I have realized that I truly miss blogging; I finally 'fit' into this cyber-social circle, not that it was my intention to do so when I first started, & then to leave it idle for such a long period of time without good reason kinda makes me look cowardly. But I am back, & will make time for all you lovelies.<br /><br />I'm going to keep this update short, but I shall have longer (like 8 inches long ^_^) posts in the future.<br /><br />I have most recently moved into my very own place, my first place actually, by myself at 21. Still baffles me that I have my own set of keys to my very own place. Gahhhh. Excuse the mess & lack of furniture. Kinda still looks like this, mind you, as I have not yet furnished it.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/NEW%202010/?action=view&current=IMG_6054.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/NEW%202010/IMG_6054.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br />View of living room, first shot.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/NEW%202010/?action=view&current=IMG_6055.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/NEW%202010/IMG_6055.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br />Second shot.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/NEW%202010/?action=view&current=IMG_6053.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/NEW%202010/IMG_6053.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br />My yittle kitchen.

HAHA! Kidding, of course. I dance nightly for tourists of all sorts. These past few months have taken so much out of me. For one, the show is new, and it's so physically demanding, I barely have time to get a drink of water during the transition of numbers. It's okay though because I love it too much to complain. <br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_5221blahh.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_5221blahh.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Does anybody know how to heal a broken heart? Believe it or not, I've let this <span style="font-style: italic;">boy</span> control my mental existence for months now. More on this wretched topic in another post.<br /><br />Besides dancing and the gaping hole in my chest, I started a new job at a pretty amazing spa located at the same hotel housing my job as a dancer. It's pretty basic stuff--the front desk sort of thing. Otherwise, I MISS YOU ALL. I'm so out of the fashion loop it's not even funny. I didn't even follow last season (I'm horrible!). My jobs have seized my time for now, but hopefully I find a loophole. Don't give up on me guys :/<br /><br /><3<br />Jey<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-78079041633452856382009-08-13T04:17:00.000-07:002009-08-13T04:34:31.991-07:00Update ... sort of.<div style="text-align: center;">Hey bitches.<br /><br />Here is yet another apology to you all for neglecting my poor poor, underfed, emaciated blog. I actually have a legitimate explanation. You see, about a month ago, I started talking to this handsome young thing and before you know it, BAM! He's mine. Haha it actually took a lot more than that, trust me it did, but I'll save those memories for future cerebral entertainment.<br /><br />Otherwise, I am completely out of the fashion loop. Reggie told me a few days ago that Jourdan Dunn is pregnant and that's about as up to date as I am with the industry. Hopefully some of you can fill me in with everything that I've managed to miss this month. & isn't Spring 2010 FW just around the corner? Carazzy.<br /><br />Oh yeah, I chopped my hair off. Here's how I've been wearing it recently:<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_4183.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_4183.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />toodles.<br /><3<br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-60811113569290147502009-07-15T08:59:00.000-07:002009-07-15T09:06:05.387-07:00Totally.<div style="text-align: center;">Hey girls.<br /><br />No I haven't perished in the fires of hell; I've just been INCREDIBLY busy with work and work and WORK! Ughh I always say I'm a damn slave to labor because well, I frickin' am. On my days off, all I want to do is sleep, because when you deal with bitchy hungry people, you need as much time to recuperate from the mental damages they sometimes inflict in you.<br /><br />I also haven't really bought anything spectacularly amazing, so my laughable wadrobe is pretty undeserving of an outfit post these days. But you shall not worry -- I eyed some metallic chiffon at the fabric shop a while back and I'm thinking about having my seamstress whip up a shirt for me which hopefully will turn out fabulous. Dior? Customary Filipino apparel?<br /><br />toodles.<br /><3<br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-31123927569443315172009-06-29T22:02:00.000-07:002009-06-29T22:03:24.233-07:00The September Issue.<div style="text-align: center;"><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/S9-bAwz9uWk&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/S9-bAwz9uWk&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br /><br />QUIVERING IN ANTICIPATION.<br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-70654870526831888352009-06-28T03:45:00.000-07:002009-06-28T04:23:12.289-07:00Deuce.<div style="text-align: center;">Hey kids.<br /><br />I know I posted this outfit a while back but I thought I'd share a better picture with you all.

<br />Obviously Post Offices have the best lighting, especially at 11PM. My bottoms are a pair of spandex under....ermmm undergarments my dad left for me while he was here for R&R. At first, I was like WHAT INNAH HELL? Then I realized that I could totally claim them as 'bicycle shorts' which counteracted my initial disgust for them. Fun!
<br />
<br />Usually I avoid everything in the political spectrum for personal reasons, but our Youth Congress drafted a bill to legalize civil unions between same-sex couples who have been on Guam for more than five years, and the bill has already been passed on to the legislature with a strong supportive backbone from a couple of senators. The public is following this political endeavor avidly and heavily opinionated letters have already been submitted to the local newspaper, at the sight of which I respond with complete laughter. The things people can come up with astounds me. ASTOUNDS ME! All I have to say is that it's about damn time this place recognizes a community which clothes oily backs and sagging deflated breasts.

I told myself a few months back that I needed to rebuild my wardrobe because I felt like there was little to say about my style as I continued to dress in supertight Abercrombie t-shirts, plaid shorts, and leather slippers. This look, which has managed to be donned by thousands of young men like myself, is no longer tickling my fashion fancy and eventually faded into oblivion as I started learning more creative and, most importantly, more stylish ways of dressing.<br /><br />I say to anyone feasting on this text to step out of your comfort zones and experience new ways of dressing yourself. It may seem hard at first, but something beneficial to your self-esteem will come out of it. I can honestly attest to this because you become an individual once you start developing your personal style, something I learned once people started taking note.<br /><br />I don't know where all that came from, but moving on. I need as much input for this as possible so please feel free to throw in your two cents. I will be purchasing a professional camera sometime this week before I continue to deplete my funds, and before anything else, I am debating between Canon, Nikon, and Sony. My budget is $700 and since it's such an investment for someone of my financial standings, I am incredibly frightened of buyer's remorse. Please include your opinions if you own professional cameras, and feel free to suggest specific ones to make my purchase speedy.<br /><br />Thanks =]<br /><br />*Does anybody know why the complete right side of my layout is now at the bottom of my page?

<br />
<br />I thought it was funny that I wore this to a tacky beach-themed club party. I will vomit if I ever wear beach shorts on any surface other than sand.
<br />
<br />My parents and brother left a couple of days ago (my mom & brother to TX, and my dad back to Afghanistan), and I'm feeling unusually disconnected from the world. I called in sick to work this morning for no apparent reason. I probably didn't want to deal with the life I built in independence before I got a jolt of much needed family time. I don't know if that exactly made sense but whatevs.
<br />
<br />I really need to document all the crap I 'gathered' from the internet last month. My mom also brought me back some really essential basics for my wardrobe that I don't think I've mentioned before, all the more reason to abuse my Canon. Aside from that, during my little break from posting, I was spending a lot of time with my family because sometimes I get sucked into this theory where I'm living an individual life, disregarding the fact that I have loving and caring relatives all around me. It's sad because I subconsciously know that I feed this unhealthy theory when I cut time short with relatives just to be alone. WTF is that? I'm sorry that I have to share my mental instabilities with you all. Please bear with me while I sort through all my thoughts.
<br />
<br />I've read several articles concerning the Alaia VS. The Met Gala/Anna Wintour/Harold Koda case, and I'm glad mainstream films--<span style="font-style: italic;">cough, The Devil Wears Prada--</span>emphasize just how powerful ONE opinion can have over an entire billion-dollar industry. I'm no fashion historian, so please help me understand why Momma Wintour and AA can't hold hands and sing harmoniously around a warm camp-fire?
<br />
<br />Enough of that; I must retire under my covers to assure that I am fully functioning tomorrow.
<br />
<br />Oh, and Happy Mother's Day to all you baby makers!

My dad was telling me stories tonight about his living conditions on his base, and it's so bad I couldn't even respond. I felt horrible listening to him, knowing I have a solid ground to stand on while showering, or a legitimate bathroom to do my business, or even something so simple as running water. I honestly believe that the conversations I share with the people I love the most are directed by fate because I understand now that the things that I have, the people that I surround myself with in life mean so much more to me most especially when they are taken away.<br /><br /><3<br /><br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-66303670972201950502009-04-24T08:23:00.000-07:002009-04-24T08:41:28.587-07:00when Margiela is out of your reach.<div style="text-align: center;">Thanks to USPS, I only had to pay a whole dollar for shipping.

I was out with a friend a week ago and something petty but sufficiently childish happened at the tail-end of our alcohol-induced night. When my sobriety is flung out of the window with an unsure amount in ounces of tokyo teas, I tend to get pretty affectionate with whomever accompanies me during said alcohol consumption. So my friend whom I have known since I was a child was with me this particular night, and since my usually stiff demeanor was pervaded by liquor causing me to become flimsy, I resorted to what I like to call the infamous one-arm shoulder hang at which I am apparently skilled. Anyway, I was hanging on my friend for what seemed like the rest of the drunken night until he shows me a text message his boyfriend sends him saying he recieved a text from an anonymous source. From the grace of all that is sober, this is what my memory can gather:
<br />
<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Why is somebody sending me a text saying that you're with some guy and you two are all cuddly?
<br />
<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span>Oh, yes dear readers. Some tragic clubkid pulled a stunt from <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Hills, </span>and I am not havin' it. Here's what I have to say: If you have the audacity to be vindictive and then proceed to hide behind your little cellphone screen, the least you can do, well for yourself anyway, is grow a set and be a real bitch about it. Come up to me and say you're a nosy friend of a friend and interrogate me. Even if my relationship with my friend is none of your fucking business, make it your business since you already decided to play phone spy regarding a situation completely irrelevant to your intentions for going out that night in the first place.
<br />
<br />Good. So it's settled. So you can shave your back now. Bye Jason. <span style="font-style: italic;">

<br /><span style="font-size:85%;">This picture is completely irrelevant to the content of this post. Just a little mirror cam'whoring with my favorite fashionista. </span>
<br />
<br />Aside from that dispensable debacle, I had a great time with a great friend, and all I can do now is laugh at the depths that people will go for entertainment.
<br />
<br />Oh and that thing about Alber Elbaz for Target was my attempt at a little APRIL FOOLS fun. Sorry if you were genuinely excited, haha.

I'm such a horrible shopper because I just wander into places without any expectations for my potential purchases. I don't even have an idea of where I want to shop; I seriously just drive around and park wherever an impulse strikes me. It's pretty tragic but provides for an incredibly random adventure that almost always results in major hauls.<br /><br />I actually started off at a fabric store where I found an assortment of the most beautiful yet very delicate metallic chiffon's. I couldn't think quickly enough of what the fabric could be used for to suede a purchase, so constant groping and minute-long glares had to suffice. I did though leave with a couple yards of a plain black cotton-blend which I took minutes later to a seamstress to have sewn into drop-crotch pants. Immediacy? Cravings? I steer my own ship.<br /><br />I then found myself wandering into a formal-wear store where if I'm correct, inaugurated my obsession with bow-ties. I was helped by a really sweet saleslady who busted out some gems in vivid hues and couldn't later resist buying. I also snagged two suspenders in plain black and dark navy. Before I checked out, something completely subtle yet vigorously bitchy happened in a short convo I had with the saleslady while trying on the last of my ties. Here's how it went:<br /><br />What I <span style="font-style: italic;">thought </span>she said: <span style="font-weight: bold;">Those are so stylish. </span>(referring to the tie)<br />My response: <span style="font-weight: bold;">I know, right?<br /><br /></span>What she <span style="font-style: italic;">really </span>said: <span style="font-weight: bold;">You're so stylish!<br /><br /></span>Hahahahahaha! She probably thought I had my nose jammed so far up a dark crevice with that type of response. I don't think she caught it though because we continued in regular conversation until I checked out. So two suspenders and four bow-ties in my shopping bag--not bad, eh?<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_2688.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_2688.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />To conclude my purchases, I ended up at Bench where I picked up a couple of short-sleeved button-ups along with a striped cardigan that was surprisingly on sale. And since a reliable photographer is not at my beckoning these days, I snapped a couple of quick shots in the dressing room.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_2674.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_2674.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br />(Kohl's wool fedora, American Apparel mint big tank, self-made starfish pendant, self-made bow-tie necklace, Ross cigarette pants, K-Mart canvas shoes)<br /><br />Did anyone else hear/read about Elbaz doing a line for Target this Fall?<br /><br />toodles<3<br /><br /><br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-3453936561336052842009-03-29T22:10:00.001-07:002009-03-29T22:43:39.008-07:00Chocolate Starfish.<div style="text-align: center;">Just a quickie before I head to work. I woke up at the crack ass of dawn this morning to apply for a business license for reasons too pathetic to even mention. I went home and sank into my dreams for a couple of hours and that was my fulfilling day.<br /><br />I bought <a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" href="http://store.americanapparel.net/rsa2405.html">this</a> double-breasted bad boy once the page loaded and my eyes met the screen. What impulse shopping? Haha and then I found out that my friend is already making sweet epidermis love to it as he purchased his weeks earlier. I realized that online shopping at 1AM induces incredible irritation to my mood mostly because I'm fighting my eyelids closing on me and some websites wait to mention shipping locations after you've bagged hundreds of dollars worth of mass market goodness.<br /><br />Anyway, I had a couple of hours to kill the other day and went gallivanting through random stores until I found myself walking into a craft store. It never appeared to me the creative freedom one has once enveloped in such a DIY atmosphere. I left with a bag of the most adorable miniature teddy bears, a ceramic starfish and seaman's anchor, miniature hangers, and a bag of pins. My little trip to the craft store resulted in the creation of three of my new favorite brooches.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_2646.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_2646.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Too bad the ceramic pieces are inconveniently heavy thus weighing down lightweight t-shirts. I better skedaddle out of here before traffic gets all kinds of crazy. Oh, and a huge Congrats to Rumi over at <a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.fashiontoast.com/">fashiontoast</a> for her most recent endeavors!

They're amazingly comfortable; plus it's always fun to watch people stare at your donk as you pass them. Ha. I haven't really been doing anything too exciting these days. Hooray for minimum-wage jobs! That's really what consumes a chunk of my time nowadays. All work and a pathetic amount of play. Bleh.<br /><br />As I type, I am trying to convince myself (wtf?) that my wardrobe needs to be rebuilt, and moderately-priced mass market clothing is where I should start. Yes? Yes.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_2620.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_2620.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=IMG_2625.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/IMG_2625.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br />(Striped-tee, jewel pin, bow tie necklace, FTL long johns, thrifted BDU boots.)<br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-69614214850883487122009-03-19T20:00:00.000-07:002009-03-19T20:28:45.356-07:00Stumble.<div style="text-align: center;">The expanse of my vocabulary isn't so spectacular, but the closest word I can think of to describe myself at present day is <span style="font-style: italic;">melancholy. </span>I feel like I'm at a standstill, and sadly this isn't the first time I have felt like this. It's continuously recurring, and I have yet to find a remedy to climb out of this black hole. I really wish I was a naturally chipper person regardless of the horrible influences in circumference of me, but I'd rather be flesh than plastic. I apologize if this is such a boner-kill for anyone reading; bare with me while I search for the spring in my step.<br /><br />Moving on. I wore this last night to go out, and before I walked into the club, one of the drags mingling outside said, "LOVE the outfit." Haha I always feel validated when a drag queen comments on my style.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=DSC01615.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/DSC01615.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br />(Royal Bics bow-tie, Bench shirt, thrifted biker jacket, K-Mart belt, Ross pants, thrifted shoes.)<br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-10683788318006802532009-03-10T11:47:00.000-07:002009-03-10T12:22:27.750-07:00i can't think of a witty title for this one.<div style="text-align: center;">The past couple of days have been a little crazy for me. I've had to adjust the way my time is spent throughout the day, now that my duo-set of jobs consumes every single minute available to me. I was about ready to shank one of my managers on Monday because I had to stay behind almost 2 hours beyond my scheduled shift. But enough of that--back to fashion.<br /><br />The latest collections I had a chance to 'review' were Balmain, Balenciaga, & Nina Ricci. I was disappointed that Decarnin showed an almost exact replica of his Spring collection for Fall. I felt like an audience member watching that scene in <span style="font-style: italic;">Bring It On </span>when the two squads performed the same routine back to back. There were about two or three looks that I'm sure last season's Balmain groupies have already set as their desktop wallpaper, but other than those looks, it was an extension of Spring. <span style="font-weight: bold;">I can't even discuss Balenciaga. </span>& the footwear at Nina Ricci? Kudos to the models who walked for Theyskens in those 9+inch heel-lees platforms.<br /><br />Anyway, I know I haven't done an outfit post in ages, so here's to 4AM photo sessions.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=DSC01532.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/DSC01532.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=DSC01529.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/DSC01529.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />(Oversized pocket-tee, FTL cream long johns, vintage Calico boots, scissor necklace, virgin mary pin, faux tortoise-shell bracelet)<br /></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928016477848879340.post-40835719434985544142009-03-05T06:03:00.000-08:002009-03-05T07:04:21.217-08:00Okay, how do you spell GABBANA?<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;">(to the tune of If I Were A Boy)</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">If I had a hot pocket .....</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/?action=view&current=mariacarladolce.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/island_pride/mariacarladolce.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">My name is Mariacarla Boscono, & this is how you do fierce.</span><br /><br />So I'm assuming Balenciaga has already shown because of <a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" href="http://jakandjil.com/blog/?p=1470">this</a>. I commend anybody regardless of your position in the service industry. It's a significantly different experience working tables as opposed to dining on them, and I think it's something that people who eat out regularly should realize. I made a thousand mistakes today, but I learned a thousand new things and thank God for tragic managers because otherwise my life would be too perfect.<br /><br />How are you all consuming Fashion 'Month'? Let me know which designers left you salivating and which ones just need to wake up from a horrible nightmare.<br /><br /><3</span></div>JEYQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15279378647681184661noreply@blogger.com6
