Virtual trophies.
Recently, I have received a few stylish / versatile blogger awards (which I haven't addressed properly due to lack of time) from fellow bloggers in the community. Thank you to Effril, Sharina, Dred, Alexa, Aie, Ava and Channie for the award. It's a simple gesture that I really take into heart because it's nice to know that in a world like ours wherein the most stylish and fashionable are just a URL link away, a newbie like me, who's still on her way to improving her style and aesthetic is noticed by my peers.
For the past days that I've been receiving this award, all I did was thank them in the comment box but I haven't found the time to do the "traditional" sharing of random facts about myself. So here it goes!
1.) I'm not conyo. Promise I'm not!
I have no intention to offend people who are branded "conyo" but I find it uncomfortable to be associated with that "notion". If you see me in person, I'm very bakla. Pax, Ana, Ava and everyone who has met me personally can attest to that. I come from a middle-class family, living in an apartment, who had to apply for scholarships (I was a scholar under the mayor of QC during my first few years in college, but didn't maintain my grade requirement when I got a 2.0 in a subject), went to a public (science) high school in order to study secondary level of education and occasionally does part-time jobs while still in school so I won't have to ask from my parents.
A reader once told me she thought I'm sosyal and conyo. I didn't knew until then that it's the impression I make when in fact, I started this blog thinking that I wanted to relate to a regular girl who commutes, who would opt to spend in ukay than branded stuff, who budgets money wisely, who does household chores, who eats anywhere and anything... you know that kind of girl. This blog and my new found love for fashion didn't change the girl I used to be.
2.) I am a dancer.
That's a part of me I never really talked about in this blog other than this post. I'm proudly a member of the UP Streetdance Club. Though I am currently inactive from performing, I still continue dancing during my own time. I've done ballet, jazz, hip-hop and breakdance. It usually comes a surprise to other people that I can do freezes, headstands, handstands and other stunts. It's also because of dancing that I got these huge muscular (scarred) legs! Haha!
3.) I have a cat named Kitoy which stands for "kitty boy" and a dog named Marimo. Hihihi.
4.) I don't have a college barkada.
No, I'm not an introvert. I'm really friendly with everybody but it's just that I never got to be a part of any group who I can consider my barkada. I basically hung out with everyone every now and then but it didn't become permanent. My really close friends are from my neighborhood, and of course a solid friendship with elementary and high school buddies. At the end of the day, I realized that I should only be with the people who are truly for keeps. And now, I'm happy with my newly-formed bond with my blogger friends!
5.) My french fries of choice is KFC's.
6.) I don't have a night life.
Meaning I HATE going to loud bars (I'm not even familiar with bar names). Yes I dance but no-no-no to disco dancing in sexy gimmick outfits. My night life, if not inside my house, is a simple dinner or a slumber party with friends just watching DVDs, bonding and infinite chikahan.
7.) I don't smoke or drink.
It's not because of what I think is "morally upright" or "healthy". I just don't. But if you do, I'm fine, got nothing against you, don't have any problems with it (I have friends who do)! ^__^
Hope you learned something new, at least a thing or two about me! By the way, I made cute personally-made buttons here which you can display on you sidebar. Display niyo ah!
