Mirrors

~Justin Timberlake~

[Verse 1]

Aren't you something to admire, 'cause your shine is something like a mirror

I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine

If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find

Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul

I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go

Just put your hand on the glass, I'm here trying to pull you through

You just gotta be strong

[Chorus]

'Cause I don't wanna lose you now

I'm looking right at the other half of me

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that now you hold

Show me how to fight for now

And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy

Coming back here to you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me

I couldn't get any bigger

With anyone else beside of me

And now it's clear as this promise

That we're making two reflections into one

'Cause it's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

[Verse 2]

Aren't you somethin', an original

'Cause it doesn't seem merely a sample

And I can't help but stare, 'cause

I see truth somewhere in your eyes

I can't ever change without you

You reflect me, I love that about you

And if I could, I would look at us all the time

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul

I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go

Just put your hand on the past, I'm here trying to pull you through

You just gotta be strong

[Chorus]

'Cause I don't wanna lose you now

I'm looking right at the other half of me

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that now you hold

Show me how to fight for now

And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy

Coming back here to you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

Stuck in my mirror

My mirror staring back at me

I couldn't get any bigger

With anyone else beside of me

And now it's clear as this promise

That we're making two reflections into one

'Cause it's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

[Break]

Yesterday is history

Tomorrow's a mystery

I can see you looking back at me

Keep your eyes on me

Baby, keep your eyes on me

[Chorus]

'Cause I don't wanna lose you now

I'm looking right at the other half of me

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that now you hold

Show me how to fight for now (show me baby)

And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy

Coming back here to you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me

I couldn't get any bigger

With anyone else beside of me

And now it's clear as this promise

That we're making two reflections into one

'Cause it's like you're my mirror

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

[Hook]

You are you are the love of my life (x10)

[Verse 3]

Now you're the inspiration for this precious song

And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on

So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone

And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home

Just to let you know, you are

You are you are the love of my life (x8)

[Verse 4]

Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you

My reflection, in everything I do

You're my reflection and all I see is you

My reflection, in everything I do

You are you are the love of my life (x16)

Happy 28th Birthday, Jaejoong!

Happy happy birthday, Jaejoong! I don't know what else to say... I think I've said a lot of times, that I'll always stay as your fan (though, today I feel that it's not the same level as before), you're a part of my fangirl life and it'll never change. :) You said you're going to the army this year, I will wait for you! Hihi. I hope after entering the army, your dreams of forming your own band would come to reality. And I know you'd do it. I just wish that you'd have a new Japanese album together with Junsu and Yoochun. Though, it seems impossible for now, I hope in the future, I could hear you guys sing in the Japanese again. I miss hearing you sing Japanese songs. It's not wrong to dream, right? :)

Anyhoo, I'm so glad you already quit smoking. It's bad for your health. Good to know that you know that ;).
Happy Birthday again, and you'll always be my number one Korean dish. XD Stay healthy and happy! I love you! ♥

Happy 32nd Birthday, Sho!

Happy Birthday, Sakurai Sho!! Geez, you are old! LOL. But in fairness, you don't look like 32! Just how you guys, manage to do that? Have you found the fountain of youth? Anyhoo, my wish for you is to be more successful in all your endeavors in life. You stay awesome, ayt? :) We love you!!

Cute Headbands

I'm in love with cute things! And I love collecting headbands.

1) Minnie Mouse headband - found this at Farmer's mall. Hinanap ko talaga ito, kasi, Jaejoong had worn Minnie mouse headband in his drama "Protect the boss". I find this so cute. :3 Wala lang, para match talaga kame ni JJ. Hehe!

2) Flower crown - bought this from Girl's Shoppe for only Php 140. I like this one coz it really looks girly and Miranda Kerr had worn something like this in one of her photo shoots. Parang fairy o diwata lang ang peg nitong flower crown. Hihi.

3) Cat ears headband - I've always been wanting to have this one. Saw Tiffany of SNSD wearing this and this looks so cute on her. Eh, feeling ko, cute din ako pag magsusuot ng ganito. Lol. Got this at Star City for only Php 30. Sa tagal- tagal nang paghahanap ko ng headband na ganito sa Pasay ko lang pala matatagpuan. Lol. Mas pretty sana if it's like the one Taylor Swift had worn in her "22" MV, iyong may swarovski pa. I read from somewhere that Forever 21 sell the Taylor Swift kind-of-cat-ears-headband. Hopefully, they also sell it here in the Pinas.

4) Crown headband - As you all know, my secret wish is to be a beauty queen! Since sa panaginip ko lang mangyayari iyon, bumili na lang ako ng crown headband sa Broadway Gems. it's cute naman `di ba? ^_^

So, there yah go. Ayan lang naman ang collection ko ng cute headbands. Hindi pa kasama iyong iba kasi may kalumaan na iyong iba.  ~ :)

Yaney's First So-Called "Beauty Blog"

Hi guys!

Tonight, I'll try to be a "beauty blogger"! LOL.

Lately, I've been reading and watching a lot of makeup and beauty tutorials over blogs and YouTube again. I watch and read these stuffs from time to time but I actually do not apply it in real life. Haha! Well, maybe... someday in the future. I'm not really the "girly-girl" type but I really enjoy reading and watching this stuff ever since.  And I've always wanted to learn how to apply makeup properly, so yeah, I really hope I could learn, most if not all, the tutorials those makeup gurus and beauty bloggers are doing. Sometimes, it's really nice to feel and be a girly-girl ^_^.

Anyhoo, these are the things I've purchased a few days ago from Watsons.

sorry for the bad picture. :p

1) A' Bonne whitening spa milk lotion - I'm not trying to be white or something, I just like to try this lotion for its UV protection. This has a really nice smell and I like it.

2) OLAY (Total Effects 7 in one) - I've always wanted to get my hands on this one because they say it's really effective. I just didn't buy it before because it's too pricey for me. LOL. Good thing that it was on sale at Watsons. The original price was, I think, Php 749, and I got this one for only Php 395!! Imagine that! I purchased it right away, because, sayang naman diba? Sale na, eh.

3) IN2IT eyebrow kit - My bff told me that eyebrow powder works better than eyebrow pencils if you are just a beginner. Lately, I've been obsessing in making my eyebrows perfectly. I wanted to have perfect eyebrows because, well, I have invisible eyebrows. Lol. They are sparse and I freak out every time I look at myself on the pictures and I don't have existing eyebrows. It's so ugly. Eew. So yeah, that's why I'm learning how to do perfect eyebrows. I hope I could perfectly do this one. And they say, for girls, having perfectly arched and defined brows makes you more beautiful.

4) Quick FX Eyelift cream – I just wanted to try this one to know if it’s really helpful to get rid of eye problems. It promises to help reduce the appearance of lines (which I’m really afraid to have. Lol), dark circles (I actually do not have a problem with that, because I don’t have dark circles) and puffiness (oh, this one I have!), it helps refine and tone areas around eyes. Hopefully this is effective.

5) Nail polishes (Chic in violet grainy, La Belle in ash gray, Sassy in strawberry pink) – well, I’m really obsessed with nail polishes! I have a collection and I just find these colors really cute. These are sold at a cheap price, not above Php. 35 each. ^-^

6) GLAM nail stickers – I think this is really cute and I want to try this one. Getting a nail art on a nail spa / salon is expensive, and this nail art comes at a cheap price. You don’t have to go to a nail salon to have cute nails!

`Till next mini haul post! 

Film : Triangle (2009)

Triangle (2009)

Written and Directed  by: Christopher Smith

Starring: Melissa George, Michael Dorman, Rachael Carpani, Emma Lung and Liam Hemsworth

I watched this movie together with my family and Ate's boyfriend. Since, Ate's bf is into psychological movies like me, we decided to watch this film amongst all the other movies he brought along with him. Well, I couldn't say it's the BEST movie I've seen so far, but I definitely liked this. You know when you're watching psychological themed films, questions will always pop into your head (I've been saying this a lot of times). And as a matter of fact, I'm still quite puzzled with this movie till now. I'm not sure if my assumptions were right. LOL. And tell yah what, I barely slept the night after watching this movie. The scenes keep on flashing in my head, and I even dreamed about this. I was part of the movie daw! Ang saya, diba? LOL.

I am not familiar with the cast, except for Liam Hemsworth. The lead actress, Melissa George looks like Rachel McAdams, I thought it was her when I first saw the trailer on YouTube. In all fairness to Ms. George, she's a good actress. She's quite convincing as a... uhm... A psychotic.. disturbed bitch? LOL. Her character Jess, is a fierce bitch. I love the part when she's battling with her "other self". I'm not going into details with this one because it might spoil you! All I can say is this film is an interesting one. And after you watched it, it might give you a lot of questions too. 

Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.

Satur-date @ Star City

Yesterday was my first time at Star City. Not really a fan of amusement parks, but nonetheless, it was so much fun. Well, I guess being with my friends will always be fun. :) We didn't get to ride all the rides, but I really enjoyed. I got to ride one extreme ride and that is the "Surf Dance".

Waiting in the queue of the Blizzard ride.

Us being silly.

Being more silly.

Me, Donna and Jackie.

We just love being silly and goofy.
Inside the Ferris wheel. I forgot how they call it.

And then, we are only four. LOL

Psychological Thriller

Lately, nahihilig ako sa panonood ng psychological thriller movies. Well, dahil na rin sa impluwensya ng jowa ng kapatid ko. LOL. But seriously, it is that genre of movie that I'm so into right now. Ang saya kasi no'ng tipong napapaisip ka kung ano ang susunod na eksena, kung ano ang susunod na mangyayari. While watching the film, you get to ask yourself with a lot of questions. At masarap sa pakiramdam na `yong mga tanong sa isip mo ay nasasagot kapag natapos na ang pelikula. Though, most of the psychological thriller films I've seen so far do not have the kind of endings like a normal film. It's up to your own conclusion. Hanggang sa katapusan ng pelikula, mapapaisip ka pa rin.

Before the new year had started, I've come to watched some psychological films, that I must say, are indeed beautifully made and mind-boggling.

Memento

(2000)

Directed by : Christoper Nolan

Based on : Memento Mori by Jonathan Nolan

Starring : Guy Pearce (who looks like Brad Pitt in this movie), Carrie-Ann Moss, Joe Patoliano

**Ang ganda ng movie na 'to. At first naguguluhan ako, but after seryosohin nang maigi ang movie, naintindihan ko na ang daloy ng istorya. Kung hindi ka mahilig sa pyschological films medyo mahihirapan kang intidihin ito. Kakaiba kasi ang sequencing nito.

The Machinist
(2004)

Directed by: Brad Anderson

Written by : Scott Kosar

Starring : Christian Bale

**Kudos to Christian Bale! Imagine that, he lost a lot of weight just for this movie! Not all actors would do that just for the sake of playing the role. He was an amazing actor. Ang napansin ko kay Señor Bale (as he was often called by fans), he made sure that he gets into the character of his role. Siya iyong tipo na, kapag ito ang role niya, kapani-paniwala na siya iyong tao sa role niya, hindi siya si Christian Bale na umaarte lang. If you get what I mean. May mga actors kasi na di mo madi-diffirenciate ang mga sarili nila sa mga characters na pino-portray nila. Kaya nga bilib talaga ako dito kay Señor Bale, eh.

These movies are both interesting. IF you have time, I suggest that you watch it. Matsa-challenge talaga ang utak mo. `Eto talaga iyong tipo ng mga pelikula na gusto kong panoorin. Hindi siya nakaka-bobo! Pramis!

We've Only Just Begun

This is my song for my future groom/hubby, if ever I'll get to snag one. ♥. I think this is so perfect.

We've Only Just Begun

~Carpenters~

We've only just begun to live

White lace and promises

A kiss for luck and we're on our way

We've only begun

Before the risin' sun, we fly

So many roads to choose

We'll start out walkin' and learn to run

And yes, we've just begun

Sharing horizons that are new to us

Watching the signs along the way

Talkin' it over, just the two of us

Workin' together day to day, together

And when the evening comes, we smile

So much of life ahead

We'll find a place where there's room to grow

And yes, we've just begun

Sharing horizons that are new to us

Watching the signs along the way

Talkin' it over, just the two of us

Workin' together day to day, together, together

And when the evening comes, we smile

So much of life ahead

We'll find a place where there's room to grow

And yes, we've just begun

Happy 2014!!!

Happy New Year everyone! This is some kind of a late post, because, hello? It's January 3rd already. Anyway, gusto ko lang magkaroon ng first post ang 2014 ko kaya I decided to write something on here.

Akalain mo `yun, naka-94 entries ako for 2013? Iyan na ang pinakamarami kong post ever. Nawa'y mas dumami pa ngayong taon. Feeling blogger ako, eh.

Last year, wala naman akong masyadong masasabi na bonggang kaganapan sa buhay ko, except sa naoperahan ako, `yun lang. Haha! Meron pa palang milestone sa buhay ko, modesty aside, pakiramdam ko talaga, maganda `yung pagkakasulat ko (well, for me lang naman) sa story ni Jaeden at Louise (Once And For Always) and well, I could say that it's my favorite amongst all other stories I've written so far. Kaya heto ako ngayon, hindi ko alam if I'm doing the right thing for Micky's story. Haay. It's always, like this, no? Ewan ko rin, eh XD. Alam mo `yung feeling na kailangang mas maganda ang story niya kasi may ibang tao na umaasa na maganda rin siya? I hate disappointing others kasi. Huhu. Kaya tuloy ngayon naaaning ako. LOL.

Pero iba na lang pagusapan natin. This 2014, I promise to be a little bit stricter on dieting. I wanna achieve that Victoria's Secret Angel body. That banging body. Haha. Parang imposible pa rin, kasi I'm not sure if I'm allowed to exercise/work out na. I have to consult my doctor first about this.Medyo excited naman ako to work out. Sabay gano'n? Bawal na ang tatamad-tamad this 2014. Haha. Saka, I hate seeing myself in the mirror, looking bloated and fat. So fugly. LOL. Nakakasawa na maging mataba! Sana talaga sipagin na rin ako sa pagda-diet. I promise din this year to be more masipag in writing. Yes. I want to take this seriously. Hiyang-hiya naman ako na 1 novel per year lang si Yaney Matsumoto. O, di ba? Ako na ang tamad kasi. Dapat madagdagan ang 1 novel per year na `yan. Pero higit sa lahat, sana matapos ko na story ni Micky para ma-submit ko na before 3rd week of January. Ang tagal ko na kayang sinusulat `yon. Since late October pa `ata. Also, I will try my very best to refrain from using too much of the internet. Lalo na ang Facebook. `Yang Facebook na `yan ang panira sa writing career ko, eh. Basta sana magawa ko talaga `yan.

So far, iyan pa lang naman ang naiisip ko. Ayy, sana pala this year maka-travel ako out of the country. Sayang naman ang passport kong malapit nang ma-expire nang hindi ko pa nagagamit. Hirap pa namang mag-renew.

Wala na akong ibang maisip na talakayin dito, pero bukod sa lahat nang nabanggit ko sa itaas, pinakagusto ko sa lahat, maging kamukha ni Miranda Kerr! LOL.
