Case 6: Naalala kita, SEMBREAK!

After 5 days of contemplating on what happened to me (rather not talk about it here guys and gals. :D), I’m back! Yes. Hehe So what keeps me busy the past few days?

1. Been reading book 7 of the Harry Potter series. This coming November is the screening of the first half of the film so it’s crucial for us potter fans/geeks to catch up and remember every single important detail. Lol! Just kidding! It’s always a habit of me to read HP series during breaks, I don’t know maybe it’s some sort of escape from reality.

2. Another book that I’ve been reading is Hunger Games by Suzzane Collins (2008). I’ve been hearing good reviews about this book and been advised several times to read. And I heard it will be adapted to a movie with no specific date yet, I think. I will not write anything about this book, all I can say is just read it! And I need to catch up, because book 2 which is Catching Fire (2009) and book 3 Mockingjay (last August) are already out. But I need to save muna so I can buy the other 2. :D

3. Hell yeah! The balikbayan box just came this afternoon! Remember the LIST? Haha. When my parents and sib returned last August 27^th, they already brought some stuffs with them but most of the items I had written on the LIST were not yet completed. Until now! hehe

Kenneth Cole stuffs in NY are really cheap! That’s why I asked for those. I think they have outlet stores that sell these with discounts.

Dove! Though not on my list, I’ve been using dove for 5 months for face and body. Hehe. try the 7 days Dove Challenge and see the difference. Lol! Seriously, dove made in US has a different feel compared to local ones.

The bag! I need a new backpack!

Shirts! I’ve been controlling myself to buy shirts for the past month and it was worth to save money for new clothes

The tumbler (pointed). My brother told me that these are sold out already in most stores in NY. So lucky us to get 5 of these! Hehe And all are in good hands. :D this is not my shelf by the way, it’s my friend’s and she’s been collecting different cities! Yey for her. hehe

4. Lastly, I cooked dinner tonight.

Tuna and mushroom in white sauce

Iced tea with lemon

need to point the lemon! lol

Certified Coffee Addict

Before, I was against reviewing in coffee shops. Ewan ko ba? feeling ko di naman nakakaaral talaga yung mga tao dun. Nakakadistract yung mga tao, yung music, at magastos. All changed after few weeks at inamin ko sa sarili ko na din a ako makapag aral dito sa dorm.

Totoo naman pala yung naisip ko. Haha! Na minsan nakakadistract yung mga tao at yung music at totoo magastos, pero I proved myself wrong nung nakapagaral naman ako. I can finish reading chapters and handouts with ease nung nagbabasa ako sa coffee shop na to specifically the one in Timog and Tomas Morato. It depends where you review siguro like in Morato where most Medical and Law Students review, they have this special tables where you can read. Nakakahawa yung ambiance na magaral since you’re seeing everyone studying. The one in Timog is nice too, spacious, konti ang tao minsan, and nandun yung favorite couch ko na kung anu-anong posisyon na ata nagawa ko. Hehe

Magastos pero I think worth naman kung nakakapagaral ka and mas oks kung makapasa ka, diba? :D

So here’s a random list of the 5 drinks in Starbucks that I usually order. These are the ones I usually order kapag tumatambay lang or nagrereview. Oh, and I usually asked for a mug of ice and water, para di naman puro kape lang iniinom ko. hehehe

1. Iced White Chocolate Mocha

sweet and very light, if you try this, sasabihin mo na, "kaya ko gumawa nito" but no! hehehe

2. Iced Vanilla Coffee Jelly Latte

just tried this yesterday, with one shot of espresso, gising na ko nun. problema nawiwiwi ako ng madalas. hehehe

3. Raspberry Black Currant

usually a hit or miss kasi yung iba parang may mint flavor na ewan.

4. Iced White Café Americano

another pampagising, i was told this have 4 shots of espresso. matapang pero oks naman.

5. Honey Orange Frappuccino Cream Based

i had this last year pa ata, seasonal thingy siguro. yung cream based yung nasa left na kulay white. namiss ko tuloy. :(

Diba picture pa lang nakakataba na? haha. kaya i order and asked na no whip, para di naman nakakakonsensya sa diet kuno. hehe

Pero pag tipid na tipid na, nasa cabinet or ref lang naman dito sa dorm ang 2 sachet ng Nescafe 3in1 Sweet n’ Creamy + Milo + hot water + Cowhead Fresh Milk = solve na solve na! hehehe.

X’s - Ngayon, bumalik ang aking hyperacidity kakape! hahaha
