monday funday!
Friday, September 7, 2012 @ 8:07 AM

seeing as that it was my finals week this week, i haven't had time to really update my blog. and now that i'm on term break, i finally can. :-)

aside from the fact that i conquered finals week, i think this week was rather interesting for me. for one, i think my monday was spent eating. and not just any food, it had to be one of my absolute favorites: japanese food! i don't think my craving for japanese food will ever end.

i had lunch at yabu house of katsu with my friend, camille, and my boyfriend, gabe. always a pleasure to have lunch with these two since they love food as much as i do!


whenever i eat in yabu, i always order their pork katsu, specifically the hire. it's like regular pork katus, minus the trimming of fat. they offer you two options, either 100g or 150g. the first time i ate in yabu, i made the mistake of underestimating how much 150g really is, so i ended up not finishing my food. after that experience, i stuck to just ordering the 100g hire. it's just enough to satisfy my hunger and my craving!

camille and i ordered the same thing, which was the 100g hire, while gabe ordered the 150g rosu, which is like the hire except it has a trimming of fat. so for those of you who like melt-in-your-mouth fat in your meat, i highly recommend the rosu katsu. :-) i would also recommend the kurobota pork if you're willing to spend a little bit more.

after lunch, we left with satisfied tastebuds and happy tummies. yabu never fails to satisfy!

monday, september 3, also happened to be my brother's 13th birthday. feels just like yesterday that he was still shorter than me, but now he's a teenager and is towering over me. :-( haha.

we ate in sugi and yet again, i was a happy girl.

my beautiful grandmother. would you believe she's already 73? :-)

my cool parents.

my lolo and his favorite. hehe.

miso soup.

cuttle fish sashimi

tuna sashimi (we also had salmon but it was devoured.)

dragon roll!!!!

beef tepanyaki! yum yum yum!

happy birthday twerp!

i wasn't able to take as much pictures though since my family basically devoured the food before i had a chance to photograph them. typical, now i know where i get it from!

whew, what a long post! i'm sure tomorrow will be just as eventful as monday since i'm eating at yabu again before heading to camille's despedida.

have a good weekend, everyone! :-)

this is going to be a lengthy post since i had such an eventful day, so please bear with me.

it's become a rare occasion for me to have a free day nowadays but since i had one today, i decided to visit my friends in the katipunan area.

i had lunch with my friends camille and martin in this place called brickfire. the place was packed since we went there during the lunch hour. it was a tiny, but very decent place and to my surprise, the food was pretty good and very reasonably priced.

so, here are some snapshots from my lunch date with camille and martin. :-)

camille trying to avoid having a photo taken!


martin, who did not finish his food.








after lunch, we headed to ateneo to meet up with some friends. ateneo has probably one of the most beautiful campuses i've ever seen here in the philippines. however, i don't think i'd be able to handle the heat, so i have to give it up to their students for being able to concentrate despite the intense heat that they experience there.

my good friend, ella. :-)


my other good friend, anton. :-) thanks for driving us, ton!


and upon getting home, i was welcomed by the cutest baby on earth + the smell of my mom's cooking.



cranky cause he was sleepy and everyone kept bugging him. but afterwards, he was all smiles!





and then there was dinner...

baked parmesan chicken

chicken chorizo paella

vongole

beef salpicao

salad

so, this was my day in a nutshell. what a day it was. haha!

it's become a monthly thing since he was born for my cousin, jordan, to come and visit us here at home. he is probably the most photogenic baby on earth and he absolutely loves the camera. here are some photos from his last visit. he's an absolute delight to shoot since he loves the camera so much!

 such a cutie, right? :-)






off to lala land for him! goodnight, jordan! :-)

over the weekend, my friends and i hit cebu for a much needed break from our hectic school life. here are some shots i took during our trip. most, if not all the photos are candid and unedited. it's not much, but it should do for now. will update this once i get my film prints from the photo printer's. ☺
