Visiting the Pinto Art Museum in Antipolo


((Been working on this post for 2 months and today I've decided to hell with it, I'll just post whatever I've finished before I decide to completely rid the world of this post))

I've been spending a lot of time outside and no, it's not because I'm out partying or going on cool outdoor adventures. It's because I'm studying for college entrance tests in several review centers. I have classes every other day and I'm mostly doing homework in between, so I literally have no time for anything else.

Thankfully, last April 28th was a holiday! My mom, my sister, and I decided to go to the Pinto Museum in Antipolo.

The Comeback + Typography Sample!

Nope, nope, I ain't here to make another set of false promises to stick to a blogging schedule or to write daily or to be really active. I'm here to say hi! And to apologize for yet another writing hiatus. I actually DID FINISH THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS TAG but had no internet connection during the holidays since we were way up in the North (Isabela, to be exact) and I was too ashamed to post them so late. Anyway, if you do want to see them, I would probably put them up here somewhere soon, but I'll let future me figure out how in the future.

Okay, so back to the main thing. I'm here to say that I'm still going to blog. But instead of establishing a strict schedule, I'll let myself decide when I want to write. I don't want to force myself to sit down and type (since all the things that I write at that moment turns to poo). So instead of treating blogging as a task, I'll treat it as a hobby. Not something that I HAVE to do, but something that I WANT to do (*claps for being so motivational*).

That's basically all I wanted to say, but I'm also gonna slip it in there that I'm taking typography more seriously now and actually started my pen collection a few weeks back to the beginning of 2015. Here's a little experiment I did with a 03 Sakura Micron Pigma and 0.7 Unipin;



It's a lyric from Check Yes, Juliet by We The Kings (the current song I CAN'T get out of my head). I'm planning on working with Zig pens pretty sure since brush pens look so fun! =D (((although I'm poor as dirt at the moment, sooo)))

I also found myself writing these short rambles about lotsa random things. It has become some kind of collection of short shitty one-shots. And of course, I'll be putting those up as well. Soon. Maybe. Probably, Yeah.

And before I forget, we have prom! Be not deceived though, I'm not exactly very keen to go, but it will be fun (or at least I hope so) and it's a great chance to bond with friends, so here's to a memorable one! =) Did a little thing..
That's all for now. Hear from ya soon!

Book Hauls + Book Lockets

I know, I know, this is an out of schedule post since it’s Thursday, but I wanted to share some great news!

First in line in the series of good news, after the long wait, The Fault in Our Stars Trailer is finally released! Check it out if you still haven’t by clicking the amazing fan art by Mandi Kempton!  If you have already watched it, share your thoughts in the comments below.


Also, during our English class a few hours ago, our English teacher announced our final class project for this school year; a class Yearbook! I was extremely excited since the project would require the use of two of my most favorite things in the world; writing and editing. Our teacher showed us a few example yearbooks made by the previous batches and they were amazing. I am really excited to be doing this with Krypton (my section).

And yes, this is my class. This is the first time, I think, that I posted a photo with my actual face in it. Hahahaha. :))

Speaking of writing, I’m working on more stories this year and I’m pretty happy about how all of the stories are going. These are the tentative covers I made for each (Note: None of the stories below are posted anywhere, but I hope I will put them up on Wattpad soon).

I am so sorry the covers I made are on my other laptop and I haven't transferred them to Dropbox yet. So for now, no pictures. :D Sorryyyy.

Oh and I’m doing a book haul this February! I don’t have an exact date yet, but I’ve been saving since December and have been craving more new books ever since 2014 rolled in. I will definitely be blogging about all the books I will buy in the near future. :)



And last, but definitely not the least, I found this cute little online shop called Tuesdays and Fridays that sells beautiful accessories. No, not just simple bracelets, necklaces, and rings, but book-inspired accessories! I made a quick collage of the photos I gathered from their Facebook Page you can visit by clicking on it. I’m planning to buy a lot from this store pretty soon since I’m still waiting for my new All Time Low, Pierce the Veil, and Sleeping with Sirens ballers to be delivered.



Note: I’m not really sure if the store is available to different countries other than the Philippines, you can inquire if you want. But, even if they are not selling worldwide, it’s still nice to look around the amazing trinkets around the shop.

Alright, that’s pretty much everything. I hope you guys are as excited as I am for what is to come these next fe months! See you soon! :)

Andrea
