taho

taho is one of the local foods in philippines traditionally eaten during breakfast. it is made of tofu, sago and something sweet called arnibal (sp?). as early as 6 am taho vendors are on the street selling taho from house to house. very delicious and nutritious breakfast.

some thoughts on blogging

one of my thoughts on blogging is that its very difficult because I feel as though I'm talking to myself or to a void. on the other hand, sometimes it's oddly comforting because I can say whatever I want very freely. of course I wish that someone would give me a response or reaction, but as for now I guess it's fine to go on talking... it's nearly my dinner time and i will have fried chicken and rice. if you wanted to know more about my life, it's really very quiet and boring. in my free time i like to watch the TLC channel at prime time. i find it very relaxing and interesting to see how people make cake or cook meals in 30 minutes. i also try to read books and at the present I'm still trying to read the sci fi books i picked up months ago. I find that I'm a very slow reader in the sci fi genre because it has so many details to cover in my opinion. for the most part, i'd have to say that there's not much going on. LOL. hmm. also i've been following these tips on how to reduce stress in your life. one tip is that to listen to music that is slower than your heart beat such as rnb.

mocca

Nowadays Ive been feeling that something's missing but I'm not quite sure what it is. I decided to rename my blog today to decaflife. Since I'm not allowed to have real coffee anymore, I guess it's one of the things that I could revolve my life around to and write about... Alot of the foods and drinks I've written about here aren't caffeinated. I guess I can now write about my days decaffeinated. Today I had a decaf mocca frap from starbucks. Sure I miss real coffee, but I admit I kind of really like it, because I don't have that jittery feeling.

halohalo

today is one of those rainy days in July. it was pretty cold but i still had a halohalo (crushed ice with milk, leche flan, banana and buko) from razon's. what sets their halohalo apart from the rest is that it doesn't have beans and ube. however i really like how it tastes a lot like milk!

spagetti

i went to old spaghetti house today and had a spaghetti pomodoro. their iced tea is delicious. nowadays i am craving for iced tea everyday. i wonder why? is it because i gave up coffee for decaf?

fairyland

Nowadays I am reading this book called Fairyland by an English writer named Paul McAuley. It's a science fiction future where dolls have come alive. For rating, I would give it 4.5 stars out of five because it has the most imaginative narration I have encountered so far.

sandals

today i bought a new pair of sandals from Guess. It's a casual open toed flat sandals with gold strap. Nowadays I really prefer to wear flats. My usual flats gave out so I got myself a new one. I'm very happy with it.

Monte Carlo

Today I went out and watched a movie called Monte Carlo. It stars the actress Selena Gomez and Blair Waldorf I mean Leighton Meester. It's a light film about how a mistaken identity led to a European adventure. It was alright.
