Long vs short hair

Before my graduation day, i was thinking to have a graduation hair cut. I haven't had the idea of what type of hair cut i wanted. So i decided to just trip down my hair and have my split ends removed. After i arrived at the salon, i told the lady to cut my split ends. I don't what was in her mind, she immediately cut the hair in my back short. I wasn't aware of that until she brought all of my hair to the front. yes, i was shocked and speechless. All i could think of was to invent a time machine. How i wished real life was like editing pictures in photoshop, You can undo and redo things easily. 

Some people says i look better and fresher in shorter hair, some people still prefers my long hair.

Look at the bright side, at least i don't have split ends anymore.

Makati

On my Latest trip to manila, for graduation, i spent my Saturday night with these two lovely ladies. We had lunch at Korean fast food in Greenbelt 1, makati. This Korean Fast food is called Bon Chon. They have these amazing sweet and spicy fried chicken and chicken wings. The coating of the chicken is exceptional, Unlike KFC or McDonnalds chickens.

 My funny shaped Lipstick.

 oh btw, don't mind my new hair cut. :p

And finally, We had Japanese for dinner. I have my own favorite Japanese restaurant in Glorietta 4. It is actually a very simple restaurant from the out side. But once you have tasted the food, it is surprisingly good. The restaurant is called Jipan. Don't forget to order their unlimited healthy green tea.

I was searching on my computer, and i found this bunch of pictures i haven't uploaded for a long time. This was taken in last 2009. I helped my prof decorating a lobby of theater house with lots of butterfly made of colorful papers.

US Higher Education Fair 2011

Last wednesday, I went to an Education Fair held by US embassy, located in Hotel Kartika Candra. After finishing the so-called undergraduate school, I went to this event to look for chances of studying abroad, specifically in the US. Well, I've been looking around and asked if their school offered Masters degree in Art and design. Unfortunately, not all of them offer art  and design for Masteral and if they do, some of them don't offer a scholarship for, again, Masteral. It's so unfair that, us, artists are somehow being discriminated and forgotten. They only offer scholarships for those chemists, biologist, politics, et cetera. What i am trying to tell is that, artists are also brilliant, smart and bright, so give us scholarship too!

Well, on the bright side, going there and actually stealing brochures, pens and bottled water is actually fun. Thanks to my Partner in crime for taking and accompanying me all the way there.

I had quite a long discussion with this Troy University guy. My friend and i thought that his booth had the best logo design which made us come and asked for the brochures. (He took it off already in this picture) 

me: Hello, can i please have the brochure?

him: unfortunately, i cant.

me: huh? why?

him: Because i'm running out of brochures and tomorrow i still have to go to a school in Bandung.

me: that's too bad for me. (giving a puppy eyes)

him: if you want, you can go to airport because i have the whole box of brochures. The custom took it and won't let me get it.

me: huh?! how come? 

him: I have no idea, i have no problem in other countries, only in here. well, if you can get it for me, i'll give you a free t-shirt.

me: I don't want a free t-shirt. If i can get it for you, i want a free scholarship! (evil face)

him: -___________-"

That's why my Chinese friend called me a Chinese too, because I bargain or haggle like one (which i'm not). He didn't give me either a brochure or a scholarship, but he did give me a bookmark. 

Here's some brochures and pens i took home. I even took home fresh milk brochure.
