Heartthrob.

Hello my dear readers! I have been looking for a decent topic to blog about the past days, and yesterday it finally hit me! This is another music-related post, and I hope everyone can learn something from it! :)

Personally, I am a huge huge HUGEEE fan of the Quinn Sisters, Tegan and Sara. A close friend of mine introduced one of their songs to me, and ever since I have been so hooked up. The Canadian rock-duo has released their 7th studio album ‘Heartthrob’ last January 29,2013 and became one of the top selling album in Ireland, UK and New Zealand.  And of course as a big fan, I had to download their album — pronto. Haha!

 

TRACKLIST: (DELUXE VERSION)

  1. Closer
  2. I was a fool
  3. I run empty
  4. Now I’m all messed up
  5. Guilty as charged
  6. Shock to your system
  7. Love they say
  8. I couldn’t be your friend
  9. How come you don’t want me
  10. Drove me Wild
  11. I’m not your hero
  12. Goodbye, Goodbye

 

Last month, they released their music video for ‘I was a fool’ and as usual they were amazing. Check out two of their MV’s for ‘Closer’ and ‘I was a fool’ ! :)

 

 

 

Have an awesome day ahead! ;)

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

Do you know those scenes in Romantic-Comedy movies, with girls going out at night, having fun and well, just being girls? Well I do! Last month, I had one of the best-est weekend of my life! I got to spend the whole weekend with the best girls I know in the whole wide world <3

Me and my friends have been planning this outing/sleepover for almost 2 weeks back, and I’m really glad that we all got to go! Due to our different schedules, it made it hard to allot time for our get-together. But we finally spared the time! Like they say, “If there’s a will, there’s a way” :D

So, once Saturday kicked in, I woke up as early as I planned to go and fetch the girls. Once I already got them, we headed to our family’s condo in Newport City, Resorts World Manila. We adjusted and settled in the place before having our fun :)

Me and and 2 of my friends arrived at the condo (Nicole and Sheila), then the another of one our group followed (Van) since she had classes until 12nn that Saturday. Once we were completed, well, you guys can get the picture! 2 whole days of funnn <3

 

To the best-est friends, EVER!! <3

We went swimming, headed to the mall, dolled ourselves up for our photoshoots and well, just for the sake of being girls! Haha! Reminiscing everything that had happened still makes my heart skip a beat hihi <3

Of course what is an outing without tons and TONS of pictures? Check out some shots we took!! :D

Last May 11-13 has been one of the best weekends of my whole life. So lucky to have my amazing friends by my side <3

18th

So yesterday was my 18th Birthday! (june 2) and I celebrated my special day with my family stuffing ourselves with good food at the Vikings Luxury Buffet in Mall Of Asia. Believe me, I felt like a happy little piglet while secretly drooling at the countless selection of food, haha!

 

Usually, girls who celebrate their 18th do it with a grand celebration (i.e. Debut Parties) but I opted to just do a small celebration and just treating myself to a good ol’ shopping spree.

 

Back to Vikings, Oh geez. I dont even know where to start! I knew that they had good food; but I never thought that they had SUPERCALIFRAGALISTICEXPIALIDOTIOUS food! The variety sursprised me so much that I tasted almost everything in there! (Yep, I eat like a pig, I swear lol) The range was from Japanese to Chinese food and Mediterrean to American food. Dont even get me started at the Dessert Section! Red Velvet Cake, Strawberry Mousse and 3 chocolate fountains (white chocolate, strawberry and milk chocolate) and a whole lot more.

 

I was so busy enjoying all the scrumptious food, that I didnt take much pictures. When I eat — I EAT. I dont go instagram-ing them before eating lol.

 

Sushi Craze!!

Sushi Craze!!

STEAK. ITS FREAKING STEAK. (left-Lamb Steak, right-Batangas Tenderloin)

with the best-est grandparents, EVER!

 

I kind of feel bad that I didnt take a picture of my dessert platter, I was just so happy eating them sweets that I didnt even think of capturing the moment, haha!

 

Everything feels so surreal until now.. I cant believe I’m finally 18! Its just like I was 7 years old yesterday, and the next thing I know — I’m already an adult. I guess this is “how time flies”. I’m very very grateful to everyone I have met throughout the years, and to all the friends and family who greeted me during my special day. I even cried! My thanks to everyone <3

 

Happy 18th to me!! :)

Happy 18th to me!! :)

 

I am looking forward to all the other things to come, Now that I am an adult the level of maturity I used to have will have to level up a little bit more. A tad more serious, a tad more responsible and little more mature. Though I’m thankful to have my young face, haha!

 

Again, thank you so much to everyone who greeted me. God Bless everyone :)

DEMI | Album Review

Album/Music Review for Demi’s 4th Studio Album! :D

How long has it been since I last heard a song from this lady? I used to have her ‘Unbroken’ Album in my iPod, but due to a terrible mistake — I accidentally clicked ‘reset’ w/c deleted all of ts contents (stupid, I know)

Demi_Lovato_-_Demi

DEMI the self-titled, 4th studio album of Demi Lovato was released last May 14,2013. I got the album around May 16 or 17 (I dont exactly remember lol), and her album is now on the 2nd spot of my favorites. (next to Ed Sheeran’s “+” album)

I’ll give Demi’s Album a ranking of a 4.5 – 4.8 out of 5.

Don’t get me wrong, all the songs were spectacular, but I was hoping to hear more of her ballad/slow songs (example; Demi’s “Catch Me”) so yea, I wanted to hear more of those from her. LIKE I SAID; I love her album, nonetheless.

So these are the songs in her Album:

Tracklist:

1.) Heart Attack

2.) Made in the U.S.A

3.) Without the Love

4.) Really Don’t Care

5.) Something that we’re Not

6.) Never Been Hurt

7.)  Neon Light

8.) Two Pieces

9.) In Case

10.) Nightingale

11.) Fire Starter

12.) Warrior

13.) Shouldn’t Come Back

I won’t give every song a review, but I will post all the song lines that really caught my attention. AGAIN; All the songs are amazing <3 :D

** Heart Attack

– ” Never had trouble getting what I want. But when it comes to you, I’m never good enough. “

– ” Puttin’ my defences up, ‘Cause I don’t wanna fall in love. “

** Made in the U.S.A

– ” Our love runs deep like a chevy. If you fall I’ll fall with you baby. “

– ” No matter how far we go, I want the whole world to know
I want you bad, and I wont have it any other way. No matter what the people say, I know that we’ll never break. “

** Without the Love

– ” And you work so hard to get me, just to let me go. Yeah you put me in the spotlight, just to steal the show.”

– ” Why are you singing me love songs? What good is a “love song” without the “love”? “

** Really Don’t Care

– ” Maybe I shoulda known, That you would walk out the door. “

– ” Now if we meet out on the street I won’t be running scared. I’ll walk right up to you and put one finger in the air! “

** Something That We’re Not

– ” You wanna be more than just friends, I can’t go through this again. Stop trying to get inside my head. “

–” This isn’t love boy, this ain’t even close. But you always think we’re something that we’re not. “

** Never Been Hurt

– “I will love you like I’ve never been hurt.”

– ” I will love you and forever, I will love you like or never, like I never heard goodbye, like I never heard a lie, like I’m falling into love for the first time. “

** Neon Light

– “ You’ll be coming home with me tonight. We’ll be burning up like neon lights. “

**Two Pieces

– “Oh, but I don’t have to fall asleep to see my dreams, ’cause right there in front of me. “

–” We fit together right, we fit together like two pieces of a broken heart. “

** In Case

– ” I know one day eventually; Yeah, I know one day I’ll have to let it all go. “

– ” I say that “you can love me again”,  Even if it isn’t the case. “

– “  Strong enough to leave you, But weak enough to need you. “

** Fire Starter

– ” I’m so high, I’m burning up, kiss your lips, I’m waking up. “

– ” I might look all innocent, But the embers are burning inside of me. And I’m ready to take that step. “

**Shouldn’t Come Back

–  “Tired of being so sad, tired of getting so mad, baby stop right now, you’ll only let me down. “

– ” I’ve been laying in bed, probably thinking too much. “

**Nightingale

– ” Baby I’m a little blind, I think it’s time for you to find me. “

– ” You could be my sanity, bring me peace, sing me to sleep. Say you’ll be my Nightingale. “

– ” As long as you’re with me here tonight, I’m good. “

**Warrior

– ” I’m a warrior. And you can never hurt me again. “

–  ” A little girl grew up too fast. “

Well, I hope you guys enjoyed this Album Review! (If its considered as one, haha!) =)))

It’s too cliche.

“At least out loud, I won’t say I’m in love”

Well at least, I have a post that can actually relate to a more personal level, haha!

 

So while scrolling and exploring youtube, I came across Megara’s clip from the Movie “Hercules”, the part where she was singing “I wont say I’m in love”. Its been ages since I last watched that movie, so I clicked and watched the video. Would it be funny if I told you guys that it is now my current favorite song?

 

The last relationship I had was way back 2011 (which by the way, didnt end very good) so Its safe to say that I’m single. Hey, I’m proud that I am! Its good being free, no commitment, just chilling and enjoying life as it is. Sometimes I do miss the feeling of having someone right there with me. But nonetheless, I am happy to be single.

 

Well, technically the song states that Megara is in love, but too stubborn to admit it. The irony is surreal for me! Haha!

 

Anyways, the version that I have been listening too is The Cheetah Girls’ version of ‘I wont say I’m in love”, A little more modern, but I still love them sassy muses from the original version! <3

 

Fun Fact: Megara is one of my favorite Disney Princesses. She’s feisty and tough (not to mention, the only disney princess who didnt fall in love at once with the prince!) how cool is she? haha!

 

Hope you guys have a good start of the week!! :D

Mermaid.

I remember watching Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” back when I was 7 years old. And in that moment, I secretly wished that I was a mermaid.

 

I thought of putting that secret dream to life. And here I am now. Along with Ariel’s deep red hair and mermaid waves. It felt like I am not from this world. It takes a lot of confidence to rock red frocks (at least I’ve seen others rock theirs! lol) and I didn’t really think I would pull off this color. But, a shot in the dark wouldn’t hurt right? :)

What do you guys think of my new hair? Leave me a comment! :D

KICKS.

I have been eying these boots since last week, and yesterday when the Mall had a sale, I got them for half-price! Lucky grab for me <3

Snapshot_20130506_1

The style is very similar to Doc Martens and Timberlands, but this brand name is called “KICKS” I dunno if there is a similar one abroad, but its probably just Doc Martens or so.

 

Another addition to my shoe collection! *throws confetti*

 

FUN FACT: I fancy boots over heels.

 

Have a great day everyone!! :D
