Old Friends






Kid at heart







Dad’s friend dropped us near here and because we were kind of early still, we went to the nearest 7/11 first, then Lawson, and kind of passed by this playground. I mean, nothing much. Just stopped by to take Insta photos. 










I can’t explain how thankful I am of this fam. So it’s just right to pay them a visit, right? Also, my boy Tora is just so big now! I’m surprised he still remembers me. I mean, like he still remembers our closeness and stuff. He wasn’t a bit shy when he saw me. 










I don’t really have much to say. It’s been more than a year since I saw them and stuff. Loads of catching up happened and yeah, this is my family away from family when I was in Japan. Forever grateful!







Sagamiono Station







We took some photos at the station and normally, I wouldn’t but yeah I don’t really know when I’ll be back again so I took some with the mother dear. That’s about how our day went. A day well spent if you ask me. Adios!

Club Morocco | Company Outing!

Club Morocco | Company Outing!




Hola! We went to Subic for our company outing and for this year, CLUB MOROCCO. I mean, it's only my first (and probably last) but we're not mad. We love some free leisure time. Thankful for this.







I was so excited to go since I haven't really been out swimming for almost a year so we love some pool time, you know. They have three swimming pools which are all nice. There is a slide pool, infinity pool, and a wave pool!






LOBBY AREA





I promise I have pants on. It's actually a very nice place to visit. I mean, I probably won't go there by myself or like if I can decide on my own, I probably won't choose this place because it's not that kind of place. It's too lonely almost. Maybe not! It's probably just me. But we move on to the rooms. Not the cleanest. Or RELAXING. It's good for like a place to sleep but not for isolating yourself from the tiring and busy life that you have.






Of course I went down the slide! SOOO GOOD! 




INFINITY POOL





Loved this! This is probably my favorite pool there. 










The beach. Not at any way swimmable which I hate because I'd rather swim here than the pool but it seemed like the water is contaminated/polluted by oil or something. Bummer. It has a nice view though! If it were clean, I might actually go back here because it's not populated and all but sorry. 






NEVER TOO EARLY 




WORK MATES







I want to thank my employers for making us eat 5 times a day and for the unlimited drinks! Again, not in any way fancy or a luxury or something but it was really filling! Thank you guys. 







US ALL! 





Our bosses are rich. That's all. 









ST. ANTHONY REPRESENT!

Hong Kong Day 5 | Adios Hong Kong!

Hong Kong Day 5 | Adios Hong Kong!






Day 5 is kind of uneventful because we all have luggages to carry and roaming around with it wouldn't be as fun you know. So I suggest you put your things on a big backpack when travelling because that's like more doable. 










The airport food. Not so good but okay. Also not that good is the picture below. Airport food man. Very wrong. It should be the best because it’s the first food people might have but can also be the last. Get it? So yeah.










Final thoughts. I mean, it’s not for me. I know a lot of people who swear they like Hong Kong. NOT ME. Don't take it personally guys. I don't like that many people so...I don’t know if it’s just me but the people I’ve encountered there so far are MEAN. I don’t even want to talk about it now. I will tell you some other time maybe. There are lots of nice people too but you know, the vibe is not so good. I will definitely be back here but not for the people. A little bit for food. But mostly just for Disneyland. That’s all! Also, should probably check out MACAU. Because BOYS OVER FLOWERS. 


Hong Kong 4.2 | Causeway Bay

Hong Kong 4.2 | Causeway Bay

After our Ocean Park adventures. I decided I wanted to see more so I went! My sisters went to an adventure of their own so yeah. 










I only spent around 3 hours in here and I really enjoyed it! If there is anything I picked out from this solo trip is that I should have rode the TRAM. Can't do it all, man. Can't.












I liked the place. Looks a lot more like what I am accustomed to. But then again they all look the same afterwards. I guess that's what my experience was lacking. The uniqueness. 










YUMS. I had two versions of this. Actually three including the Disney one but I must say that I liked the crispy version better. This one is more like cake type. AND KIND OF DRY to be honest. 










MORE YUMS







Delicious! 





Not for the faint of heart. Like, 5 types of beef internal organs. I like it. The woman was giving me the "are you sure? face" when I bought this but I genuinely enjoyed this so like, whatevs. 










Found out that their souvenirs are a little bit more expensive than Mongkok so don't be fooled by their cheap aura. I mean one thing I learned in life in general is that there would always be a place that sells things cheaper. NEVER ENDING journey. 










That's all! I also should have checked TIME SQUARE! Whatever it is that's inside would have to wait until my next trip! That's all!

Hong Kong Day 4 | Ocean Deep

Hong Kong Day 4 | Ocean Deep






I’m afraid to show my feelings. I have definitely sailed a million ceilings. Anyways, Ocean Park. A very lovely place to be. It’s a fusion of old and new. And I like it. 












They have your roller coasters. Then your aquariums! I guess it can be a lot better though. I feel like it’s a little bit all over the place. But it’s nice.










This. My sister Mari swears it’s the scariest ride there. And it is! So windy and shaky. But beautiful and fun at the same time. You actually have to ride either this one or the shuttle to reach the more extreme rides.












My favorite ride is The Flash. It’s just nice! Can I just say that it was our first big ride there and we didn’t even know how it works prior. Then the Hair Raiser ride was just okay. Actually everything else was just okay. The drop was good because of the view.












The Dolphin Show was not that entertaining. I mean, it was nice but just okay. I’ve seen better shows in Japan. It’s very slow phased. 









WHATEVER THIS IS, WE LOOK SO BUSY







Pretty but was kind of crowded! And my tita self just couldn't handle scattered noise of small children I couldn't understand. 










Food! It was okay. Dry but tasty. We should have tasted the authentic curry at the basement of the Chungking Mansion just to know the difference. 










The line to the ride back to the ground was soo long!! I can’t even. We weren’t able to visit some attractions because again, closing time is always early. I would have loved to visit the Australian stuff there you know. That’s all? Yeah! :)
