Where the Wild Things Are

Had a year-ender party/dinner/game night with my closest blog friends 2 days before welcoming 2013. We wanted to celebrate the great year we all had and the epicness that is 2012 by having a simple get together at Sarah's house. I realized that we now hang out more outside events. Always fun, always a riot. Here are photos! 

The gang assembled in Greenhills, had a quick merienda, visited Basic House, then had a camwhoring sesh at this nice corner near Krispy Kreme. Perfect for outfit shots! After numerous text messages from Sarah and Niche, we decided to report for tambay duty na...

Tracy is scared of dogs! She even made a shield out of throw pillows. Haha. 

While half of the gang unleashed their inner Bobby Flay or Wolfgang Puck, we (namely Ana, Tracy and Aie) just passed time playing with Chewey, dancing and drinking. Hihi. Tamad much.

even Papa D helped by prepping the Dear Darla pizza! While we stared...

..and danced...

...and took photos!

d po ako lasengga promise

And then... DINNER at last!!!

galit galit muna. 

Sarah cooked some wine reduction pasta and Paul cooked egplant parmigniana and roast chicken-- SO GOOD!!! In fairness, I finished everything on my plate!:) Pwede kayo magluto everyday guys? Hehe.

our way of pambawi sa yummy dinner, Ana and I washed the dishes! Sosy Problems style! Hahaha. Parang standup comedy lng.

Monopoly after dinner!

after an hour, we decided to end it nalang..it seems to go on forever!

we then switched to The Beer Game. Wild game! Haha. Si Niche yan nagpu2shup. Required sa nabunot niang card. Hahaha.

We played Killer-Healer as our game finale. I used to play it with my childhood friends and cousins. It's so much fun!!! In summary, depending on the card you picked in secret, there would be a killer, healer, police and civilans in the group. It's the role of the police to catch the killer before he/she kills everyone in the circle (just by winking). Basta yun! Haha. After ilang games ayaw pa paawat!

Happy New Year take 1 (take 2,3,4 also)-- FAIL

Finally! Happy New Year from us!:))

Love you all!:)

Backtrack + Features

Here's another random post from the random me. Lol. I hibernated for a week (or was it just days?) coz of some things. One of which was our apartment clean-up. Another reason is our sudden addiction to board games. Yes. I'm surprisingly beginning to get bored with the internet. I plan to buy as many board games as possible. It's a good way to bond and reconnect with people you love especially in this technology driven time. My cousins and I would just spend hours and hours playing screaming our lungs off sometimes, taunting each other endlessly when we end up paying for fines or other players. 

 Philippine version!

I love this version of Monopoly. Only because we spend time strategizing and arguing who gets to buy EDSA, Ortigas, Recto even Ayala Avenue. It's so fun when you actually know the places you're all paying for, 'coz even after you're done playing you still have that owning feeling with you. One day I even told Mich, "You can skip work, Ayala Avenue is yours remember!" or "I'm so late for a meeting, don't they know I own EDSA?!". Lol. Yep, we've gone Monolopy crazy. Can't wait to buy Visionary or Word Factory--soon!

my apartment in total chaos.

My new food addiction -- Shakey's buffalo wings, fries and calamares. Yum.

I also got busy returning my pull-outs. Just when I've cleared the apartment from borrowed items, I'm starting to accumulate new ones again for another upcoming shoot.  It's another conceptual shoot that will be shot outdoors. I'm still looking for the perfect location. Do you guys know any place that looks vintage, whimsical and with a garden? Help! Here are my inspirations...

Yesterday, I also met up with some blogger friends at Trinoma-- Ana, Ava and Krissy (wish you were there Melai!). After dropping by Trunkshow and a quick shopping at Landmark, we finally watched Narnia. The movie was awesome. 

with Ava, Krissy and cutie Athan!

my tin soldier! i wanated to steal it for my shoot on wed. Lol.

me with Ana and Krissy

And yes Ana, until now I still can't get over the leopard print watch + wallet I saw in Tomato, the red satchel bag at EGG, the tutu dress at The Ramp, the red ballet flats at Shoe Gallery. ARGHHH! Shopping ban sucks. But I did buy some pretty things though. I love you Landmark!

Oh, Trinoma is such a sinful place with all the pretty shops and pretty things! 

I can't wait to go back.

P.S. And lookie!
