It was started with a downloaded video. Very attractive in a flamboyant sort of way. I have seen pictures of them, topnotch qualities of elites experiencing luxe.

I was fascinated. I devised a way of getting closer to them by simply stalking their accounts. I should have taken a heed of warning- their highlight reels and shows and outfits and travels are needless to say, a pleasurable sight of impressive lifestyle. I was absolutely stunned!

The word that saved the act from being a complete disaster of comparing my life to them was the nine letters, curiosity.

To and fro, I keep my research on my own box. Scattered paraphernalia, a blueprint of future decisions. The final choice will be mine, off course.


I could exalt their appeal by saying, they're such a skilled artists giving an effective performance. Their writings are details on paper that you can see and hear and smell with central message and cadences of the language; their OOTD's are much like those being exhibit on runway; the foods that they eat are delicacies of obvious luscious and unique dishes; added are their travels, hop in the plane for minutes and voila- they're in a new land of diverse culture and breathtaking instagrammable views.

The thing is, there is no slightest dramaturgy. They all savor freebies and extraordinary opportunities because they do, blogging.



What is the profession by the way? Could it be possible at least be on the shoes of those lucky individuals who do things they love and yeah, they're paid for doing it? How to be like them?

Keen market maven with enough sense go after their recommendations. Maybe not exactly the way they do it, but it's a way to dip my toes in the water to test the temperature before plunging in. On my reverie, I felt confident. I would triumph and perhaps ACTUALLY pick up a nice piece of change. And this blog came into existence💫.

📎First ever blog


Blogging certainly seems to have a Midas touch. Discovering fellow bloggers are my versions of metamorphosis.

Never on my younger years on elementary and even in high school wild dreams of this Catherine who wear clothes with subtlety (they said😅) outfits and accessories. Who poses on photos as they said effortlessly good on it. Who travels new places "digging gold" behind it. Continually thriving as if experiencing "pro" and a "real blogger" by disclosing it into my writings.

Let these OOTD speaks for itselves🙌













Beyond are my treasures of "Compliment Jar". Every time somebody notices my blog- amusing and rich, positive feedback of them boost my motivation to continue what I'm doing (sincere thanks pepz😘.)

Every time I influence somebody on traveling this place, wearing this type of OOTD, and being inspire on the morals I disclose, these are my version of victory behind all the hard work of what goes " behind" blogging.

And I thrive for more.

The event had every promise of happiness for what appeared to be "Reaping Season".

Much beyond our daily reach of exposing under the sun with shield of jackets, umbrellas, hats, sunglasses, and shoes- all yielded and patched to surpass those consecutive days of rehearsals.


It was a package of sweats (endeavor manifestation of most senior students), get together with my classmates and other students from different colleges of various majors, the advice and humor of our MC (Sir B.), and above all those inexplicable feeling of hearing the graduation march hymn, is this real?

Turn to the very hectic: had our graduation day rehearsal the whole day and at night occurred our Seniors Ball (Unbelievable guts and determination reserves, but these appointments are true💪).

Apparently we had expected having our rehearsal only in a half day yet, due to our obvious not compelling flow of rites then, it was decided to rather have it the whole day and since we're obedient, their wishes were granted.

The practice ended around six in the evening and most were skeptical as whether to join the night's event or otherwise. Here's the truth: it's impossible to start it at 7 P.M. (Imagine😮).

"Blazing Batch 2019". That was the remark of Sir O. who expresses his amazement to the our incredible participative nature. He wasn't expecting that amid the whole day practice, on the late 10 P.M., dazzling men and women paraded with glamorous attires😍.


The moment I step my feet with silver stilletos stilettos was my " bittersweet " disposition. My goodness! How they had those "extra" outfits? I thought this might one of those conventional gathering. Yeah, you guess it.

I felt as if I'm a fly in the saucer. I was filled with envy. Above all the things I did, why didn't manage to rent some decent gown? Added was the challenge of having a partner to walk on their Oscar Theme, red carpet. Who I will bring?

Those dilemmas continuously clouded my head and I was left hiding amid throng of people in the corner and almost. Almost regretted why I joined.

All the negative notions was forcefully get rid by yrs. truly who insisted on seeing positive. Still, the outfits and partner should never be the metric of my night's happiness- just spoiling me to anticipate on showing: what matter most is the moment not the concrete. The real evils, indeed, of my situation were the power of having rather too much my own way, and a disposition to think a little too well of myself.

To prove to you are these smiles tossed to you over my shoulder.




Companies who had a cheerful manner- always bring out the best of me. It was rather a beautiful moonlight of witnessing talents from dancing, to the brilliant message delivered on their speeches. Plus, we're left with an awe with those beautiful fireworks display.





Being well aware now of what sort of joy I felt. I have seen in no hurry with my congratulations. By the bye, all went of tolebry well. Thanks to the pepz who made this possible. Cheers!

With such, it's one of the greatest amusements in the world. Party! Party! Party!



Success gauge endeavour: time has been properly and delicately spent, you have been endeavouring for the last four years to bring about this moment👏😉. (You already know the pleasure and triumph of a lucky guess😁).

I knew that I had entirely claimed it. Imagining myself on the shoes of those previous graduates. Dreaming. Hoping. You have drawn two pictures and here's the third- a something between the do-nothing and the do-all. Your goals,whatever it is will be realize if you spice actions on attaining it💪. Here I am. Grateful little girl went off with highly gratified feelings😇.



The waiting of two great masters was a trailer action movie of me amid the intents of purchasing a dish rush on running as they called, signaling their arrivals😅. (Apparently, had experience two days with them: love to talk about the pleasures of their visit and describe the many comforts and wonders of this place💞).

In return of the great goodness of the big day, was the addition of Baccalaureate Mass to brace later's event.

With my company, proved to felt comfort when they're around ( never been with this before). I begun to influence them with my schemes: stroll around and had this pictorial exclusive to ours, as others left without realizing the advantages of having an almost empty graduation field.







It's payback time ( took my sweet revenge of not spending bills during our Seniors Ball. I had all the reasons to splurge on my Big Day, as a gracious invitation was received, so I must look glamorous. Why not hahaha!)



Such an organized flow of events- a proof of my good sense of ordering them to bring these and those. All a package on their baggage burdens which in return held convenience. My inclination to our simultaneous eating on our room were a much desirable picture👫👭.

Prior to the very portals of our Big Day was the unexpected, or rather I say, expected "rain". Had its own " show" (belonging to the place to make its merits and prospects a kind of common Blessing).

Here's to give you a vivid picture of the event:








Large debt if gratitude I owe to them. Thanks Ma and Pa for bearing all my summons and wishes. To the big sister who I could request at any time for errands and shows, gratitude to you dear💕.



It's never been easy reaching toward this very moment though all hardships are a must need to spice our worthwhile journey.

Blissful disposition and all the synonym of happiness combine, the best blessing of my existence😇 Gratitude to Him above who never cease on showering blessings🙏 One step towards real world , being pretty well aware of that😃
