Secrets

I've got three: wham, bam, and thank you ma'am.

Now playing

[Esthero - Bad Boy Clyde]

She knew this love would break her heart
But rebellion always turned her on
She liked the dangerous type, pullin' stick up heists
Waitin' for him to come around so they could be alone
And she would say?

Bad Boy Clyde, you know you drive me wild
Put away your gun, why don't you play with me?
Rollin' with your boys, you're always on the run
For just this once, why can't you stay with me?

xx,
Ri.

Resisting my inner fat girl

The moment I hit the third month mark, frustration started kicking in. As of this moment, I need my GVs and the only thing that I feel will make me happy right now is this:

500 calories in one awesome drink
It's truly the most tempting offer as a Venti mocha frap is only 87 bucks nalang thanks to the Starbucks Frappuccino Happy Hour! And to think I haven't had a frap in over a year! I am truly going to be breaking rules the moment I stand in line for one of these drinks :|

KILL.ME.NOW. *insertsadfacehere*

Sweet Disposition

[Thoughts while watching 500 Days Of Summer again]

Today, we easily forget what a good movie is like thanks to the plethora of rom-com and action flicks that are admittedly entertaining to watch but are truly insubstantial (parang cream puff). But thanks to movies like 500 Days Of Summer, we are reminded of just how much more interesting it is to watch a well-written, shot, and edited film. Plus, it doesn't have that oh-so happy ending we all expect to see at the end of a Hollywood flick, which garners it ++ points!

This scene from the movie, is my absolute favorite! View the photo and see why.

Expectations vs Reality.

P.S.
The movie's soundtrack is hella good as well!

Royal Wedding Madness 2.0

In other news, how HOT was Harry in his uniform?? Gorgeous. Abso-freakin-lutely gorgeous.

Move over, Wills! :">

Royal Wedding Madness

And it is done. William, Duke of Cambridge is officially off the market. Although my heart did not necessarily shatter into pieces (as I had expected way back when he still had a full head of hair), it was weird to see my childhood crush actually getting married.  The moment was so surreal but I think I've recovered from the week-long wedding madness. Or so I'd like to believe.

Oh and then there's lucky Kate Middleton, rather, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge who literally experienced the fairytale wedding ALL girls dreamed of when they were younger...or in my case, still dream of until today! (A pipe dream I know. But hey, dreaming is free right? :p) I don't know if she went through the whole Princess Diaries training that Mia Thermopolis had to undergo, but she definitely looked gorgeous and oh so royal on her big day. So yes, I am happy for her :)

So after this week-long addiction to everything Windsor-related, I realized how much I'm still that young girl who dreams of that big, white Church wedding with at least a hundred guests, a gown made by my designer of choice, a gorgeous bouquet with SUNFLOWERS in it, and of course standing beside my dashing husband to be. Whoever and wherever he is.

But for now, let's just all fall in love again to the tune of DARREN CRISS AND CHRIS COLFER of Glee and their rendition of Keane's "Somewhere Only We Know." I get so kilig even after watching it over and over again. I know you will too ♥
