Windfall
Rob is a friend of mine who is into poker. Actually, all the men in their family are into it. His father and older and younger brothers. When you go to their house, you will find two poker tables that dabble as side tables. On it are ordinary things like books, an ash tray, his [...]
100th post!
I almost missed my 100th post mark! Yay to my 100th post! Now I don’t know what to write. I feel pressured to write something brilliant but my mind is deliberately being obtuse I was holding a steaming mug of hot coffee when I thought of this blog. I always meet up with friends at [...]
Country Style Coffee, Ham & Swiss and Bagel
One of the cheaper coffee-to-go here in Manila is the one from Country Style. When I saw a kiosk last week, I realized how I missed those early morning coffees at the mezzanine of the building I was working at. There were days when I go there alone to have coffee. Most of the time, [...]
Stroll and unwind
Sometimes, I just go to the mall to stroll and unwind. A cup of coffee is part of the unwinding part, of course Last week, I went to the mall for lunch. I was craving for something that time and I just had to get it. Anyway, I pass by the travel items section of [...]
Awkward habit
I was chatting with a friend a couple of nights ago. We were talking about a common friend who has a habit of asking for gifts. We were often told about this awkward habit of our common friend but we were not inclined to believe it before. Until the issue about the gift card came [...]
Perfect
When I hear a song I like, I write it down and look for the video in YouTube. One of the songs I heard a few minutes ago was Perfect by True Faith. I just love this song so much! I remember hearing it even before it became popular. If I remember it right, this [...]
Filthy rich
A local celebrity allowed the crew of an entertainment magazine to photograph six of his eleven luxury cars. The photo was publish in the entertainment magazine that sold 200,000 copies, a first in local entertainment publication. Out of curiosity, I bought a copy. Did you know that the whole time I was reading about his [...]
Eavesdropping a bit
We were seated in this cafe, my sister and I, when we overheard an old woman and a younger man talking about a no exam life insurance. The guy was encouraging the old lady to go get one and to make him a beneficiary. I normally don’t eavesdrop in other people’s conversations. But this time, [...]
Craving for…
Iced Coffee with lots of cream on it! Yum! The weather in Manila right now is terribly hot. I have one electric fan all to myself, steadily blowing air to me. But it’s still hot. Muggy actually. An iced coffee really sounds heavenly at this time. While listening to a funky song and thinking of [...]
Mesmerizing moves
I’ve been looking at the same page for hours. Nothing comes out of it. I can’t get anything from it. Music videos are the culprit. Been listening for hours now. I chose some dance videos and I’ve been watching. Now that someone is asking me about GA auto insurance, all I can think about is [...]
Perfect partner for my coffee and book combo
I found the perfect partner for my coffee and book combo… a squashy couch that I have in mind for some time now! It is a best buy considering I was able to buy it at more than half the price it is being sold at the mall. I love it! I am all for [...]
