'Tis the Season (to be back on my blog)

Merry Christmas Everyone! (I know it's kinda late)

And woah I'm back on my blog again. I just feel like writing again. Christmas vacay's a bit lame this year. 

Anyways, how many of you completed the Simbang Gabi? 'Coz I did! It has been a very tradition for myself ever since I started college, and now it's my last semester at school (that was fast). Have you wished for anything after you completed it? It might sound stupid, but I believe it's working :) Just give God the right to give it to you. 

Few days to go and we're facing a new year again. Everything goes fast. How would you celebrate it? :)

From the bottom of my heart

There's just two days left and it's our last day at work today.

Last day means saying goodbye and see you soon to the people who has been your family for 3 months and a half. Leaving them and saying goodbye is like finishing the best book you've ever read, you feel happy because the story was awesome and ended great and sad because you want the book to have another part. 

Unpredictable

Happy Sunday Evening dear readers! :)

Camouflage

Have you watched Despicable Me 2? 

Well, I have so here's what I wore to watch it with my mom and dad. #perksofbeinganonlychild lol

The movie was so funny and Agnesss and the Minions soo cute!!! haha

Lost in the Woods

I can't shoot an outfit post at home or anywhere 'coz no one will take them for me :( #onlychildproblems. So I'll just share with you one of my outfits during my pre-debut photo shoot,which happened last year (these photos are vintage lol) These shots are taken by my elementary bestfriend, Samira.

Instagram: June Photo Challenge

Heeya Readers! :)

This is the thing that kept me busy the whole month on Instagram. I decided to take the challenge 'coz it's me birth month and I wanna test myself if I can complete it.

and.. 

Hooraaay for me! *sabog confetti* 'coz I finished the challenge without any missing day! As my friend would comment on one of my photo's -- consistent ah!

The Challenge List:

Insanity

Today I was at school to attend a seminar for our upcoming internship in Malaysia (Visa, dumating ka na please!) The speaker talked about "Work Ethics", they wanted to stress this out to us students to avoid the previous repetitive problems in the workplace from the older batches. 

I have a favorite word in the seminar that I am so guilty of..

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

-Albert Einstein

 I also want to share this question with you...

What Makes Your Life 100%?

Photo not mine (credits)

The speaker also stressed out that Good Attitude can lead us to success. 

"Attitudes produce Actions. Actions produce Results." -Chiao Kee

The seminar helped a lot to prepare us with our internship. I'm really excited to leave already because the speaker showed us some photos from the first batch of the students they took there. I want to gain more knowledge and experience the culture of Malaysia, they said they speak British-English (1D's accent omgg!) there so who know's I might adopt it! :) 

How's your week so far?

Toodles!

Not so Vintage

(Top and Shorts: Thrifted, Necklace: 999 Mall, Wrap Around Watch: TWB)

I wore this outfit months ago before I started my blog. I love it so much. The vintage theme for the outfit just popped in mind when I was planning it. It was perfect for that day because we visited the Museum. 

You might notice that I didn't highlight my sandals because I know it does not fit the outfit perfectly. I should really invest on good shoes from now on. 

Btw all the photos are taken via Iphone 5 and Samsung phones. We used the Camera 360 app to beautify our photos. Credits to my friends for the photos.  Me and my friends did a bit of a photo shoot that day here are some..

Toodles!

Walking in the Rain

You gotta love and hate the rain at the same time! 

I love the rain because I get to wear my pj's and sweater the whole day without a single sweat dripping in my skin. But getting stuck outside is one of the reasons I also hate it... 

We celebrated Father's Day yesterday because dad was at work last Sunday. He just got home few hours before we left. His work is very demanding, but we already got used to it..

Cookies 'n Cream Ref Cake ♥

I am currently munching something while i'm writing this post. Particularly my birthday cake and a turon (a pinoy snack made of banana). It's a lot, I know I'm getting bloated with what I'm doing but what can I do... I'm hungryyy! :P

 

Today, I'll be sharing with you what we did last night. We made another Oreo cake. Another because we already tried it during Mother's Day last month and since it's Father's Day tomorrow I told my mom that we should make another one :)

I got this recipe from the Nestle All Purpose Cream Advert that I always see on TV. It's very quick and easy to do. Perfect for those people who don't own an oven at home (like us) and loves making sweet treats. I love making desserts than cooking pastas and the like.

So, enough of the chit chats I know you're excited to see how we made it :) 

please don't mind the knife over there haha

19 'coz it's 2013

Weyhey! My very first outfit post! :)

Here's what I wore yesterday for my 19th birthday...

I really miss wearing these boots! They are not Doc Martens but it's so comfy :)

The Top I was wearing was really plain so, I DIY-ed it and added some studs at the shoulder. Though I forgot to take a photo of it. You can check out my instagram for a closer look at it. 

June Twelve

Yesterday was the 115th year of the Philippine Independence and one of my favorite days of the year.. MY BIRTHDAY! :D

This year's birthday celeb was very different from last year's grand celebration. Had a quite, simple but happy way of celebrating my 19th year with mom, dad and Harvey (my cousin slash photographer).
We decided to watch "Man Of Steel" on it's first showing day and because it's a holiday people are everywhere, lines are long so you have to wait patiently. Gateway Cineplex is the nearest cinema from our place but I told my dad we should try a different one for a change of environment. So, we went to SM North 

Here's my cousin, Harvey. I love taking him with us :)

Randomly posing at the platform

waiting for the train..

I think I got my not-looking-into-the-camera habit from my dad. haha

Splurge... in a cheaper way

I've been very satisfied this week because of what I purchased from my little money (not literally). I was able to buy the things that I wanted for so long. Consider this as my super early birthday gift to myself, I'm turning nineteen in 3 days *oh noes*

In the past two days I was in Divisoria a.k.a Temptation Island! There are a lot of bargains like 3 for 100, 4 for 100, or a cute piece for only 100php, how can you even resist them?

I don't really have a lot of branded clothes/ accessories because I cannot afford them yet. So, whenever I see cheap deals like in divi or tiangge's I easily get hypnotized and grab the chance to buy them. 

here are the things I bought, but not all of them are from divi..

The white skater skirt and printed leggings are from divi and the black checkered skater skirt is from Farmers Tiangge. 

The three for 100 accessories I was telling you, though some of these are from Girl Shoppe.

Rêve Grand?! ....

Hello there! :)
I know you've been wondering what does my blog title mean plus it's also hard to read like my name. haha. 


A brief explanation of why Rêve Grand..

I came up with this blog title because I was digging out the right words to create a catchy and unique one. It was actually for my tumblr blog. I was reconstructing my tumblr that time 'coz I've decided I would take blogging a bit more "serious" than just reblogging things that I see on my dashboard. But, I realized that blogging here is way cooler that in tumblr (no hate please, we have our own opinions), though I still post some of my random experiences there I just find blogger much easier to use (weh?) in some ways than in tumblr.

Flores De Mayo: Santacruzan

Happy Sunday! :D 

I'm here again! So, if you've read my last post I mentioned there that I am joining a Santacruzan. It happened last Friday (May, 31) at St. Ignatius Cathedral.

DIY: Fringe your Dad's Shirt...

Hello!! :D

It's Sunday again.. and I don't know, I just feel like it's time to do another DIY today. 

If you've read my first ever DIY post, on the last part I was wondering on what to do with my dad's old camo shirt. And finally I've decided to make it into a Fringe Shirt! *high pitched voice lol* 

TADAAAA! Happy girl here! :D

DIY... Give a new look to your old shirts

It was a very boring afternoon and It was my long time plan to DIY my shirts so, finally.. I did one.

TADA! 

I DIY-ED my Luigi Shirt into a Muscle Shirt! :D

WIL-LANE

Hola! Good day! :)

I don't know how am I gonna introduce myself 'coz I'm not really good at it. But lemme try..

(#selfie pure boredom in the middle of the night lol)

My name is Willane (pronounced as Will and Lane as in fast Lane. haha). Yah, I know I have a weird and hard to pronounce name. That was one of my problems in school because teachers/professors pronounce my name in different ways. I was used to it. Also my surname is hard to pronounce (hashtag Self Fact)

I'm 18 (turning 19 next month. NOOO), HRM (Hotel and Restaurant Management) Student in Far Eastern University, from Quezon City, Philippines. It's actually my last year in college (wooohooo!) and I'm taking my intership soon... I love my course so much, I enjoy everything that we do like going out of town just to check out Hotels, enjoy the food in that particular place, and be exposed on the possible things that we'll be after college. But I don't like doing Thesis work. They say our course is just a chill course, but NO! Don't Even Say that! We also experience hard times just like every course you're in. 

Okay enough of my course.. 

I like other things too like.. Reading, Dressing up, Malling (most of the time window shopping), singing, cooking and Twitter (I'm a twiiter addict). I would not elaborate all of them, my future posts will tell more about it.

actually I also love posing like a model. one of my hobbies I may say . :p

That's all for this post. See yah all next time! xx
