Get-away

We spent this Christmas with my grandparents in Bicol, it's a 12-hour drive from Manila. I had a lot of fun, we visited lots of beaches, I even snorkeled with the whaleshark!






These photos are of the same beach, it's the first beach that we went to when we got to the province, I think they call it Dangkalan beach. It's amazing, the view was breath-taking, only problem is, it's too shallow so I have to get really really far from the shore so I can swim haha. 



Beautiful Oops is my favorite present! Mom gave it to me, it's not full of words but it totally changed my perspective. This is the only present that I got during Christmas day because as I said we were in the province, we only brought the gifts for the people there. 


Bee? Moth? What? Haha. This is really cute so I thought I'd share this to you, I saw this cute little thing on the rocks, the beach where this wonderful thing showed up was Subic Matnog, we went island hopping there. 


Second to the last place we visited, it's one of the islands when we went island hopping. I've never appreciated nature so much since I got to this place. 

P.S. These photos are from my phone, I'll make a detailed post when I collect the photos from the dslr. 








Welcome to my phone

I want to update my blog so bad so uhhm forgive me. These photos are probably results of my vanity, they're not looks, they're everyday outfits. The first photo was when I went shopping with Mom, second is when I was in the province, I loved wearing dresses during that time haha and lastly was when we visited Mom in the hospital, I was wearing sweater because it was raining so hard. 

Happy New Year guys! What's your resolution? Mine would be get over the past and stop procrastinating. 

P.S. I just realized that I'm not so vain at all :D

Too young for a real motorcycle

Okay so these photos that I'm about to post can be a bit boring 'cause it's me haha. My brother bought me this motorcycle sunglasses in their kids church, 'cause they get uhm toy money there and they use that to buy toys and books and others, I used to go to that church when I was 10-12 yrs old, truth be told, I haven't bought my brothers a single toy that time haha 'cause I always use the toy money on myself, I buy books with it. When my brother got me this, my mom was like 'I wish you could realize how thoughtful your brothers are, wish you could be like that.' And I was like okayy with a smirk.



Pouting Bianca. Pout bebe pout.


About to smile pose :L


See how I like blurry shots, flaws can't be seen that much haha lol kidding, what can I do? I looked good well maybe not good but I looked okay on these blurry photos. :p

Diy and new shoes

I've been very busy for the past days, which is why I am able to update my blogspot just now. On October 7, it is our field demonstration and it's theme is retro so our outfits are very vibrant and bling bling. I asked my mom to buy me new flats, a colorful one but she was so nice that she bought me two :D

So it's a red flats and a pastel bink brogues. It's from Melissa. I'm really happy about it, and my aunt's gonna be here on October 6 which means more shopping and my dad's gonna be here on December which means more and more shopping!

Next is the diy, I've had this sweater since I was like 9 or 10. I got it from a thrift shop, and I don't like how it fits to me now so I decided to transform it, I made it into a shirt because it's so awesome, I can't afford to throw it away or give it :p

Before

After

I'm wearing the shirt with a grey vest. I know I look horrible haha

Cliche'

This is definitely not the first time I am gonna procrastinate, in fact, I procrastinate most of the time. I'm suppose to finish our report now and do our environmental scanning but my mom has always said, to never force yourself to do anything 'cause the outcome would turn out wrong or...ugly (which is kind of likely I think)

I want to post something today but this day has been woeful enough that I couldn't take pictures worthy of a blog post so now I decided to gather my favorite tumblr posts and share it to you.















a random cool collage, adorable photo of Angelina Jolie, burberry editorials?, daphne groeneveld collage, painting of abbey lee, random lady with pretty top, cute hanne, flawless photo of sasha, elle cover: fei fei sun was there, tentacles chandelier, pink hair!!!, frida and some model?, daphne-fierce daphne, anja konstantinova?

I just realized, they were mostly with pink, but they don't look like the 'girly' pink. I hate pink but whatever. 
All those photos are from my tumblr, http://sadbeak.tumblr.com/

Salamat Pagi

Today, we went to NCCA to visit the exhibit and watch an Indonesian woman dance. We were really glad and obliged to be there, our Mapeh teacher chose us out of all the sections he handles. I do hope we didn't disappoint him with how we acted in the activity.

Marconi girls were the first one to get to NCCA and we were waiting for the boys to come, as we were waiting, we roamed around the art gallery, the paintings were A-W-E-S-O-M-E BUT I'm pretty sure I can make something like those artworks. :p















There are still more paintings but I didn't manage to take photographs of all. They're mostly out of acrylic, root beer, wood glue, and spray paint. 


She's the Indonesian dancer, we call her Ba Umi, Ba is a word which here means 'Ate' or in English, 'older sister' and Umi is her name. She was really impressive and graceful.

This is definitely a day well spent and also, I think my friends in school and I are joining a Life group!

I need a hero

Of course no one would notice that I'm back 'cause no one's visiting my blog daily nor following me as I am following none here. HAHA. I kind of needed a break from blogging, no not really blogging but staying on the computer for so long since for the past months, school's giving me a hard time and I thought, getting a break from blogging would help and it did. Well yeah I couldn't stand not checking my facebook or anything but at least my hours on the computer lessened.

Exam week has just passed and this morning, we knew our scores, I admit it, some of my scores were really bad, I feel ashamed, tho I somehow got the same scores last year, like my score in Filipino would always be average even if I'm a Filipino haha or my score in English would always be high even if I don't study 'cause yeah English is just a subject of common sense or my score in Math would always be low 'cause I always knew that no matter what I do, I can't seem to be good at Math, I really envy my brothers 'cause they're good in Math, just earlier my brother told my mom that he got a perfect score in Math and at the back of my mind, I was thinking, 'How could you be that good? When I was your age, my scores were average and as I get older, my scores in Math get worse.' I am aware that my dad's good in Math, I saw his report card in my grandma's house and I was like 'Oh how I wish my grades were that high or at least close to Dad's grade.' And also, did God forbid that I could be good in Math, wasn't there any way before that my Dad's skills in numbers be transferred on me even just a bit? So yeah as I said, my scores last year were kinda similar to my score this quarter's test but I didn't expect that I would bring my dumbness until second year. I thought that somehow there would be a twist of fate, as silly as it may sound, I dream of having the highest score in Algebra, some people may not wish for that 'cause they always are on top but ughhhh can I be not creative at all and just be good in Math? HAHA. I remember my best friend, Diana, she told me that when people are good in Arts, they're not that good in Math and when people are interested in Math, they could find Art a boring subject, if that is so, I should be like Picasso now. :-)) Now I know that I should exert effort to somehow have an 'okay' score. I really really like to change, specifically on my study habits, that's why I promise to take time and study, I hope that this promise won't be like those promises that I have pronounced and ended up broken.

Because the past weeks were the submission of requirements, I have been busy making my projects therefore didn't have much time for sketching or painting but I kind of managed to paint when I was bored or when I didn't feel like accomplishing my tasks.

I name that one the Triple A haha as you can see, that's Adele, Abbey Lee and Anja Konstantinova. I sketched Adele first but hey there's still a lot of spaceeeee. There's no color more beautiful than pastel colors, pastels are simple yet they look divine. I don't know if that's just me but whotever.



This one, I already posted it on facebook but what is it to you??? Lols I sound so mean but yeah it's Abbey again! Abbey is one of my favorite models, she's gorgeous and she's so talented. I admire her style too, it's original.

It's senseless for me to name this post, 'I need a hero' I couldn't think of anything but since I watched Shrek 1 and 2 earlier, I just realized that Shrek 2 was the best!!!! It was full of adventure and it's silly. My favorite was the scene when Jennifer Saunders sang 'I need a hero', I want to steal her voice. It's so nice. I was dancing when the song reached the chorus hahaha. Here it is

Playlist!

It's 12 in the afternoon and I just woke up, the first thing I did was put on my earphones and listened to my favorite songs, it's one way to have a beautiful start this day. :) So uhm I just want to share to you my playlist, these songs are the songs that you will see me listening to often. :) They're my most played, they make me happy and lastly they help me, the words are soothing. My favorite songs are basically the songs which I can relate on to, so maybe if you take time to listen to the songs which I would be sharing, you would know  a part of me. :)

It's Who You Are by Jessie J, I just started listening to it last night, it made me crack a smile when I first heard it, I've encountered bad, really bad experiences and sometimes it just makes me think that I'm one of the most unfortunate people ever. Sometimes I get so clueless 'cause there are things that happen to me that I know I don't deserve, when I heard this song, it made me remember all the bad things and I just wanted to cry but this song moved me, 'It's okay not to be okay,' that's what Jessie J said, and it kind of gave me hope.


Next is Run Forward by Audrey Assad, I've liked this song since last year and I liked it even more now, I found this song because of my mom. So uhm I like this guy a lot but I don't know how to say this but it's just complicated, when you hear about the story, I bet you'll say that I'm so stupid, that I should give up but uh I don't know, I can't force myself to stop liking him 'cause I do like him, in fact I've admired him for the last two years and no other guy can be of comparison to him. We seldom talk and he says he likes me too but there are times when I don't feel it, sometimes I don't get him so uhm I offer this song to him, I always remember him whenever I hear this song. This song captivated my heart because of the part wherein it says 'Is it too much to ask that your heart be revealing just a little bit.'


With Everything by Hillsong, this song has changed me in a lot of ways, I first heard this when I attended Ignite this May and I cried while I was singing this song with the whole crowd, it made me reflect, and I realized that I wasn't acting like a human, I do a lot of wrong things and it makes God cry, we all know that nobody's perfect but as long as you can change something for the better, change. Tho I have two favorite worship songs, Nothing is Impossible by Planetshakers, and this one, With Everything by Hillsong, this song taught me to discern before I do something, this song has changed me, and I can say that things are getting smoother and smoother as the days pass. 


Every Rose has its Thorn by Miley Cyrus, every once in a while Miley Cyrus impresses me, firstly during the release of the Climb, and then When I Look at You and now, this song, it is kinda depressing but this is reality, even tho how hard you try to make things up, even tho how hard you try to plan things, even tho how hard you try to fix things, something always goes wrong. I guess this is how life goes, things get better, you get all giddy and happy but next thing you know, something went wrong again. Life is like this, bad things happen but you know you're a winner when you don't give up. Just keep going, always keep on your mind that you've never had enough. 


The Call by Regina Spektor! <3 I knew about this song because of Narnia, it's Narnia:Prince Caspian's soundtrack, this song has one of the best flow of beat. It's very relaxing, luckily this song has a very good message too, I really can't explain it but I definitely can relate with it. This song has kinda taught me to hold on, it also taught me how to deal with rejection. My favorite part is 'Just because they can't feel it too, doesn't mean that you have to forget.' :)

I have more songs to share! But listen to these songs for now, I hope you get inspired as much as I did. :) Ciao! Watch out for the next set of playlist soon. :D

Alexander McQueen!

Alexander McQueen's footwear always makes me drool, his designs are divine and it inspires me since I want to be a fashion designer and also because I'm interested to fashion. I've always wanted to know how to draw shoes  'cause before I suck, I literally suck at drawing them so just to see if I've improved, I copied some of Alexander McQueen's booties.
It's a super cool ankle booties, its heels are like metals aaah it's just so cooooool! I copied it from this photo it's beautiful isn't it? :)

And secondly, this booties
When I drew that, I haven't bought the pencils so uhm yeah I'm not good at coloring and mixing hues. That beaut was copied from this. I couldn't be bothered to draw the details on the heels and platforms, my hands are gonna hurt. Haha. So I decided to just use a black marker to fill the heels and platforms. :)

So it never stopped raining and it was really cold, the only thing I wore today was sweatshirts (luckily I have a lot) and tights or denim shorts. This day turned pretty well, uhm well today's a productive day haha. I got a lot of sleep, I sketched, I bonded with my brothers and and and.. :D I felt the need to buy decent drawing materials so I asked our nanny to come with me in the bookstore, even tho some streets were a bit flooded, our nanny and I managed to go, just to fill my need of buying pencils and stuffs. I didn't want to freeze nor get sick, that's why I wore jacket, long sleeves and tights. 
Yeyyy I'm in space! Uhh so yeah I installed gimp and I tried changing the background. Haha. My edit is not bad for a starter. :p I spent half an hour watching tutorials in youtube. :D 

So back to the need,
 I bought  a new sketchpad and some pencils. 
The two pens aren't new as well as the colored pencils and one of the markers. I'm so happy 'cause finally I got decent pencils for sketching and shading. Haha!
When we got home, I went to my room and drew right away, my mood is kind of like, 'your wildest dreams mood.' :p
There's Anne of Green Gables, a hippo sandwhich, two heads become one and a monster! I'm looking forward to color it in gimp, maybe some other time when I'm already good at it. :)
