How I Saved Money

No doubt, Spending is easier than saving. Especially if you’re like me who is kinda materialistic and do enjoy spending for food. But over the years I’ve succeeded in saving …

1st of June

Oh look how time flies. It’s already half of the year. This month would be a very special and memorable month for me. A few days from now, I would …

Going to SLU Main Campus is already rare for me. And ever since the time we were transferred to the Navy Base Campus, there has been a lot of food …

Summing Up what Happened lately

Hoooraaayyy!! 1st post for November. Hahaha

Anyway, I haven’t been posting lately because I have been busy in school. Finally, I found time to share with you what is happening in my life lately.

First of all, we did our own musical for acting and directing. Our musical-CATS. Finding costumes, practicing songs and steps, doing props and to think that we performed during exam week, well that’s hardcore. But it was all woth it in the end. Glad to be a cat.

“I have a Gumbie Cat in mind. Her name is Jennyanydots.” Though I really looked like Garfield. Hahaha xD

Next, the most drastic change for me this month. MY HAIR!! I cut it short. Went for a long bob. And then I tried coloring my hair. I let the stylist color my hair with something red-ish purple-ish color with orangey highlights. It turned out great. It’s cool how my hair changes color depending on the camera used and the lighting. Hahaha.

Before:

After:

I’m planning to color and cut my hair again this December because the color is already fading and my hair is getting longer again. Seriously, after a week, I can see the black roots of my hair. -_____-

Actually, my new look wasn’t a WANT. It was a NEED. The purpose of my hair change was for my TV Workshop hosting. It was challenging to be the first among all the classes because you don’t have any basis, but it turned out better than what I expected. It was a very nice experience. Though we didn’t get a good feedback from our instructor, it was fine.

During our talkshow. Yaaayy!!

I also finally got my necklace from themoonxstars. 🙂

And my yearly November tradition, my Starbucks Planner 😀

Got the brown one.

This month, I also had the chance to make the best guy friend into a girl. Hahahaha. Meet Winston the Muscular Medusa.

Winnie as Medusa and Annie as Hades. Our take on Gods and Goddesses, Roman and Greek figures.

Winston’s turn to do face painting on me. Theme: Animals. Seriously, I think I’m going to make a portfolio of me turning into animals. -_____- He turned me into a Shark!!

The Master Painter and the Canvas. He really wanted to make me into a scary shark, but no matter how hard he tried to make me scary, I turned out to be a very cute shark. Hahaha xD As I said to him, my cuteness is innate.

Basically, that’s what happened to me during the times I haven’t been active in blogging. Hopefully, my schedule would be a little flexible this December. 🙂

Back to school!! Quick blog

Holla!! It’s been a month since my last blog entry. Reason why I haven’t posted anything? Was too lazy!! Hahaha. Besides there’s nothing good to blog. (I really must stop being lazy)

Anyway, after 2 months of sweet vacation, I’m back to being a student. It’s my senior year in college now. SAY WHAT!! Still not sinking in. It’s like I just graduated from high school and now I’m about to graduate in college. O.o Time really do fly so fast.

This school year, my campus has changed/moved. From the main Bonifacio campus, I’m now at the Navy Base Campus. Mixed emotions. I’m happy because the school is now a walking distance from my house, saves me money and I could wake up late, but the sad part, I’m a bit farther now from the center of the city.

My first day of school went well truth, it sucks!! My first class was 1 in the afternoon and there’s no instructor. After that class we have a 3 hour break before the next class. Because there was no instructor, that 3 hour break became a 3 hour and 40 minute break. I was planning to go home but didn’t know why I didn’t go home. Hahaha. So we just went to Teacups and Cake. Thank God for few near food establishments. (Teacup and Cakes review here: Feeling Dainty at Teacups and Cake)

See my cookie. XD Oreo Cookie

That break was such a boring one. Ended up siting somewhere for a few hours. But I did still enjoy it because of the weird and funny unending stories my friends and I have shared. At around 4:30 (after eating fishball) we went back to school for our 5-6 class. Our last class for MWF. And guess what, there was no instructor again. Well this was an effort-wasted day. Sheeshh!! But what can I do. Hopefully tomorrow, we would have instructors already. Fingers cross.

So how’s your first day? Hope you had fun. 🙂

See, I even got my stuffs ready. Oh look at that pink ID holder. Wahaha xD

Happy Birthday Winston

Someone just turned 19 last June. Finally I’m not older than him anymore. Hahaha

Well we planned to surprise him but apparently we were the ones surprised. It was so embarrassing because we shouted super extra duper loud at the mall that almost everyone looked at us. Sorry.

Our surprise didn’t turn as a surprise anymore so we just handed him our cupcake gift 🙂

Look at those cupcakes from Glyco. It’s a carrot walnut cupcake topped with 4 of his favorite things: his camera, youtube icon, bacon and chicken.

Well because it’s his birthday, he needs to treat us. Wooohooo.. Where oh where? He chose to treat us at Korean Palace. Weird cause he is not a really big fan of Korean food.

We chose to try their buffet rather than order individual servings.

Hi Fran 🙂

I just need a close-up of this pink dressing. Hahahaha. It’s a sweet beet dressing.

Time to grill. Woohoooo.

We went back 3 times to the buffet table. I guess that’s worth it for what we payed or what he payed for. Hahaha. We were so full at the end of the meal. Thanks Wins!!

Let me take a groupie!! XD

After our Korean Palace’ lunch, we ended up walking to Camp JohnHay. Why? I guess because we didn’t want to go home yet, we’re bored and we need to burn what we have eaten. It’s just so sad that Fran couldn’t join us. 😦

Such a wonderful afternoon!!

More group photos. Sorry for the awkward face expressions. Hahahaha.

Now let me take a selfie!!

It was such a great day. I truly had fun. Thanks to the birthday boy!! Can’t wait for the next birthday celebration, the 2 August girls. Hahaha.

19th Birthday :)

(Sorry for posting this later than expected ^____^v)

Last April 24, I officially turned 19. Gosh I’m old. Hahaha. I planned to celebrate it in a very simple way.

When I woke up, this is the first thing I saw.

Purple Paper Flowers made by my cousin. So cute, plus it won’t ever die. 🙂

Started the day by going to church. It’s a must in our family that if it’s your birthday, you have to go to church. Thank God for the blessings that I have received for the past year of my life.

After that we went back home, I got ready for school. It’s really unusual for me to have classes on my birthday. I was almost late for class (blame the slow jeepney). When I entered I was greeted with a happy birthday song. Thank you!!

Before our next class starts, I saw Frances :)) Ok, Ces and Winston are acting weird. When I went out of our room, I saw Ces and Wins talking. When they saw me, they stop. O.o

After our last class, Wins told me to wait for Frances. I asked where is she, he said she went and got my letter. Ooookkkk!!

Waiting… Waiting… Waiting…

Finally she’s here, and she’s with Ally. And wait they have a box.

And this is what’s inside. 🙂 🐸

They also gave me letters

As I was reading the letters, I was literally crying. Everything was just so overwhelming.

Thankful to have them in my life.

After my crying scenario in school, I have to pick up some stuffs before going home.

And when I went home, this is the 1st one I grabbed. Hahaha

This has been my favorite food since birth I guess. Cocktail hotdogs with marshmallow on stick. Yuuummeerss!!

See I told you.

I also redeemed my free cake from Starbucks.

Then my cousin also created a birthday video 🙂 It made me cry again.

I am really blessed to have all of them in my life. 🙂 one of the best birthday celeb so far 🙂 ❤

Today, I’m officially 19 :)

Happy Birthday to me!! La la la!!

Full blogpost tomorrow!! 🙂 Yaaay!!

Tumblr? Yes or a No

I’ve been thinking if I would be blogging at tumblr again.

See, days before, I came across my tumblr account which was created 4 or 5 years ago. And I missed it. Sadly, I forgot the e-mail add that I’ve used and the password. Hahaha. Yup, I’m already too old to remember.

So I was thinking if I’m going to make a new one? If ever I’m going to make a new one, what ever I’ll be posting here would also be the ones you’ll see in my tumblr blog. And if ever I’ll be joining tumblr again, I would minimal the reblog stuff.

So will I? Hhhhmmmm??

HELP!!

Oh wait as I’m blogging this I can hear the fireworks. This signals the month long celebration of Panagbenga. Until next year 😊
