Creative Juice#011: Japanese Fashion Subcultures

Images from oneinchpunch.net

My fascination for Japanese fashion and its many subcultures continues as I learn more and more by reading little bits of gems in the Net. Here's a link on an article entitled 10 Unusual Japanese Fashions and Subcultures I stumbled upon Listverse.com. The site itself is plump with various lists 'that intrigue and educate, specializing in the bizarre or lesser-known trivia.'

Personally, I found it addicting and highly entertaining.

Shutterbug - Wannabe #014: Blue Skies

Everything drowns in hues of sky blue one awesome Sunday afternoon along Timog Avenue near St. Paul the Apostle Parish. I took these photos after our PREX (Parish Renewal Experience) Grand Assembly slash despedida party for Kuya Gerald Moskie. I'll miss basking under the warmth of the afternoon sun when classes start tomorrow.

First Day

Classes for this year's first semester will start tomorrow. Moved by the A(H1N1) flu scare (classes in college were supposed to start last week but was postponed by the anticipated increase in number of infected among university students), I really don't know what to expect and feel. I'm neither excited nor sad that summer break has finally ended. I'm just okay.

Boy, the rain has really gotten into me. I'm bored.

Shutterbug - Wannabe

Moved by this wonderful urban foggy scene, I shamelessly copy-pasted this undated photo from one of my friend's album in Facebook. Haha. Many thanks to Zari for those wonderful pictures.

Weather Freak

People think and behave differently when there is a storm. And if there ever is a word to describe that lunatic who go over excited and enthralled when the weather's totally freaked out, I'm one of them.

This morning I went over my daily newspaper route and kind of enjoyed what I've witnessed. Deserted streets, broken twigs, thousands of fallen leaves, an assortment of litter carried in by the strong gusts of wind and the eerie ambiance you feel when you know that something beyond human control is coming. I felt the trees conversing as they rustle and dance with the wind's whisper. Even the rain as they pound endlessly on our roof brought a calming trance you'll never want to end.

Maybe the lack of hustle and bustle in the city life during these times is what's forcing me to stop and take notice of even the slightest of movement there is. I'm just glad that I'm falling in love again with nature...

But enough with this weird talk cause I know I'm making someone cringe. And in the risk of another blackout or the usual power trips I'm clicking Publish Post.

Rain All Day

Rainy day at KFC restaurant...

Haircut for Men

I had my first change of haircut the other day. I’m telling you it feels very liberating to have moved on from the look I have had since I was a kiddo. And because I don’t want to use a picture of my grinning face to illustrate how I look (that would be so narcissistic and *ahem* this is not a vanity site) just try to imagine my unkown face on those pictures above I got from hairstyledesign.com.
