Random Underrated Find Friday Vol. 1

Filed Under: Tag You're It!

Wouldn’t it be weird to say that the inspiration for this kind of blog post series came while I was playing with my dog? Well. 😛 Today’s the first of my so called attempt to try this weekly post series, and I’ve decided to call it RUF Friday!

Should it be “Find Fridays”, or “Finds Friday” is good as it is? I think the former looks grammatically correct, but it sounds wrong when you say it out loud. Lol, is there a grammar nazi in the house? Help! 

Okay you can use either terms because the rule is.. you can have just one or a LOOOT in your post.

To get the ball rolling, here’s mine for this week… after the cut. 😉

My Favorite Things: June 2015

In a niche/brand blog, something like Blog Linkup posts are nice additions because they’re like a quick glimpse to the personal side of the person writing behind the blog. Kinda like a 5 minute get-to-know-me sort of thing. I don’t do them often, but I’m always open to joining random ones.

Anyway! A friend told me about this blog link up hosted by Raisa of Little Town and Eirene of Sleepless Romantics. Seems easy and quick to do, so I’ll give it a shot!

I was invited and introduced to this sometime last week. I was done with the draft and ready to publish.. then Eirene told me they only open submissions for posts of this blog series during the first Tuesday of the month or something. Bummer! Lol. So that makes my post invalid now.. haha. But I will still post this. I’ll just do this for myself for now, and will submit a proper one next month. 🙂 I’ll be linking them at the end of the blog in case you wanna check them out and participate too.

Another reason why I don’t do this weekly linkup post thing is because I don’t feel I’m that busy, hence not having anything relevant or interesting to share to the world. Plus the responsibility is just too much. Haha! I did a couple of Sunday Currentlys in the past but I did not keep up with it after three tries? Yeah. I feel like I am breaking bending the rules for these link ups all the time without actually meaning to, I’m sorry!

Let’s do six for my first!

Filed Under: Tag You're It!

Reading: Chicken Soup for the Soul (I’ve been meaning to finish this but I always fall asleep!)
Writing: Numbers, numbers, numbers! Listing my past and upcoming expenses. FML.

Thinking: “What else am I forgetting to do on my backlog?” Also, the beach.
Smelling: Kenzo perfume
Wishing: Money to go out so I can watch X-Men: Days of Future Past 🙁

Wearing: What I wore last night
Loving: The makeup~ I bought and have tried only once since 3 days ago. (In the photo, I’m only using lipstick though)
Wanting: The Sony A6000 mirrorless camera. Oh my god would you look at it, so so so so so pretty! I cannot stop watching videos about it.
Needing: Money so I can buy that camera 😆
Feeling: Hungry. I think I’m gonna order a pizza tonight.. or not. We’ll see.
Clicking: The publish button

Life has been uninteresting lately. Cooped up here in my room for the entire week. Maybe I’ll start working on my portfolio when I’ve lost my sanity and become THAT bored.. but for now, TV has been very entertaining. Also, there have been plans for out of town trips with different set of friends in the coming months, so that is something I am looking forward to. Keeping myself on house arrest to save up some money, haha. Yup.
Little backstory about the downtime of my portfolio: Back in January there was a series of hacks on my websites and all the websites under my host. The website got too damaged in the process and I felt lazy to put everything up every time it got hacked. Oh well, it was time for a major renovation anyway.

By the way, I covered an event I went to two weeks ago! My write-up is published over at When in Manila! Check it out here: SOL Republic Headphones: Manila’s Key to Hearing the Soundtrack of Life 

Sorry, let me humble brag about this for once. This doesn’t (EVER) happen to me.. so I’d like to share this small accomplishment with you all. ❤ There are probably a few errors, but I tried my best to be informative and keep my personal style in the writing.

That’s all for now. Lemme get back to my backlogs, but wait.. after TV time! 😆

Let’s Play Tag: Liebster Award

by — 12 Comments
Filed Under: Tag You're It!

I woke up this morning and saw an email from Hello Lysa, telling me that she tagged me to be one of the receivers of the Liebster award. I have seen this “award” around the local blogging network but I don’t think I was ever tagged in these things before. It was surprising because, I don’t get interaction/attention other than the occasional comments from my friends here on my blog. Haha!

I suppose the purpose of this award is to encourage camaraderie between blog readers? Thanks for tagging me! I’ll get to answering the questions now.

1. Describe your blog in five words.
Certainly not a typical blog
2. How would you describe yourself?
I dislike describing myself because I am generally an uninteresting person. That’s why I have a blog in the first place. *cue canned laughter*
3. Since when did you started blogging and why?
I started blogging in 2005 because other than trying to keep my post count up by actively and sincerely posting around 5 different messageboard/forums for teens then (it was the “tumblr” or “real online community” at that time, wow it’s been YEARS!), blogging was the next best thing us students could get in to make friends online.
4. What do you love to write about?
In this blog, So Stellar, I post my photography from the events I go to, sometimes reviews on things I buy and thought would be nice to write about in case people Google for it before they decide to buy. Basically things I want Google to find. My other blog contains rants and posts not really suitable for the general audience. 😛
5. What is the story behind your URL?
I became a sucker to those “click here to get and iPod” ads back in 2005, before I know it, my cc was charged for 2 years worth of domain and webhosting. The name is from an Incubus song, I just added the “so” for the phrase to make sense.
6. What are your future plans with your blogging career?
9 years later, I still don’t see all of this as a “career”. I still see it as just blogging for the sake of disseminating information, or blogging for myself not for an audience. I’ve not gained anything nor gotten rich over the years. I don’t know how to answer this.
7. What are your hobbies?
I am literally infront of the laptop most of the time in a day, from Twitter to GMail. When I’m off the computer, I’d be watching TV or sleeping.
8. What kind of music do you listen to?
Alternative music. Check my last.fm (Do people still use this?! I do!!), or the sidebar area of my recent listened-to songs. 🙂
9. What kind of books do you read?
I use to read a lot of YA and only YA, now I am trying to move forward and broaden my literary interests. Harhar! I bought  a lot of books over the last few months but didn’t keep and ended up selling them after.
10. What kind of movies do you watch?
Movies that hit you hard in the psyche. 😛
11. If you could be a celebrity in a day, who would it be and why?
I couldn’t come up w/ a quick answer for this one but I thought of Michael Fassbender for some reason. 😆
—————-

 

Though I won’t be participating in such a way that I will tag a bunch of people at the end of the post, and post my own questions for these people to answer. I don’t think I have enough readership to do that anyway, lol.

But hey, this was fun to do! I loved answering the questions.
