A lot might be freaked out with why we spent most of our 9pm onwards flying solo in our respective hotel rooms for our Day 1 and Day 2. To answer that, it's probably because we are a group of introverts dealing with people starting at a 7am breakfast, and it mutually drained our life … Continue reading Japan Travel: Narusawa – Hakone Day 3
Day 1 ended a little more relaxed than expected. Unlike the rest of my officemates who went out, rode the train and explored, we decided to keep it chill. No regrets there because I was so tired! However, Fatz and I planned out an early morning exploration of the park we went to the night … Continue reading Japan Travel: Tokyo Day 2
I was surprisingly blessed with the chance to go to Japan 2 weeks ago. Seeing as it was a great opportunity for me to explore since I was already there, I extended my trip to 8 days from the original 4 days. Unfortunately for me, it was the week I was swarmed with deadlines for school. … Continue reading Japan Travel: Tokyo Day 1
I just got back from my 8-day trip to Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and Nara, and of course, like any of us, I have done all sorts of research like places to go and restaurants to try. However, after my trip, I realized that there were a lot of things that were not mentioned on blogs … Continue reading 40 Important Things You Should Know Before Traveling to Japan
It became a tradition to do a year-end dinner with the family. I was the taya, so I had the say on where to eat, ha! We ended up in The Royale Sharksfin Seafood Restaurant along Quintin Paredes Street, 3rd floor of Pacific Centre, here in Binondo. The last thing I appreciate in the restaurant … Continue reading REVIEW: The Royale Sharksfin Seafood Restaurant
Marksmanship and archery are two things I always wanted to try but never got the chance to. Today, I got to experience it for the first time with my favorite people. We decided to shame ourselves at Arrowland by Gandiva at SM North Edsa. They have multiple packages that suit different sets of people that would range … Continue reading So this is what Archery feels like..
Remember the days when we spent a good time falling in line in the arcade, eagerly waiting for the previous player to finish his round of your favorite game? How about those moments when we get a good slipper punishment for sneaking out of the house during siesta time to play in that corner arcade? … Continue reading Your Childhood Nostalgia and More at Chiebog Food Park (PS: they have arcade machines!)
Out of the blue, it was a mutual decision for all of us to dine out. Part of which was because it's already quite some time when we last did but also because none of us wanted to cook that night as well. Like usual, we didn't want to be too far away from home … Continue reading REVIEW: Newly Opened Kenji Tei at Lucky Chinatown Mall
Taking an MA degree was part of my plan before I even finished my undergrad. This year, 3 years later, I had the guts to finally pursue it. I was initially torn between 5 great schools - UP-D, UP-M, DLSU, ADMU and UST. My choice became clear when I listed down 2 important things I needed … Continue reading I’m a TaMaroon now
Happy Father's Day, dad. I hope at least one of us is happy. I used to be the first one to greet you this when I was younger. But now it just hurts if I do. I wanted to write all sorts of happy memories we had like most of my friends do, but honestly, I … Continue reading (Not) Happy Father’s Day
There I said it. I've been meaning to do this for quite some years now, but I never fully commited myself to doing so till I had a recent reevaluation of how I'm living now. After ranting a post away from this one, I know I wouldn't be able to proceed without actually taking concrete steps. … Continue reading I’m Gonna Write a Book
