It's Hidden.

I do not really sketch all the time, 

I am not a total artist. 

I can not make a portrait or an art in just a wink like how the passionate artists do,

 not literally but, metaphorically.

I  don't even know how I end up finishing the sketches, well, let's say pleasing enough to the eyes.

To be honest, I just discovered this talent of mine, last year (2012). 

My first attempt of sketching resulted and looked like a caricature. 

I wasn't confident enough to show it to my friends, but then, glad they liked it.

You know that feeling, when they actually recognized who's in your drawing? ☺

(Sorry about the low quality-photos, I just used my camera phone for these that's why.)

WHO'S WHO

• The one with the inverted photo, is my brother. 
• The only girl is my elementary best friend (I just hope we're still best friends until now.)
• The guy with a crucifix necklace, he's a special friend of mine. 

These drawings above can be found on the pages of my wonder doodle book, 

'twas given to me by Sandy (follow her on Everything Sandy) on my 18 birthday. 

-Yepp, she knows me that well.

(Again,  I'm not used to sketch pads - I'll try it next time, tho)

My hand does not always work and create nice drawings. (Righty)

 It has to feel the "artist aura" first before it actually sketch its way to express itself or just to kill boredom.

-I'm weird like that. 

I'm an artsy person, Yes.

 - I am Right brained.

HARBOUR SQUARE

One of the nicest place to go If you just want to hang out, chill and party after a long day from work or school.

(2012) Retrieved from: happyinmanila.multiply.com

 It is best to go and visit the place when the sun is about to set. The lights surrounding the Coconut trees that lines the walkway and the restaurants beside the Bay of Manila adds to the seaside ambiance. There are live bands, more than a dozen of restaurants, and occasional night bazaars making it a good hangout place for friends, couples and family.

It is located along the Roxas Boulevard in Pasay City. Near Star City, one of the most famous amusement parks in Manila, and along the side of Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP Complex).

Friends and I went to a bar located inside the square.
It's called JSA 

There, we stayed and had fun. Celebrating Valentines with your friends is just epic!  

We've been planning to do this and we're all glad we finally had the chance to do so. 

We set rules before leaving Dasmarinas

• Drink responsibly
• When someone offers you a drink, do not, I said, do not accept it. 
• Do not give away your number If ever a stranger approached you and asked for it.
• Never leave the table without anyone, (according to a friend, there were incidents that some people put drugs in the drinks.)

So, there, the place was so alive, music was loud, everyone was dancing and singing along with the music at the same time.

The Story of St. Valentine

02- 14- 13

So Today's Valentine's day huh?

When hearts are everywhere and RED is all over the place. Malls are crowded, vacation places and  fancy restaurants are fully booked, and probably motels and hotels are, too. Holding hands while walking, blushing faces, "i love you's" everywhere, and smell of the roses and perfume because dissolved particles or molecules move from a more concentrated area to a less concentrated area, or what we called diffusion. (Nerd alert*)  People are indeed, happy and in love, specially t♥day.

Bet you've once wondered... Why celebrate Valentine's Day? Who is Valentine anyway?
And for sure, you would think that the story behind Valentine's day is a "happy" story. It's actually not.
Curious? Let me tell you about the story behind it...

Valentine is a priest. He lives in Rome during the third century. That time, the place was ruled by an emperor Claudius.

The emperor wanted to build a big army. He wanted every men to join his army. Unfortunately, only few men applied because most of the men don't want fight and it is enough reason for them to not leave their families and loved ones. Emperor Claudius was furious. He thought that If marriages continue, his plan won't be possible. That time on he decided to not allow any more marriages.

Since Valentine's a priest, one of his favorite things to do is to marry couples. And for him, the emperor's idea is just crazy. Even after the emperor passed the law, he continued marrying couples, secretly. Yes. Just him, the bride, and the groom inside a candlelit room.

One day, while he whispers the words of the ceremony, footsteps were heard from the outside. Good thing the couple escaped. But he was caught. He was thrown to jail and the emperor proclaimed that his punishment was death. He tried to stay calm though.

During the imprisonment, people visit him just to throw flowers and notes to his window. Notes, saying that they agree to the priest's decision to continue marrying couples, even if it's against the emperor's will. They wanted him to know that, they too, believe in Love. One of them was the daughter of the jail guard, who's always there to visit and talk to him even for hours.

The day came that he's to die, he left his friend a note saying, "Love from your Valentine"

And from that day on, people continue to spread the love and exchange love messages on Valentine's day. St. Valentine died on February 14 269 A.D - That, until now, people remember.

And hey, for you, Dear Emperor Claudius,
now you know, Love can not be beaten!


Love and Friendship, the ingredients of Valentine's day. ♥

Happy Valentines Day to y♥u!

till next post.

I notice everything.

Well said.
