Spit it Out!

I, together with Mavic and Tetet, planned on joining the free heritage tour around Manila hosted by Royal Posted Heritage Guided Tour . The said tour set its meeting place in the Manila Post Office's lobby between 12:30-1 pm... Since we had a lot of time after attending the 8 am Mass at The Feast, we killed our time appreciating Philippine art at CCP for the 2016 Pasinaya Open House Festival. Anything that is related to Philippine art, whether it be a painting, drawing, song, dance, play you can see it at the festival. Since we were only killing time, we weren't able to see a lot, we spend more time on viewing paintings, drawings, and crafts. Various paintings displayed at the second floor of CCP Show your creative side with slippers Art using bleach. This one is my favorite among the all the artworks displayed at CCP.  Tetet writing on the freedom art piece Traditional costumes are also displayed You can even try making your own masterpiece. I actual...

My goal for 2016 is to involve myself in things that will make me happy, better, and make me some money (who doesn't need money,anyway?). Let me start with career. I'm already 26 years old and I, believe it or not, still doesn't have a regular job. I graduated in 2011 and was blessed enough to immediately get my license to be a Physical Therapist.  Then I started applying but to no luck,I always (as in ALWAYS) ended being a volunteer (or auxiliary) Physical Therapist but nevertheless I still give my 100% to help my patients recover until 2 years ago, I found myself not being happy or motivated with what I'm doing.  I found myself battling every morning whether to go to work or not, so I have decided to stop deceiving myself and said goodbye to where I was working. Then, I started making money on my own by being a private PT, instead of the patients going to hospital/clinic to get treatment I went to their homes to give treatment, up to now I still have a patient/s ...

  너무   맛있어요...  진짜  맛있어요... It's very delicious... Really delicious... My love for sweet food and Korean food has led me to an idea of trying to make a very popular Korean street food called Hotteok.  It is like the Korean version of our Piaya. Hotteok  seems hard to make but it isn't. But let me warn you, patience is needed to make this sweet snack. INGREDIENTS: Dough: 1/2 c. warm water 1/2 Tbsp. yeast 1/2 Tbsp. sugar 3 c. flour 1 c. milk 1/2 Tbsp. salt Filling: 1/4 c. brown sugar 1/4 c. white sugar 1/2 tsp. cinnamon powder 2 1/2 Tbsp. peanuts,chopped PROCEDURE: 1. Make the yeast mixture. Mix warm water, yeast, and  sugar. Set aside for approximately 5 minutes to allow yeast to grow. Make sure the water is warm and not hot. If it's hot, the yeast will not grow. 2. While waiting for the yeast to grow, sift the flour and salt. 3. Add milk and the yeast mixture to the flour. Mix until well blended. 4. Cover the dough...

About a month ago my brother bought a jar of kimchi. We had it as a side dish and one time my brother mixed it in his pesto pasta. Today, I tried making kimchi bokkeumbap or kimchi fried rice. This recipe is really simple, all you need is leftover rice and kimchi. That's it! Those two ingredients are enough, but if you want to add pork, beef, ham, or bacon you can do so, just like what I did today, I added hotdog into my kimchi fried rice. Ingredients: 1/2 c. kimchi (cut into bite-sized portion) 1 1/2 c. leftover rice 2 pcs. jumbo-sized hotdog (cut into small cubes;optional) 2 Tbsp. kimchi juice Procedure: 1. Saute hotdog for about 2 minutes. 2. Add kimchi and saute for another 2 minutes. 3. Add the rice and cook for another  5 minutes. Also, add the kimchi juice. 4. Top the fried egg on your kimchi bokkeumbap and you're ready to go! Oops! I kinda ruined the egg. I didn't add any salt or seasoning because the kimchi's flavor is enou...

"Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things,but learning another way to think about things." - Flora Lewis I'm into Korean dramas since I was in high school, Korean movies and food after I graduated from college, and this year I've been quite addicted to Korean variety shows and songs which lead me to be more interested in learning their language. My brother and I decided to enroll in Korean Cultural Center 's 3rd term (for this year) for Korean language class, but unfortunately the schedule that we wanted was already full. So, out of my desperation in wanting to learn the language, I decided to study it on my own. One thing I like about internet is that when you need to know something it's just a click away. So, I used this awesome benefit of the internet for my self-study of Hangugeo. And, here, I list the websites that I'm relying on: 1. Pinterest This is where I first learn how to write Korean lette...

When I first set foot in Bicol last 2009, I’m already happy to witness the perfect cone of the Mayon Volcano, wander at one of the beaches in Cam Sur, and to be in CWC but when I visited the place again last week I have discovered that there’s more to explore in Bicol. When we visit Bicol, there's only one place where we feel at home and that would be at Pier one 39 Spring and Beach Resort . The resort is situated at Brgy. Sto. Ni ño, Sag ñay, Camarines Sur. The people at the resort, especially the owners are very accommodating. For more info about the place, visit their Facebook page here .     Makiling 1 One of their closed cottages. This is where we usually stay. They have a pool where the water came from the spring and the sea. They drain their pool every night, so you can be sure that the pool is clean every single day. Enjoying at the pool with Iya while we can still manage the depth of it. Here are the things I did with my (extended) family i...
