Everyday is "ME" day

Hey,

Did you know that “Lazy” has a new name? – It starts with “M” and ends with “E”. Well, actually, that’s not really something new.

With some recent disappointments, I can actually say that I've come to a standstill. How did I know that? A few days ago I told my boyfriend that "I think I would like to be a full-time house wife". Those words that I did not dare pertain to me, ever, gushed out of my mouth like a geyser, and It even caught Paul off-guard. Maybe a year ago the thought would totally give me the creeps and would push me to be productive, but ever since I've been an active member of the Church of God I now have a new way of looking at things or sort of like a change of perspective in a less irritable way.

After all, just because the word “house” is literally next to the word “wife” doesn't mean that I have to take it in physical-literal form. House is a “noun” and not “ verb” so I’ll take that as a reassurance that I don’t have to be inside the house all the time talking to trinkets (which I don’t seem to mind at all).

Anyway, I’m like this now because my sewing machine is being a b*tch and kept snapping her needle thread at me so it’s affecting my behavior. Toodles for now.

Love,
“ME”

P.S: I'm totally bothered by my wrinkled cover-up just now.Oh, this is heart wrenching -_-

Hot & Cold

Hey,

First, let me just say, that the title is totally irrelevant to this outfit post. This is the result of the internet connection going AWOL on you (Gateway Timeout Error 504) and you're left with only 10 seconds to think of a lookbook title. I saw Red; I saw Blue, so why not Hot and Cold, as in Fire and Water. Even Herman Melville had a hard time thinking of titles - Moby Dick wasn't very original either.

On to the main part: Denim and Red. I have never noticed it before, but they really do match well. Here in the Philippines we have this "nakakputi" moment (Filipinos, even if we deny it, it's obvious we have a "Mestiza fetish"). It occurs when you're in a moment where your skin glows more than usual or it seems you've become one shade lighter. An example is when you just dyed your hair a color that complements your skin or most of the time when you've tried on a new pair of shoes, preferably in PINK. You can't experience it all the time (unless, with the help of photoshop), that's why I call it a "moment."

Anyhow, Denim together with Red radiated a nakakputi moment for me. I do have a few denims in my wardrobe so I might wear something like this again in the future. Or better yet, I'll make sure to have a Denim and Red ensemble ready for the lazy-but-must-still-look-quirky-days.

Love,

Cham

P.S: If I have the chance to think of a relevant title for this one, then I'll dub thee "Nakakaputi moment". No? I'll try better next time (I'm not promising anything though)
