PHOTO MEMORIES 2013

 Photographs sometimes make it hard to savor a moment when it's happening.  In the future, having pictures will help you recall a happy time.- Gretchen Rubin

A COUPLE OF PHOTO POSE IDEAS

It’s the day after New Year and the city seemed to be sleeping.  Oh it is!  It’s 3 am in the morning.  I just woke up and took a lukewarm bath.  My first ever bath for the year 2014.  Never mind what I did yesterday.  As far as I can remember, I was on bed the whole day. 

I still can’t get over with the year 2013.  It’s just like yesterday I was with friends roaming around the city or spent the weekend out of town.  It’s just like yesterday I was working the whole day.  Oh later, I’ll be back to usual work routine again.  It’s just like I did not spend the holiday vacation.  Time really flies so fast!  I really need to make use of the time.  Make it valuable and productive just what I am doing now.  I don’t want that this idea runs out of my mind when I go back to sleep.    I had enough sleep naman.

My excitement is back for the year 2014.  What will be the trends this year?  Last year, the pose trends are selfie and look up pose.  I like to surf the internet from time to time to keep me updated on the latest trends.  I love checking the Instagram accounts of celebrities.  And aside from my blog, I visit other blogs and websites.  One of the websites I am following is the NOODLEHEAD's blog .  It reflects my passion and interest for arts and crafts.  Not only that, it gives me some picture pose ideas.

Isn't it amazing?

Isn't it surprising?

Isn't it?

MY TOP PRIORITIES FOR 2014

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014!

I was excited the last days of December 2013.  However, there was an unexpected event that ruined my days. And my excitement for 2014 turned into anger.  I know it happened for a good reason.  Indeed, there are far better things ahead than someone/something I left behind.  I walked away from anyone who took away my joy.  Life is too short to put up with fools.   

Last year, my goal was to share my good experiences and my blessings to others.  Yes, I did it so far and I received appreciation and kindness in return.  I focused to the subject that I forgot to give back something to my mentors.  I realized I have to focus not only to the receiver but to the giver.  I am so grateful pa din because my real friends are still with me... to support me.  So this year, my goal is to give back.  

1. I can't leave blogging.  I still love it.  And I try my best to update this blog not so often but maybe I can post once a week or trice a month.  I have a journal to jot down things everyday.  And Heart who is the model of Tanduay 2014?  No, I mean Heart, that dog in the background.  I still love drinking Milo in the morning and coffee in the evening at Ariel's tambayan.

2. I missed to travel with Ng Baby and April, her daughter, plus Micai.  Last year 2013, we were not able to travel as often as we can.  But we did watch movie sometimes.  I love to travel with them again this year.

3. John or Iloy as I call him, is one of the thoughtful and caring people in my life.  We've been close since my first year in the company.  Another one among the kind and soft-spoken people is Ng Nor, as I call her Amay.  I hope to bond with both of them one of these days again.

4.  Despite being busy as a hands-on mom, my BFF, Marigold never forget to contact me even I can't correspond to her regularly since I am busy studying notes and practicing dance move as a career move.  Ha-ha.  Her beauty never fades too!

5.  I love hanging out with both of them.  I am just on the other side of the corner listening and taking photos of them while they are talking about beauty ideas.  They are both beauty queens now!

6. To be in or part of the AVATAR PROD PH is really fantastic!  I enjoy to go with them during out of town vacations and hanging with them in our tambayan.  We cook and dine @ the tambayan once a week.  Everyone has a rule.

7. I missed playing with my nieces and nephews plus my apos.  Ha-ha.  That's one of the goals I wanna achieve this year.

8. And one of the best things to do this year is to attend mass regularly.  I don't need to say more.

9. Travel and take photos.  I am not getting younger but older.

10. Read some books too.

11. Do arts and crafts projects again.

12. I will send emails, letters and text messages.  Just simple things to do but I know how it means to the receiver based on my own self.

13. Buying and giving gifts.  I was not able to achieve this last year.  I start buying gifts now.

14. And the last is to be organized @ home and  @ the office.
