Some back logs and Yesterday’s Weekend~

 

  Weekend is almost ending and back to work again, another busy week ahead, but thankfully it’s payday week! WOOT! I have quite a lot of back logs, and frankly find it hard to make reviews again. I suppose my blog will now be more of a journal of some sort.

   A few Sundays ago (of last month) before the event, I was cramming in search of a Greecian-like blouse, which was the theme. The whole morning was spent hunting at places like, Glorietta, SM Makati and Landmark. I did find some pieces but I didn’t want to exceed my 1,000 peso budget (I’m cheap that way). I was so tired that I needed to cool down and this is what I had…..

                              Never fails to give me that mmmmmmm moment…

      For lunch I was around Landmark area already and decided to try out TOSH, since E, recommended that we try their pizza. It was actually my second time, my first was with my M, and we didn’t like what we ordered. But during my own food adventure, it was well worth the second time.

    I tried their Philly cheese steak pizza and had to wait for 15mins, and it was indeed worth the wait. Good thing they have by the slice, for a slice I think it cost me around P90.00

    For the main dish I had their pasta puttanesca. It was good, but I wish it had more olives and tomatoes, but aside from that, I’ll definitely order this again. It ranges around the same price of the pizza.

  Right after lunch, I met with M and his best friend Jon at SM Bicutan to play LOL (League of Legends).

   For the longest time, I’ve been craving for blueberry cheesecake, I tried Sugarhouse and it was yet another good blueberry cheesecake, to better describe it? Food-gasmic! hehe

Yesterday’s Weekend…

Yesterday, M and our good friend Stacy, attended the Trese 4 Book Launch at Robinson’s Galleria, Best Seller. I wasn’t able to buy a copy that day, so instead I had my cover case signed by the artist, Kajo Baldisimo~

Dropped by to say hello


Hello everyone! I’m back! Well, technically back that is. I’ve been busy with work lately that it demands most of my time, that I barely have enough energy to blog nor even check my facebook or play SIMS Social.
Anyway, here’s a series of events from last month~
My 27th birthday celebrated with M and 2 girlfriends…
A customized hello kitty cake from Captain’s Mix and Magic and Lunch at Aveneto SM Megamall and ended the night at Starbuck’s for some coffee

   Secondly, after weeks of being busy and implementing our event at work, it was a success.  This is me and my officemate Judy at the party…

  Among other things, I want to share how our 6th Anniversary went yesterday. M and I decided to celebrate our anniversary since October 3 is a weekday. We went road tripping till late in the afternoon, then went to MOA. First we went to a gaming place (forgot the name) and played Mortal Kombat. The Recreation place is quite nice, there’s bowling, billiards and PS3. You can also order food while you play, I bought us some nachos to munch on and some drinks

296030_2055041131339_1103880186_31825522_240014601_n
   The weather that day was bad, the winds were so strong. At the activity center was a pet day event, I dragged M so I could check but they were almost packing up already. Here’s the only thing that I was able to buy.

   For dinner, there were so many choices, that we ended up eating at Sizzling pepper steak, which was just okay for me.

    For dessert, we tried Sebastian’s…
    I had the Frozen Yakult which was pure love, P100 per scoop and M had his usual chocolatey fix

NBI Clearance

 

   Applying for requirements such as SSS, TIN is easy, NBI clearance is the hardest specially when you have to start from scratch all over again and especially when the security guard at Robinson’s Galleria tells you to go back tomorrow because you didn’t make the cut off. And when you get back the next day early in the morning around 4am the sign says Holiday in QC, no NBI clearance for today. I will not say that the guard is incompetent, because probably he was not informed. But they should have put a sign post yesterday that they are closed due to the holiday right?

    2011-08-19 03.53.39

     Along Makati Avenue around 3:30 am, I was hoping I could take the bus but there was no jeep nor bus in sight.

2011-08-18 12.42.03

    Taken yesterday, what renewal are you talking about? The one at Parksquare and Megamall is already closed. When I got to Galleria, I noticed other people was also bummed out about the announcement, good thing we (all 8 of us) decided to take a taxi going to the main NBI branch at UN Avenue. First time I rode a taxi with strangers with the same purpose. LOL!

     What I liked about the main branch is that there’s a separate line for men and women, make sure you arrive really early or else you won’t make the cut off.

2011-08-19 05.00.27

  The first 2 steps were a bit “fast” (data check and payment P115). Then the longest wait was for step 3 encoding, but once your inside the encoding room, it only takes less than 10minutes to finish encoding, to finger print (biometrics), picture taking and printing. Good thing they no longer use the mano-mano finger print with ink. While waiting for step 3, we stayed at the gym and I was surprised to see a projector, to keep us entertained. The movie was don’t mess with a zohan.

    The first time I got my clearance, I had a HIT and had to go back. I was actually worried if I’ll get a hit again, and thank you lord, I didn’t. For TIN number, the first time I got it is in the branch near my previous work at Pasig. For the SSS number, you have to look for the branch where you live. I got mine along J.P Rizal. I was able to accomplish a lot today, I start work on Monday next week as Marketing Assistant, In God’s grace, thank you~

     I hope this somehow helped Smile

 

     Till then!

A new found love and other tiny things

 

   I love Chowking’s Nai cha, let me rephrase that, I AM ADDICTED to Chowking’s Nai chai, LOL! I was at Shopwise, Makati earlier and looky what I found!

DSCN4308

    C2 MILK TEA! and I just bought one bottle! Sucks! What sucks more is that they don’t have it in a bigger bottle, bitin! It doesn’t compare to the nai cha, but this deems worthy in my list. It tastes simple, literally tastes like milk and tea, but my taste buds approve of it. Whatever tea they used was really good. If you know the chocolate milk tea being sold at 711, that one I didn’t like at all. It smells like the Montagne chocolate mask.

     Among other tiny things are bought are these

      I’m curious how the espresso coffee and wow meatballs would taste like, will try them tomorrow.

      The C2 Milk tea is definitely my new found love~

 

      For your viewing pleasure, someone wants me out of the bed

       Till then!

Food talk: Desserts–Mcdonald’s Big Blast

 

   When my sister mentioned that Mcdonald’s came up with “new” sundaes, the foodie in me wanted to try it. I love their caramel sundae! M and I had dinner last night near our place, originally we wanted to eat at Mang Inasal but parking was a pain, mcdo was the “best” option at that time. Burger and fries are not my kind of dinner. Anyway, for your viewing pleasure…

2011-08-18 18.19.42

     Let’s face it, there is nothing really new about it since there are no new exciting flavors to try, they just made everything BIGGER and more sinful! But sometimes, being sinful once in a while is good too. As far as I can remember, all of them sells for P40 each. M tried the double hot fudge, I tried the DUO (caramel and hot fudge).

                               Caramel and hot fudge duo~

DSCN4301

    And M’s double hot fudge

     There was one thing that we both noticed though, the consistency of the ice cream changed. It wasn’t as milky as before, it appears that it has more ice than milk. I’m not sure if it’s the same with other branches, give me a shout out if you experience the same. Never the less, it did not fail my sweet tooth!

 

           Have you tried this? I would like to know :)

 

 

     Till then!
