It's A Sheer Thing



I've rediscovered my love for this sheer, white Wilfred t-shirt with its asymmetrical zip going down the middle. I can almost guarantee that it'll be my go-to top for the Summer, if and when it decides to come...

RE: The Stacker







Found a bunch of these thin silver & gold rings laying around my room, have no clue where they're from (which personally, I think makes them a little bit more amazing) but all I know is that I found them at the right time (GGGB Trend Spotting #4: The Stacker) and that they'll be piled high on my fingers from here on in!

Do NOT bring cell phones to class (or put them away, and turn them off, if you must carry them). Also, do not surf the internet during classes, you will need to pay FULL attention in order to succeed this course.

One Left


04/07/2009: Tomorrow is the last one of my F.I.N.A.L.S!
(Fuck I Never Actually Learned this Shit)

Wish me luck so as to not end up looking stunned like Dat Kid From Cleveland.

As much as I am in love with her music, am I in love with her style.

"Don't you got any jobs? are you not like working hard?"
I've been really into Lykke Li lately, and this unlikely combination of her laid-back voice with the beat of "Everyday I'm Hustlin'" just made her that much cooler.

GGGB Weekend Wrap-Up #8: Textual Healing

Now for an update...

Friday night was spent watching another Prestige practice, it was the perfect opportunity for me to test out the camera even more (as if I hadn't enough already that night), and I have to admit that taking sick action shots is difficult. I still have a good feeling about this and am confident enough in my ability to learn so that as the season progresses, one will notice the hockey photos only getting better from here. Us girls may not be on the ice, but we all have a part on the team! Photographer, Gatorade Girl, The Bringer of food/candy/snacks, and any others that may arise or be placed upon us unknowingly throughout the season.

Our boys' first official game: Tuesday, May 5th 2009.
Come cheer on Prestige Worldwide-Wide-wide!

I'm supposed to be studying... Moving on, something very unnecessary and annoying is occurring in my life thru constant text messages, calls and rendezvous', those in which are creating stress that I'm sure at this point in time (finals) I do not need right now. If I knew you were going to be this much of a hassle, I wouldn't have done this for you in the first place. There shouldn't be a fine line between "business" and a "favor for a friend"; but thank you for confirming that I would much rather have the former than the latter, as I don't think I'd like to call you a friend anymore.

"Hustle Of The Year"

In preparation for Block Week, the professor of the course that I'm taking feels the need to send us daily e-mails. The one I got this morning went like this: "Block Week is rigorous. Plan on following a routine or system of attending class each day, postponing television, outside employment and social engagements until after the course, and getting good sleeps and eats."

FML during Block Week.

Mom's finally home from the Philippines/Las Vegas, Dad left this morning for Phoenix again. Wish they would take us with them, but I'm not bitter because most of the time we can't book off work or miss school and so it's our own circumstances that prevent us from being able to go. But last night, Mom came into my room asking whether I'd be able to take a week off in July, and another two weeks off in December. Um, hell yes I would be able to and if not I would do all that I could to make it possible, if it means going on vacay!!! Nothing's confirmed, but let's just say family trips may be in the works, which would undoubtedly satisfy the repetitive words of "I need a vacation" that come out of my mouth every day.

Hopefully that should be enough text to break up the slew of visual overload on GGGB, back to studying!

i'm dying. these are genius.
possibly THE dopest "Dope Tees" i've yet to post.

Couldn't Get Enough



"T-shirt by Raquel Allegra."
I'm thinking of shredding this shirt from Zara, but I'm a little scared I'll do it wrong and wreck it, which would cause me great grief (oh, good grief Charlie Brown) because it's one of my favorite shirts. Hmm... gotta test my shredding skills out on some old rags first and I'll let you know how it turns out.

Sooo killer. I'm especially in love with the first two, perhaps possibly because they look like x-rays.

A New Beginning



Scratch that, my REBELlious phase starts now.

Good Boy!

"Aw, I'm sad. You're better at it than I am." - me, upon looking at the photos taken by my boyf. Hahaha, am I jealous? Nah. I'm happy that I have someone who shares this interest with me, even more so at the fact that he's good at it.


Ok... this one's a lil blurry..








His Ever hoodie and Tako. What could be more comfortable?

GGGB Trend Spotting No. 4: The Stacker


Ring stacking. If you aren't familiar with this playful idea of layering your rings, I suggest you discover doing so, via Iosselliani's collection. The outcome is one of luxury, with a touch of creativity people are bound to notice. Plus, they make it easy for you, these come pre-stacked.




Be sure to check out the rest of their collection too, their jewelry is to die for!

First Batch, Half A Dozen


"I'm gunna be your muse, aren't I." HAHAHA, duh.


Randomly saw NYLON Guy's in a gas station, picked the issue up for him. (Cause BF'S/GF's do that for eachother ♥ hehe)


Kinda blurry (OOPS!), but I spy my style staple AA lamé leggings, the boyf's guitar, a stuffed penguin I got him for our first Christmas, and a Graduation 2006 frame, sans pictures?...


Special edition Dunny, paired up with a turnable set via a Kinder Surprise (I know right?! Siiick)


Photobooths, Johnny Cupcakes tissue. Memories on a DIY corkboard that completely lines a wall of his room.


City barbwire. Errr, city skyline in a moving vehicle.

A Girl's Best Accessory



Forget the rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings...

Canon's are the new, best accessory.



And just how cute are her multi-colored nails?!

Project Rebel = Accomplished

I'm sure by now you guys are probably as sick as I am of hearing the term "Project Rebel". I for one was most frustrated with the term solely for the fact of it being just a "Project"; something that was in the works, something that I was in the process of completing. Well, despite it taking about a month and a half, as of yesterday, I am now the proud owner of a Canon Rebel XSi. My very first DSLR; this should be a whole new, definitely ongoing, learning and experimenting, "Project" in itself. So maybe the term was fitting. Nonetheless, I'm excited to have GGGB as a means to share and capture Life's moments with you guys! Be excited with me! That being said:





Don't all photographers take shots like these?

"The Man Behind The Camera", "Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder" type thing...



Yeah, well that should be a good start...

"Unpacking Porn"





finally finally finally!
