project 365: july

Tada! Here's my photo compilation for July. I tried my best to take a variety of photos and not only food, but since the highlight of most of my days were during meals (hehe), this is how it turned out.

I'm currently working on my August one and I'm happy to say that I haven't missed a day yet. I've been cheating my way through though, taking photos of my everyday breakfast just so that I don't miss a day. Haha! But I try my best not to use those since they get boring (e.g. July 29 and 31). 

To more photos this August!

Check out Fellow's new cover photo. I thought it was time to change it because Fellow's fourth collection is finally out. Just in case you haven't already seen it, you may check it out HERE.

Just a random note: I'm pretty happy with my Fellow customers. Some of them are so sweet and encouraging, they make me want to work harder to provide them with more accessories. Some of them are also so loyal that I want to shower them with free bracelets. Really. One of the best things that's happened from starting this is being able to make friends with the people that buy. Others just choose to buy and be done with the transaction (which is totally fine and easy), but some customers are extra friendly and put an effort in building a relationship with the Fellow, which I really, really appreciate. So if you happen to be one of the extra friendly customers, thank you! Your kind words and enthusiasm go a long, long way. I hope to be able to do the same for you through my accessories.

fellow's 4th collection teaser

Fellow's got a FOURTH collection coming up soon! Here's a photo of one of Fellow's designs to look forward to. 

Classy, but with a twist! 

Check out the fourth collection teaser HERE.

the prize

In case you were wondering, I did end up getting my free Dynamite roll and Miso soup from Omakase! Happy happy camper.

ps. If you decide to join the contest (and win), and would like to avail of your prize, they require a print out of the coupon, not just a photo on your phone. It's something they failed to inform me in the email, but it's a good thing I decided to print it anyway.

lost at sea

After a late night for Anton's birthday celebration, we got up early for a day trip to Subic. A 3-4 hour drive to a destination is not the best for day trips. You practically waste 6-8 hours of the day on the road. But since we were up so late, we actually needed the long ride to regain our energy. And it helped! We got to Subic at about 1pm and spent the rest of the afternoon on a friend's yacht.  

Really loving the colors of this shot.

 It was an afternoon/night of great company, food and drinks. What made it extra awesome was the fact that we were anchored in the middle of the ocean where we took a lot of photos, jumped off the boat, swam, and drank.. a lot. We were only able to spend about 5 hours out at sea, and of course it was a lot of fun and ultimately bitin, but I'm glad I'm able to have enjoyable moments like these. Even just for a while. So short, but sweet!

I'm so happy that Taylor Swift's song 22 became a hit the year that my friends and I turn 22. No matter how annoying it is to some people and how it's so nakaka-LSS, it's still such a fun song to sing and dance to, especially because it's exactly where we're at!

Last Friday was Anton's 22nd birthday and for the first time, he decided to throw something for his friends. Anton's parties before were usually surprises from me or his family, but this time he decided to throw and pay for the get-together himself. Very last minute planning, but I'm so glad that a lot made it still. And in theme!

For his party, everyone had to come in matching outfits with someone else. It was a pair party!
This is what Anton and I wore:

         

Initially we had no plans of buying the same lobster shirt. But we were in Town just a few hours before and saw that Folded and Hung had a "buy two, get 40% off" sale, so we decided to go for it. 

And that is all! I'm actually sad that Anton's birthday weekend is over. I love it when it's his birthday (sometimes even more than when it's mine, haha). Looking forward to more years with this guy!
