the much-awaited prom

In the Philippines schools usually hold their JS prom on the month of February and this occasion is considered as a highlight of high school life. Aside from the search for JS prom King and Queen other segments of the program are the reading of the class prophecy, the formal turn-over of the key of responsibility, the class will and testament, cotillion, dancing, etc.

more perks to a debut

A good host can easily come up with fun tricks to give life to the party. Lulls, gaps, or dead air can be filled up with some brief interviews or quick chats with some important guests. The host can hop from one table or group to the other to ask a few interesting questions having to do with the party. But always remember that the focus of attention here should be on the debutante.

Proms and Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day years back had never been as romantic the way it is scheduled today along with school proms. February is going to be one exciting month for all the girls in the Philippines as they prepare for their prom and Valentine's Day. To be chosen as Prom King and Queen could be the ultimate dream of every girl and boy in this part of the world. Problems that usually crop up around this period is the choice of the right gown, starting with the color, the cut, and the right couturier. Whew! I am glad that was all over for me.

Red is it

Hey, guys! Red is the in thing for 2009 so you can collect as many red items as you want to look in. I personally love red bags. They seem to just serve the right accent to one's outfit. Of course, it is better to also match your red bag with a pair of red footwear, whatever it is, and you're ready to go. Red by the way means many things. For one, it is the color of courage as it is the color of blood. Secondly, red represents life. In many instances, red is made to stand for strong emotions like anger and passion. Red can also have negative connotations like the teacher's red ink which is used only to write out a student's failing mark or make corrections on a student's work. A company which is said to be "on the red" is said to be having financial difficulties. Whatever is your take on this, red is definitely the color of Valentine's day which is going to be celebrated next month.

flowers on nails

Plain nail polish no longer works today. Women now want their nails painted as well as decorated with cute flowers. White flowers on hot red polish will surely be an additional accessory to women who can actually play around different colors each time.

chunky bracelet

I do not know what got into me but I was crazy about this silver chainlike bracelet which has chunky stuff hanging around it, so I closed my eyes andk bought it atIl Primo, a newly opened boutique in Dumaguete City.

what's new for the New Year?

Well, I got myself a couple of new things to welcome the New Year. I had my hair dyed and highlighted, and got myself a new pair of glasses. How about you? Anything new?

Happy New Year!

It's 2009 and it would be the best time to start everything with something different, something new. The New Year should usher in fresh hopes and renewed faith in the beauty of life and of living. Let us celebrate life and goodness! May you all have a more prosperous year!
