Feeling 21
Where were you when you were 21?
To me, it had been one chaotic phase. It was the year I graduated from college, so imagine naman ang crossroads and decision making I had to go through. I had to start from scratch uli, plus there were the superhard goodbyes pa in between na I did not took easily. Everything was forced to change, dyahe emotionally and physically! But aside from feeling "lost", it was also the year I went all-out with Anagon Collection, to sustain myself financially while still applying for a day-job in magazines and PR companies (Ang dami kong job hunt horror stories nun, haha! Minsan kwento ko ;)). Above all, it had been an exciting year!
Attended the Forever 21 Mall of Asia branch opening yesterday, and ovkors kelangan mag feeling bagets uli ako. Here's my feeling-fresh-grad look, hehe:
Pa-emo:
Lost!
Angsty, lol:
Red-Blue-White Striped polo - Ukay find!
White tank top with black splats - Oxygen
Red Shorts - Landmark
Brown Fringe Bag - Hong Kong Market
Black Oxfords - Forever 21
Accessories - Anagon
Sharing some photos when I was 21... Buti nalang may blog na ako nun! ;p Lol:
Full bangs, and faded ID (senior na e!)
Nakikinuod ng Counter Strike ng friends sa P.Noval, lol:
Won Php20K from a Banana Peel's art contest... Used the money to buy my first own computer!
Still working with Candy Mag, a pic with my fellow writers! Spot Tracy! Haha! :D
Speaking of Tracy, attended her debut din that year! :D Binibida kita sa post nato, gurl! Salamat talaga sa pics! :)
Went to new stores and new bands' gigs here and there for Candy.. With Kean hehe (hello Kelly!)
Bacchalureate Mass... aka good byes:
Graduated college...and hindi ko sineryoso ang pose sa official pictures, deym. Haha:
Obsessed with One Tree Hill! Even watched Fall Out Boy live! (Sugar we're going down!)
Ang of course, Anagon bazaar participation here and there! My family, ever supportive kahit from way back:
Looking back, being 21 ang naging bridge ko from being a kid (carefree and careless) to being an adult. The decisions I made when I was 21 reflect where I am today..
...And I have to say, I am proud of you 21-year-old Ana! :)
Since lakas na makareminisce ng post na to, leaving you with OTH: Sugar We're Going Down:
"I'm the guy for you Brooke Davis." Aruy.
