Thanks to a good friend, I am now back in taking pictures. I’ve been on a hiatus because I lacked inspiration and ideas. I mean, I dont lug around my camera all the time. I don’t take pics just to take pics. I have my p&s digicam for that. And the fact na ang bigat ng bag ko, I got tired of bringing it once in a while. Haha.

I for one love taking pictures of people. I am not good with landscape images. Parang it’s too common and almost every picture gallery I check, ang daming landscapes, seascapes and cityscape images full of travels. Don’t get me wrong, I loooove looking at those images and hindi madaling kumuha ng landscapes. It’s tedious and I think it entails real creativity.

Why I love taking pictures of people? One word – EXPRESSION. Iba iba kasi eh. Parang each person has his/her own interpretation of something. It’s amazing. Have this concept in mind already, just a matter of how I will pull it off. Will share this once I have started.

Now, I want that prime lens. Wohoo.

Registration hohum

Natatawa ako sa mga tao prior to the end of the COMELEC registration. Cramming much? Ang daming oras para mag register tapos nakikipagsiksikan kayo nung last day and maghihingi kayo ng extension? C’mon! If you had the decency and the right mind, dapat matagal na kayo nagregister at hindi sa last day tapos magrereklamo kayo na hindi enough yung time?? What the eff were you thinking?

Happy birthday to you!! And to cap off her day, she giving away a ton of wonderful treats!!

What is your most prized possession?

My dSLR camera which I bought with my own money. It’s an investment for me since I can take pictures with it and capture amazing moments

What is your definition of beauty?

Beauty is something that you innately have and should come from within not only in its physical aspect.

What makeup item (Brand and name of product) would you recommend to me?

I recommend that you get the Guerlain Parure liquid foundation line. The brand carries an amazing line of liquid foundation that would suit your needs. Parure Extreme for heavy coverage (perfect for oily skin) and Parure Aqua perfect for dry skin (like me)

What is your favorite KIND of makeup item and why?

My favorite kind of makeup item is a cheek tint. It instantly gives off that glow even without foundation/powder on. It’s a great instant pick me up in days that you feel and look pale. J

A weird factoid about you. :B

I looove watching movies alone. It’s weird because people don’t like the idea but I find myself more concentrated in watching a film if I am not with anyone.

What is the fondest memory of your childhood?

Playing in the afternoon outside of our house with my neighbors

Describe yourself honestly.

I make people laugh effortlessly J

Register for 2010

happyskies — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 04:07:19 +0000

I believe that one person does not have the RIGHT to complain if he didnt even put an effort in registering for any given election period. Dba? Reklamo kayo ng reklamo, eh nagparegister at bumoto ba kayo?

Registering for the 2010 elections is one way wherein you can do something…you can do something to change our country’s course in the next 6 years.

Please please do register.

You have until Oct.31 2009.

shirts for me!

happyskies — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 06:07:58 +0000

Ok. I am too old for florals. Hahah. JUST Kidding! I love anything floral, colorful and comfy but sometimes, pretty dresses are had to pull off don’t you agree? And I dont believe that you have to feel pain just to look good. OA ang tawag dun at trying hard to fit in (IMO ok.)

With that, let me introduce American Apparel. This is the best, most durable and most comfortable brand of plain shirts ever. I love anything plain and just accessorize it with belts, long necklaces and vests.

Hahaha. Plain Jane.

Planning to get a couple of shirts for the Holidays (para saakin hahahaha!)

enter everyone!!! contest!!
