Doing good in school can be rewarding!

Some of you may know I'm studying in DLS-CSB with the course of Fashion Design and Merchandising! I transfered from UST just because the course I got there just isn't for me at all! and I'm just not used to the surroundings there and the people. During my stay in CSB... Im on my 4th term already as i remember correctly. and so far I got to be a deans lister for 2 terms! It feels very rewarding after all your hard work paid off! It was frustrating at first just because people think when you're in CSB you have to be a DL automatically cause its easy to study there. But it really isn't that easy. You still have to really study to get the grade you want. People also think that CSB's students are dumb, They are not. Some of them just isn't focused on studying just yet, but they come around eventually. They have really talented students there that are very good in their respective fields.

For the first term that I had there, I was almost a DL but because of 1 subject that I got a 2.0 I didn't meet the requirements to be a DL... :( the second term, I got mostly 2.5's and so my average this time didn't make the cut. But for the third term since I'm starting on design foundation subjects! I made it through!!! I got exactly a 3.0 average for the term and i was so happy!

here's my grades breakdown:

And finally the recent term that I had, it was a good term taking up my final design foundation subjects and will be off to my majors next term! I got an average of 3.25 this term and was happy!! This term was very stressful because of all the requirements needed but i got through it!



It keeps me motivated to study harder seeing these kinds of results and I think that most people also would be. It isn't about doing it for other people but for yourself as well. Learning is really fun especially when you love what you're learning and what I'm learning here, some Im not really fond of like photoshop and video editing, drawing and stuff but at the end of the term I have learned to love it and also did a good job with it! As my profs point out that I have the talent for art. So I think we should just give everything a chance and also give ourselves a chance to excel! 

Goodluck to everyone for the next term! especially to me! I get to take 4th year classes which is scaring the crap out of me because Im still a sophomore. :/

My Christmas Wishlist!

Christmas is literally just around the corner and I'm so excited for the gifts I'll be receiving! I'm not quite the food person so it doesn't excite me as much to eat some lechon and stuff this holiday season.
As I'm getting older... There has been a decline in gifts that I have been receiving which SUCKS! But none the less, I still make sure I get the things that I've been eyeing on this Christmas season! may it be from myself or my family! I've created this Christmas Wishlist just so I would know what I've been wanting and what I've been getting already! :) I hope you could find some interesting stuff too!

The first one that I've been wanting since the first time i passed by it is a little bit of a splurge but I WILL get my hands on these soon!!! so it's the Kate Spade 2 Park Avenue small Beau Bag!


From Topshop: I'd like the following:

JONI JEANS in this light blue color.

Disco Pants in black, I already have a blue one but it's soooo hard to wear... :( 

My Little Pony Cheeky Pants (which i already have)

LUSH Body wash in Snow Fairy  (this was a gift from my sister) I love the bubblegum scent of it just like Lush's Snow Fairy magic wand!


Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh  ( Since I already have the Daisy Eau de Toilette I want to have another one! )

Marc Jacobs Honey Eau De Parfum 1.0 oz




Pacsun Sunflower Dress (which i already got myself, but it's not really from Pacsun because we don't have that here in our country... I just got mine at an online store at a very good price and quality)
A small bag that i can use in school when I got nothing to bring really.... (because we draw/paint on sketchpads and canvasses not read books and write on notebooks) 
Aaaand I got this one from Terranova because they were having a sale!!! It's such a cool bag just because It says HI on the front and BYE on the back! 

Jeffery Campbells Litas I got this already but mine's from wholesale7.net (which is an online store from China) so it's a knock off but it was such a great deal!!! 



Cable Knit Sweater in White ( i found some in Terranova and they were on sale! the branch in Robinsons Manila has a wide selection)

Plaid Pants that I found in ZARA kids (they can fit adults with the size 13-14)


IPhone (I dont care if its a 4s, 5s or 5c)


CÉLINE Black Leather Luggage Tote Bag (small) 

A knock off will do since I don't think I'll use it all the time...





FINALLY a 2014 planner! (i'm in the hunt of a cute new planner that i can use for the next year!)


I think that would be enough for this year!! :) and i really do hope to get all of these till early next year... aside from the Kate Spade Bag... I'll probably be waiting for 2 more years, just because I dont want to spend my own money for it... :( I don't think they'll still have it by then. how sad..
