Black and Burgundy

Christmas has just ended and what a happy day it is! But is it really? I was expecting more of this holiday. The festive lights. The christmas trees. The delicious food. Celebrating with family relatives. But then this thing happened.

During the 24th of December, we were about to go to the seaside to celebrate christmas eve with our relatives. All packed up and ready to go. Of course we could not fit into the car so I have chosen to not ride with my sister Aimee and my other sisters, and my Mom and Dad.

I then ride with Shaira and her Mom and her little brother. If you know her we live together in our house, she is my cousin. Actually she mocks me for my height, excuse me for not being a 6 footer Shaira! *laughs.

We stayed much longer and her Mama did these things she needed to do. It is already 5 pm and it is getting darker. We were ready to go. On to the roadtrip! 

"Let us try this way. I bet it will be a breeze since the bridge of hope is now built. Oh and let us go pump this fuel to a full tank first!"Shaira's Mama said.

This is a war! Oh my! Are we stuck here? Is the time still moving? Why is this happening? Those are my thoughts. 

We are in the middle of the road squished. The cars are not moving and we were nowhere near our destination. 

From hours of hours of painstaking contest of who will get to go first. Who will find a way to cheat off the road and get to a faster way. The cars are so delicate even a tiny scratch is so infuriating. 

Hangry. Yes, all of us. We are getting more hangrier, a fusion of anger and hunger pangs is overtaking us.

"Let us go back!" I proposed. 

Shaira proposed. 

Her little brother agrees. 

Her Mama drove.

We squished through, going back even further, further more to our supposedly destination. We spent our Christmas Eve tired from being squished by this car chaos.

Faded X Kawaii Box

• 19
• HYPE on LOOKBOOK

I am greeted by the sunshines and warmth of the sun in my country. My look here is very minimal, clean, and chic. I wore a grey v neck shirt paired with this skirt. The combo is neutral, with subtle accessories and comfy as hell. Sometimes being minimal is enough as to being stylish. The holidays are getting nearer and nearer. Can you feel it? I can feel it. Holiday Christmas bliss is just ahead. Enjoy and savor while it last. Damn.

It is fast paced, quickly happening. In a moment I am shook, wildly stricken. In an instant I am, but only helpless. Most of the trauma is everlasting. The resulting scars are still deep, sipping.  I do not have any sensation, but only a bit. My bones are weak. My skin is still burning, having jolts of vibrating like electricity. My nerves are still damaged. Nothing will ever be or can be predicting, planning can be in any doing, but there are things that are inevitable. I am infinitesimal, but a tiny spectrum. I am tainted. A part of me has. Faded.

Comfy Christmas X Banggood Wishlist

The weather here is a bit chilly even if it is still always summer. It is only a week more left till Christmas. It is so nice just being comfy.  Holidays are so comforting. Its so nice as well to just be lazy and be so laid back. There is nothing to worry about. Everything is just as is. But after this, a new beginning is just ahead again, beckoning. A new year. There are so many possibilities. There might be different outcomes, challenges to come. But yeah, I still feel lazy haha! Can I still be lazy? This comforting feeling is hugging me tightly and never letting me go. There are just so many things to accomplish and do after the holidays. Can it just be holidays forever? Just kidding. I need to face it. I need to face you. Yes you. Laziness.

Everglow

Just a mere one week more and three days left till the Christmas Eve. The days are seemingly mundane for me and much faster. 2016 is coming and I do not know what the future will bring. Because the future brings what you least expect it to be. I learned that the hard way.  I bet 2016 will be another one hell of a ride and it just always is. Of course life is one hell of a ride anyway you look at it. Whatever you want your future to be, it will become. So it is up to you. 

I totally adore this skirt from Dresslink it is just so comfy to wear.
