Day 02 - A Self Portrait from Way Back Ages and Now

Alright, alright! I am so not following instructions. I know the challenge said "a self portrait from way back ages" and the photo (L) surely wasn't taken jurassic years ago. BUT. Here's the thing: the emotion behind that photo (me obviously fresh from a session of drama queen class) is what seemed to me "a portrait from way back ages".

How Much I've Changed Since Then

That photo (L) was taken two or so years ago and during that not so O-fudgingly-K time, I was more of a comatose zombie so blithely occupied at being miserable. I was young... ermm, I was younger. Right, I was younger and was so in love - and well, was oh-so-very-ULTRA-MEGA stupid for thinking I was with the one already. I built my dreams around him and made plans with him. And then, just when you though life was going your way - BAM! Here's a pile of shit! Take that! Yeah right, fate decided to take a sudden turn and me, being the drama queen that I was, I said I was never going to love again. 

Ewwww! How very pure lu-odness! LOL.

Today, I am no longer that person in the left photo. Today, I am so much more like the one from the right picture. Though the physical changes aren't so drastic and obvious just yet, the optimism I have in life and love have changed a lot. I used to be obsessed at planning - today, I have come to appreciate the rewarding feelings of merriment in living life in spontaneity. 

Enough for the dramatic musings already! HAHA

So here, just so I can prove I am not that tad deviant, here's a photo of me from WAY BACK AGES.

Yes! That's me! back when cam-whoring and posing the narcissistic way were alien to me. =)

End of Day 02,

EU.

PS: I was supposedly planning to post each day's photo challenge at the end of the day but since I am going to fulfill my hospital duties for 3to11 shift until the 30th, I guess I am going to flood the dashboard with stuffs such as these every morning instead. Have a wonderful sun-shiny day! =)

Day 01 - A Faceless Self Portrait

Photoshop the date away pretty prettiest puh-leez? >_<

That date over there is a capital TOTALLYMAJORPHOTOSPOILER.

Lemme say that again: TOTALLYMAJORPHOTOSPOILER!

There. have I emphasized it enough?

Anyway, the date isn't right so let's leave that goofball flaw alone. 

This photo was taken a year ago during my little sissy's graduation.

There are three items in this faceless portrait: my lovely satin polka-dotted dress, my black purse and my first (and last - I guess?) whitegold ring with tiny details of white sapphire.

I especially adore that dress (which I only got to wear once!) because... well, I just love it! No reasons! Uh-huh?

That purse, I had it for like AGES. As in AGES. I don't get to use it these days since as you grow, your purse grows bigger as well.

That ring is a gift from mom - you'll never see me wearing the little darling now coz twas "taken back" by the giver. I am such a mess at keeping jewelries in their proper places and I've lost too many that asking mom to buy me new ones is such a herculean task. When I almost lost that ring, she decided that was the last jewelry she'll ever give me. insert ayyys of regret here =( =( =(

So now, to repair my shorn soul, I content myself with fancy accesories and funny how I never get to lose them!

See You on day 02!

lotsaloving,

EU.
