Lucille

I've been having a bad week and needed to shift my focus to something else, something new. Aside from going out at night with girlfriends for drinks and whatnot, I just got myself a kitten! My cousin Ria originally asked me if I knew anyone who would be interested in buying her 3-month old Persian kittens, but eventually asked me if I'd buy one for myself. I went down to her unit (we live in the same condo) and met her cats. I'm not sure if pets are allowed in our condo, but they've kept theirs for years. But then when I asked them if they bring their cats out, they say they put them in their carrying case so I'm not sure if the people in our condo are even aware that there are animals in the building! It helps that the cats don't make any noise at all! I swear, I'm not a cat person but when I saw them, I instantly fell in love.



This is Lucille. Those who have read the manga Beck or watched the anime version of it, you'd recognize that it's the name of the guitar with the bullet holes that Ryusuke used.



One of her brothers is still for sale! If you are interested, leave me a comment here!

Annual Heartaches

I decided to read my old tweets. It's scary how alike my situation now is to where I was last year. I mean, check the dates! But, I honestly believe that it's for the best this time. Like I said last year,


Now I just need to move forward with my life. I like drama, but it would do me good to live without it for a while.

Something to look forward to

I've been wanting to take up short courses on some technical skills in Fashion Design. Patternmaking and sewing to be exact. This term my load is not that heavy, having classes only every Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Friday's not even booked, just one 3-hour class. So since the term break, I've been looking into schools that offer such classes. I've contacted LCI-Manila first and they sent me their schedule

And then I saw the one in SoFA.



I remember my friend Ianna recommending the school. She took some classes there before and she said the atmosphere is fun. I don't know anyone who has gone to LCI so I don't know how it's like there. Also, considering that I want to take up both Sewing and Patternmaking I think it would only be convenient if I take it up in SoFA since they offer that. I just wish it isn't so soon, I haven't even talked to my parents about it yet.

So tired of being a bum at home. And I need to meet new people!
