I've been searching for a girly camera bag since I got Teej coz my heart screams for girlyness that puts my Black Tamrac bag to shame. It's not that I'm not grateful coz I remember myself asking for that bag as a freebie back then..but... BLACK? T_T

So, I've looked everywhere for that perfect camera bag for myself! I searched online for "pink DSLR bag" and Google has always been the sweetest thing ever. It took me to http://www.hellolulu.com where I found this really cute HelloLulu Avis Camera Bag. ^_^ I was totally attracted by the color, when I checked the price, I was like, ok... kinda close to what I paid for an equally girly customized laptop bag So, I said to myself that I'm so gonna get this baby!

Imagine my surprise when I went to Glorietta 4 and passed by The Travel Club store, I literally stepped backwards just to make sure my eyes ain't deceiving me. Wow! I was stoked! The bag that I used to check online each night was in my hands now! I immediately bought it right away! My face was beaming that night~ ^_^ I got the pinkest DSLR baaaaggg~ :3

I tried wearing the bag (before I bought it) inside the store and kept on comparing it with the other model, the Emmerson bag. I could say that one's for a girly PRO. Hahaha! I mean, for a casual shooter like me who uses the camera for a hobby, that bag's too big and spacious. Based on the website, the Emmerson bag can hold a lot of stuff like additional lenses, external flash, battery grip..you name it. When I tried it, it looked like a duffel bag on me. For my small frame, I'd prefer the size of the Avis bag. It's somewhat the same size of the old Tamrac Velocity bag but it doesn't scream 'hey I'm a camera bag' coz it's cute enough to pass as a lunch box. :3
The bag's material is made of shiny canvas, I like that it's not too wrinkly and not prone to lint. The branding was shown all over, at the button, on zippers, inner material, and even at the side it shows a rubber HelloLulu tag. ^_^


 The dividers are removeable so I can choose whether I wanted to have two compartments inside for the camera + the extra lens..or three compartments with the camera (with the lens fitted downwards the middle compartment), the extra lens at the side and the charger+ the cords on the other side. Like i said, the padding is sturdy enough to hold the camera in place and still retain its shape.

The price online is $60, but I bought it for Php2,899.00. I've bought everything I need for this new hobby of mine LOL. The only thing that's missing on my list is....lol. A lens pen. XD

I was so excited to end my shift that day 'coz I'll be seeing my good friend, Kyonds for another foodtrippin' night at Banchetto -The Forum. If you're wondering, Banchetto means 'feast' in Italian and wow, what a feast it is when you're there. I have to say sorry to my diet that night 'coz I can't help but ogle, coz I'm completely surrounded by foods! Hahahaha - LOL. Same feeling when I'm at the junkies section at the grocery. LOL.

This is the closest venue where I am at, it's located beside The Forum, Robinsons Pioneer. The feast is open every Wednesday and Thursday only, from 9pm to 6am the next day. The other Banchetto site can be found in Ortigas and they say what's missing at The Forum can be found here at Ortigas lol. Of course I have Teej with me, I will never leave the house without him at times like this. :3

The place is packed with people (mostly from the GY shift) coming from the nearby offices, so it's kinda hard to settle for a place to eat. I had Kyonds look around for a table first while I scout the area for great food wahahaha!




 Monster Burger unwrapped. See how thick that beef is haha. Price 150.00 for the quarter pound burger. Extra Cheese and mayo not included. :P

I'll definitely comeback next week! We didn't hangout too much coz with a lot of people coming in, the seats aren't enough to accommodate them all. I'll try eating out at Banchetto Emerald Ave. next time hehe.

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing.

Oooh look at what I found!
Wow it's been AGES since I created these! OMG I missed drawing my own manga!
I found this while cleaning my old stuff and I kinda felt nostalgic LOL. You see, I've been such an anime fan ever since, then I was inspired to create my own series hahahaha! I created two, I think... but I never really get to finish them :( Change of priorities maybe..
I used to draw at my sister's old notebooks and 1 notebook contains, like 15 episodes each hahahaha, this one I found is at Episode 31 already :( so sad, I lost the others already :(
and wow! I can still draw! Hahahahaha!
