Lotus Tower, Oriental Garden, Makati

Last Saturday, May 14, we checked in at Oriental Garden in Makati for a surprise birthday party for our friend. We found the place in Airbnb and the unit costs around Php2,000 for an overnight stay. We immediately grabbed it since the unit looks good and cozy from the photos and we were just looking for a cheap but a good place to stay. When we booked it, they only charged us around Php1,800 tax incl (we're not sure why, maybe because they changed the rate, ha). Lucky for us!

Title: How to be Single (2016)
Starring: Dakota Johnson, Rebel Wilson, Leslie Mann, Alison Brie
Directed by: Christian Ditter

Alice (Dakota Johnson) was trying to find herself when she took some "time off" from her long-term 4-year relationship. She met Robin (Rebel Wilson), from work, who taught her what it feels like and how to do things the "single" way. The movie took its turn when Alice realized that she's lucky enough that she has someone, her boyfriend Josh (Nicholas Braun), who loves her whole-heartedly, without "experimenting". Unfortunately, it's too late.

2016 PH Elections


At around 2:30 PM yesterday, May 9, my sister and I cast our votes. It was the most hassle-free voting experience we had compared from 2010 and 2013. Perhaps voting in the afternoon helped? The poll watchers and volunteers involved were accommodating enough despite the scorching heat. Our designated cluster was among others that had few number of people voting during that time. It only took us, roughly, 20 minutes to finish.

A night with Les Miz


I've been anxiously waiting for this night to come. Now, "I am finally here!", I thought to myself when we arrived at The Theater at Solaire, last Friday. Being inside The Theater itself gave me all the chills, in a good way. The place was jam-packed with people of different ages. You can see everyone all giddy and excited as I was. The show started at exactly 8 PM, no delay. When we were on our respective seats already, I knew it's going to be a very special night of my life. It is finally happening!
