I slept at 2 am due to some stress and UBE moment with my friend Charles, and woke up at 7:45am. I had my piano lessons that day, and thankfully I managed to finish my Physical Science Project (Photoframe with a geological event) after all that OC-ness about the info part and all, the outcome was nice if i do say so myself.
My Tita and my cousin picked me up for my gown fitting at the House of Laurel in Makati. When I entered the magical fashion house, I was excited that ladies and gentlemen was a fashion house, couture, fashion madness! I loved it! There waiting for me at the changing area were dresses designed by one of the Philippine Fashion Gods (in my opinion). The first dress I tried on was a black sequined gown that was very beautiful the thing is, the color was too common for Prom. They gave me a pair of heeled shoes to try on, btw. After that I tried an orange gown (same design) but it was too overwhelming for me, the emerald-colored dress was divine, there was only one thing, it looked to lasallian for my tita's taste and mine. The amethyst and pink gown (same design) was so pretty, it was playful, and young-looking on me, so we kept that as an option, at that moment where in I left the changing room and showed the dress to my tita, I saw a man wearing jeans and a black polo, it was the designer himself, Rajo Laurel, and he actually talked to me, I was really starstruck when I saw him, so I just smiled back, I wish I had a picture with him-he was really friendly, and tall! Okay back to the story, the "princessy" amethyst dress was so cute, it really felt like I was a princess, I thought about the over-all look will be in none less than 10 seconds its was really beautiful. The last dress, I really do agree with the saying "save the best for last" because of today. It was a blue "jersey" 5 ways gown, It really looked elegant and mature for me. It gave me comfort, style, grace, elegance, and curves!(hahahaha just had to say it!) After deciding that that was the dress that I was destined to be with, we decided to think of accessories. The placed a Bib necklace (also by R.L.) it was really royal like, "I felt like Satine when the Duke placed that diamond necklace on her neck.) It looked a little heavy when people stare at it, so we decided to go simple and place dangling earrings and a brooch on the knot at the side of my waist, I really looked mature in it. We didn't buy the accessories but we bought the dress, and that is more than enough for me.
And the first thing my tita said to me was, You're gonna have to wear 5" heels. I cursed in my head in thought to that, but I didn't mind since I can actually act like a teenager. We went to Rockwell, it has really been while since I've been there, my parents are all about the distances when it comes to going somewhere, and the thrifty type too. We entered the mall in search for the perfect pair of silver shoes for me, but it was an unsuccessful mission. Tita gave us what to order for her in Cibo, my cousin and I kept repeating the food orders in our head and walk straight to the restaurant. We ordered what she told us to order and my cousin and I just ordered a carbonara to share.
The order came, and we both attacked the spinach dip with focaccia bread. I swear it is To Die For, we ate our food and my tita gave me dangling earrings that had crystals that change in color and lent me a brooch, which was so cool. I wish I knew how they make it. Anyway, we left the restaurant and went back home, they dropped me off at my house. My other tita, gave me shoes (4"-4.5") for my prom, I am very thankful for that.
It was a really fun day .The Projects just made it stressful for me. Once again. Groupwork.
