Get Together with College Best Buddies

It's been a long time since I met my college best friends, Mimi and Janice. Mimi's currently working in another call center while Janice's working in Dubai and she just came for a short vaca. So last January 13, together with Malen (my best friend whose also working in the same company, department as I am...aren't we lucky?) we met them at Trinoma and had a full blast evening.



We started the evening with videoke session at Redbox. It's good because they have this promo for P99 per head for a 2-hour video session. We were there singing, laughing, dancing (yes! dancing!), laughing, eating (light meal), laughing, picture taking, laughing, late christmas exchange gift, laughing...from 6 to 8 pm. It was a very fun bonding! We even made a video of ourselves singing the hit song of Lady Gaga, Bad Romance. You can see us trying to copy the dance stepss of the dancers from the MTV. I, we laughed so hard. So you can imagine how tired we were after that. :)




Now after getting tired "videoke-ing", we strolled to check for a Korean restaurant because I've been dying to get my hands on their famous Ja Jang Myun ( a Korean noodle) since I've seen numerous scenes in my tons of favorite Top Korean Dramas eating that. Unfortunately, we weren't able to find one so we just ate to another oriental restaurant, a Japanese restaurant called Sumo Sam. We ordered their boodle meal, which is good for four called, "The Fight". We ordered the one called, "The Arena" which was served w/ gyoza, beef yakitori, oyster teppan, mixed tempura, chicken, tuna sashimi, salmon sashimi, yusaitame and Japanese fried rice which is good for P1,288. I love the oyster teppan! I was careful though because of my bad cholestorel. ^_^. I wish I had ordered their California Maki but I guess, I'll just come back and try it next time. The food and the ambience was so oriental. The waiters were friendly and the place was clean. It was a nice place to bring your friends and I will definitely do that again. :)



Though we have to part ways again, I'm sure that all of us will meet again some other time. It may not be in the Philippines but sure we will.... It's really nice to see my college friends who have known me when I was still younger, immature, sillier and a lot thinner.... :)

PSP3000 at long last!

They say that if you wanted something. You should write about it and make it a goal.

Not a long time ago, I made a list and I called it my Material List. I wrote that in one of ticklers.

Check out the list below:

1. External USB Hardrive
2. Portable MP3 player (dream of getting an IPOD)
3. Cellphone (dream of owning a Samsung OMNIA)
4. DSLR Camera (dreaming of receiving a CANON 40D)
5. Refrigerator (for Mama)
6. 2nd Hand Car (for convenience)
7. PSP

As of this writing, I was able to get/receive except one, the 6th on my list.

1. External USB Hardrive - I received this from my sister, Ate Yen. Thanks te!
2. Portable MP3 player - though I've wanted the ipod touch, I've opted to the cheaper version where it's ok to use in public and to carry when I'm travelling to and from work during ungodly hours.
3. Cellphone - Samsung OMNIA is way over my budget, so I got another smartphone but the cheaper one, Nokia E63
4. DSLR Camera - not the Canon but got an entry DSLR, Nikon D3000 -- love it!
5. Refrigerator - got the Electrolux, Titanum 2-Door for Mama, last last Christmas :)
6. 2nd Hand Car - still saving up for this
7. PSP - just got it! :)

So, after considering so many things like what version to get, color, capacity. I opted to get the PSP3000. Turquoise Green. I just bought the unit because this was a lot cheaper. The unit came with the 5.83 firmware version, so I had my friend upgrade it to 6.20 version so that I can play downloadable games. Thanks Jepoy for the free upgrade! So I just have to buy a separate memory card and casing....and I'm good to go!

The lowest price for one package with firmware 6.20 amounts to around P13,000 to P15,000 depends to the capacity of the memory card. So I can say that I got my on a well-reasonable price, I got the unit for P9800, the memory card for P1400 - it was Sony Memory Card and it's 8G and the casing worth P350. Another plus, I got the unit payable for 6 months through my credit card! Wicked, right?!

So, this is my new baby...I have not yet named it, so can you give me one? Since my laptop was called Bedell, my DSLR's called Nikki, I don't know what to call it..... Hmmmm.....

OK, let's play!

the new year - 2011

It's like the text message that I sent to my friends just when the new year started.

I will not be making any new year resolution this year, but I will try to be better in everything that I do so that I can see improvements in different aspects of my life.

For a start, I remembered blogging last year that I will be a better blogger the whole year through. Mostly posting related and quality post for you to enjoy and if possible even to learn something. But what happened was, I even posted less and not as much as fun as I want it to be. It seems that I even lost the interest in blogging (though it was partially true...**sad**). That was not entirely the case. I just could not find the time to do stuff that I want. I've done so many things last year that I wanted to share. Maybe I will post it here...maybe I won't. ***Sighs***

What I wanted is to have a new year with renewed fire for blogging. Soon...I think I will find it...Will you wait?

Happy Birthday Althea Nicole!

I still can't believe that our little angel is now five years old! She celebrated her birthday yesterday, April 24! YIPEE! Actually she kind of requested for a birthday party because she wanted to receive gifts on her special day. So she mandated (yes! mandated!) all of us who loves her to give her something, even a small thing that we all agreed on.

So here's the picture that we had for the celebration...

Family Day, Fun Day 2009

Thanks to my QA Family I was able to bring my family in our yearly Family Day, Fun Day. This year it was held at Boso Boso Highlands Resort in Antipolo Rizal last April 17. It was a fun filled day and for sure everyone enjoyed the activities that was prepared for all of us. My niece and my sister specially enjoyed the swimming part coz they stayed in the pool for nearly four hours.

I personally enjoyed the Amazing Race (because our department won it! LOL) and the Pyromusical with Parokya ni Edgar which ended the program. Check out our pictures and video!

Here are the pictures...
