Because I want to brag a lot...

I'm seriously supposed to WORK ON MY PAPER. But one of my blog idols (yes, he's one of 'em cool people--->Dominique) tagged me, I'm doing it. I'm a cool people sucker that way. Woot. Oh yeah. Since I don't know that many bloggers I'm tagging multiply people. So... here goes..

RULES:
1. Link to the person who tagged you.
2. Mention the rules.
3. Tell six unspectacular quirks of yours.
4. Tag six bloggers by linking.
5. Leave a comment for each blogger.

Step 3:

• I cringe when I see happy couples in luuuurve. (Do i have a sign on my forehead that says "PLEASE, hold hands in front of me and hug each other"????!!!?Damnit. Sorry.)

• I recently got into the habit of drowning my neck in moisturizer. (I'm dead scared of wrinkles and the neck's the first part of your body that shows aging.) Yeah. I KNOW.

• I clean the cubicle before I use it.

• You put me in a bookstore and I can stay there FOREVER. Ask anybody.

• I smile when I look at my reflection. I look fugly when I'm not smiling. I hate looking at myself all fugly.

• I seriously, firmly believe I'll die a young,dramatic death. I have death wishes in mind. One of them includes Howie Severino doing a documentary on me. (He will only show smiling pictures of me, of course.)

Step 4:

I don't know a lot of blogging people so I'm tagging mostly multiply people.. kay? :p

My BIG six:

So much to do. So much to say. More next time.

Hello world

Thanks to my Style.com newsletter, I got a glimpse or two of what's up for Spring 2009. Browsing through, look what i found!

Joanne Cordero Reyes

Filipino designer to watch out for! Whooot! (Move over Monique?)

Vicente Villarin Is the New Girl in Town

Don't be surprised when a raven-haired woman takes a bow at the close of the Vicente Villarin show on September 5. New York fashion week newcomer Joanne Cordero Reyes (no relation to Brian or José Ramón) named her business after her grandfather, a classical composer.

-Style.com

Don’t be fooled by the name Vicente Villarin. These feminine designs are actually the creation of female Filipino designer Joanne Reyes. Named after her grandfather, the Vicent Villarin brand represents Sophistication, Confidence, Elegance, Individuality and Modernity; women that want to feel pretty and elegant yet modern and sexy.

This may be Joanne Cordero's first time at Fashion Week under her own label, Vicente Villarin, but the designer is no novice. She cut her teeth at Reem Acra and J. Mendel, making eveningwear for celebs. And this season she's showing at Bumble and bumble, home of the next big thing (Alexander Wang, Sari Gueron, and Bruce all showed there a year ago). Reyes's training with red-carpet designers is readily apparent in the clean, long lines of her gowns. But Reyes adds her own edge to the usual feminine piece. Her pencil skirt is done up in faux-alligator for a tougher, sexier look. Her take on the little white dress involves tulle and a shorter-than-short hemline. And her outerwear borders on architectural, rivaling Jil Sander. She may have learned to dress celebs, but only the truly style savvy (read: not governed by a stylist) will slip into these clothes.

Don't you just love it when a Filipino puts us on the map?

we sleep together.

the one moment where everything felt right. even though they weren't.

Sweethearts

To whom it may concern:

No matter what I put up in my multiply, you know it's always going to be you.
I still sleep holding to your shirt.
Not a day goes by that I don't tell somebody about your funny antics.
I was looking at some pictures today. I found one of us. Can't help but smile.
You make me smile everyday.
I miss you.
That's all you really need to know.
You already know the rest.

Shizznit

My quest for "cool people", i realized, was ahbsolutely pointless. Thanks to serendipity, my very much hung-over self ran into what i thought was one yesterday. I was giddy. for a while. Then just now I realized that "cool people" are people too. They have lives. It's annoying. In the movies dorks don't get girlfriends. (Well, Paddy's an exception.. :P) In real life they do. And let me tell you, it's not gonna be pretty (I mean the situation, not the girls. The girlfriends aren't bad.) Nerds should stay single and worry about what the rest of the world is too busy with their significant others to think about. Really.. They're not cool people anymore. They're normal. I hate it.

Darnit.

WHY I'M IN TROUBLE:

• I was supposed to pass my new and improved interview plan today but I realized it would be far easier to do it tonight instead and submit it tomorrow morning since I left my roommate's USB at the dorm.

• I have midterms on Saturday. I have this HUGE feeling I'm going to fail anyways. So I'm planning on going out afterwards. I'm going to that JMA party everyone is selling me tickets to. This will be fun. Free-flowing drinks all night long. Just the right stuff to help me crash and burn after that helluva test.

• Howie Severino hasn't replied to my last e-mail about the final date of the interview yet so I might get screwed up for this.

• My paper is NOWHERE near done.

• I NEED to go to Intramuros ASAP. I have a paper due for that one.
  

• I have a NatSci exam next Wednesday and I haven't studied yet. I have nothing to study though. No notes. Because I don't listen. Fudge.

• My folio has nothing in it yet. I need sketches. Now.

• My deconstructed blouse needs to be constructed.

So yeah. I guess that pretty much sums it up nicely. What am I doing blogging when I should be working, you ask? The same reason why I'm going to grab pistaschio ice cream instead of brushing up on rational exponents. Which is... Uhm.. I don't know either. Maybe I'm just lazy. Whatever. This is university life. God bless us all.
