Kindle Paperwhite

I recently received a mail package from Steve containing my Kindle Paperwhite! I can't really define how I felt when I held it in my hands. Most of the time, I thought about it even before I went to sleep while the package was still on the way.

The Kindle Paperwhite is very thin and very light. It's satisfaction-guaranteed! It's actually 10 times more convenient as an ebook reader than my iPad 2. I wasn't much impressed with the older version of Kindle gadgets that's why I never desired to have one. I like having a dictionary tool where I can just easily press the words and the definition will appear. This version (Kindle Paperwhite) is the answer to my prayers! I don't think I'll ever read my ebooks on my iPad anymore because of it. The "vocabulary builder" in Paperwhite is very helpful for me to learn more English words. I can't ask for more!

Guilty Crown

So I just finished this Guilty Crown anime and I don't really have the right words to talk about it. It is rather difficult for me to even properly rate it. I think I'm going to make my husband watch it so that I can share some thoughts with him. I might finally arrive at some sort of conclusion when I hear his opinion.

The only thing I'm certain about is that I love the opening song very much. It's called "My Dearest" by Supercell. Take the time to listen! I'm pretty sure you'll love it 'cuz it's so catchy.

My favorite character in Guilty Crown is none other than Tsutsugami Gai. I'm pretty sure all the girls love him too because he's a good example of a rebellion leader and he always takes action. Not to mention he's the only handsome character in GC.

Stuffing Dinner at TGIFriday's

Club Sandwich for ₱375

I haven't heard of TGIFriday's before but when I went shopping with Ivan for the first time at Centrio Mall, she suggested that restaurant to me. When we were wore out our strength walking around and buying new clothes, I decided to finally take a break for dinner.

I ordered their club sandwich for appetizer which I regret a bit. It was actually delicious but my mistake was that the serving size was so large that we were unable to finish it. I couldn't believe I forgot to realize that the sandwich is a snack and not appetizer. If you want to try and have a snack there, try their club sandwich.

Adobo Ribs for ₱395

I love ribs so I ordered the adobo ribs for my meal. It pretty much tasted just like adobo. Only they used ribs. If anyone of you hasn't heard of adobo, it is a famous Filipino dish simmered with soy sauce and vinegar.

Chocolate Shake for ₱165

Ivan was the one who ordered a chocolate shake for her drink. I tasted it and it was very creamy. I think they put a lot of milk in it.

Liempo TS for ₱375

To compare Liempo TS with my order, I'd say the Liempo TS tastes better. It was juicy and very tender. Ivan let me taste some and I really liked it. I wish it was the one I ordered instead.

Mango Shake for ₱165

Okay! Here is my rant for their mango shake; it was dreadful! I cannot believe anyone would sell a fruit shake without even putting milk in it! I mean really...they just blended mango fruit and sugar and that's just it. With a high price like that? It didn't bring justice to the taste of their mango shake! It was a total rip off! I rather just buy some orbits for only ₱45. It's creamy, cheap, and tasty!

Eden's Pizza

I went to Cepalco Puerto, Cagayan de Oro City branch to pay for our electric bill. As I walked past the gasoline station, I noticed that a lot of people had walked from a certain pizza shop with a pizza box on their hands. When I finally finished paying for my electricity bill, I saw another guy came out with a pizza box again. I got curious why they have lots of costumers so I decided to buy one of their pizzas.

When I entered the room, the delicious scent of pizza greeted me. There was a 3 family members nearby eating pizzas and I got so jealous so I bought take out pizza right away. If you want to order Eden's Pizza from your home, you can call tel#(088) 855-5133. They don't charge for delivery.

I ordered their "Pepperoni Delight" for only ₱135. It was indeed delighting because it's delicious and yet, cheap! My brother even told me I should have ordered for 2 whole pizzas 'cuz he can eat the entire pizza all by himself. Well that wouldn't be surprising because the pizza wasn't really that big.

Refreshing Frappuccinos @ Starbucks

When I went to our rendezvous with my friends, I was exactly 2 minutes late. Cherryl arrived first and I found out she was actually 10 minutes early. That was so sweet of her. Since Ivan was a bit late, we talked briefly about stuff which was really okay. When Ivan arrived, we went to Starbucks to try some refreshing coffees. We were asked if we add some snacks but we're not for it at the moment so we refused.

We all ordered frappuccinos, Ivan ordered for Chocolate Cream (₱130), I chose Coffee Jelly (₱155), and Cherryl ordered  for Java Chip (₱155.) All of the orders were in "tall" size and which was the smallest size they got. It came a relief for me 'cuz I don't think I could ever drink more than that size when it's already filling. It was very delicious and I wish to try every menu they have in the near future.

The only drinks here who doesn't have chocolate syrup was mine; the Coffee Jelly. I think because the jelly inside was good enough already.

After a few hours of sitting there and chatting, one of the workers offered us their free coffee sample. I really loved it! Much more than what I had ordered. It was a blended iced coffee with whip cream and caramel syrup. I like the staff there too - they were nice and smiley. I wish we were inside though but the seats were full so we stayed outside instead. Still, I had a great time.
