Day 28 → A concert you have attended
Pussycat Dolls concert in 2006 at the Araneta Coliseum. Loved it and was inspired to lose weight so I could whittle my waist a lá PCD. Unfortunately, instead of losing weight, I gained pa! Boo! Some girls have all the luck.

catch-up post, 30-day challenge edition
30-day challenge is boring me, entonces, no lo hago. That's me, so eager to start with a project and then I get bored towards the end. I missed four days already so here's three of the four days I've missed. Three because I am so lazy to take a picture of whatever it is that could be inside our automobile. Plus, it says photo of something in my vehicle, I don't have a vehicle, so there.
Day 25 → Favorite clothing
At this point in my life, ANYTHING THAT FITS.
That would mean anything that was recently bought. And just recently, I actually go for items that are of quality. I used to buy from Divisoria where it's cheaper but I noticed that I after just a few wears, it either looks to worn-out already or broken like missing buttons, etc. I also love "vintage" (Read: ukay stuff).
Day 26 → Hometown location and facts
I suppose this is Pasig City...
The City of Pasig (Filipino: Lungsod ng Pasig) is one of the cities and municipalities that make up Metro Manila in the Philippines. It used to be the capital of the province of RizalQuezon City and Mandaluyong City; to the north by Marikina City; to the south by Makati City, Pateros, and Taguig City; and to the east by Antipolo City, the municipality of Cainta and Taytay in the province of Rizal. before Metro Manila was formed. Located along the eastern border of Metro Manila, Pasig is bordered on the west by
On June 11, 1901 the province of Rizal was created through Act No. 137 of Philippine Commission. Pasig was incorporated into the province of Rizal, and was designated as the capital of the new province.
In 1975, Pasig was carved out of Rizal province and became part of Metro Manila when the Metro Manila Commission (pre-cursor of Metro Manila Authority and later Metropolitan Manila Development Authority) was created by Pres. Ferdinand Marcos through Presidential Decree 824.
In July 1994, Pasig was converted into a highly urbanized city through Republic Act 7829. And in December 1994, President [[Fidel V. Ramos] ] signed it into law, which was ratified through a plebiscite on January 21, 1995.
Day 27 → Favorite story
What Katy Did is my favorite story growing up. Not a fairytale. Buti na lang I grew up with this as my favorite story and not a fairy tale or else princess-princess ang drama ko. Blech. Hindi ako prinsesa. Reyna ako! Haha.
There's this inspiring saying that Katy's father told her when she was having an unlucky day~
"For the want of a nail the shoe was lost,
For the want of a shoe the horse was lost,
For the want of a horse the rider was lost,
For the want of the rider the battle was lost,
For the want of the battle the kingdom was lost,
And all for the want of a horse-shoe nail."
Dr. Carr reminded Katy that what happened to her during her day were all consequences of her previous actions, decisions. Kind of like a domino effect. Similar to Gojocco's teaching: There are no accidents.

Day 24 → Random fact about you
Random fact about me na naman? Honestly, I can't think of anything interesting I can share about myself. Hmm... Okay, here it is: I still don't know what my blood type is.
This 30-day challenge is getting boring and now feels more like a chore. After this, I think I won't be starting anything like this that would require me to post something everyday.

Day 21 → Anything you want to post about
Just want to rant about lack of inspiration. I still can't come up with a design for my label and my sister who does is for a living won't help me. She will (daw) but I would have to send her an email first. What the heck? We live in the same friggin' house! Kabog pa niya ang red tape sa gobierno.
Wish me luck!

Day 19 → Person you tell everything to
I'd like to think I departmentalize my life. I share this area of my life with A and not with B and there are some areas I share with B but not with A and there are some I share with both. And there are areas I don't share with A nor B but with C.

Day 18 → Random fact about you
Because I'm such a bore and can't think of any interesting fact about myself, this is a random fact about me:
I was born a premature baby at 8 months, placenta previa.Told ya :P Doctor said had we arrived a minute later, my mommy and I wouldn't have made it. Several years later, doctor who delivered me was shocked to find out I lived. I must really have a grand purpose in life for me to not die back then. Pressure. Haha. Anyway, I want to find out whatever that purpose/s is/are.

Day 17 → Favorite musicals/plays
I'm a lucky girl because I was exposed to theater very early in life as my sister is a theater actor and she is connected with one of the theater groups here in the country. And most often than not, I get to watch these plays for free ☺ But out of all the plays I've seen, I have to say that Avenue Q is my favorite; Maybe because I watched it at the time of my life when I can totally relate to it.
Of course, included in my favorites are the plays/musicals my sister starred in.

Day 14 → Guilty Pleasures
Day 14 being done on Day 15 because we didn't have electricity almost the entire day yesterday- power outage in Metro Manila because of typhoon Bashang. Okay, eto na, my guilty pleaures:
- Twilight saga/ Edward Cullen Actually, it's a love/hate relationship I have with Twilight and Edward. I like how Edward loves Bella but I am annoyed at how Bella loves Edward. And please, Stephenie Meyer, come out with Midnight Sun already cos I don't really give a hoot about Bella's thoughts- and that's after
readinglistening four Twilight audiobooks and three movies :P - Coke Yes, I still feel guilty. Just way too much sugar for me...
- white boy Oh, yes! Super guilty na guilty to the nth power ako dito.

Day 13 → Addictions
Gosh, I have many. I have an addictive personality so I pretty get addicted to everything I like and yeah, it's something akin to the freakishly stalkerish kind. When I like something (or someone), I want to find out everything about it. As in EVERYTHING. I wanna have it everyday, if possible.
So without further ado, my addictions as of the moment are:
So without further ado, my addictions as of the moment are:
- tumblr Still. Not as much though but it still eats up much of my time, most especially that it's not as easy to find nice pictures and quotes like before. Ang dami kong fina-follow pero parang mas unti nakikita kong maganda.
- FOX TV Destiny has FOX channel already. Happy, happy me☺ I like almost everything except Cops. I ♥ Bones, NCIS, The Family Guy, Simpsons and Modern Family. I love Modern Family!
- Juicy! Haha. That's the chismosa in me. I must have my daily dose of chika and blind item! Wee. Hatinggabi na, sasagap at sasagap pa rin.
- Yukon The card game in my phone.
- White boy Word.
- Pink! Blame it on my sister who wants our room Princess-themed. My sister who's 35 years old. Paurong, haha. Anyway, I hate princess themes and think girls who think of themselves as princesses are frickin' weird but I wanna go with the theme of the room and not be contra-bulate to AC's trip. Liking my new pink dry-erase board, pink polka-dotted printer desk and pink sheets.
- Eyebrows, eyebrow pencils and brow powders Basically anything that has something to do with my brows. I overplucked mine and currently practicing self-control to not pluck out more.

Day 12 → Favorite place in the world
My room☺ when it's not frickin' hot. I'm at my most comfortable when I'm in my room.

Day 11 → Anything you want to post about.
Mi nuevo icono de moda: Olivia Palermo. Alongside Rachel Bilson's, her wardrobe is what I want to covet as of the moment. And the hair... Oh, what I wouldn't give for hair like that. I read somewhere that she is the inspiration for Blair Waldorf's character in Gossip Girl. I do see the resemblance. I covet!

Day 09 → Favorite singer.
Savage Garden
forever!
meaning, Darren Hayes. I ♥ Darren whatever his sexual preference is.
OMG, The Lover After Me ! The saddest song, in my opinion.
But I'm still holding on for you
Here I go again I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today
It's been seven months and counting
You've moved on
I still feel exactly the same
It's just that everywhere I go all the buildings know your name
Like photographs and memories of love
Steel and granite reminders
The city calls your name and I can't move on
I shouldn't be holding onIt's been seven months and counting
You've moved on
I still feel exactly the same
It's just that everywhere I go all the buildings know your name
Like photographs and memories of love
Steel and granite reminders
The city calls your name and I can't move on
But I'm still holding on for you

Day 07: Best Day of Your Life
When I was announced First Place in our Science Quiz Bee in 7th grade. How babaw, 'no? But that time it really felt like the best day of my life. I remember it so vividly, I was seating on the bleachers in the gym, it was after a First Friday mass celebration and there were some reminders being said. I sincerely thought I wouldn't place, kasi naman I was going against the best. When I heard my name, I was shocked. Super. Feeling ko nanalo ako ng Ms. Universe. Haha.
