don’t know where i pulled this outfit from, but this is what i ended up in. spent half the day staring at the little boxes, and numbers, and letters on excel. shoes aside, just something comfy. although, these shoes are practically painless. or maybe i’m killing my feet with my latest heeled purchases. whatever.

i realize i haven’t really posted anything much in a while. i have no idea where my time goes because i don’t do much in school either. and yet i don’t feel relaxed. i don’t know. been such a spastic bum in a rut lately.

these are all my favorites: favorite cardigan, favorite white t-shirt, favorite bag, etc. again, except for the shoes. i spread the love in that department. hehehe i didn’t really belt the whole thing today but now that i look at the pictures, maybe i should have. i also realize that my desk unit is bursting full of my books and notebooks. crazy, these things i love. =)

i’ll try and put more effort into…living. haha maybe then i’ll have funny stuff to write about. hopefully, things will be looking up starting…uh…now. =)

been gone from chictopia for a while now. don’t know why, but i’ve been real lazy to open up my computer lately. this is what i wore last monday. hahaha

been feeling uninspired lately, and my outfit choices are starting to reflect it. so, back to chictopia!

got on my shredded shirt and the hooker heels i just bought. just something easy. =)

the last picture is with one of my best friends, sam. we were at her birthday bash. it was also the birthday bash of 3 of our other friends. one crazy night. i have no outfit pictures, save for this one. wearing my marni-esque wedges from SM. LOVE YOU SAAAAM =*

i didn’t actually wear this to school. i wore a green t-shirt instead, and changed for dinner with my parents. i wouldn’t normally wear a skirt to school, because it presents quite a few challenges when you’re riding the jeepney (even in tights!). i hate having to be constantly adjusting my clothes, so i wasn’t having fun in it at school. i got stuck with it ‘cause my dad decided we’d sleep in makati again and those were the only bottoms i had left.

hope it worked. hahaha

got both the top and bottom on sale. hahaha. i have some difficulty styling the skirt. it has a bubble shape and the length is odd, so i usually end up having to use a belt. i love this top, with its billowy-ness and black embroidery.

anyway, spent most of the day in class, and then hung out with friends in katipunan for lunch. i miss freshman year, when we’d always have lunch together. everyone’s busy now so it rarely happens.

i’m feeling both hyper and sleepy right now. how odd.
sleepy = picture #1 with the awkward smile
hyper = picture#3 with the crazy cheese pose. (what was i doing??) haha

blue jeans and a white shirt = my school uniform. it’s just so much easier when you’re a commuter. this is my favorite pair of jeans ‘cause it doesn’t get looser as you wear it, but it’s got the stretch i so despereately need. my white shirt needs a replacement so bad.

i tried to dress it up today with my grandmother’s floral vest. this is my favorite vest, hands down. the quality is so excellent, and the print is so pretty. the pendant on my necklace is a charm i got off a shirt tag. hahaha

bored bored bored. swear, been so bored. the only thing keeping me busy is stat, which i am starting to abhor. gah. need. a. gimmick.

i spent 3 hours in class today talking about values and benjamin button. i loved the movie but that was NOT FUN. waste of a day. swear.

i can’t upload more pictures. nooo. i’ll try again soon.

today was just a day with myself. i really did nothing school related over the weekend. i’m sure i’ll be paying for it during the week but i’ve had plenty of practice cramming in high school. haha i cherish my weekends too much. i never do any school work until the last possible moment.

although i had stuff to do for stat class, i went out to the parlor, and had coffee, and watched bride wars by myself. i found it really funny and i liked the ending! it’s not as cliche as i thought it would be.

felt kind of girly today, hence the skirt. i’ve had this since i was in 7th grade, i think. it used to have this orange embroidery that i used to think was so cute (key phrase: used to). i removed it sometime this year when the waisted poufy skirt got cute. i was going to wear tights, but the weather’s gotten warm again. i wore my new mango cardigan in the moviehouse! the long panels are so handy. i felt like i was 7 years old in ballet class again. hahaha

i really miss going out with my friends! can’t wait for the hangouts and parties to start again. hahaha

i’m at makati shang ri-la now, and there’s not much to do. we’re still celebrating my grandparents’ golden wedding anniversary since my aunt just arrived from the states. everyone aside from my brother and i are asleep now. haha

here’s what i wore to dinner with the family! i bought the hat a few months ago at the ramp, and i don’t wear it often ’cause sometimes it makes me look like a fortune teller. but anywaaaay, i wanted to try out the whole salmon and navy color combo. not sure how that worked out.

got the top at the topshop sale! and the leggings are a pair my grandmother gave me. wheee. the outfit is so comfy, although it’s not so flattering.

i apologize for the crappy pictures. there’s no place to put the camera in the room. must. get. a tripod.

today was another draining saturday, no thanks to class. hope tomorrow’s a bit more eventful. and there’s always next weekend to look forward to. my friends are what keep me sane, i swear.
