It is about 1 am and I'm still wide awake, I'm too excited to fall asleep. My birthday happens to co-inside with the feast of our city, so every year when my birthday comes around the city will be full of decorations and there are always parades, carnivals, sales on all the malls and some other fun things to do. We got back around 11 pm from the mall where I did some pre-birthday shopping and we watched the fireworks competition. I got myself thinking that I'm going be a year older tomorrow and I just hope that I will have another great year. I enjoyed being 24 and I'm a little scared of growing old but hey what can I do the fact is we all grow old. I realized that I can't stop time but I can make the most of it. I should get my priorities straight and really start cracking on with my bucket list. There are things in my life at the moment that I'm anxious about but I think for my 25th year I should just be brave and face everything head on and regret nothing. So for now I'll say goodbye to my 24 y.o. self and I'll gladly welcome a new chapter in my life. I shall enjoy myself in the upcoming year. Lots of love! >_<

25 FACTS FOR MY 25TH BIRTHDAY!
It is really true that after you turn 18 the years go by really fast. I could still remember my 18th birthday as if its was yesterday and now I'm turning 25 this coming August 29. My 18th birthday was extreemly special and such a fun time but that would be in a separate blog post. Thinking about it makes me giddy.
♥ Well I have done the all about me tag but those questions were pre-selected and it does give me much liberty to share things about myself. So for my 25th birthday I would share 25 facts about me that only a few of my friends know >_<
♥ The facts will not follow any order since I'll just write the first things that comes to mind.
1. I can tell from which part of my life I have met/encountered the person just by the way they say my name. I have so many different names/nicknames that's it funny sometimes especially on special occasions that the people I have known in my lifetime meet. So my parents and close relatives call me "Joy", "Joy-joy" or "Ate Joy", then my elementary/primary school friends call me "Christine Joy", my high school and college friend calls me by family name or my nickname"CJ", my co-workers and clients call me "Christine", one of my closest cousin calls me "Monster" which is the same name I call her and finally my boyfriend calls me "Mui". Other names used by my parents when they are mad at me is "Christina", "Marika" or "Tirang".
2. I have hypothyroid. I got diagnosed when I was about 20 yo.
3. I have a younger brother 2 years younger than me.

4. My closest friends are mostly guys. If you have seen my Singapore post you can see some of my good guy friends.
5. My best friend is my boyfriend who is also my childhood friend and crush.
6. I only started to wear make-up right after I graduated from University and started working.
7. I became interested in make-up right after I found the videos of elle and blair and other beauty gurus on YouTube. Up to this day I still watch beauty videos.
8. I have a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Masters degree in Business Administration.

9. I plan to work and probably live abroad if permitted.
10. I took ballet and piano lessons when was young but I nothing to show for it.
11. I also took guitar lessons 2 summers ago but I stopped because I can't concentrate. My teacher was a young and handsome guy about 3 years my senior and it made me self conscious. If they have given me a older and unattractive teacher then I might have continued my lessons and became a rock star by now.hehe
12. I only got "F" mark once in my life. I was so devastated, it was during University where almost all of the class got a failing grade for that subject.
13. My favorite number is 9.
14. Two of my favorite colors are Red and Yellow.
15. Most of my clothes are in black, grey and brown. I don't why I just like the way the color looks on me.
16. In every year my birthday falls on the same day of the week as my boyfriend's birthday. This year our birthday falls on a Monday.
17. My favorite food is pizza and Buffalo chicken wings.
18. I name most of my special things. Ex: My Macbook is named "Wallie", my camera is named "Ice" and my piggy bank is named "Kuss-Kuss".
19. I am Imeldific when it comes to shoes, I am obsessed with shoes, I especially love high heels.
20. I love reading and collecting books. I am currently reading "Poor Little Bitch Girl" by Jackie Collins. Favorite book so far is the "Hunger Games Trilogy".
21. If given the option to work or go to school, I'd rather go to school and study than work. I'm a dork!
22. I also love collecting any type of pens. I love using them and writing list. I'm a avid list maker.
23. My favorite TV show is CSI and America's Next Top Model.
24. I have a vision board and I truly believe in the power of attraction.
25. Every year I always wish for the same thing for my birthday.
So that's all maybe when I turn 26 I could I silly fact about me. Hmmmm we will see.

Frenemies "Tita Monster and Darren Andrei"
I was cleaning-up the pictures in my macbook when I stumbled upon the pictures of my nephew and it made me miss him. My nephew's name is Darren Andrei and we call him "Ren-ren", he was born on April 21, 2010 and we use to always play and fight with each other when I was living with them for about 6 months. I remember waking up to the sound of his voice calling me "Titaaaaa", he would also watch me while I get ready for work and put make-up on. Ren-ren would always follow me and my boyfriend Sting around when he would visit >.<
Here are some of our pictures that I love.
Warning this is a picture heavy post.
During Christmas day of 2010 at the beach.
During days that we were bored and had nothing to do exept take pictures >.<
June 15, 2011 Pool outing with Sting's nephew Jacob.
Me and Ren-ren goofing around.
Hugzzz...
Ren-ren reading the safety manual upside-down... and look monkey is also reading >.<

Pre Birthday Excitement
I feel so excited when the month of August comes around because it is my birth month. My birthday is on the last week of August but I can't help feel excited even at the start of the month. I get so excited what presents I'm gonna receive and what present I'm gonna get for myself. Yesterday me and my boyfriend went to the mall to look for my birthday present and we found it. I thought we were only going to do some window shopping but he actually bought it right on the spot. He simply asked me "do you like it" and i said "yeah its nice" and he paid for it. So now I am a proud owner of a new Samsung PL120 Camera which I named "Ice" because of its shiny smooth silver surface. The camera was somewhat expensive but he said its okay he did not like the other cheaper camera on display. My boyfriend is the greatest, he really made my day yesterday. I think he was making-up for the times that we haven't been together since he is so busy working. Now I'm excited to test my new baby out especially since "Ice" has a screen on the front so you can see yourself when doing self shots.
Here is a picture of me and my boyfriend "Sting"
