Drinking water religiously has always been an issue for me. Since I was younger, I'm not the type to drink 8-10 glasses of water everyday, my parents would often remind me to always hydrate myself and they would even explain how our body is made up of 75% water. I never listened. At first I find it "cool" that I can last a day without any fluid intake, I would even brag it to my friends. However, just recently I realized the danger of not drinking enough water when I underwent major operation. The anxiety before and after surgery, add up to the painstaking recovery process is something that could have been avoided if I only listened to my parents and drank water regularly.

Bullying/Cyberbullying is very prevalent and dangerous these days. I know, because I have been a victim of it many times. This is a serious problem that shouldn't be taken lightly - it has caused anxiety, depression and even deaths to people, especially teenagers over the years.

Back in 2009 when I was a new student in high school, I have been bullied by some of my batch mates. It was honestly one of my toughest times. These bullies have literally pushed me around to the point where I almost fell off the stairs. I can still remember when we lost our house from fire that same year, one student randomly came up to me and said, "Buti nga nangyari sayo yun". Could you imagine her audacity to say that to my face when I was still grieving? I was so furious that I wanted to slap her, but since I was a new student then I didn't want to make an action that would cause me a bad record and disappoint my parents. But the fact that the idea of physically hurting somebody came into my mind, only means that I already had enough. That time, I couldn't do anything but to run to the nearest comfort room and cry. These are things that I only see happen in movies and never did I imagine it'd happen to me.

For months, I felt like I was their bait, until one day I decided to stand up for myself. I opened it up to my parents who was very supportive throughout the ordeal, they wrote to school authorities and informed them that they were ready to take matters to the court if these bullies don't stop. They were serious about it.

To you, rooftops might not mean too much. To me, it’s a little slice of heaven on earth.
This is the place where I usually go to when I want get away from the expectations, the conversations, the noise, the (social) media, and the pressure. A place where I get to unwind, meditate and conceive new ideas for the blog or even songs. Whenever I'm up there it's as if nothing else exists and my mind is freed to simply take the moment in. There is nothing wrong with moving away from anything that distracts you from contemplating on life once in a while. It can be through reading a book, going for a long walk, taking a dip in the pool or eating a hearty meal. Trust me, carving out a little solitude can make a world of difference.

So, what does your slice of heaven look like? Tweet me!

Sheer Clothing is, without a doubt, one of the most difficult pieces in our closet. Reveal too little and your look suddenly becomes less interesting, reveal too much and you'll get awkward stares from people. The thing about this type of clothing is it adds more Oomph to your look. But the question is, how does one wear sheer clothing without feeling overexposed? Sheer look can really work to your advantage if you're comfortable wearing a little more skin and if the occasion allows for it (take note of general lighting). In my case, I thought it would be more appropriate to layer this Embroidered Sheer Top with a strapless bra underneath. For the bottoms, I could either wear trousers or pants for a more conservative look but since I want something a little sexier and elegant at the same time, I matched it with this Pleated Skirt from Forever 21.
