Edith Piaf - La Vie En Rose

I just finished watching this quirky french movie entitled " Love me if you dare ". I must say that it was so worth watching, aside from the fact that I super like it coz' I'm a Marion Cotillard fan *I do not intend to be biased though*.It depicts an everlasting love, a love that is so pure and patient. I must say it was a selfish love but also self-punishing. A game that never ends, a love that never fades.

Oh I really suck describing love..TROLOLOLOL!!!!So much about that love thingy. I somewhat fell in love with this song the moment Sophie ( Marion Cotillard's role in this movie) sang it during the burial of Julien's mother. I really have this affection for oldies song ( especially french ones). I don't know why but everytime I listen to those songs, memories, vague memories, keep flashing in my head as well emotions, ineffable ecstasy , rushing through my heart. Sometimes it feels like I already existed before and I'm back now to pursue or undone something, either way, I'm psyched at the thought of existing before. I wonder what I have done in those days.....

Deuxième jour

On the second day of nine mornings, it rained so hard and it was very cold so I decided to wear a cardigan over my Green dress.

I totally enjoyed listening to our parish priest's homily. It was so humorous and at the same time an eye-opener too. It was like I was laughing at my own fault, laughing at those mistakes I once or habitually committed. It really feels good to hear and contemplate on God's words. It feels like the huge hunch from my heart was slowly melting.

I'm really looking forward for the next day's homily ^__________^.

The green dress only cost about 25php but it cost me lot for resizing it, since the original size was way too big for me. That's actually a common problem in purchasing clothes from a thrift shop, once you see something you like, you cannot ask for your size, it's like take it or leave. A sad reality from thifting.

The purple cardigan was from a local store in our town. I'm starting to patronized that store lately, I've been buying there more often than I thought. Well, the store sells cardi's and accessories in a  a cheaper price than those from other stores around the city.

First day of the Nine Mornings^^

It's the start of the Simbang gabi, and I'm really uber excited about it, I mean throughout my existence I never tried completing the Nine Mornings. 

I was so busy before and waking up so early is so hard to do ( *really hard, I mean sleeping before during my college years  is a luxury*) since I have school after or a clinical duty, I was extremely deprived of my time before but not now that I'm already done with school XD.

So to make any difference I'd like to complete the nine mornings. Yes, indeed. I also have another agenda why I'd like to complete it, aside from the fact that Simbang gabi is a tradition, it's also very famous for it's sacred " wish come true thingy" . I mean elders say that once you complete the nine mornings your wish will come true. 

Though it isn't 100% reliable but still it's a win-win for me, I get to go to church for nine days and if I'll be lucky my wish will also come true, either way it's greatly okay for me ^___^.

This is the first dress that I designed it myself, the details of the dress is super simple and feminine ( I was way too girly during those years though..LOL!!)

Gladly I was able to wear again this dress after 2 years..

Luckily it still fits me ^^. 

can't wait for the succeeding days of the Simbang Gabi, I  really hope I'll be able to complete it.  

         Goodluck to me ^___^.

XOXO,

A spooky way to kill some time

My friends ( Mia, Lanie and Gie) and I feel so bored  so we ended up doing something spooky and entertaining.

So we came up with the idea of taking photos in this scary, secluded area in the city.We were hoping to capture something creepy :D but we ended up imitating ( in our own strangest way ) those editorial type poses..*pukinglaugh*hahaha 

Pardon me if this post seems to be so narcissistic.

Sometimes vanity just strikes my blood bringing most of it to my brain.*vanity-brain attack*

the starting area where we start walking looking for a nice spots for photo taking^^

preparing to change my sneakers for some not-so-comfy- heels

 testing..testing..testing..LOLOLOL!!!

 this is the one I post at chictopia. 

I really suck at pouting my lips, I look so gross. ( well, sometimes self -criticism is healthy :D)

Here's Lanie, she's really good in posing, she really has a great potential in modelling.

as evidenced by this photo.

we wander through the vastness of darkness searching for a nicer place to shoot.

we look like we're running away from home :D

 We found this monkey bars and our quirky minds never waste the opportunity to play with it, fiercely

 posing, internalizing the act of modelling. ( subjectively speaking though, in case you might object XD). 

Do these photos look creepy???

This was the most enjoyable and funniest part . Lanie and I we're just like fooling around. 

^_____________^.

here's some of my fave of Lanie's photos ^_____^.

 We were so tired and  hungry from our adventures and so we ate our late dinner like monsters deprived from eating for months...hahaha

XOXO,
Leonede.
