Still Here

Hey guys, I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know that I’m still alive. I haven’t posted for a couple of months now and I don’t have a valid excuse other than I’ve just been lazy – but I’ll try to make the most out of the holiday break to catch […]

2018.10.05 – The Thrill of It All World Tour 2018 Manila

I finally got to see Sam Smith live at the Manila leg of “The Thrill of It All World Tour” at the SM Mall of Asia Arena! I remember regretting not buying tickets for his first concert here three years back. His album “In the Lonely Hour” was our soundtrack when playing mahjong back in […]

2018.09.25 – 今 – Manila-bound

Today was my last day in Cebu. My Manila-bound flight was at 10PM, but I had to meet up with Darl’s and Daisy for dinner so I left home early. I ended work at around 4:30PM and started packing my things. We were going to eat at a Korean restaurant near the airport called Da […]

2018.09.24 – コーヒー – WFH / Starbucks

Monday is WFH day. I woke up early after having slept almost the entire day yesterday. I did all of my morning meetings at home, and planned to work from a coffee shop after lunch because the heat was unbearable. My new favorite coffee shop is Starbucks because they serve Breve Latte (Keto-friendly) and I […]

2018.09.23 – 暇 – Restful Sunday

I did not do anything the entire Sunday, other than just rest. I originally planned to go to Dalaguete but I changed my mind when my younger sister told me she isn’t going. Since I was still so tired from all of the activities and night outs the past few days, I decided to just […]

So, Saturday was the day we hang-out (without the babies), just like we used to back in college! It was a college mini-reunion, from dinner to karaoke/drinks, to coffee after. Ramen at Ikkousha But first, I went out with my sister and Joyce for lunch. They told me they wanted to try Cebu’s best ramen, […]

jollibee birthday party

2018.09.21 – 金曜日 – Jollibee Birthday Party (Adia’s 4th)

The main reason for my coming home to Cebu this month is to attend Adia’s Jollibee birthday party! Meeting Chowa and Al again is just a close second! Haha. No favoritisms but Adia is literally my favorite godchild because how can you resist this cute baby?! The party was at 7PM, but considering Cebu’s traffic, […]

2018.09.20 – 木曜日 – Manggahan / Recharge

This is actually a continuation of the previous post but since this technically happened on a Thursday already, I decided to separate it! Manggahan Our second (and last stop) for the night/early morning was Manggahan in Lahug. They were actually already closing when we got there, but they allowed us to order and stay as […]

2018.09.18 – 火曜日 – Karaoke / HBD Martin!

Finally, a great Karaoke session thanks to our birthday boy, Martin! It’s always a blast with these people – especially with our favorite drink, Jager (which is not Keto-friendly by the way). I love finding excuses to drink and karaoke – which I used to do a lot, but not that much anymore since I […]
