I love listening to this song. *Sigh*

Some poeple I know has something with love. Either they are extremely paranoid or just plain stupid. One of them (a friend for a few years) only calls me up (regardless of what time of the day it is) to share her frustrations about love and her constant analysis of a potential bf. Most of the time I have to do the analyzing after gathering her feedback (how he acts around her, how her classmates treat her, how she feels about the guy, and even mannerisms) and give her some options or possibilities that may happen. I am not sure if my friend is traumatized (thanks to her first and only ex-bf) into the idea of having a relationship and letting things develop each day. Actually, her studies has been affected with this kind of set-up and I am also losing sleep because of constant need of a friendly advice. Things (and people) have their limit and sometimes I am forced to use harsh statements in order to push the idea (she keeps on bugging me for my pov) into her thick skull. I care for her as a dear friend but sometimes she’s becoming a pain and a hassle.

I took this picture around 5-6am (Good Friday). Nice timing for me to get that kind of shot.

Another shot taken another angle.  I tried getting more of the orange light this time.

This time i’m using  the panoramic shot mode  of  my w810.  I used two frames instead of three.

The last panoramic shot for the meantime. Enjoy!

Here’s another Puerto Galera  video that I took months ago. I really love the place and I am still wishing that I can go back there this year. Hopefully, the room rates would go back to where it should be and the beach should be clean. 

This was taken on a lazy weekend at Galera (i know guys that i am so addicted to Galera-LOL). My only complaint was that it wasn’t a good time to swim that day because of the waves and the undertow. I’d like to quote the old saying – “It’s better to be safe than sorry “. That became our motto during that time. But we were still able to enjoy the place and get our much needed dose of fresh air. Better yet, the place was not that expensive compared to current rate at this time of the year (it’s peak season already).

Me and my girlfriend decided to visit Trinoma for our regular weekend trip to the mall. I was also in the mood to buy a new tv set because my old set was not working. I’ve been missing on my weekly dose of Future Weapons and NBA TV. Unfortunately, we were not able to see a good buy so off we went to look a nice place to have dinner.

We were thinking if we try out this new resto who has japanese style steaks in their menu but the waiting line made us think twice. So back to our old Aveneto and the same old waiting line and lucky for us that we only waited 2-5 minutes (we were scanning the menu that time). We decided to try nut pesto with chicken strips and pepperoni pizza. The place was unusuaaly noise that time and the couple to my left were trying to outdo the noise from the whole restaurant. I was able to know what were their summer itinerary and the guy was having trouble looking for a cure for his cough & colds. The family to my right has 4 rascal kids who seem to forget that they are inside the restaurant and should try to behave as much as they can (Hello! This is not the play area of mcdonald’s!) Their dad seems ineffective about controlling the kids as he and his wife were busy talking about some important stuff while their kinds were making hell inside the resto.

The food was ok and we got our order in a timely manner. Big serving as always and we did not regret ordering nut pesto with chicken strips. Pizza was alright although I wished it had more cheese. Resto music was good and they were playing 80’s – 90’s music.

Next blog entry: Assasination of Jesse James (not a very good date movie…)

Let me share some pics from our recent weekend trip. Three days and two nights of fun. Started with our booking being cancelled because of “peak season” and “lots of visitors” excuses from the owner of our favorite place. Good thing I still have a few friends there who helped me find a much better place to stay. Aside form that I came to Galera with not much sleep and I think I only did a 10-minute power nap back at the office.

The weather was crazy! Day one was packed with lots dark clouds and some rain showers. Day two had darker rain clouds floating around and mild-strong winds the whole day. Third day was blessed because the clouds cleared way for the sun for a few hours and then back to cloudy mode again.

Trip back to Batangas Pier was crazy as well. The ferry ride was punctuated by big waves at the middle of the sea. Head count of people throwing was about 5. All “exotics” tagging along with their foreigner boyfriends.

I’ll be posting another blog entry about rowdy and noisy Indians or middle-east type looking people. If I had my way – I’d kick them out of them ferry boat for being annoying.

My and my partner decided to spend our weekend in a different way. No late night movie, avoid coffee, and having dinner at the mall (*sigh* i miss eating at aveneto). Anyways, we went to 168 right after attending morning mass and found the place quite dizzying.People were streaming left and right (add the afternoon heat as well) will make anyone give up. We were able to get some good buys (boxers and slippers) although we we not that happy with what we’ve bought because the boxers is not that good compared to what we were getting from Greenhills.

After 168, we went to China Town to do some jewelry hunting and the usual food trip. We got for an hour and good thing I was able to get someone to lead us to Ongpin. I bought some food items from Eng Bee Tin and we ate at the noodle house beside it (I thought the owner was the same). The food was good and I think there was no msg added because i did not have my itching episode again.

Next time, we’ll go to “Mr. Ube” and that is the noodle shop that being owned and operated by the owner of Eng Bee Tin.

Friday night – Team lunch and the client treated to a Kenny Roger’s lunch (yum! yum!)

Saturday – After a killer 11 hour shift. Me and my friend tried World Chicken at Trinoma. Pasta was good and the grilled chicken was ok. Pizza tastes good and i think they added kesong puti instead of the usual cheddar or parmesan.

Sunday – Still thinking of where to eat at. Still thinking about Aveneto and it’s famous pasta and pizza

 It all started when I got curious about this place after hearing stories from my officemates about this place. I only heard about this place from my history/geography class back in high school. Fortunately, I was looking for another alternative destination to my usual weekend destinations.

The place is located north of Manila and approximately 3-5 hours via bus. Hopefully, I will survive this trip because I am not used to traveling for more than four hours.

Currently, my s.o and my former officemates agreed to go along. Planning can be quite a headache because we have no idea how much we should aside for a 3d2n trip. I’m also having a hard time getting confirmation from my officemates (good thing I have Galera as plan B). This would be my post birthday gift to myself/post monthsarry gift & post valentines gift to my s.o. Whew! 3 birds with one stone. Hehehe! ^_^
