College

It's been a while since I last blogged and I am already into the 2nd week of school!

I'm currently taking the Bachelor of Fine Arts Major in Cinema in USC and I couldn't have asked for a better course. The people I met are the best and I thought I was gonna be a misfit for the rest of my college life. I have no plans of shifting to other courses. Sadly, I was unable to join the varsity team for soccer because I couldn't resched and bla bla bla. So no more soccer for me but hopefully I can join in the 2nd Sem.

 This is us everyday.

This morning I woke up to buzzing notifications in my phone and while browsing through twitter, I got inspired by the works of Julia Trotti to pick up my camera and start taking photos again. That is exactly what I did when I just woke up this morning.

 I have dancer's feet.

Alexis' secret talent

Went over to Ayala after to get school requirements and thankfully I got almost half of the shit I needed. Just half though. Anyway I should be getting back to do some work. byee

Peculiar Children

Hi readers! So on Tuesday, 14 May 2013, our dad arranged an audition for to play at outpost.

We weren't really expecting to get selected because we are worse than amateurs and I've never really played the guitar and sung infront of a crowd before. It was just for exposure but the feeling was nice though. I did make covers in youtube maybe that's why I got a little bit of the confidence to sing infront of people but other than that I'm no expert. I got really nervous cause I thought it was just gonna be in a room and I didn't prepare for it to be infront of a real crowd. We played 4 songs:

1. Stay by Rihanna
2. For you by Angus & Julia Stone (alexis solo)
3. Your Song by Elton John
4. Romeo & Juliet by Dire Straits

..and I screwed up the guitar part for the first song. Sigh. 

 

I didn't really agree with the idea at first but Dad kept pestering and I can't say no when he starts to pester. He's just trying to open a window for us I guess so I just went along with. All I could think was that after all that was over, I would be at home and in my bed and back to my routine stuff at home.

Well that's it for the 14th of May.

Delayed Mother's Day Post

Our little fruity baked oatmeal with cinnamon for breakfast and a rose for our beloved mother.

Mom woke up early cause she wanted to go to church with dad and we planned to actually make it while she went to church but in the end we were told that we suddenly had to come with.

We bought all the ingredients the just the night before and thank God it wasn't a difficult recipe to prepare. Took us like 15 mins to prepare and about 45 mins to bake in the oven. Thannk God mom likes to take her time while preparing her stuff.

Well I finally managed to wear my houndstooth dress I got from Singapore and before I wore it, I actually had it washed and the black patterns kinda faded so now it actually looks grey and white instead of black and white. And it might also be probably the last time I'll be wearing that dress cause I looked really fat in this particular photo my dad took and I got sooooo upset about it that I cried (i know its a little overacting but not really in a good mood nowadays probably cause of PMS and shit). So yeah. 

After church, had salad for lunch with my gramma and pa and went home. Watched some tv and then we prepared to go out again cause we were gonna go watch Global FC's match against this really good team and as I guessed it, they were trashed. 1 - 6 to the team from Kyrgyzstan. I think.

 

Embracing our weirdness.

While waiting for Global's game to start, we were like in our own world. Haha cause there's like a band behind us supporting Global and everytime the crowd screamed, we'd be like 'WE LOVE PIZZA' and screaming other shit like nobody's business.

So yeah. Anyway, I've been really insecure about my body lately and there are some times where I feel like resorting to throwing up my food (don't worry I didn't). They said it was bad for your stomach and it would corrode your teeth and shit. So no, not gonna pay that kind of price for beauty. Now I'm gonna watch what I eat to prevent feeling bad at the end of the day. Yeap.

I wish all mothers a very Happy Mother's Day !

Did you get that ? hehe

Well it's already May. I was supposed to have already enrolled in to a school and taken the entrance exam and shit but noooo. People ask me why I haven't enrolled yet and I don't know what to tell them. It's soooo hectic trying to enroll into schools when you've studied in a foreign country your whole life especially cause of the differences of how they work and all the conversions and ughhh. So yeah I'm having a slight problem of getting into USC. There is a possibility they will ask me to repeat last year of high school. ughhhh. If I do have to repeat, I would've worked my ass off for nothing. NOTHING. All those 4 years of hardcore drilling information in to my head for N levels wouldn't even matter. And it sucks cause I went through hell to get my grades that well and it's just gonna be put aside and ignored. Frustrating really. But right now I really can't be bothered to start looking for a fuck to give. I don't want to expect anymore because I don't know what to expect. I am frustrated but I've got nobody to blame really, not even me. Okay well, I do blame my dad a little but I don't think he meant for this to happen either so... idgaf. Sigh. Whatever it maybe, I will beg and plead the Gods or something as long as I don't drop out of school.

Well enough about the future.

Few days ago, mom finally agreed to let us visit Colon. At first she was really reluctant about going there because of all the thieves and the little crimes people do there. We would usually just drive by the place. On Sunday, we went to this mall called 138 in Colon. Their stuff are ridiculously cheap compared to Singapore's kind of cheap. There are alot of imitations and inspired brands like Vans etc. and funny thing was that there were actually some which are clearly fake that it hurts my eyes.

I finally bought hair bleach and its developer and a few other necessities for hair dying and I paid PHP200+ and that's about SGD7+. That is realllly cheap for a big tub of bleach powder and a hugggeeee bottle of developer. I was so excited so I bleached my hair by the time I got home. I bleached it twice and this is how it turned out !

 

Left: Developer Right: Bleach powder

 haha nice ? :) I bleached half of the underlayer of my hair and this is how it actually looks like from the back. Looks like a 1cm dip dye at the tips of my hair.

  Im so happy with it ^^ So happy to the extent that I was thinking of giving it name haha. excuse my fatness and my peculiarity.

OKAY TIME FOR THE MORE EXCITING NEWS.

Just got back from the Aboitiz Soccer Field for the TSG FC trainings and guess what, the Askals were also training there at the pitch just beside ours. Well that's not the exciting part.

I learned how to drive for the first time today and I swear to the heavens above I was born to drive. IT'S IN MY NATURE. Haha well I was just driving around the Aboitiz under the supervision of my super momster who is also still learning how to drive. And I wasn't the only one who got a chance to get behind the wheel. BABY SIS IS ALSO GOT TO DRIVE AROUND! Hahaha this is a really big thing for me because I've been waiting for sooo long and everyday I would sit behind the driver's seat and imagine that I was the one driving the car and how it felt like and now I finally got to experience. Haha was kinda surprised Dad let me test my first drive on it despite it being very very new. So yeah. Greatest achievement I've ever made since I moved here and moree to come! I hope! There is a video proof of me driving in facebook!

That'd be it for now! 

Hope May will be good to me. To us. I miss my lil Gucci.

Well cause we didn't have anything to do for the whoooole day and we were dolled up and I didn't want the time I took to look good go to waste so I let the camwhoring commence. I've posted quite a few videos of what we did that day on my keek.

Island Hopping @ Cordova

ISLAND HOPPING AT CORDOVA WITH FAMILYY :D

Long and hot drive in the morning plussss hugeee traffic while otw to Cordova. ughhhh but it was worth the wait. we reached cordova and i swear the waves were calling out to me. something out there was asking me to join them in the water. either that or i was hearing voices in my head due to the heat. but i swear. we all got on the boat and sailed off in to the blue blue water possibly with sharks in em. Unlike before, we were just brought to 2 spots. Haha we were being dragged along while on the way to the second spot instead of getting on the boat. The waters were more shallow compared to the other one i had gone before. and guesss what. we went to pick starfish! we probably caught about 10? sizes from smaller than my palm to monstrous sizes. we didn't keep them though. it'd be really cruel to take its life away when it's so helpless.

 Saysonsssssss

 

im going mad with the overlays

photo before throwing them back in to the ocean! 

Haha well that's all the photos you're gonna get today cause I rarely held the camera. was too busy swimming with the fishes and the octopus. OH YA WE FOUND A BABY OCTOPUS. haha not like you've never seen one before haha.

After island hopping, went to catch Iron Man 3 for a night movie and guess what.... we all slept through some parts of the movie. as expected. I did the same for Iron man 2 i don't know whyyy! I'd like to rewatch it though! So yeapp! Papa don don and Mama esil were going back to the states na tomorrowww! I'm gonna miss them loads! Hope they have a safe flight back ! Soo yeah that pretty sums up todayy and I am really dead nowww I need sleep! Thank God I've got nothing on tomorrow! Till then !

Week of the sick

Been sick for a few days not sure what caused it though :( It was sooo bad I could barely move and I look horrible. I looked sooo horrible I couldn't stand it so I decided to wear make up and smile for a second to take a photo. Niesa came to visit though and kinda enlightened me a little. Haha we did a gentleman video on the iMac and im still contemplating whether to post it on youtube or not. Photos below were all taken within the same week, just not sure by its order.

Hahaha this was what I was talking about !

A few day's after, was feeling soooo much better but my cough still lingers on :( Andddd the BRO cup came along on the 26th April and I was to be playing in the u17 girls. Past few mornings I woke up hoping my cough would've completely disappeared but it's still there. But I guess it was alright cause it didn't stop me from playing in the tournament. It's just annoying. After a longggg day of waiting and matches, we emerged champions for u17 categoryyyy with Angeli and Mai mai as our coach  :)

excuse our peculiarity

We ended at like 10 pm ? and we still had to be early and again the next day for another tournament. kapoyaaaaaa. didn't have the mood to play and looking at the circumstances I didn't wanna play at all. Weather was scorching and I was still a little laggy from the night before. Before we knew it, my team was off by around noon. Thank god we didn't have to end late again. Went over to Mama Janet's shop for partyyy cause it was the 1st anniversary of their shop. FOOOD EVERYWHERE. i wasn't hungry though :( Ohoh and my Mama said that my face got smaller. :D and there was a plan of going for island hopping the next day with the family! Yay! more photos! Hope I can take a photo of me jumping in to the water!

Till the next post !
