Green Tea Mini Crispy 01

Maybe I should say early mornings. ^^; Around 3-4AM I get hungry. Why am I still awake around that time? Well, that's when I watch anime or read manga. Late nights are also the best time for me to study or do any serious work. I can concentrate without all the unnecessary noise. ^_^ Anyway, that isn't the point of this post. It's about snacks! Haha~

Green Tea Mini Crispy 03

Two nights ago, I had 2 Green Tea Mini Crispies. Tita Anne bought them in HK. Of course, she didn't give only two, but one plastic full of it. I only took one, but my Mom said to get one more because it's too light, hence, it doesn't seem filling. ^^;

By 2:30AM, I prepared a cup of (Stassen) peppermint tea (their chamomile tea tastes better) and waited til I could sip a bit before taking a bite of this kind of sweet-looking snack.

I was disappointed. XP It didn't make go, "OMG, I WANT MORE!" It was okay and doesn't taste like green tea. It tastes like polvoron. I guess the yellow with caramel-like syrup on top was there to make it taste different than a polvoron, but it didn't help. It was bland. Haha~

In the end, I only enjoyed the tea. ^_^; Oh, if you read the article on chamomile tea, I think peppermint tea (or any kind of tea) is good to drink when you have menstrual cramps. It was my first day, so the pain was awful... Drinking the tea made the pain go away. ^_^

Some recent pics of me:

o_o It's almost 5:30AM now. I still am not sleepy. Haha~ This is probably because I haven't gone out these past 2 days. ^^; Yesterday, I spent the whole afternoon until 1:30AM editing and sorting my mp3 albums so I could burn them. I'm running out of disk space as usual. Then I'm downloading Bambino since yesterday too. I can't wait to burn this, so I could start downloading other anime and dramas again. X_X I need a 1TB hd. Other than that, I managed to remove some stuff from my bed. I also had my li'l table cleaned to put some of my school notes and books on. Once I'm done with cleaning my room, I will start doing the 36 Moon's character pages on Lez's request. :D

Well, I should queue some downloads then go to bed. ^^;

To Tuguegarao [05-12-05_1349]

We went to Tuguegarao 2 years ago when my grandfather died. The first time I went there was when I was really young and my brother's probably 5 or 6 years old then. There wasn't much to do in the province aside from farming, harvesting, or raising farm animals. Since we don't live there and we don't do any of those I mentioned, it was super boring. We only stayed inside because my mom doesn't like us to talk or play with other kids there. My mom would have been fine with it if the kids or most of the people there knew hygiene. ^^;

Anyway, we visited again after so many years for my grandfather's wake and burial. We stayed there for 3 days and 2 nights. We traveled by car because we couldn't afford plane tickets much and traveling by bus is scary. Traveling by plane would be faster, but the amount isn't worth it when travel time would take about 2 hours only. I think. O_o Then traveling by bus would mean praying for your dear life because the bus has to go up a mountain and go down again... It's scary.

Our car's AC got broken when we got to Tuguegarao. At least we were already there, but the heat there is too much compared to here in Makati/Manila.

My grandfather used to be a teacher. He contributed a lot to his school it seems. There were so many students and teachers who went to his wake. We also stayed in the school's gym til 3AM. They were giving away balut. Haha~

There were a lot of insects even. But no cockroaches, so it's good. ^^; I hate those. Instead of just staying there in the gym the whole time, we looked around the areas. There hasn't been much change in that province. Most shops close as early as 6PM. We also got a taste of their pancit specialty. Ang sarap!!! :D The serving was big and only for a small price. Hehe~

My other relatives went there too. They rented a van. I don't remember whoever got there first. I just remember being so tired when we got there. I also got bruises on my knees because I rested them on the driver's seat's backrest.

The last 2 pictures here were taken after the mass and before the burial. There were so many people in the church it was kind of unbelievable how famous my grandfather is in the province.

To Tuguegarao

The pictures above are when we visited the old house of my dad. The goats were tied under a truck. I wonder if those are abandoned trucks already. The inside of the house wasn't too dirty. There were books lying around, so I took some of them. I doubt anyone there needs these. XD I took this thick Shakespeare collection book and an art lesson book. Both are hardbound and thick. ^_^ I just don't know where they are now in our house. Hahahha~ XD Because I asked the helpers to clean the books for me. I think my dad kept them in a case or something. I made a collection of the pictures. Check it if you're bored. XD;

I've been lazy and busy. ^^;;; There's nothing much to post anyway because this month "almost" turned out to be boring. But last weekend was a real blast. I remember wishing that something exciting would happen it and it did. ^___________^ Anyway, random food and drink post for now. Shots are taken with my webcam and camphone. Damn, the leche flan is making me hungry. :P~~~

Bibingka from Lola :D

Breakfast from Italliani's
I forgot what they call this, but I know it's made up of
potatoes. It's like a pizza.



Blueberry cheesecake! :9



I was supposed to go out with my friends, but
I thought I'd just stay home and eat this. XDDD



Leche flan; if you haven't tried this, you don't
know what you're missing.



Hmm... Crepe? ^^;;;



Gin XPPP
Just looking at this picture makes me want to puke.

We had lunch there last Sunday. ^_^ I'm happy we ate in a Japanese restaurant. :D Last time they treated us out to lunch was in an Italian restaurant. Not that I mind. I also like Italian food, but Japanese is 10x more delicious. ^.^
