Hiatus

What's new? Woah. Talk about busy life of college. (If someone goes to a design school and says she/he's busy, trust them. Seriously)

I've started college in LaSalle majoring in fashion design and let's just say I haven't got an abundance of free time, which, I was expecting, and this is exactly what I want, so I can't complain. The beginning of college didn't go as smooth as I wanted, I always feel like I'm not doing good enough. But shit happens, and if you get knocked down, all you gotta do is get your ass back up, right? Anyways, not gonna talk about my feelings. So... things have been pretty hectic this past month. I completely forgot about this blog and haven't updated since... As long as I can remember. But in addition to the not-so-fabulous-life of a fashion student, there are exciting things that happened and one thing that'll probably be one of the highlights of my life.

1. I stayed in Vancouver for a month for homestay. It was an amazing, priceless, and even emotional experience. I consider this as a real experience in my life. Because this is the first time that I went abroad by myself. By myself I mean going from airport to another airport, being on the plane by myself. It was an interesting experience because I felt somewhat more mature. Haha!

I'm not gonna go into in-depth-details about my whole trip. I'm just gonna put some pictures.

Pre-Pride Parade madness. How crowded is this place?

Aloha, my house mate

At Vancouver Aquarium. Oh and this is Yurina from Japan. I knew her from the orientation day in school. 

Vancouver Aquarium. Yeah. Only those two pictures. There's way too many...

At Canada Place with Yurina And my friend from Brazil, Tajide.

Lynn Canyon Park with my Korean peeps

The oh-so-famous donuts of Deep Cove

Oh hey there's me at Deep Cove Harbour

Calamari by the dock and good company @ Granville Island

I came to Vancouver to eat chewy junior... not.. Hahaha!

Oh just a bunch of my school mates

The time my school mates and I went to Victoria + The Butchart Gardens

Last day of school with my classmates. This was a really sad day. I didn't want to leave :(

Post-graduation stroll + gigantic pho + photobooth with my sweetest Korean peeps. They're seriously the best.

OK OK OK... These 2 pictures go together. On my last day of school, my teacher gave me this card. I read it and I seriously was sobbing while reading it. The second picture is my post-crying face. HAHA! Whut? That was pretty damn emotional okay.

(Oh and by the way, this is my Korean bestie Moonbin. She's the cutest)

I don't know. Moonbin took this picture of me and I kinda really dig it. LoL

This was my very last day in Vancouver at English Bay with Hayley and Helen. Was really bummed out that I had to leave.

2. I have found my spirit animal; Blackbear

Not a fan of R&B but his music has gotten me head over heels. I was listening to this album the whole time I was in Vancouver. Just.. Listen. And you're welcome. 

3. I changed my hair color to hot pink which I never really thought of doing. Ever since I got my hair dyed, I always thought dark blue was the only color that would fit me, and that was the only color I was gonna go for. But my hair has been going through to really peculiarly kick-ass color fading stages, which I did not expect. Oh! I don't think I have mentioned anything about my ombre hair in this blog. I thought it would be a good idea to show my hair transformations from the very beginning that I had it dyed till now. So here they are: 

This was the first color, I was using voodoo blue by manic panic. I was expecting the result to be a little bit darker cause that was the kind of color I was going for, but this turned out pretty cool tho. Also, I got it done at BloBar Salon Kemang. It was a tideous process which took about 8 hours. Yeah. You heard me. 8 hours. Talk about patience. 

Just thought it looks cool braided and all. Hah!

The blue faded out resulting this really in-your-face green which I wasn't really fond of. I kept this color on for quite some time hoping that it would fade lighter and somewhat gone, but it stayed like this for a long time so I decided it's time to layer it with a different color.

Ah.. This was precisely the color I was going for. I used shocking blue also by manic panic. Just exactly how I wanted it to be. My sister did it for me this time, cause all I had to do is layer the color. Nothing much to say, really.

The blue faded and this is the result. Pretty cool eh?!?! 

It eventually became more and more pale to the point where I could actually layer it with a completely different color.

My current hair color. I love the way the color turned out. I also had my hair cut before turning it to pink. I used hot hot pink by manic panic.

4. Last one. Are you ready? Are you...? Hhhmm??

I'M GOING TO LANEWAY FESTIVAL ON JANUARY 30TH! WWWOOOOOOOOO!!!11!11!1

I have seriously been waiting to go but haven't really got the chance and now I'm finally going and I'm just super psyched and and and got nothing else to say. I guess all I can say is... See you soon Lauren Mayberry?!?

UGH. So excited yo.  

Peace out. Have a good one.
