Trick or Treat

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

This year may all of us have a fun-tasti-scary year.

Here in my work place, we get to dress-up according to plan, not so-planned and definitely not planned costumes . On my part, It's definitely not planned since I was so confident that its okay not to dress-up unlike last year, but, boy was I wrong . Come to think of it, last year was also "a not planned" kind of get up. It just so happens that it my devil horns goes along with my attire last year. What do you know, huh? tsk tsk tsk.

Anywho, here are some people who out done themselves by being scary, not so scary and not scary at all.

The Photoshoot: Two of Us

The finish product.

___

The photo shoot that up until now made me laugh and made me embarrassed at the same time has now come to its end. As promised, I will post all of the pictures here in my blog once she's done editing. Though, It did took a lot of time since it needs a lot of concentration and skills  on her part (Now where have I heard of that before?). Yet, it's still make you wonder what pictures she'll put together (I've been there, I know.)

Yesterday, the photographer herself sent me a message saying that I should check out the photos on facebook. Which made me, by the way, confused as to what she is talking about. After a  long explanation and a lot of confusion on my side --again. I finally put two and two together ( That's four! Kidding.)

 And Viola!!! Here they are!!!

Get Well Soon!

Three days ago, a certain someone was not feeling well. She told me that she somehow feels sluggish and cold. Though, when I touched her she said that I am much colder than her. (I wonder why?)

I was extremely worried since she didn't replied to my previous messages that I sent her via text. (Now, I'm more worried)

Though, I find relief when she answered my call yesterday (Finally). It was my last resort since there are a lot of things running on my mind by that time. When I heard her voice it was relatively small and weak unlike her usual boisterous self. I may be a worry wart ( I can't help it) but, I was indeed thankful and at ease knowing that she's at  home and recuperating.

So, I thought of something that somehow might cheer her up. It may be small I was hoping that this little message of mine can put a smile on her face.

Labs, this one's for you.

♥ Get well soon!♥

Anna 2: The Second Book

I was left hanging in there when I finished reading the first book of Anna Dressed in Blood. I was practically sad that I couldn't get to read a satisfying ending. In other words, I was disappointed. It took me awhile to get over it.

To take my mind off it. I was busy browsing the net looking for some good books to read when I came across a very familiar figure of the book cover. I blinked twice and a huge grin spread across my face.

Guess what?

I found it!!! The second and final installment of the book.

I did a spaz dance after finding it  (It happens from time to time, so don't be all O.o on me.)

The title is  Girl of Nightmares.

Here's the book cover:

> Where could she possibly be?<

Stay tuned and find out!

B.T.S. Part 1

"Better late than never"

___

Is what they say.

Then again, it's what I say. Hahaha.

___

This shoot was done last month and I haven't got the chance to flaunt it in here (That's right, flaunt is the term people. :P). This Mau's first ever photo shoot as a photographer.  As her best friend, I intend to support her of her latest passion and her being my best friend, didn't stop her either from dragging me along as her err--model?

A quick reminder though these photos are just "Behind the Scenes" since Labs is not yet finished editing all the pictures which she entitles " Two of Us" by the way. 

Moreover, these are the photos behind the--ehem---I quote and unquote  Couple-ish pictorial according to her.

___

Let us venture forth, as we take the path towards the Behind the Scenes of Mau's...

"Two of Us"

> The arrival of the members ---err---cast-- or whichever you prefer<

>The preparation.It's so hard to control one's laughter. Luckily I manage not to laugh in here and act normal-ish. Hihihi<

> Marjorie is doing the make-up. The photographer, "Mau", is reflected on the mirror. She's doing the BTS too. Isn't she a multi-tasker?<

> The guys moment of waiting. Girls take a LOT longer to prepare so mind waiting until the second coming??<

___

After waiting until the second coming (joke). We are now ready to do our first ever pictorial (gulps). But lets not talk about that.

As I have said earlier this isn't about me (whew. I'm saved)

It's about the person who made this shoot possible.

The photographer.

___

FACT:

Models aren't the only ones capable of doing poses in front of the camera.

True. 

Photographers too but, they did it behind the camera.

Very true.

That didn't stop me from taking those photos though.Hehe

Yep, I am that good.

___

Speaking of which...

Here are some incredible poses that made me laugh so hard (other than of course, her Oh-so-refined-words)  Check them out.

> The cat woman pose<

> Doing the close up shot she goes...KYAAA and tickled pink all over (seriously???)  before...<

> She (finally) took her shots.<

> Picture this, If you're the model and you hear her said words that are quite---fascinating. Trust me, you'll definitely laugh so hard that you'll drop the "be professional" words she keeps throwing at you from time to time. :D<

> Mau: "Look at her!! She's drinking it!! That's just props!! Props!!
Me: Weehhh... This is tasty!!! Ahahah<

___

After taking a couple of shots here and there,  we changed locations. Deciding the place was the hardest part since there are so many places that they want to go to.

Thankfully, they finally decided as to where we are going next.

___

The second location?

It's at Fort San Pedro and mind you, there are poses in here that you might find rather...amusing.

Don't believe me??

See below.

> That AZZ dearie♥<

>Ohh... another one<

> Now, bend forward..That's it<

> Lean to the left...good-good<

> Now, do the tip-toe.<

PERFECT!!!

___

It was a hilariously-tiring shoot.  But was it worth it?

Hmm...

Yep, definitely worth it.

___

These are just some of the Behind the scenes  pictures that I managed to copy and if you want to see more check out her blog http://mausarcon.blog.com

As to who is the person responsible for this?

You rock woman!!!

Till then.

The Beginning of B.T.S.

"Behind every memorable picture lies a person who captures every moment of it"

___

This will be my tribute to every person who will capture the moments that are unforgettable, memorable and will last til immemorial.

There are certain times where we want to treasure the moments that are already buried in hearts into a different form and the most common is through Photographs.

Because of photographs, millions of quotes and expression were formed. Quotes that rings truth in every word.

" A picture paints a thousand words."

- True. For there are some instances that truth lies on what we see and not on what we hear.

“Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.”

- By taking photographs we captured every joyous moment and not letting a second passes by.

___

This will be the beginning of a chapter behind every great, funny, loving, amazing photo.

A chapter who's the main character is not the model themselves nor the  successful pictorial but the person behind it.

"The Photographer"

As a new page turns over, another moment is captured.

Let us witness as how these amazing people manage to work hard and love their passion behind the lense.

Schaun's 1st Birthday

Last August 29, 2013 we celebrated the first birthday of my beloved nephew Shaun Eadric. It was a funny costume party. Every little kid was wearing their costumes by heart. Shaun " GuGu" as I call him was wearing a cowboy costume.

Shing- Shing!!

♥Woody Costume from the Toy Story movie♥

My Very Own

On my previous post entitled "I want YOU" I said that I own one of those cute cuddly things.

I was actually having an internal conversation with me, myself and I before I decided to to publish this.  Here's how my internal conversation goes.

Me: I should blog about you (Me holding  my cute and cuddly toy) 

My Mind: "Why don't you show a picture as a proof?"

Me: " Yeah, you're right! Why not?"

My Mind: "Do you have a picture?"

Me: " Hmm... I don't actually remember.."

My Mind: " Then think hard"

Me: " Uh..isn't that supposed to be your job?"

My Mind: "Ohh..right."

Warning: Having an internal battle is not a good idea and if you happen to do it. Be catious. Haha.

___

And now here we are.  Ready to show you my cute and cuddly toy.

A little background first, He (yes, he has a gender. Zip it) was given to me last year as a Christmas gift which shocked and touched me to be honest. He was wrapped in a Beelzebub wrapper (Did I mention that I like animes?) I was really curious by that time and didn't opened it until I got home.

And what did I found out when I opened it?

My very own MOKONA ♥

> Flaunting it. AWW! ♥<

I even brought it with me at my work place :)

This puffball is surely huggable and kawaii >///<

I can't get enough of it yet.

___

Here's more:

> I ♥ Mokona<

Mokona - Mokona Dayo!!!

THAT is indeed quite obvious.

If ever that I manage to collect those cute stuff toys. You can surely count on me to post it here. UNLESS, I go on a long hiatus. Haha.

Yours Truly,

4th Anniversary

This is the only time that I get to post the pictures that had happen last August 11, 2013. It was the day that the company was established and it's now on its fourth year.

I wasn't able to attend last year's anniversary for some reasons, BUT, for this year I came prepared.

The theme is about FIESTA!

___

The said event was held at Family Park  located at Talamban. Since the company is expanding and there are so many of us the place was indeed fit. For the preparations, all of us joined hand in hand. We did many things.

1. We trace a big triangular shapes for the banderitas.

2. We cut the traces.

3. We stapled it into the yarn or was it straw?

(Now, imagine doing those things over and over again since we have five or was it seven different colored flags) 

NOW for the groupings, we were divided into teams. Done by drawing lots that will assigned us what team we're in.

And did you know how easy to find your team is despite the growing population?

Yep, it is...it is none other than...

By COLORS.

___

Let's take a peek into the event, shall we?

First stop, the parade of colors.

>With Dora and Yvanne<

> Ms. Elda (yellow) and Dora (red)<

> Ms. Tin (ocean blue shirt)<

>Ms. Margarette (lavender) and Ms. Steph (purple)<

There are TONS of colors and sad to say I didn't manage to get all of them (Do forgive me)___

Second, the good thing about having this kind of event once in a while is that you get to meet your friends as well (especially if they are in a different shift or team)

♥with Pinky-puh! ♥

♥OT mate McQueen♥

♥Ms. Sharpay♥

♥the other LABS en-en♥

___

Third, you get to meet new PEOPLE from your team

> Team Powder Blue<

___

Fourth, you get to have fun. Teachers, staffs and even the students joined the fun as well.

> Sack race! Go Ms. Aira!<

> Finding a coin in a basin full of flour with Ms. Hershey<

> Students too have their share of fun!<

___

Fifth, lets not forget about the band.

> The band with David (vocalist)<

> Ms. Nice (Go TL!)<

 ___

Sixth, my team mates and supervisor

> Ms. Mia (our pretty supervisor)<

>Ms. Lee<

>Ms. Jonah<

> Ms. Aj<

> Ms. Mayu<

> Sir Lorex (the new on/off TL congrats!)<

 ___

There are so many pictures that I want to share with you guys but since I have limited time, I decided that it would be for the other site for you to see.

I had lots of fun!

My stomach was full because of the scrumptious food. Hehe.

And I get to spend some time with my friends.

Once again, HAPPY FOURTH ANNIVERSARY QQE!

The Plushie Project

Let's begin this blog with two questions.

1. What is a plushie?

To all those people who are filled with curiosity as to what it is. Here are some of the answers.

According to Web Definitions:

- A plushie is a type of doll made from fabric and filled with any kind of soft stuffing, often a personal mascot in the furry community.

From www.plushie.info

- A plushie is a stuffed toy animal. The most common and most popular type is the teddy bear, however, plushies come is all shapes and sizes

Okay, since we have now established that, let's move on to the second question.

___

2. What do we call the person who makes plushies?

The answer came from www.plushie.info

- They are called plushophile.

It may sound a bit harsh but the meaning differs. A plushophile  is a person who loves plushies. This can range from simply being a collector, to those who like to cuddle and sleep with their plush, and every shade between. (See? it doesn't seem so bad.)

___

 Welcome everyone to the Plushie Project!

This project is solely for making plushies alone and none other. I, The Book Worm, had recently found out that I can make plushies! (>.<) Do forgive me for the outcome of my plushies for I am just a novice in this field. But, your support and guidance is highly appreciated and welcome.

This cute hand made things are my stress reliever and hobby at the same time. Don't be shocked if I have various hobbies cause I've got tons on them and my other hobbies are yet to be found and revealed.

I have since long decided that someday I will be able to post some of my works in a site and for other people to see. I made a lot of thinking (even going to my thinking spot to think. think.think) and then just as impulsive as I can be (sometimes) I thought:

"What better way to let others see that post it here and then to the other site that you think dim fit?" 

and that's where all began.

___

Here are some of my beloved "Plushies"

Note:Just so you know some of my plushies have a name. ;)

>Cute Onigiri<

- This is my first plushie ever. Onigiri meaning rice balls.

>Starish<

- I gave this one to my colleagues. The green one to Ms. Aj and the blue one to Ms. Jonah<

>Usagi<

- Usagi means rabbit in Japanese.

>Kuroneko<

- Some of my plushies have Japanese names Kuro for black and neko for cat. In short Black cat.

> The love<

- Got that name from the last card Sakura have.

> The indifferent onigiri?<

- Since I have a big onigiri, why not make a small one?

>Piggy<

- Aside from rabbits and among other things. Me.like.cute pigs too.

>MonoKuro Boo<

- This one is intended for twin (Johalla) but unfortunately we haven't got in touched yet.

> Mike Wazowski<

- From the cartoon Monsters Inc.___

 The above pictures are all hand made cellphone chains :) I made them all without patterns by the way, except for the big  cute onigiri. The rest were just figment of my imagination.

Sometimes, I make plushies for my friends and sometimes its hard for me to let go of them ( I treated them like my babies you know) But it makes me happy that I made someone smile just by having these hand-made plushies of mine.

Until the next project

Yours Truly,

The Book Worm
