Random happy sunday everyone. Haha!

Im thankful and happy this day and past weekend~
Chai edited my picture for one of her reader who wants to see a 'popteen' inspired photo processing in Photoshop. Hehe Im so glad of the outcome! ^______^

I've always admired her works and she's an awesome blogger too! Pls pls do visit her blog/website http://hello-reimei.com and http://littleforestgirl.net

Then yesterday I was so bored hanging out at our shop decided to play a little with my sister's photo!

this is my sister Faye, I love her soo much. And I'm proud of her cuz she's more responsible than I am and very smart,simple and humble but really FUNNY. ~ fufu, Im the irresponsible older sister. >.<

Some tidying done today

 Guilt moves me to do things I don't normally do. Haha. Today I cleaned my one and only place of territory in the house---my closet. When not online, I spent my time just hanging around in front of my closet which is very messy all the time. (I am too ashamed to upload a photo before doing the makeover.)

Well, anyway, I can't stomach the messiness anymore plus Im bored and down and I just folded clothes from  laundry yesterday so why not give my closet some pimp. Also to motivate myself to start being a responsible girl now. Theme was Little Twin Stars.

:P
Lighting is very horrible in that room so forgive the photos, even my camera&photoshop can't make it look bright enough.

 There are about 10 of us inside the house so pretty much hangers are very scarce. That's why I  fold my shirts and blouse. ~

 Im sooo proud of myself hahah! ~ But we all know it's only a matter of time before it returns to original form: Absolute Chaos. RAWWWWR!!!

Laundry day~

Sorry for lack of updates, peeps! Hm, my volcom purse was snatched from me last Friday along with my ATM card and other advantage cards and ID's.
So I'm extra busy trying to renew all of what's lost. But today I had chance to stay at home and do my laundry. :P Doing laundry was the last thing I want to do.

I'm depressed too (cuz of this issue I have in my college). I thought its no big deal but it's really affecting every thought I have in mind. And every time I wake up, I just don't want to breathe or exist -_____-

So I thought I'd wash my clothes instead to drift my mind over things. Also, took photos from my camera, trying to entertain myself. :P

I'll be posting my other Bambi circle lense review soon : > anyway this is just for now~

Review: Princess Mimi/Bambi Series Circle Lenses

It's been a while since I wrote a review! When my friend, Anz, reviewed this lenses I couldn't wait to have my own pair! very timing, cause my baby doll blue lense was damaged for some reason, so I threw it away.

Yesterday I received a package from GWYshop~ I availed their promo 3 pairs for P1,350 (30.95USD). Im glad I made it to the cut-off! It took 2 days to get here (since these are on-hand stocks) and it was a really smooth transaction. Though the promo doesn't include a lense case T.T Good thing my cousin have spares from buying large solutions. But I still think its a good deal!

Sesamigure/grey

Fast facts:

Lens usage: 1 year
Shelf life: 3 years
Manufacturer/ Place of origin: South Korea
Diameter: 14.5mm
Water Content: 38%

Under Natural light

With flash

CLICKING THE PHOTOS SHOULD GIVE YOU A NICE BIGGER VIEW OF MY EYES

Color:★★★★★

This is my first grey contacts, I thought they were dull on me because I already have brown as my natural color. And I still think they are after trying this pair. You wouldn't notice I'm wearing circle lenses unless I open my eyes like on the first photo~ 

Comfort: ★★★★★

I wore this for 2hrs, so far so good. Even applying them are hassle free. No itchiness, no blurry visions and they barely move. I just hope it stays the same.

Enlargement:★★★★★

According to the shop these are 15mm circle lenses. But I can't help but to question this. If its true that Princess Mimi are just repackaged from the Bambi series (I do personally belive because they look exactly same),this should be around 14.2mm lenses. Like what I've read in angelcolor.jp site(But maybe GEO changed it? or is false advertising?). My opinion is that they enlarge my iris just fine but still not comparable to my fave lense, GEO Sakura brown/ EOS g-208.

Over all: ★★★★★

I like it! Though not my personal favorite, I'll be wearing this often if there are formal meetings, job interviews, family reunions/gatherings and other presentations that are you know, doesn't need to be flashy and uber stylish :P

//I got 2 more pairs to review!and i tried Nana Suzuki's hairstyle hehe. But my hair's way short for it... And I just want to say that Im very happy and still shocked about my camera HAHAH. Thanks to my lola. ^_^
//EDIT FEB 17 2011 9:47PM
My friend, Mhaiko pmed me on facebook cause she pinpoint the difference of Bambi series from angelcolor.jp and Princess Mimi that are being sold internationally.

Left is from Angelcolor.jp and right: GWYSHOP

Notice the difference? The black border is evidently more thicker on the right photo. And Mhaiko also said there was something different about the pattern/spikes but I couldn't really see it. I'll just leave it to you guys to find out. So Princess Mimi are 15mm lenses after all!
Anyway, photos are put together by Mhaiko.~ and images belong to their respective owners :)

Dilemma: Blogger/Blogspot Vs. Tumblr

Having experienced blogging from both worlds, I am totally confused where to settle/host my blog for a domain.
I made a list of pros and cons for each site.feel free to read them or correct me if you find something off. :)

Pros(Blogspot):

• Google friend connect- works mostly on different blogging platforms (wordpress, livejournal, etc..)
• Stats- You dont need to sign up to counters anymore just to keep track of your traffic, page views, unique visits and such.
• People tend to take blogspot's dashboard more seriously compared to tumblr. 
• More interactive readers- Based from my experience, if you want to show your co-blogger at blogspot some love, you'd make an effort to actually click the title, go the site,leave a comment, type captcha and hit enter. As for tumblr, well, if you want to show some love why don't you just click the heart/like button over thurrr.
• Template Designer- Easy to use (but very limiting)
• Rich text editor- More options compared to tumblr.
• Gadgets!- I like blogger's rss feed gadget, I really don't like to hang around on my dashboard and wait till my fave bloggers post something. I'd rather by stand on my page and refresh then I'll see from there that they updated their blogs.
• Blogspot tend to be more visible on google searches.
• LinkWithin- number 1 referring site
• Small chance of dashboard spam.

Cons(blogspot)

• I dont know if im just noob or what but how do you customize your post URL?I hate loooong post urls
• Can't make a separate page for archives unless you do it manually.
• Very HTML. If you want to fully customize your page, you have to tackle the deep forest of 'edit html'
• Annoying navigation~ I know that we can always remove it but I really dont wanna hassle new readers trying to look for my Follow button up there.
• Limited templates. It's either 'that's not it', 'shitty hard to edit template', or 'everybody's already using this template ugghh'
• Smaller dashboard ._.
• Hmm things are slower to get viral here on blogspot compared to tumblr (this is just my opinion)

Pros(Tumblr)

• I can customize my posts' urls
• Lots and lots of themes to choose from (w/c you know, my weakness)
• Easy to earn followers? (Tumblr users like to follow and follow, this is the most taken for granted button there)
• Separate page for archives (I prefer this feature soo much)
• There are actually REAL bloggers on tumblr not just your usual spammers & stuff.
• Not so much pressure blogging. Laid back and sometimes if a post is too personal you can assure people will just ignore and scroll down to someone else's post haha.
• Tracked tags- you know if a person mentions your name or your fave tags.
• Clean HTML build up. Not complicated. More smooth looking.
• Follow button and Dashboard button looks neat and makes the page more personal than blogspot
• Whole page dedicated to your fave tumblogger's posts

Cons(Tumblr)

• Don't support google connect.
• Can't track your pageviews.
• Unstable (that "Will be back in few mins" page)
• Your post can drown from billion photo spams.
• No page breaks on dashboard. Followers can directly read them from their dashboard that reduces the chance of more traffics
• They don't show up on google searches much~ 
• No comment system. Use disqus!
• More probability that your original stuff can be ripped from your blog.
• Can't haz my fave blogger's rss feeds on my page T.T only links to them

The list can go on.. If you have something to add please do! I know I'm not the only one having this problem, I actually did a little research opinions from other bloggers.

I want to host my blog and I of course I want the best blogging platform out there with maximum performance.

Sorry this post seems a lil boring but I need your suggestions <3 I can always export my blogger posts to tumblr but if ever, tumblr does not yet support exporting of post. I think its intentional because they don't want their users switching other site?~

But tumblr is still very young and can always put new features and updates. So what do you guys think? Blogger/Blogspot or Tumblr?

There are unfair people on planet earth

Few weeks ago I tried my luck on home based online job. I got to be accepted and started right away as an captcha encoder, we will start 10pm to 7am typing captchas and stuff, it was a very easy job but very boring, I'd rather be cleaning toilets if it wasn't for 350php rate per day. But since my grandma came to Philippines, I was absent at work for like 4days straight, tonight when I log on to Skype to apologize for my long absent, I saw some of my co workers are already chatting. Something's wrong~ And so the news came to me that our job was actually a scam. T.T I feel heavy and sad. I should've known!!

Who pays that large amout of money for just typing captchas? Well I was stupid enough to believe it. And I feel sad for my coworkers who worked hard and don't absent~

Charge it to experience, I guess. 

So tonight it was settled, they're going to publish something negative about our boss (who scammed us all including his OIC) so yeah to those who're like me, trying to look for home based jobs, please inspect it carefully first! Don't be stupid like me! 

funny captchas I encountered while working

animal print jacket and other stuffs

I received my new camera yesterday as a gift from my nanay (which is my lola actually). So finally I can take proper photos and post coordinates more usual than before. I noticed I just go upload things I buy but never really get to post wearing them :< 

And maybe I'll take photos of anything I find interesting or so.. I guess this is normal when you have a new camera? haha. You'll have to bear with me on this OMG-new-camera phase of mine XD

Expect more photos each post (or not)!

Seahorse trapped in a candle~

Another false eyelashes. Will try soon

She was very kind to accept my request. Thank you Linus for the photos though we almost forgot to take pictures haha.~
