Hmmm okay pero sa lips ano gamit mo? Huhu malabo kase mata ko minsan di ko makita kung pantay ba or what kaya pulbo na lang tapos lipstick T.T I'm working na kase pero di ako marunong magmake up lahat sila nakamake up sa office tapos ako mukhang patatas. Thank You pia hihi
the one iāve been using the most is a matte liquid lippie from ever bilena in the shade toast of new york :-) altho before i put it on, i swipe some lip balm first (any would do!) to make it last. awh thatās okayyy theres no age requirement to makeup application as long as uāre v willing to learn! grab a magazine or get on yt and uāll see what i mean heheā”

February + March Favorites
I've been meaning to post this and update you with all the stuff that's been going on in my life since the year started. I'm well aware that I've stopped posting my actual blog entries since that one I'd written about my 2018 goals (which aren't really coming through altogether but I'll get there!), and I'm sorry for that! The drive to be able to tell stories the way that I do seeped out of me and I'm sorry for it. But here I am now (finally posting before my laptop fails me again), and I'm all-out with my share of all the things I liked + loved these past two months.
Note: Kind of a long post ahead. So grab a bowl of mojos or something c:
beauty
Angle/Spoolie brush. Iāve been itching to get myself one when my makeup guru friend/classmate told me that this is purely the only magic wand she uses in doing her brows. I never really came around with it whenever I shopped but thankfully, I was just right around the makeup corner in the department store when I remembered this pending one on my invisible shopping list! I just donāt know what brand mine is but I got it from LA Girl. The angle brush is nice and soft and the spoolieās bristles go against my brows perfectly. Itās the only thing I need + brow kit!
Maybelline strobing stick. Getting this was a spontaneous decision but so far, Iāve no regrets. Although, Iāve always wanted a highlighter ever since I got a grip around makeup application. I initially had shimmering powder in compact cases in mind. And I didnāt know highlighting sticks existed! But it was what I found right there, in the Maybelline stall and the ladyās sales talk did the work. This strobing stick gives my face moonbeam traces.Ā
book/s
Walang Love by Rod Marmol. My best friend lent me this out on a whim so I didnāt really have the chance to do a background check other than skim through the back coverās synopsis. It was intriguing. So the perusing starts... and I got hooked! I couldnāt put it down up until a few more chapters that led me to the middle. It was a book filled with hugot stories and even though Iām not entirely one to be thrown into keen zealots of the hugot culture, I thought this oneās written beautifully.Ā
clothing
Black long sleeved shirt with white stripes +Ā loose pink blouse with white stripes. Both were gifts from my tita from the states. Thank God they fit or else I would be leaving them unworn and cluttered peacefully in my closet waiting for someone elseās body to fit them well. I like striped shirts and both of these feel very comfortable against my skin.
Olive green button-up. I use this as standalone tops for when I need to go out of the house/on special occasions. Once this year, I tried to pair this with one of my ordinary shirts and it just looked really nice to me. It sort of resembles a vintage parka that Iāve always wanted. So yeah, I guess we could come to terms with me calling this a faux parka haha
app/s
Rad VHS. Most of the people close to me know that Iām an old soul. So old that I would usually prefer post-processing my photos looking like they were taken in the nineties than they were taken in the present. I love light leaks, grain and the little static noises in VHS films. I treasure anything that looks like they time travelled their way to modernism. Thatās why I got so *~psyched~* when I discovered this app! Itās like Gudak but with filming capacities. By far, itās the best faux VHS app Iāve ever tried and thatās mainly because I like how natural and nostalgic my videos look!Ā
food
Go Thai. This place is slowly becoming a family favorite! I got introduced to pad thai for the first time and itās been one of my favorite dishes ever since. Their shrimp rice is also delicious. And their chicken, man! UGH.Ā Ā
Taza Mia. Alright, I gotta admit. I spend my time here more than Iāve ever spent my moolah + day in Starbucks. Iām not a Taza Mia girl nor am I an SB frequent. Iām just a plain Jane glued to her phone in cafes Taza Mia (mostly). Itās all over my hometown! Super accessible. We have a branch in school, the closest mall and by the highway. Iām not really promoting the cafe here, but one of their signature snacks snatched my mouth and love for cheese fries + jalapenos. Their MWCO (based from my research, itās an abbreviation for My Wifeās Cheesy Overload. *wuw*) is the absolute the. bomb. dot. com. Basically, itās a wild party on a plate. You got a burger patty with cheese, some bread slices and of course, a rainstorm of cheese fries with jalapenos to top everything off. I dream of finishing a plate on my own someday but itās definitely best to share with your (hindi patay-gutom) gang!Ā
S&R. Itās been a great while since weāve stuffed our mouths with S&Rās New York style pizza! Unpopular opinion: I like their pizza far better than the more famous pizza chains in town. Specifically we had cheese + pepperoni to feast on and it was deeeelightful! I love all pizzas in general, though. Any kind of pizza would do. Pizza could never do me wrong. Pizza never disappoints.
Homemade honey garlic chicken. So I cooked this with a little help from my nana in our little kitchen and Iām so proud of how it turned out. I thank Pinterest for having a ton of wonderful homey recipes and Iām glad I found the perfect one to follow. My chicken wasnāt a little too much of its flavors. It was balanced, just right. Enough sweetness, acidity and savory imbued into it. I also added a dollop of ranch on the side which complements it nicely! My family loved it and I canāt wait to make more of them.
Conti's. I had a slice. And then, boom. I found my birthday cake. That simple. I fell in love with this cake. Iām not even into cakes. Iām a pie lady. But this cake. AAAAAA. Goddamn this cake.Ā
Yogi. These Korean mozzarella hotdogs are amazing. I love mozzarella cheese above all the other cheeses so when my sister handed me the bag, I peered inside and got intrigued the moment I took one out. Itās fried, looking like a crispy and longer version of a corn dog. And itās drizzled with mayo + ketchup. When I took a bite and swallowed my first piece, thatās when I knew. I wanted to gobble the whole thing up. SO. GOOD.
tv series
The Good Doctor. Iām a fan of medical dramas. And Iām definitely counting on the fact that Iām going to be a fan of this one ever since I laid eyes on the first episode! The adaptation is beautiful, the characters are great, and Iām 100% sure that Iāll be needing a bucket for my tears and tissue boxes for my snots until the first season ends.Ā
music
In this portion of the entry, I commonly really go for specific songs that Iāve listened to instead of the whole album. (It speaks about me as a person in a birdās eye view!)
All at Once by John the Ghost. Melancholic and homesick. Those are the two things I felt despite the swarm of people Iām trapped with in our classroom. This was tears-stained-cheeks good.Ā
Finesse by Bruno Mars + Cardi B. DEFINITELY A BOP! Iām also a fan of the music video. It looks like something the mini versions of my brothers and sister from a decade ago would catch on MTV.Ā
Lemon Boy by Cavetown. Nonstop in my head with the lyrics ready to escape my mouth any time now. I love Cavetown and all his other works of art so much it wipes all the bitterness in my heart away :(Ā
From the Dining Table by Harry Styles. Iāve never seen Harry in this lighting. Heās a beautiful boy built with a voice box that only knows how to release golden melodies. This is one of the best songs Iāve listened to this year. Claiming it!
hold on by flor. This song sounds like the kind of song that plays in the background the moment you enter a pub and youāre on your way to the dance floor. Youāre looking around and you lock eyes with the brightest hues of hazel in the room. Well I donāt know about you but thatās what I felt.
Strawberries and Cigarettes by Troye Sivan. Like Iāve said before on a tweet, I think my heart was built for this song. I always feel so soft and fragile whenever I remember this. Itās so good. Too good to exist.
All the Lonely Nights in Your Life (a cover by Cavetown + Chloe). I have no words for this masterpiece. I suggest you get your ass over to Youtube right now and type the title in. This is the most beautiful cover youāll ever hear and I hate to say this, but I find it absolutely more fascinating than the original vocals. Itās just perfect. I could die right now saying it.
film/s
Ferris Bueller's Day Off (dir. John Hughes). I consider the eighties and the nineties as the two golden eras for films. This one belonged to the former and it definitely ran across the lawn to sit next to one of my all-time faves The Breakfast Club! This was a feel-good type of film. No heavy conflicts whatsoever. But I liked how lightweight it was. I wish I had Ferris Buellerās luck in life in general.
Call Me By Your Name (dir. Luca Guadagdnino). I cannot begin how beautiful this artwork of a film was. I cried and I feel so much for my boys Elio and Oliver. I love their love story. They proved that falling in love with a stranger so unanticipatedly in a country as lovely as Italia is, indeed, a work of art. Among all the other aspects in the film, I also have a profound love for Elioās parents. I wish more people were as kind and wise and loving as they were. They stood out for me, too. Just perfect. Going back to the two main lads, I STILL THINK TIMMY DESERVED THE OSCAR and I THINK ARMIE IS THE SWEETEST CO-STAR EVER (have you seen that gif with him telling Timothee to go, shine, shine, shine!)
Lady Bird (dir. Greta Gerwig). Saoirse Ronanās one of the greatest young actresses Hollywood has ever known. I, personally, was a witness to her extraordinary performance in this movie and I also think that Oscar looked better if it were in her shelf (hehe). The storylineās a variation of coming-of-age. If it was turned into a book, Iād be the first to cop it. I see a lot of myself in Lady Bird. I want to escape my little motherland, too. The place Iāve known since birth and the place that homed me and the people Iāve loved longer than my existence. I want to grow outside its fences. This film showed me how to come terms with my self as a *~teen mayhem~* and the decisions Iāve been making and Iāve yet to make in life. This was genius. Kudos to ā” Greta ā” for this million-dollar concept and her mad filmmaking gifts. Iām expecting more of her works in the years to come! Canāt wait.
Congrats on making it to the end! Youāre officially not dead. And this only signifies your love for me and what I do. Thank you for your support and your time, beautiful. You keep my planet spinning.Ā
Love,Ā
Pea ā”

Goals For The New Year
All my life, Iāve always been one to try making to-do lists for the day, the week, the month and even the year. But of course, knowing myself and the philosophy Iāve always lived /eye roll/, I tend to overlook these lists and abandon them which absolutely results to my unwarranted idleness. I could barely forgive myself for having the capacity to start things and never finishing them.
The thing about lists though, is that theyād always seem too easy to do but the motivation to finish them gets harder by the minute until you no longer want to try. Until recently... As Iām trying to live up to my age and the things where I want to thrive in a little more, I finally think Iām on my way to crossing off a lot of things in my new list.
Clear skin. I gotta get rid of my face rashes and pimples for once and for all! I learned that drinking 6-8 glasses of water can really alleviate the pains of unclear skin so let me start with that and I'll just find my tracks along the way by watching skin care videos and reading more words of advice from friends/bloggers/experts on what products to use best for my type of skin.
Better grades. Well, let me just cut to the chase here. Iāve always been plainly contented with my grades every semester. Theyāre not low enough for my family and I to have constant cryfests about; but they also werenāt high enough to make me proud. So, big cheers to that because I know I could do so much better! /letās keep the spirit flaminā like Cheetos/
More savings. Iāve actually done this last year and I was pretty happy with the amount of money I ended up gathering from the beginning of the year until halfway through it. It was a tough one but it was so helpful and life-changing considering my trait of being a big spender on stuff I donāt even need. Iām only wise when it comes to books/makeup/food. So yes, Iām bringing this back again and hopefully I get to finish it until December 31st!
More books to read. I gotta admit that I do have a collection of young adult novels and I do love to read contemporaries, romances and anything thatās total swoonsville. But I would also wanna work out on perusing a wider range of plots with classics, mystery and even dystopian. I want to expand my imagination and understanding of things.
More films to see. Out of all the things I couldnāt wait to do, this would probably be one of the first ones. I regret that I didnāt see much films as I had when I was 13 /that was my film geek year/ last year so Iām crossing all the fingers that I can for 2018 to be eventful with my toilet paper roll list of movies that I cannot wait to see!
Healthier lifestyle. Iām conscious of my body in so many angles. And Iāve always been that junk food junkie hating on everyone minding my own business. I got to say, Iāve been trying so hard to sacrifice the food I shouldnāt eat anymore and the stuff I couldnāt do anymore. But Iād always flop. Itād always seem like Iām not taking my diet seriously. I want to get myself back in the game with the new year here and the 300+ more days I can prove myself wrong. I want to look good and feel good without needing to be ashamed of anything that involves with my figure. This is a huge step for me because I want to stare at the mirror and feel genuine bliss at the sight of myself. I want to be comfortable in my own skin because I love my body and I have to love it more by becoming disciplined and having self-control.
Inspiration to write more. These past few months, Iāve been stalling with my writings. I would think of concepts and then words would drip out of my fingertips. And then Iāll just stop until the inspiration drains out. I would continue my progress with the novel I want to publish but until now, Iām still stuck with Chapter 5 /although, I know itās not an effortless process/. But this year, Iām also aiming to get back on track with my notes and my documents. I know theyāve missed me as I have missed the thunderbolt icon above my head when I write.
A great freshman year. I want to try being intrepid with my first year in college. I want to sign up for as much organizations as I can. That would be the publication + my courseās own troop. Hopefully, Iāll be taking up Psych! I donāt know what I want to do with my college life yet other than getting better at note-taking, curing my attention span of a goldfish, socializing more with other people and just surviving the whole thing itself. I know itās going to be a wild ride. But I guess, Iām ready.
