An Afternoon Thought..

If only I had a choice.. I would much rather live during those times when internet didn't exist. Life seemed more real.. and colorful.. AND if only I could, I would get off Facebook and Twitter and only use email & cellphone.. I will really do my best to get on to that. Life seems simpler that way. :) Plus, love letters are more romantic! 


AND I think, minus the technology.. Relationships would be more fruitful.. Love would make more sense.. People would be happier.. Life would be easier to grasp. 


Less options mean less complications. ;) Less confusion.. 

Friday Weddings: CHUCK TAYLOR

Wearing Chuck Taylor shoe on a daily basis has always been my biggest frustration. I don't feel comfortable wearing it. I have this perception that Chucks on me looks baduy. Hahaha! So I don't normally wear them even if my heart is telling me that I should, at least, give it a try. Though I don't wear chucks.. I do have three pairs of them in different colors: Pink, Red and Gray. Looking at them once in a while is enough. Masaya na ako kahit hindi ko sila nasusuot. Cheap thrill of mine! :)

There were only four occasions that I remembered wearing them. Two of which are:

..on a Rainy Red Chucks Monday.

..Bohol Trip last November 2011.

Why am I telling this for my Friday Wedding blog entry?

Well, have you seen the movie, A Cinderella Story which stars Hilary Duff and Chad Michael Murray? That was the very first time I saw a Pink Chuck Taylor shoe paired on a white wedding-like-gown. And the ultimate reason on why I hurriedly got myself a pair of (my very FIRST) Chuck Taylor shoe at the mall the next day after watching it. And it has to be PINK, too. :)

It really never occurred to me, not even a slightest chance, that Chuck Taylor shoe on a wedding gown could actually look that pretty cool, awesome and cute. In fact, it looks "astig" for me. So if a Cowboy Boots wont work on me in the future and should everything else fail.. I'm resorting to this idea of wearing a Pink or a Red Chuck Taylor shoe for my own wedding in the future. :)

My March's Theme Song ♥

As much as I would want to save this song and music video for August's posting, as I want it to be my birth month's theme song, I can't seem to wait any longer. Hahaha!

I think this is the perfect timing to post it as I felt like something is changing in me or about to change (which I don't want to disclose as it is so important and too personal for me) and at some point, I believe that indeed TODAY MY LIFE BEGINS. Anew. :)



P.S.
Bruno Mars, you've done a really great job on the lyrics! Thank you for this marvelous song! Best explains how I feel. ♥

Triple M

Happy First Month Marius, Mimi and Marthena!!! Mommy Denise loves you so much! Hope the three of you grow up to be like your Mommy Maggie.. very loving, obedient and uber sweet! :)

Friday Weddings

This is gonna be my first entry for the Friday Weddings and the second feature entry for my blog. 100 Days Photo Challenge, being the first one I featured last year.


So here it goes.



Since November last year, I've been fond of looking at wedding pictures and videos. No, I'm not getting married (and in fact, I've never been into any relationships for exactly a year now), it's just that watching those videos and viewing those pictures reminds me how it is wonderful to be in love. And, of course getting your dream wedding.

If given the chance to meet a guy, get marry someday and have enough money to spend for my dream wedding, I would not miss the chance of getting these great photographers and videographers. Everyone deserves a perfect wedding after all!

Let me share you some of my favorite shots from different photographers.

The effect and the gown are so perfect!

I love the DIY props. Nice pre nup photo ideas, too!

Love the effect and the ambiance.

My favorite wedding photo in black and white effect! Almost perfect! 

And, the most romantic wedding shot I've ever seen! Great idea! This will definitely go down my list! ;-)

A-T-T-Y.

The first LAWYER in our barkada. Because I'm such a proud friend like that! Woohoo!!! CONGRATULATIONS Atty. Erlou Valera Salunat. To God be the Glory! ;-) I love you so! ♥

Top Three: ON REPEAT

MY SUMMER'S PLAYLIST: ON REPEAT

1. If We Ever Meet Again

2. All About Him

3. We Found Love

See you Friday! ♥

It's already March! We are nine months away from Christmas! ;D

How time flies!

Nevertheless, I've been thinking few weeks ago of what topic to feature and discuss here in my blog. And because I was so inspired and very much in love from my Law Professor in FEU, Atty. Rica D. De Guzman and my friend Steinrick's little sister, Frances Paraico-Busil's wedding photos both last January, I thought of featuring every Friday anything about weddings.

Who doesn't like weddings, right? Actually, I don't just like them. I love weddings!

So by next Friday, I shall post photos and write something about weddings, gowns, bridesmaids and anything that might could help me visualize my dream wedding in the future. ;-)

See you Friday! ♥

Leap Year

Today is a rare occasion. This day happens once every four years. It's called Leap Year. I personally don't know the historical background about it but there's one thing I know for a fact.


That in Ireland, Leap year has been a traditional time wherein women can propose marriage to the man they love.


Actually, I only learned about this when I saw the movie, which later on turned out to be one of my favorite romantic movie, which also carry the same title, Leap Year. 

My thoughts?

Well.. as far as I could remember, am still the same traditional and conservative Denise that I know. I would still prefer the guy to propose on his knee and ask my parents for my hand in marriage. Ain't it romantic?

And, since I'm also too curious about the history of this Leap Year tradition in Ireland, you may like to click the link below:

And before I end this blog entry, I would like to grab this opportunity since it's not every year that we get the chance to see this date February 29 in our calendars. So, CONGRATULATIONS to my best friend, a very very good friend indeed, my college barkada, a family and a soulmate, Ms. Erlou Valera Salunat for passing the November 2011 Bar Exams. And to her boyfriend, Mr. Chillon Dion Collado who's been a part of our barkada ever since they got together, CONGRATULATIONS to you both.

Attorney na kayo, PRAISE GOD! :)

Atty. Erlou Valera Salunat and Atty. Chillon Dion Agyapas Collado

Congratulations to the new Lawyers in town. And, to all my former classmates in UST, my college and law school classmates in FEU and to my gorgeous Portian sisters, I'm so PROUD of you all. ♥

List of the November 2011 Bar Passers

Tale as Old as Time

My favorite Disney movie, aside from Cinderella, Snow White and Aladdin. ♥

Dear Math, Why must you be so complicated? Love, Denise.

I hope that in my next life, I become a mathematician. Or a chemical engineer. And if life wasn't so short, I might have just taken both up. Just to see what's not to like. Or why it's so hard... if it's even really hard at all. I mean, just because I don't like it or hate it, doesn't mean I can't possibly be good at it. I want to be like Walter Bishop in my next life. :)

Monday Blues

If by any chance I turn 30 and remain single, siguro magma-madre na lang ako. Matagal na rin itong naglalaro sa utak ko eh. Besides yun talaga ang first dream ko. ;D


Ayy.. in fact, pangarap talaga yun ng Mama ko, kinopya ko lang! Hahaha. Bata pa kasi ako noon. I think I was eight or nine. Marami pa akong hindi naiintindihan. I remember that exact day when I asked my mom about her dream. We were in the kitchen and she was preparing two glasses of milk for me and my little sister. I asked her, "Mama, anong gusto mong maging paglaki mo?" She replied, "Gusto ko maging madre". I bombarded her again with a follow up question, "Bakit madre?" Then she quipped, "Kasi I wanted to serve God at magsuot ng abito." Voila!! The exact reason why I want to become a Nun, too. Gaya gaya puto maya lang ako sa Mama ko e. Haha! Tsaka idol ko kasi si Mother Earth. :)


Madalas ini-imagine ko kung anong itsura ko kapag nakasuot ako ng Habit (Nun's total outfit). At madalas natatawa ako sa sarili ko. Ang weird noh? Hahaha. Nevertheless, I love the whole idea of the dress. I'm actually in love with that thought alone. Ang babaw noh?


Dream ko rin makapunta ng Israel (which was already included in my Bucket List long before) at gumawa ng mga charity missions. Isang malaking inspirasyon si Mother Theresa sa pangarap na to'. Feeling ko kasi mas malaki ang possibility at ang chance na mapuntahan ko yung lugar kung saan ipinako si Hesus kapag naging ordained nun ako. :)


Tingin mo?
