Goodbye 2011

In a few hours, we will say goodbye to the year 2011. I'm freaking excited!~ 

I prepared a note for you, 2011. Here's how it goes:

Dear 2011,

When you came, I somehow felt that you'd give me a different experience. My perspective changed and I knew then that you would make me a stronger person. AND, you didn't fail. You took me to roller coaster ride. You introduced me to new people. Some were productive, some were not, some were positive and again, some were not. Now, I call most of them my friends - although some seemed like they were just passing through. Still, I am grateful for every person who came in and out of my life. I learned from all of them. 

One of the best thing I am grateful of is the time when I met my late father's family. Oh, they were really nice people!~ They welcomed me and my family with open arms and warm hearts. Those moments that made me asked, why only now? But the heavens have its own reasons why, so I stopped searching for answers. What matters most is that we have real connections now and it's never too late to start over. 

On most part, you were stingy. And you like seeing me suffer. The financial difficulties were a little too much to bear. But because we have mouths to feed, I can't just stop and frown and cry. Still, I am grateful because you taught me that I should learn to find ways to make my life, ours, rather, easier. Don't worry, 2011. I will be lazy no more and I will work well with 2012. That's a promise.~ 

Ugh! This note is getting longer, I'd rather stop now. I know I won't be seeing you again, so let me give you a hug. *hugzztight* Thank you soooo much!~ Thank you for all the wonderful memories, people and most of all, the lessons you have taught me. I will carry on and meet your sibling 2012 with arms wide open. I just hope he will like me and treat me nicely. Bye. ♥

Love, 
Me :D

Happy New Year to everyone!!!~ Be safe!
I'll see you all soon, after all the fuss! *mmmuah!~* ♥

Welcoming New Year

This is a bit late, I know. 


But this is soo important to me... :)

The photo above is me wearing the gifts that I have received from my loving online friends. I rocked out a Lolita dress during New Year's eve, and I thought of wearing them, too, for it complements the dress very well. The white ribbon brooch is from Zeruda, who I love soo much and inspired me a lot. And the necklace is from my very sweet friend/little sister at heart, Emily.Thank you, girls for everything. You're part of the blessing that I have gained in the past years. :))

The shoes...
from my mom ♥

Old folks believed that what you did on the first day of the year, you'll be doing it for the rest of the year and wearing something with dots can bring you good fortune. I want to be a better Lolita this year. A better artist of my own so called art. Of course, I want to earn and make it big this year, too. So I didn't think twice on wearing a polka dot OP for this event. Believing that both will bring me good things this 2011. And what better way to celebrate it? With family, loved ones and friends. Friends who also believe in you and appreciates you.

btw, that dress is also thrifted.. ^_^ lovely!
