photo possibilities + body clock change



i meant to do a post last night but i had to watch and take care of Harry at the hospital --- he got admitted for a bacterial infection and has had a fever on and off. he's doing a bit well now, if you should ask. he still has a slight fever but he's no longer having chills.

the photos here were taken at one part of the office area. the place is teeming with possibilities and i can't wait to shoot in all areas possible. the office is located in an advent center which looks like a really big house and our room is on the first door. aside from the interesting areas to shoot outside, the building has a terrace with talisay trees in the background and white wooden panels on the walls. on the way up to the second floor is a wooden staircase, some antique stuff like old radios, typewriter and antique sofas. the the center is on a compound which also has an italian restaurant --- haven't eaten there thought as they say it's quite expensive. good thing the aroma of the italian food doesn't reach the office because one thing i have discovered on a 'day' job is that it definitely has heightened up my appetite. if you've notice, i've gained weight in these photos. 

i think i've gained about 5 lbs. i just can't stop eating! i think i get hungry every 3-4 hours which is not good for me because i easily gain weight. although i am not on a strict diet as i eat whatever i want like sinful desserts and all the meat i can eat, i try though to choose food items that are healthier like brown rice, whole wheat bread, lean meat or char-grilled all-meat burgers instead of the ones found in fast food chains with meat extenders in the form of eggplants that easily absorb oil. shifting to a day job has certainly shifted my hormones and body clock too and so far, i am still adjusting. hope this adjustment transitions faster because i might no longer fit into my clothes! (or the denim levi's high-waist cut-offs i thrifted last month which i have yet to wear! buhu...)

okay, so the following photos below are a result of a gay friend who has worked for Drawingboard for more than a year but was only encouraged to be gayer because i started working their too. we decided to wear heels this day and maybe on all other days in the office. you might find his face to be familiar to you --- meet Armand Alforque in black booties:

striped oversized cardigan - thrifted
white tank top - thrifted
grey skinny jeans - thrifted
black peep-toe booties - celine (gifted from harry)
pink suede belt - big sister's closet
robot necklace - downtown find
rings: black rectangle stone + white round stone - props
work watch - swatch

Aww, you are cute as always! :) I love your carefree style and attitude. I am so happy for you that you have found a creative outlet! Yay for new ventures! I don't remember that it was too long ago when you resigned your other job and now you are back to being a working gal :p Such a workaholic! haha I'm jk! The area to take pics is very cool! :D Looking forward to fashion posts!

And your coworker is hilarious! I see ppl in San Fran walking with heels on a day to day basis! But seeing it in pics is interesting! :)

I absolutely love that little robot necklace! Very cute. I hope Harry is feeling better.

And he can pull off the heels. I once knew this gay guy who was really old and fat and wore heels... didn't exactly work on him, hehe.

Love that robot necklace, it is so cute. And I can totally relate with the being hungry all the time. I am pretty sure something is wrong with me but in my case it's any sugary food-cupcakes, pastries, scones- all that good stuff. And the scale keeps going up...
