It's been a while since I last posted but I think our Vday date is a good comeback.<br />
<br />
We pretty much had an itinerary on this day. It was quite simple. Lunch, Paint and Dinner.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Lunch</b><br />
<br />
Well, we originally thought of having a hot, spicy, soupy lunch in Hokkaido Ramen in Glorietta. On our way though, we got interested with a new restaurant in Greenbelt. It's beside the Chateau 1771 restaurant. It's called Torch and they're on soft opening.<br />
<br />

<br />
We were the very first ones there on that day. The ambience is great. Their prominent feature is the plastic bamboo sticks. Their specialties are: Pizza, Steak and Sushi. Seems like a weird combination right? It seems one of those <i>chopseuy</i> restaurants. Like the "Jack of all foods, master of none" kind. Besides, those three are just way off unrelated and different that there is no way you can be a master of all those cooking techniques. Or is there?<br />
<br />
So we proceeded with ordering. We ordered their Truffle Fries, Gambas Pizza, Salpicao Steak, Volcano rolls and Torch's Signature Roll.<br />

The reason we risked trying is because Marvin is obsessed with steaks. Yes, he'll even go as far as Taft just to get good, cheap steaks. Considering the price range of Torch, I can say it is very affordable for group meals. And boy, the serving is big! We really thought we over ordered.<br />

Their Truffle Fries was good. It reminds me of homemade fries with just the right hint of truffle. We didn't eat much though because the Gambas Pizza came quickly. Kudos for fast service!<br />

The pizza was so big, we started asking ourselves, "Why order pizza if we're only two???" In the end, we took home what's left and there's still more of it. It was good, cheesy and spicy since they used green jalapenos. Marvin didn't like it as much because of the spice. But it was good for me! I love spicy food! In Marvin's words, "Can you stop liking things I don't like?" NO. Haha!<br />

Their signature roll is big. REALLY Big. those crunchies on the top taste like fried squid strips that's an addictive snack from Taiwan, I think. The taste though, I'm not a fan. I mean, I've tasted better sushi rolls but I guess that's their signature roll because of the size.<br />

Ugh! Heaven. I love this roll. It's sweet, mildly spicy and cheesy. The explosion of flavors in your mouth is just very good. Maybe that's why it's called a Volcano. Haha.<br />

You have a choice of mash potato or rice. We chose rice because we thought we were hungry enough to devour. And we were so wrong, even our hunger could not hold such amount of awesomeness. The presentation was very good. The marble plate was hoisted on four metal sticks and below it a candle is lit. So you can choose the wellness of your steak. Not that Marvin wants it well. He likes it rare.<br />
<br />
In general, we were satisfied that we think it's really worth going back. (We actually recommended Torch during one of their family lunches. Hihi.) Their big yet tasty serving definitely sold us. It's really ideal for <i>barkada</i>, family or after office meals. With regards to their specialty claims. I think they got two out of three right. I liked their Pizza and Steak (tho I'm no expert, Ask Marvin). The rolls, the Volcano Roll must be the best but for the other roll, I don't like it as much.<br />
<br />
Another bonus is that we got bottle of wine for free! Yey. They have a Valentine's Day Promo that if you spend at least Php 2,000.00 (no judging please), you get free wine.<br />

<br />
<i>What is life?</i><br />
<br />
Now, before you switch blogs, give me one more chance to speak my mind. Simply put, life, for me, is what you really want to do. It is not based on any outward force that pushes you to conform or to adapt. Instead, it is the internal bubble that wakes you to live another day, to struggle amidst hardships and to strive to achieve. It is not what makes you suffocate but that which makes you burst in joy. It is not based on religion but it has become your way of life, your personal devotion.<br />
<br />
<b>Finding it</b><br />
<br />
Upon reading the article, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/following-your-calling-vs-feeding-your-ego-2014-5">How To Tell If You're Following Your Calling Or Just Feeding Your Ego</a> by Jeff Haden, I realized that now is the time to face this question about <i>my</i> life.<br />
<br />
As a kid, I've always been an achiever, even if only in the personal sense. I was trained to always do my best and reap the rewards, or whatever is there, after. I was always told, "No", "Not enough", or "You can do better." You might think this post is anti-tiger mom or something of the sort. In fact, it is one of the things I'm thankful for because I learned a lot - hardwork, consistency and attitude. I even believe that my somewhat altruistic nature stemmed from this. I learned to reach high for the sky but remain rooted to the ground. In practical terms, I learned to be responsible and to value my family first. I learned to be realistic and to wait. Yes, to wait for the perfect timing of things.<br />
<br />
Right now, I am employed in one of the most reputable banks in the country. I undergo training to be a Relationship Manager of the bank. But is this what I really want to do? Working in the corporate setting has its perks and I love my workmates as well, but I fear that it is robbing me of precious time - to be free and to just let it go.<br />
<br />
Hence, when I finally reflected about the little things that make me happy - those that you'll skip meals for, I realized that I would want to venture into something creative and expressive. During my free hours, I am always found to be doing crafty activities like pouch making, accessory making or sewing. I feel that it has always been in me to create things, from origami in elementary to doll dresses and upcycled clothing today. Always aiming high, I dream of making it into the fashion industry, particularly in design and merchandising.<br />
<br />
<b>Fears and Tears</b><br />
<br />
Fashion is not an industry for the faint-hearted. Like any other "sales" industry, you should have the courage of the lion to face competitors (most frequently yourself) and the agility of the eagle to face the ever-changing tides.<br />
<br />
It is truly a fears-and-tears business. But more so, if you consider external conditions. In my case, the calling to provide for my family is more urgent. I am also plagued with my lack of skills and credentials which can only be solved by pursuing formal training.<br />
<br />
But even after resolving this, fear of failure often gets through me. I always fear failure. It is my weakness. Only thinking about it, makes me teary-eyed. The fear of never being good enough even if you have given your best is always devastating, whether it be in your career, spiritual or personal life.<br />
<br />
<b>Being Realistic</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Given that Fashion is what I would want to do, and that the circumstances seem to be less favorable, what would you do?<br />
<br />
<i>Family comes first. </i>I choose to postpone my efforts (at least those that would require financial outlay). For obvious reasons of helping out. But I assure you, I would never stop here. There will be more of me in the future, hopefully in the fashion scene.<br />
<br />
<i>There is time for everything</i>. I am a strong believer that when you want something, the universe conspires to make it happen. Patience. It will eventually come to me. I belive it.<br />
<br />
<i>On the bright side.</i> There are many things that could be gotten from this deferment. First, being able to have the capital by the time I'm ready. Fashion requires high investment, in skills and in materials as well. Second, in my current job, I will be able to learn the valuable skill of sales and networking which is undeniably important in the Fashion world.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Disclaimer</b><br />
<br />
I don't intend to influence anyone especially if you're having the same dilemna. Besides, if we go back to the first question, 'What is life?', it is meaningless if you don't approach it in a personal way. After all, it is only yourself who can define you.<br />
<br />

Before going straight to the task, we went to Breakfast at Antonio's for a GV breakfast. Since I was craving for pancakes I ordered their Golden Waffle and Hot Chocolate while Marvs ordered Salmon bread and Poached eggs with White Chocolate with Marshmallows.<br />

MORAL OF THE STORY: No matter how unusual and simple it is, as long as you do it with passion, people will start noticing you and appreciate what you do.

<br />
Just like how I met Marvin, My Love. When we met 5 months ago, I never thought that my world could get more colorful. Since it was Grad season, companies hold career days to recruit. It was in such that we meet. I approached and sat beside him to mingle a bit. Then, voila! We are now a young couple venturing the world together.<br />

I love how we can just be crazy and fun together, enjoying the simple things like MRT and car rides, Mondates, window shopping, groceries and errands and just chilling with our families. With him, every task is light and bearable. He always encourages me to do my best and telling me "<i>Kaya mo yan</i>!" As for him, I always try making him laugh. I love making him laugh. He is too serious about things (Marvs is kinda OC-OC). I feel special when I do that.<br />

My life has indeed become more colorful with him around. The things we experienced together are special and very memorable.<br />

Everybody's fave bonding time! I eat. A lot. But with him, I tasted variety (and ate a lot more. *Straight face*) World class taste test <i>daw</i> eh. Haha! He is a foodie who loves Japanese and Asian cuisine though he is not limited to that.<br />

There are so much more undocumented food escapades! Until randomly, we thought, "Hey! What if we make a foodie blog?" We actually thought of names like CORNgee, mix of corny (yessir, I am!) and congee (my ultimate craving at that time). But CORNgee fails to serve a greater purpose. You'll find it out soon!<br />

Marvin always take pictures. As in ALWAYS. Almost half on his album are candid shots. And he's always online. So if there are already nice pictures in his smartphone, he uploads it immediately on Facebook with matching Foursquare tags and all that! If you could see my Facebook wall, you'll mostly see "Marvin Singson Managhaya tagged you in...," "Marvin Singson Mananghaya said he was with you at....," etc...</div>

But more than our SABAW-ness, I love how we can also engage in intellectual discourse about serious things like the economy (our undergraduate courses are both Economics but he also has a degree in Finance), politics, gender inequality, idealism, education and a lot of things. It was refreshing for me because I can't always do that often to most people.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
But more than that, we were already planning for a more productive (in economic sense) venture together. We're building our<b> BUSINESS</b>! Watch out for more in the following days!</div>

After months of inactivity, I am making a comeback to write about my 3 awesome friends. (They are just awesome like that! And no, they are not morbid unlike what my title suggests.) Since we're gonna have another Reunion coming up, it's just high time to feature you, guys!<br />
<br />
I went to Quezon City Science (Quesci) in HS and met 3 lovely people.<br />

Joby is the saintliest (and <strike>weird</strike> err.. most unconventional ) person I know. She's a true friend who'll go to the moon with you. Ate Kim (yeah, we're close like sisters) is the most talented in music. She can play piano, guitar, violin and can sing too. Well, Joby can play the violin too and Ate Risa can play the piano (that leaves me, the only tone deaf in the group). Ate Risa is quiet and caring. She and Joby are the main reasons I got into anime.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We formed our little group during 3rd year in Quesci. We called ourselves P6. Stands for 6 P's we forgot about. Haha! We are the "not mainstream" group, never were and never will. I seem to yearn that kind of uncomplicated happy friendship in college where I found little success. Until now, we make it a point to bond once a year at least. But this year was one of the bests! we were able to see each other 3 times going 4! </div>

As her birthday is just around the corner, Ate Kim invited us to .... somewhere. We just found out where when we got there, crazy, right? Apparently, we were brought to the Seri's Fantasealand, to the Trick Art Museum and 3D viewing, just beside Manila Ocean Park. After the teasers, we now knew what the cameras are for. BEWARE: This is Photo-heavy. Enjoy!</div>

All of these pieces I own since time immemorial. Haha!:)) I think I was able to pull off a decent but nice outfit. After attending mass together, my mother, sister and I went to SM Fairview to shop.:)</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am planning to use my 1,500 worth of CHEMISTRY GCs I got from ACLE (See here: <a href="http://carmi-desu.blogspot.com/2011/08/novice-inspiration.html">http://carmi-desu.blogspot.com/2011/08/novice-inspiration.html</a>). The first time I tried to spend my GCs was in SM Annex but for some reason, they weren't accepted so, I went to SM Fairview next. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When we got there, the lady said that they accept GCs but since their system is down, they have to call first to ask. I was worried because we might not be able to use the GCs again. Good thing, they accepted and processed manually.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I waited for almost a year before using my GCs because having a tight budget, I see to it that I'll buy what I really need. Even if it took me so long to use my GCs, it wasn't my first time in Chemistry. I always pass by the shop to check all items and choose what I really like.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What I like about Chemistry stores is that they have a bright lighting unlike other stores with fluorescent lighting, you're not sure if the color of the item really looks good on you or the lighting is just nice.</div>

I chose these because of functionality, it can be used in corporate and casual settings. When I shop, I always get my sister at least one item. She's very <i>matampuhin</i>. Haha!<br />

<br /></div>
<div>
Chemistry is not only a his and her brand which often comes out very "matchy". In Chemistry, each piece has a connective thread with the other pieces, enough for mature couples (even singles) to express their style and inspiration. This makes them unique and a stand out from other brands. The prices are moderately affordable too. I'll surely come back for that denim vest I saw earlier. Haha!<br />

Thank you Chemistry! </div>

<span style="background-color: white;">After 3 days of hot beaches, it's time to get that summer cool and where could you get that? Where else but Baguio! Termed as the Philippines' Summer Capital, it's no surprise that this would be one place we couldn't miss. Aside from its cool temperature, Baguio is famous for its historical places and cultural landmarks.It's no wonder that even foreigners are drawn to the almost 8-hour drive from Manila and 4 hours from San Fabian just to experience the uniqueness of Baguio.</span></div>

It was my fist time to see the Lion's head. Since we don't have our own car and use only the public transportation, we don't pass through Kennon road. We also stopped by the Kennon Road viewpoint and the Ifugao Village.<br />

We had a unique Baguio experience. Instead of going to usual places like the Burnham Park, Mines View Park, etc.. We went straight to Philippine Military Academy (PMA). This is by the influence of Uncle Roger works for the US Navy (bongga!).<br />

PMA is the home to our young cadets where they train and develop. Aside from that, they have turned it to an educational place by putting up old models of tanks and artillery used in the World War 2. I also learned (from Uncle Roger) that the training grounds were located at Teacher's camp before moving to their present location. </div>

If you're wondering why I'm not wearing a jacket it's because it was hot. Weather patterns have changed much even in Baguio. Before, you always have to wear jackets all day. But not anymore. Still, it's cold in the afternoon and night.<br />
<br />
We had lunch at Rosebowl. It's a well recommended chinese restaurant especially for family gatherings. And the food was delish too! Unfortunately, we weren't able to take pictures. We attempted to go to Minesview Park but the crowd was just crazy! There were so many people, as in, shoulder-to-shoulder. Wild!<br />
<br />
After eating, we went to Teacher's camp to settle our lodgings. Then we went to the Bell Church. Here are some pictures.<br />

Uncle Roger is soooo cute! He's one of the funniest persons I know and who would have thought he works as the Combat Director for the US Navy? Looks can be deceiving, huh? No wonder why he and Aunt Mae are still very sweet to each other. Aunt Mae even call's him her boyfriend. Haha! Uncle Roger only answers with, "Ang hirap talaga maging alipin." :))<br />

The price for strawberry-picking is P500 per kilo per person. And we were like, "That's crazy! We can buy strawberries for only P300+ per kilo at the markets." I don't know about you but I'd rather buy strawberries at the market though strawberry-picking seems fun too.<br />

<br />
<i>Disclaimer: All photos were grabbed from Precious Bustmante</i><br />
<i><br /></i><br />
On the third day of vacay, my family said to me: 3 famous places, 2 hometowns and a "Let's go to Subic!"<br />
Hahaha! I know it's <i>pilit. </i>But that's the best way to sum up our escapades so far. We already visited the beach (<a href="http://carmi-desu.blogspot.com/2012/06/one-of-best-things.html">Read more</a>), the Capitol and the islands (<a href="http://carmi-desu.blogspot.com/2012/06/one-of-best-things-20.html">Read more</a>). Now, we're off to another place down south that represents a lot of histories (and maybe controversies as well) where else but Subic!<br />
<br />
Aside from Manila, one of the popular places to visit for the Northern people was Subic. It's very industrialized (Americanized to be more exact) and has various amenities, some of them not even in Manila. It's very impressive how Subic turned out from a refused and politically sensitive place to one of the major tourist spots in the country.<br />

It was a looooooooooooooong trip to Subic from our house in San Fabian. I never expected that to be soooooo long. Especially, now that there's SCTEX to make it easier. But still... It took us 6 hours! It was like a bus ride back home in Manila.<br />
<br />
We first stopped at Ocean Adventure. However, they find it too expensive (they have lots of marine life in US and Canada). <span style="background-color: white;">Oh well, we arrived lunchtime so we had our lunch at Gerry's grill.</span><br />

After lunch we shopped a bit at Puregold-Duty Free. We weren't able to take pictures because believe it or not, we were shopping for kitchen wares. Haha!:)) We also went to Nike factory outlet and we weren't able to take pictures as well. Darn!<br />
<br />
On our way home, we spotted this pretty sunset.<br />

More than the views we've visited and the buffets we ate, what really matters is the bonding we had with each other, the memories we shared, the laughs and even the complaints and comments we shared. Even if we go to popular places or beautiful landscapes, at the end of the day, what we will remember the most is the moments we spent with each other and how we made that place memorable for each of us.<br />
<br />
That's all for Day 3, 3 more to go!!<br />

Love, Carmi<br />

Day 2: Into the heart of Pangasinan (Alaminos and Lingayen), May 25<br />
<br />
<i>Credits: All photos were grabbed from Precious Bustamante.</i><br />
<br />
Often, when people discover where I spend my Christmas and Summer vacations, the first thing they ask is or rather, assume is "<i>(Edi) Nakapunta ka na sa Hundred Islands?" (So, you've been to hundred Islands?) </i>And I tell them with frustration, "<i>Di pa nga eh." (No, not yet.) </i>That's it. Goodbye. End of conversation.<br />
<br />
I, myself, wish that I could tell more about this place. This place is one of the Philippines prized tourist spots even before. It has been written down in history books as one of Pangasinan's pride. However, we have never visited it. It seems so near yet so far.<br />
<br />
Honestly, it is quite far. From our town, it's a pretty tough 2 hour drive not counting our visit to Lingayen.<br />
We swooped by the province's Capitol (sounds like Hunger Games, hehe!) to have a little bit of history. Here are some pictures.<br />

This Capitol hall was recognized having one of the best facades in the country. Even if they are the province's capital, they refused to officially be a chartered city because they wanted to preserve the culture and identity which can be lost once this happen.<br />
<br />
If the facade was wonderful, it is the same with the interior. We've seen a charming chandelier and an elegant staircase leading up to Gov. Espino's office. We were allowed to take pictures in his office.<br />

Another surprise from my cousins and sister is this identical sailor-inspired shirt from Penshoppe! We look like triplets. Actually, my sister and I look like we have couple shirts. Especially when we just randomly wear the same shirt again unintentionally (It happened 2 times already, one during our Pagudpud trip.). Haha!:)) I realized that my sister is too generous when she have money. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?Hmmm..<br />
<br />
If the structure and interior design was already satisfactory, the breathtaking view of the Lingayen gulf is even more refreshing.<br />

Kuya Eugene is one of the funniest guy I know. Wee're so glad to have him in our company because he never run out of funny gestures and jokes. He even made popular amongst us the "Amazing pose!" Even if Kuya Lyndon is not around, we were happy to meet a new friend in his person.<br />

The gulf is only a few jumps away and being a beach girl, I can't help but yearn to feel the water again. But time is constraint, we still have Alaminos to go to.<br />

We also visited the theatre near the Capitol. It has become the Cultural Center of the North, all cultural undertakings are done inside this hall.<br />

This guard is a plus-plus for me! We were pleasantly surprised that he talks and acts like a tourist guide. We had second thoughts if he really is a securit guard or a guide. He replied with pride that he only does all what he could do for Pangasinan. Be it a guard, a guide, an electrician, etc... He knows things even my Mom didn't know about being a true blue Pangasinanse. So proud of you, <i>Kuya! </i>Keep it up!<br />

One thing I like about the islands is that they are well-preserved. You can only land on 4 islands because they are the only ones with ports (you've already seen 100 islands by then). Even from afar, you can already see the thickness of the trees.<br />

Our first stop was the Governor's island. It deserves to be the named so because it really is THE island, why? It has the most amazing overview of most islands. But before that, you have to take 250 steps, steep steps, to be at the top.<br />

The water taste saltier than what I was accustomed to at a beach. It was also my first time snorkeling so, I was getting a feel of my snorkel still. We practiced a bit then we headed to the snorkeling place at Quezon Island. You can also snorkel here but it is more advisable if we are already expert divers or snorkelers because of the waves and depth.<br />
<br />
When we reached Quezon Island, we didn't waste time and we jumped off our boat to start snorkeling. I wasn't at all confident because water keep getting in my goggles that I cannot see. Until I saw a fish, it gave me the will to explore more and be with them. I was really excited about it!<br />

Yes, that's me having a second go at snorkeling! I loved the feeling of snorkeling. It's like you have a one-on-one date with nature wherein you have your own little world with what you see. There really isn't much to see but there's just this something that pulls me into doing it again and again. Maybe it's just the adventurous side of me or what but I really felt connected with the marine life then.</div>

After seeing most of Hundred Islands, at last, I can finally say something. If I could say anything about Hundred Islands it will be about how I thought it was a hundred times better before. Maybe I'll come off to you as somewhat a late bloomer in traveling because I have only visited this place recently. Maybe you don't find Alaminos as attractive as it was before. But I still write about it because the beauty I saw gave me an inspiration, maybe same with what you had a long time ago. </div>

If there are still people like me who still appreciate Hundred Islands despite its seemingly deterioration, there is still hope that this can change perceptions about the place and be united in working towards the betterment of this place. Let us not forget completely Hundred Islands. At least once again, revisit Alaminos and be more generous in contributing to this place.</div>

A close friend told me that at least every year, you have to go somewhere you haven't been before. Why? Why not, right? And so here I am, I did not miss the chance. I even skipped some days off my internship to have a <i>bakasyon engrande </i>(grand vacation).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And why did I call grand? Check this out.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We had 6 days to finish this itinerary: Pangasinan, Subic, Baguio, Ilocus Sur, Ilocos Norte</div>
<div>
What did we see there? Loads, beaches, churches, hotels, more beaches and churches.</div>

Day 1: My Birthday, May 24</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>Credits: All photos were grabbed from Precious Bustamante.:)</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know, I'm so lucky to have this vacay scheduled on my birthday.:) I really felt blessed that day and was able to bond with my relatives and with the wonderful places we've been to. On the first day, we went to PTA resort in San Fabian.</div>

My cousins and I are already close. We bond and talk often but it really is different when you visit places together. We have so much <i>kwentos </i>during the trips and lots of photo-bonding moments.:) Sadly, <i>Kuya </i>Lyndon wasn't able to come with us because of Nursing review. We missed him.:(<br />

My ultimate favorite place ever is by the beach. I love the calmness and at the same time the dynamism of the beach. The waves, the wind, the sand on my feet comes together as a perfect balance of nature. The beach for me teaches us a lesson. To be refreshed and calm just like the sea amidst the hotness and violence of the sun and wind.<br />

<br />
As what this entry title states, I am now shifting from the seemingly mundane topics about myself to things I really care about. After all, this is what a blog is for, to share to the world what you want them to know. And right now, I'm choosing to share what I really am.<br />
<br />
This whole post is asking me to reevaluate and reset my priorities. As I start yet another year (and, un/fortunately my last) in the university, I found myself at lost and confused of how I envision myself to be. Don't get me wrong, I still would want to have a career in the exciting fashion world but I realized that I have to start with the whys rather than the whats.<br />
<br />
Why? Simple, for the people I love. For my mom, who always want to provide the best for us, for my sister who looks up to me and my friends who supports me no matter what. I want to give them the best of me.<br />
<br />
Whoo, with this short post, I just wanted to share this nice book I started reading. It's by Stephen R. Covey entitled <span style="background-color: white; color: #576a7d; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; text-align: left; text-transform: uppercase;">THE 7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE</span><sup style="background-color: white; color: #576a7d; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left; text-transform: uppercase;">®</sup><br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I know this would help me survive through the rest of the sem and will be useful the rest of my life. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Aside from changing my perspective, I also changed the name of my blog from Novice Carmi to Carmi Creates. I believe it would be helpful in the future and reflects my refreshed view of creating memories rather than focusing on one thing alone.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Why in the world did I only think of this now. That's it for now.</div>

What's very Special about this event is that the bloggers are paired with their lucky readers! Making it twice the fun!<div><br />
</div><div>Guess what? I got picked by my favorite blogger Paxie.:) I feel so lucky for getting picked! I only knew about it like Saturday morning and I have to plan for outfit and stuffs. I wasn't yet sure if I can go (I'm not yet <i>nagpapaalam</i>. Hihi!) I moved heaven and earth to be able to go! JK! But it was hard telling it to my mom (strict parents). They agreed if they can accompany me to MOA. What is compromise?! :)</div><div><br />

</tbody></table>We had a fun ice breaking game, the Human Bingo! Blogger David Guison won the game. After that, we had the styling game! I'm excited for this because Ms. Paxie is really a talented stylist. <i>Sisiw! </i>The bloggers drew lots of what mannequins to take, we got a guy mannequin. It was a challenge since Ms. Paxie never styled a guy mannequin before but as competitive as we are, we can do this! :)<br />

UP Ecosoc's AdHoc Party was held last Sept. 23 as celebration of the organization's 53rd anniversary. It was held at One Esplanade, near MOA, with drinks sponsored by San Miguel Corp.<br />
<br />
For the first time ever, I was permitted to attend a college party! (Yes, I have strict parents. I feel like a free woman!) Well before, it was my own prerogative not to attend college parties because I actually do not know what to expect there since I've never been to one before. But now, I didn't expect everything! It was kinda wild for me. Don't get me wrong, I love the music and the dancing. But people really get wild with a drink in their hands. Not to mention the people they're with. REALLY WILDDDDD!!<br />
<br />
Anyway, I had fun with my dates. ;) Thank you so much to Pers and Joby! Especially to Joby, without whom I'll not be able to go. :)<br />
<br />
But first, my outfit shot.<br />

</tbody></table>I have this dress for like forever. I have used it for debuts already. But I really wasn't prepared for the party because I only asked my mom if I could go the previous day. No time to look for clothes! Anyway, I was inspired by a mannequin in SM with layering of belts. So, to reinvent my look, I used black and white belt.<i> La lang, </i>breaker<i> lang. </i>And some accessories I received as gifts. I also have those black pumps since forever. They're very useful like I have worn them from formal affairs to casual events (even to Church). I'll beef up my closet soon (hopefully!). I'm reading Paula Reed's <i>Style Clinic </i>(I got this from Ms. Aisa's blog). It has helped me sort out actually. Anyway, my fave piece is the fedora hat! It helped focus attention on my face not on my dress. I think I quite stood out because of the hat. Many people noticed it. :)<br />

</tbody></table> After going to RENEGADE, we went to Tides along Timog Ave. to eat and drink more. We were taken here by Joby's Aunt for their well known Squeeze me! It was not bad at all. I'm not a drinker, I only drank a shot of cocktail at the party. I didn't even like it that much. But the Squeeze me, was super nice! It only tastes like Slurpee of 7-11. Also, their cheesy potato is superb! We saw K Brosas there too! So pretty in person.<br />

</div><div>Last night, I have the strongest urge to make something. (I'm having wild animal urges lately, in a good way, 'kay?) I actually have a vision of creating something out of my old tattered jeans. And that something is....... a pouch! I think it went out actually, well. (I hope). It's <i>pretty</i> usable. JK! Of course it's usable, at least for me. </div><div><br />
</div><div>And so, I first attempted to create a purse out of it. I was almost done, I only have to sew the zipper and that's it. But dang, the zipper broke so I have to find another old zipper (I just ripped the zippers from old pouches). But, I didn't find any (of the size, that is). What I found is a medium length old zipper which reminded me that I am in need of a pencil case. My case is now torn and old, like things falling off it. So, I got on with my plan. But, it was wilder! I spent 2-3 hours making the purse. While the case, I spent almost the whole afternoon, from 11-5. WILD! But, I was happy after.:)</div><div><br />
</div><div>Let me just clear it out with you, I don't have any experience in or out of class where I have sewn something. I mean, yes, we had a project in cross stitching and sewing in gradeschool but not making a shirt or something. Another thing, I don't own a sewing machine.:| And, I don't know how to use it, either. So, I did it with my <b>bare hands</b>. Which doubled my efforts and the time spent. But, it's worth it! Anyway, this is my baby.:)</div><div><br />

<div><br />
</div><div>I attended this ACLE (alternative classroom learning experience) in UP Diliman and poof! There I was, yup! I found myself. It was my first time to actually decide (on my own, without any pressures, a.k.a. ACLE as a requirement) to attend a class.</div><div><br />
</div><div>At 12:30pm, I had the strongest urge to attend any class, as in, any at all. I planned to go to a belly dancing class, cosmetic class, HP7.2 screening, stock exchange, divorce bill forum, etc. there's just too many I can't list them all. But of course, you could only attend to one. (dang!) Then, I just stumbled upon UPD Engineering Society's ACLE class, Let me drESs you UP. I thought it would be nice to go because first, Melchor hall is just a few buildings away (this is near, based on UPD standards. I'm in Econ.) and it's FASHION! When I have finally decided, it was already 1:30pm. I'm late! late! LATE!</div><div><br />
</div><div>I was pleasantly surprised to find out that they haven't started yet (yey!). They had some (more than, maybe) technical problems but they have raffles every time! They have like 30+ pairs of earrings to give away. I kinda didn't know what to expect in this ACLE (since, it was my first time). there have been some delays but once it started, you just can't stop! (wink!)</div><div><br />
</div><div>So, it started off with Lexi! </div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><img src="http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y151/lexi928/Untitled-1.jpg" /></div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>and you could say, I'm a novice in fashion. I swear! We were batchmates in Econ! If I had just known before, i could have been more friendly. Kidding! Shy-type <i>kaya ako! </i>(haha!). I thought she was you-know, uhm, not so kind. But, of course, she's so sweet and all that.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Then, Nikki!</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo6apglxpU1qag2q1.png" /></div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>She's really a talented and incredible petite artist. She did so generously raffle some items from +Ruckus. Lovely! For girls and boys, take note! Ann was with her too!</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Then, to the business partners and real-life couple, Seph and Shai.</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><img height="320" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3074/5861960045_e9e597d333_b.jpg" width="209" /></div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>They're just sooo cute. And I must say, they garnered the most questions, personal ones. (blush!)</div><div><br />
</div><div>Finally, these duo. Aisa and Melai!<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
AND!! they styled 3 of us. Yup! I WAS STYLED!!! It was such an honor to meet them, moreover, to be styled by them! They were so warm and friendly. They're really down-to-earth people. All of them.<br />
<br />
And that actually inspired me to try a fashion, er, expression (I wouldn't call it business yet. Who knows?). They were really amazing people. You can't help but be absorbed by them. Awww... I love these people.<br />
<br />
<br />
Hence, this blog was created and named Novice Inspiration! Novice because I'm new and I have to learn a lot. Inspiration because I will forever remember what these girls did to me in changing my perspective in Life.<br />
