day {1}


HAPPY NEW YEAR. !

WELCOME 2014 !









day {2}


My cousins, and their friends and my family, were assigned to perform a dance number for my cousin. Ate(sister) Penny's wedding. A total of 5 pairs dancing Cha-Cha and a little Swing to
Tiffany Alvord's cover of  ' Happy Together ' . It took some time to practice the dance moves, and that's what we've been doing lately.
Not to mention , we had a band too!
The SMS band which stands for (Santiago, Mamaril , San Diego)
It consists of :




Stefen - Guitarist
James - Drummer
Stephie - Pianist
Jazi - Bassist
Stephanie - Vocals


but that's when we decided to mix it up a little!


Stefen - Drummer
James - Guitarist
Stephie - Bassist
Jazi - Pianist
Stephanie & Ramon - Vocals.


at first I had a hard time playing the bass, with my oh so fragile fingers, but after a few practice, I got the hang of it and started to develop an interest in playing the bass :)




day {3-4}
Stefen , Scottlee , Stephanie and I were invited to attend a 2 days 1 night Youth Camp with the Meycauayan Ward, Bulacan. We were accompanied with our cousin Jazi :)
It was a such an enjoyment and major laugh trip! Got to reunite with the Young women and had tons of fun. cheering , doing water activities , etc etc. A weekend I can never forget! GO TEDDY BOAR !
#TeddyBoar













day {5}


Our church timing changed to the afternoon session (1pm to 4 pm). More time to sleep in! Hahaha
After church we had our dress rehearsals for the dance performance!




day {6}


Went shopping in St. Francis and Megamall for our outfits, for the wedding. Color theme : Royal Blue and Gold. Didn't get to see Nichkhun at the huge monitor outside the bench/ store :( so sad.




day {7}


OUR OFFICIAL LAST DAY OF DANCE REHEARSALS AND BAND PRACTICE! Yikes! You could definitely feel the pressure building in us! *Phew* but we made it through the day without any bruises or injuries and finally got the choreography finalized , but the band was kinda lacking alittle bit on the beat :/ .
After all the practices, we got a treat to the salon to get our nails done, and I have to admit, it was my first time getting my nails done in a salon and I didn't know the difference from a Manicure and a Pedicure, hahahaha. Even my little sister knew it !


day {8}


Ate Penny and Kuya Joel's wedding has commenced.
The bride wore a modern Greek styled gown with a hint of gold ! I actually kinda , well, just a little bit , teared up :')
After the vows were said , and pictures were taken , we all immediately made our way to the reception area. The most anticipated part of the reception was the performance. Hahahah
My Tito (uncle) managed to snap a video of both our dance and band performance!
ENJOY!

Florals and Cardigan

Friday, 12th April 2013


The title speaks for itself!
Today I decided to go all teacher/librarian-ish cliche outfit. But after all numerous clothing changes, I ended up with this as a result! Put my H&M halter top floral dress to good use, paired it up with a thrifted GAP oversized cardigan (Yup, its twice my size) and tied the whole thing up with my Claire's woven belt.
And guess what? Had another coincidental fashion clash with Daryl .
Her outfit : Pale pink Cardigan . Water-Color florals dress . White Belt.
I'm going to miss her. *Cue cheesy cliche comment on farewells*

The Hair Chop

Last night,  I decided to chop off my wavy black hair locks and
 replace it with a shoulder length-apple cut style.
It definitely contributes to the weather because it's getting really really hot with a frequent visit of gust and strong winds.
Anyways, loving the new look.

                                                                  BEFORE :


AFTER :
When I arrived home, my siblings were waiting to see how my new hairstyle was
and they immediately pointed out that I look like 
Selena Gomez?




Thinking of getting a pixie cut the next time I visit the salon. Maybe with Orange dye ?  Hahaha

Frankfurt, Germany


It's throwback Monday today. I was on my way home from school and then Germany came into my mind. T'was reminiscing on the 3-days trip to Frankfurt, and it just brought back so many memories. I miss the cold breeze and jaw dropping temperature of 1 degrees that I've never experienced before! , the quaint and peaceful atmosphere of the Frankfurt neighborhood we would roam around during break time, The cold store tucked in the corner of the streets; the salesman was pretty okay with having foreign youngsters at his store at 10 p.m.  Then there was Heidelberg! Such a breathtaking place. It consisted of quiet segmented roads hosting shops that sold mouth watering delicacies, which sleeps in old rustic Victorian styled homes.
Didn't managed to walk the whole area or across the bridge to the mountains which has houses built on top.


Nevertheless, before we made our journey to Frankfurt, Germany , our parents decided to do the ultimate shopping spree since it's winter there and not knowing the atmosphere there, it was better to be prepared! 
We retreated to H&M to help us with it and got good buys as well ! 
Bought my chiffon skirt which I've used here and here , Cream Sweater used here , Marching boots used here  and here and a floral halter top dress . AND a bonus Claire's Purple Lace 'in-out' Knee Length Boots used here 

In all . 16 - 18 February 2012 were one of the days I'd remember deeply and wish to re-visit again! 




 Apparently I set the date/time of my camera incorrectly!
Still had my fringe back then! 


 The thing I really miss most in Germany would be the trees! Hey, if you've spent 4 years in Bahrain.. you'd start missing the lushes landscapes of mother nature! So here's a big shoutout to you guys!



Credits to my sister who took this picture. Reminded me of nostalgia. The trees just screamed Harry Potter to me for no reason. Love that fresh breeze in the morning when we strolled this area.



Heidelberg, Frankfurt. 





I've got a hard drive filled with pictures of Germany but this will pretty much sum up what Heidelberg looks like

And lastly my two fellow travelers!






        

       Auf Wiedersehen ! 

And another big shout out to my viewers, readers, bloggers and followers in Germany! 
Thank you very much. I hope I'm able to depict a portion of Frankfurt well! 
Can't wait to visit again.
