    Trixia Salonga

    Hi! I'm Trixia and welcome to my slice of life. I'm not your average blogger, I'm a hybrid of multi-dimensional shoujo, a rare breed of legal loli and a unique original producer of ideas and inspiration. My path goes on the other side of the road which is less traveled, where thrill and excitement rests. This blog holds my inner thoughts, experiences, opinions and out-of-the-ordinary theories which I keep as a journal of my life's highlights. Contact me at reshadollyprincess@gmail.com for collaboration






    When I first started ReshaDollyPrincess, it was a continuation of a blog from a former blogging website that had closed up, it became a blank slate to start expressing my thoughts and adventures for passion-driven individuals like me.

    I shared mostly anything under the sun, my favorite was keeping a good journal of my self-photography.

    My childhood dreams finally became true when I was able to finally make costumes of my own and cosplay my favorite anime characters. I was such a reserved person at that time that I could only take photographs in our own house.

    As years pass by, I meet with people from all around the world and they were interested to get promotions for their event or products with my name, the first time my blog went to .com was the first landmark of this blog to turn into a business.

    I never really thought it would be a business since I only started with my usual fun journal, but when opportunity strikes, I never missed the chance to grab it and because of that ReshaDollyPrincess wouldn't be the same as it was until today.

    For years, I would do a lot of collaborations with different brands and companies but never did I thought of advertising them on my own page for easier accessibility. I regret that big time, but now I'm happy that I was able to do it. I was able to find a good reference for a Collaboration page where all brands or partnerships can easily fill in their forms for my selected collaboration requests.

    I placed links on the navigation menu and also on a drop down at Collaboration tab. The links navigate thru my Collaborations page where you will be able to read my Collaboration selections and fill up a form to get all the details done.

    Today I'll be telling you the story of reshadaseamaiden. That name was my long-time email, since high school time around 2004. It was going to be the name of my website but I chose a different name of ReshaDollyPrincess. So I thought that my dreams could never come true, a message of invitation by Ms. Leomy surprised me, she asked if I wanted to attend a free mermaid course with Ms. Amarie. I agreed immediately when I received the message and was left completely stunned, I feel so excited that my dreams are coming for real one by one. It's all thanks to her.






    The location was set in Cavite City Sangley base which I have never been to. The schedule was to go for 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. We got lost along the way when we asked some people which bus to take to get to Cavite City, we were pointed out a wrong bus, after several tries we ended up getting into a cute old fashion baby bus, I got very excited to try it because it was my first time.

    Cute Baby Bus first time seeing in Cavite 
    How excited I am to take a selfie in the baby bus

     Seats were arranged in a bus fashion but driver's seat looked so much like jeepney.





    Ms. Amarie told us to wait at Mcdonalds Ronquillo. Where we met with Ms. Valerie, one of our co-mermaid bloggers. We got into the Sangley base easily thanks to Ms. Amarie.



    When we arrived, we started at 1:00 pm. She oriented about the coverage of the mermaid class.

    MERMAID CLASS 101



    One: How to Look like a mermaid
    Two: How to swim like a mermaid
    Three: How to pose like a mermaid

    How to look like a mermaid


    Ms. Amarie showed us her newest craft mermaid crown made out of shells and two crowns she shared for us.












    For my own look, I went pearl hunting via mom's closet and she handed me precious white pearls. and shell earrings.

    My hair was magically arranged by water. I'm not kidding. When we had the orientation and exercises earlier my hair dried up to curls and I'm also surprised as to how it looked beautiful, so my hairstylist would be water. Ms. Amarie pinned just the front side of my hair so my earrings would show. Thank you.




    She then laid out her mermaid tails. She gave the kid size tail because it's the one that fits me best. I chuckled because even my clothes are from the kid's section. It was literally the perfect fit yet I needed more adjustments because it always looses off my feet while on water.

    She had us done warm-up exercises and measured our breathing by using a timer. She also gave us a good hint how to get more air to stay breathless longer.


    Inhale short and exhale longer.

    Warm up stretching of muscles are a great way to start, but a little difficult for a computer chair potato like me, I felt a good stretch and better circulation when we're performing this, intensity would vary to each person to person.

    Mermaid tails vary, you can see those that they sell online made out of polyester fabric, nylon, and handmade silicon. You may ask where to purchase those to Ms. Amarie or Ms. Gennie as they have great ideas where to find a perfect tail for you.

    How to Swim like a mermaid


    Swimming like a mermaid is all different to a usual swim taught to me at my Alma matter FEU. In here, both feet feel like it's been tied up together and you'll cooperate with the water to propel and create fluid movements.

    It is important to wear socks for the flippers. It will protect your feet from scratch and help you propel better.


    Ms. Amarie partnered up with me and taught me the basics of mermaid swim.



    While Ms. Valerie was taught by Mermaid Gennie.


    And going underwater, she tossed the coin, let it sink and I had to pick it up but in fluid graceful movements.


    I had a hard time staying underwater because my cardio has been down for many years, plus my feet must kick together and not separately which is all brand new to my senses there are often times I had fear of drowning. It's a hidden fear I found out till later when we got to shallow waters of 8 feet deep, plus going down creates so much pressure in my lungs which I haven't developed since last competition.



    How to pose like mermaid


    Posing underwater is a fun way to create great memories of mermaiding experiences, but it's not very easy to do, you'll need to hold your breath much longer and make sure to get your best poses composed. 

    Ms. Amarie taught me basic poses including a fly kiss underwater and forming the heart shape with hands which I did with fingers!

    Hehehe

    Anyway, I enjoyed everything and after that, we took some videos and photos in our tails.

    We finally were able to go home through a short ride with Ms. Valerie's car up to Mcdonald's Ronquillo and we rode a van proceeded to MOA, thankfully the ride was fast and we got home easily.
    According to Ms. Amarie, classes normal span time is for 5 days 2 hours each day but she compresses them into the hours that we only have to get everything covered up.

    I lost my voice



    After the swim, I felt like the little mermaid in real life when I lost my voice due to tonsillitis and my muscle aches because I never do any regular exercise, but since I enjoyed every moment I had experienced, I recovered immediately to produce this blog. 


    Ms. Amarie's question after the session struck me:

    What was your take away from this course:

    The question was very simple but for me, I have felt to appreciate such beauty of this art is and even though it was just a dream before it is real to me now.

    Thank you to Ms. Leo and Ms. Amarie.




    There is so much more to this art than the graceful movements of a beautiful maiden in the sea and I hope you can experience it too.

    By the way, a great footage of my swim is shared in Ms. Amaries Merswim 101 page, you may want to check it out too.

    Lesson Learned

    the lesson I learned is to still practice the usual bubbling exercises underwater.  If you know the basics of swimming breathing exercises and don't push yourself too hard just enjoy the water and your tail. Mermaiding takes time and dedication.  I also learned that I am better without any goggles because it helps me express my emotions underwater. It's just my preference, this is dependent on you.
