Why blogging?

I just want to explain, rather, share why of all things to be busy about, I chose blogging. Blogging is pretty much like an online diary to me, or an instant scrapbook. You can design anything without having so much trash around the house and its a lot cheaper too! Creativity can be expressed in many ways, right?

I started blogging three years ago in Tumblr. I was just a reblogger during my first year in blogging, but don't judge! Reblogging is one way of blogging, it's just that it is put into words (or pictures) by other people and is re-posted / "reblogged" by other people. It's fun reblogging! After some time I got tired of reblogging and thought, "Hey, I can write. Why don't I write my own blog posts?". So there! I started blogging using Filipino, just posting what's in my mind, not caring what about the people that might read what I'm posting and stuff. After quite some time I started writing in English. I don't know why but I became cautious after that. Then I got lazy blogging there and  became super inactive to the point that I lost a lot of followers. I didn't blame them, though. Okay so blogging has been a part of my high school life. Sometimes when I'm really frustrated I type in what's on my mind and clear it out after. Hahaha! I'm crazy. When I have this feeling that no one will care, that's the time that I will post it. Turns out, people will care! Me=TH

I don't know why this became a story about my blogging experience. Sorry! Haha!

Blogging helps me develop my writing skills. I have this dream of becoming a journalist in the near future (and that future is really REALLY near!!!!). I have been writing since grade school. What I used to write is editorial news, so I must be formal when writing that. Using the word "I" is a sin, and so is using "wanna" and "gonna". When some representative from somewhere read my article, she scolded me for doing that! Lol! One of my unforgettable moments during my training... *sigh*

Sometimes I get really lazy writing using pen and paper because I'm a bit O.C with my handwriting. Now that it's summertime, I didn't get to practice writing. Wish me luck on the first day of school! I also have this short-term memory loss (like Dory! but I'm kidding) that I sometimes tend to forget what I'm about to write or my train of thought. Weird, I know. Or kinda. That's why I blog!

I think my story's longer than my explanation. Lol fail.

Shopping around Fremantle!

The tax here is so high like the sky (err.. not really but I want to use that phrase hihi) causing expensive stuff! Good thing a town like Fremantle exists, a town where all the cheap stuff is located. Well, cheaper than the stuff in the city, that is. Fremantle is also the home of yummy cupcakes! (and beer -.-)  


It's hot in Fremantle, too. Unlike here in Rockingham, it's 15 degrees. -__-


Souvenir shops!! 





These cute miniature guitars.. I would like to buy one but it costs 35 AuD! When converted to peso, it costs 1,540. Too expensive for a pasalubong. :( My dad bought one, though. See the yellow one at the leftmost side? That's it :D It has a doodle of John Lennon on it. I don't even know if doodle is the correct term... 


Slipknot's miniature guitar! (Not a fan, just found it cute lol)




Badly want this for my future room. :( Does anyone know where I can buy these in the Philippines?



They have so many things like this here. IDEK why. Hahaha! 


Tried Sky View! Nothing special. Though unlike MoA Eye, we stayed there for like, 10 minutes or so.





Views from the top! Hellooooo Fremantle! 




We visited the Maritime Museum, too. It's boring, actually. It made me sleepy!






Can you believe that these are soaps? Cute! ^__________________^


Had some Bratwurst before going home.


Fremantle is definitely one of my favorite places here on Earth. :D

Back then I liked headbands with bows and I had bangs! (Second year high school)
To be honest I kinda miss my bangs. But it's annoying so I let it grow.. :P 

Happy belated mother's day, mom! I won't say you're the best mom in the world 'cause you're my ONLY mom in the world so for me you're the best. Just like how mothers treat their kids like "You're the prettiest 'cause you're my daughter" and stuff. But I mean it! And I'm the prettiest not only because I'm your daughter, it's because I'm really pretty. Hahahahaha! Di na uso pa-humble, eew
________________________________________________________________

Still can't blog about our Fremantle trip because our pictures got corrupted! Luckily my sister saved it to her laptop before that happened so all I have to do is transfer pictures from there to here. I'm kinda lazy to do it now because I have to post-process them and stuff. Join me in praying for my laziness, guys!

Penguin Island!

Stopped first by the souvenir shop when we got there. Super cute penguin!! 


Had coffee before going in the ferry :)

When we got into the island, there were so many seagulls! Some even had nests and they were sitting on their eggs. So cuuute!




And here are the penguins! They're called "Little Penguins".







They weren't that hyper unlike those shown in cartoon movies. When we got there, they're so still! I think they were waiting for something. Then when the girl came to feed them, they went all hyped up and I can't stand their cuteness!! <3 



Saw some wild penguins under the walkway while exploring the island. They're scared :( I think. Lol.


Just some sleeping sea lion. He's badass. Hahaha! I think he was dreaming because he was moving while sleeping. :P Cute!




Blog post on our Fremantle trip soon!

Gaga over chocolates!




I'm blogging this again because this place is unforgettable! The Margaret River Chocolate Co. offers a variety of chocolates from dark chocolates to rum-filled ones. They even offer chili-flavored ones! I know it's weird.. but my sister said that the chili didn't give an effect to the chocolate. I don't know, it's too weird to try. What makes the store unique is they have FREE CHOCOLATE TASTING! It's unlimited too so it can be my heaven now. *insert the Hallelujah chorus here* I think we'll be going to its factory some other time. I'm looking forward to it! 




Blue.


Been in Perth, Australia for almost 2 months now. Yeah sure, the weather's nice (and by nice, I mean it's always a cuddle weather), the food is, too, but I can't wait to go home! I'm super excited for my review classes when I get back and for sure I'll be hanging out with my friends. I super miss this someone too... It makes me sad. :(



So much for my first blog post.
