Here's me blogging FINALLY in my room.

Pardon the haggard look on my face - I just got home after walking through the strong rain and chilly wind after attending the Tournament of the Champions held at SM Annex earlier today. I was supposed to cosplay Lenalee Lee of D.gray-man, but in the end I had to leave my costume at home for personal reasons. Maybe next time, Lenalee. 

Kenso, on the other hand, cosplayed Shun Ukiya of Gatekeepers. This actually made us realize that our generation is somewhat dwindling (for lack of a better term). Virtually no one recognized who he was, except for our friends (who are roughly around the same age as Kenso and I) and one other passerby who was kind enough to take a picture with him. It saddened me how such great animes like Gatekeepers could be overtaken by other shows, regardless if they are new. I guess I just miss the old days.

Pics of the event later, I'm waiting for Kenso to finish uploading the rest of the pictures. Ja!

Surprised? Yeah, so am I. I just stopped by a shop because I'm already an hour late for school so I decided to just wait for 12.30 so I can head off to my next class.

I often wonder how I course through life with this attitude I have. I feel like I'm the worst person in the world to even have such great parents, great friends and an awesome boyfriend - and I even had the gall to feel depressed. I don't even know why LOL. I didn't find anyone to talk to but I somehow managed to not care again. Whatever.

We're now living in the new house for at least a month (and still no internet) and so far everything's going okay. They had to stop the construction because mom didn't like their work or something and she wants to look for new people again. But that's okay. Dad's leaving for the Middle East again sometime next week, smack in the middle of my midterms so I won't be able to come with them to the airport to send him off. Drat.

About 20 days after my last post, it is safe to say that I have done nothing productive ever since. Oh, except on the first week I went to Cavite to join  my group Dexterity Collective for our first anniversary shoot. Our concept was Born this Way, something they've been brewing for a long time and I was so happy to have been a part of the shoot ^______^ Here's a bit of my favorite shots:

 Shot by Franz Gatchalian.

There were six models - three boys and three girls. Won't be posting their shots because I don't know if it's okay that I do LOL. Please visit our main website here for more shots of this shoot and our other past shoots. :)

Then last Saturday Kenso and I went to the Philippine Normal University for their annual Tanabata Festival. The last time they held that event we were both there but didn't cross paths because we both kept moving around mingling with the other attendees. He wasn't my boyfriend yet back then LOL. This year not much people attended but we did get to see some of our friends. We got there late because I had classes and he had to bake some cookies we were supposed to sell on that event. They didn't come out right, though, no matter what we did so we just gave them away XD.He cosplayed Neji from Naruto~ 

Nica, Kenso, Maddie, Jameer, Joanna and Kim at the end of the event.

Then there's me stuck in my school uniform because I left parts of my costume at home.

We went to Robinson's right after the event to get something to eat and play at the arcade because that's what cosplayers do! LOL except I never hung out at arcades and I can't play shit besides those shooting games. Spell loser? Haha.We stopped by McDonald's before entering the mall, though. Had to eat, too hungry for words. I couldn't stop laughing at Markee and his jokes! It was probably the first time I've ever laughed that hard in a while~ 

We hung out at the arcade for a few hours and played a few games. It was then that I noticed that that coin-dropping-jackpot-machine thing had some tickets dangling from its slot. I took the tickets, and then the machine made some sort of jingle and out came more tickets! I took those too and after a few minutes more tickets came spewing out! When Kenso and the others noticed what I was doing they all wanted in and we spent a few bucks dropping one-peso coins to see who could make the tokens fall using the least coins LOLz. It was pretty fun and by the end of the night we all accumulated about 305 tickets which we traded in for lollipops and pencils so we could all share the prizes evenly :D 

Us, brandishing the ChupaChups we all won from the coin-toss thingy.

L-R: Nica, Jameer, Joanna, Markee, Maddie and me.

That's it for now, I guess. More stories soon, including one where I almost waved a cleaver and a butcher's knife at some people because they were trespassing on our property. :D I hope that phone company would install our internet soon. Ja!

PS: I am not crazy. I promise!

Just a quick update. We're now living in the newly-furnished and decorated house and yesterday was our first time to actually spend the night there, even though most of our stuff including our beds had been transferred to our new room a week before. My sister and I stayed behind in the old house for a bit and waited until our father had arrived here in Manila. Now that he's here we officially moved in to the new house to sort of celebrate his arrival. Had a short drinking session last night with my brother, uncle and father before I went to bed (finally! My sister and I have been camping out in the old house for a week and we slept on a comforter).

It been a rainy week and I wasn't able to come to class today. I have no idea if they suspended classes but somehow I didn't care. It's probably because of the weather but lately I've been feeling so down and lethargic to even do anything. It's not much of a sinking feeling, but it's not unlike an empty, sickening sensation. It's like being lost in a supermarket when you came there all by yourself. So now, I've not done anything productive at all for the past week, and I can't bring myself to begin with a task.

I'll probably need someone to talk to. That or the weather must just be getting the best of me. The sun's been missing for almost a month now after all.

I have to go back now. Ja.

PS: I'll edit this later.
