Strike That Pose!

One thing Im not confident on taking photos of myself is striking a pose... I really admire people who pose fiercely! Its a thing that gives impact to a self or group photo even just by simply wearing a plain outfit. Take for example a blogger friend of mine who really strikes a fierce model pose every time the camera turns her way, even if she's in the crowd she would never fail draw everyone's attention because your like seeing a Miss Universe in the crowd of people. Check out how Roxanne pose below...



Earlier, this day I really told her I like the way she pose and she said yes because she  used to join beauty pageant way back when she's still young... Praktisado na! lol Kidding aside here is our pose....
So here's some tips I've researched online for my readers who are also having trouble posing on camera.
  • Look for inspiration. For example, if your taking photos outside, you may see the sky and be inspired to look up as you are being photographed. Or sit on a tree limb or in a flower garden.
  • Get a little creative. Start dancing around (if its appropriate at the time), or make a big doe-eyed expression. Don't limit yourself to a smile.
  • Be Photogenic. Try some poses in the mirror. Determine your good side. Fold your arms, tilt your chin down, smile or keep a straight face, lift one eyebrow, or make a crazy face!
To end this post, I'll strike my own fierce pose. ;)

Unexpected Blessing

Just a few minutes ago I opened my Yahoomail to recover a password of my Twitter account. I rarely checked this email, only times like this that I need to log to recover/change a password on the social networks that is associated with this account. So since Im already log-in after the verification process in Twitter, I go on and checked emails one-by-one and delete those are not important. As I progress reading through and deleting 1 email caught my full attention and I actually read it a few times before I went checked my other Paypal account. I received a payment on one of the affiliate websites I sign-up before. I never really give much attention to it and after installing the banner on one of my blog (of which I rarely update) I just left it and never monitored. Imagine my surprise receiving an amount of which is really a big help for me now since boss has not sent salary yet. And I had so many bills waiting for me to pay. Wheew!
God indeed never leaves me alone. He never fails to remind me to be patient with everything, to always hope for the best and to be always thankful of what I have right now. Surprises will come on the right time... in the right place, just like today! :)
Thank you God! I was so surprised that I got so emotional. I am amazed at God's grace even if this isn't the first time that He has helped and blessed me specially in times when I want to break down.


I was listening to my Emotera Playlist in Youtube that on a perfect timing the song "I Know You're Not Alone" by Sweetbox played.

Who knows I might meet my future husband there also. lol

Nails In Sapphire And Lucky Red

I think it has to do with me having mani and pedi on the first day of the year 2012 that I don't missed a month that I don't treat my hand and foot into a nail spa. lol Crazy myths right?! Or should I say lame excuse. 

I usually just have my nails treated once a month. Another lame! ^^  Mostly I have a home service Manicurista that is just a text away but if she's not available I go to random Salons.

Here are 2 of my fave nail colors I've had so far this year...

June - Sapphire

July - Lucky Red

August - Aquamarine

Next manicure will have something pink and stylish... Cant wait to use this up. This stamping nail art just recently arrive today which I purchase online.


Do you girls stick to one color only? Or like me you have a nail color of the month? And do you always match your hands and feet nail color? Coz to me I don't match them. ^^
