The Tiger is On Me

Tapping again my animalistic side with this fun and stylish pair of shorts from Forever 21. Anything in animal print is a perfect addition to any wardrobe since they easily add some sizzle and glamor to any look.

In your animal print outfit assembly, use neutral shades with it to tame everything in your outfit and show off the print. Here I have incorporated a few dapper details to add touches of my personality and style.  Though the overall message is to keep the outfit simple as the shorts make an impression by themselves.

If you want to turn heads and if you're a serious fashionista, then try an animal print coat or skirt.  For those who have a more understated fashion style and are still not sure how to incorporate animal prints into their wardrobe try an animal print scarf, either way you can't go wrong.

So there you go! Try the look and find that you can get away with wearing a pair. :)

Luis Starts to Write - "Around The Country"

Here's Luis' 2nd (unedited) blog post.


                                                           Around The Country

A few years ago, I went around the country.

I saw the beautiful wonders of the Philippines.

I also went scuba diving in the ocean, like I was even in a real adventure.

I also spent the night in a luxurious and elegant 5-star hotel.

After that, I continued with my adventure.

I saw many animals in the wild.

I also took a close look at many beautiful and colorful plants.

Then, I rode my bicycle, seeing many people working outdoors such as farmers.

After that, I reached home exhausted, and dozed-off.

I really had a fun adventure.  

Reality check:

We haven't had the chance to actually tour the country and indulge in its beauty. The farthest Luis has traveled to locally was in Baguio, if I'm not mistaken. Actual scuba diving? Nah. But certainly he has watched a few episodes on scuba diving at Nat Geo. Matter of fact, Luis' closest encounter with deep waters was during his swimming lessons when he had to dive (or be thrown) 6 feet deep. And another when he rode on a jet ski with his Tito, and even got lost in their way back. Spending time in 5-star hotels, the only statement I consider not needing reality check :) Seeing animals in the wild - yes maybe, caged in various zoos we have visited here and abroad. The effort to see beautiful and colorful plants was exerted because it's a school requirement particularly in Science class during their lecture on habitats of living things. When Luis was 4, he was gifted by a bicycle but never actually learned to ride it with confidence. 

For me, writing is all about spontaneity in exploring something foreign and unknown, thats when you really get a feel of the writer's potential. I think one is most effective when he actually gives himself no limitations. And personally, that's what makes me more proud of my son Luis. I could only imagine how his mind was pacing at a hundred frames a second while his imagination wanders endlessly when he was writing this. He really took time to escape and explore, if only in his thoughts.

His 3rd entry coming up soon....
