Addicted to Frozen Yoghurt
Intense Chocolate During my last trip to Manila, my cousins and I went to Amara in Serendra at The Fort twice. Both times, my cousins were craving for frozen yoghurt. Amara's Intense Chocolate did not disappoint at all. It was like frozen native chocolate. We also got to try Mango and Chocolate. Chocolate was kinda blah and boring compared to the Intense Chocolate. Mango was a good alternative if you do not feel like having chocolate. Mango and Chocolate I am not addicted to frozen yoghurt. But my cousin, Tinky is. She kept on bugging us to find more yoghurt places. But since we'd always go out late, we always ended up at Amara. And she was happy with that. Tinky thinks Amara sources its frozen yoghurt from a supplier also sells at the Salcedo Market. Tinky enjoying her Intense Dark Frozen Yoghurt If you know of other good frozen yoghurt places or stores in Metro Manila, do comment here for her. (I'm blogging on her behalf right now, but do watch out for her own blog soon.) Kuya Andrew, Tinky, her boyfriend Allan, and me
Matt Taught Me to Post via Mobile
I'm here at the Manila Pavillion with THE MATT MULLENWEG. Also here are other WordCamp organizers: Kuya Andrew, Blogie, Winston, and Dave. Matt taught me how to post via mobile. Here it is. ;) Some tips and notes for mobile WordPress-ing: Go to http://m.wordpress.com Log in. The numbers you see beside your blog's name is your site's statistics. If you click on your blog's name on the list, you will be directed to the site interface that is NOT for mobile posting. To post via mobile, click on the post tab on top. You won't be able to attach photos. There are no shortcut buttons to HTML codes/formats. The tags field is actually a categories field.

Thank You Boys!
Just when I was starting to become jaded and pessimistic, the world, you guys, gave me a reason to smile. You made me cry, made me remember, made me realize that everything has not been in vain, that the hard work has not been futile. Thank you for making me believe again! Thank you for making me realize I still matter! Thank you for giving me a reason to move forward! THANK YOU!
Me at the Eraserheads Concert
photo by Markku I remember listening and singing to Toyang a dozen times a day when I was in Grade 5. In Grade 6, I memorized "Pare Ko" by heart, and even watched the movie based on the song. LULZ! My favorite Eraserheads songs were With a Smile, Huling El Bimbo, and Fruitcake. Huling El Bimbo became popular as me and my first year classmates in 1 - Pearl of PSHS-MC were about to part ways. Fruitcake, on the other hand, became popular during the Christmas season during my second year. I remember my classmates Rhoda and Kimberley giving me a Fruitcake cassette as a Christmas gift. I was a fan. Not a total fanatic, but I loved them nonetheless. When news about their reunion concert spread, I never expected that I would be able to watch it. It just so happened I am in Manila for work. But then I really didn't have the P800 for the tickets. But one day before the concert, Poyty sent me an SMS informing me that Red Horse through Juned and Markku was giving away tickets to bloggers. Eraserheads. Reunion. FOR FREE! How could I say no?! So there I was 4 pm…
