Day 6- Your Favorite Super Hero and Why?

Of all the super heroes in the world, who do I love the most and why? Well, that's simple. ^_^ SUPERMAN~! *insertmoviebgmusic*

I know you've seen loads of remakes of the original movie/story and stuff but my heart will always belong to the very first actor who acted out Superman. In all honesty, I don't know his name. hahaha /fail! but he has set my mind into how a hero should be and how superman looks like. Heck! I didn't even read the comics. I'm not a die hard fan of the movie and the comics, but I am indeed a fan of superman and his ideals. I wish to find a man who's willing to try and turn back time to rid the world of his mistakes. or just find ways to make his ways right hehehe.

NOTD- Nail of the day!

LUCIDarling Fantastic Nails 02

I was going through a trauma phase in my life after watching Jessica Soho and finding out about loads of stuff about those cheap nail polishes I used to buy in Divisoria. I've learned my lesson and will never buy from them ever again! So I made myself happy by buying myself two LUCIDarling nail polishes from Etude House. I'll be posting reviews and stuff in my Strawberry Mikan account tomorrow so look forward to that. 

Day 5- A Picture of Somewhere You've been to.

Okay, well since this is a new blog I guess it's proper to say about stuff about me. I was born and raised until my 3rd grade in elementary here in the Philippines but we moved to Saudi Arabia around May of 1999 before I entered 4th grade. I first entered a school called IPSJ, which is short for International Philippine School in Jeddah. I only stayed there for the first two quarters then I transferred to Al Hekma International School in Jeddah, my forever love! My mom teaches there so when she moved to work there, me and my sister had to transfer schools as well. I studied there until Highschool and then College in the Philippines. I miss this place so much! I'm hoping I can come back next year because I love Saudi Arabia and I miss that place so much

Day 4- A habit that you wish you didn’t have

photo by Me. Model: my cousin Gwen

I wouldn't really call it a habit. I just have this way of overly thinking things without the need to do so. In every situation and in every little thing that I do, I end up going back to doing this and think everything through. Not that weird but it is to me. It kinda gives me both bad and good feedbacks. I do the same when putting on makeup too. I tend to doubt on how I have to do looks and stuff. 

Updates are slow because I was helping my uncle with campaigning. He's running for office in our district so I'm being the supportive niece who helps out.

Day 3- A Photo of You and Your Friends


This is probably the first time I'll be blogging about my graduation day. One of the most special days in my life. I graduated with Academic Excellence and as one of the Best Thesis writers. Twas one of the most amazing days of my life. I think I have everyone I want in this photo. All of my college buddies are here and two of my best friends ever are here as well. I just love these people so much. I never knew our friendship would be tainted at some point but I guess that's something inevitable and something that we can only as God to guide those two people I love.

On a much brighter and happier note, I did my own makeup here. I did Fafinettex3's Valentine makeup and added a few of my extra techniques as well. ^_^
well, that's it for now. Tata!

Day 2- The Meaning behind your Tumblr name (In this case Blog name)

photography by me! here's my DA account

My blog name is Makeup and Photography by Aya, simply because I'm using this blog as a way to promote my Photography and to deal with how my Makeup skills are improving. Plus, my nickname is Aya, for most people I know at least, so I simply combined everything like that. haha. lame right? I know, but its my simple happy way to be myself lol.

Oh and yeah, about the picture I posted here. This photo was taken during a stroll around our village. I took Sapphire (my Nikon D3000) and practiced my photography skeeelz. I actually want to do a cosplay shoot or a fashion shoot right now but I don't know if I could get some models/victims (?) for that. Anyhoo. toodles!
