FOOD OHHH LA-LAH....

FRIDAY



Had lunch with our client yeserday at the Philippine Plaza Hotel (too bad I wasn't able to bring my digicam in order to take LOTS of pictures!) - Spiral buffet was fantastic...I've been hearing great reviews about the place and finally I was able to judge it...




My rating:
Food- 5/5 (talk about variety and different cuisines!)
Ambiance - 4.5/5 (the chair was little low for me, and I prefer the couch type but since we were 5 people the couch isn't an option!)
Service - 5/5 (it was really fast! Believe me...)
Price - 4/5 (It is expensive, but if you love eating? It is worth the amount...and for a hotel buffet? The price is just RIGHT!)





* here are some images taken in my cellphone, so images aren't that clear


SATURDAY (today)


Just got home from dinner...my sister just GRADUATED!! Good for her, bad for our society... ) (just kidding!)

Am soooo full....

Busy. Busy.

These past few days has been a roller coaster....(kinda like my love-life...) but all's well that ends well.




I'm going to pester you guys by BEGGING you to please visit my online store...http://fashaholic.multiply.com <-- the stuffs are really amazing...tres chic!




Catching up on my "series-life", I've finished watching the whole Monk & Prince Turn Into Frog series...really sad that it has finally ended...now I have to look for a new series to brighten up my boring life. I want to try Prison Break (since I have a crush on the actor... )




Ohboy! I'll be having a bazaar soon...catch you guys there!

Change of layout.

I was bored so I changed the layout...

To buy or not to buy?

I'm not a cellphone fad-follower. I usually stick to what I have as long as it is okay for calling and texting, and taking photos.




But recently I read this article on Metro Mag - October 2006-ish and fell in-love with the Nokia 7390 (it is part of the L' Amour collection), this time it comes readily available in the color of powder pink. The phone features a 3 megapixel camera with auto focus and integrated flash, 3G fashion phone (WOW!); broadband, audio/video streaming, Sudoku game, it's a flip (that is a plus), Mp4 player, radio, built in speakers with 3D sound...and more! here is what it looks like:

The Guardian

"So that others may live"

...that's the motto in the movie....




I've seen The Guardian and truly? It is one of the most interesting movie I have ever seen. Kevin Costner still portrayed an amazing role, and Ashton Kutcher (with his punk'd-ness still present) showed the true-actor in him. Who would have thought this guy have an amazing talent hidden in those goofy eyes?!? The storyline was smooth and you'll really see how hard the training and the lessons in life in this movie, as well as the things we needed to value. I would definitely love to watch it again! I highly recommend this to people! A must see!




I'm addicted to playing arcade games (well...they call it like that!) especially: Diner Dash 2, Delicious Deluxe, etc...darn!!

It is time to say...

Fri (Oct 20)





* james, rem (she was the one who left), me, noel, jackie, dino



Goodbye seems to be the hardest word, especially when the person is someone close to you or someone to whom you shared something special...I had to say goodbye to one of my supervisors as she traversed a different road...But as I said in my good-bye gift - "No goodbyes, just see you laters"


My dearest dahr-ling is also moving on...I wish him all the luck and best since he really DESERVES it...I guess I won't be seeing him everyday anymore...


Sat (Oct 21)




 



* the baby wouldn't want to be hold by me... wah....

Went to a children's birthday party (yey!) the baby is soooooooo cute! I could hugged her, but she won't accept me! grr..



I took lots of pictures which my friends can view in my multiply..even got a video of the magician..haha...




Sun (Oct 22)


Went shopping...whew! I'm toast! Love it...



Need to buy this!!

First Day Alone

As soon as I arrived at the office, officemates greeted me with – “So how’s the first day being alone?”, “Will you stay or move forward?”… “So how are you surviving?” – These questions came from two of my officemates… (I don’t think the day will end without another person asking me that stuff too)




No, we didn’t break up…and yes, we are still ‘US’ and together. But not on the same floor, not in the same building…not anywhere that near that we can walk to and fro each other. Gawd! It has only been a day and yet I feel like something is really different.




No more breakfast with him, constant IP’s in the office, sweet walks home or ride in the MRT, no more…guess I’m left alone again. Back to when I was all alone and without a howe hen nan guo. . Then again, it is also better in the sense that we will surely miss each other (I know we both misses each other…), we won’t be seeing each other 24/7, so less fight (I think). My friend even told me - para hindi ka agad magsawa.




Oh...I saw this book; well actually, Niko saw the book it is entitled – “All About Us” – the cover is red (bloody red, hard cover, simple) the book helps you discover more about each other, helps you maybe deepen the relationship, I’ll surely add this to my WISHLIST basket along with the Philosophy h202 cream!




Darn! Instead of increasing money, I am increasing my ‘new’ shopping list!

Ramadhan Day

Spend the day with my honey....I miss him so much...seems like we will be seeing each other less and less these days...and he might be assigned in La Union (Bagiuo, which is a 6 hours drive to and fro Metro Manila..a.k.a ME)



So basically, that is another challenge in our relationship...woah! this relationship has been through so many obstacles already...I can't believe I made this far...I believe we can do it..after all I love him so much.. love will keep us alive, right?
