Another month of creativity begins as #CLOYTOBER had its second run hosted by @cloysauce. It’s a BinJin fan event in which the fandom showcases CLOY-inspired content based on a day-to-day prompt. There's a twist this time in which the prompts were abstract words compared from the previous year. Despite the challenge, a lot of fans on Twitter still managed to join and I really enjoyed seeing everyone’s entries! It mostly took me back down memory lane about BinJin’s loveable moments in CLOY as such an event fills in the content drought. I loved how every fan had their own unique ways to execute the prompts through either arts or literary works. 🖤
While for me, I offered my usual serves of random chibi arts. Honestly, I was silently ranting the first time I saw the prompts because the words were too broad; To my mind, I was like, how do you make an art out of ‘green’? ’letter’? ’remedy’? then associate it with CLOY? wtf?! Just kidding. Never had I really expect that I miraculously created something out of it and the mere fact that all of my entries were chibis since I’m no fic writer, poet, musician, etc. lol. So let me share how I arrived with such ideas per entry. But wait---why and how did I start with chibi arts?!

(More) BinJin Musings

I’m back in the blogging zone. Definitely, long time no update though I’m often active to my socmed accounts for my chibiarts and #OOTD’s ;D But finally, this most overdued entry is up!
Let me recap the swarm of BinJin contents with my own two cents as the fandom suddenly experienced drought season (again)---WELL, NOT UNTIL their dog, "kitty" had made its debut in the public eye. Haha! She is one, cute lucky maltese 🖤  Talking back about the drought, I believe this is more tolerable than before since at least now there are no second guesses about their status and surely, they will bounce back together, right? And if they do, will we even be ready? ;)

#SuitFitCupid x #CLOYCYCLE Recap

This girl has been so pre-occupied with her chibiarts that she forgot about her blog. Lol, my apologies! 🙈 My blogdrafts have been on queue since I finished my previous entry but apparently, I was really busy with work as usual; Oftentimes, I take my artworks as a form of ARTherapy during my days off. There were a lot of BinJin inspos from their new contents so my urge to draw out of my random box went endless 😝
So in the meantime, here's a filler blog entry about the past 2 events from the fandom's twitter hub. February's #SuitFitCupid was about creating CLOY/BinJin contents from song lyrics/movie prompts suggested by fellow fans while March' #CLOYCYCLE took down memory lane of previous tweets based on the prompts per day. I got to say that the first event was more challenging for depicting artworks from dialogues. Though I'm glad my BinJin chibis were able to pull through some of it! Special thanks again to @cloysauce for always organizing such events. These truly keeps the CLOY/BinJin fandom alive 🖤

A Week of SON YEJIN

This was not supposed to be my first post. This was meant to merge with my BinJin 2 Cents (PART 2) but the draft's quite long already and APAN is coming this week-- I mean, no. Screw that award show for letting us think that BinJin's attending the ceremony. I have ranted enough about it on Twitter so I better not pull it out again here. Anyhow, Yejin's birthday week deserves a full blog entry with all the sudden events that happened last week. 🥰 My Sontokkie (name for SYJ's fans) heart is squealing for joy! From her main birthday to a cupsleeve event, I guess it's a blessing in disguise that I had my vacation extended in this capital of fangirling. ;)

Here's a recap of my #11DaysofYejin as part of Yejin's birthday socmed activities in Twitter and the fan events that followed.
NOTE: The outside events were held with caution as per COVID19 restrictions

SMART x BinJin

Despite reliving old updates, re-watching BinJin projects and having a merchandise spree(which I'll be posting soon!), BinJin nation has been experiencing drought for the past few weeks. Yet recently, almost the entire world got whipped as SMART telecom dropped the bomb of having Son Yejin as its newest endorser 🖤 Well, I know it's just a commercial film (CF) but the mere fact that she and Hyun Bin are on the same page once more is definitely brewing something!

This is my appreciation post to SMART for choosing BinJin as their product models that somehow became a bridge to make them work together for another time.🥰 And of course, this entry will include a continuation of my own BinJin speculations from ze previous post (by demand!Many thanks again to everyone who have read it 🖤). So, are we getting close to hear the real deal? ;)

#2019Recap

Another year has passed and it turned out to be an emotional trainwreck despite my travelventures. From the loss of a family member to bidding farewells to loved ones, it’s been heavy yet I happily survived. ;”) Everything seemed like blessings in disguise with these whir of events.Hence, lets cheers to the ones that I got!

Crazy, Rich, Singapore

Here's my last Asian stop to revisit and it's great to be back after 5 long years!! Singapore has been one of my favorite places mainly because of its mixed race atmosphere.Moreover, it is so safe with the many laws that they implement (i.e no chewing gum,no food & drinks inside a PUV and the newest thing I've seen,no durian in selected areas!haha).

you may want to check out my previous posts about this country ;) I'd loved to visit some of them again but with such a short stay, I wasn't able to do it already. Nevertheless, me and my family watched the Grand Prix, strolled inside Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay.

#WhenInTHAI (part 1)

I'm back,Suvarnabhumi Airport! I arrived in the afternoon and it was HOT---hotter than in Manila.

It was quite unexpected that I have planned to go back in Thailand after 10 years

. Yes, I have been there in 2008 and honestly me and my family did not enjoy for the reason that several mishaps had occurred during our stay (let alone, my mom's wallet got stolen in a 5-star hotel). Eversince then, we all have a mindset of not going back there until suddenly,a couple of things made me change my view about it. Thai culture has become popular nowadays based on travel blogs that I read and most of all, I became a big supporter of their former beauty queen, Maria Poonlertlarp. I have mentioned her in some of my previous posts from this year and by that time,I started to plan of visiting Bangkok again with the hope of meeting her someday. Yet, it was hard persuading my parents to let me travel there until miraculously, they have allowed me to do so. Y'all might wonder how but lets just say that I've chosen this trip over a multi-city tour to somewhere. That could have been my first but since the cost was so extreme (and I believe that I will be settling near there soon), I decided to push through with my Asian travels (and goals!Haha) instead.

And so,touchdown Bangkok for the second time! In this part, I will be talking about my activities apart from the tour that I've joined and how I met Maria P.❤️

#2017Memories

This year has left me with a lot of learnings once again and a question suddenly occurred to me:"Have I become one of the Titas of Manila?" Haha! But one thing's for sure: I've been adulting during ze year and it's never been easy! My priorities are driven for my career yet on the side, I managed to embark on a trip on my own and day-offs spent for family and friends ❤️ Here are my top 5 moments and you may click some picture below to read the full review.

5) 2017 FILMS.
The movies that made me laugh,surprise,"kilig" and...cry.lol I used to not cry in watching but films such as "Beauty and the Beast" and "Coco" had kept me teary-eyed.Though I was touched 'cause it was beautifully produced and yet I have watched these twice in the cinemas! And of course,who would not add Fifty Shades on the list?I can't wait for my fave love story to end next Feb.❤️

4)my newest inspiration.

I've become a huge fan of Maria Poonlertlarp eversince Miss U 2017 began. I find her as the prettiest beauty queen even if she just made it to ze top 5. Majority of her latest updates are in Thai but I really don't care (lol); Some of it have translations which made me like her more and I'm proud to be one of her Asian fans☺️ I hope she gets to tour Asia someday!


3)Nihao HK//Macau!
So this is how my family spent our summer this year: visiting the outskirts of Hong Kong and cruisin through Macau.I certainly enjoyed Macau from its street foods and casino spots even for just a day. While I strongly recommend HK as a go-to place for first time travellers.My 'nihao travel series' might continue next year as I go to Taiwan!



2)Britney Spears' Concert (061517)
Her songs will always be the anthem of a teenager born in the 90's.From the classic "Baby One More Time" to "Oops I Did It Again",I believe everyone could relate to those songs! Likewise, The concert was definitely worth the wait,and worth the expense. 'nuff said!



1)Goin' Solo!
My week-long trip to Osaka has been one of the best experiences I've ever had!❤️Truth be told,many people will always doubt the wonders of solo travel but prove them wrong! My brave soul has taught me to be more independent and even with the slightest mishaps I've had there,I was still able to visit a lot of towns around the Kansai area 😍 Ergo,I promise to come back soon! And this won't also be the last time that I will go on a solo flight. ;)




Lasltly,thank you to all who have been reading my entries! Some of my old entries are underconstruction so please bear with me.I'm finding time to retrieve my other photos and likewise, I assure y'all that I'll make more updates soon!

It's BRITNEY,b*tch! (061517)

This was posted on my IG story yesterday afternoon :)

The long wait is over as the pop princess hits the stage at SM Mall of Asia Arena!Well,who wouldn't resist going to a (could be) once in a lifetime show?'Cause this artist has been my childhood favorite before the dawn of my current idols ;) So I didn't mind spending a lot for a lowerbox seat---and of course,it was all worth it! a 9/10 rating for me ❤️

#2016Memories

2016 has definitely been a year for CHANGE .I've gone through periods of adjustment to survive the year.I couldn't say that it was one of the best but it was fun and thrilling.Although this time,I only have 5 top mems because of such shortcomings ;( Inspite of the drama, I guess it's a disguise that my dream to explore the world came true this year ;) So here goes my top 5 mementos.

#2015 Memories

Basically,2015 has been a lot of ups and downs for me.It was full of trial-and-error periods that at the end,all those hardships were worth achieving.Let it be the events I've attended,the things I started to like and the people who became so important to me.So here goes my traditional rundown of the year ;)

Just when the '-BER' months began...

I'm back.
I wasn't able to write a lot because I have been very very verryyy BUSY. It's been a total whirlwind eversince I started work. This is real nurse sh*t already. The frustrating change of scheds,endless overtimes and restless days---I've been embracing it for the past 8 months.Yet it taught me more to be patient,especially in a cruel job world.Never lose your optimism.
Anyway, lets not go further with my job on this post.

Prismatic World Tour Manila!!

ahh yesss!touchdown Philippine Arena! And it was just a 45-minute shuttle ride from Trinoma.The area was certainly huge as it was filled with several booths of Katy Perry merchandise (which I will discuss later) and food stalls.

Greysessed duties for "Fifty Shades of Grey"

Yesss after 3 years of waiting,one of my fav novels made it to the big screen!! Well I got to admit that I had a break from being Greysessed for years since I got hooked on the Crossfire series; But I still have a big big heart for my dear Christian Grey.❤️ Going back to last year when the trailer came out,I was so excited that I cannot contain my feels anymore---like I needed an emergency flight to America if this won't be shown in the Philippines (yet thankfully,it did). So yeah, I watched it twice because I couldn't wait any longer for the blockscreening last Feb.15.Hahaha! That's why I first watched it on the second day of premiere last Feb. 12.I watched it with my mom who wasn't really aware of the erotic story and I can't believe she liked it at the end!In fact she's more obsessed than I am now as she watched it thrice and reads the books.See how Christian Grey's impact goes for the women...sigh ❤️

(#3) The Petite Trends: During the Holidays..

Finally,a first entry for the year!Sorry it took long, my pc got malfunctioned last time so I wasn't able to blog then.But I'll make it up for this!I've been to a lot during the holiday season and these past few days of January.I spent the Christmas day in a private resort at Laguna while on New year's day,we went ramenized on Ramen Nagi at SM Aura Premier. I really like that ramen place so much; I customize my butao king with a spicy grade of 1. You guys should try it! It's perfect for the cold weather lately :)

Here was the outfit that I wore during the festive season.Paring a blazer with shorts has become a casual trend--like yes,it isn't just for a corporate outfit anymore!Some people also wear it during club parties already. But of course you need to choose the style that doesn't look very business-like if you're gonna use it in a club. I bought mine at Forever21 and indeed, they have several designs of blazers there. I'll post another style of it on instagram :D

Here's another occasion that I wore it which was during my friend's party.

#2014 Memories

Words can't explain how much this year has been well-achieved and a success. It has been a year of teary-eyed moments,goals achieved and of course,"I never thought of..." events ;") So here it goes!

The things that I've looked forward to.

My apologies for taking too long to post another entry this month. Like I said last time, I became busy with my training to the hospital that I applied to. I had my first 2 days of duty last Mon-Tues and it was good :) I was assigned in an Onco-Surgical ward. It was my first time to handle cancer patients as well---and a first time to handle foreign patients! But as a trainee and a first timer, all I did during the shift were clerk work.Though sometimes I get to assist my mentor staff with the procedures. So there goes my #dutyduties experience for now. My next training will be around next month so currently, I'm on a break ;D

Anyhow,I was still able to witness the things that I've been looking forward to inspite of the busyness in training.

Parties with my 2 favorites

I've been attending events for the past 2 weeks and I'm so overwhelmed that each of it was with my favorites ❤️ My whole month of August has become so much fun and fearless at the same time! Fearless as I took my IV Therapy training at Capitol Medical Center and it went well. I hated IV injections and I was even so scared to be pricked by it.Yet I suddenly overcome my fears at it as my partner on the training pricked me twice! Hahaha :)) My veins on my hands were quite hard to detect that's why the nurse supervisor suggested to prick me on both hands. I did not mind about it,though. I took it as an experience and went fine. Nonetheless, I look forward to more of my RN trainings soon! :D "let the right job arrive to you on the right moment. #notetoself"

(072614) Vios Cup Race 2!

Me and my family spent the weekend at Clark, Pampanga where we watched the Vios Cup Race 2 at Clark Speedway. It was my first time to watch a race car competition and I never thought this would be fun! Although what makes it more fun was that my favorite is part of the race!Haha :) But I really do enjoyed the event even if I'm not a fan of cars.Yet I'm quite familiar with the Vios as I've been attending several Toyota events since last year.
