Nail art is Love

Nail art is one of the reasons I wish I was ambidextrous. This hobby makes me really busy every day, and it helps relieve stress.

There is something about painting my nails  that makes me very happy and really fulfilled whenever I see the designs I have painted my nails. This is a new discovered talent, and I want to improve it! ♥ Me, who doesn't know how to draw can actually paint nails. How cool is that. ☻

Everyday I am learning new strokes and techniques. I love the process how I learn new designs, and looking at the styles how I painted my nails, I can truly say that I am getting better everyday.

Here's my latest work: 

And these are the designs I have tried so far. ☻

Thanks Cathy for allowing me to paint your nails ☻

Oh, have I mentioned that I also painted my hubby's toenails? Haha! Sorry babe for posting this. Tee hee. 

And these are my tools. ☻

Polka Loca

Inspired by Kate Spade's simple and yet elegant design, I have painted my nails with black polka dots. Woot woot. Nail Art is just so addicting, and I can't get enough of it. ☻I matched the nails with my cases too! ♥

I want to know you better

I remembered my dad when I watched the movie Taken , and said to myself i wish I had a father like him. Don’t get me wrong, I love my dad – and I cannot change the fact that he’s my father. I owe my life to him; I wouldn’t be in this world without him. But if I could change my destiny and have control to things that are happening to me, I would get “closer” to my father.  I would hold my dad and tell him how much I am longing for a father’s love.

I am not reluctant to tell that I grew up from a not so happy family; I grew up only seeing my dad once or twice a week, but every time we cross paths; I am afraid or timid to be him. I never felt any connection; or any affection from him. Though deep inside I know how much I love him, but I am afraid to show it to him. There’s this barrier that makes me stay from him. I don’t know what that is; but I know I love him.

I miss him – even if we haven’t had the chance the bond like a normal father and daughter would do. I don’t know if that’s the right term to say; if it’s missing or longing. I long for a father’s love; father’s care or whatever you call it.

I can still remember, the moment he danced with me when I got married with the love of my life. That feeling was such a great bliss. I never wanted to let him go that time of my life. When he held my hand and embraced me made me feel really secured. It was one of the most memorable dances of my life, and I will forever treasure that moment.

Dad/Papa/Itay/Ama -  I want to tell you that I love you. There may be some things that keep us disengaged from each other, but I want you to know that I am longing for you. I hope before things get too late, we can patch things up. I want to share my stories with you. How I grew up, the things that I hate, the things that make me scared. I want to share how I love being married, how I love life and how I learn to appreciate everything that I have. I want to tell you the things that I love, and the things that make me happy. I want to share the things that make me sad and the things that make me feel really bad.  I want you to know me more dad, more than anyone else in this world.

I want to know you better too. The things that keep you busy, the story of your life, how you met mom and other things that make you happy. Hence, I want to know you better. 

Loving my short fingernails

Cherry Blossom :D kuno. haha

Happy November! ;)

I've been into nail polish lately - as in i enjoy every minute changing the colors of my nails. I find myself smiling whenever I play and mix the colors. I didn't know that painting nails is such a great stress reliever!

Designs are an added factor too, but since I am still not that good with "dotting" and "designing" my nails, most of the art I've painted are quite not noticeable. Hehe

Thank you to youtube as I was able to find a couple of tutorial focusing on short nails; while most of the tutorials are for long nails, i tried applying them on my nails too. Surprisingly, the outcome was beautiful and I can already call it an art; (except that I wasted too much cotton balls and a bottle of acetone) hehe

See, practice makes it look even better. The picture of my nails that I posted on instagram earned 300 plus likers! Now that gives me enough reason to add nail art as a part of my hobby and past time too! ❤
