Love Chic! These two are way tooooo gorgeous. One of my orgmates was so into Shai, he said she's the type of girl he'd want to marry. Funneeeee! Oh well, someday, me and my bf will set-up a blog like them. Seriously. Yes, seriously. Watch out for that. HAHA!

Aisa and Melai, the ever-energetic duo! They made the talk so lively and engaging, they're angels! Haha. Thank you again!

Not only that, Miss Aisa was so kind to have me as her intern during one of her shoots for Manila Bulletin. It's this coming Tuesday and the thought really excites me. This is my first time to join such an activity. Hope it turns out well. :)

Teaching for the UPCAT

The University of the Philippines College Admission Test (UPCAT) is an annual entrance examination held by the premier state university here in our country. Thousands of students aspire to take their college degree in this university. Thus, I feel very lucky and proud that I am a student in this reputable institution.

Here we are taught that nothing is impossible, impossible just means you need more time.
So if you are given a certain problem, you are EXPECTED to solve it, even if it seems so damn 'impossible'. :)

To give back and possibly share this experience to the incoming freshmen, I volunteered to teach for the UPCAT review to PIQC, a chinese school in QC. We, the members of UP Engineering Society, taught these students Math, Reading Comprehension & English, Physics, Filipino, and Science. Whew!

This is what I wore for that day.

Overall, it was a fun and fulfilling event. I never thought I have the potential to be a teacher. Hee hee. :)

My favoritEST red shorts

Whenever I want a carefree, yet somehow seductive look, this pair of red shorts is my saviour! I wore it countless times already, but I decided to feature three of the contrasting tops I worked it with.
I paired it with florals, animal print, and the effortless white top
.

Impromptu Shoot calls for Resourcefulness



I just went to school in hope of enlisting some more subjects when one of the organizations I'm affiliated with, UP Circuit, said we're gonna have an impromptu photoshoot.

So on my everyday casual attire, my bare face with just a pop of lipstick,at EEE building's grassy rear, we had some random photoshoot. It really pays to be prepared, huh? :)

~Thanks Rolf Ocampo [mr. photographer]
