Last Monday Night
I just got home! Last night, Nel asked me to meet up with her because she was obviously longing for me. Lol. But seriously though, the last time we hung out was like, on February. So we went to Sam's, and had a really good time laughing aloud like hyenas (although IMO we sounded more like elephants; oh well, we should stick to the popular idiom) and talking about
stuff. Touchy stuff, funny stuff, gossipy stuff, more funny stuff. Then we tweeted/reblogged in between. Nel and I will never survive without Twitter/Tumblr. I'm tired, can't type much and my brain refuses to brew creative ideas. I'm so lame.
The last time I went to that place was two years ago! Click if you wanna read the post about my high school life. That's the second part btw, you can go search the first and third.
Photos were taken with Instagram, I just made an account last night. Wanna follow me? My username is rainymartini. Order of captions will be from left to right, so there'll be no confusions.
My tired eye saying "hi" or "I am oshom omg". Sam's dream catcher, and Aaron giving Nel her shot.
A selca with Nel. Sam and Nel gossiping, oooh look at my hairband. The boys kept wearing it in turn. I lost it today when some stranger gave us a lift. I might have subconsciously placed it on the seat beside me. We were abruptly dropped off and boom. I only noticed it when I was at Nel's already. Wtf Rainy, IT WASN'T YOUR FUCKING CAR. It was my favorite hairband! My pink hanky was left, too. Not gonna put a caption for the last photo because.... idk.
Those are uh... my blanket-covered legs. ArmslegsyellowshortstealshirtiPad on the second photo. NelandSamonthelastphoto. I'm feeling so lazy I already consider pressing the spacebar a chore.
Some stuff. I don't feel like writing about them anymore so just look at them and think for yourself, okay? Mwah.
We camped in that same room for the night and since we were like siblings, it was okay for both the boys and girls to be in one room. But we didn't sleep until 8 A.M.! Nel kept burping for hours and we didn't know why. It was funny... YOU FROGGY NEL. Hahahaha!
I feel like trying to annoy you by showing you a ginormous Earlybird-ed photo of some fake roses.
You annoyed now ah?
Loljk.
-.- I seriously feel so sleepy but I wanna update. I'll be meeting up with Nel tomorrow! Not sure when my adventures will stop (hopefully a week later) so yeah.
Gonna go sleep now. See ya!

rainy martini
Half-Chinese, 18 years old, currently living in a city near Manila. I'd always been a city girl, but I still find myself surrounded by greenery. I play the piano and the flute. I can play more instruments but it's safe to say that those two are my specialties. I started playing the piano around the same time I learned how to read. The flute, only when I was around nine. For me, reading is breathing. I fancy historical and mythological stuff. But I do read many other forms of literature. My favorite "modern" authors are JK Rowling, Sophie Kinsella, Tess Gerritsen, James Patterson, Jerry Spinelli, Neil Gaiman, and Stephen King. I write, too. Mostly poetry, but lately I've been into writing prose.
The sight of strawberries on top of a whipped cream comforts me. Gelato, kakigori, cakes and coffee are love. I'm a real foodie person and sweets are the first things I wanna see or eat every day. Yeap, I'm a terminal sweet tooth. There's no going back. Fuck sugar levels. Lol. I also fancy kawaii and miniature stuff like plushies, squishies and decoden products. I'm obsessed with tiny objects, hence my fascination with Re-ment merchandise and cute pixels.

Ooops, did I mention how much I love photography, and how handling a camera is a sacred craft for me? I don't take cameras for granted. You should try being a shutterbug without an equipment! Lol.
the blog / the writing style
This blog abruptly started on September 2011, a few weeks after making myself leave my old photoblog Sixth Sick Sheep for good. As you'd seen on the sidebar, photos, thoughts and designs are to be showcased here. I wish to hone my skills as a teenager, and since I'm at the prime of my youth, I'm in a rush. Loljk not really. I'll be young foreverrrr!
My aim is to improve my resourcefulness by running a blog without much equipments. I'd very much love to show you the photos I took, graphics I designed and the evil thoughts I had concocted inside my head.
I am in fact, sarcastic and frank. Although, my sense of humor also involves some self-deprecating attitude. But all in good fun right? I will not apologize if I had offended anybody unless I gave a direct insult. You are responsible for your emotions, I have nothing to do with how you feel so I will not be the least bit guilty. Strictly speaking.
I own every photo, design and writings I post unless otherwise stated. I calmly ask you not to steal anything because I have ways of knowing who do me wrong. More often than not. If you were inspired by something you saw in this blog, kindly credit me. Credit me if you take anything, any thing at all. Be they thoughts, photos, et cetera. I'm usually nice so if you need help, go ahead and ask.

F. A. Q.
What camera do you use? I use whatever I have in hand like my phone, and random digital cameras because I don't have a DSLR anymore. The HD photos are taken using DSLR, of course. It doesn't matter what you use, just have the right angle and settings, then you're good.
Can you really understand French?
Oui.
What do you use to edit photos?
Normally I would say Adobe Photoshop CS5, but I changed laptops and I currently don't have it installed. So I use online editing services like Pixlr or Fotoflexer. I also use Android apps like Pixlr-o-matic, Pudding Camera, Snapbucket and Photoshop Express.
Where do you get resources?
Fonts: DaFont, MyFonts, FontSquirrel.
Resources: CrazyKira, 99Mockingbirds, Swimchick, Kisuki, Bloomotion, Sanctae, Nyxthea, Whisperwars, SwimChick, Ixora, FloralTutorials, ChantiiGG.
Do you code your own skins? What software do you use?
Yes I do. I use Notepad++, and sometimes Dreamweaver. But I prefer the first. You can download Notepad++ here.
Can I use your skins as basecodes?
Yes but always credit me, all blogskinners like me deserve that small, valuable thing.
Can I have your old layout codes?
Check my blogskins account first, I might have submitted it already. If it's not there, give me your e-mail.
Can you code me a customized layout or design me a blog header?
Yes, but this is a charged service. I don't have a price list and a compiled portfolio though. Just contact me for more details. But, if you're a very close friend (online or personal), just ask me wtf, I'll do it for free. You know I love you.
