14, 17, 18 :3

It’s been 5 days since I turned 18. Wow. I’m really that old now huh? (People who are older than me might be throwing tomatoes in my direction already) XD

I never realized how much the word, Birthday could affect me. And adding the word happy could be an understatement to what I just felt.

Truth is, I used to not really be in much of a hype whenever my birthday’s fast approaching since I started college. One, because, I wasn’t with my family and two, read number one. I guess, I’m always used to just celebrating with the people closest to me at my home or somewhere near it. I just feel safer there but the moment that I celebrated my first birthday away from home, I realized that it’s not so bad. In fact, I’m very lucky to have made great friends in college and I’m very touched that even with distance, there are still those who reach out just to wish me well for my birthday.

This year, I guess is extra special. The minute day turned into night on the eve of my birthday, I’ve been receiving a variety of early greetings.

One of my best friends sent me a voice message with her singing the birthday song to me. Aww, that was so unexpected and touching. I actually cried when I heard it :’)

Plus, some of my cosplay friends even called me, at midnight! XD

I gotta alotta texts beginning midnight until the day ended, but I really made an effort to reply to each and every one of them. :D Plus, I did the same with the wall posts! XD Gosh, it took me, at least 2 hours to thank everyone via FB! XD

But the sweetest thing that happened to me that day was when my closest friends surprised me with a dozen roses and my favorite, Stargazer flower. They even gave it to me while I was on my way towards the Main Building :’)) I was surprised and really touched. I mean, they woke up early just to plan the whole set-up! An aga ko raw kasi magising. Pati delaying tactic ko nakakatuwa. I-enumerate yung laman ng pencil case ko hahahaha!

I am really at lost for words. You guys know me so well. Your gifts were all so personal. I especially loved your letters. Thank you so much, SAM REYES, ISSA D’BAYAN, LUZ REYES, JANN MARK CAPALUNGAN, JAN RAYMUND BULANADI and MIGS GUTIERREZ. <’’3

Thanks for hanging out with me in Red Box Greenbelt. Na-disCOWVER natin na namemorize na natin yung H.S musical routines XD lol! Pati mga K-pop pinatulan na natin.

(P.S I have issues with the Red Box branch there XD)

Seriously all I can say is, I don’t think my Birthday could’ve been Happy without you guys. You indulged me with too many wonderful things and I appreciate all of them but what I treasure the most is the love that you guys have shown me. Thank You So Much.

And Yes, the bully is now 18. Hollaaaaaa!

A message to the other birthday girl :D

SAM REYES,

I won’t make this long because I’ve already told you what you need to hear but long story short, I LOVE YA! <''3 The effort we placed into planning and preparing your celebration and gifts do not match up to the friendship you’ve given us. I will never forget how happy you looked last Sept. 17, I hope I could see that sweet smile often. You’re so CUTE! :3>

CUPCAKE

By faye rayos

When lips touch your outer shell,

It is first their eyes that taste the lushness of the toppings.

Greatly fixating upon the small masterpiece in nibbles,

Slowly eating away the entirety and letting each moist piece,

Slide effortlessly down their throats.

Their eyes grow wider,

For the simple looking treat with minimal outer display and color,

Came dancing on their tongues like a raging, blazing, sugary fire,

Consuming every inch until the last morsel parches.

It is sweet.

The cupcake, oh so, simple,

Was indeed, exquisite.

(There’s an underlying interpretation to this poem. Di lang for chibogs XD haha)

Love,

Pancakes :3

Off to work!

RANT :Don't sell me make-up if doesn't work on YOU >:D

WARNING: THIS IS A RANT POST

The Ish with Salesladies

I hate the “You don’t look rich” / “You look like a kid with no money” look with matching up and down motion of the eyes whenever you walk inside a store.

Duh, even millionaires dress down. Sa tingin niyo ba e hindi rin nagsasando at shorts ang Presidente at si Henry Sy? Syempre naman oo, yun nga lang, baka Hanesway o Ferragamo ang label. Pero, simple parin ang panamit nila.

I have experienced this a few times already and even observed the same thing happen to others especially when I have no make-up on and I’m just wearing a plain shirt plus jeans (they say I look like a highschool student even though I’m already a college sophomore >.<, I beg to differ.) Recently, I entered a beauty specialty store in SM San Lazaro (I don’t want to drop the name of the store but I will describe it) where amidst all the green wall paper are three thirty-something ladies who are inappropriately combing their hair and doing their make-up in public, amidst customers. I didn’t mind this and just thought, fine, the mall just opened half-an hour ago or so… So, I went to look around the store until I was the only one left. When I decided to ask the price of the eyeliner that me and my ate was dying to have, I politely came near the salesladies and politely asked, “Excuse me po, how much po yung Kajal or Kajal (Kay-jal or Ka-djal) eyeliner?” Sabay bungisngis.

Lady 1 raises a brow and pauses, “Ha? Ano yun? Wala kaming ganun.”

I wince and look at the three stare at me indifferently. I point to the display INFRONT of the store where my desired product is being blatantly advertised. (I even opened the testers).
Me, “Uh… ayun po oh. Yung mga nakadisplay po XD”

Lady 2, “Ahhhhhh. *scoff* yun pala e. I ba kasi sinabi mo!” Sabay smart-ass expression.

Lady 3, “Khhhhaaaaaahdyal kasi. Hindi Kajal. Kaa-dyal (magcocorrect ka nga, inconsistent pa. Mali pa. grrrrrr, ano ba talaga ate?)”

Me in a less happy mood, trying my best not to frown, “Ah, sorry. :/ Anyways, how much nga po?”

Lady 1 scoffs again and directs me near where the products are and lifts the black eyeliner, “Ito po e 600 plus (I forgot the exact amount).” Mejo (ang jeje, I know, fine Medyo,)sarcastic/amused pa nga yung tone e.

“Ah, ok. 3 colors lang po siya no?” I was reaching for the liner when she winced and placed the liner back. My eyes shot wide and I was very much insulted now.

Eto pero ang pamatay.

Lady 1, “Bakit po ba ma’am? :D”

Daaahhhhh, siguro kasi bibili ako diba?

I was really insulted now, I had a silent debate between what I should respond to her.

A. WHAT’S IT TO YOU? MY REASON TO ASK THE PRICE OF YOUR DAMN LINER IS NOT YOUR BUSINESS.
B. DUH, MAYBE I PLAN ON BUYING.
C. BECAUSE I THINK YOU NEED IT. AND IF IT’S THE ONE YOU’RE ACTUALLY USING, THEN I’D RATHER NOT BUY ;P
D. Taas kilay sabay sabi, “Why is there a need for you to be so rude and annoying? I’m a customer, you’re a saleslady. Do the math.”

(And yes, when I am freakishly mad, I speak in perfect English XD)

Luckily, I didn’t respond with any of these statements and instead, I couldn’t help but drop my smile and put on a black expression while saying in a low tone, “OK, thanks.”

Then I left. Nawalan ako ng gana bumili.

I told my sister who was actually the one who was most interested in purchasing the liner of what happened. She was furious and she wanted to confront the people there. I was able to convince her to do otherwise. I refused to let us stoop down to their level.

My ate even said that the next time that we’ll both enter the store, she’d buy not just the whole liner but the whole set for the both of us (lucky for me) and remind those Bs of what they did to me.

We have nothing against the franchise but I just wish that the people of the higher-ups would make it a point not to only ensure that their employees look presentable on the outside (di nga rin e) but also make sure to make over the attitude of their employees.

Ladies, develop a filter. Having a bit of tact kills no one. It saves them.
I say, if you can’t save face, save voice.

Don’t blurt out prejudiced statements just because of how people look. If you do, they’ll come looking for you with a formal complaint.

Just a quick fact: I wanted to use the eyeliner for my Death (The Sandman) cosplay and my ate was supposed to use it for her Lady Gaga look. But now, I'm considering other options >:D

(No images for this one, I won't waste effort for it.)

Who is the Eyeliner-wearing Bully?

Hi there, this is Faye’s/shiori/loligoth13’s (dA)/insertpersonalnicknamehere’s personal blog account intended for public viewing by friends and enthusiasts alike.

And to answer your question, Yes. I am Eccentric. Sue Me. (And no dufus, my name is not Eccentric. Read opening statement).

I am also, eclectic/hyperactive/weird/the stereotypical control freak/ the nice girl with a devilish grin and legendary temper /emoticon abuser XD (see?) XD and all around bully. Seriously, ask my seatmate >:D

And with Eccentricism (I like inventing words for convenience, thank you very much) or what not, comes the superficial need to become highly aware of how one appears.

Then again, if vanity is a sin, then call me damned. (I’m pretty sure after you read my first entry that some of you are already plotting my sentence >:D. Get ready, ‘cause I’m not kidding about the vain and eccentric part).

I tend to get distracted easily by the most subtle of objects and tend to change the topics instantly because I forget what I-oh look! A dragonfly!
Where was I?
Ahem…

In case some of you haven’t noticed, I talk/write a lot. As in A LOT. In fact, I’ve probably posted and said enough words that could fill the Great Wall of China (You guys should try it sometimes, I heard Mount Everest is already half-full).

Basically here’s what you have to know:

Faye. BS Psychology. UST. Filipino-Spanish-Italian-Supernatural entity. Writer. Speaker. Cosplayer. Rookie Photographer. Photo Manipulator. Random. Blah. Blah. Blah…

P.S

Dear B4 and P2,

JR,

Issachu,

Sige na nga, Migs,
KOKEY. Sige, tawa ka na ng biglaan. Sige na, go. :D
That’s all for now :3

Oh and if you’ve reached this far, it means that hindi ka pa nag-aaral. Wushuu, wag ka na magdeny >:D J-K lang.
