Hello December!

Browsing through Tumblr's dashboard, and i have been eye-ing on different "Hello December" photos.

Christmas Eve is fast approaching. There's 24 days left before it. Meaning, It's Winter! Sweaters, Hoodies, Boots, High Socks, Tights, and Sweatpants! 

Christmas Wishlist:

• Mizuno Volleyball Shoes - because i'm really obsessed with volleyball, and i have no appropriate volleyball shoes.
• Laptop - any brand of laptop will do, i just need to have one for my personal use, for my own programs and files.
• Volleyball Training Bag - i want one because i left my Rebook training bag in the Philippines. 

I would love to have them all on December 24. I'll be the happiest girl living, if that happens.

Anyway, in last season's volleyball tournament, I found my inspirations, and idols - Namely, Shella Marga, Maffy Maca, and Sang Arcega. I have been really very obsessed with the way they play.

So friends, here's another part of my Wishlist. 

• I ♥ SHELLA MARGA shirt 
• I ♥ MAFFY MACA shirt
• I ♥ SANG ARCEGA shirt

Please do get me one. =(

Anyway, we have lots of upcoming activities/programs in School;

• Practice for Intrams
• EOT Spikers Christmas Party
• UAE Nat'l Day
• 2nd Quarterly PT
• PRESSURE STRESS
• PRESSURE STRESS
• PRESSURE STRESS
• Finishing of the 2nd quarter grades and all that
• Christmas Party
• DLSU - Main Entrance Test
• UST - Entrance Test
• DUPLAYS VBALL 4TH SEASON

Anyway, i'm off to bed! I still need to find my 8 gb memory card, so i could start taking pictures.

Goodbye November!

It was our School's celebration of UAE's 40th year!  So we didn't have any classes. We had a very very fast program made by the SSC for the dance presentation of different levels, and also conducted some booths for the Intermediate Dept.  My schedule was a bit hectic, so i wasn't able to blog in the past few weeks/days. But here i am, blogging - before 2nd quarter PT starts. 

We also had our recent activity which is to free ourselves from stress.  Had so much fun with the Seniors! 

Played games, and ice skated with the Senior Girls!

Finally! An outfit post, after 1321893483278042374283 years! 

So the other day, we had TPL's photo-shoot at the open-area behind Chiin's place which was a very good place to take pictures and relax, btw.   So after, the main shoot - Chiin and I, had our own Outfit Photos!

We abused the lighting at the Staircase of the Parking place near them <3333333

I decided to wear shorts because it's much more comfortable to use than jeans, plus we went to the Beats on the Beach event in Corniche. 

Wore this Sebago shoes which Dad bought me months ago because i need the perfect shoes, with style to use for running, walking fast.  Plus, it matches the print on my shirt and my belt - so i decided to wear them instead of Gladiator Sandals and Flats.

Thankyou Chiin for the wonderful photos!

The Preloved x Sneak Peak

Last thursday, we had the shoot for TPL with Patricia Villanueva as our ' The First ' collection model.

We had our mini photoshoot at the Park near Chiin's place in Khalifa Street. It was really nice to have the photoshoot on that day because of the cold breeze plus its effect on Pat's hair.

I and Chiin, had the chance to pose for the Camera and had our outfits taken. So we din't waste the chance!

It will be on my next post!

The Preloved!

• What is Preloved? 

The Preloved is a small clothing business, or other fashion related stuff mini online shop founded by Chiin Gandia, and Yours Truly last week through BBM. 

• What made us create this mini online shop?

So last week, we were chatting on BBM about Thrift Stores, and our clothes. Then, we decided to sell our ''Pre- loved' clothes and things which we don't use anymore in a very very low/cheap price - so we could have our own savings and use it for some more clothes, and pretty stuffs.

• What can be found in 'The Preloved' ?

You could find clothes mostly from H&M, Bershka, Forever21, and other Thrifted Clothes from Bangkok, USA, and more here from 30 dhs - down.  There would also be bags, clutches, pouches, and accessories available from 3 dhs - up!
