Here we come Hondori~!

by Jein FrondaLeave a Comment on Here we come Hondori~!

We plan to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary at Hondori, Hiroshima. Just me, my hubby and my little princess. It’s our very first time to get out without Mamu and others.

First time to get out. First time to spend the day with just the three of us. First time to get out without the car, just riding a train. First time to go to Hondori, where places are full of shopping malls and restaurants. First time to ride a street car.
Oh~well, Let me introduce the Hondori Street in Hiroshima.

Hondōri (本通?) is a commercial area in Naka-ku, Hiroshima, Japan, which centers on the Hondōri street which today is a shopping arcade. Hondōri, which means “Main Street”, runs from Hatchōbori to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. The entire shopping area along Hondōri was destroyed by the 1945 atomic bombing, due to the blast and fire. Shimomura Jewelers, located in a reinforced concrete building with an iconic clock tower, was severely damaged but like a number of concrete buildings in Hiroshima, it partially survived. The blast caused its side walls to severely tilt over. The Teikoku Bank building also survived the blast, although its roof collapsed, a wall was destroyed, and it received other structural damages. By May 1950, the Teikoku Bank building had been restored and the Takaki Bakery (Andersen Bakery) opened in the building in 1967.

In the 1950s, Hondōri was reconstructed and now it is a modern shopping arcade, which connects the Peace Memorial Park, across Rijō-dōri, to PARCO (shopping center/department store) and Hatchōbori. Hiroshima’s Hiroden (street cars) stop at the Hondōri Tram Stop. The Astram Line also serves Hondori, with the Hondōri Station as a terminal station.Okonomi-mura, located near the east end of Hondōri, was the top food theme park destination for families in Japan according to an April 2004 poll.

OUR TRAIN TICKETS (FROM MIHARA TO HIROSHIMA)

It was super exciting! When we already arrived at Hiroshima Train Station, we are kinda worried because we doesn’t even know where the heck is the street car to take us at Hondori Street. Since we are not good in speaking and reading ‘Japanese’, but thank god to the Tourist Guide, he spoke a plenty  of english that’s why we are finally ride the right street car.

Finally, we arrived at Hondori Street. When we are about to crossed the pedestrian lane, someone just caught my attention, the Bride is having a pictorial in pedestrian line. So I take a peek and shot her through my iPhone cam.

LOOK AT THE BRIDE, RUNNING BEAUTIFULLY IN PEDESTRIAN LINE.

And now we can say, ‘Hello, Hondori Street!, make us fun.’

Here’s the Hondori Street at the very first sight.
I so love this place, such a great place to shop and have some fun,
but just make sure you have money to spent.

AFTER SHOPPING, WE WENT TO THE PLACE WHERE THE ATOMIC BOMB WAS HAPPENED.

THE HIROSHIMA CASTLE COUPLE OF HUNDRED METERS FROM HYPOCENTER.
ME AND LITTLE PHOBE AT PEACE MEMORIAL PARK.
MAKE A RING ON THIS PATH IS A SIGN Of PEACE FOR EVERY CHILDREN
WHO DIED IN ATOMIC BOMB.
HUBBY (BABOY) AND MY LITTLE PHOEBE RINGING THE PEACE BELL.
AFTER TOURING THE HIROSHIMA PARK, WE RIDE A RIVERS BOAT.
PHOEBE REALLY ENJOY IT!

THEN SPENDING THE NIGHT WITH STARBUCKS COFFEE AND JUST HAVING A TAKE OUT MEAL IN MC DONALDS TO EAT WHILE WE’RE SPENDING A RIDE ON THE TRAIN GOING HOME.  IT’S A SUPER BLASTS OF FUN! WAIT FOR OUR COME BACK, HONDORI.

SUPER THUMBS UP!

Meet with the professionals

by Jein FrondaLeave a Comment on Meet with the professionals

One day, my friends say I should sign up or register in Model Mayhem, so I can find more people who are professional or maybe an XDEAL or a PAID deal session that i can join.

So rawr! I do sign up right away. It was’nt so easy to register, you’re description must be accurate and strict to their rules. When i already register, I did EXPLORE, UPLOAD IMAGE of my make up portfolio, TRY the STATUS, and MAKING FRIENDS.
They had casting there, so you can see who are in needs in Make Up Artist, oh well when i click the search, many professional is looking for make up artist, but of course more on XDEAL, but the good thing in XDEAL, first it makes you more challenge, second it will also increase your self confidence beyond your work, third having a benefits like the picture /images for your portfolio and lastly, you will meet professional strangers hehe and making friends with them. Is it good right?
Then, maybe a week past, some photographer message me If I am willing to have an XDEAL shoot, at first I am much excited, but when he said If it’s okay If the location is too far from me, I decided not to join, sigh. 😦
But, I saw a casting in Multiply as i remember, XDEAL, and the location is near from me, so I message Sir Carwei, so I ask if I can still join the XDEAL, and he replied yes, so we begin with exchanging messages and giving our numbers as well.
So Carwei, contact me for the schedule, the final venue and the theme for their shoot. It was a Glam and Fashion shoot. He give me PEGS so I can have an idea for the shoot.
So the day has come, nervous coz it was my first time to have work with them. I expected to be the model is Karen Bordador, an FHM Vixens, but when they arrived, they already three of them, Karen also join her friends in the shoot, why not, it would be more fun.
It was really tired day, I make up the three models in that day,but still I enjoying the essence of make up. I met the photographers, Sir Carwie, Lester (the one who ask me first in Model Mayhem), Marlowe and Lester wife, also the three models, Karen Bordador, FHM Vixens, her friends Charisse and Dottie.
When I saw the outcome of the shoot, my tiredness are gone, still OVERWHELMED and FULL. 🙂
Thanks much guys and I do had a great fun, Hoping for the next shoot. 🙂
Here some snapshot in our shoot;

The AVANT GARDE session.

by Jein FrondaLeave a Comment on The AVANT GARDE session.

My first make up trial for an Avant Garde at Intramuros De Manila.
It is challenging, tired and fun.

Having a full of passion on my make up twists makes me feel so overwhelmed.
My model is my japs cousin. She says she want a different make up for the shoot, so I decided to make an Avant Garde style. 
Every time I had a make up session, I used my own imagination to make it fabulous even you are a professional make up artist, it is also important that you are also concerned about the clients suggestion, especially onn their wedding or debut or any events but depends, if the session has a theme.
Each day I am still learning and exploring for make up artistry and it was so much fun!

A Very Special Day.

by Jein FrondaLeave a Comment on A Very Special Day.
SAVE THE DATE! DEC. 05, 2009
God always had a plan to meet two person and
to bond as a husband and wife.
Even we had experiences good and bad times.
And a lot of sacrifices and consequences to face in our life.
Still, god has a plan to live happily ever after.
It’s our Wedding day.
Wedding, but not a Church Wedding, but a simple wedding as
Civil Wedding that can be remembered forever.

Baboy and I planned to have a civil wedding first before we will get married at church, our simply reason is we want to focused on our baby daughter needs, and her one and only baptismal events, because after our wedding, in a week will be her baptisms. That’s why we spent all the money that we had to her baptismal.

Our wedding is a really a busy day, specially us and my mom.

Our wedding held in our house, so everyone was there to witness and celebrate our very special day.

Civil wedding Ceremony begins, all you hear is the voice of reverent who’s giving a word of god and ceremony.

When the reverent say some funny message, we all laughed.
We don’t know if we are nervous or not, but maybe a bit because of the ambiance that surrounds us and of course we know this is the moment we are waiting for.

We started wearing the rings as a sign of our love and then the moment that we will kiss as a groom and bride.

And guess what? after we end kissing, they are shouted for more, and of course we did haha. 🙂

it was really an overwhelming day even it’s our simplest wedding day.

Thanks for those who attend & greets to our wedding day.
Thanks much for my mom and my parents in law.
And of course Thank you god, for this wonderful moment that you’ve given to us.

Here’s our sample souvenirs and wedding invites

Yippee.. it’s my little angel Baptismal day! 🙂

Since, I am also making an invitation/s for any events, I really decided to make a baptismal invitation for my baby, Phoebe Gaile.
I was thinking for something unique but still cute for a little one. So, of course i prepare all the materials and I am making a cutee pocket fold invites for her;
  • Baby Pink card board paper with scent
  • white special paper with butterfly design
  • brown customize ribbon with Phoebe Gaile name.
  • Special Color Parchment paper
  • Glossy Photo paper for tag/s or picture
  • Picture/Image of Phoebe
  • Of course, Ruler
  • Cutter as well
  • Double sided tape
  • and Scissor with scallop design
It was really fun making an invitation especially when it comes to your love ones or special someone. Actually, her invitation/s is really hard to make, because it’s quite m
uch detailed and a little ambitious to perfection, hehe 🙂 but it’s worth creating it for my little angel.
So here’s a snap finish of my invites that I made for her. Hope you appreciate!
