BOOK BOUND - LITERALLY

This would be awkward but, Hi! I have been missing from blogspot for so long while here I thought I was going to be a loyalist to my dead-serious blog. Want to see where I share other things like Cats, Sex, and everything else? Go here. (Nice sidetrack) but hence, Here I am once again. Claiming all godly things to write something that makes sense and do sense.


First and foremost, I moved. Yes, I am no longer in the Philippines but I am now a official California Girl [insert song and awkwardly end]. It has been about 7-8 months that I stayed here. If I tell you it pretty easy here, I'd be obviously lying. Settling in was a bitch and so is finding a job. (And I won't talk about it because it'd be only sidetracked to my family issues). I have been doing different kinds of things from then on. I do not have school, so I literally have zero friends that isn't related to me in any way. And you all know that one of my hobbies is reading a book, and boy did that thing grew into a magnitude!


It all started with Goodreads, blame it sure but I wouldn't because it's particularly my life. If you have a lot of free time in your hands, it's in no way pretty and awesome. If you are like me, you'd be bored in the next 5 minutes. In the first few months, we didn't have a laptop or a internet in the apartment. Boy that was a killer. We spent our free time going to malls and such, then I saw the lovely haven of the Dollar Book Store. Jesus Christ, I felt like I was saved. I was quite a loyalist to Thriller, Suspense and Mystery novels: So I ended up buying a lot of John Grisham, Lisa Scottline, Heather Graham and many more. My reading habit from then on was in level 5. I had books to read between hours but it wasn't eating me ... yet.


After a couple, 3-4, months: We got a laptop! It was a hell party in the cramp apartment house and no later than 2 days we got a internet connection. OK, got the laptop and the internet. And what is a girl to do? Facebook? Sure, I'd be staring at that page for a full 10 minutes and I'm done. Tumblr? Sure, it ate a lot of my time back in high school and some time of my college years but not that much anymore. The laptop was there and it still seemed I didn't have anything to do. I downloaded games (L4D, Half Life, FATE, Sims 3, etc.) and still it gets pretty dull.


Let's talk about then how I started this BOOK BOUND craze. Everyone is particular going crazy about the *drumroll* Hunger Games. Yeah? yeah? You know I'm right. Dystopian books doesn't exist in my vocabulary then and I decided to try reading ... I discovered Goodreads in the middle of the craze for book readers and it lead me to ... 271 books ... with 91 to-read. It's pretty shruggable (Lol on the term) but I always and always torture, if not killing, myself into reading 10 books a week. Where the hell do I get those kind of numbers and books to read? Goodreads. I am now one reading machine. No kidding.


I always find the time to read from 8 am to maybe 4 pm with breaks in between and internet thrown in there, and my personal time of 8 pm to 12 am. No wonder I finish books a day and I cannot seem to stop now. I even made a goddamn schedule on this things! "Schedule", can you believe it? I can, that's for sure. I always have books 'on-the-ready' to be read and they keep compiling until I get a total of 10 or lesser to finish in a week. Sure it didn't start like that right away, but if you're thinking I spent a day here in California without reading a book since last 4 moths? You be kidding. I always, always, have something to read.


... Do you feel awkward yet? No? I bet it isn't that much of a creepy habit, I mean ... Psh! It's just books! With a lot of sexy males to drool over and sex scenes to imagine and .. and .. things to fantasize.
... Until next time!

Faye is fashion risk taker?

Okay. I may have talked a lot about life, problems, issues, opinions on serious matter, et cetera. But I think Fashion is a serious matter too. Only the risk takers makes a statement, word on word with the beauty of every lining, every color, every mix and match. It tells a story, a beginning or a ending. Before I'd go further in this discussion lol. I would want to tell you a trivia about me.

The suppose trivia: Before ever becoming a third year serious-in-graduating IT student, I have a lot of courses in mind. Art has been always a part of my heart, my inspirations, and many more. Even it means literary, modern, et cetera. Here's some list that I wanted to take:
  1. Fashion Designer
  2. Interior Designer
  3. Fine Arts
  4. Culinary Arts
  5. Mass Communication
  6. Criminology (To go CSI or something)
  7. HRM (Especially in bar-tendering)
  8. Film Director
And I actually think there is more. But I only remember the other from time to time.

Back to my discussion, I am a frustrated girl who wants to wear clothes that she actually thought about. And I tell you pretty make cute outfits in my mind, if I'm going to count them all maybe I have made 5 years all-seasoned collections (Also stereotype ones). But none alas, maybe 2 to 5 outfits have only came true. So for a girl like me? I throw my frustrations in Polyvore & Looklet.

Some of my work:

Note: Made the set, and also added the design so that it will look like from a magazine

I even have clothes for this kind of event, this kind of day, Oh! and mostly it's go-to-school-so-unique-but-still-on-the-school-code designs. (Excuse me for the next bias comments but this is my blog so..) Aren't I good enough? I can actually be like one of those in magazine editors, et cetera.

Just now I need a fucking fairy to grant my fashion wishes.

So what really changed?

I bet you don't know what I am doing know, but you know what I have shared. Somewhat you know I have a lot of issues, it's like I'm going menopausal, but the thing is it's just like still growing. I do not know what the deal is, and I am trying to figure out. But let me tell you, something really changed.

Let's say; Mom enters, and start shitting about you always fed up in the internet. If I was still the immature she-doesn't-act-that-she-doesn't-know girl? I could've just shut up and that would be my life. But reality came (Oh by the way, I am not saying you'll be like me, but somewhat in the same page) and I began to question. So what If I am fed up with the internet, and why do I have no right? I study, do the chores. What else do you want? At least I am not making havoc in some place (i.e. in bed) or playing bitch with snotty friends down at the Starbucks that we have to drive about one city just to get there because it's where the cool kids are.

Can't they see, I have been more of a real and acceptable person than the one trying hard getting a life? I make my life, I do not have to fit with anyone to gain it. Tho it may not be obvious, I am proud of myself. Sometimes my life is hard because I try not to be beat down, but when life does. I just do my best to get the fuck back up and say, "Hey that's life, right? You only live once and mistakes are forever going to be burden.At least we die to forget it."

Sharing this to many kids out there that is certain following some quo, please don't. Been there, I laugh about it now. But we all go through it right? That's what I love about life, the irony.

It's a School Code

It's a School Code
It's a School Code by killhailmary featuring a crepe skirt

Sometime I actually think If I become rich enough to build a school, I will. But of course, my frustration on having to wear "not-so-cool" uniform inspired me to do this uniform for my so-called school. I know I would die to enter a school with cute uniforms like this tho.
