Clouds Over Horizon

Beyond nature exists the panoramic clouds. I know other people took those expressive clouds for granted. But for those who appreciates little things, like me, they dug up the deepest side of it as if everything what the eyes can capture has its own unique thoughts.

I have here different photo shoots of clouds beneath the skies on different horizons and sides.

Sunset. I took it also before our math night class but on the other side of the horizon.

Clouds, as what I've said, are expressive in their own ways. If you'll notice how they are formed you'll truly be amazed of what it meant to express. Then you'll realize how magnificent the taken for granted thing by others.

My point here is don't take things for granted. Appreciate and give importance not only to things you needed but also to those simple silent one.

Gifts Last 2008

I know every individual, either rich or poor, received gifts from the family, friends and relatives. The gifts may also came from a classmate on a Christmas Party. It might also came from someone who's special to you. But take note, the gifts I'm referring to is not just the material things but also those came from someone's deepest heart, the abstract. This could be love and respect that may be enough to show how sincere the heart is.

No matter where the gifts came from and what the gifts are, we should remind ourselves that each has an embarked value to be cherished and to be thanked. To all who received gifts, be thankful because it's just an implication that there people loving and caring for you.

Like you, I also received gifts from people who painted colors to my life. For now, I'll show you the photos I captured the other day which are material gifts I had on the year 2008. Take a shot.

Each figurine has a pair of wings which signifies that they are "angels". Maybe they'd given me that kind because I was named Angel.(Except the lady in lavander because she's from my precious cake.)

From the bottom of my hypothalamus, have a prosperous year of the ox!

The Girl Who Turned Eighteen

Last July 15, 2008 was the turning point of the girl into a lady. It was one of the most significant event in her life that she couldn't erase. She's so lucky to be able to survive on her eighteen years of existence in this panoramic world. She had been from ups and downs and so with from twists and turns. From everything she had been through in life, she was able to identify the right one from wrong. And all the things she had encountered were all her sources to move on to the incoming future.

She was just once a facile little girl who's trying to cherish every moment in her day. She easily laugh on the corniest joke and she even smile when people seem to scream on feet. She had met many faces from the day she was labored from her mom's tummy. Despite from her family's figures, she had also met lot of props in her story from kindergarten until she attended on college.

Life for her is just simple. For her, just be yourself and everything would flow fine. Just as standing to the front of the crowd is not easy for her. Yet she could able to stand with all her confidence by just trusting to herself and not pretending to be somebody else because she knew that she's unique in her own simple way.

Her life is so lovely, isn't it? Oh gosh! I think I forgot to mention her name. Ladies and gentlemen, the girl who turned to a lady, Miss Angel Mosqueza Ytac. And crap, it was difficult to recall everything about me before.

Anyway, let me share some photos during my debut last July 19, 08. I celebrated it on that day because it was saturday so that all my former classmates way back from high school can attend and so with my bountiful treasured friends. Here are the modified photos:

Please leave some comments and it would be highly appreciated. Thanks for visiting!

My Lolo's Birthday

Oh! It's the 29th of December and it's my Lolo's Birthday. He was already 78 years of age I think. I'm not sure with it. Anyway the important is I know it's his birthday. *haha! bad grandchild*. As to continue, we were invited, of course. I met my cousins and other relatives. We had our chit-chat and later on we grab for our evening's food. Unfortunately, in the middle of the celebration everything turned dark. Damn! Loss of current again. Too bad for wrong time. But it also gave me benefit because I was able to captured photos which was great on my eye's lens. I got two photos on it.

A candle placed outside the house. It really catched my attentiont that time. So I immediately grabbed for my pink digi cam.

My little cousin's toy. It looks cute because it twinkle like a star and has attractive colors.

The current loss didn't last. After couple of minutes, there was light again. We continued the occasion with laughters. Happy Birthday Tatay! *We used to call him tatay instead of lolo*

I really like my captures here. So, I hope you too like my shots. =]

First Homemade Header

I didn't noticed the time that it was already five in the morning. I had spent my attention on this header graphic design for my obsessed blog. OhMahGod! I can hear our neighborhood's radio singing which means they are already awake. And me, making this one last post for now, is still awake with my eyes wide open. Actually I'm not yet sleepy but I have to because I'll be having a visitor later.

Anyways. Here's my first ever homemade header for my one and only obsessed blog. duh!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

As you can see, I already applied it on my header. And there's still an existing problem that I can't solve. I've been through many trials and errors yet I'm still not successful. How dare ...! Will somebody help me? Just notify me if you're up to. Tnx! I'll truly appreciate it.

Logo Design

For me to expose my capability in the field of logo design, I accidentally joined a logo design contest last week. It was on-the-spot logo making held at school. But because of lack of time, the deadline for the logo design had been extended. It now due before the midnight of January 3, 2009.

There were two logos that were opened for design: (a) Chicco de Caffe - is the brand of an authentic Italian Cafe which will be located along Roxas Avenue, Davao City. Chicco means bean; (b) Kreios - is a holding company of the coffee shop business. The term means leader, master and ruler.

I made two logos for Chicco de Caffe. Here's my design.

Christmas Party Escapade

Wednesday, Dec. 17, 2008.

We, the Z2 people, celebrated our Christmas Party in a very simple yet in a fun way. There was no exchange of gifts due to financial issues*
haha*. The important for us were not gifts but yummy chunks!*wee~* Even though we did't have gifts yet we had food delights such as brownies, cakes, siopao, fruit salad, etc. Everything was really delicious that it made our tummy so full and then uttered some burps. *burp!*

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Anyways. Couples of my classmates who were used to be my friends in college invited me to go with them at the Mall and have our sort of pictorials at Lito Sy Studio. I went with them after the mini party and proceeded at the said studio. The studio was just one of the stolls at Gaisano Mall. It was very formal and elegant in nature. Inside, there were great photographs hanged on the walls and it really amazed me how beautiful it was.


After choosing a best layout for us, we fixed ourselves to look representable in front of the lens. It took us about dozens of minutes in making our faces and gestures pleasing to our own eyes. Finally, we agreed to start the sort of pictorial. The photographer with his cam took lot of photos. in profession. First we did formal postures then suddenly turned to wacky.
We did numerous of poses. The image below is one of them.*I modified it to make it livelier =]*

Our names were arranged according to our positions

My Chuck

I wanna share my pair of converse shoes. My generous mom bought me this thing. I forgot when was the time she bought this for me. Actually I was with her and I'm the one who chose it,of course.

I don't have nothing to utter right now. I just want to share my pair of shoes. That's all folks!

Anyways.
Obviously, I edited the photo above. I used the manga pages as its background. Others are just the product of things I learned in photo editing. So how's my talent for it? Do I seem to be a pro? hahah! Just kidding!

Uncertained Clouds

It was Monday afternoon when I took a glimpse onto the sky. I was fascinated the way the clouds formed covering the monotonous sky. So I hurriedly grabbed for my pink digital cam and let its lens exposed towards the image.

The two photos below were being adjusted in terms of its level adjustments to make it more contrasting. I used photoshop cs2 in doing so.

The captured photos portray something uncertain to the eyes which caused me to name this post as "Uncertained Clouds".

It Has Been A Long Day [Part II]

yThe continuation.....

It was one o'clock in the afternoon, when I finally arrived at my beloved hometown. I took off from the bus beside the Phoenix gasoline station and headed to the numerous yellow multicabs in the front of KCC Mall. From that point I was able to reach my home which I missed so much.

At home, I met my grandmother alone at the house. My mother that time was out of sight because she was attending a kriska session on the neighborhood. But later on she arrived and we finally met each other after a week. I blessed to her and then we exchanged kisses on each others cheeks. (We used to it already since then)

I took some rest for almost three hours at home; surfing the net and updating my accounts on several sites. After those surfing and updating, I asked permission to my mom that I will be going to the city to meet my special someone and my loved friends. She agreed and then I bid goodbyes to her to grandma.

At the mall, I met with Ian(my ss).We watched the movie Bolt, a walt disney pictures by John Travolta and Miley Cyrus. It was fully awesome because of its 3D-animation. The movie was fabulous and it would really fits to children and grown-ups as well as to families. The movie was all about
love, loyalty, trust to one's self and most of all about the value of friendship.

Anyways, let me go back to the story. After watching the movie, we went to the department store and there we met one of our former classmates. We talked for awhile and then separated ways. We moved out from the mall and we bid farewell to each other. We actually celebrated our eight monthsary just in a simple way but it was already the best for us.

To continue..
Ian went home while me, I went to Dunkin Doughnut branch at the Pioneer to meet my treasured friends, the Apocalypse. I'm so glad to see them again and it fully filled my heart with happiness. There's nothing comparable whenever I hang out with them.(It really felt good to meet your special someone and later on your friends. Right?)

Instead of composing notes to describe the happenings during that night, it would be best to show the photos we captured and I will just add some captions to it.

After eating for awhile, we bid goodbyes to each other with 'beso-beso'. Farewell will always be.
Still, Apocalypse is a never-ending story. So ironic, isn't it?

Fun-filled night!
