I was about to buy a new pair of shoes but I ended up splurging on new tops and skirt inside The Ramp Trinoma... :|
Exactly the same day I decided to become vegetarian, August birthday celebrants have decided to treat the team with an ultimate buffet dinner at Dads (SM Megamall).
Because it was a very "unusual" birthday treat (usual means spaghetti, barbecue and pichi-pichi on 16th floor pantry), it's hard to turn down opportunities like that. :p
Thanks to the three generous celebrants, Rye, Radney and Rowell for making our bellies full with more than 200 food choices. :)
Girls gettin' ready for our upcoming music video...... :p
July 2011 was the first and last time I was able to go out of town with friends for an Ilocos trip. :) One of the best places I've been so far in my entire life is the Kapurpurawan Rock Formation located in Burgos, Ilocos Norte. I was captivated by the picturesque beauty of this white rock wonder. And yes, Bangui Windmills are breath-taking but this amazed me more because of the limestone formation created by the natural forces of land and ocean. Usually limestones can be found in caves but this one docks the West Philippine Sea. Before getting to the main attraction, we walked along rocks and swamps abundant with waterlilies. I remember we were welcomed by one of the local guides and he was very fond of telling stories and folklore about Kapurpurawan. According to him, the Rock was believed to be protected by fairies.

In order to post-celebrate Rad's 26th year of existence, we had some pampering at Let's Face It salon for a facial session in the morning. After that, for lunch, we tried Thai food in Jatujak Restaurant, SM Mall of Asia branch. I came to know that Jatujak (Cha-tu-chak) is a district in Thailand well-known for having the largest market in the country.
A new twist to our taste buds.. Fried Rice with Crabmeat (Kao Pad Poo), Garlic Squid, Crispy Pork and Mixed Fresh Noodles.. The looks and idea are similar to Filipino dishes, however, there is a distinct aftertaste of Thai.. I just can't explain.. :)
ArtNow for EveryONE exhibit at the main mall Atrium... (while waiting for 'The Healing').. We love the painting where all the considered villains of Philippine cinema are rebels.. (Celia Rodriquez, Bella Flores, Bembol Roco, etc.).. The exhibit will run until August 8.
Worth the wait horror/suspense film, 'The Healing'.. The casts portrayed their roles very well, especially Vilma Santos, Robert Arevalo and Martin del Rosario ... Although there is a series of deaths like in 'Final Destination', the story behind it is something new. The playfulness of the characters and the motifs in every scene reflects the genius of the director, Chito Roño.. I really like the unique concept wherein in the first scene, all the characters are wearing white.. next their wearing blue.. then red.. then yellow.. :)
