This outfit doesn’t particularly stand out but the colors are cool enough to grab enough attention and keep me the least bit stylish when I feel like having a “day off” from all the dressing up.

I’ve been a very lazy person lately- especially around the time before my birthday and so dressing up was particularly hard to do. To combat the laziness, I tried incorporating brighter colors and keeping it laid back with a neutral colored cardigan.

I’m not sure if it’s still ok to wear white denim skirts nowadays but I got it as a gift so I figured I’d use it anyways. It was perfect for creating a girly, sophisticated look and my Sanuk sneakers really brought my whole look together and made me feel like I was ready for a date at the park. (date jud! oha!)

To date, this has been the most comfortable outfit I’ve ever put together.

What’s yours?

Weddings Make Me Sad

Tonight I realized that there might be something very wrong with me.

I don’t have a “dream” wedding.

No dream ring, no dream color scheme, flower arrangement. Just a dream dress and a dream thank you speech but that’s just it.

I have no standards in life and this makes me feel less like a woman.

I’ve honestly dreamed of my dream life and career than I have of a wedding.

Oh God, I’m going to die alone… Dammit.

Oh, But You Learn

You can’t always have everything in life.

You can’t expect everyone, including the ones you love the most, to be there for you at your every beck and call.

Sometimes, people have to do things on their own even if it disappoints you.

There can never be happiness without sorrow, you just need to pick which side you want to stay on.

The things you want change.

Sometimes the things you thought would hurt you the most are the things that bring out the most joy.

Times heals all wounds.

Forgiving someone is hard but when it comes, it can be the most liberating of things.

It’s ok to cry, especially if they are 2 decades worth of tears.

Life changes you.

I should invest more on my tan.

Grabeh Lingaw kaayo ko sa cigeg paminaw ug mga lalis na way kapuslanon.

Lingaw sad kaayo ko ug cigeg tago2 sa akong cigarilyo ug nganu hilabtanun kaayo mo ug mabutanon.

Leche ning kinabuhia. I’m awt.
