Day 30 - something you fear

blue-toungued lizard found in Australia

I saw this photo a few months ago in Nat Geo's twitter. I was sooooooo amazed that I got it. I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate reptiles and amphibians! I only like turtles, everything else, I hate and  and I'm mighty scared! I wouldn't  run if I see a cockroach but if I see a lizard, I'm faster than a blink of an eye!

Maroon 5 is forever. Maroon 5 is L-O-V-E. ♥♥♥

This awesome band has a lot of great songs that I really like but topping my list would be She Will be Loved. Classic Maroon 5. :)

Day 28 - favorite song with lyrics and why

The Way You Look Tonight by The Lettermen

This very awesome song cam from the Lettermen but after decades has earned a lot of different versions. I really love the one made by Michael Bublé ♥ Then just this September I heard a version from Maroon 5 ♥♥♥

I wanted someone to sing this for my 18th birthday. My pap did :D I think my sister heard me say something about it and told pa that. I was really surprised! This is a very sweet song. I want this played for my wedding :)

There is nothing for me but to love you

And the way you look tonight

Closing my eyes and hearing Adam Levine singing this to me ♥♥♥

Day 27 - favorite INTERNATIONAL ACTRESS and why

Don't you just love her??

My current and probably forever favorite, Zooey Deschanel ♥♥♥ I first saw her in 500 Days of Summer and because I am soooooo in love with that movie, I fell in love with her too :) She reminds you of Katie Perry. You can catch her in the series New Girl as Jess, a teacher. Pareho kami! :) yeeeeeey!!!

Summer and Jess are forever ♥♥♥

Day 26 - favorite INTERNATIONAL ACTOR ( walang and why 'to ah )

Day 25 - favorite LOCAL celebrity BOY and why

Local celebrity boys are my favorite for one thing: gwapo! I have a few eyecandies in the local show business but on top of my list right now is Juan Miguel de Guzman aka Angelito, ang batang ama! Oh JM!!!♥♥♥

Aside from the obvious that he is very gwapo, JM finished school in UP, so not an airhead. He is also into music. There is nothing more aliw than a musikero boy  =) It doesn’t end there. The boy has tats. Okay, some may disapprove of this, but I like mabaho, madumi-looking boys. JM is far from being both but tats give you an idea of dumi in the body. For me, it actually depends on the tat. He has a rosary, now how adorable is that?? ♥ On his back, he has a tat of his little sister who passed away (I don’t know why). Extra gwapo points! I can say that he is a sweet kuya.

He is also into sports. He did amateur wrestling in the past. He even joined MMA. Oha! Not lampa at all. Gwapo, musikero, atleta, nakakaaliw, ano pa bang hihilingin mo? Oh JM!!! Akin ka na lang. Please?? ;p

Day 24 - favorite LOCAL celebrity GIRL and why

I don't have any favorite with the locals. But if I had to choose one, it would be Alessandra de Rossi. I love her morena beauty. She is very comfortable in her own skin. Payatot pero whoa! She exudes confidence so well that it makes her beautiful. She is a good actress too :) Let's go (not-so) Pinay beauty! ♥

   Day 23 - something you do when you're bored

When I'm bored, I go on a DVD marathon. Well, not really. I watch 500 Days of Summer :) I watched it upon the prodding of my brother.  Imagine that! It proved to be an okay movie until I realized it's actually awesome! I used to watch it every night but schedule got oh so busy so whenever I'm bored and have some free time, I make sure I get to watch it. Sumasabay na nga ako sa lines ni Tom eh.  hahaha!


Oh Summer, you are such a hassle! But because of you, Autumn exists! :)

Much love! ♥♥♥

Day 22 - favorite cartoon character and why

I used to have the biggest crush on this guy who loves Mickey Mouse! The fondness for Mickey kind of stuck with me until now :) Who wouldn't want to be with Mickey on the Happiest place on Earth eh?? ♥♥♥

                            Day 21 - something that can turn your frown upside down

                                                            from :l to :D

17 recent SMS that turned my frown upside down :D I love getting random, heart-warming SMS from people that matter. I like making people smile and if I can, even making their day. :) I have difficulty in accepting compliments and it really fascinates me when I am called an angel. I now feel that they're not just saying it to fool me.

                                               Day 20 - something that makes you sad

                                                                 injustice

Injustice makes me terribly sad. I wait for the day that justice will be served in this country. I've had these photos because I wrote blogs about it.

On the left, was when Mamang Lauro Vizconde heard the news that the suspects were innocent (I forgot the exact word) and the old man was literally weeping. It broke my heart :((

On the right, is the badge that media made to protest the biggest massacre ever done to mediamen. 2nd anniversary is coming up and justice is still playing hide and seek.

p.s photos were downloaded from the net long before this challenge happened

Day 19 - one reason for you to smile

Happier days during special trips ;p

A freezer full of Häagen-Dazs will surely be one reason for me to smile :D It's heaven on earth. Ice cream is forever love! It doesn't have to be Häagen-Dazs but it would be extra kilig if you get me this. Local ice cream would be fine :) I scream for ice cream!

Day 18 - favorite book and why

My top favorite would have to be Catcher in the Rye. I don't have a personal photo of it and I have my own rule of posting my own photos in this challenge. So I looked for a photo of a book that I really like and found this. I took these photos last year. It was what I asked for my wishlist in Kris Kringle. I combined these photos so I would be able to have just one photo :))

On top is the Kite Runner. It's about two Afghan boys coming from different social classes. It talks about the struggles of both boys who grew up together.

Below is A Thousand Splendid Suns, the title coming from a famous Afghan poem. This book tells the struggles of Afghan women. Taliban has made life in Afghanistan unbearable for women.

These books made me want to see Afghanistan one day. I really believe it's an awesome place underneath all the war and violence. Insha'Allah! :)

p.s Both books were written by Khaled Hosseini

Day 17 - sweetest picture of you with someone special

 DISCLAIMER: I was supposed to crop the girl from this photo when I realized she played a very important role in my life. These two people would fall in the category of someone special :)

Meet Sandra aka My Lollipop. She's a year younger than me. We went to the same school and are close friends. We were on the same volleyball team so we really are close. She's the closest girl to me from their batch ♥♥♥ Though she is thousand of miles away, we manage to stay connected. I feel that she's just here. To infinity and beyond lollipop! I will be forever grateful for all your kalocohan. I wouldn't realized it if it weren't because of you.
 
Meet Karl aka Karlito. A very close friend and that special someone who I really liked for the longest time. People thought we were an item. At one point, I thought we were too. Then I screwed things up. We were able to fix it then it was sort of a cycle.

This photo was taken when lollipop tagged him along in school. She wanted me to see him after a long time, much to my dismay! Look at how happy we all are in this photo :) Sandy smiling for the camera while we were laughing about something (I forgot what). This would be the sweetest photo I could ever get of us. Him holding my hand, trying to get that watergun he bought for me.Everything was natural. Captured moment right there. Happy day! :)

I got closer with him this year but just like the other times, it still didn't work. It was almost there, but wasn't really there. Oh well.

One thing is for sure. He, together with lollipop will always have a special spot in my heart.

Day 16 - ultimate crush and why

Ang hirap naman nito! Lahat ng kilala ako, alam na madami akong crush. As in! Pero dahil sabi ultimate crush, madali lang yan. Please allow me to have two ;p One local and one international ♥

On the left is Rich Herrera. He's a model and won Amazing Race Asia last year. Crush ko siya since 4th year highschool days ko. I used to see him in the badminton court... sa ad! hahaha! I like him because he is a certified eyecandy! Eyes that will melt you and a smile that will charm you to death! Oh! Great body to boot too ♥

On the right is Adam Levine. Should I still explain why he's my ultimate crush? Nuff said. Kidding! Adam is sexeeeey! As in smokin'! Oh, that voice! Plus, he has a good heart :) Maroon 5 is lalalooooove ♥

Day 15 - sexiest shot

The first out of town trip with the crew in Playa Calatagan, summer of 2007. Mum and ate picked this bikini for me :) Kuya didn't want me to wear it, too skimpy daw. Ate said it was about time that I wear a triangle top! I'm of legal age when I wore this kind of bikini. This was the time when I used to do ab work-out. Ngayon wala ng work- out. Puro na lang work or puro na lang out. hahaha

VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED

Day 14 - creepiest photo you have

photo is in black and white. too graphical if not

I was looking for a photo of me. I saw one but I forgot which folder it was in. I tried looking for it over the weekend but all I got was a headache from browsing thru my gazillion photos. I read the topic again and saw that it was the creepiest photo I have, not exactly a photo of me.

Being hemophobic (someone who fears blood), I had to muster all guts to actually watch how a pig is being butchered. I panic at the mere sight of blood! That is something creepy for me. I took pity on the poor creature. I watched the entire procedure from start to end. I literally became a vegetarian for a day (I can't last more than a day of not eating meat). I'm really sorry if you are someone for animal rights.

Day 13 - most loved athlete and why

Initially, I wanted my photo alone but I would look like I'm full of myself. I am definitely an athlete although I wasn't able to make it big. I love playing sports and my greatest dream WAS to play for the National Team. I play a lot of sports but I really want to try soccer since 2009! Now, somebody grab me that spikes please :)

Chi Chu (Chris Tiu) is my highschool love! The first time I saw him on a magazine back in 2004, my heart skipped a beat. He's probably my biggest crush in the basketball world. I remember me and my friends got that very elusive tickets to a La Salle- Ateneo game back when we were in highschool! Nasa green side kami pero nagccheer ako for the blue team. Ang awkward lang! This photo was taken when my college friends and I watched Ateneo vs. UST game.

Day 12 - prettiest place you've ever been

The Beautiful Island of Capones

I was thinking of what was the prettiest place I've been through and a few places came to mind. I had to trim it down and fiinally, I came up with this one. Local na, breath-taking pa! :)Capones is an island found in Zambales. Away from civilization, the island doesn't get network signal except on top of the lighthouse. Trek to the lighthouse is extremely challenging but all worth it. I love nature and this island showcases that :) ♥

Day 11- dream destination

Ever since I saw that black and white drawing of a gondola in a river from my Nido coloring book when I was six or seven, I thought to myself that I must ride that awesome boat one day.

Fast-forward to a couple of years after, I still wanted to go there. Now that I'm mature and wiser, I promised myself that I would go there one day with mum and pap and perhaps ate too (kuya are you coming with us?) to go and see Venice in Italy.

I will ride a gondola, enjoy it and perhaps ask the gondolier to let me steer for a moment and I would sing "Hopiang 'di mabili, may amag sa tabi!" Seriously :))
 
Wait for me Venice!♥

p.s So far, this is the only photo that wasn't from my own collection of photos in the computer. This was photographed by my good friend, Keisie :)

Day 10 - a picture of your best friend

I don't usually brand these two awesome people as my bestfriends. I have given up on that word a long time ago. I've had one too many bestfriends who sad to say didn't want me as their bestfriends. So I thought of abandoning the label. It puts pressure just like when you are in a relationship. Ah basta yun! Anyway...


Meet Meg. I've known her since casa days in school. We became friends in gradeschool and bestfriends (I'd like to believe we are) since highschool until now. We may be thousand of miles apart but please don't forget, I always have your back :) Holler at me yo! I miss you soooo bad. Jetlag!

Meet Ton. It all started with a joke. But we took the joke seriously and now he's my guy bestfriend :) We've had our fair share of misunderstandings. Believe me, guys can be so melodramatic than girls! But we always manage to be there when one needs a pat on the back and a hug when our hearts get broken :l

To infinity and beyond! :)

Day 08 - picture of someone you miss

te extraño mucho!

I miss a lot of people. These would be someone (s). I can't choose just one so what I did was to make a collage of all the people I miss the most. They are miles away from me so I have this song in my mind...

You say good morning

When it's midnight

Going out of my head

Alone in this bed

I wake up to your sunset

And it's driving me mad

I miss you so bad

And my heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged

Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged

Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged

I miss you mucho!

Now, Some of these people in the photo are just in the metro but I haven't seen them for ages. I miss the good old times with them. Kitakits naman dyan! :)

It's been months since the last time we've ever "talked". Let's have Word Play soon playmate :) Keep up the good work doll! :) I hope to see you soon ♥

Day 06 - a picture that makes you smile

It is one photo! :) Photos made into one so as not to violate the topic :) I love going to the beach with my favorite people. I also like adventures that sometimes call for a lot of physical strength and faith. The best way to end the year is in the company of great, old fellas who will be with you through thick and thin. I love babies and kiddos! I love them dearly. bambino and bambina that you see in this photo are my godchildren. I am a proud ninang to such good-looking and well-mannered tykes. Nothing beats celebrating the holiday with the clan! It makes it extra fun! Adam Levine is forever! A piece of heaven on earth ♥♥♥

Who wouldn't be smiling if you see this photo? :)

Day 04 - picture of your favorite superhero and why

Team Lydiaffy ♥♥♥

No they don't wear costumes...that's what sets them apart from the usual superheroes. They don't need costumes just to be my superhero. I was raised by these two ordinary parents but went all the trouble to give me and my siblings the best life there is. They can't be separated. They are a team. They are always there in the most challenging times of my life and took the bullet for me. Now, how super can your superhero get eh?? :)

Day 03 - picture of your favorite shirt and why

I got these shirts for my 21st natal. My good friend, Janelle gave it to me :) Aside from the colors, I love these shirts because it is comfy, light and I really like the style. I also don't need to iron it! hahaha! I just grab it from the drawer and voila! ;p
