After some site dilemmas I finally had my portfolio transferred wix. It's a flash site - I hate flash sites. They load very slowly when the site has a lot of photos! but wix is probably the most user-friendly site that I know when it comes to personalizing lay-outs and such so I gave it another go. I hosted my portfolio there before...

So today I compiled a few of my photos that I'll be putting up on my site and just wanted to share my favorites!Btw, I've been looking for a nice horizontal scrolling template for any free blogging/portfolio site (blogger, tumblr, etc) because I...

because we love to eat and explore the wonders of Asian cuisine, we gave Tamarind a try. It's a thai restaurant than opened a few months ago which I find to be very, visually, inviting. So with our hungry selves and craving for anything spicy, we went there earlier this day. The place was cozy. I was expecting more costumers but it was...

shameless self portrait. I guess there's really nothing else but boredom that inspired me to do this. This is Terry Richardson in colored. He's my peg for the over-exposed photos. I felt a little pang of hurt when I saw my photos too bright but for Terry, okay, I'll do it. btw, I edited the photos on my laptop and the brightness was on...

Little shoot with Yaniee. We were supposed to do something that has guns and smokes but there was a gun ban in Iloilo so this happened. It really pays when you have a friend who has a closet full of pretty clothes!!! Thanks again Rhon for the accommodating us! :D ...

My bestfriend from Iloilo was in Talisay City (Negros Occidental) for a work-related seminar and on her last day, we gave her a little tour of the place. Well, when you're in Talisay, you've got to see the Ruins. The mini-mansion was a husband's tribute for his lovely wife. A gift that would hopefully signify his love. During the Japanese occupation, the Americans...

Finally done renovating my home in Sim Social!!! I've been so inspired look at photos from different Sim Social-related sites that I opted to have a theme for my house. I don't like having messy rooms with hodge podge of things in it. Thankfully the Japan-week came in just the right timing!!! A lot of the stuff really fitted well in my home. :D I'm...

A friend from Manila went home to Bacolod last night so we arranged to dine with her and I suggested to go to a Korean Restaurant! My other friend, Metz, whom I dub as a pseudo-Korean (because of her K bf) was very thoughtful enough to be our eonnie/older sister and taught us how to eat this and that. She was making hungit (what's...

Hello! Didn't go home for All Soul's Day to save on boat fare and I'm not sure if CJ's do something during undas. Anyway, here are photos from Cambridge American Cemetery from last year. It was located on a hill overlooking the rest of Cambridge up to Ely. Duxford had a big role during the war for war planes in England where mostly (if...

Drove around the city running errands with CJ and his friend then brought the little monkey for his first deworming. Thank god he's not that byahilo unlike Murlock who would have thrown up in just 30 minutes max. Meet Hachi! Our one-month-old German Shepherd puppy. Yes, we named him after the movie, Hachiko ...

Lovely photos of Reese Ungson by her friend  Fatimah FranciaView their original set here I found Reese's blog a couple of months ago and just love how beutifully natural her photos are! Not to mention incredible lighting!!! I wish I could dress-up like what she does but meh, my fashion sense isn't that fah-shown!  Anyway, I asked her if I could colorize some of her photos and...

Went home to Iloilo to get my papers. I'm applying for a work in Bacolod! FINALLY! But it wasn't just a trip home for me. It was more of an internet detox. We didn't have an internet connection there and I have a rough time finding out how I'm such a slave for the internet. It was cool anyway because I get to...

Electric Masskara is a part of Bacolod's annual festival where dancers are donned in anything flashy and catchy. This year, it highlighted the closing of Lacson Street aka Bacolod's commercial strip for merry making. But before heading the the event, CJ and I dropped by Bacolod' New Government center aka the city's little white house to watch the installed art works on the establishment's...

Few more photos from my shoot with my model friend, Yaniee, and balikbayan, Jenny. I felt in love with Selena G's new song and I was basically listening to it on loop while editing the photos. Went a little playful here. so this is an attack of textures! :) ...

I just turned 23 last Saturday!!! Yes I'm that old! People would still think I'm 15 or worse, 12 but that's a good thing than be perceived being older than your actual age :) Jenny and Yaniee took these photos during our mini photoshoot. I asked them to take photos of me (how ambitious am I thinking I'm photogenic though I'm not) because...

My dear friend Jenny was home for a week from the UK so we scheduled a mini shoot with Yaniee! These are all whimsical ideas and I'm so glad that we've done around three sets that day! This is an ode to those who live to procrastinate. If you can finish it tomorrow, why finish it now? :)) Not saying that procrastinating is...

  While browsing for new photography apps this afternoon, I got curious with WeicoGIF. The descriptions were in Chinese characters and I had a few Chinese photography apps before that were really, really good so I tried it. Also, it was for free!!! So what's in the app? When you open it, it shows a large live view of the camera. You can...

Surprisingly, they joined me until the movie was finished. oh hello, young Megan Fox! We then watched The Devil Wears Prada and about 1/8th of Julie and Julia (I just...

I hate this day. Prioritized things that I shouldn't be bothering and I had to postpone a shoot for the 3rd time :| Not sure if this is because I'm getting anxious with my IV Therapy completion duty this Wednesday (will prick veins the whole day) or that my body is still too tired since I was up for 30 hours yesterday. I...

I love going to airports, especially that in both Iloilo and Bacolod, they are built away from the city. This weekend we sent my boyfriend's parents as they went off to Manila, then later in the evening to London. It was a gloomy yet beautiful afternoon. Nobody in the family cried but the skies did and within a snap, things went back to...

   Mom and Peter went to Canada last month to pay my aunts and cousins a visit and to see the place as well. Mom sent me their photos and I was melting in jealousy when I was viewing each in full screen. I wish I was there in the photos, in between the sweet smiles of my cousins. I was very sad...
