2018.09.14 – JLPT N3, Utada Hikaru Lottery

JLPT N3 I hate myself! I totally forgot that yesterday was the deadline for the JLPT N3 exam application (for this December). To be honest, I haven’t really prepared for it, too. I told myself when I skipped it last July that I’ll resume my studies – and have even quit social media for it […]

2018.09.13 – Just another day

This week flew by so fast. Doing daily blogs but not having anything worth talking about is difficult. Today was just another day spent at work. I guess the highlight would be having my favorite coffee after lunch – Arabica’s Iced Latte (switched to Soy) is my favorite cup of coffee. It’s expensive and comes […]

2018.09.12 – Work from home

Wow, it has been a long time since my last work from home. This was mainly because of transitions and sort of adjusting to the new role. Since I only had one meeting today, I decided to take advantage and work from home. In the living room, I turned on my Christmas lights, put on […]

2018.09.11 – Pho Hoa/My Thai Dinner

This will be short because I am sleepy already. It was a long day at the office – partly because I had a spontaneous catch-up dinner with Debbie and Jolo. We dined at the new branch of Pho Hoa/My Thai, located at the ground floor of our office building! As can be deduced from the […]

2018.09.09 – Circuit Makati

My brother woke me up super early today – like 5:30 in the morning – for breakfast! I got up and prepared some coffee and just chilled like one would on an early Sunday morning. After breakfast, I basically just stayed in my room and spent time on the blog, watched videos on YouTube, but […]

2018.09.08 – Big Mama & Crepe Amelie

My brother woke me up at 8 in the morning to have some breakfast. Both of us have a hangover from the night before, but he had it worse than me and prepared breakfast, so I had to oblige. I got up, ate, and went back to sleep after because I was still so sleepy. […]

2018.09.07 – Good Earth Roasts (TCO Mini Reunion)

Friday night turned out to be a pleasant surprise with an unexpected mini-reunion of old TCO friends in one of my favorite bars in Manila. But first, Rico’s! Andrew invited Ron and myself to Diageo’s open bar, but he had to accompany Faye for a check-up, so we ended up taking a raincheck on the […]

2018.09.06 – Blog changes / Debbie’s 10th

So, an email arrived that made me think twice about this whole blogging thing on here. I have been “secretly” blogging over at LiveJournal every day for a month now because that was where I started a long, long time ago. Last night, I got an email from my hosting service billing me for the […]

2018.09.05 – ドライブ (Drive)

Wednesday was full of meetings. Like jampacked from morning until 5:30pm. I drove my car today to save money because seriously, Grab has been hard to book recently, unless you get the 6-seater or the premium one, which costs a lot! Yesterday, I spent almost 500 on Grab alone! I need to start saving up […]

2018.09.04 – Lechon, again and again!

I was initially planning on working from home this Tuesday but I’ve been enjoying working in the office since I moved roles, so I didn’t want to break the momentum and went to the office instead. I don’t regret it because I got to attend a lot of meetings and also had fun with friends. […]
