Photo Diary: Bazooka Rocks Festival 2

This post is actually super late. It took me quite a while to start and finish since i'm pretty busy in school. I went through a phase of not really knowing what to do. I literally spent whole month sulking in my room with the worst post concert depression ever—well, post festival depression. I will just share a couple of photos, i won't be posting my Bazooka Rocks experience since it's pretty long and i don't think people will read it — it's like ten pages essay, so yeah.

Back to bullets, btches!

• Mix tape i’m listening to is PERFECT
• School is coming!!!! 
• Some people are so ugly and i just don’t mean physically. tell me how can someone be so ugly both physically and attitude wise??? isn’t that such a horrible thing to be? 
• Thoughts of you put me in trance
• Maybe you want to come and visit?
• Last night’s sleep was one of the best sleep I had. Continuous and freezing cold room.
• “I want you with me”
• Thoughts about school either make me anxious or excited. I don’t know who’s leading though.
• Teenage Crime - Adrian Lux
• So many good indie songs
• My thoughts are so disorganized
• Just had my vtr at Summit Media for Candymag Correspondents. Hope i get it!
• Missing you, ocean blue
• Sometimes life is really good.
• there are lines in a song where i think of you and i smile.
• I can’t breath, i’m in too deep so take me up to the surface.
• Good lord, thank you for good songs.

Vintage Shop: TGM

I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW that was it was unhealthy being stuck here in this country during summer break. But on the bright side, TGM was another one of those little corner vintage shops in the midst of scorching hot Manila, away from the flagship stores and inevitable crowds. I had been looking for an old-school records known as "vinyl" for quite some time now; I have a friend that loves indie music and vintage stuff. Music Albums of similar genre as ranged from around about 1400 (35 USD) to 2000 (50 USD). It's kinda expensive. I'm really looking forward to buy at least 5 albums. Mhm..

Below are the albums that are available. Only got a few from their site, though.

Five Things

Current guilty pleasure: Books! 

Love collecting these lip balms.

Muji 

Ever since I was a little girl, I’d stock up on all sorts of stationery. And I’d keep them in a box that unfolds into a mini desk with drawers! I also collect notebooks with pretty cover designs.

Cartier love bracelet 

 I'm so in love with these bracelets, probably because the Kardashians/Jenners wear cartiers, lol. It's kinda expensive, though. I'm really looking forward to buy the love ring with matching pandora charm bracelet. Ah, lovely! 

Ferrero Rocher (self-explanatory)

Photo Diary: Asteria 2013 (b&w)

LAST MONTH, my friends and I went to Asteria 2013 held in our school and here's a collection of photographs I took of that night (or not). I know it's a bit late, but it's best that I showed you guys what went down that night from my perspective. Wild dance party, food, live music, etc. - it's safe to say that anything could've went down that night. Another big ups to the organizers for such a good night!

Your evil twin (Tracianne and Trasienne)

I'm trying to get my artistic endeavor up and that includes looking through potential photos. What I love about photography is the ability to tell a story without the use of words. They say a photo is equivalent to a thousand words and it's obviously true! The simpleness of a single photograph could be seen as dull, beautiful or even ugly. Significant or meaningless. It's just funny how life works it's basically one big domino effect?

Anyway, going back to what I was saying, inspiration; it's actually everywhere. I have stumbled upon Your Evil Twin a year or so ago, and I immediately fell in love with the vignette, grainy feel. the photographs are effortless, but gratifyingly pleasing to the eye. Almost as if their photos have come out straight from an editorial, wow!

Candy Fair 2012 photo diary

My friends and I went to the Candy fair last September 22, 2012 at Megatent Event Venue, Libis.  Candy Magazine has been a part of my top magazines next to Vogue and J-14. At first, the thought of going didn't really cross my mind. As the months inched closer, I found myself having moments of throwbacks. Of course Candy fair isn't complete without the so-called Candy Cuties, celebrity performances, food booths, etc. the Paras brothers, Andre and Kobe didn't show up in the event so my friends and I found ourselves disappointed. But overall, the event was amazing to say the least. Actually, amazing is an understatement. 

The Temper Trap - Trembling Hands

The Temper Trap will release their second album, The Temper Trap, ohmygawd! Out of the few songs that have been released into the magical world of internet (lol), Trembling Hands had me from the intro. The chord progression is simply magnificent! It's without a doubt that their upcoming album will get positive reviews, as always. 

This track is beautiful, hands down.
