Oh My Janey

1/52: Princess

1of52bw

She’s Miki, a monicker for my family’s energy bunny. She’s Princess Mikaela, but she’s really too rowdy and boisterous to actually be called a princess. But she makes us happy, she makes us laugh. She’s a delight to be with especially when she argues that she’d rather be called Robin, Robin Padilla. She has a puppy named Blackjack, which she endearingly calls Tuta. She has an infectious laughter, and she eats like a 10-year-old. She’s everyone’s favorite.

This year, I want to take photographs. Doing 365 is out of the question so here’s a shot for 52 weeks of Black and White.

I know that fireworks and firecrackers are bad and all, but New Year’s Eve won’t be complete without them. Call us idiots for still sending lights to the sky every year, but I doubt we’d be stopping. Let’s just hope we’ll always be safe despite being hard-headed!

New Year’s Eve was a blast, as usual, but I noticed that we seem to be getting fewer and fewer. But still, being with my family at the end of the year is always something to be thankful for. 2012 was amazing, but I’m pretty sure that 2013 have better things in store for me, my family and friends. I seriously cannot wait.

Day Five in Seoul (Part 1)

It has been more than 3 months since I’d been to Korea and sad to say, but I miss it already. I think I started to miss the moment I boarded the plane. But try as I might, I couldn’t stop our last day in Seoul from coming.

We wanted to make the most out of our last day so we decided to have an early start. We didn’t exactly have an early during the previous days. Heh. So while my parents were packing up, my sister and I decided to visit Sungkyunkwan University and have a last look around the neighborhood. I don’t know why we had to wait for the last minute to do it!

It was a lovely neighborhood maybe because it’s thriving with students. There are shops that sell clothes and little cafes and humble restaurants specializing in local dishes. In case anyone’s interested in visiting the neighborhood and visiting Sungkyunkwan University (especially you Sungkyunkwan Scandal fans!), the nearest subway station is Hyewa! I’m not sure which bus you can take, though, since we didn’t take the bus. For an exact instructions on how to get there, you can just ask around. Haha!
