December 2007
A month of shopping, eating, celebrating and bonding with friends and family …that’s what Christmas is all about….being with the ones you love!
…taken outside the sari-sari store beside our house…my mom, evita and my sister…while waiting for ditse to pick us up
One of my favorite shopping place in town is Market market at Forth Bonifacio. The mix of goodies here are quite good, from the cheapest (sometimes even divisoria like) to kinda expensive...to expensive. If we’re too lazy to go to divisoria, we would end up going to Market Market. They also sell some unique goods, that you wont find in the usual tiangge....like plants…fruits…and ofcourse the normal goods like clothes, shoes, jewelries and gift items.
We took a stroll at Serendra and then had coffee at Starbucks inside “fully booked”. As usual it took us forever to get a seat. At this point ive completed my starbucks sticker set so they gave me my new planner. Which reminds me….where is that planner now? Hmmm..
Trinoma! Another favorite place of mine 1. because they have sbarro 2. they have Fridays 3. what else….because of Landmark! And it so near our place…just 10 minutes by cab.
Sadly Friday's took out the chicken barbeque from the menu...how come? Its so good tender chicken thoroughtly marinated in bbq sauce roasted and served with garlic vinegar dip..and cucumber sallad (or was it atsara). And when you take a bite..it melts in your mouth...yummy! ..unfortunately is not available anymore :( otoke otoke!!!
… at the deck…
TEC Friends Christmas party. In the previous years, we usually do overnight christmas parties, only this year, its hard to get everybody at one place at one time, so we’ve decided well just do a simple dinner, so that those who wanted to leave eaerly can leave after dinner…...ironically the dinner lasted until morning..(not sure whether its 1 am or 2am).
We started adventurously around 7 at Bollywood, Greenbelt, to try some Indian Food, then we went upstairs to Figaro to for coffee, then we went to mcdonalds near AIM for some spaghetti and chicken????
As usual we were talking non-stop the entire time…one time, it came to a point when the waiter at Figaro came at our table to us to ask us to lower our voices down a little. It was a bit embarrassing.... but were not the type that would get embarassed and wont get even…so on our way out I complained that their blenders are are too noisy :P Ha ha!
Star city for the kids…and adults…. There were too many people in star city that day…we went inside together but we lost the kids along the way (they were probably busy queuing for the rides..unlike me whos scared of anything that moves..)…so its just me and my sister who roamed the grounds took pictures of each other..After awhile we saw mom and dad eating in one of the stalls...then the kids...lol!
…..as you can see, some of the pictures were a bit blurred…December is the time when my cam started deteriorating from bad to worse..…ironic…just when I needed it most… I tried to have it fixed in hidalgo st, quiapo…it was ok for awhile but after a few weeks it just stopped….the LCD just went black….i could’ve returned it to quiapo again, but I just don’t have the time.
….so no chrismas pictures this year…for a change…lol!
