A Whole New Adventure with Ellips Circle of Possibilities!

Let me start off with the beginning. 

I think the new chapter of my life-long adventure started when surfing the internet became my hobby. During free time on my first year in a university, I'm usually in front of my acer netbook. Aside from surfing, I also make and edit videos, photos, and even music. Because of that hobby, I become involved with online contests. My favorite was winning in the Office of the Presidential Adviser on Peace Process blog contest. I also had a chance to meet and greet my dance crew idol, Poreotix and watch Justin Bieber's concert on a VIP seat with my sister. 

There were actually a lot more contests I joined and won but as of now, I started focusing more on studies and volunteering in a non-profit organization, AFS.

But on October 29, 2012, Ellips sent a message on Facebook inviting me to be part of Ellips Girls Circle. It sounds cool and fun so without any second thoughts, I accepted the invitation! 

At first, I had no idea what are we gonna do. I thought it's just a one day meeting/gathering of all students from Summer U Promo. I was informed during our first day-out that only 5 girls were chosen from all the students who attended Summer University classes. I was really surprised that I was one of the five girls! Last Summer, Ellips sponsored different one-day classes exclusively for girls. I found out about it because one of my dorm-mates, Czarina Fortuno, joined the Surfing class and informed me about the ongoing Facebook contest.

If I knew it sooner, I probably joined the surfing class too because I've never done it before and I think it's a cool sport. Anyways, it was a great experience learning Travel Photography from a professional photographer, Estan Cabigas. He taught us many techniques in taking better pictures. I was actually surprised with the results I got from taking photos in Ayala Triangle.

These are the 5 girls chosen to be part of Ellips Circle of Possibilities:

Abby in Scent Institute. Her variant is "Cutie"

Fiona in Scent Institute and Make-up class. Her variant is "Charm"

Me (Jasmin) in Travel Photography and my variant is "Allure"

Ronni in Surfing class. Her variant is "Preppy"

Star in Surfing class too. Her variant is "Trixee"

Our first weekend get-together was last November 17, 2011 at Posh Nails, Venice Piazza Mckinley. We had a pampering and fun-filled SPArty!! :)) We shared many things about ourselves such as our favorite movie, likes, hobbies, and so on. 

Honestly, I felt awkward at first because the other three girls (Star wasn't able to attend because she had plans for that day) are model of clothing lines or in their own school.  While me is very simple or ordinary. They wore fashionable clothes while I just had my shirt and jeans on. But as time goes by, I realized that they are nice and fun to talk with. The Ellips Staff (Ate Pot, Ate Isa, and Ate Lara) are also very kind.

It was just my second time going to Venice Piazza, Mckinley. It feels like it's in a different country. Specifically, a European country. It was a great place to have the first meeting of Ellips Girls. The ambiance was good and refreshing. Posh Nails is also an awesome nail salon. It's Pink and Girly furnitures makes us feel good . :)
