Lolita fashion (ロリータ・ファッション) is a fashion subculture originating in Japan that is primarily influenced by Victorian clothing as well as costumes from the Rococo period [more info] I’ve learned that here in the Philippines we also have a number of Lolita fans, enthusiasts of the said fashion.
Some of them have a little gathering this weekend:
When: March 6, 2010, Saturday 3pm onwards
Where: Tsoko Nut, 2nd Floor SM Makati
(After Kultura and McDo)
Attire: Lolita
Theme: Alice and Wonderland
Not a Tea party but a Hot Chocolate Party.

Productivity? It’s all the in sack.
We have free cooked rice or kanin in Tagalog for lunch in the office I work in. I found this sack of rice supply in the kitchen, and well, I was just amused with the name. ~

Sinandomeng is one of the many varieties of rice in the Philippines. It is characterized as a varierty with a longer grain thus a more full and hearthy cooked rice. Yum. Ulam na lang!~

I few weeks ago, I got to go back to UP Diliman, my university - the University of the Philippines. I didn’t know how much I missed the place! The spaces, the trees, the (fresh) air, the whole uplifting academic enviroment that just makes you love learning and go back to school.
Even though I only got to go inside Palma Hall aka AS again, still some pictures just had to be taken for the sake of.



In front of Palma Hall - the AS steps, student groups are given freedom to express their feelings by street painting/messages, may it be for the sake of art, political or social views. Events and gathering are held here a lot, too.



Inside AS, there are boards anyone can postto freely (…so, just imagine how it was in the non-cellphone eras…), walls are canvases (here seen in the center, the Oblation, the symbol of UP, around it various scenes from our history). Lobbies are usually hangout/meeting places, waiting areas, or “tambayan” with no seats around, we just crash on the floors - the UP way… I guess not anymore?
And what do you do in UP to kill time? (if you weren’t studying or partying that is.. hehe…) We eat!
