0952pm, Bedroom
I’m thinking of doing something I’ve never done before this new year. It’s called the Project 365. The concept is pretty simple - I take a photo a day for one year and post it online.
Photographs have special places in everyone’s hearts. When people are asked what they’re going to salvage from their burning house, the popular answer is often the family album.

Nine for 2009
99. Spill nine secrets before the year 2009 ends. No sugarcoating. No playing safe. ♥ My sisters used to bully me and call me Charitoy (later on shortened to Ritoy). Hideous, I know. ♥ My birthday is one of my least liked days of the year. Because honestly, I cry every birthday. And it’s not tears of joy. ♥ I love attention. It’s innate in me, I guess. So what I do is I channel it to...

Eternity
Char: Ang ganda talaga sa L'Fisher Hotel!
Abby: Aah, kasi may eternity.
Char: *puzzled* Huh? Ano sabi mo?
Abby: Eternity.
Char: Bahahahaha!
Abby: Eternity pool di ba?
Round 2 for Abby. Translated from Ilonggo.

It's that time of the year again
Everyone is doing these nostalgic, year-ender notes and posts in their blogs and Facebook accounts. But I figured that writing a long, text-heavy post about 2009 is kind of typical and traditional. So I decided to take it the old school way by answering a survey at Bzoink. These sorts of surveys really push my brain to think hard. I suggest you do a survey too. :>
END OF 2009 SURVEY Created...

Tonight is going to be one of those times when one makes a decision that will last forever.
I will fix my life tonight.
I shall start with my laundry.
Alleluia.

0404am, On the edge of the bed
I changed my theme today. It’s been a while since I did some html geeky stuff, so I tweaked the css code of my theme and voila - a transformation. I guess I am pretty much an addict. I am an addict to whatever I am doing on the internet that keeps me up ‘til the wee hours of the night. It’s Christmas day for petra’s sake, and I’m on tumblr editing my theme! Yes, yes....

You can't always get what you want
We just have to find a way to improvise and outsmart our unfortunate circumstances. Thank God there is Adobe Photoshop - the answer for poor people who have an inclination for photography. ;)
From this raw photo (taken by a prehistoric Sony DSC)
To this cross-processed and faked lomographic photo.
There is even a decent name for this hobby of faking - digital photography.
I guess I’m...

Funky music and wild boars
Abby: Ano ba yan? White boy or wild boy?
Char: Hindi. Wild boar. *Joking*
Abby: Aah. *Singing* Play that funky music wild boar.

0404pm, Living Room
I have to stop this kind of lifestyle now. I slept at 4 am again doing who-knows-what on the internet. I seriously have to pull myself together and do something productive, say, write my 5-page paper on Brillante Mendoza’s movie Lola, or start with my interview guide, or at least do the outline of our 15-page Communication 100 paper. Oh, I have a major production tuck under my belt, too. But...

0135am, Floating in midair
Tin and I we’re talking last night at the Sunken Garden Tambay Trip about our inclination (no, make it passion) towards photography. I shared how euphoric I felt having taken hold of my classmate’s Nikon digital SLR camera for the whole afternoon to cover the Lantern Parade. I was just clicking and clicking the moments away. There were just so many good shots to take, I almost...

0845pm, The Sunrise Couch
I don’t have any cash in my wallet. I don’t have grades of straight flat uno’s. And I don’t have a jock type of boyfriend.
Yet I know I am living life to the fullest.
Thank you Jesus. You are Love beyond all reason.
You are the greatest adventure-planner in the entire universe, and last night was the bomb.
I feel so all kilig to the bones inside. Teehee. ;)

The good ol' survey
I once again reconnected with my younger self and did one of those surveys I used to answer patiently back in my friendster, jologs days. It’s been a while since I did such a thing. There is no “About Me” page here on tumblr, so I figured this would be a refreshing way of introducing myself. I have to say I haven’t really been so welcoming in opening a part of myself to...

0305am, Memory Lane
It is 3 am in the morning, I have a Pol sci 14 exam tomorrow, yet here I am writing once again. *Alleluia* It’s been a long time brain cells. It’s good you folks are gradually reviving.
I’ve been reconnecting with my “younger” self in the past week. It’s evident here in my tumblr - numerous reblogs of 90’s memorabilia, photos from childhood, blog entries...

Glee episode 13 practically blew my mind away! I had goosebumps all the while the glee kids were performing. The icing on the cake was their final performance, wherein they put together all the production numbers they did throughout the season. SERIOUSLY PEOPLE! I’t’s refreshing to have a television show like Glee. THREE THUMBS UP! (I sound like an obssessed fan girl o_0 )
