Smurfette

OH SO CUTE!
How cute is this Smurfette dress. So, so dainty! 
The quirky singer arrived at the premiere of The Smurfs movie in New York wearing a cute white dress emblazoned with a picture of her character, Smurfette, in sparkling sequins on the front.







I really love Katy Perry's style. She really knows how carry almost everything ang reinvent herself every time.
How I wish this can be bought anywhere. I really love to have one! Oh my gosh! 
The skirt line is soo flattering as well, don't you think?

Adobe Illustrator Geeks

It is really my frustration not having an advanced knowledge on Adobe Illustrator. I know this program does a lot things and it is intended for graphics. I'm a graphic artist and yet I'm only adept with Adobe Photoshop. I have been married with Photoshop for more than 8 years now and it is the only program I'm so used to. I never got a chance to practice and self study other programs 'cos time never permitted me to.


Since start of 2k, it has been a fad in graphic designs the pop art, colorful and funky styles and moreso on what they call "vector". Aaaargh, until now I haven't learned the right way to do it. I know this can be easily done in Adobe Illustrator. So, now as I was killing time here in my office area I am so happy to came across this site which calls Vector Diary.  It is like Adobe for Dummies but only titled as Adobe Illustrator for Geeks, which actually teaches the step by step of Illustrator PLUS it has bonus tips and secrets to other graphic styles. Now, I'm on my Day 3 or Lesson 3. I'll continue reading now. Hope you find this helpful and enjoy!

Super 8 is not that Super

I just watched the press screening of Super 8 last Wednesday, June 8 at Glorietta 4 Cinema 3 by UIP. Wooo...I was so excited to see that movie because its teaser trailer made me curious with its special effects. And of course not to mention it is produced by Steven Spielberg.

So, when I received an invite from them I immediately have two tickets reserved for him and me. Good thing the screening is only in Glorietta, it's near home.

Wow, it was raining cats and dogs that day but we still pushed through. Hihihi...I love the feeling of him holding my hand while he leads the way. =) Kahit naka-heels ako, OK lang. We thought we're not gonna make it to the cocktails. Sarap ng food. Sponsored by Fish & co. I love most is their Fish Fillet. Bitin ang isang plate! Plus I wasn't able to enjoy it much since we hurriedly finished it, mag start na kasi ng screening. We found empty seats near front and later we found out that it's ok to bring the food inside! Leche! Buti na lang he offered to get another plate. Ok talaga kapag masiba din ang kasama mo. Hahaha...

Ok now, as for the movie. Didn't like it really. I thought the movie is something deep, something mysterious and something will keep you in awe. Unfortunately it's not. The only good thing about it are the funny parts done by the main characters which is a group of children. By the way, the movie is also set not during the present time. Actually I didn't feel that it's produced by Steven Spielberg himself. I was disappointed. Good thing I've watched it for free.

I still do recommend X-Men First Class and Hangover II. Also, the latest I've seen which is last Friday is Insidous. The latter is scary visually and not only audibly. Plus, it will surely leave some wild imagination in your mind when you sleep or even when you wake up in the middle of the night. See it! I recommend it!

Space-Saving Rooms

* until now I haven't thought of any good description about myself. Good luck to me. Hahaha..I've carried it until in my sleep.

Anyhow, I just came across with this article in yahoo last few weeks ago. I easily got fascinated. It is my dream to have a good and well-designed room of my own. But honestly, I am more fascinated with baby rooms. Too bad I was not able to apply and have one for my little girl 'cos I don't have budget, of course, that would be the main concern of everyone for everything.

So, here there are----magical nooks and niches for secret kids' rooms

 Reading Nook

Bunk Bed Cubbies
Each of these bunk bed cubbies in a shared kids’ room feature a curtain that can be drawn for privacy.

*This reminds me of the trailer houses' beds. It really saves a lot space compared with the 2 separate beds for a room. I think like these for me and Zoe. Hehehe. But wait, how can you climb on the upper bunk? I can't see a ladder or something.


 Girls' Nook
The colorful nook in this girl’s bedroom offers a cozy escape.

*Ooooh...I fancy this. In a house, if ever I'm gonna be asked which room I want to occupy, I'll pick the attic part. I really fancy that part which you can sit beside the window where you can write or read while gazing at the stars or watching every raindrops fall on the window. And this nook resembles the room I like. =)


 Hidden Nook
An armoire serves as the entrance to this C.S. Lewis-inspired hidden nook.

*This reminds me of Chronicles of Narnia. I wonder how big is the inside part of it. Kinda scary too, it appears like a big fireplace to me that eats up little children....
 

 Wide Reading Nook
A wide bottom shelf creates a perfect little reading nook in this space.

*Hahaha...I can fit in there.
 Trundle Nook

*This is nice. =)

 
 Space-Saving Nook
This child’s bedroom makes the most of difficult space.


There are still 3 more hidden nooks found in this site:

MARK THIS DATE!

Just testing. 
This my first post here in my newly-created blog. I'm still not contented with my blog name. I've gotta think of my own, something unique. I've tried a while ago but sheeesh all that I entered are already taken. So, now I'm running out of names. I haven't customized my page as well. I still have to navigate every setting and function of this site. 

I know I've done one before3-4 years ago, perhaps? I just got tired to write so I was not able to continue it anymore. I already forgotten my name too. But now, with this, I'll try to continue as long as I can. Hahahaha...Hopefully!
It is indeed a good thing that we keep track of everything that we do, we go etc. by having a blog or some sorta. This is my frustration - WRITING. I can be talkative and talk and talk, blah and blah but in writing my whole thought usually get lost. I have no consistency...sheesh.

For now, please bear with me 'cos I'm still new here and perhaps in writing too. 

My assignment is to write a good description/profile about me and a good blogspot name.
