♥ food.

Yesterday I went out with few friends. Though the original planned changed I really didn't mind at all. Well coz I still get to eat!

As soon as I met with my friend we were both hungry already and decided to grab something to eat. Since I didn't want to eat something too heavy I asked him to eat with me at Earle's. The sandwich there is 10 inches long, affordable and really good. They usually cut the bread into 2 since it's too long. I only ate half of mine and forgot to take the other half when we decided to walk around.

I met up with another friend and we decided to eat at Gelatissimo since I wanted to eat something sweet and cold. I don't really remember what I ordered but it taste really good. My friend ordered cookie and cream and a brownie. I really didn't really enjoy his order since I thought it tasted like alcohol. Talked for a few minutes since I haven't seen them in quite some time. Catching up with what we have been doing in our lives.

I went home with a happy stomach! BTW the photos I took suck coz I'd rather enjoy what I'm eating. :)

"Sometimes you have to be strong, even when your whole world just fell apart."

So this is my Father who I lost recently on April 25, 2011. It was the most painful experience I had in my life. I love my Dad more than anyone in this world. Though I may not show or say it often but I do love him. He was the best Father a daughter and a son could ask. He puts us first before anything else. He makes sure we get what we want before he gets his. He is a very unselfish person. He is the only person I never saw mad in my whole life. He’s very soft spoken, I don’t ever recall him shouting or talk loud. He was just that kind. He was a good husband to my mother. He makes sure my mother is always okay. He makes sure my mother is healthy and safe and forgot his own health. Most of all, he was a good person. He helps and gives without asking anything in return. He never holds a grudge to anybody. He forgives and forgets.

We finally went back to Kuwait to be with him after the operation and to live here in Kuwait again with him. Since he has been working here as an architect for years. But my older brother had to stay in Philippines until April 29 and wait for his visa and ticket.

Sending him to the operating room was painful enough. I prayed, I prayed until I fell asleep. After few hours my mother sent me a message that my father’s operation was successful and he was at the ICU. I was happy that he was strong enough and now we just have to wait for 2 days to see him again. But after an hour suddenly my father just gave up. His heart just stopped beating. He couldn’t take the 8 hours operation. It was just too sudden dad.

My father had stage 4 Cancer in his pancreas. The 8 hours operation was successful but his body couldn’t take it and died from Cardiac Arrest.

Treasure your parents. They are all you have. And they love you for who you are. Tell them you love them everyday because you don’t know when is the last time you could hear them say they love you back too. I lost my father so sudden after a week of being with him again here in Kuwait.

Make sure they know you love them and thankful for everything. I know my father now is with our Lord. But I just can’t help but miss him and cry. We love you Papa and we will miss you.

Electro Pop Me!

Rez Toledo also known as Somedaydream. I know some people are very familiar with him already. But I'm going to blog about his music anyway coz I love it and never get tired of hitting the replay button and listen to his song!

I heard his songs months ago and I liked it already. I thought it was a foreign band playing on the radio. He doesn't sound like a local band here in the Philippines. But when I searched the lyrics on google then found the artist I immediately went to youtube and play the song. I was surprised to see a Pinoy playing this song. Coz he totally didn't sound like one. I was blown away.

He is one of the few local artists that I would want to see play live on gigs. It's so worth it. 

There are still a lot of talented musician here in the country. Support Philippines' local bands.

Sometimes, some stranger's words could just mean so much.

I guess I have been posting sad photos or quotes on my tumblr a couple of months ago. I was going through a hard time and I must admit I still am. When I suddenly felt like logging on my tumblr I had a message from a stranger that I don't even know. Never seen or never even exchanged even a single word. He just left this message that somehow made me realize that some people do take their time to reach out to you. Regardless if you are a stranger or someone they know. Some people just let you know that whatever situation I went through and I am going through now at the end of it all there is hope.

So stranger, I wrote this blog entry just to let you know how thankful I am for your words.

"this is going to sound insanely weird and pretty random but thank you. and, if it's any consolation, shit i could just be looking like an idiot and you could have just posted a song lyric or something, but if there's someone in your life who hurt you and tried saying you deserved better, you're not alone. and eventually you'll find what you deserve. At least i hope so." -He said.

Dear Hair, I'm never satisfied. Sorry.

I get bored so fast with my hair. I hate having the same kind of hairstyle or hair color. I have a habit of changing it after a couple of months. I'm not afraid of dying it or just cutting them real short regardless of the length. I just get bored so fast.

I'm sorry hair if I have dyed, permed and cut you a lot of times. Somehow you really did give up on me and gave me the driest hair ever! That lead me to chopping my hair off really short. Boy hair cut short! Just when I decided that I wanted to grow it long this time.

My hair now is really short, won't even reach my shoulders at all. I promise not to do anything to it but just let it grow long and not have a drastic haircut for two years. But hey! That won't stop me from changing the hair color though. But I promise to grow it long this time.

Well here are some of the photos that I still have in how much I've been changing my hair in just 3 years! And yeah they are in order in how I've changed them in 3 years. Okay hair, I won't harm you anymore for a year or so. I'll let you rest. :)

 

I'm A Vector

Here are some of my face in a vector mode. Thanks to two people who made this. There's another vector photo but I can't seem to find it. Booohooo! :(

I tried doing vector photos but I don't have the patience and the skills for it. Too lazy to read the tutorials as well! But thanks to them for doing such an awesome job! I love it.

Second photo was made by Nene DeloSantos.

Natsumi Hayashi: The Levitating Girl

Natsumi Hayashi is a Japanese photographer who loves to levitate in photographs. Most of the photos she took are herself levitating.

Natsumi lives in Tokyo with her two cats. If you are in Tokyo and you see a girl who has a camera and self timer in her hand who tries to capture photos and make them seem like the person is levitating, then that's probably her.

I personally love the photos she takes. They are interesting and unique. It made me just browse a photo after photo. I mean come on, isn't this better than planking?

Check out her works at http://yowayowacamera.com/


Here are some of the photos that I personally adore that are taken by Natsumi. Enjoy it as much as I did. :)
