These Little Thoughts

Journal Entry: Sun May 4, 2008, 1:00 PM

It's amazing how a couple of weeks have already gone by after a few winks. sometimes I feel a slight jolt of panic thinking that summer vacation's coming to an abrupt close, so I regularly check the calendar to relieve myself. School has turned me into a such paranoid nut-case. I'm just really bad at time management, suffice it to say, and especially these days, it's just hard not to lose track of time.

Remember the 90's?

A couple of weeks ago, Sandee~littlesailboat, Nejin~ceruleanmorning, Kat~moonlightflight, Isa~sabotenshi, and I partook in a 90's themed photo shoot. The boys were unavailable at the time so it was just us girls prancing about the fields of UP Diliman in our all-out 90's warped garb. Inspired by tv shows we grew up with...

(The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Clarissa, Ghost Writer, Hey Arnold!, The Babysitter's Club, Nancy Drew, and Arthur- just to name a few)

...and the awesome 80's High School retelling of Freaks and Geeks, we decided to portray the cliche'd characters of the time.

Allow me to introduce the female cast:
Photographs by Sandee ~littlesailboat, Kat ~moonlightflight, Nejin ~ceruleanmorning
Edited by me



Sandee as the intellectual detective girl. With a meticulous eye that rivals Sherlock Holmes, this Mathlete/Science whiz can, with her unfailing investigative methodologies, decipher anything from alien markings, ghost text trails, midsummer murders, and even the age old question of who stole the cookie from the cookie jar.



Nejin as the brooding pseudo-goth girl. Her entire wardrobe is black and white. She speaks in unfeeling whispers about the voidless realm that is the world around her. Hardly the type to utter a word other than to prophesize one's impending doom, her only friend and confidant is her cousin.



Nejin's cousin. During a tragic safari trip, he was ravaged to pieces by seven lions. His remains are all but lost except for his severed hand which Nejin carries with her where ever she journeys.



Kat as the hip and popular girl whom everyone little girl dreams of becoming. She's just your average, opinionated, super trendy, and outrageously fashionable teen idol trying to cope with the totally hard challenges of life and growing up. She's always there for her friends and she's just oh, so super duper. Omg.



Isa as the resident tomboy. She's sporty and tough, and her wild red hair expresses her funky demeanor perfectly, plus the fact that she can beat your ass. She let's no one get in her way, especially not some stupid neighborhood gang of punk boys. Despite her intimidating, ass-kicking rough persona, she is deep inside, yearning to be one of the girls and in the process, catch the attention of one boy in particular.



China as the strongest woman in the world. Scientifically proven to be a mutant by Sandee, her most revealed powers other than strength are heat vision, hawk-like eyesight with range far beyond any prancing Legolas fruitcake ever had (quadrupled with the combined use of spectacles and steam-punk goggles), and the ability to completely vanish from sight when no one is looking. China derives her super powers from the red and white underwear that is her costume, a 80/20 blend of adamantium and Egyptian cotton.


The girls in action.

More of this series shall follow when Tracy and the boys, Miguel, Kiks, Rayson, Nicco Dans and maybe Fran can possibly join us.

*snowpeachdrop:iconsnowpeachdrop: May 2, 2008, 12:44:41 PM
Uhuh...stilts, pointy teeth, and a fake guy's body. Quite far out, don't you think? :P
It's not matter of not wanting to cosplay Kenpachi, but more of how I completely look nothing like him physically and thus forcing to portray him myself is just not going to work out at all.....unless I magically come up with some Total Recall stunts. :P

Really? Lol, that's even stranger because being in the Philippines, our location shots are actually just from around Manila. :P I've noticed some people do say that our photographs look like they were taken abroad or something, but we really just work with what we find around here.

Be it a sidewalk, a school, a fancy garden...wherever really. :P It's just a matter of arranging the shot so the background works with the subjects and the photograph looks believable. :)
