Miss Medina 2014

I know, I know. It's a bit late for this post and I'm sorry for posting this late. I was just busy with school stuffs since I'm back into being a school girl, y'know. But it's better late than never, right? So here's my entry as I looked back into where I came from - Medina College!

With College of Pharmacy Dean, Mrs. Caroline Balberan, RPh

Without MUHS' knowledge, I was working as a part-time Chemistry instructor under Ma'am Line for three school years! Lagare lang ang peg! Chinese School by daytime and Medina College by nighttime. On weekends, it were always labbing time with my Pharma studes for our straight and loooong laboratory hours!

With the Pharma Beauts

From left to right: Sha-Sha Saren (Miss Medina 2013 4th Runner-Up), Joebelle Balbona (Miss Medina 2014 1st Runner-Up), and Sigrid Cubillan (Miss Medina 2013 2nd Runner-Up). These girls just prove that Pharma students are not just good-looking but are also witty and gutsy!

With Miss Athletic Icon 2014, Sheen Dela Rosa

And this is my Sheenie!!!!! Sheen was among my "darling second years" in Chinese School. It always amazes me to see how my Chiskul kids grow up so fast! Just look at her! Sheen has grown up to be a beautiful young lady who has kept with her a humble and generous heart.

With Miss Medina 2014, French Kate Hammermüller

One look at her, you'll get intimidated by the ethereal beauty she possesses. One look at her, you'll say that she's just another pretty face. But once you'll get to know her, all your first impressions are nothing but a total mistake! Well, having Kate in my class proved that. She's a brilliant student who can reap out all line of 9's! Though she's busy with her modeling career, she still takes time studying. Being someone as famous as her, she can ditch school but she never does that. School is always her first priority that surprised me. Additionally, she's also a loving daughter. She takes good care of her mom so much and everything that she said during the Q and A portion were true. I can attest that by the way she talks about her mom when she was still under me. Though I only had one semester with her, I could say that I know her 'coz she's transparent and never a pretender.

With the Other Pharma Studes and Another Chinese Schooler

Seeing these kids (except for Paw2x who is now a Lasallian) after sometime makes my heart super glad! I really missed them! They were not only students to me but they were also my barkada. Remember the birthday bash that they threw me two years ago? They are just the sweetest!

With Joemari, Marvel, and Laling

And what's a celebrity without the entourage? Hehe! Thank you, guys for accompanying me!!! :)

Lastly, thanks to my sponsors - Ep2x for the dress and Kring2x for the necklace! And credits to Marvel for my hair and make-up as well as to Laling for taking all the photos! You, guys are just the sweetest support group! <3

Whimsical Wednesday: Hello, World!

Whimsical Wednesday shows my fancy in a myriad of beautiful things.

Hello, world!

I've been waiting for a different kind of place

Oh, hello world!

I've been searching for a different kind of ......

Now, I'm flying into the sky

And I'm ...........

'Coz I'm leaving

I don't know where I'm gonna land

This is only a fraction from my memory of the lyrics of my favorite travel show's theme song way back in high school. I can still even carry out the tune though I haven't heard of it since forever! I tried to google the whole song but there's no search results. So I guess, it must've been ancient. I'm also in doubt if the show was Lonely Planet but I'm 99% sure it was. But anyway, then was only a dream to travel the world. Then was only an imagination to go out there. And as I think about it tonight, I've come to realize that all good things take time so that when you get it, you appreciate it all the more and know its worth!

Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Macau

Where to next?

Oooops! I remember the show. It was THE TRAVELERS!!!!!!

Manic Monday Recreated

Monday - the beginning of the week for school and work (Urban Dictionary)

Manic - having or relating to mental illness that causes someone to become very excited or emotional (Merriam-Webster Dictionary)

Manic Monday - a very stressful day to start a week! (Then)

Manic Monday - a very relaxing day which replaced my Sundays.... (Now)

With all the crazy work load I have (weekday regular classes, weekend masteral classes, store duties, etc.), I'm still glad God vacated my Monday afternoons for relaxation! It's just that today, I had over-relaxed to give time reconnecting with different sets of friends! Here's how my aftie was:

Lunch at Big J Grill House With MM and Atsi Ann

Dessert at Cafe Eduardo

After my 6 PM - 7 PM class, I thought my day would end but Cherry Ann called up for a Tuslob Buwa experience!

With Cherry Ann, Ann Lorien, Princess, and Queenie

Ishi and Shania Writing and Posting Their Experience

To wrap up the day, a cup of tea is best all the way! So back to my favorite couch at Cafe Eduardo! :)

This time, with Carl Antoni "DJ Carlo"

See, a manic Monday cannot be that manic at all! If you hate Mondays, find ways to recreate 'em. Though we're gonna be early for school and work tomorrow, it still pays to give in to late nights with friends ~~and tea~~! Oh, we're already maturing!!!! Haha! 'Till next time, guys! :)
