Happy 3rd Month Old, Yesha!

To my first immediate niece, Yesha - Happy 3rd month old! Her mom - my younger sister (next to me) Shandell - always makes it a point to celebrate this on a monthly basis. I think this will go on for a year, until Yesha celebrates her 1st birthday on January 11, 2010.

I'm happy I finally got the chance to her in person, and kiss and hug her.

LRT Suspended for Holy Week

I was supposed to use the LRT going to my girlfriend's place when I saw this sign hanging on the rope blocking the stair's entrance. No LRT for the entire Holy Week. Are you kidding me?

If you can't read the sign, it says:

Walang Byahe ang train simula April 9-12. Stop operation of Train: Monday pa ang byahe 13 sa Abril sa train. TY.

I kinda like LRT - it's cheap and much faster than taking a cab/jeep or driving. *sigh* What can I do?

10 Days in the Philippines

I'm in the Philippines for a short Easter vacation. This is my 2nd trip to my country of origin in a year. My previous visit was August of 2008.

This year, I'm spending my 10-day vacation with my girlfriend. This trip is for her. We're going to talk about our future together, and other plans for the "big one" next year.

Also, I'm planning to spend quality time with my brother and sisters by going to Cebu for a 3-days 2-nights trip. It should be fun.

April Fool's Day - Did You Get Fooled?

Yesterday (April 1, 2009) was April Fools Day. According to wikipedia, "The day is marked by the commission of hoaxes and other practical jokes of varying sophistication on friends, family members, enemies, and neighbors, or sending them on a fool's errand, the aim of which is to embarrass the gullible."

Luckily for me, I haven't been pranked on this day. Ever. At least not directly. But I know I've been fooled by sneaky internet articles before.

So, did you get fooled yesterday?

Jollibee in New York

Jollibee has opened its first branch in East Coast. It is located in Queens, New York. Several blogs and news reported that the waiting line is LOONNGGGG!!!


Well, what do you expect? It's Jollibee! It's the number 1 fastfood chain in the Philippines and basically a household name to all Filipinos in the Philippines and abroad. Pinoys are very excited about this, just look at the pic above.

I just wish they open another branch closer to JC. I don't know if I can go there to NY given my busy schedule despite the fact that I really miss it.
