Color me up!

I am so fond of buying colorful things. From crayons to make-up to nail polishes.

Since I was a kid, I have been collecting Crayola crayons from 8 pieces to 120 pieces. But, I wasn't really using those crayons; it was only for display purposes. haha. I would play with them everyday, memorize all the names of the colors and then my sisters would give me a test on it. They would show me the color (hiding the names of the colors) and I have to guess the correct names of the crayons they have showed me. And yes, I have guessed them all correctly.

When I was in high school, my friends and I loved going to parties, soirées, and the annual dance events including the much-awaited prom night and grad ball. We also love applying make-up and getting our pictures taken. And that was the start of my make-up collection. I would buy different shades of blushes, lipsticks, eye shadows, and eyeliners, different fruity flavors of lip balms and lip glosses, and different kinds of make-up brushes. It was pure bliss. Until now, I still enjoy collecting make-up and would even want to have the complete kit full of make-up. Yes, the big silver kits; the one you would see when you go to salons.

And now, nail polish has been added to my collections. I would buy different colors and shades and would apply it to my nails. I have actually practiced the perfect way of applying it on my own nails that sometimes I would change the color of my nails depending on the colors of the clothes I would be wearing the next day. But remember, you should let your nails rest every two weeks.

Haircuts.

I love getting my hair done. Getting it colored, digital perms and layers. It makes me feel really happy that I would want to pose for a picture. But hey, I really love taking pictures. Haha. Vain.

My friends always love my hair because it's the "commercial-type". Meaning, the kind of hair you'd usually see on tv commercials (Philippine TV Commercials, that is). Long, shiny black hair. And I have always loved that too.

But, I wanted a new look. I started dyeing my hair from purple to mahogany to burgundy / reddish brown. I love it! I love colors! I would even like to try some outrageous colors like orange or pink. Haha. And for the style, I started having layers and digital perms. I usually go to Piandre for haircuts. But now, I have been going to this Korean salon, Tony and Jackey, to try out more hairstyles that would suit me.
