TRAVEL | Kamayan sa Palaisdaan, Tayabas Quezon

Kamayan sa Palaisdaan, Tayabas Quezon


Celebrating the Christmas season with my friends back in the countryside we decided to hit a native restaurant located in Tayabas Quezon Province. The place is called KAMAYAN SA PALAISDAAN. I've been visiting this place ever since I was a child. My parents and I used to frequent this place and even back then, I've very good memories of this place. Before, we can even fish here for fun. The "Tilapia" (St. Peter's fish) is simply infamous in this place and I would definitely recommend this place to all who wants to experience honest to goodness Tilapia. I bring my foreign friends here once in a while and they are satisfied.

TRAVEL | Starbucks, TechnoHub Philcoa; Don Antonio, and Convergy's

Starbucks, TechnoHub Philcoa; Don Antonio, and Convergy's


So here comes 2011, and I'm wordless. Funny I'll be sitting in front of my computer at a time like this when I'm supposed to be out and having fun. But then again, I am better off without me spending too much since I have to save money for this rainy days to come (figuratively!).

Last night though, me and my colleagues dropped by STARBUCKS TECHNOHUB PHILCOA QUEZON CITY to have some coffee at 2am. It was rather late but since we have nothing to do the following day so it was pretty fine.

Starbucks Philcoa is the place to hang out if you're in the UP Diliman area. Actually, there aren't many cafes in this area so if you just feel like sipping that much deserved cup of coffee/chocolate then you can visit this branch.

As far as I know, there are two other Starbucks in Commonwealth. One is located near Don Antonio. Personally I prefer staying here since not many people come here. Very quiet, except when some stupid-insensitive customers start chatting in their higher trhan normal voices. The toilet is spacious and near so you need not worry about leaving your laptop since you can come back for it quickly. The staff in this place are also very accommodating. I like the fact that the staff here are courteous and helpful. You can always ask for an extra shot of soya milk if you're dissatisfied with your serving. The guard's really nice too. You can always ask him to safelock your laptop if you choose.

The other place is located near St. Peter's parish (the same building with Convergy's). Although I won't recommend this branch since it's usually crowded with call center agents and Koreans studying inside.

JOURNAL | To Write More

To Write More


I've been thinking really hard how I can write more efficiently in my blogs. Lately I've been so busy with all the work here in the office I couldn't find time to sit back and write. Of course I know that writing should not be taken for granted.

A Story of Growing Old


This video surely made me cry when I saw it. Somehow it touched me and made me think how my wonderful my future will be if I grow old with someone whom I can really just talk to, and have fun. Hope you enjoy this video as much as I did.

This has been long overdue. I have started going to the gym since August and I only felt the urge to write this about the gym I go to.

JOURNAL | Intraspection Again

Intraspection Again


I'm not really sure what to write for now. My mind's so blank from all the important things I have to finish this week. Well today I was able to finish my recommendation letters and that's something that made me happy despite the fact that I wasn't able to attend to my job interview. These days sleep has become so important to me that sometimes I wish I can just stay in bed as much as I want- which I can't do of course.
