When the parents are gone, i get to go out and play...

Hey everyone! So sorry I haven't posted in awhile but as my title says my parents were out of town this past week and that means I was able to go out and get crazy. hehe Well not really but you see am an only child and my parents are super strict on me even though I am of age to be an adult. But yeah it was nice to go out and not have a curfew, having friends over and just doing stuff I normally wouldn't be able to do. I took some OOTD's to share with you all, there's only 2 because the other days I kept forgetting to take them. But yeah my parent's are back and im back to being at home trying to fix my life but that's another story.

Ok, so the first night I went out for two of my friends birthdays. We had dinner at a nice Thai food place we have by my house. Then we took some of those super asian pictures they are called Cue pictures here and there like small sticker pictures you take in booths. There really fun to take and then you decorate them with all these random things. Below are two of the many pictures we took, they aren't one's that we decorated really but they are the ones that i liked the best.

Here is a better picture of of my outfit that day.

This is my other outfit that I took a picture of it's from Easter. I went to my cousins house because my parent's were out of town, I think it was the first holiday that I wasn't with my parent's and it was really weird to me. But it was ok because I was with some of my family. But yeah I really wanted to dress springy for Easter but it ended up being so cold that day but I tried. If the print of the dress looks familiar to one of the skirts I wore before its because it's the same fabric. My mom made this dress for me using the same fabric, I really hope I learn to sew as good as my mom because I absolutely love this dress my mom made.

So yeah since I'm back im looking forward to catching up with everyone's blogs!!! :)

going back...

Hey everyone, I know it's been awhile since I've posted, I've been staying at my cousins house in the South Bay area to help her take care of her kids while her husbands out of town. It was cool to get out of the house but I had no internet there, well I did but it was if i used my cousins laptop and I didn't want to bother her with using it. But yeah that's pretty much why I haven't posted. I have so much back reading with everyone's blogs, but I will most definitely try to catch up though! :)

So while I was at my cousin's place I didn't really dress up so I didn't really take any outfit photos. But on Friday I went to CSULB's PCN, Cal state long beach is the school i went to and PCN is Pilipino Cultural Night. The Pilipino club always throws one of these shows once every year, it showcases different dances and skits that relate to the pilipino culture. It was really nice seeing a lot of my old friends. The picture below is the only picture I have of my outfit, in the picture is one of my friends that was in the show and another one of my friends I watched the show with. I wish I had a better picture of my headband though, because it's the headband I made with the ribbon that I showed you in a previous thread that I had gotten at the swap meet.

So yeah today I went to church with my parents and I decided to take some OOTD pictures, so I went outside and tried something different with the pictures. I felt so awkward taking these pictures but these were the ones that I kinda liked. hehe But yeah it was funny because my dog was following me and since I was using the self-timer I kept running back and forth and by the time I took these photos my dog was tired from running back and forth so she's just sitting and watching me. hehe

Where did spring go....

Hello everyone! It's so hot today in cali, it's in the 80's here! I really don't like hot weather, I was looking forward to spring being warm and cool and not too hot but i guess the weather here decided to skip spring and go straight to summer. Ugh this weather is so weird this weekend the weather was cold and looked like it was going to rain and now it's super hot.

Well how was everyone's weekend? I had a pretty nice weekend. On Saturday I kinda went shopping just a little bit. I was able to go to the swap meet this weekend because it was the first time i got to go in awhile because its been raining the past weekends. I got some fabric and a pair of earring.

Then later that day I went with a few of my friends to try something called the Kogi truck, it's really famous here in LA, it was on the food network. It's kind of like Korean Mexican food served in a taco truck, it was really good. I wish i took pictures of it but my friends and I were so hungry we just ate it right away. But yeah I got the Kogi short rip burrito and there tres leche cake. OMG so good, i can't even explain how yummy it was, it was just full of flavor. I was happy it was by my area and the line wasn't that long. The first time i tried the kogi truck i waited in line for about 2 hours, that's usually how long it takes, that's why i was glad i didn't have to wait that long this time.

Later that night I went to a family party to watch the Manny Pacquiao vs. Clottey fight. It was funny watching the fight with the family because there reactions to things were funny. But as for the fight i thought it was pretty boring, if you watched the fight you know why. But yeah that was cool to hang out with my family and watch the fight.

The next day my cousin came over and brought the niece and nephew over. So i pretty much played with them the whole day. They are such cuties don't you think? But yeah sorry I didn't take any outfit pictures this weekend, i kept forgetting. But I'll take some soon and I'll post those awards people are tagging me in soon too! Have a great week everyone!

The happiest place on earth...

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't updated my blog and did my rounds, I've been busy because my cousin and her husband came down for the weekend. So I've been busy entertaining them and taking them around.

But yeah I went to Disneyland on Saturday and it was pretty late notice but it was free so of course i went! :) I ended up actually getting into Disneyland with 2 of my other friends around 5 and we met up w/ my other friends that were already there. It kinda sucks we got there so late because we weren't able to do that much, but I can't complain it was free and I still had fun! :)

With my best friends since high school right after our first ride, the haunted mansion.

Trying on hats while my other friends went on the tea cup ride. I didn't want to go on it because I know i would get really sick after that ride, I don't like spinning around. But i loved these Minnie ears, they were silver and glittery, but the $20 for them were not in my budget. My friends were wearing the new Mad Hatter hats and it reminded us of Sean White! :)

This is a picture of my friends and I in front of the Castle! :)

Last but not least this was when we watched the fireworks show, this was so amazing!

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true

40 days...

So today was the start of Lent for those that are Catholic and I was having a hard time thinking of what to give up. I was thinking of giving up The Philippino channel aka TFC, but i seriously don't think i could do it, see I am such a fob!!! hehe But then I thought what the heck do I give up and I decided to give up Facebook games. I don't about any of you but I think I got obsessed with these games and play them whenever I'm bored and have nothing to do, which is all the time. So I felt like its something I can do without and it would be good for me to stop, I know I'm such a nerd. :p But I also gave up rice, this will be another hard thing for me but it would be good because I eat it so much. Oh yeah I also decided to give up chocolate because oh man I love chocolate. Let's see how this goes for me, it was already hard for me to sign on facebook and not check on my games. But I should be able to do it, some of my friends gave up a bunch of things like meat, spending money, internet. I couldn't give up any of those personally but I give them props for doing it.

Well anyways this is what i wore today, nothing much I took the picture right before I went to church to get ashes on my forehead, for ash Wednesday. I was actually inspired to wear something that I haven't worn for a really long time and it's the mustard yellow shirt. It's like a knit kind of shirt and it actually doesn't fit me like it used to but its suppose to fall over my shoulders and it still kinda does but i didn't get it in the picture. But yeah it was actually really hot today in california, that's why im wearing a short sleeve shirt. ps Sorry my dog Mocha was trying to get in the picture, Oh and i didn't get a picture of my shoes, I'm wearing my brown boots I got from the swap meet.
