Taking Back Sunday (Live in Manila)
Taking Back Sunday was all kinds of awesome last night. I really wanted to cry during and after their first ever show in Manila. (Heh~) The crowd was really great, too! I went home limp (I totally regret nothing!). I was too hyper. I think I’ve consumed all the allowed jumps per person in my entire lifetime. I nearly lost my voice. They were really ten years worth the wait! Fucking hell...

For those asking what you can do to help, please link to visiblechildren.tumblr.com wherever you see KONY 2012 posts. And tweet a link to this page to famous people on Twitter who are talking about KONY 2012!
I do not doubt for a second that those involved in KONY 2012 have great intentions, nor do I doubt for a second that Joseph Kony is a very evil man. But despite this, I’m...

Agedashi Tofu + Salmon Sashimi
Last Tuesday, my sister and I made Agedashi Tofu for dinner. I’m a sucker for Japanese food AND tofu. I asked her to help me out since I came home a bit late from the grocery. It was almost dinner time when I came home. I’ve been thinking about putting up more food posts in my blog. I figured it’s a way for me to get back into blogging again. (Side note: I haven’t been in...

I forgot to blog about this. LOL. Check out this link to see the tutorial for this makeup. It’s not the best but I had fun doing it. I messed up the teeth part, right?
Anyway, I didn’t actually get to attend any of the Halloween events two weeks ago. We had a village trick-or-treat for the kids and I didn’t participate because of Lee’s PFW show. Then the next day, we...

Intraramuros
My best friend and I went to Intramuros last week (randomly). I just told him I wanted to go there (out of the blue) and he said yes right away.
If you’re wondering why my title is ‘Intraramuros’, this was how Azura (from Studio Disney of Disney Channel Asia) pronounced it when they went here to the Philippines during my tween years. She couldn’t pronounce it really well...

Our mentor, Louie, allowed us to take two frames of Chelsea. It was spontaneous! He was like,
“Oh, gusto niyo kunan si Chelsea?”
“Of course.”
“Two frames lang, ah. Go! Tina, ikaw mauna.”
I panicked!
It was a good thing I didn’t change my WB, ISO.. You know.. the whole...

The photography, styling and makeup classes collaborated for this shoot. Our models were Katarina Nemcova and Jasmine Baker.
Makeup for the shoot started as soon as the models came in. Our class and our teacher went out...

Sartorial Challenge / FIP
Our mentor, Louie Pariñas, gave us our very first task since starting with our course in Fashion Photography. We have to take photos of people ala The Sartorialist. My classmates and I were nervous about the challenge since we had to deal with strangers. He gave us two locations to do this challenge: High Street/BGC or Greenbelt. We ended up in BGC.
The challenge was postponed since the rain...

Hertz So Good (120911)
I met Roanna a couple of weeks ago thru Snitch Thursdays. It’s a weekly event thing in Attica. She took jazz and contemporary dance classes at Step By Steph a year ago. She invited me to this event where she will be MC-ing. It was her first time and she asked me if I could take pictures of her. I agreed since it was just in The Keg at The Fort Strip. It’s just 5 minutes away from where...
