Another year wiser…
So how have you been?
Me? I was neck deep in work and more importantly, in offline life, since the last time I blogged:
1. Arn and I had new water pipes installed in our home. The original pipes were more than 20 years old and one of them had leaked, resulting to a P4k water bill, sigh. The good news is that having new pipes brought forth a surge of water we didn’t know we had – and it came just in time for summer, how about that?;
2. We filed our ITRs – a whole month before the deadline too! *pats self on the back*;
3. I art-directed shoots galore (at least 4 shoots a week) for the upcoming issue of WE. Many many behind-the-scene pics are chronicled semi-regularly on our phlog;
4. I worked on the Claycakes website – it’s quite deep so as of now it’s about 90% done. If you’re getting married, do consider booking with Karla. Her cakes are always fun and witty and best of all, they taste reaaaally yummy. I was (secretly) craving for her chocolate/lemon crumb cake with fudge topping the whole time I was working on the site – yun pala Marbee asked her to make me one as a gift when…
5. I turned thirty- another year older last week. (:

My Claycakes birthday cake, a gift from Marbs — how thoughtful! I told her “it’s the wedding cake Arn and I never had.”

Yay, my very first CafePress “Pinoy Street Food” model, no less than Ms. Marite Irvine of one of Manila’s top ad agencies. (Thanks for giving her the apron as a wedding present in the first place, Shei!).
If you (or if you know anyone who’s) purchased anything from either of my little shops, please please don’t hesitate to send me a photo showing the item in use (ahem, Luis P!). I’d also love to know how the quality of the printing is since I don’t have access to the items myself.

TMC shirts in American Beauty red, Atmosphere, Moroccan Blue, and Rattan.
We interrupt the rampant Andong Agimat plugging to make way for another important Arn book-related announcement:The Mythology Class shirts will soon be available at all BRANDED SHIRTS outlets in SM Megamall, SM Southmall, SM Manila, Alabang Town Center, and MarketMarket. Get them while they’re hot! (Click here to view larger images.)

..and what was just a world is a star.

Hi Cyn! Oopsies about them photos, I’ll take some mug shots this weekend — bad hair day this week in Vegas (as in). The shirts are really nice, the Hanes beefy tees are thick and of the better quality variants. As for the printing, they have so far survived multiple trips to the washing machine and dryer and has held up pretty well. The colors are still vibrant. As for the design, well what can I say, they are top notch! I break necks whenever I wear ‘em to places where Filipinos hangout (ie. Goldilocks and Jollibee – yihee!). Oks ba ang review? Hehe! will send pics soon. Promise.

After I read somewhere that Andong Agimat will be available at National Bookstore, I was stalking the nearest branch(SM Dasma) from my house here in Cavite but until now they don’t have it in stock. Luckily, I found and bought my copy at Comic Quest in Alabang. My friends in Cebu are asking when it will be hitting their shores.
And now, I’m in my quest to have it signed by Arnold. Did I miss the book signing already?
