Gathered all the clips I shot from my Bohol trip last December 2016 into one video to share here. Bohol was nothing but amazing and I am truly blessed to have seen its beauty. Every place has its own story to unfold, if only I could tell it all to you here I would but it's better to just keep you hanging for you to go see and discover it yourself. It was really unplanned I must say because me and my family had no idea what there is to see except for the famous "Chocolate Hills". Good thing there was a local tour guide who lead us to some pretty good places. First day was packed, we were able to got to 6 different tourist spots. Second day was island hopping and it was breathtaking. What's the scorching heat when you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the islands we went to. Third day, we explored Panglao Island. Lastly, fourth day, we mostly stayed in our hotel because we finished the tour way to early than expected. Then we bid our goodbyes to Bohol in dawn for our flight.
I will be sharing some photos I took in the next few posts.
I finally got around to blogging again. After a long hiatus, which I know is now normal here in my blog, I get to post some of which was taken last year or 2 to 3 months ago. Here are a bunch taken in January. I have been loving that "film camera" feel to photos for quite some time now and you might see them in the next few posts.
Here's a long overdue memoir of my overnight stay in the beach with my family. It's the little moments like this that I cherish the most. With wind brushing on my skin, the sound of the sea at night and and my feet resting on pool water, it was all just refreshing and lovely.

Starting the new year right with a new outfit post and blog look. I hope everyone's having a good and cold January. Everyday has been beautiful waking up to that cool breeze I have always loved. January will always be my favorite month because it calls for a fresh new beginning. There will be a lot of things ahead of me this 2017. Many things and changes will occur in my life and I am hoping for the best. I trust that God has great plans for me.
Updating you with some shots from my so-called long weekend break last October 28 to November 2, 2016. We didn't do much, it was just an overnight trip to a nearby beach resort. And now, here I am counting the days left of this term daydreaming of the things I want to do on my vacation which I know that 70% of it won't really happen. Will be posting more photos soon and by "soon" I mean on December, hopefully.
Being found breathless lately with how fast time goes by. These are the times where adult decisions needs to be made. I'm not growing any younger for my age is not included in the teen years anymore. Can't believe that in just a year I'll be graduating in a course I now can confirm I am happy and contended with. To tell the truth, it took me 3 years to accept that I am a Fashion student. My heart was telling me 'Yes you love Fashion' but my mind says 'No' because many people will look down on you for not a lot succeed in this field. For 3 years this was my dilemma, looks small for many but for me it's a big deal. My College course directs me to the career path I am going to take so for me it is something that really needs to be thought of very well. Many incoming College students go through the same problems. We keep on creating questions in our minds. At that time, when I was really confused, God spoke to me telling that I just need to trust Him. I entered College even though part of me was unhappy. During God's process of having me realize His plans, I learned to accept that this is what He wants for me and that this is where I will excel and it was the truth. I am now excited for the great things there is in store for me in the incoming years.
2016 has so far been good to me. Even this view is leaving me breathless. These bunch was taken in January where I had the chance to go on a 2 day stay in the beach with my family. All I can say is God is truly an amazing creator.
Here's a new segment I'll be doing here on the blog whenever I feel inspired. I'm hoping I get to do this more often as I can share to you random things that has been playing a big part in the on-going development of my aesthetic. I can say that my aesthetic changes a lot depending on my mood and the things that surround me.
Maybe I could somehow add updates with current happenings and events lately in my life but for now here are some snaps I took. I can't believe that it only took me half an hour to edit and layout everything. This segment has been on my mind for quite a long time now but I just can seem to find time to execute them. And now, I am happy that it is coming to life here on this virtual space of mine.
Oh, and in less than a week my term break will end. I wasn't even able to live and breathe my 1 month break because of the things that has been keeping me busy and obviously it is not this blog. I can't promise anything but I'll try my best to update more. There are still a lot of ideas I have going in my mind right now that I am hoping I get to share with everyone here.

Taking a step further with this blog by sharing my life story and how "JUST KEEP DREAMING" began. In the beginning, my 16 years old self enjoyed collecting magazines patronizing just one periodic publication and from there my interest in Fashion developed. It was Candy Magazine that helped me discover more of what I want to accomplish in the future. The magazine featured a lot of articles not only about Fashion but motivating teenagers like me at the time to be fearless and reach for their dreams. At the back portion of the magazine was where they featured bloggers and style icons. I would always go to my browser and look for their blogs and check for new Fashion updates. Seeing and reading how these bloggers enjoyed sharing their love for Fashion made me want to make one for myself. I wanted a platform wherein I can share my journey filled with exploring myself and love for Fashion.
I was determined to create a blog not even considering some factors I should be knowledgeable of. At the time I was the girl who had no idea about how a blog works, no photography skills, was not even good at English words and the list goes on. What I had that time was the guts and perseverance to do something I know I'd be happy about. I did some research, learned how to create a blog and edit photos with the help of Google. My mom then suddenly thought of buying a DSLR camera so I have now crossed that out of the list of my problems. When I first did a blog post I knew my English was not so good and then I fearlessly clicked "publish". I had my sisters as my critics which was good for me because at least I knew where my mistakes was then. It helps to have the people who knows you better than anyone to judge your work, giving you their best and most honest opinion. This blog has been up and running for years now and I haven't regretted owning it. I am still learning and am having fun with how this is turning out for me.
This was rather a HEAVY post but nonetheless it was just fulfilling to post this up here in my blog. There are still a lot to talk about related to a topic such as this. I still have a lot of things in mind to share here. I hope that you guys won't get bored and just only enjoy getting to know me more.
For years now, many haven't understood the real story why this virtual space of mine is up and running, maybe because I haven't formally explained it yet. I am sorry because I thought I was already giving the people the impression as to why I own a blog.
Starting now, from every post I publish, I will be slowly sharing my reasons with its backstories for everyone to comprehend how much this blog means to me.
This is a very big step for me but I know that along the way all my fears and scares will pave away. This little space where I share my interest won't only be about Fashion but many things more.

I can now finally declare that another term has ended and I am now currently on a week long vacation(not really, it's just 5 days). Too much school work has got into me that I desperately and deservingly need a break. For me, a break means catching up to television series, do photo shoots and blog posts; and SLEEP, things that I am not able to do while on school.
There is nothing wrong with taking a little break. WE NEED IT!. No one can endure to much work most especially in my college which has a fast-paced curriculum. I'm not ranting because I'm actually enjoying every bit of it. I just can't ignore the times where stress is present in every subject.
More posts is underway, hoping that you'd find them interesting and inspiring. Also, there will be times wherein this blog cannot be visited. Some changes will be made most especially now that I am on my term break.
