiting for. I still can't believe that this is actually happening. I told myself before that instead of having a debut I'll just go out of the country. But change of plans, I realized that a debut only happens once in a lifetime. So I've decided to have it and I won't regret that whatever decisions I make about it. :D If my sister had it during her time, then I'm going to have it too :P It's a dream come true. :)

You know its thriller, thriller night

I finally got the actual copy of my invitation today! :) I don't know yet if I could start giving it out to my friends by next week because I still need to check it if there are some revisions. :) I really liked my invitation! =) I didn't conceptualize on it that much. I find it traditional but presented in an elegant way. :) I liked the combinations of colors that we used. It pretty much described mypersonality. =)

Moving On...

A bad news shocked the whole world today. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, died at the age of 50 due to cardiac arrest. I was never a fan of Michael Jackson, but I'm affected of his death. As I was preparing yesterday morning for school, I'm watching Umagang kay Ganda and the news is about him. The news said that MJ had a cardiac arrest at his home in California. I thought everything will be okay. I didn't paid much attention to it. When my sister and I are in the car already going to school, I tuned in the radio to Wave 89.1. They are giving Michael Jackson a tribute because he died already. I was really surprised when I heard this. I knew that this would be a shocking news to everyone. When I got into class, most of my classmates were talking about his death. When I got home, I watched CNN the whole afternoon because the news is about the death of MJ. I don't know why I suddenly became interested about his life. Like what I said, I never liked him as a singer. I find him weird because his skin color is so white. And it really really freaks me out. : I know his great and he has millions of fans all over the world. His song that I only know is Thriller. After I watched every news about him, I discovered a lot about his life. Even before I sleep last night, i'm still thinking about him. I know i'm affected. I'm sad. The whole world is sad. I just can't explain what I feel now.

Goodbye and Rest in Peace, Michael Jackson =) You will always be remembered.

Wish #1 : A Mac Book =)

Image from www.college.library.wisc.edu/.../MacBook.jpg
Yeah, I know its too much to ask for. =))

Mac Book is #1 in my wishlist for my birthday. Being materialistic is not good, but I really want this. The reason? I really don't know, I just like it. I find it really cool. =)

If I were to choose to have this instead of debut, I might really think hard about it. Hahaha. I have my own laptop, but I'm getting pissed on it every now and then. I don't want to force my parents to buy me this one because I already know what they would say. :P Mac book is different compared to other laptops. Its confusing but I know I can learn it. Oh well, I wish I could really save a lot of money so I could buy this on my own. Gaah, it'll take years before it happens. :P If a Genie would appear on my bed tonight and ask me for 3 wishes, this one would definitely be on the list. =))

Everytime I go inside a PowerMac store, I would always canvass the price of a MacBook. It really costs a lot of money. One MacBook could already pay my tuition fee for one term :)) Now I'm imagining that on the day of my birthday, I would open a box of gift and a Mac Book is inside! Hey, I think I would be the luckiest celebrant on that day! =))

Wish, take me by the hand and Wish

It's exactly 47 days before I turn eighteen. But I haven't thought yet of my 18 wishes for my birthday. It has been a tradition for me to make wishes everytime I turn a year older. Almost all of my wishes last year came true. Actually, I didn't expect some of them to happen. I know that life has given me so much =) Material things, personal wishes, happiness, good health, and achievement,I know I got all of them =)

I know its too much to ask for more to my parents. I already be having my dream debut. They've worked so hard just to give me this wonderful gift. I have everything a girl would ever ask for. Maybe I'm just really blessed to have a parents like them. Yeah, I know that we may have issues from time to time. But at the end of the day, I know I still got their back and I will always love them no matter what happens.

Anyway, like what I said, as part of my tradition, I would already start making my 18 wishes. This is actually the first time that I would blog it to share it with other people. I don't know if all of these wishes will come true. But who knows, in God's will, I would get all of them =)

Just check out my next post to know what's my Wish #1 =))

Today is where your book begins :)

First of all, I want to greet all the father's in the whole world today, a very happy father's Day! =) This is really their day and not last week. :P I got too excited so I greeted my dad in advance :) I hope they enjoyed their day with their loved ones :) We just had a simple lunch at home today and we went to church together :)

My dad finally saw all my preparations for my debut. He checked the draft of my invitations, my gown, and the map for the venue. He was shocked that we're almost done with the preparations and the only thing we need to finalize is the venue and the food. I think we're going there next week to finalize everything. I already emailed my brother the edited list of my guest list and my 18 roses,candles, and treasures. He needs to send it to Wink by tomorrow so they can send us again the second draft at the end of this week. Hopefully, I'll be starting to give out my invitations on the first week of July :)

I told my dad that I want him to give a speech on my debut. I want him to tell all my guests that I'm his favorite daughter because he always say it everytime :) Hahaha. I know that it would be really funny when gives out his speech. I remember when he gave his speech to my sister during her 18th birthday... " I'm not making a wish, but a command" hahaha its super laughtrip. I just want to watch video all over again :) Some people may think that my dad is really serious because he's a soldier. But I can say that he could be really kwela sometimes =)

I might go back again at Drezee on tuesday. I want to change the color of my dress. I'm really not sure if picked the right color yesterday. But for sure, I want it to be in shade of violet. I'm just not sure if the lighter or darker shade will suit the color of my skin. My brother and sister tol me that it would be nicer if I wear a dark color. Wah. I really don't know yet. Hopefully, I could finalize it by tuesday :)

Third Stop: Drezee Boutique

Finally our last stop! :) We started from Manila, then QC, and lastly, Makati :D We went to Drezee Boutique for my party dress on my debut. Drezee Boutique is the one who supplies dresses in Cinderella and other stores. The original plan is that I would just buy my party dress. But I really can't find a nice dress plus the prices are out of budget so we've decided that we would just consult the designer in Drezee to make a dress for me. We tried to consult Veejay first but his price is really high. Drezee is one of my options to make my debut gown before when I still want a ball gown. I've consulted with their designer before. The price he offered is cheap, but I didn't like his design. But when I opted for a long gown instead of a ball gown, I didn't consult them again and I just chose Veejay to make it.

When I went back there, the owner, Cherry Cariaga still remembered us. She asked us why we didn't push through with the ball gown. I told her that I would just wear a long gown because its more practical. I didn't just tell her whose making it. She told me that I should've let her know so she can have another design for me plus we can still negotiate with the price. But anyway, I would be needing their services for my party dress. We already saw a design and we just showed it to the designer. He sketched it for us. I liked the design so we've decided to go for it. I had my measurements taken already because I really don't think that I could still manage to lose weight =)) I had a hard time in choosing the color that I want. They suggested the color yellow but its really out of the color theme. The color of my long gown is fuchsia pink so I chose the color lilac for my party dress. I'll have my first fitting on July 11. I'll also be going back to Veejay on that day for him to get my measurements for my long gown :) Gaaaah! This is really is it :D

Second Stop: Dapitan Arcade

It was my first time to tour around Manila and I was so amazed with all the places that I saw including schools like UST and FEU because I haven't been there yet. =) Yeah I know, I'm such a loser. :P I didn't notice that we already crossed the boundary of Manila and Quezon City. I'm really not familiar with QC. If you would leave me there, I assure you that I won't be able to go home unless someone would give me a ride until MRT :P Anyway, after Dangwa, we went to Dapitan Arcade. I thought Dapitan is a vacation place. I didn't know that there is this another Dapitan place in the boundary of Manila and QC.

Dapitan Arcade is like Divisoria, minus the clothes. Its more of home furnitures. The prices are cheap and less people are going there. We went there to buy votive candles that we would be using for the tables. Luckily, we were able to find some cheap ones. :)

First Stop: Dangwa

My brother, sister and I went back to Dangwa to finalize my flower arrangment. It feels good to be walking again around Dangwa. The flowers there just amazed me so much. I remember that last time we were there,we got caught by a cop. =))

I already know where we would be getting my flowers. Because the first time we went there, we already canvassed the prices. We went back to this flower shop and its so funny because the guy that we talked to still remembered the prices that he gave us for the flowers that we will order. The prices are so cheap and he still gave us a big discount for all the flowers! :) So there we finalized the flowers that we will be using for the tables and we ordered another set of flowers for the stage, my 18 roses, and my boquet. :D

The guy also toured us around Dangwa to show us where he would be getting the flowers and so we could also choose the color that we like. Basically, the color of all the flowers comes in shades of pink except for the flowers in the tables :) We would be using 4 different kinds of flowers and these are my favorites ones! :D

If I just breathe, let it fill the space in between...I'll know everything is alright

I'm already starting to invite my friends for my debut. I'm happy that I'm getting good responses from them. I really hope that all of them could make it :) I really appreciate their concerns for helping with my preparations. I was really touched. :) It seems that all of them are very excited for me. :)

I'm starting to wonder what life has to offer me as I turn eighteen. I know for sure that a lot of things will change and I'm preparing myself for that. Its another chapter in my life. :) Like what I always say, things has not been easy for the past few months. Luckily, I was able to surpassed it all. I hope to changed everything that happened to me on my 18th birthday. I realized that its time to let go of some things in my life. One thing I learned from the past, I chose to remain true to myself. I'm the only one who knows what I truly feel. =)

I'm taking it one day at time. I know that its not gonna be that easy but I have faith in myself and the people around me. Sorry if some people might not understand what I mean. I just can't say it all here. :) But I'm very happy and blessed right now... things are supposed to be this way =)

Its not the same as yesterday...

Yesterday was a different story... I know that things do happen for a reason. I tried to weigh those reasons but it seems that I just can't figure it out.

I had a good day today. I spent the whole afternoon with Raizza and Raych. We chilled at Starbucks. We spent an hour there to talk about how crazy I was when it comes to certain things. Hahaha. It feels good to update to other people whats happening in my life. :) We went to Harisson Plaza after to check out the Ukayukay there. My friends told me that there are lots of good stuffs there. I was so amazed because the prices are so cheap and all the clothes are still in good condition. I only had a hard time checking every rack to pick the clothes that will suit me :P I bought 2 clothes and it only cost me 240 pesos. :) I'm planning to go there every week to check their new arrivals. =)

I'm trying to fight with this. But I'm glad that the two of them made me happy today! :) I'm excited for tomorrow because we're going back to Dangwa to finalize the flower arrangement for my debut =) Yay!

Wednesday, June 17, 2009

Coz its too late..there's no escape...might as well face it :)

I really don't like it when people put too much pressure on me. Come on, I have other priorities other than my debut. I'm not saying that I don't give a damn care about my celebration. Its just that, some people should learn to understand me and take into consideration that I also need to focus on my studies. I'm not mad, I'm just really pissed. You always remind me everynight about the things that I need to do. I want you to know that its already stucked in my head and you don't need to repeat it. Please don't put too much pressure on me. I know my part here and I'm doing it whenever I have free time. Don't think that I'm not exerting any effort at all. I'm not in a hurry to finish all the preparations. This week has been very busy for me. I promise myself that I will accomplih everything by weekend. Just give me time, and I'll give you what you want. I think that you're more excited than me. Chill dude. Relax =) I'm very happy today and please don't ruin it. :)

Being PARANOID is my hatest feeling. Yeah, i get to hurt a lot of people everytime I get paranoid. I think too much. As much as I try to fight with it, I really can't help myself. Oh please help me GOD. :(

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I finally got the first draft of my invitation today! :) My brother was so excited to show it to me! I got excited too when he's already opening his email. And when I finally saw it.... BOOM! This is really it! It was pretty cool. I liked the layout and the combination of colors. =) I got more excited to give it to my guests. But unfortunately, i can't do it yet because its just a draft and I need to edit a lot of things. I'm removing some from my 18 candles and roses because they told me that they can't make it :( I got sad at first but I understand their reasons. I need to finalize it by the end of this week. There's lot of things to do in school but I really need to practice my time management to maximize all the things that I need to accomplished. :)

My college friends and I had lunch toay and we've decided that they're going to have a production number on my debut! Yehey! I know that this is going to be fun. I told my parents about it and they're also excited. My friend would also be bringing his band to perform. I heard good reviews from my friends about their performance so I guess they will surely make my night fantabulous! :) It's exactly 60 days before my debut and I'm really really excited! =)

Sunday, June 14, 2009

Take me as I am :)

June 14, 2009

I thought that it was Father's day today... The first thing I did today is to greet my Dad. Hahaha! He was surprise when I told him "Happy Father's Day Papa!".Then my sister told me that today is not Father's Day. I was shocked to know this because from what I know, Father's Day always fall the day after my Dad's birthday. :)) So my dad just laughed at me and told me I was too excited to greet him :P

Today is actually a good day. :) My brother, sister, and I went again to another Bridal Expo at the World Trade Center. My debut party is getting more exciting. Expect a lot of suprises on that night. So my guests should better come and see it :) Almost everything is already finalized :) I can't say what really happened today because its really a big secret. Only the three of us knows about it :) We really want my guests to be surprise!

I'm looking forward for my 3 pre-debut shoots by July :) I'm excited for Veejay to get my measurements! I'm excited to make my AVP. I'm really really excited for August 15, 2009 :)

Wednesday, June 10, 2009

He turns 60 :)

A TRIBUTE TO MY PAPA =)
You're the best Dad for me! You never failed to show us how you love us so much. Thank you for everything you've done for us, especially for me. Thank you for all the sacrifices. Thank you for being a great Mother and Father at the same time to us. I'm sorry for all the times that I hurt you. Even though I'm not really vocal in showing how special you are to me, I want you to know that you're one of the most important thing in my life. I know I really don't say this in front of you, but I want you to know that I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. And I'll always be your bunso and favorite daughter :) I love you Papa, Happy Birthday! :)




Happy 60th Birthday Papa! =)


He celebrated it yesterday, June 13 which is his actual birthday :) Hello Senior Citizen! Hehehe :) We gave him a big birthday party at our house :) It feels like he's having a debut again :) We invited our relatives and his close friends to celebrate with us :) I can see that Papa is very happy with the outcome of the party :) He really had fun! The food is really great because I got tired of eating :) Its also the time that I got to bond with my tita's and tito's and with my pamangkins. I hope that everyone enjoyed the party. I really like when there's lot of people in our house. I don't know why, but I'm just happy everytime it happens. :P

What should I be doing?

I'm bored again. I have nothing to do. I'm not sick anymore but they still won't allow me to go out of the house. I'm supposed to have lunch with my friends today at Grennbelt but I cancelled it. :( Definitely, I would miss the fun. Arrgh :(

What should I be doing now? I'll create a list of the things that I should accomplish in the remaining days of my vacation. My classes starts again in 3 days! Yay, I'm so excited! :)

1. Buy the book Future Shock by Alvin Toffler. Its for my Commtech class. My prof told me that its not an easy reading, but I'll give it a shot. :) I might also check my other choice of book at the school library next week. I better start reading now because the deadline of our book report is on our 6th meeting.

2. Prepare for my Dad's party on Saturday. :) Its his 60th birthday so we're throwing a birthday bash for him :) He really deserves it! :) I'm pretty excited for it. I'll buy him a cake. Its already my contribution for the party. Maybe he should also make a blog like this. Hahaha. Confessions of a Senior Citizen. *kidding* :P

3. Finalize our presentation for PUBLIRE class. :) I'm done with the interview.So my groupmates and I just have to meet again to plan for our presentation :)

4. Clean my room! I really want to do this for a long time now. But I'm really lazy :(

5. Fix my debut :) I'm done with guest list but there are a lot things that I still need to do. We're attending a bridal fair on Sunday for my souvenir and dessert bar. Yay!:)

That's all for now... I really hope I could accomplish all of this! goodluck to me! :)

Recall... Day 3 of Self Quarantine :)

My feeling is better than yesterday :) I felt that I was stronger compared to the past few days. I can eat well now and I'm more relaxed. I spent the whole day in our house. I just surfed the net, watched tv, eat, and sleep. These are the things that I've been doing whenever I'm home. As much as I want to go outside, my parents won't allow me because I might spread the virus. They're very paranoid like me. I know for sure that I don't have A(h1n1). We're supposed to consult a doctor today but I've decided not to go because I'm feeling better. :) But still, I didn't go with them at the mall and I wasn't able to attend mass. :(

I'm excited to have school again. But I still need to wait for one more week. I miss my friends. I miss everyone. :(

Recall... Day 2 of Self Quarantine :)


I'm feeling better, though i still have fever and cough. I ate my breakfast in my room because I don't have the strength to stand and walk. I'm lucky to have a Lola who always takes care of me everytime I get sick. She never failed to check me every hour and remind me when its time to drink my medicine. She's already old but I think she's stronger than me this time. :) My sister didn't go to work today because she needs to fix some papers. I thought I would be able to come with her because we already planned that we're going to have a sister bonding when she gets back. Its very wrong timing that I got sick. So I just I bonded again with my bed the whole day. I just quickly checked my email in the afternoon to get some updates.

I don't know what will happen to us next week. I'm pretty sure that there would be a lot of catching up. Its very hard for my school because we're following a trimestral system. 1 week of not having classes is a big thing for us. I'm really worried about my major subjects because I only meet some of them once a week. So we're very very late. I think I would be attending a lot of make-up classes this time. I really need to work extra hard. :) I have a goal this term. Its my last school year in DLSU, so i better make the most out of it. There's no room for any mistakes now, all I have to do is strive for the best. :)

My 18th

I'm proud to say that I'm finally done with my guest list! :) I already have the list of my 18 candles, treasures, cheers, and roses. :) Last night, I've decided that I will have my 18 roses. I thought I wouldn't be able to complete the list, but I did, with the help of some friends. It was very surprising to know that I actually have a lot of guy friends. Hehehe. I'm really hoping that all those people who are invited will come. I find it hard to choose from my friends on who's going to be part of my 18 treasures, candles, and cheers. I don't know why, but I really had a hard time doing it. It took me 2 days to finalize it.
My brother and sister will meet the stylist for the event tomorrow. I'm supposed to come with them but I changed my mind. So far, we're still on track for my debut. Like what I always say, each day is getting more exciting. :) I can't wait! :D

Friday, June 5, 2009

Recall :)

I'd like to share with you what happened to me for the past 3 days when I had my self-quarantine in our house. :P When I heard the news Wednesday afternoon, I thought it was just a joke. I got a txt message from my friend telling me that there's already a confirmed A(h1n1) case in our school. She said that there will be a campuse closure from June 04-June 15. Classes will resume on June 15. I was already on my way home when I got the news. I wanted to go back to school to really confirm it, but I can't because of the heavy rains and I might just get stuck on traffic on my way back. Then I watched the GMA News Flash Report while I was on the bus... right there and then I panicked. I didn't expect it to happen. When I got home, I'm not feeling well already and my cough got worst. I slept early that night hoping that I would be okay the next day. I'm really scared that I might get the virus. :(

Day 1 of my self-quarantine

The school advised all the students to have self-quarantine in their respective houses. My parents didn't allow me to go out of the house. When I woke up, I'm still not feeling well. I already have a fever. I'm really feeling weak. So I just bonded with my bed the whole day. All the people in our house suspected that I might have the virus. They're all very scared. I got paranoid too because I thought I already have h1n1. I really don't know what to do. My dad always calls me to check how i'm feeling. My brother bought me cup noodles and juices. My friends txted me to get well soon. I'm very thankful to all those people who showed their concern. You know who you are. :) At that moment, I know that I need to get my strength back.

I slept early that night. I got a txt message from my sister asking me how I'm feeling. She's arriving that night from her trip to Macau. As much as I want to fetch her at the airport, I can't because of my condition. So my brother picked her up... she woke me up when she arrived at the house. I was so thrilled to see her again. I missed her so much. My feeling got better when she arrived. Must be my excitement for her pasalubongs. Hahaha. She bought me lots of clothes there :) She also bought me a new wallet from MNG plus a Roxy bag and T-shirt. I'm so happy with all of it! :) Then we looked at her photos and I think she really enjoyed her stay there. :) She told me that she also needs to self-quarantine because she went out of the country. I think Macau also has suspected cases of h1n1. :P

Touch My Hand

LSS mode. Hahaha. This song keeps playing on my mind from the moment I wake up until now. I would actually use this song on my debut. :) Its Touch My Hand by David Archuleta. :) It's very relaxing to hear. I'd like to share with you some parts of the song...

Saw you from the distance,
Saw you from the stage,
Something 'bout the look in your eyes,
Something 'bout your beautiful face,
In a sea of people,
There was only you,
I never knew what this song was about,
But suddenly now I do,

Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
Reach out as far as you can,
Only me, only you, and the band,
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,

Can't let the music stop,
Can't let this feeling end,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never see you again,

Can't let the music stop,
Until I touch your hand,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never get the chance again,
I'll never get the chance again,
I'll never get the chance again,

I see the sparkle of a million flashlights,
I wonder why all the the stars,
But the one that's shining out so bright,
Is the one right where you are,

Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
Reach out as far as you can,
Only me, only you, and the band,
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,

I am so back!

Finally! I'm back! I'm feeling better now. :) I'm taking it one day at time to get my strength back. I still feel weak everytime I walk. My fever is gone, but my cough and flu is still there. But I'm proud to say that I'm h1n1 FREE. =) So my friends don't need to worry about me when I get to see them this week. :) My dad told to me to quarantine myself for a week because I might spread the virus. Hahaha. But no one can stop me, I just really need to get out of our house. I'm really getting bored there. :( I miss my friends, I miss everyone outside. :)

We're back on track for the preparations for my debut. We finally found someone who could design the place. :) The concept and the price is pretty good, so I think we might get it already. :) Yay! It's getting more exciting each day!! :)

I couldn't think of anything else to say... thats all for now... :)

SICK =(


I'm sick =( I have cough, fever and flu. Things aren't happening the way i thought they would. I don't have any new upates for my debut. My brother is out of town so we have no plans this weekend. Our classes were suspended until the 14th. So I have one week to stay at home and get some rest. Hopefully, I get to finalize already my guest list by next week. :)

We finally found a photographer and videographer for my debut. I don't know the full details about it because I havent talked yet to my brother. I just checked it online and the photos and videos were so great. I think I'll be having my pre-debut shoot by July. Gaah, I'm so excited about it! :)

I hope everything will fall into its right place this time. The past few months had been pretty hard for me. It came to a point where I thought this debut wouldn't happen anymore. I know its my fault. I can't say here what really happened. But upto now, I still don't regret the actions that I've done that time.

I'm happy again now... I hope it'll stay this way. :)

ONE MONTH =)

Save the date! 76 days to go! =)

My brother picked me up at school this afternoon after his appointment at WINK. He went there for the layout of my invites. And he's pressuring me again to finalize my guest list. He already gave me deadline. I have to finalize at the end of the week. Gaaah. So there, went to Veejay Floresca afterwards and we've finally decided on the color of my gown. It's fuchsia pink :) He showed me some color swatches and its the only shade of pink that is available for the material that he will use for my gown. I think that it also suits my skin tone. :P And I would like to request all my guests for my debut not to wear pink on that night. I hope they'll understand me :)

I thought he would get my measurments today but he re-scheduled it again next month. Maybe he had the feeling that I was really trying my very best to lose weight =)) He told me that if he get my measurements today, and i'm still planning to lose weight... it would be better if he get it next month. Well at least, during my fitting, there would be only minimal adjustments =)) I have ONE MONTH to lose weight. :)) Oh help me. I really need to do it. I promised myself that from now on I would practice after six. No more meals from 7pm until breakfast next day. :) Goodluck to me!

I'm so happy because Veejay gave me his original sketch of my gown. I would like to have it as a souvenir. :) I also asked him some suggestions on the color of my shoes for the gown and the head dress that I could use. :) He also referred a make-up artist to us. :) He has been so nice to us from the very start. He is very bubbly :) I really like him! hahaha :))

As much I would like to share some photos here, I don't have any yet. I promise to share as soon as I have one. :)

Shoot. Shoot. Shoot.

Save the date! 77 days to go! :)

Today, we planned about my photo and video coverage. We have a lot of choices to pick from, but then again, we have to consider first our budget. The packages of the photo and video coverage that I saw were pretty good. The pre-debut photoshoot is already included on it plus i get to have a coffee table book. :) Of course, I really want my photo and video coverage to be really perfect. I want all my guests to look very fabulous on their photo. I'm pretty excited about the pre-debut photoshoot that I'm going to have with my brother and his friend. They'll be my photographer. I don't know yet if it would be on a studio or outdoors. But I think an outdoor shoot is pretty cool. :)

I've already decided on the color of my gown. Its pink, but i don't know the exact shade of pink that I want. I just saw it in a magazine so I'll just bring it tomorrow for Veejay to see. Gaaah! I'm so excited for tomorrow! :) I'll keep you posted! =)

Cancelled =(


Save the date! 78 days to go! =)

Veejay Floresca, the one who will make my gown, is supposed to get my measurements today. I'm really excited about it because I really liked the long gown he designed for me :) He told me that he would really make me fabulous on that night! Our appointment with him is supposed to be at 2pm. Unfortunately, this morning, around 10 am, I got a txt from him asking me if we could re-schedule our appointment because he needs to be at the hotel at 1pm for a debut. I asked my brother about it and he told me that we would just re schedule it on Monday. :) So all our plans was cancelled today. We're also supposed to go to WINK, the one who will make my invitations. We didn't go because i'm not yet done in finalizing my guest list :P

We also made a budget plan to make sure that all things are on track. I've finally decided that I'm sponsoring my shoes =)) So now, I would really save some money to buy a fabulous shoes that would match my long gown. I'm still thinking if I should also pay for my hair and make-up but I think it would already depend on how much money I could save. I'll start saving on Monday. :P

The Dangwa Experience :)

Save the date! 79 days to go! =)
My brother picked me up today at school after my 11 am class. We went to Dangwa after to look for florists who will arrange the flowers for the centerpiece of the tables and for my backdrop. Still no design for the venue :( We're hoping to find someone who could design it by sticking on our budget. :P
We had a very funny experience today =)) My brother and I are not familiar with Dangwa. I thought he knew it but when we get near UST, we're kind of lost already. From what I know, Dangwa is just near UST. Since we don't know where were going, we asked some people on the streets for directions. Their instructions were kind of confusing for me. So my brother just followed what they said..and when we reach the main road.. BOOM! 2 policemen stopped us. We got caught by them because the street pala that we passed through is one way. We didn't know it and the people that we asked didn't tell us also. My brother was the one who talked to the policemen that we're really lost and he just made up some stories for them to let us go. So the policemen just looked at his license and let us go. They told us that next time, we should be aware of the signs on the streets. I was laughing so hard because Dangwa is already in front us when we got caught by the police. =)) Pag minalas ka nga naman =))
I was really amazed with what I saw! Wow! Flowers everywhere! :D I got more excited to pick the flowers that I want for my party. I want Callalily, Roses, Gerbera, or Carnation. =) I also want Star Gazer, but the price will only kill my budget. :P We went to different shops and canvass the prices that they offered us for my flowers. The prices were kinda cheap compared to the Bridal Fair that we went to. I think most of the flowers there are from Baguio, especially the Roses. It was really cute because it comes in different colors. Amazing! :P Its really good to shop for flowers there. No wonder when its Valentines or All Saint's Day, a lot of people are going there.
Finally, we've already decided on my flower arrangement. I think we're getting the shop who offered us the cheapest amount. Well based on my observation, their flowers were really good and the decoration is okay. The only thing that I'm not decided on is what flowers will I use for the centerpiece of the tables. I have two choices, which is Roses or Callalily. But since Callalily is really my favorite flower, I probably might get it :)

Confessions of a Debutante:)

Confessions of a Debutante
Sounds like Confessions of a Shopaholic? The movie actually inspired me to come up with this title. Its really a perfect timing for me to create a blog for my debut. This blogsite will contain my daily entries about my preparations and my confessions for my upcoming debut. :) Hope you like it! :)


Today is exactly 80 days before my big day. Oh yes, I'm turning 18 on August 12, 2009. I'm really excited about it. :) Each day is getting more exciting because of all the preparations. Finally, I'm having my dream night in a couple of months. I just can't imagine how life has been for me for the past 17 years. My borther, sister and I just started the actual preparation 2 weeks ago. Every night, we always have a meeting to talk about our plans. I'm really thankful because my brother is actually the one who's taking in charge of everything. The only thing that I need to do is my guest list, which until now, i haven't finalize yet. :P

My brother and sister went to the venue today. I wasn't able to come with them because I have class till 6 pm. Sayang :( They went there to come up with an idea for the design of the venue. We have plans but we're not sure yet if we'll push through with it because of our tight budget. :P I'm pretty lost while they're explaining their plans to me. Hahaha. The only thing that they finalized was the food. :) Well I really hope that it tastes good! :)

My brother suggested one song for my AVP on my party. It's Touch my Hand by David Archuleta. I listened to it and I liked it! :) Hooray! I already have 6 songs for my AVP. :) Well I'm actually planning to have 3 AVP'S on that night. :)

Actually, I don't have a theme for my party and I can't think of a unique one. I just want it to be simple and elegant. :D

So there, a very busy night indeed. But I'm glad that everything is on track. :)
