...As We Can Get


Every now and then, I tend to visualize my future
Daydreaming again and again, I think I now found someone to complete my picture
Realizing you were the one, made me think about forever
I know I don't regret anything I've done, 
please believe me, I'm glad that we're together

Apologies, my love, I really am sorry, for every time I've made you cry and worry
Never-ending patience and always being truthful, 
only some of the qualities you have for which I am most thankful

Nico, Mahal, just always trust me, I promise that you are my one and only
I swear to never leave you, you'll know that it's true
Continue with who you are and what you do, these are the reasons why I fell in love with you
Of this, I'm sure, so there are no need for bribes, 'cause with you, my love, I'm the luckiest girl alive.

Love of Autumn


Death of Elizabeth


My love..
It's not yet your time. This shouldn't have happened. No! You don't deserve this.
Don't I deserve you?
That's not what I meant. You had a whole life ahead of you.
You are my life. I wan't to stay here.
You're still stubborn, as you have always been... I've missed you, you know.
I missed you too. Sorry if I've kept you waiting.
It took you long enough, but you're worth every minute.
One more thing, Why did you follow me?
To be with you.

"Eyes look their last.

 Arms ache in their last embrace.

 Hearts break for love that is lost.."

Movies Schmovies



I also watched American Reunion. Super Funny. 

I loved Steven Stifler, as always. Haha :D  

Mila Kunis, a personal favorite of mine. Her eyes. Nuff said.

"I felt it. Perfect. It was perfect."

The last line in the dark, disturbing, yet seductive 2011 blockbuster, Black Swan from director Darren Aronsofsky. The doe-eyed actress, Natalie Portman is the exquisite, dedicated ballerina, Nina Sayers who fulfills her dream in playing the Swan Queen, but slowly loses her mind when her obsession on perfection complicates her role in acting the White Swan's evil twin, the passionate and lustful, Black Swan.

 I made the mistake of watching this movie late at night by myself    BAD IDEA. Many of you may not feel so, but as I am a very squeamish person, I did not appreciate the tearing flesh and blood and women stabbing their own faces with nail filers. 
But I have to admit, despite    or maybe because of    its unnerving theme, Black Swan is amazingly compelling. I couldn't stop watching even though I've been startled and scared out of my wits so many times. And the dancing!! Amazing. 
Mila (I. Love. Her.) and Natalie supposedly trained in ballet several months before the filming, and I commend them both (even if its not in my place to do so :P), their efforts certainly paid off big time. Brilliant actresses. And their bed scene certainly does not go unnoticed in my book. ;) 
If you haven't already, Go watch it! Now.

My girlfriends and I plan to have a movie marathon tomorrow after class, so hope I'll watch something worth posting :))

Ciao! <3

Love of Clothing


I hung out with my boyfriend today. :) So happy the sun finally peeked out of its hiding place.

So, for the post proper (LOL)
Ughh I am so obsessed about having a really cute dress. These little white and black yummies are from virtualdivisoria.com (be sure to visit if you're in Philippines, tons of great finds!) 
The first photo is my cousin, Sayaka Inagaki (the second girl) and her friend, Saki, who lives in Japan. They both have really pretty outfits but I kinda dig Sayaka's look more, a lot more. Especially her tights- oh, her tights... >_<
So anyway, me and my brother are currently watching American Pie: The Reunion and I'd better pay attention or he'd kill me. Hahaha :D See ya! Smiles for everyone :D

New Girl

 Hey :) I am Maria Francia Tirao. I am a super new blogger, quite an amateur and I don't really have the guts or the gadgets to maintain an acceptable blog, and honestly, I don't know why I'm doing this..Okay, I do. I am doing this for myself, not for attention or fame or for compliments, but for me, like an outlet. This blog will contain my thoughts, opinions on various things and my most awesome self.
                                                       Yes, I am very much happily smitten.
                               I LOVE clothes. And fashion. Though I do have a loooong way to go.

 Oh, look, flowers! Being a hopeless romantic, I'm a sucker for flowers. Pale pinks and whites. My Gramma grows beautiful geraniums and lilies and all sorts of orchids in her garden, but they're not in full bloom yet so I got this picture from Bonnie Barton of Flashes of Style (whom I idolize). :P

 This is my first official writing stint: Tadaa!! Death of Elizabeth. I co-wrote it with my best friend back in our 2nd year for a course requirement. The whole prod was made up of us sophomores, (My guy, Nico, being the leading man :P). We staged this at the UP Aldaba Hall. Quite an unforgettable experience. ;)
And of course. Potterhead alert! Harry Potter, The Boy Who Lived, The Chosen One with The King and the Greatest Witch of their age. My childhood, Hogwarts and J.K Rowling. :D
But I have lots (and lots and lots...) of other favorite books as well, but I can hardly post all of them. I am a very wide reader. Can somebody suggest some good books? I'm more of a fantasy/Romance kinda girl.

This is getting very looong... Hmm I think I'd just continue this another time. As for now, that's that. Hope and prayers for everyone, have a lovely smile today :)
