#AskMaryAngela: What's your favorite OOTD?

I don’t know why you asked this, anonymous HAHAHA since I think I kinda suck at matching clothes BUT you asked for it so I will give it to you. My attire actually depends on the occasion and location. I’m not a fashion blogger so I don’t know how to answer these kind of questions but here ya go… For my casual attire, my top would either be a t-shirt or a sweatshirt,that goes with shorts. And for my footwear, it’s either flip-flops, rubber shoes or slip-ons. For special occasions, I wear polo shirt that I tucked in with skirts, or pants that are folded, depending on the footwear I’m wearing.  Or I wear jumpers, and skirt/pants(folded depending on the footwear I’m wearing). Or sometimes, dresses. If I feel really girly. Lol HAHAHAHAHA I hope you’re convinced with my answer! Btw, if you have questions like these, you can leave them in my social media accounts or comment down below!!

Hello, High School Life!

As we all know, March is the month of Graduation and Commencement Exercises. Well, yesterday I attended one and reminisced the time I graduated on my sixth grade. The time when I felt a lot of emotions: sadness, anxiety, happiness, excitement , etc. (or what others call “mixed emotions”) Anyway, I will be on my last year on my Junior High School this coming school year, so I think I could share what the incoming freshmen should expect in their High School life and what to prepare for. 1.   Your bag will be lighter. Though you will have more books this time, and thicker books compared to your grade school; well, you will learn to leave the ‘unnecessary’ books a.k.a those books which you don’t have to deal with at home. You can either left it under your chair, on your classroom’s bookshelves, on your locker (or your friend’s locker), or just somewhere over there (well, as long as you know you could still see your book the next day, no matter where you put it, it’s fine...

Understanding Valentines' Day

#MyFlawlessSurprise

Image
I got so shocked when @myflawless (Flawless’ twitter account sent me a direct message saying that I got a #MyFlawlessSurprise from them.  So after three days, I went to the nearest branch of Flawless to my place and received the sweetest surprise ever! February is such a busy and stressful month for me, and before I started it, I relaxed by having my free Classic Facial from Flawless. And also, it’s my first time to attend a promenade so it’s actually a perfect timing to pamper my skin. Again, thank you so much for this sweet and wonderful experience, Flawless! Looking forward to visit again! :)

When I'm no longer #TeamBahay

“Aw I guess I will just see you guys at the next Click Playfest. Maybe it’s not yet my time. Maybe someone deserves those tickets better.” I remember the night when I was tweeting those statements a week before Click Playfest because I did not win the tickets in the raffles that I’ve joined for CPF. So I really felt hopeless and devastated at that time since I   thought   that I will stay as   #TeamBahay . So yeah, the next morning, I felt a lot lazier than ever before. I actually didn’t want to go to school but since I need to study hard so that I could have a great job in the future and have a lot of money and go to a bunch of tours, I decided to just go to school a little late. I decided to check out my Twitter first, though I think it will just hurt because 98% of my mutuals are going to Click Playfest. But still I did, since I’m   manhid na   when it comes to getting heartbroken with not going to tours and concerts. So I opened it and checked my...

#AskMaryAngela: FILTERS

Q:   What app and filter do you use with your Instagram posts? A:   For my Instagram Posts, I use   VSCO Cam .   I don’t have a filter that I consistently use, because I rarely use ready-to-use filters. I would often adjust the brightness, saturation, fade, vignette, sharpness, etc. Not using ready-to-use filters makes your shot more personal because you will be the one to control the amount of brightness, saturation, highlights, etc. Well, that is the actual reason why I have a messy feed. Hehehehe :-----) -- So yeah, I just shared how I apply filters on my IG posts, if you haven’t check them out, here’s a link to my Instagram account:   https://instagram.com/mxryxngxlx/ . And if in case you didn’t know that I have a blog which is only for photos, here is the link too:   http://indecorouslassphotographs.blogspot.com/ .        

ACCEPTANCE

acceptance noun  ac·cep·tance \ik-ˈsep-tən(t)s, ak-\ : the act of accepting something or someone : the quality of being accepted or acceptable You have done everything but your best was not enough. You sacrificed so much just to achieve it but you still failed. You gave your all for it but it was still not given to you. It’s because some things are not meant for you. Maybe “now” is not the right time. If I fail today, I will try to believe that it was not given to me because it is not that special time YET. Maybe you need to prepare yourself harder and try hardest. You have tried your best but someone is better. You need to assess yourself and improve yourself further. Maybe you’re not yet really ready. Maybe you just think you can, but you actually can’t. It’s not bad to dream, but you should learn how to accept when your dreams won’t come true. Life isn’t a fairytale. You can’t ask your fairy godmother to have this or that, you can’t ask the ge...
