Yuri Turned 3, I Graduated, and Other Stories

Hi everyone! Happy Monday! As what is becoming usual for me nowadays, I don't have a proper post prepared again. I'm just so busy, and while I'm thankful, I don't want to neglect responsibilities!

I actually just came back from a vacation, which turned quite ugly for me midway because I had food poisoning. I know, right? And all I ate were the same with what the rest of our group ate. I will surely write about our adventures and misadventures in Baguio, Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte, Manila, and Cavite soon.

(For my friends in Manila, I only set foot there for hours and most of them were spent inside a car.)

Oh I will write about the trip and every important thing that I need to write about. Just as soon as I get to finish everything I need to do today! Reality surely didn't waste its time making its presence felt.

You see, the week before our vacation, I didn't receive important emails and didn't even receive a single email from my regular client. So I wasn't very productive that week.

However, during the trip, a barrage of important emails came crashing in. My client emailed me about a change in our strategy, I got several blog invitations and offers, and I even got a job inquiry and an invitation for interview. I had no choice but to respond and say I will be available to handle their concerns as soon as I'm back in good ole Davao. (My client knows I'm on vacation though.)

But really, I was like, where were you when I was bored and idle? Where were you?! Just kidding.

On Dresses and Milestones

I love wearing dresses. Well, I don't wear dresses too often nowadays (because it feels cold), but they're always my first choice.

The thing about dresses is that, for women, they usually remind us of a special occasion. I don't know about you but I think I celebrated almost all the important occasions of my life wearing a dress! For example, yesterday, I read that the UPCAT results are now out. How exciting for new Iskos and Iskas! I was reminded not of my first day as a UP student but of my graduation. I, of course, was wearing a dress:

Apparently, it's hard to find your angle when you have to take a pic with the Oblation. Harhar. Same goes for the dress. I'm sad that the photos I have with Oblation don't give justice to the dress. Why don't I have a decent photo on my Graduation Day ba?

Anyway, the reminiscing led me to look for a graduation dress. It's not that I don't like what I wore. Personally, I prefer classic designs. However, I can see a couple of things I want to alter like a deeper neckline and longer sleeves. Wait, what neckline does UP allow? Okay, so maybe just a slightly deeper neckline.

If I were to graduate this year, what will I wear? I found this cute dress on topswedding.com:

I think this graduation dress is pretty enough. I love the material and I dig the neckline. The color's also perfect for the ceremony (UP requires cream-colored dresses). However, since UP gives strict requirements, I think it'd have to be altered to have sleeves and a longer hem. It's a good thing the dresses on the website are tailored and not off-the-rack.

Hmm, I wonder when I would get to wear a tailored dress again? :-)
