Cute Booties for a Cutie & Pretty Berets for a Bonnie Lass

Friends have been randomly asking me to make knitted or crocheted thingies for them. And I usually comply because I love doing projects for my fave peeps. It doesn't hurt either that a deadline makes me wanna move my butt to finish projects on time.

These are my most recent projects.

The pretty mommy of this cutie asked me to knit giveaways for her first birthday.

I had so much fun doing these I've been wishing since that someone else would ask me to knit more. Hahaha.

Gracias bonita Mama and pequeña Hailey for the pretty project. :)

Then a few weeks after that, a much-missed beauty suddenly left me a message that she needs berets for her trip. I excitedly acceded. I've never crocheted berets before. I thought it would be a great time to test my crocheting powers. Hehe.

But man, I had to work these awkward fingers overtime because the said friend gave me a pathetically short time frame! Luckily, I finished and sent the thingamabobs to her just in time.

Don't you think they look great with her colorfully cute outfits?! I absolutely shrieked with glee when I saw her wearing them. Achinette belle, thanks for the request... and the pretty pixies!

I feel quite blessed to have friends who have so much faith in my knitting/purling/crocheting abilities. ^_^

Getting sunburned in Daanbantayan

I went to this nice resort in Daanbantayan for a weekend trip last month. And no, this is not the island, this is still within the main island of Cebu. Ley and I took the bus. This is not the bus terminal. I took this at one of the pit stops. :P It's been so long since I took the public bus somewhere that I forgot you buy the ticket while the bus is already running, not before you board the bus. Yup, I was a bit of an ignoramus that day, or a really amnesiac person. Haha. Anyways, while we were on the bus, I fell asleep. And since I took the window seat, this was what happened... And it hurt like the dickens!!! :( But the place was lovely. We arrived at the resort around noon. The place was lovely and I couldn't stop taking pictures. :D ... even when the weather got a tad gloomy late that afternoon. When dusk came, I was excited to take some twilight shots, which are among my faves. The next day, Ley and I took more...

The Love Month

It's finally February! Wait. What am I saying!? I still have so many things to do and not enough time anymore to do them. Yikes! I'm so in trouble! Anyways, I have finally started to feel the need to move my butt from its state of flagellation and feel the urgency to start panicking... erm, packing, I mean. But first I have to finish organizing my things at home. (Wish me good luck on that one.) And I also have to ready some official papers and just stop sleeping late and waking up in the afternoon. *sigh* Moving on. Happy February, everyone! After the Chinese New Year, it will be "Chocolates and Roses" Day! So, Happy Valentines in advance, guys and gals! May you all have someone to hug (whether tangible or intangible :P) come the 14th.

Day 01 - The Wallflower

Unoriginal, I know. Anyhoo, I've been feeling sorta low and have been trying to find some purpose these days. Then I spied my trusty D40 and told myself, "What the heck! Move your behind and start exercising those forefingers!" And so here I am trying to accomplish just that. I hope I get to see this through. I rarely hang on to things now. I'm a veritable "rolling moss" the past year or so and I hope to really break that horrid habit. So I hope this will be the first of many. :D
