Karla hates it when people spell her name with a C. She is 21 and has a degree in BS Architecture. She still obsesses over ribbon bows, Hello Kitty and pink (but slighty leans towards black). One of her many addictions is twirling her hair. She dreams of designing a skyscraper someday. She is absolutely boss and loves nothing but the best.♥

April

Loving the shoes I got this month!

First number is this pair that I got online. Total cost including shipping fee is less than P1000 :) I used the money that I got from items (bags/shoes that I've never/barely used) I sold online.


Second pair this month is the pointed green flats! I saw them at the mall but did not purchase at first. When I got home, I realized I liked it so much I had to buy them! Good thing I didn't buy them earlier because when I came back after a week, they're on sale! I saved P600!! Got them for ONLY P299 ($6-$7) How awesome is that!



The third ones, I spent on. I've been looking for black slip-on shoes for walking and these are just perfect. And they were also on sale! Saved 15% :D Behold, le classic black sequin Toms. They have half sizes which is amazing for me because my feet are thin (all of me are thin actually) so I'm a half size smaller than my actual shoe size. These fit me really nice.

 


To whom it may concern, I'm moving on and it starts right now.

My close friends and family know that I like to dress up a lot. And today I had nothing to do so I decided to guess what.. :| dress up! I had the guts to post this here because I know nobody reads this. I do this a lot actually, but I just never posted. I just stare on it at the camera to see if the outfit goes together. Now that I've started on this, I might post outfit pics often.

I'm so glad I finally cut my hair! The last time I had short hair was about 10 years ago and it was even longer than this. It's so easy to wear anything with short hair. I don't need to style it!



What I'm wearing in this picture are a pair of shorts I just got done a while ago. Originally they were flare pants with a bad color. (They were in back in grade school! And yes I didn't gain much weight :|) So what I did was I cut it to become shorts, bleached it, sewed in some pearls and folded the ends and sewed it.

Also, I'm wearing the new shoes I bought online!


It's probably also why I decided to shoot today - because I got new shoes and I wanted to see if it works with different outfits. This time I'm pairing it with pants and an oversized shirt.



And it works with a short dress too! Great for summer! This dress only cost me P200+ ($4 to $5). When I saw it in the store, it had a black pearl necklace attached to it and I thought it was tacky. But I liked the print so much so I decided that I was going to rip the pearls. I made the pearls to a bracelet instead! I really love customizing / editting / recycling or DIY-ing things :D



I hope nobody puked. Haha til the next one!

My Precious

Why I'm doing this: 1) Got really really bored. 2) Haven't blogged in a long time. 3) Wanted to see "my precious" altogether. 4) So much spare time while waiting for data recovery (my external hard drive caught a huge virus >:( )

Didn't have the interest to take photos of bracelets/bangles and earrings. Maybe next time :)

Here is my little collection :)


Rings



Owl necklaces (never noticed we had so much owl necklaces!)


Long gold necklaces


Long silver necklaces


Long multi-color necklaces



Long black and white necklaces


Gold necklaces


Silver necklaces


Multi-color necklaces


Black and white necklaces (the bottom one is actually a detachable collar)


Post-processing done in Photoshop and Photobucket.com

To whom it may concern

The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
To be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity

I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you
Like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry

The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending
Do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

Like the little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to hold yours too
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity

1. I thought putting something out in the open was going to make me feel better. No, I feel a lot worse. I think about it more, and I get hurt more. I wish I could just erase this from my mind.. and from my sleeping mind. (metaphor)

2. On another note, I've been doing well in my "No Shopping" month. I hope I survive until April.

3. Yesterday, after a long time, I had to park again outside the school grounds because the car I was using had no school sticker. I hated parking outside because a) it's parallel parking, b) it's less safe, there have been stolen mags and broken glasses. But I did and all went wall until I went to go home. An idiot, a big idiot, left his car beside mine. If the slot behind me wasn't clear, I had no choice but to wait for the idiot. However, the curb on the other side was too high and there was a car next to the empty slot. So yes I had to drive perfectly. Finally after several takes, I was able to get out! Thank you to a driver who assisted me, he was so helpful and smart! And thank you to the group of CTHM girls who supported me while I get out from the most stressful slot ever. We didn't know each other but it was like we were friends.

4. Today, I had to go to a faraway land to meet up with someone who's interested with the bag I was selling online. At first I was pissed because it was so far from my meeting radius. I had to print a map. I had to cancel on the first meeting cause I couldnt find the place. Also, when I got there I found out I had to pay P40 for the parking. So I asked the buyer thru text to pay P20 more without hesitations. But when I met the buyer, everything changed. He was a guy. And he was going to give the bag to his wife! And when I mentioned the P20, he paid extra P100 instead! So yeah I was really happy hahahaha. But I was really amazed as well that there are still sweet husbands out there! <3
