Back in the Philippines, I could only imagine what sub-zero temperatures would actually be like. Being born and bred in the tropics, the coldest sensation I've ever felt was putting my hand in our freezer. Little did I know there were definitely places way, way colder than that. Michigan winters are known to be harsh, and every day is an exercise of patience against the elements, especially for a new import like me.

the weekend with them. The 2015 Oscar-nominated shorts were playing in the Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts for a limited time, so we figured the three-hour drive out to their city was worth it. Thankfully the weather was very "cooperative" that day, and I actually got to wear a tights-and-skirt combo out without getting frostbitten. I didn't really realize how schoolgirly this outfit would be until I wore it out, haha. But hey, I'm digging it.

Definitely missing the Philippines and its beautiful summer weather these days!
