2010 was a pretty darn amazing year

I usually make year-end posts but this year I got lazy to do so, teehee. Nevertheless, this year was pretty darn amazing ♥ I got so many of my firsts and there were a bunch of ups and downs but I think it was still the best year yet! The year I turned eighteen is probably my wildest year ever, and I look forward to wilder years to come! :P

Dear friends and darlings, thank you for being part of my awesome 2010. We shall all start the new year with a bang! ♥ HAPPY NEW YEAR :)

This be my friend Kim. He is new to Lookbook, so hype him, everyone!

My camera was acting up again so we had to do with the camera of the new iPod Touch. :(

Hung out with my friend Kim at High Street today. Accompanied him to buy some cake for his parents and ended up getting treated to some Sonja's red velvet and Starbucks! Yay thanks Kim :)

The weather this afternoon was so perfect--sunny yet breezy. Wish it were like this all the time in the Philippines!

Check this out--
Little souvenir from Starbucks (which I stuck to my wallet :P)! I felt so badass. :>


Tomorrow I think I will be stuck at home. :( time for a movie marathon, perhaps? :)

PS. if only I had been more aware, I could've stayed longer for the Facehunter event in Fully Booked and met fellow bloggers! :(

BLACK SWAN

"I felt it. I felt perfect. I was perfect."
BREATHTAKING.
BEAUTIFUL.
BEYOND AMAZING.

NO KIDDING. :)

I am in loooooooove. For some reason, this was the concept I had in mind for my short film, Leap, which I made in August (as a final requirement for my video production class). Funny how it actually came to life without me doing it HAHAHA

Natalie Portman is such a classy and elegant woman (congratulations to her for her engagement and pregnancy!) and Mila Kunis is hotstuff. Enough said.

Watching Black Swan made me miss ballet. :(

Choreography was great.
Cinematography was great.
Casting was perfect.

11 out of 10 stars!!!

Something I'd definitely watch over and over. Looks like I got myself a new favorite movie! :)

I'M SORRY, THIS IS ME RANTING. IT WAS THAT GOOD I COULDN'T EVEN WRITE A PROPER REVIEW/BLOG ENTRY ABOUT IT! :))

(all images grabbed off Tumblr)

Believe Me When I Say She Got That Whole Place Glowin'

One dress, eight tops, five skirts, one bra, three pairs of shoes, one lipstick, foundation, concealer and bronzer later, all my Christmas money and gift certificates are gone. BUT I AM A HAPPY BEE :) (will post my hauls as outfit shots when I get to wear them!)

And just when I thought of starting my "project Victoria's Secret Angel", I realized that New Year is coming up and we still have Media Noche! MORE FOOOOOOOOD. I guess Project VSAngel can wait til the New Year ;)

So for now, let me leave you with some photos of my favorite Angels, Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whitely, Alessandra Ambrosio and Behati Prinsloo!

Love has surely shifted my way, marry me today and every day

Forever 21 dress, Parisian boots, vintage choker, vintage purse, belt, Swatch watch, Forever 21 ring, Aldo earrings

Attended my relatives' golden wedding anniversary today. Attending weddings give me this particular happy vibe :) the food was great, the program was too, I just couldn't stand the venue and cold that much (for some reason I am a plant hater and unfortunately, the event was held in Glass Gardens, a hall decorated with plants, plants and more plants *sigh*).

Great timing JM has as he introduced me to Train's Marry Me just before I left the house for the wedding. It's such a cutesy song, listening to it made me dream about my own wedding! For the first time in my entire life, I actually have an almost-clear picture of my wedding in mind -- from the makeup (HAHA), dress, venue, and of course (hihi I really hope soooo), groom. ;) love has surely shifted my way! ♥



And of course, Bruno Mars' Marry You, my week-long LSS ♥

Annual Angeles Christmas x Clean-up Sales

December 26, 2010: Much less people, much less games, much less gifts and early dismissal but still fun nonetheless. :)


Nine West bag, ukay-ukay blazer, Forever 21 top, unbranded skirt, Parisian wedges, Aldo hoops, Swatch watch, Forever 21 rings

Braved the Forever 21 sale with my cousins from the other side of the family after. I looooove clean-up sales! I scored 8 items from Forever 21 for just 1.5k! IMAGINE THAT! Most amazing shopping spree so far. :) going back with friends within the week (I heard they change stocks every day so I'm definitely sure to find new stuff!) :D
