Updates...

Gas prices have gone down by 5 pesos this week, can you imagine that! Now the price per liter of Shell V Power is just P37.85! Hurrah! For my 500 pesos, I now get about 13.++ liters, compared to the 10.++ last week. What a blessing! And just in time for Christmas, too.

Now I know a lot of people are still not happy about this, thinking the gas companies could do better in bringing the rates down. Bahala sila. You won't hear me complaining. Basta ako, I'M GLAD AND THANKFUL. :)

I'm buying me a new camera this month. A Canon SX10 IS. Can't wait! I've been wanting to do some practice shots for the longest time. Nakakahiya kasi minsan with my simple digicam. Soon as I get my new gadget, I'm gonna shoot like there's no tomorrow. Hehehe. Hey, practice makes perfect, right?

My beau Alvin and I are a duo of novice photographers. We haven't added much to our site since our Bohol trip. Hopefully, we can share more photographs soon. Sana dumating na yung camera mo, Babe. :)

Now that I'm done with my French 2 course, I feel like I should start learning something new again. French 3 doesn't start until January. I was thinking of enrolling in a Web Designing course, or Graphic Design. I've always wanted to learn Photoshop, and I don't just mean knowing how to edit photos. I want to be able to create nice ads or artwork. I want to do something creative and productive. Any suggestions?

Wave 891 TVC Shoot

November 23, White Avenue in Tomas Morato.

We sacrificed one Sunday to finally shoot our TVC. After 48 years! Hehehe...

Best effort to look genuinely HipHop/R&B. But the one thing we did so effortlessly that day was laugh, drink, bond and have a BLAST!

The Wave 891 TVC will be launched next month. Watch out for it! More pics here.

Usapan ng magkasintahan...

I was going to buy me a kitten I haven't seen yet, and excitedly planned to call it Sirius Black, after my fave Harry Potter character. But when I saw the picture, he didn't look like a Sirius Black at all. I was crestfallen.

Anne to Alvin: (wailing) Honey, this kitten doesn't look like Sirius Black at all!
Alvin to Anne: (amused) Honey, Sirius Black is not a cat.

Onganaman.

:)

Then he calls me Baby Gurr... like before.

And I melt away.

Told you so!

How many times should you tell your partner you love her?

The answer?

Before someone else does.

I thought I'd told you...

Experiencing Bohol!

IMG_4474

Our Bohol trip finally pushed through, and despite a harrowing start (we missed our plane, rerouted to Cebu and took the ferry), we had a wonderful vacation.

Hon and I stayed at Bohol Beach Club. We hired a car and tour guide (courtesy of Mr. Gerry Lugod) and marveled at the lovely sights of the island. I finally saw a tarsier up close! (I only saw pictures of these furry creatures in History and Sibika books.)

And I got to see the famous Chocolate Hills!

We experienced almost everything there is to be seen, tried and tasted in Bohol. The floating restaurants along Loboc River, the old churches and museums, the Blood Compact Site, the famous Bohol Bee Farm with its organic palate pleasures, the sea with its powder-fine sand and starfish treasures! Saya!

If, like me and my beau, you wish to escape from the stresses of the city, find some peace and quiet, and the perfect shots for the photographer in you, then Bohol is one of the most perfect destinations.

Balik sa Bohol, balik!
