Beauty project

I thought that I will never visit my derma after more than a year of neglect. It seems that my obsession with the new school year and finishing my bestselling Guide to HEDCen have taken the top priority. Then finally, I decided to give face another chance.

Before:   Imagine the skin of santol.  corrugated and bumpy.  imagine ripe mangoes when signs of decay is imminent.

During:   Imagine applying egg whites and worst on your face- that's the peeling chemical, shrinking the skin till its dried up and bursting, not to mention a face so battered after a white head is delivered from a tiny pore that would not budge!!! And imagine how many were forced to come out, delivered by a salivating, obsessed and unrelenting skin midwife of some sort.

The best is when your face starts to crack and layer upon layer of skin begin to s h e d d d... you pull on a thin filament and you hear it crackle a little bit.  this is so addicting that you would not want your peeling to ever stop.  The skin is dead and you roll your fingers gently during and after a bath and they yield like... dead skin!  Peeling does not seem to stop and you find skin on your blouse, on your chest and on your lap.. on the page of your book you last read or on a document you signed.

After:  New skin for a while.  Not as exciting as the process of getting there.  I'd  say it's good to shed.  I see guavas from the tree outside my window as I write.  Still guava face but the younger version!!!  hahahaha!

Witch"s Brew

I am brewing in my cauldron something you are not to know yet.  It started with an idea I had some three years back.  Things seem to unfold.  Am I being shoved to this?  Oh well, if this is going to make me old and wrinkled, I am not going to buy it!  I need resources!  I need people!  I need money!!!  Ideas, I have plenty.  Too many I have to trim them down.  Well somethings are offered on a silver platter.  Others are offered by the changing times.  Some are fruits of dreams and imaginings, others are as real as wine.  Aging it.

can you read my mind?

you will never know...
Ta-ta!

the story of a house on an anthill

This is the house on the Anthill.  I had to give it a name so that Jacob can use the reference when he talks about his house.

It looks huge for a little child and also because it is open to the sky.

it reminds me of the structure of a ferris wheel maybe because the crosspieces are still visible.

i tried photographing its beautiful and honest structure.


and parts of crude machines and tools like this eye
a useful pail


a hardworking wheel







teeth
and more mean-looking grinders
Yes, Jacob's Mr. Dizzy is a piece of art!


looking good

this is the road that Jacob has imagined he will build someday
the visit and expedition is now over.  Jacob and Ima are heading back to Frogglerocks.

Last August 10, the family of raccoons, now ants,  moved in their new house.  Ana and Lloyd with the two animals or insects, Jacob and Jose are the new residents of Azucena St., Beverly Hills Subdivision, Antipolo, Rizal a.k.a. AntHill!
