Take off that masks and see the beauty behind.

A family away from home is what I found from them. It's fun working with people who will not just teach you things but will also make you laugh.

On December 21 (Yes, the Doomsday the say.), the company held its 4th Christmas Party at One Esplanade, Mall of Asia Complex, Pasay City with the theme Masquerade Ball.

Goodies and a lot of cash prizes were given to everyone and because this is my first Christmas party as a working girl, I was really overwhelmed by it. People really dressed up for the night. Some opted for long gowns while others with their big, balloon ones.

And who would have thought that I would be nominated as Ms. Cherry Mobile? LOL Too bad I didn't win, I still lack the audience's votes.

It was a good way to forget the 122112 everyone's afraid of, and a better way to prep up for Christmas.

And I forgot to say that I am so privileged to be part of the 3-peat team who worked hard (Hard in terms of practice spent) to won the group performance. :)


Real men wear pink. And real women love pink. True?

Pink, blue and beige are such a powerful combination! It reminds of sakura's beauty (which I really wanted to see since high school).

Though the colors were striking, I did sideview and arms-on-the-tummy poses to look thinner.

See those feather earrings? Those are among my favorites. I got it from a bazaar last year, just a day before my 20th birthday.

The fun part of this shoot? The couture pose of models and wannabe models like me. LOL

If you are thinking why I kept on posing with my legs crossed, I just felt the need to balance my weight.

The high heels made me trip just before these photos were taken.

Who's in for some glitter rockin' look?

My all-time favorite sequined skirt (which I just once wore in a party way back in college) plus a pair of dork glasses equals some hotness.

This was the lost outfit taken by my friend Ica on our shoot on an All Souls Day.

I bought the glasses in a Japan Surplus shop with my mom. It was difficult to find something that still looks good and this one's surely a treasure for keeps.

Here are some more shots without the glasses on.

Plus this one!

The most perfectly imperfect pose from me...Tadah!

I may don't want to bring it up, this look reminds me of my friends who occassionally tells me that I look like one of those p*rn stars in the Internet. LOL

Feeling a bit preppy?

This is just in. Sweatshirts aren't just for the rainy season.

To give it a different vibe from the usual sweatshirt in the cold, I paired mine with pink socks and violet sneakers.

Invigorated with the playful vibe, I felt like remaking a Michael Jackson pose. Unfortunately, we are just amateur photographers.

Less of accessories since I wanted to look a bit sporty. The yellow watch, I guess, was the right piece for this.

Kawaii, this is!

Who would have thought that you could look like a goth just by applying those dark make-up and heavy black outfit?

This outfit reminds me of what I wanted last Halloween. But since I had a difficult time searching for the outfit (And yea, because I was too tired to find it), I had to opt for the red bodyfit dress and mouse ears.

My thick false eyelashes fit the attire perfectly well. I look more goth because it made my eyes look darker.

I had to wear an Obi belt so the skirt won't loose. :) That means I still got those flat tummy.

Thanks, Ica, for taking shots. I'm still lucky to have the not-so-blurry photos. LOL

The planner craze? Hell yeah! And they recently held a fair at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall. When I saw this photo on my Facebook newsfeed, I immediately tried out by sending a photo and luckily, I got in.

The BDJ Fair 2012 was a one-day fair where one gets the chance to hear talks about beauty and fashion from notable speakers like Divine Lee (Yes! The Divine Lee!). They also got booths where girls (and even boys) can get freebies and sign up for discounts. Despite the heat in the venue, we managed to enjoy the day. My newly-found model girlfriends made it memorable too!

See Divine Lee? :P

There were all smiles and pose from them. It was my first, and for some too! We get to be dressed by SM Ladies Fashion and personally styled by Sydney Yap.

The fashion show proper went for about ten minutes and although the lights made me sweat, I tried to look fine (and pretty as they say).

Aside from the modeling experience, I felt grateful to have people who will support me all the way. My sister, boyfriend and friends did their best to support me in this small show.

With my sister Love.

With my dearest.

With these two lovely ladies who weren't able to see the show but still tried to support me by going there. Thanks, HJ and Kia (L & R)!

And of course Mek who took a video while we were on the ramp! Yay!

Lesson learned? A power bella resides in our heart. Let's all be one everyday, when we can!
Thank you, officemates, for making my Halloween extra special! Wigs brought by Sir Krissy were just too colorful for us!

So whoever told us that Halloween's all about the black and blood is wrong. Look at us as we flaunt those colors on that "creepy" day.

Dressing up was the most-awaited part of the day! HR told us that we should look at our creepiest but since we hate the dirt of putting those fake blood, we decided to be more of a pa-cute by wearing headbands and masks.

Look who's behind us! The winner of the Halloween dress up challenge! It's the modern day version of Chucky! His name? Chaka =)

I really enjoy my work because of these people. Thank you for making a home away from home for me! <3
