Let's do this, 2013

Wow. Just wow. In a few hours, we'll {well, here in the Philippines} be saying goodbye to the year 2012, for 2013 is just around the corner! This year was probably one of the shortest, busiest, yet incredibly memorable years ever. 

• Wicked. No words. My family and I still go crazy every time we remember the incredible experience. I still get shivers every time I listen to the soundtrack. Definitely my favorite musical for the entire year.
• Joined 2 mini camps in a year! Through CISV, I have met the most amazing friends ever! Next summer's mini camp will be my fifth and *sniff* my last. Thank you to all my CISV friends for making this year memorable! You guys are the best!
• Faaaaavorite learning moment of the year has got to be #Blogworthy. I've learned so much from that experience and I definitely found my blogging style! Thank you, Ate Arriane, Ate Maine, and all my Blogworthy classmates for that awesome experience!
• Never thought I'd be this close to my sister more than ever. There was this one time when my lolo told us that we weren't sisters. We were best friends. I guess you could say that, since she is my only classmate as of the moment. Thanks Kayla for being the bestestest baby sister ever!

Well that's what I'm extremely grateful for this year! How about you guys? What are your favorite 2012 moments? Happy new year, my fellow astronauts!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas, everyone! {Or in my language, Maligayang Pasko!} I hope you're all having a wonderful time with your families. Stay safe and God bless! Happy holidays!

Love, Arielle

Tooth

Here's a watercolor painting I just finished of Tooth from Rise of the Guardians! It's definitely great to be watercolor painting again. This time, I tried the wet-on-wet technique. I'm really happy with how the artwork turned out! What do you guys think?

I have the Rise of the Guardians score!

I'm just having a really good Sunday right now because I'm listening to the Rise of the Guardians score! The movie was FANTASTIC {I watched it twice!} and I'm in love with the music. I'll be making some RotG fanart, don't you worry. I'll also be working on a post about the movie! It's a great watch with the family, so do watch while it's still in theatres! :)
