Day 07 - A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you.

i love that yeah yeah yeah's song, but the point really lies in today's challenge. the picture is not to point out that iphoto has had the most impact on my life but rather the albums within its contents. all the people, objects, words and thoughts found in my albums have played such a large part in formulating who i am today. i really couldn't choose just one person, or one item, or even one memory. they are glued together to create my worldview, my likes, my dislikes, what i am proud of, what i'm not. the people who i have known since birth, to the ones who i just met a few months ago. they all in their small yet significant way have impacted me, to collectively be the biggest impact. some for the better, some for the worse. but irrespective of the impact its been life-changing. they all somewhat orchestrate my being. they somewhat, in their disorientated way, create harmony. life.

love,

Day 06- A photo of you from 2007

this feels like a lifetime ago. i look so young... actually i still quite look the same haha. this photo was taken up on a ferris wheel at a christmas carnival in the philippines. this was my first vacation without my parents and to date the best yet. independent travel is simply glorious. this was near sm mall of asia and was taken with my two cousins lora and bianca ledesma. i miss them. we did get up to so much fun. i do hope to repeat this sometime.

love,

thought #125- two thousand

Day 05- A website

i absolutely adore this website. i guess there were a million i could possible choose from but i find boredom is somewhat stalled when im on here. it has everything under the sun. ive always wanted to explore the city with two thousand as my guide. i guess once i get a job and a boyfriend it can all become a reality... a job at the very least haha.

love,

ps. www.twothousand.com.au, plan your next escape/date with this. i dare you.

thought #124- wedding anniversaries

Day 04- A photo you took

i actually didn't take this photo today. it was actually last tuesday. nevertheless, i personally believe, it's an important photo. apart from the fact that it magnifies that physical skews of my old fart parents and their penchant for growing sideways over the years and losing the visual gusto that they might have once possessed, the fact that they can stand next to each other nineteen years after saying "i do" still brings me to a  place of confident awe. i mean they love to beat the shit out of each other verbally, they argue, they tease, they complain in bed, they snuggle (puke), they amuse each other and despite their flaws they can wake up next to each other and repeat the quotidian routine of life simply because they love each other.

they don't say it often. they don't even show it very well. but the evidence that they are still together in a world where everything regarding tomorrow is an uncertain relationship, assures me that they still do love each other. i hope to replicate my folks one day (not physically for the love of God haha), but relationally definitely. i want to find a man that can annoy the shit out of me and yet still want no one else to spoon each night. someone who will see my beauty underneath all that weight gain and white hair. someone who will stand by me even after the infatuation phase is over. someone worth celebrating a wedding anniversary with. so i guess i didn't just take a photo of my folks. nor did i take a photo commemorating a celebratory moment. i infact took a photo of history. an evidence that the world still knows what love is.

love.

thought# 123- mozart and the whale

is the most loveliest movie ever. its utterly captivating and i should of definitely have seen it while doing my extension 2 piece but nevertheless im glad to have seen it. anyway on with the challenge!

Day 03- What you did today

what i did today. well i don't believe i picked a very great day to represent the eventful details of my life but ill try. sunday 4th july. i awoke at 10am and snoozed for at least ten minutes before actually getting out of bed. after a quick shower, i went to church. had church then went to castle hill. munched on my favourite salad at sumo salad (chicken leafy), went to myer and purchased a dress and then went home. i watched mozart and the whale, had dinner in between and then began watching donnie darko. i fell asleep half way through... ill finish it off tomorrow. began watching the hangover, which was fucking hilarious. i have a penchant for ridiculous guy movies such as pineapple express so i actually enjoyed the hangover. the only condition is that i have to be in the mood haha. after i returned to indulge in my regular lame facebook stalking and msn chatters with various insomniacs such as myself. so that was really my day... great, laid back, not really eventful at all haha. 

love,

ps. though it was on saturday this cake looked absolutely delish. too bad i couldnt see if it was really red inside haha

thought #122- two

before i continue to the purpose of this entry, i must quickly recount on my lovely friday evening. despite the unanticipated and unexpectedness of how my night was supposed to turn out, i found myself enjoying every bit of it. despite the rip off which was unifest, i surprisingly had fun at flow and my intoxicated state probably cancelled out the fact that i was sandwiched between a gazzillion asians as if i had never left the west haha. random friends i hadn't seen in ages, familiar friends i had seen before and new friends who were cute and swoonworthy made the night enjoyable. plus the nightride really wasnt that bad. must definitely have a repeat yes? anywho on the with the challenge.

Day 02 - The meaning behind your Tumblr name (in this case blogspot name)
the name of my blogspot as you know is "croire" which essentially means believe in french. there were a few reasons as to why i chose it. firstly because i love the french language and the word croire sounded quite pretty verbally and typed. second, i guess i just like the verb believe. its something we fail to do often or fail to choose what to in some things. i guess life is riddled and founded upon the very notion of belief. its true when they say "well you got to believe in something" what exactly is what we spend our whole lives finding out. third, i guess it explains everything i write here. my thoughts, my opinions, my heartbreak, my triumphs and revelations. you can choose to believe it or go the other way round. i find myself in a tug of war all the time about who i am and i guess it forces me to come to a precipice each and everytime- to believe or not to believe.

love

thought #121- me, myself and i
