summer vacation part 2

-

 In which I attempt to summarize my three weeks of non-postage: 
         In NAIA 3, before my flight back home, I ate lunch at this Japanese place called Roku.  The waitress saw the box of cake I had on my table and asked if it was my birthday (it wasn't until tomorrow). Minutes later, this yummy plate of gyoza (or is it gyudon? IDK!) appears on my table. A birthday treat from Roku! It looked delicious but I was too full from lunch, so I saved it for my flight and ate it on the plane. It stank the place up but I didn't care because as far as they knew, I was the freaking birthday girl. Thank you, Roku!!!
Rap's mom is so nice. She got me this pretty bracelet as a birthday gift!  
After three years, my class finally organized a reunion. Not everyone was there of course, but it was still fun. We went for a bit of karaoke at Loreto's Grill, and then us girls went for some shopping at the Night Cafe. I should hire Angel as a shopping assistant because she rocks at finding awesome stuff. (Also, yes, we got the Michael Jackson room.) 

Reunion dinner at Loreto's. This is Janine and Aloha, trying to find "SIZZLINGSISIG" on the mat. 

My dad took this picture. Artsy? (I don't know why it got rotated this way! I blame Blogger.)
Look at these freaking adorable cat stickers I found at Accessorize. UGH. I wanna buy them but they're just so useless. And I'd probably never use them anyway because they're just so adorable. Ughhhhhhh so cute
Birthday dinner at Bigby's Cafe. If you ever come to Cagayan de Oro, you MUST eat here.  Anyway that's me, puzzling over quesadillas.
Earrings from my mom, my birthday present! Blurry picture from Cait.
I took a picture of my sister Caitlin lying down on the floor, then turned it into this. 
Late-night homemade ice cream at Lola's house.
That's a picture of city lights in the rain, through a car window.  
I'm 19 now. My cheeks are a lot chubbier than they used to be, but  my heart is a lot happier as well.

summer plans

I found out yesterday from Alessi that our last exam is on the 23rd! (Yeah, I haven't gotten around to checking the March calendar yet.) My flight's on the 26th (with Gerard! ), so that gives me three extra days of ~COMPLETE IDLENESS~ woohoo. So anyway. I'm really excited to go home. It's just two weeks though, and after that, TWO MONTHS of summer classes. Which means I'll have to fly all the way back to sweltering Manila to take up the TWO SUBJECTS that I and the rest of the Health Sci majors are required to take. Gahh. I can feel the heat waves reverberating towards me from the future. Right. Lest I digress any further, here are some of my (our) ~summer plans~ roflmao March:  Go home and be happy as a bee for two weeks! April-May: Take Psychology and German. -_- Take the Carlos Celdran tour around Manila! n_n Sign up for PAWS! At last! Light up some environmentally destructive floating lanterns, and then later lecture everyone on how they've just...

women superheroes

A lot of my close friends are boys. Boys who like comic books. I hang around them a lot, and usually we talk about random things like physics and foreigners and lobsters having no pain receptors. We went to watch The Amazing Spiderman on a whim just recently. It was fun. Sometimes it's not so fun. I used to get a lot of sandwich jokes until those stopped being funny. Now I get "d'oh you're a girl so of course you hate comic books" jokes. I don't hate comic books. I love Neil Gaiman's Sandman . And Walking Dead, too. And Scott Pilgrim!!! But I don't read superhero comics. It's hard to be interested in them when most, if not all, of the superhero women 1.) have gigantic breasts, 2.) wear sexy clothing, and 3.) are always in stereotypically feminine poses. What if the male characters posed like the female ones? (c) Kevin Bolk And look at that. Why can't the men wear clothes as revealing as the women, or women wear clothes as concealing...

Box O' Rice

To be honest, I don't even remember if it's called Box OF Rice, or Box O' Rice. I hope it's Box O' Rice. It just sounds cooler that way. But anyway. I went there last Friday for dinner, and it was my first time there. It's a cozy little place right next to my dorm, and they serve exactly what their name implies: boxes of rice. Boxes of rice with toppings, of course. Emphasis on the word "boxes." Which means there are no plates involved. Which means you can bring the boxes in and out of the store as you please. I should've noted this earlier, because I embarrassed myself at the counter, telling the cashier TWICE that I wanted my box of rice "to go." Durrr. Boxed na. To go pa. Anyway, the food itself is good, for P60-P70 priced meals. My only complaint is that their meat-to-rice ratio needs a bit more tweaking. There's just so much rice, and so little of anything else! That's Pinoy portioning for you. Actually, the store don...
