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 […]

2018.09.10 – The Great Passage

Today I finished a book called “The Great Passage” by Shion Miura. I got this book from an Amazon sale a couple of months ago (together with 8 other books by International Authors). The story revolves around the creation of a Japanese dictionary called The Great Passage (because the setting is in Japan), the challenges […]

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 […]

Run Rabit Run – Makati’s New Watering Hole

Run Rabbit Run looks like a normal house on the outside, but this sign by the red door says that there’s something magical to be found inside. I have been itching to try this out, but I didn’t want to do it alone. This time, Kristi’s visit was the perfect opportunity to finally discover what’s […]

Photo Gallery: Lugsangan Peak (July 2018)

Last July, my friends and I had a surprise mountain trek at Lugsangan Peak in Mantalongon, Dalaguete, Cebu. Our original plan was to go to Osmeña Peak, which is Cebu’s highest elevation. But, my sister told us about another peak she claimed to be better than Osmeña Peak – Lugsangan (or previously known as Casino) […]

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 […]
