Personal Notes: Family Lunch ala Vikings
Closely resembling it’s etymological definition of ”going on an expedition”, Vikings Luxury Lunch Buffet was definitely an experience. It would have been apt with the current flooding situation of Manila, that going on an expedition was really what was expected especially with us braving the threatening rains and floods of habagat as we try to savor a weekend away from such a...
Personal Notes: The Garb that is My Long Weekend
Like the rampant FB updates and tweets of i-am-away-to-a-place-beyond-the-usual, my long weekend was simply a reflective vacation, the abnormal serenity of my social media spaces. The garb may simply emphasize the length of the “weekend” stated, but I guess the allegory of the weekend is lost when I write down the non-exclusivity of the said holiday “fiesta” from my...

Personal Notes: Habagat, Flood, Stranded
I finally had the courage to open my laptop minus the sound of the torrential rains at the background. The past few days were horrible, the flood being a major component to the debacle with nature and the watershed where our home is located.
I wasn’t able to see home for 3 days, 3 nights. I thought the Dark Knight Rises was already a dark movie, and then I experienced something darker and...

Personal Notes: Brave and the Hedgehogs
Last week was all about having dinner with the geekness at Chicken Charlie , watching Brave and finally seeing the hedgehogs and Leslieanne’s new pad (newly acquired family unit)! I have another house to visit. Haha! No photos, we usually have too much to talk about with the camera being an optional tool for socializing. Haha.
No time for reviews. Above is a photo of the movie, which at...
