Have you ever had clothes stolen? It’s annoying. You see, most of my laundry goes to my folks’s place to be washed every weekend. The laundry is hung to dry out in the carport which is kept closed by a flimsy gate and a lock. Not far from our street (in Valley View) is a “squatter’s area” (I’ve actually never been in there but that’s where our laundry woman lives). They’ve stolen some of my dad’s/brother’s clothes before and they’ve started taking mine now =/
I have a lot of clothes (more than I can wear, really) but I always know when something is missing from my closet. I know it shouldn’t bother me so much because save for one top, most of them were thrifted… but I can’t help it! I’ve tried to let it go and be okay with it but it ticks me off all over again when I’m getting ready/dressed to go out.
I was looking for one of my favorite tops this morning (to wear to work) and I realized that I haven’t seen it since the last time I wore it some two months ago. Stolen, again =(
(Oh, well, at least I didn’t lose a PS3.)
Anyway, to keep my mind off that (sorta):
1) The top I was looking for this morning. I absolutely adored this piece and I am very sad that it’s gone. I’m still hoping it’s just at my folks’s and that they’ve forgotten to pack and send it to the apartment, heh.
2) An Ashera cat aka the world’s most expensive cat! It’s ~36K USD and of course I want one!
3) The rope bib necklace I started almost a month ago and have yet to finish. I’m done sewing the rope together, I just need to buy the right beads! As you can see, the ones I got don’t match the rope. I keep forgetting to see if there’s a Carolina’s in Farmer’s Cubao.
4) Future hair DIY project, or at least something similar. I hope I can find the right kind of pink dye I want!
Hi, I'm Helga Weber and welcome to my personal site. I'm 25 and in the process of learning how to make adventurous life choices. I dislike old people but I love grandma clothes. My goal in life is to build a ball pit right next to my bed. Currently searching for the perfect house coat. My lover is the greatest. 
helga, how long does it take before you can color hair again?

There really isn’t a minimum time daw, it all depends on the condition of your hair? Like some lolas dye their hair every two weeks lol, but mostly to cover their roots.
It’s bleaching that you can’t do very often.
Mine takes two months. I don’t like roots, they are evil!!! Pag nag 1-inch na yung roots ko or when it starts bothering me, I color my hair again.

I totally understand you! Our previous helper stole one of my kamisons (leche, kamison na nga lang!) which was my favorite kase I can use it when I go out with a blazer/cardigan. Then another helper stole my favorite pink racerback. Kainis!
And oh, one of our ex-helpers stole my sister’s favorite underwear! lol

I have a jar of Manic Panic in cotton candy pink. I have yet to find time to use it, lol.

I know the feeling, I still can’t find my FORK EWE CORK SUCKER shirt.
When I’m looking for my clothes I usually find them at my brother’s laundry basket ‘CAUSE HE STEALS MY CLOTHES ALL THE TIME and I don’t know how he fits in them ’cause he’s six inches taller than me.

If it isn’t exactly Carolina’s there’s a couple that are alike.

Guh I had my clothes stolen (an entire sampayan of my favorite band shirts) in cebu when I was living in this seedy neighborhood by myself (cheap apartments, what’re ya gonna do), and yeah, even if it was like 3 or so years ago it still pisses me off! I know how you feel. Boo.
Also, that kitty looks like a small cheetah. It will probably bite you in the middle of the night just for having the nerve to buy it lol.

I’ve been wanting to do a rope bib necklace! Can’t wait to see what it looks like finished. Also OMG I want to see the pink hair!

[...] If you follow me on Twitter or Tumblr, you’ll know that I bleached my hair blonde last night. This isn’t the first time I bleached my own hair as I had already done this three weeks ago (I think) and I left the bleach on for four hours (because I am hardcore). The point in all this is to get my hair light and white enough to dye the ends pink (please refer to the fourth photo in this entry). [...]
