Enchanting Countdown

Went to Enchanted Kingdom to celebrate c3's birthday and to catch the Annual Sky Wizardry Finals at night. Since Remay and Dren and I are so tamad to commute, we availed the shuttle which can be found at EDSA Car Park. It's a bit pricey for 200 feysus - 1 way, but who cares, all of us were tired because went here straight from our night jobs. Luckily, the staff informed us they have a promo. If we avail the 2 way shuttle trip plus the Day Pass ticket, they will only charged us 680 feysus! Oh my, very good deal. Hassle free pagdating sa EK kasi we dont need to line up sa super habang pila ng tickets.

Since the highlight of this visit is the fireworks, I thought of doing a photoblog countdown featuring the rides and attractions at EK. Come count with me!

Thy Will Be Done


Faith requires us to accept, to hope, and to believe.

Keep the FAITH.

I Heit You

While thinking of a topic for my '10 days to go' entry, I asked Chyng about the 10 things she hate about me. Inspired by julia stiles' movie (10 Things I Hate About You). Here are her answers. 'Yung iba sa akin na galing kasi alam kong kinakainisan niya 'yun.10 Things She Hate "daw" About Me

ten Pag-inom ng softdrinks 'pag hindi kme magkasama
Lagi niya sinasabi na umiinom pa rin ako. Drinking softdrinks is a crime for her. Kulang na lang sabihan kang "Alcoholic!" Medyo mahirap siya i-convince kasi lagi niya ko nahuhuli na nagisisnungaling. But seriously, for 2008, 500mL pa lang ang softdrinks intake ng katawan ko. If you don't want to believe me, magpa-softdrinks test pa tayo (parang DNA testing lang, hehe).

nayn Hearing the lines, "Nasasakal na ako"
Nung Satur-date namin, favorite kong sabihin 'yung linyang nasasakal na ako. Eto 'yung sample:
chyng: San tayo kakain?
enrico: Jabee, jabee! (with maharot dance moves)
chyng: Ang harot mo naman e. Kaya ako inuubo. Sa iba naman, nangangati na ako sa jollibee
enrico: You asked me, so i answered. Sige pili ka na lang kung san mo gusto.
chyng: Gusto mo dito? E dito? Show some interest or excitement naman
enrico: Pag makulit ako, ayaw mo. Pag tahimik naman ako, ayaw mo pa rin. I can't do this anymore, nasasakal na ako
chyng (sa isip lang niya): Hindi lang nakapag-jollibee nasasakal na.

Funny thing bukod sa jollibee craving at tantrums ko, nung nagsukat ako ng mood ring, purple, este dark blue pala ang naging color
chyng: meron ka bang nakikitang purple jan, babasahin na lang e;
enrico: grabe ka naman, nasasakal na talaga ako.
Na ang ibig sabihin, dark blue = very happy. Nasasakal pero very happy. Oh well, hindi talaga ako magaling magsinungaling. Pero magaling naman ang acting ko.
Btw, nakapag-jollibee pa rin kami that day. I got a tuna pie. Yey!
Note: Ang hirit na 'yun ay pawang LMLS (last movie line syndrome) lang. Hang-over sa isang movie lunch na gustong-gusto panoorin ng mga ka-team kong gels.

eyt Eating too much kahit busog na ako
Father's day, a week after Kuya's birthday and 2 days before my birthday, my dad decided that we have dinner sa seaside together with my tito, tita, cousin, kuya's girlfriend and Chyng. As usual, konti lang ang nakain ni Chyng. She's lucky dahil hindi niya katabi si Mama. Hobby kasi ni Mama na maglagay ng pagkain sa plato ng mga bisita. After ko kumain ng 3 servings of rice and assorted ulam, Chyng was looking at me. 'Yung parang sinasabi niyang andami ko nang nakain. So I said, "Tapos na ko. Inubos ko lang yung brocolli dahil walang may gusto at uubusin ko na lang 'yung onion rings." Sabi niya, "Dude, hindi 'yan onion rings. Calamares 'yan. Grabe, naubos mo 'yung isang bandehado."
Growing boy kasi. Intindihin niyo na lang ako. Eating is one of those simple pleasures that I enjoy.

seben Kamay na parang na-stroke
Mahilig ako manita pag pasaway na si Chyng. Kaya naman pag meron siya ginawa or sinabi na dapat nang sitahin, parang maii-stroke ang kamay ko habang holding hands kami. Sino ba naman gusto humawak sa matigas na kamay? Wala raw siyang maramdaman pag ganun. It's better naman that way kesa magsalita ako na ma0-obvious pa ng iba. Believe me, effective yun.

Holding stroke hands while showcasing fossil watch


Note: No offense meant to people who had stroke or people who have relatives na na-stroke. 'Yun lang kasi ang naisip kong madaling description sa pangungulit ko.

siks 10 million calls from work via the support phone
Chyng is not the selosa type. Lagi niyang sinasabing pinipili lang ang pagseselosan. So kahit halos babae ang nasa team ko ngayon, ang dating ka-dance dance ko sa Mega pag-lunch ay babae at ang pinaka-close ko sa office ay babae pa rin, hindi pa rin siya nagseselos (e pano, puro boys naman ang ka-team niya). Wag ka lang niya mahuhuling nagna-number seben (yung #7 ng entry na to). Naku, 10 minutes na away yan.
But if there's one thing na pinagseselosan niya nang todo, it's work. Lalo na pag Satur-date namin and nagkita kami hapon na kasi I had to work on a weekend. Tapos while having coffee, tatawagan pa rin ako. Ayaw niya 'yun. Kasi 'yun na nga lang 'yung time naming dalawa. Kaya nga nung na-hold-up ako sa bus at binigay ko si Cali (nokia phone ko), sabi niya, "bakit hindi na lang si support phone ang binigay mo?"

Just another satur-date outside the office.

payb Paglalambing or pang-iinis
I have this habit of pang-iinis just for the sake of having an argument. Pero minsan it's plain pangungulit lang talga.
She doesn't like it pag di na niya alam kung naglalambing ba ako o nang-iinis na talga. My answer, it's the same. Pag nang-iinis ako, nilalambing kita nun. Natutuwa kasi ako 'pag kunwari nag-aaway tayo. (don't worry, hindi na ako mapipikon pag inasa mo naman ako). Sabi mo nga, parang ito lang yung ginagawa sa atin ng mga mama natin. Naglalambing sila pero naiinis tayo minsan.

Parang ganitong paglalambing/pangungulit ng nanay

por Making beso with other girls
BESO ha, hindi BOSO! What can i do? It's my way of socializing with my female friends (hindi naman sa lahat). Okay, okay, hindi ko na lang ipapakita. Pero i just have one request, pag sikat na akong modelo o artista, you might see me na nakikipagbeso sa ibang babae, wag ka sana magtatampo. Part lang yun ng work. Naku, pano pa kaya pag nag-gums-to-gums kami ni anne curtis.


tri Making lasing on weeknights
Di neman ako nalalashing e. And i'm not conio when i'm drunk. Alam mo kung gaano mang-pressure sila mr. empire at antonio. Everything has a purpose. Kaya ako nagpakita sa kanila last Thursday kasi I know that I may not see them sa weekend (dahil may saturdate or sundate tayo). At hindi nga. Mr. empire, sorry na ha. Good luck later sa Arneyo game.

Being late
Guilty as charged ako dito. I'm very very sorry for the nth time na na-late ako sa date natin. Bumabawi na naman ako ngayon di ba. Hehe.
Worst late moment ko 'yung nagpunta siya sa office tapos she waited for more than an hour. Tapos hindi niya ako maaway kasi sandali lang kami makakapag-date. Kumbaga, sandali na nga lang kayo magkikita, mag-aaway pa kayo. At alam din naman niya na kung wala na akong work, gustong-gusto ko na rin magkita kami. Buti na lang kakampi ko si time and reason. Joke! Sorry po nang marami sa mga instances na 'yun.


wan Hearing the word 'Singapore'
We've been planning, okay, I've been considering of working abroad. To save money, buy a house and eventually get married. Hehe. And because hindi okay si Chyng sa setup na magkakalayo kami nang matagal, she doesn't like the the idea of me working abroad. Na-stress daw siya sa topic na 'yun. Hmmm, matagal na naman akong hindi nangungulit di ba? But we'll have to talk about it in the near future. Very soon... :9

Check niyo rin entry ni Chyng: 10 things he hate daw about me

copied from Enrico's blog
written sometime July 2008

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Anytime soon (or very soon), he will be deleting his blog. And I dont know how I can have a piece of remembrance of his entries which are my favorites. So I thought of reposting the entry to my blog.

I chose this HATE entry because this is a unique blog idea; listing the things you hate but still continue to love despite those imperfections. He wrote this after our 1st month. Now we're together for 16 months. Not much years compared to others, but I've always been happy to have this relationship we're in.

Reward in Refund

After exactly a year, Enrico has finally received the refund by Cebu Pacific. The tickets were for our friends who unfortnately didn't manage to come due to Cebu Pacific's cancellations and rescheduling. Kaya our HK vacation became only 4 days instead of 5.

Anyway, we agreed we could dine somewhere fancy as a reward. I requested forced him na sa Burgoo nalang instead of his pick - TGIFriday's.

Burgoo it is!

I love ribs and shrimps too so their Ribs and Shirmps platter is perfect. Enrico wanted Linguini with Clams pasta. Luckily, the waitress informed us about the Citicard promo so got this meal for free!


Shrimps and Ribs platter with sidings
Looks not so appealing at all. Taste - not as flavorful and tender as before. Dry ang ribs at shirmps.

Linguini with Clams
Not a fan, but since Enrico finished this, maybe it's good. haha

We knew cheesecakes here taste ordinary so I chose Fudge Brownie A la Mode for dessert.

Fudge Brownie A la Mode

Finally, something we really enjoyed eating. Mas generous pa nga ang walnuts and fudge than the last time. Yummy!

I used to be a fan of Burgoo pero na-erase na yan that day.
Yes, nakakabusog. But worth your money- I dont think so. Oh I forgot, free pala yung pasta meal kaya sulit na din. Dapat nag-TGIFridays nalang kami, kung naging submissive lang sana ako. *winks*

The Real Recipe

Still not over the Ondoy experience. Here's my last meal bago ako ma-stuck ng 20 hours sa bus. Now you know kung bakit di ako nagutom.

For sure you have noticed The Recipes restaurant in malls but since the place doesn't look appealing, never had a chance that I saw it jam packed. Oh well, never judge a book by it's cover. After you tried eating here, you'll wonder "Bakit walang tao lagi dito kahit sobrang sarap ng food?"

Enrico introduced me to this place, and since then I've been bringing my friends here if we want some real/tasty/affordable food.


My Nth round of the Recipe experience.

General's Chicken
Superb! Everybody's favorite at Recipe's. Bit spicy too, Yummy!

Cripsy Tilapia
I dont eat Tilapia, pero exemption to! Very crispy yet soft yung meat.

Gising Gising
Again, im not a fan of gata. Pero cant help ordering this dish again and again.

Kain tayo!

BTW, an officemate offered his built in improvised fisheye lens for my point and shoot camera. Cool! Here are my first shots using the improvised lens.

Pwede na di ba, this built in improvised fisheye lens for my point and shoot just costs 200 feysus. Not bad!
