No other word can describe what happened on March 7, 2009 (at least the 5pm onwards). I was invited by Kami-chuu days ago to the Manila Japanese School annual festival. A lot of things happened. And when I say a lot, I mean a lot! But before sharing an awesome experience, let me rant about how my morning went...<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Oh so, it's another academic-related thing: a meet-up at UP Diliman Main Library at 10am. This will be for our OrCom104 interview requirement regarding Subordinate-Boss relationship in the Workplace. Anyhoo, our interviewee arrived late - really 1pm late. Our interview ended at 2pm and my camera was being nasty the entire time. I dunno what it's problem was. It can't seem to take on the live view mode for more than 30seconds.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbjvQgRD5bI/AAAAAAAAANY/fUTCE_Zwidk/s1600-h/DSC_3568.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbjvQgRD5bI/AAAAAAAAANY/fUTCE_Zwidk/s320/DSC_3568.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312258827301938610" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ L-R: Zid, Lara, Patsy</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">We didn't have anything to do, so while waiting, we did the usual camwhoring.</span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/Sbjv9iVpnYI/AAAAAAAAANg/gWd6Ig0MQoc/s1600-h/DSC_3626.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/Sbjv9iVpnYI/AAAAAAAAANg/gWd6Ig0MQoc/s320/DSC_3626.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312259600952171906" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ L-R: Patsy, our interviewee, Zid, Lara</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Just posing for documentation purposes..</span><br /></div><br />I took the taxi back to Manila (cause dang! my head felt like splitting - blame it on me and my mom's sensitivity to the heat) and arrived by 3pm. Then I had to shower and remove the dust of the day and freshen up before I change into my cross-dressing attire. Hurrah! While I was showering, pics and vids from my Potassium (camera) were being transferred to Calcite (laptop).<br /><br />Right after showering, the doorbell buzzed. I was expecting Chippy to come in since I didn't lock the main door (I did lock the room and the shower). It was good that he didn't - since with him were Kuya Von, Kuya Raph, and Kuya Janno (should I be calling Raph and Janno as Kuya?). I can't believe Chippy brought them to my doorstep. Not that I mind, but I was surprised cause he didn't say anything. He was just supposed to fetch me and bring my purchases from <a href="http://aicirtapsy.blogspot.com/2009/03/perya-fashion-gala-cosplay-event.html">yesterday</a>.<br /><br />Right. I was feeling lazy so we took the taxi to Adamson University. These days, I am always lazy. Plus I needed to put on my wig and final touches to my 'boy' look - a good excuse to ride the taxi. At their school, we met up with the others who just finished their classes and together we rode the LRT from United Nations Avenue to EDSA and the MRT from Taft Avenue to Guadalupe and finally, the jeepney from Guadalupe to Market! Market!<br /><br />We got lost for a bit since we didn't know where the Manila Japanese School is located exactly. Kuya Jan fulfilled his external-something (I forgot, *slaps forehead*) position in the organization and asked the security guards for direction. We finally found the area, and boy there where lots of cars in line around the school it was just so hard to miss.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/102/500x500/17/DSC-3635.jpg?et=fC3bErCm5hw9q%2C39cK2%2Bcw&nmid=216737235"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 366px; height: 243px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/102/500x500/17/DSC-3635.jpg?et=fC3bErCm5hw9q%2C39cK2%2Bcw&nmid=216737235" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ It super felt like Japan!</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/102/500x500/43/DSC-3682.jpg?et=04ggRQVNfgTdlJw9%2CxFUAg&nmid=216737235"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 377px; height: 250px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/102/500x500/43/DSC-3682.jpg?et=04ggRQVNfgTdlJw9%2CxFUAg&nmid=216737235" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ Group shot.

I understood very little words but can't open my mouth in response even in Tagalog or English out of my awe. I'd say I was culture shocked.

The buildings, the field, the adults, the kids, the food, the music, and the dancing were so Japanese. *jawdrop* I can't wait to try every food on sale. But they were expensive. I had to hold on to my purse or else I won't have any budget left for cosplay.

Not to forget, we had green tea and strawberry milk. If I remember correctly, I got jealous because Misa was drinking the peach-flavored one before I finally bought one. 60pesos - expensive.

People were frozen, everyone was staring up the night sky watching the firecrackers light up the heavens. It was as if time froze.

'He' wasn't beside me, but with me are special people whose friendship I won't exchange for that single person's love. I was with my friends from Adamson University. We've known each other for a few months only, some I only met a few days ago, others just a while ago. Somehow its feels like a big family. Warm and happy. Everytime I think about it, it stirs something inside me. It feels funny and painful. Like the feeling when you're inlove. It runs through me like electricity. Oh yes, I am in love with someone. But I forget about that kind of love when I'm with these wonderful people. They surely are my God-given gifts. I hope I could be God-given to them too. </blockquote><br /><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" >Yosh! Emo-time over.

But we had to go home. In the bus were, Misa, Chippy, me, Jeeb (chip-X-dale), Mikko(-sama), and Kuya Jan. </span>I fell asleep for for a while and felt something weird, turns out, Chippy was about to take a photo of me sleeping. Noooooooo!!!!!! He said, I had a smile on my face. But before we rode the bus, I was almost hit by it. Mikko told me that 'it'll be sweeter next time', a line he took from the song which was playing inside the bus at that time. When we got off the bus, a stranger came up to us and returned my phone, turns out, I left it on the bus - fell out of my pocket. *slaps forehead again* I'm such a clumsy girl. Talk about a Series of Unfortunate Events. I'm not in some Lemony Snicket novel am I? And Mikko piped in, "I told you I'll be sweeter next time". LOL! That one made me laugh inside, I just wasn't able to show it on the onset of what just happened. He's definitely Mikko-sama, and God. XD<br /><br />Jeeb suddenly disappeared. No, he went home ahead. Misa was fetched by her mom (or was it grandma). Kuya Jan and Mikko-sama walked on to their house somewhere near EDSA-Taft Avenue while Chippy and I headed to Ermita. Walking along the streets of Faura, we got hungry and decided to eat at Jollibee as inspired by a text message which came through Chippy's mobile from Kuya Jan. It says they (Mikko and Jan) were eating together. *flash YAOI theatre*<br /><br />I got home around 11 or 12 or was it 1am already? I don't remember. I haven't had this much fun in months already.

Thinking of new pictures from him, I hurried to his site. I found behind the scenes clips of his underwater photography and tips & techniques in underwater fashion photography.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">I'm so jealous. This is my ultimate desires combined: scuba diving, photography, and fashion. Today's feature is Hannah Fraser. This clip was shot in Cebu, Philippines. I wish I knew this back then, I would have spent 5k airfare to see the shoot live - underwater. I'd love to assist - to be the one handing the octopus/regulator to the models. *swoon* Anyway, here goes:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hYE2ppzqQg8&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hYE2ppzqQg8&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: justify;">She's so famous as a living mermaid model that she was featured in this news program:<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ExP5Q5UO3B0&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ExP5Q5UO3B0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /></div></div></div><br />Now I want a mermaid tail of my own. I just need to find out where to buy wetsuit material cloth like neoprene? or Lycra? around 1.5 mm thickness? and old fins.<br /><br />I am looking forward to summer. I will meet Kenzo-san (I forgot his whole name errrr) again for another group dive at Sta. Cruz islands. Maybe this time, I can go with them to Malamawi? or Tawi-tawi? Hopefully. This time, we can discuss photography and scuba diving. Maybe I can convince him to lend me his gears for an underwater fashion shoot? Or maybe he'd just make me his model. Whichever.<br /><br />Hurrah for scuba diving! Hurrah for photography! Hurrah for fashion!<br /><br />Goals this summer:<br /><ul><li>enroll in Nihongo class</li><li>continue violin lessons at Manila Philharmonic Orchestra</li><li>work with pro fotogs in Zamboanga</li><li>conceptual & glamour shoot with friend models</li><li>prepare Kanda, Hinata, Grell, Katsura, Kagura cosplays </li><li>dive at Cebu</li><li>read manga (Bleach, Naruto, KHR, DGM, Gintama)</li><li>watch anime (Jigoku Shoujo, KHR, DGM, Gintama, Naruto)</li><li>buy a HOYA CPL and polarizing filter</li><li>and forget about HIM (dang boy!)<br /></li></ul>High and expensive goals...

Pray for me. I don't want to repeat the subject. I don't want to be left behind by my batchmates. I don't want for my scholarship to be gone. I can't have my mom pay for my tuition and ask for additional living expenses. Oh no..<br /><br />It's April 2. Supposed to be the last day of exam. But damn NatSci professor for not showing up. Though I did not study much, I wanted the hell week to end. We went home with a note to wait for the take home exam to be uploaded. Ugh. Essay in the night. And tomorrow is Ozine Fest day 1.<br /><br />Speaking of Ozine. I won't be able to go on day 1. Since I have to submit my printed exam tomorrow. And my Ciel Phantomhive costume isn't ready yet.<br /><br />I have to jet now. Cosfriends will arrive for the sleepover & pancit canton party. I can't wait. This will be fun.

I know I said I hate Mondays and Thursdays, but I love this Thursday. I was on my way to K.Ron's dormitory at Intramuros and I had to pass through the underpass. I saw the rabbits again which I saw last pre-Valentine's day. I didn't buy the rabbit though they kept calling for me through their sweet round eyes. On my way to SM Manila with K.Ron this time, I bought my first rabbit: Schneizel.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbkWcLaXTVI/AAAAAAAAAOA/MWpgakq5ls8/s1600-h/S4024484.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbkWcLaXTVI/AAAAAAAAAOA/MWpgakq5ls8/s200/S4024484.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312301908815727954" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbkWbO8nrII/AAAAAAAAANw/3nOXUTcb5Wc/s1600-h/S4024482.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbkWbO8nrII/AAAAAAAAANw/3nOXUTcb5Wc/s200/S4024482.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312301892584844418" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbkWbuubOlI/AAAAAAAAAN4/nWMCYHuyuH4/s1600-h/S4024477.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/SbkWbuubOlI/AAAAAAAAAN4/nWMCYHuyuH4/s200/S4024477.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312301901115243090" border="0" /></a>Isn't she cute?

But Sleepy Schneizel is so cute. It's like he's begging me..<br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br /></div>Patsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01034353062225010285noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27153775.post-21835680544640365592009-03-11T17:20:00.002+08:002009-03-12T21:40:57.481+08:00Casual Attire<div style="text-align: justify;">Ohayooo! Uhm, it's already afternoon... I did wake up to a good morning though. After my daily rituals, I headed to the bank to withdraw the moolah mom sent. I had to pay the reservation fee for the October 10, 2010 wedding at the Manila Cathedral before anybody else takes the slot. Too bad, I can't pay without attending a seminar. So for those planning to get married at the Manila Cathedral, do this:<br /><br /><ol><li>Visit the Chancery.<br /></li><li>Obtain a list of requirements.With the complete list and birth certificate of bride/groom and authorization letter (if the attendant is neither the bride nor groom), take the seminar which they give every 2pm of Thursday.</li><li>With a certification from that seminar and the list from the chancery, you may now pay your reservation fee.</li><li>Note: Bride and groom must be in the Philippines a month before the wedding for a couple seminar...With a certification from that seminar and the list from the chancery, you may now pay your reservation fee.</li></ol>So I went to see Chippy and Monique at Adamson University after that defeating purpose in going to the Manila Cathedral.. I just wasted precious taxi-money (I didn't know how to get there). We went to Divisoria to look for our cloths but we ended up not finding the right one and eating at Jollibee. Then we took the Sangandaan jeepney to Malabon. During the ride, we talked about funny text messages and anime... That was a fun ride. Back at the seamstress' house, I asked for the swatches of the cloths and buttons I needed.<br /><br />I saw the cute kittens again. *swoon*<br /><br />Monique has a 3pm class so we took the LRT back to UN Avenue. We were supposed to go to SM Manila for a DDR session. She was supposed to teach me how to play that. I haven't tried it - ever. But there wasn't any more time. As she headed to her class, I tried to go inside the campus by pretending to inquire about a transfer into the school. Unfortunately, I didn't have any of my IDs with me. In the end, my English accent was useless and I wasn't able to go inside. Instead, Chippy and I went with Kuya Von and Kuya Richard to play random games at the arcade. Fun fun fun!!<br /><br />Back at the school, K.Von and K.Richard went in for their org meeting and Chippy went with me to Kalaw Avenue. We passed by the canteen and I bought lotsa sweets including an egg pie which later on gave me a headache. K. Art said it was due to the heat. I have a feeling it was because of the egg pie.<br /><br />And if you're wondering who's gonna get married, it's me. My parents had me engaged to someone already when I as still young and I just found out. He's a cute guy but not the one I love. Ugh. But it won't hurt to try and love him neh? No. I just can't. Anyway, I'm just following my parents' wish. I owe my life to them. By 2010, I might quit university and move to another country with the guy's family. So goodbye. And by the way, the wedding is not mine. It's of my beloved aunt to her beloved guy. Did I get you?<br /><br />^_^ Listening to: Monochrome Kiss - performed by SID<br /></div>Patsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01034353062225010285noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27153775.post-58155283390196598342009-03-09T22:41:00.000+08:002009-03-12T10:42:00.836+08:00Sweat and Laughter<div style="text-align: justify;">Hello Monday! I hate Mondays. And Thursdays. Why? Because MTH means 8:30-4pm class – all of which are major subjects, except NatSci5 which is practically a nonsensical class. I don’t learn anything in NatSci5 except the confirmation of my stock knowledge. Monday classes include OrCom 107 (Intercultural Comm), OrCom 140 (Theories in Organizational Comm), and OrCom 104 (Interpersonal Comm). The only subject I like is OC104 because we get to watch porn interesting films. I also enjoy OC140 but only because BURN is our instructor and I get to use my laptop in class without being caught that I was going online. See, I’m a no-good student. I wonder how I got into this prestigious university when I don’t have the will to study. Laziness always kicks in. I just want to eat, sleep and be a couch potato.<br /><br />At lunch, I ate at KFC Faura-Taft with my friend Chippy. We talked about his issues and my issues – mostly my issues *evil laugh*. It’s always fun to talk to Chippy, serious issues become funny while still maintaining a level of seriousness. How he does that? Ask him.<br /><br />My PE2 TPBW class had their final exams last week. But I was absent because of financial issues. I didn’t have the money to pay for the bowling at Paeng’s. I contacted my ex-classmate and decided to join their section for my finals. Their class begins at 3pm and ends at 5pm. This means I had to be absent from my NatSci5. Thank God for my good classmate – Patty de Chavez. She offered to sign my name in the NatSci5 attendance since one more absence will get me a grade of 5. Nooooo~!!!<br /><br />I went home and contacted my instructor in PE, informing him that I’ll be joining his 3-5pm class for my finals and completion of 20 games in a semester. But his reply came late, telling me that I’ll have my finals tomorrow instead. So much for skipping NatSci5 for PE finals.. Hello free time.<br /><br />At 5pm, I met Chippy at Kalaw Avenue. Along the streets, we saw Misa waiting to cross the pedestrian lane. We had a little more time in our hands and got some drinks for ourselves. 6pm, Chippy and I met Monique and Kuya Jan at Adamson University so we could go together to Malabon to have our cosplay stuff done.<br /><br />CRAP! I’ve never seen the LRT line so full of people. We waited really long till we were able to ride the train. Luckily, the people I was with were fun. We talked about many things, from languages, to songs, anime, and people who were sleeping inside. Time flew by and we found ourselves at the seamstress’ home *time travel*. We walked to the LRT Monumento station and off our own stops. I arrived at my house by 10pm and I fell asleep almost instantly.<br /><br />P.S. The kitties at the seamstress’ house were so cute. I wanted to take home one but I can’t have a pet at home since no one would care for the poor kitty when I’m gone. <span style="display: block;" id="formatbar_Buttons"><span class="" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_JustifyFull" title="Justify Full" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 13);ButtonMouseDown(this);"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif" alt="Justify Full" class="gl_align_full" border="0" /></span></span><br /><br /></div>Patsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01034353062225010285noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27153775.post-51510112416344653642009-03-10T16:16:00.000+08:002009-03-12T10:40:30.581+08:00Birthday Boy<div style="text-align: justify;">Hello crappy Tuesday! Another day I don't want. It's Comm3 and Ling100 day and I am scared of my Comm3 professor. I've never passed a quiz - ever. And I am always sleepy in class despite my active recitations. In Linguistics class, I was nervous cause I haven't finished reading the given fotox. God saved me when our Ling100 professor asked us to help her check our Blue Books from last exam. Holy morphology. Almost everyone failed - almost - including me: I failed by 20 points. Those damn 20 points. Over all item is 206 and passing is 60%. I wish the earth would open up and swallow me.

And just this March, a Sunday means filming day. Last week, March 1, I first appeared in a local TV show as a co-host. I feel I didn’t perform well despite having memorized my lines. But apparently, they liked me – so they called me back for another episode. This time, episode 28, season 3 of MMDA on the Road will air on Friday, March 13 at 7-8pm on NBN Channel 4. This episode I think is highly political. The fact that a law enforcer / politician is the main person in the show.<br /><br />For this episode my co-host was Kuya Mark, a fellow SYVAP member. At 39.5 degree Celsius, we had our filming at Luneta Park, the side near Quirino grandstand. Boy! I got sunburned. Filming ended by 2:30pm and we ate at Chowking care of Direk. Meow! Sago’t Gulaman in this heat is the best.<br /><br />Afterwards, the group went back to the studio to film another show (I think it was Convergence) while I rode the jeepney back to my house. At home, I took my Potassium and went to Robinson’s Place Manila Midtown Atrium – a commercial launch of ZX Online Journey to Immortality was being held there. Far from what I expected, there were a few people gathered – all of them gamers rather than cosplayers / fanboys. Of course it wasn’t a cosplay/anime/game/toy/manga convention, but the Gosiengfiao sisters were there and in cosplay too! Hmm, I wonder what I am implying here but perhaps they already went home since it’s already 3pm.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/104/500x500/9/DSC-3848.jpg?et=6qepgr73YeGJmm8DoDSR%2CQ&nmid=217068297"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 245px; height: 368px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/104/500x500/9/DSC-3848.jpg?et=6qepgr73YeGJmm8DoDSR%2CQ&nmid=217068297" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ Miss Alodia Gosiengfiao (Dark Side)</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/104/500x500/30/DSC-3869.jpg?et=O%2C1vNQirWXDBLCjAyb57CA&nmid=217068297"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 369px; height: 245px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/1/photos/104/500x500/30/DSC-3869.jpg?et=O%2C1vNQirWXDBLCjAyb57CA&nmid=217068297" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ The Gosiengfiao sisters</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/3/photos/104/500x500/7/DSC-3846.jpg?et=FmeCN5lPF26A3JXdQUWMUw&nmid=217068297"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 260px; height: 391px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/3/photos/104/500x500/7/DSC-3846.jpg?et=FmeCN5lPF26A3JXdQUWMUw&nmid=217068297" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ Miss Ashley Gosiengfiao (Light Side)</span><br /></div>At the event, I met up with Ronal Ramos because he needed to borrow my 18-105mm VR AF-S Nikkor lens. With him were the other CPG (Cosplay Photographers’ Guild) photogs whom I was supposed to meet with that morning at UPD for a CPG. We had a small shoot outside Midtown and we used Ron’s tripod and my Potassium (camera). By 5pm, they had to go to Roxas Boulevard for a photowalk while I went to have my nails done. Yey! I believe the last time I had my nails done by a professional was November.

Happy Andrada had her fashion gala for a charity with the theme PERYA. It's a Filipino word which means carnival and of course it has several features which can only be seen in Philippine carnival scenes. For this event, Mr. Azrael Coladilla pushed for the inclusion of a cosplay competition and I volunteered for this along with volunteering for the ToyCon this June.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/3/photos/101/500x500/86/DSC-3071.jpg?et=52DFeMbwyTZuIktu%2CtSS2g&nmid=216690765"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 218px; height: 328px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/3/photos/101/500x500/86/DSC-3071.jpg?et=52DFeMbwyTZuIktu%2CtSS2g&nmid=216690765" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ Mr. Azrael Coladilla</span><br /><br /></div>Earlier, I went to Greenhills with Chippy. I introduced the Zamboanga version of the Malaysian satay which is called Satti - a beef/chicken with rice meal overflowing with rich and thick spicy sauce. *typing this made my mouth water* Afterwards, he went with me to Lynelle's to purchase a wig for my Ciel Phantomhive cosplay and a plastic 'head' mannequin for my wig so I can style it with wax myself.<br /><br />Much much earlier than that, I bought a mini fan that runs on batteries at Japan Home Center, a regular-sized vase for the flower -blank- gave me last March 4 and peanut butter. I had the craving to eat butter that time. But I had my lunch at KidoManga, and ordered a chicken curry croquette which I didn't finish even after 2 days and a strawberry milk tea which left me wanting for round 2.<br /><br />Going back to the proper timeline...<br /><br />The meet up for the Perya volunteers was supposed to be at 5:30pm, so I rushed to A.Venue Hall without a sweat via taxi and I arrived on time. I feel bad that I had to leave behind Chippy, who has an org meeting at school and leaving my purchased goodies with him. Anyhoo, at the venue, people were still fixing up several things. And I got to chat nonsense with a GMA-7 cameraman. Hit me with a lightning rod, I didn't even know who Happy Andrada was. My phone died - no battery. So I frantically looked for a place where I can charge my mobile. Luckily, I brought my charger and flashed my not-so-killer smile and fluttery eyelashes at the guards who took me to the warehouse entrance behind the hall and allowed me to plug my charger there while telling me how responsible I am for being a student-volunteer in this event. "This experience will help you a lot in your resume" said the guard.<br /><br />Back to the main hall, I went inside the comfort room to find 2 pretty girls in Aerith and Tifa get-ups. I commented on the heat and her lack of make-up since I noticed the stage was so wide and the lights would over-expose their skin tone and they need more eyeliner. later on we became friends and I helped Maddie (Aerith cosplayer) braid her wig and applied eyeliner to Maan (Tifa).<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/3/photos/101/500x500/42/DSC-3010.jpg?et=ANEhz71nt3nURhXhnCThow&nmid=216690765"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 234px; height: 351px;" src="http://images.aicirtapsy.multiply.com/image/3/photos/101/500x500/42/DSC-3010.jpg?et=ANEhz71nt3nURhXhnCThow&nmid=216690765" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">^ L-R: Maan (Tifa cosplay) & Maddie (Aerith cosplay)</span><br /><br /></div>Outside, I saw familiar cosplayers.

A little while later, we offered water and pain reliever to Guy Singson who was experiencing some kind of piercing headache.

It's supposed to be a rest day for me. I have no classes on Wednesdays and Saturdays according to my lovely schedule. Unfortunately, our good professor had to be absent for 2 weeks to attend a scholar's convocation something at Hawaii and Nevada. So we had to have a make-up class. The usual 1hour and 30 minute class became a 3 hour class which started 1pm and ended 4pm that day.<br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />I was late for the photoshoot with <a href="http://tur0n.multiply.com/">Kuya Ron</a> and <a href="http://jethroibarrola.multiply.com/">Kuya Jethro</a>. We had a new model today - err, its the first time I met her - Susan. Our make up artist for this shoot was Stephanie 'Sumi' Go. I was asked to bring a black gown since I mentioned the night before that I have one. I didn't expect that I'd be the one wearing it.<br /><br />So I brought my Potassium (my camera) with me, the lens was borrowed by Ron the day before and I wasn't able to be a photographer that day. I became instant model.

Later that night, I found out who it was from. And I won't say it here. I'm glad for the flowers. But I'm freaked out. I'm not the kind of person who usually receives flowers or gifts from someone.<br /><br />P.S.

I went to 2 branches of LBC with my friends (Erose and Marie) to claim my package. But it wasn't here yet. I sent an SMS to my mom asking for the tracking number and she ordered me to call her via landline. So we all headed to my house. Inside the elevator, I was depressed because it was already 3pm and we haven't taken our lunches yet (we were at the library the entire morning till 2pm to do my OC107 thesis proposal and our group management paper for OC140). When I opened the door to my house, my mom's inside! Apparently, instead of a package, she came to see me personally for my 18th birthday - travelling more than 700 kilometers to see me. *love*</div>We had sea shells for our lunch and Erose and Marie loved eating the pastilles and mango. Yum!<br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"><br />February 26 Thursday</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Its my 18th birthday. I woke up late. Waited long at ALVA to have the unreasonably expensive acetate for my OC107 thesis proposal. So I arrived at school late. By 10am, the class was over and we headed to my house to do the OC140 management paper. Due to the time constraint and lack of manpower, Erose, Marie and I had to skip the 1pm OC104 class to finish doing the Framework and Methodology of our group study. I arrived late for my supposed-to-be-2:30pm NatSci5 class because I forgot my waiver at home. In class, I just talked to my seatmates, replied to tens of SMS and responded to e-mails on my laptop. Yes, there is WIFI in school, albeit, a weak one. But its enough.<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">After class, I saw Marie and Erose outside the door. Marie's class follows mine and she has a quiz to take; Erose's presence was questionable because she said earlier that she's heading home. Unexpectedly, they presented me a super big birthday card for someone named PACHICHARON with messages from my closests college friends (I didn't see Preky's note. BOO). Another thing, I was given the Code Geass Lelouch Lamperouge figure which I usually ogle at Toys R Us. OMG! I love it.<br /><br />I went to the post office, my aunt from Ireland sent me a small parcel with a Guinness tank top and a big birthday card with her greetings and Lauri's greetings. Then I proceeded to the Japanese Garden at Lunet Park to return the lens to Ronald Ramos, only to find out that they moved to Chinese Garden, still at Luneta Park, but a long walk in between. We shared small talk and I quickly went home to my mom who's waiting at home.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/Saa0iFcxIXI/AAAAAAAAANI/B8mXafXisd8/s1600-h/20090226-DSC_2091.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aMr-D_Kaa9k/Saa0iFcxIXI/AAAAAAAAANI/B8mXafXisd8/s320/20090226-DSC_2091.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307127708574097778" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >^ L-R: Bday card from aunt, pink one from Tish Girls also the Geass figure.</span><br /></div><br />I carried electronic stuff for my mom to the nearby mall and after a while, we went to eat at Secret Recipe. We had Vietnamese Beef Noodles, Marble Cheesecake, Strawberry Milkshake, and Kiddie Burger Platter. Too bad I wasn't able to bring my camera. I didn't have my bag with me - just my mobile phone. We ate quickly and caught a movie: Confessions of a Shopaholic.<br /><br />Nice movie. The actors and actresses were not all that gorgeous as those in The Devil Wears Prada, but its a good fashion movie. Anyhoo, I had fun. In the end, I was brought down by a bad flu by nighttime.

We are using social marketing and creative arts to recruit advocates, and build an ecosystem for transformation. We use art (and enjoy using it) as vehicle, and we use culture as an 'economic engine' to spur livelihood among people, to make programs sustainable in all areas visited. We combined cultural and social entrepreneurship.
