Because I wanted my nails to be ready for my Boracay trip tomorrow. Hihi. It’s perfect. I finally got my dream nail art, tribal pattern. Love it! I swear, I couldn’t stop smiling and staring at it when it was finally finished. Can’t wait to have this design on my nails again but with new colors. Hopefully next time they can do the more complicated design I love. Hihi. You girls should try it! Go to Cans and have your nails done like mine or any other designs you like. It’s worth the money, well that’s my opinion. ♥

I was so happy that it wasn’t as expensive as what I thought it would cost. Thank you Cans for my lovely nails. I’m so happy and I really really love. ♥ Yes, I’m that mababaw but aren’t they prettyyyyyy!!! #happycamper ;)

STUPEFY.

Agdsakhfasfhalf. That’s my explanation of this night. Haha. We were bored and what can two bored best friends do? Have their own mini photo shoot. Yes, we were that bored. Forgive us. ;)

☟ No faces, I love it. ☟

With a little bit of boredom, editing and camera experimentation… These are the results. Like it? I do. ▲

REUNION.

We’re finally back! Yes, we made it happen! A mini Hey Daydream reunion cast party! ♥ After the long wait, our plans actually pushed through! Wohoo, congratulations to all of us! Haha. I missed all of you guys and I wish we can make this happen again! Or even make it a regular thing! Right? Right? ☺

{L-R: Mike, Nisa, Erika, Vieo, Anya, me & Rez}

Chillin like a boss!

Foooooooood.

HAHAHA. Candid! ;)

Best highlights of the night would be:

1) Seeing all of them again (especially Vieo & Nisa. Yes you two. Haha! Uyy, special mention! :>)

2) “Would You Rathers” (HAHA. Alam niyo na yan! ;))

3) and… I just got to hang out with them again! FINALLY. ♥

That’s about it! Thanks for reading! And if any of the Hey Daydream cast is reading this, hello there weirdos (just like me). Love you guys! Miss you already and hope to see you real soon! ☺

SORRY FOR PARTY ROCKING.

I’ve been excited for this concert for the longest time… Since like… February. Hahaha. Actually, that excitement really started when I found out they were having a concert here. ;) I’ve been a big fan every since I heard the song “I’m in Miami Beach/Bitch”, whatever you prefer (haha); and I just fell in love with their latest album, ‘Sorry for Party Rocking’. All their songs there are just awesome! Super fun to dance and sing with! Yes, I do that in my room. Hihi. I’m sure you guys think I really am that weird. ;)

Tickets gallore! Thank you Mamu for these lovely tickets! ♥

ONE BIG MOTHER F*CKIN MANILA PARTY.

Kuya carrying this kid over his shoulders because he couldn’t see the concert! This kid is part of our Party Rock crew and he was having such a blast with just that glowstick but Kuya Champ decided to carry him since he really couldn’t see anything because he was too tiny behind the crowd. Haha!

“I am not a whore… But I like to do it.” HAHAHAHA. Love it!

Someone in the Party Rock crew celebrated his birthday during the concert! So cute! ♥

With MY Party Rock crew! ;)

The concert was just one big party! I loved every bit of it! Everyone was going crazy! There were drinks too, being served! The real Party Rock crew was drinking on stage, partying like there was no tomorrow! Damn, everyone seemed like they had so much! And… I really wanted to be friends with the Party Rock crew! They seem so cool to be friends with. ♥ Hopefully one day I get to meet all of them! ☺

DO YOU HAVE TO LET IT LINGER.

“You know I’m such a foooooooool for youuuuuuuu! You got me wrapped around your finger… Do you have t let it linger. Do you have to, do you have to. Do you have to let it linger.” I love this song and I couldn’t believe that the Cranberries was here in Manila! We all know that song and “Zombie” too! How can we not know those songs! Those songs are part of my childhood days! I would hear my older sister sing those songs a gazillion times, and the never ending plays in the radio back then! The concert just felt like a flashback to the 90’s and I loved it! ♥

Thanks for making this happen Karpos Multimedia & Pulp Magazine!

Showtime! ☺

☟ Love their background during the show! ▲

Dolores was such a rockstar! Love it!

PIONEER. 

{WARNING: Super photo heavy post up ahead!}

I have nothing else to say but… Life changing. Haha. They are f*ckin great. I’m not just saying this because I just want to say it but because, I really saw how great they are in person. They make an effort to attend to their fans, they even answered the silliest questions during their press con. After their concert, before they went inside their van, they still went to the fans and took some pictures with them and signed some autographs too! I mean, come on, that rarely happens right? And I was really happy to see that they really made an effort to show some love to their fans. Now I understand why their fans are super crazy about them, because they’re THAT great. Well, that’s my opinion only. ☺

I have no regrets waking up early just to go to their press con, get the chance to meet them and watch them perform live. NO REGRETS AT ALL. If you’re not a fan, I don’t know why. Maybe there’s something wrong with you. Hahaha! I’m kidding. ;) But I love them now, like I’m really a fan. :”> Thanks again Karpos Multimedia & Pulp Magazine for making this happen! You guys must know how great all of you are! :)

PS. I’m actually listening to their songs now while I’m doing this post. ♥

With my forever concert buddy! Johnny boy!

Front act: Itchyworms!

My new partners in crime during concerts! Hihi. ♥ 

{L-R: Colwin, me & Ferj}

It’s showtime! THE MAINE. ♥

{PS. This was actually their first pitstop for their asia concert tour!}

Oh Kennedy. ☺

Oh John. ♥

Oh Garrett. ☺ You one wild man!

Oh Jared! ☺

I swear, when they started and everyone was jumping and going crazy… I felt like there was an earthquake. Why? Because the floor felt like it was moving or maybe it really was moving. Haha :))

☟Loved the lights during the show! Look how pretty it was! ☟

Cute John! ☮♥✌♥✌☮

JUST BECAUSE. ♥

I was lucky enough to have had the chance to meet the band. YES, I met The Maine. One of the awesomest bands I’ve ever met! Actually before the press con, I didn’t know that much songs, I didn’t know who the band members were. I was just there to support my friend and their company for this concert. Everything changed when I got to see them perform live. And I must say, they were (forgive my language, but I must say it) f*ckin great!!! I swear, after that concert, I memorized most of their songs in most of their albums. Hahaha. Yes, I am now a fan! ;)

This is the first ever press con that I went to that had a buffet for the people there. Amazing! ☺

Press con time!

JOHN!!! ♥

Such handsome men! ;)

Cute smiles! ♥

A photo-up with the president of the Maine fan club here in Manila! 

{PS. The binder that John’s holding here in the picture is a gift from the Manila Maine fans! Cute!}

Ahhhhh! So I died… A little bit. Hahaha! And I got to hug them all. :> *butterflies in my tummy & dying out of happiness*

I actually miss those guys already! Please come back to Manila, the Maine. We miss you.

Oh also! I always do this, so I’ll make it my ‘thing’ after a post! Hihi. Time to say thanks! Wohoo! Haha! ;) I would like to thank KARPOS MULTIMEDIA for adopting me once again and bringing me to this press con and the concert too! I love you guys! Congratulations for the very successful concert and more power to you guys! ♥ Oh also, I would like to thank PULP MAGAZINE & ASTROPLUS! Great job you guys! ☺

Off to pick Kuya Chino & Ate Denise! ☺ Clouuuuuuds! #lovely

On the way to Loboc river! I requested for us to stop in the middle of nowhere and just take pictures! I found the spot super nice and I needed a picture there. Hihi. My family was game enough to do it, so here’s the product of our random pitstop:

While I was trying to take a picture… There was a motorcycle that kept on beeping so I would move. I was like (in my head): “HELLO. The road’s kinda big… You can fit.” HAHA. But I still ‘semi’ ran to the side anyway. :))

☟ Pretty right? ;)

This ishow crazy we can get. Hahaha! ;)

In Loboc!

LOBOC FLOATING RESTAURANT. A must place to go in Bohol! A MUST! 

I had so much fun in this restaurant! You’ll know what! Just scroll down! ;)

There was a pitstop during the trip! Super cute! My goodness! ♥

Lui Pio siblings! ♥

Children dancing, people singing and playing an instrument, everyone just enjoying the show!

Do you see the kids? Look at them! Looks like they’re really enjoying themselves!

Now, this is my family. ♥

Lui Pio girls. ;)

Anyway, this is only part 1 of Day 2! Wait for the video and part 2! Coming up next! ♥

ONE HORIZON SHOOT.

Remember my director friend? Claude? The one who directer the short film I starred in? If you don’t, check out my post about it, here, here & here! ;)

Anyway, he needed to shoot another commercial for work purposes and he needed actors for the commercial (duh, haha!). He asked me a favor, and told me that he was going to get me and my best friend, Erika for the commercial. Why not, right? It’s another opportunity anyway! ☺

We wanted to have a mini photo shoot first before we shot for the commercial. HAHA. They were setting up anyway! Might as well enjoy the location for a photo shoot, right? ;)

HAHAHA. That’s why we get along great! Erika can be goofy like this! :))

☟ I loved this shot I took. I don’t know why… Hmm, maybe because it’s just simple but at the same time, lovely. ♥

Me with my bestie! Hi EY! :>

Love these photos! Thanks EY! Nuks naman yang skillz! Hahaha! ;)

Director Claude! Follow him in twitter and get update with his works! ☺

One of our props for the shoot! A kite! I swear, it’s so hard to make it fly. Haha. But I successfully did it once! Woot woot! #proudofmyself! :))

PS. I really loved that tail of the kite we used for the shoot! It’s so fun to play with! Look at me, happy kid right thurr! ;)

{L-R: Claude, me, Erika & Martin}

That’s all! ☺

Oh before I forget, if you are reading this, Claude & Martin, thanks for getting me and Erika for your shoot! And Erika, here’s some of your photos! Good job! Learning from me huh. Haha. Kidding! ;)

Pasalubongs, Pasalubongs, Never Ending Pasalubongs! ♥

So my sister came back with these pasalubongs for me! BOOK IT! I was super happy that she bought me a lot of things. So much love from states, that’s how I felt. Hahaha! ;)

THANK YOU ATE FOR ALL THESE. It made me super happy! Especially the canvas (tribal pattern) bag from Forever 21, classic Vans & the STAR WARS, Limited Edition Moleskine notebook! Yes, I’m a dork like that. Out of all the gifts I got from my sister, that was the one that made me jump like an idiotic hyperactive kid. I’m not kidding. You should’ve seen me. :))

Pasalubongs from my sister:

1) Forever 21 Bag. (Yes, I’m in love with this flag and this country! ♥)

2) 2 Tops from Old Navy!

3) Black bag from Mossimo.

4) Make-up! Eyeliners and a make-up palette!

5) Bikini from Xhilaration, Swim. (I love this bikini! Perfect from my Boracay trip this coming Friday! ♥)

6) Tribal Pattern Bag from Forever 21. (I LOVE THIS BAG. It’s like my ultimate favorite bag. It’s just lovely. ♥)

{Whoops, I forgot to take a good picture of the bag! My bad! But you get how it looks like! :p}  

7) STAR WARS, Limited Edition notebook. Moleskine Legendary Notebooks. ♥♥♥

This is the best gift ever. EVER. I swear, I died when I got it. Haha. Now, I’m having this problem whether I should use it or not. :)) You know that feeling when you own something really nice and you don’t know whether you should open it and use it or not. Hahaha. That’s the problem I have now. :))

THE FORCE IS WITH ME. :”>

Behind the scenes! HAHA. Forgive our very messy & chaotic house! It’s always like that when my sister’s here! So much balik bayan boxes and luggage everywhere! :))

Cute mum! Hihi. ☺

I swear, I’m so lucky to have a sister like my sister! She loves me too much! Hihi. Thank you again Ate for all the pasalubongs! ♥

BEAUTIFUL BOHOL, DAY 2. {PART 2}

{WARNING: SUPER Picture Heavy post up ahead!}

I told you our itinerary was long! Haha. It couldn’t even fit in one post here! ;) Anyway, continuing our day 2, Bohol adventure! Where did we stop? Hmm, let’s check our itinerary again!

03/24/12 Bohol Adventure:

☑ Pick up Kuya Chino & Ate Denise in the airport.

☑ Loboc Restaurant for lunch!

☑ Chocolate Hills.

☑ Pass through the Man Made Forest.

☑ Tarsier Reserve.

☑ Xzootic.

☑ Bohol Bee Farm.

☑ Seaside (dampa) dinner with the whole fambam! ♥

☑ Seaside after dinner bonding. ☺

{PS. The ones in bold are the ones you should really go to when you go to Bohol. It’s a must!}

Oh yeah! We stop in the Loboc floating restaurant and our fun-filled videos. Haha! ;) Next pitstop was the… *drumroll please* Man made forest! Now, this lovely area was just beautiful. Though it felt like I was in a twilight scene, those trees were just lovely. I don’t know why but I’m very fond of this kind of scenery. Trees and the forest vibe… I really don’t know why but maybe it’s the hipster or treehugger in me! HAHA.

▲✌▲✌

Chocolate hills! ♥ Duh, this is a must! ;)

Tarsier Reserve! ⚆⚆

Best shot I got of the tarsier! :>

Look at me! I’m a tarsier!!! #natt :))

Xzootic! Humungous snakes, ostriches, asian leopards, monkeys, bear cat and moreeee!

Can you see it? It’s lunch time for the snake! Poor chicken.

Technically conquered one of my fears! #bookit! ;)

BOHOL, I MISS YOU. ☹

{WARNING: SUPER Picture Heavy post up ahead!}

I couldn’t believe that this was my last day in Bohol. Everything was so fast that the 4 days we stayed there weren’t enough. The whole family decided to just enjoy the beach, chill, bum, whatever you want to call it.

My cutie parents! ♥

Oh how I miss you already. ☹

♥♥♥ My second & third best shots of the entire Bohol trip! ♥♥♥

Clouds. Alam niyo na yan! Hahaha! ;)

Our ‘see you again soon, Bohol’ lunch!

♥ Unspeakable happiness. The Lui Pio fambam! ♥

My dad took these! I’m so proud of him! I love these photos of me! Hihi. :”)

I see the beach in my shades! ☀

CEBU, BOHOL, ANY PLACE YOU WANT.

{WARNING: SUPER Photo Heavy Post! Brace yourself!}

My family planned this trip ever since last year. We had to wait for my sister, Ate Cha and her husband, Kuya Glenn to come back first so that the entire family will be together for a ‘complete’ family vacation! It finally happened! We were complete for a real family vacation! It’s been awhile since we got to have a vacation like this. My sister transferred to States already and all of my siblings have been busy with work too; so we never got the chance to do this again until this day!

I was so happy that my sister was finally back, even just for a short while! I mean, it was an entire year before I got to see her again. I know it didn’t feel that long ago but I missed her so much.

Hello Ate Cha & Kuya Glenn! We missed you!

Up, up & away!

Because I love taking pictures of the sky & clouds. I just find them really beautiful to look at. ☺

TOUCH DOWN CEBU!

Since our flight was to Cebu, and we didn’t reach the first boat ride time to Bohol, we decided to enjoy one of Cebu’s finest delicacies… LECHON. Yes, LECHON. I repeat that, LECHON. CEBU LECHON. :> I just can’t stop repeating that because I am in love with lechon! It’s soooo good! ♥ We were in Cebu already, might as well enjoy their food! Right? ;)

I heard CnT Lechon was one of the best lechons in Cebu!

Off to Bohol! We rode the SuperCat ferry!

TOUCH DOWN BOHOL!

Kuya Chino wasn’t here yet, he went the next day! He had this event to go to first, so he just followed the next day! ☺

Alona beach, Panglao, Bohol. #PERFECTSUMMERGETAWAY.

The view from our hotel. #lovely ♥

First thing I ordered when I got to Bohol… Mango shake. Yumm!

Beaaaaaaaaaach! FINALLY.

One of my best shots in Bohol… Actually, I think this is my best shot during the entire Bohol trip! ♥

Clouds! I told you I love clouds! Just can’t get enough of taking pictures of it! ☁
