Rumi x Sunday Inspo


Photos via fashiontoast

I am obsessed with Rumi. I am so jealous of her lifestyle, I wish mine would turn out just like hers in the near future. I am so inspired by her blog, all I need to do right now is take action (we'll see where this will take me, will let you guys in when I'm actually on my way).

What a lazy Sunday it has been. Been in bed all day, considering it's only the start of my weekend. What a bum. But then again I miss bumming around, no thanks to work. Work which I hate, by the way. I am resigning very soon. I can't seem to find myself confined in an office for much too long. Can't wait to find a job that would have me in the front line, or at least interact with other people. Being in an office for 9 hours a day 5 times a week having a stare off with a computer screen and freezing my ass off is just bs, not my thing. Don't even get me started with my working hours--it's just terribly awful.

Sent my resume around again but this time chose the companies carefully, not just for the sake of. Let's all hope they start calling me for interviews or whatnot. But for now, let me leave you guys with some amazing stuff I grabbed off Tumblr. I swear I love Tumblr... so much inspiration.


Can't wait to spend my first paycheck on make-up. I still can't believe I lost all my MAC, Sephora and Chanel make-up. I swear, whoever you are who stole my entire make-up kit, you should rot in hell! xx

May the odds...

...be ever in your favor.



I'm WAAAAAY too excited for this to come out in March. Basing from the trailer, it's similar to how I imagined it to be, so I really hope it won't disappoint. :)

Zombie Mode: On

I gotta love my weekends now, since they're the only days I'd get to do what I want, many thanks to work!

Turns out I didn't have to spend my 11/11/11 in bed like I imagined! I decided to risk it and party the night before a 6am shift in work. Needless to say I was on zombie mode the entire day after. I think it was all worth it, though. The party was fun, and I'm so proud that I didn't drink! Work the next morning was hell--who would have thought layouting tables was going to be so freaking complicated? Gauging from what I did that day, I don't think I'll be staying in the company for long. Gotta look for something else I'd rather do for a living. :)

After work I headed straight to Araneta for Skechers! CONGRATULATIONS, LSDC-STREET :) champions once again! I'm so proud of you guys, I can't believe you won ALL of your competitions this year! What a great year for you guys :) I'm happy to be part of the LSDC family.


After Skechers I headed to Tomas Morato for some yummy soup and cake for my best friend's birthday countdown! It was such an exhausting day for me (imagine being up for 27 hours straight! But I've actually done worse during my thesis days) I was so excited to go home to spend some quality time with my bed. :)

Oh and today's still a weekend for me, even if it's already Monday. Turns out I only get Sundays and Mondays off, and I work from Tuesday to Saturday. :( I'm gonna miss all my Friday nights out!

Anyway, expect more rants about work soon, I bet I'll have a whole lot more, lol. For now, let me share with you guys one of the songs I'm starting to get obsessed with! And it's by The Black Keys-again!

Oh, oh-oh, I got a love that keeps me waiting.

Into My Bloodstream

A wish for you and me (among some other pesonal wishes ;) ).

Because living in different timezones suck.

But maybe not, because forever is such a scary place.

Happy 11.11.11, everyone. xx
I hope all our wishes come true :)

Love, me.



...and the silence surrounds you and haunts you.

*reposting this song just because. :)

PS. do you like my new header? :)

Better Run, Better Run, Outrun My Gun

My first three days at work felt like being back in school because all I have been doing is listening to my trainer, reading, taking down notes, and taking quizzes. Same thing would be done tomorrow and the day after. Turns out all my hands-on exercises would start next week, hmm. So for the past three days (besides doing what I've already mentioned awhile ago), I'd spend at least and hour or two going through random files stored in my desktop at the office. There were so much reading material on graphic design and I've been feeling so inspired! I hate that my job doesn't really include designing, though. :(

Two materials that really caught my fancy were Before&After Magazine and the Pantone Color Fashion Reports. I'm not even kidding when I say I've read all the PDF magazine files of both on my desktop! The former actually makes me wish I had waited for a designing job come my way. Mmm, maybe for my next job? Lol. It's only now that I realize I have found what I wanna do for a living. And the latter makes me want to pursue styling even more, even just as a side line! I've had styling gig offers recently which I had to turn down because work's in the way :(

Oh well. It's only been three days for me on the job anyway, I can't really gauge yet for how long I'm intending to stay! Let's see let's see. Maybe when I do some proper work I'd actually enjoy and not mind my (awful) working hours, lol. I hate not having a social life, okay. I am not me without it!!! :( it's literally gonna be work-home-work-home for me for the next few months :(

Moving on... here were my outfits from yesterday and today! Please excuse the quality, again.


"Corporate" day!
Blazer, mustard yellow maxi skirt, Forever 21 top, Parisian heels

Thrifted sweater, Forever 21 skirt, Forever 21 sneakers

I can't wait for the weekend. This Saturday's gonna be packed! Work in the morning, Skechers in the afternoon til night (good luck, LSDC-Street!) and one of my best friends' birthdays after! :)

PS. tomorrow's 11.11.11! Are you guys psyched? I wish I was! LOL. If only I had someone special to share the moment with, I perhaps would be, but I don't and I won't. I'm still making a wish, though. Just without a wish lantern unlike probably most of the people here who are going to Banchetto. I'm just gonna be on my bed, getting ready to sleep, lol. How fun.

PPS. I swear this song has been stuck in my head since the first time I heard it.

First Day Jitters

Ended up almost falling asleep at work today because I was running on only an hour of sleep. I dropped dead the moment I got home and finally got at least four more hours of rest!

So today was my first day at work and it wasn't all work-y for me! It actually felt like I was back at school since I'm still in my training phase. All I did today was get introduced to the company, the different software programs I will be using and stuff like that. I haven't even met my trainer yet since he wasn't around today. Perhaps tomorrow I would be doing more hands-on stuff. :)

Since we don't have a uniform for work, I'm free to wear whatever I want (hooray!). For my first day, I wanted to keep it on the down low and not go all out or something like I would usually do for school (hehe), so here's what I wore:


Don't you just love the stud detail and structure of my top? I know I do!
PS. sorry about the grainy photos. My BB's camera sucks!

Thrifted sweater top, jeans, pointed flats, Charles & Keith bag, Forever 21 rings, Swatch watch

Opted for a sweater top because It's so cold in the office (which reminds me, gotta buy more sweater tops)! Jeans and flats well, to keep comfy :) we actually have a dress code which is very similar to that of DLSU's, so I got no problem. But... tomorrow is corporate attire day! Mmm, perhaps time to go all out fashion? What do you guys think? :)

Another early day tomorrow so gotta hit the sack now! I'm actually loving my shift for this week because my social life isn't entirely ruined yet, lol. Next week til the end of January though, I gotta say goodbye to my old ways :( afternoon-night shift WILL kill me :(

I shall leave you guys with a little (or okay, not so little because it's super awesome) eargasm!

Hello Sweet November

Is it just me or did October just go by so quickly? It was such an amazing month for me in all aspects, I'm actually not surprised.

I'm sorry I haven't been blogging lately. I was too busy bumming around, lol. But right now, I only have exactly 4 more days left to bum around because I have officially been employed! Yes, I'm a working girl now. :) I'm going to be working 9 hours a day on a shifting schedule (no, I won't be working in a call center) so I guess it's time to say "see you later!" to my social life (yes, that includes my social networks, I guess) :( on the bright side, I'm finally gonna earn some money and I could finally cross off some things on my "to buy" list which has been getting longer every single time I hit the mall!

It's sweater weather and I love it! Although I'm not a fan of the rain, I love love love the cold breeze it brings. :) November, please be amazing. That's all I ask of you!

Here are some outfit pegs for work (for November and December weeee)! I love how I'm allowed to wear anything to work :)

If I could raid Rachel Bilson's closet, I would. Hers or Rumi's. I love everything Rumi. I am such a fan of her, I'm not afraid to admit! Can I please have a life like hers?
