Play and Cosplay

Learning new things is what makes life exciting. Doing random things is what makes life more enjoyable. And knowing how short life may be here for us, it is always best to maximize it with great and new things. And that is exactly what I did. I ventured into photography.

We often find ourselves afraid of doing new things. We like to dwell in our comfort zones and hold up to it long. Little did we know that because of such fear and apprehension, we are not doing ourselves a favor. We don't grow and even more we do not experience the exciting things life could possibly give us. We fear we might get hurt in the process, we fear we may not be incapable of doing it and the list goes on.

This holds true for me. For the longest time, I am reserved and close. I tend not to incorporate new things in my life since I do not want to fail and all the more I am afraid. For the longest time I have wanted to try photography. But it seems this was not the one for me. I have my camera and lens ready and browse through tutorials but still I was not able to apply it. All because of that fear. It seems I am not good in taking pictures. My images are dull compared to others. And my crave for photography is shelved out.

Then, an opportunity came. My friends were invited to cosplay at SM. This was the time when the Avengers are shown in cinemas. Then I told myself, why won't I try. Got my camera and my 50mm lens with me without the fear and apprehension and voila, it was one of the best afternoon of my life.

Here are some cosplay shots I took.









I know I still have a long way to go. But at least I am making the step. These was made more fun when you have crazy friends around.

A photoshoot afternoon would not be complete without my outfit shots taken by my boyfriend.

Manila Loot Part 2

In case you missed it, my family and I were in Manila last April 13-15 to have that much needed break. And of course when you are in Manila, it is best to shop at stores that cannot be found in CDO. Check out the first part of my loot here.

So here is the second and the last installment of my Manila loot that left me broke after. Oh well~

Silver metallic skirt from People are People

Shorts from Bayo at 20% off

Cute tops from Cache Cache

Top from Kamiseta

Dolphin from Blue Magic

Shoes from Aldo at 50% off

Shopping is definitely more fun especially if you get good deals such as the ones from Aldo and Bayo. No wonder Manila is one shopping haven for me because of the great stores and amazing discounts. Definitely I would be coming back for more.
