The Roadtrip
I woke up at exactly 7:28 this morning to prepare myself coz I need to be in Shangri-la at exactly 10AM. My friends and I will go to Tagaytay just to hang out and unwind. We left Manila at around 10:15AM. Headin' south via Sta. Rosa exit. We dropped something in Paseo Laguna (Apple delivered something for her project in their barracks). Then headed directly to Tagaytay. We went directly to Leslies to take our lunch since it's already quarter to 1 when we arrived there. We ordered the sumptous bulalo, buttered crab and sizzling gambas. We had fruit salad and leche flan for desserts. We stayed for a bit in the resto after eating to take a rest and enjoy the scenery. After awhile, we decided to go back to manila so we can rest early. While on our way home, it just came up and has been decided that we'll go to Starcity to play lazer blazer. Since we're already out, why not we should take all the time we have and make the most of it? So we did play 1 game of lazer blazer and then roam around the place. While enjoying by just looking at the rides, I came across this stall of hats. I saw two beautifully designed fedora hats. I never hesitated in buying them... it was the first time I bought this kind of hat eventhough I'm not really a hat person.
We really had a blast today. It's one of the most enjoyable roadtrips I had. I just hope that more trips to come with the same group of people.

Synchronizer Connected
I am so happy today coz my application for the broadband which I waited for a very long time has been approved and was confirmed that the installation was scheduled for today. From the office I went home directly and waited for the Manong Installers. At first I was a bit skeptical if they'll come or not coz the customer service rep who called us the other day told us that it was scheduled in the morning.
The 2 Manong Installers came at almost 4PM already but the heck I care! What's important now is they're here to set everything up. It was almost dark when they're done. Now that I have my own internet connection... I hereby proclaim that The Synchronizer will be here, will get connected to the world any second, any minute and any hour of the day.
You've been synchronized!

My Photo Blog About Foods
This blog is just a collection of pictures of all kinds of food I ate and would like to eat.
The cassava cake was given to us by our friend, Gerald. Ate Lina and I enjoyed it very much! We shared some of it with our friends in the office. Thanks to Kuya George for taking this picture.
Menudo - diced pork with carrots, potatoes, sayote, baguio beans and raisins.
We had these during a conference meeting with the clients and executives in the office. Roast Chicken, tuna belly, roast beef, pineapple and grapes for dessert.
It's one of those days that I don't have anything to eat. I would prefer Maling or Luncheon meat other than any other canned goods.
These are the foods we had on our 2009 Christmas party in Antipolo. T'was so much fun!!!
The Hungarian Sausage from Earle's Delicatessen... YUMMY!!!
Valenciana - it's like Paella minus the seafoods. =)
I know it's kinda funny looking... but c'mon! Clear up your dirty mind. LOL
The chocolate fondue
Monte Cristo Bites, Tuna Carbonara, Shanghai Rolls and Crispy Fried Kangkong
The Monte Cristo Bites
These foods were prepared by Meg and Tax for the baby shower party.

My Fave Song Cover
I've been browsing YouTube from time to time and I chanced upon this one music video, which is one of the sensations and most viewed videos in the site right now, of Just A Dream cover created by Joseph Vincent and Jason Chen. I am so amazed with the voices of these guys! I downloaded their music cover online and I'll try the video next time. The song, Just A Dream was originally sang by Nelly. =)
Here's the version of Joseph and Jason;
Just A Dream
I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Will she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
Let me tell you about a girl who changed my world
I don't know just how she's doin that
She on my mind, she taking my time
I'm losing my way but now she's bringing me back
She's my ipod I got her on replay
I love the way she lies and she's making me wanna say
the DJ got us fallin in love
We're like dynamite and I just can't get enough
What goes up must come down
Now baby you're not around
Im laying all alone in the middle of the night
I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Will she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
Let me tell you about a girl who changed my life
She's a triple threat and she's just my type
Voice of a goddess can dance to this flow
She be turnin' heads everywhere she goes
She's my ipod I got her on replay
I love the way she lies and she's making me wanna say
the DJ got us fallin in love
We're like dynamite and I just can't get enough
What goes up must come down
Now baby you're not around
Im laying all alone in the middle of the night
I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.

Will she come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.
