Fun weekend: Conciert Piyu - Osto Kwatro (FEU @ 84)

Here's what happened with my weekend off from work :D
Honestly, before that big day, I wasn't really planning to go or I'll say, I'm thinking if I'll be watching the concert or not. but then friday morning, I've made up my mind that I'll be going to instead, so I texted my some of my college friends, especially those who are attending Law school and have classes during that day. I received a response from Christian (one of my college barkada who's also in Law school but with San Beda. Luckily he didn't have class that day and he was also thinking of going, so we decided to go to FEU together, but before going straight to school, he first asked me to come with him in Marikina, to pick up his graduation pictures! FINALLY, after almost a year! hahaha, and after we got his grad pics, we had lunch at Kenny Rogers at Sta Lucia Mall which is just a footbridge away from the photo studio, I also got hooked up with his new toy! his Apple Ipad 3G! It was so niiiice that I got to play Angry Birds and go on facebook. Haha. We did window shop a little, bought a chain accessory for my cellphone before we head to FEU riding a cab, because by that time, we were so lazy to ride the jeep and LRT going back! lol. and sheezzz, our bill's like Php300! lol but it's worth it because we get to talk about a lot of things during that cab ride! :p

We arrived at FEU around 4:00 in the afternoon, went to the Law library to meet some of our college friends! chat a little, stayed at the University's food court and had meryenda, then goes to freedom park to wait for the concert to start, around 6pm, there were already a lot of students as at the quadrangle since the concert as usual, was held at the FEU grand stand, the stage was great! we noticed they already put a cover so if ever it'll rain, the show will not be postponed like what happened last year. LOL. they also put a runway on stage so performers can walk through it closer to the crowd which is really nice! very Party Pilipinas or ASAP like! :)


Concerts kicks off around 7pm, i think? with hosts from FEU's very own. then there's Valerie Concepcion who's really gorgeous and sexy! she did a lil bit of co-host and singing with a student of her personal choice from the crowd, and there goes one of the main artists, Someday Dream (Rez Toledo, Singer) who I must say performs like a foreign artist! he's also very good looking. :) the night went awesome with FEU home grown talents who also showcased their own performances, lastly, the very main artist, PUPIL! the crowd goes wild as they performed! wohoooo! we didn't really finish the whole show, I slept over at my bestfriend's dorm because it was kinda late that time and I got the chance to bond with my Trio loves again! :)

all in all, the concert was awesome!!! as always, FEUCSO (far eastern university central organization) has done a good job! *round of applause*

Here are some pictures I took that night, the crowd, the stage, college friends I'm with that night :)

Good food you might wanna try!

I've been really wanting to blog about this way back a couple of months now, but because of my rotating shift, I've just been recently updating my blog again.

Anyways, it's actually about a fast food that I've discovered late last year when I started working in Makati, It was when the time I'm looking for a good place to eat after shift, good food with affordable price, and that time I don't wanna eat at those common fast food we see almost everyday! coz if that so, I could've just eat at the same fast food few block away from our house right? lol the name was "CHUBBY CHECKER" well it's not actually in Makati, It's located in Pasay taft Buendia, few steps away from the LRT station and since I usually take the train going home, I took time to try what's good on their menu.

by then I found out their specialty was the Chicken Bourbon, originated in the U.S. (accdg to google haha) and by having this meal with two pieces of the chicken with rice, it will just cost you Php89 and I must say it was worth it! the sauce was I think the real magic why it turned out to be so delicious! so whenever I eat there, this has always been my choice! LOL


I happen to ate there again with one my officemates and I've finally tried something else, and It was their Porkchop with rice which was also good, this will cost you php79 and my office mate tried their spaghetti (Php59) and hotdog sandwhich (Php25) and all in all she gave it 7 stars out of 10!! :)



When I'm actually googling about the fast food, I found out that It wasn't that properly yet, I think they just have two branches, in Buendia and in Novaliches, I believe. oh and a little trivia that I saw online, Chubby Checker is actually a name of a foreign singer way back, I 80's, I think! So I was thinking maybe the owner likes the singer so he named it after his fast food business, that's just a wild guess! hahaha.

So looking for a good place to eat, I suggest you try chubby checker and please don't forget to try their specialty! lemme' know what you think :)


ANOTHER THING...
Recently, I've also tried out Shawarma rice and it's just along Buendia near the LRT station as well! I and my office mates got addicted to it actually, and we were eating this after shift for three straight days hahaha It was all good for only Php45. You might wanna try it as well!! :D

My friday - off.

My first day off from work. and since it's friday, it was also my pay-day, so the original plan was to go clubbing with some friends, drink some beer, dance and chill a lil bit since I really miss clubbing! it's been a while since I've done that because I never had a weekend off for quite a long time now! so I thought friday would really be perfect! well of course.

But due to some instances, two of my friends texted me they couldn't make it, so instead of forcing them to try to make it, I end up cancelling it because I was also hit by laziness for some reason. lol. So I texted my bestfriend, Darleen, that instead of going out friday night, I'd rather visit her in her dorm since it's been months since I last saw her because I was busy from work and her being busy with Law school.

I stayed the whole day with her, we ate pizza and went online together at a computer shop nearby, plus my favorite part - our endless heart to heart talk whenever we see each other :)

oh, and speaking of pizza! I have a new discovery, well, her discovery. actually, haha. she introduced me to Dexter's Pizza, though the pizza parlor was familiar, I didn't know they had one really good pizza flavor. it's the Shawarma Pizza. Darleen's so right when she told me It was really tasteful! because it really was! We had two boxes for just within that day! one large and one medium! and now im still craving for it. Lol.

You must try it!! Nearest branches are in Manila are at Espana, Mla. the one we ate at. and at Vito Cruz Ext. other branches are way too far! lol



This is how the Shawarma Pizza looks like! - ohh. why do you have to be sooo yummy??




At Dexter's Pizza Parlor in Espana, Manila.

Got my hair done! 01/16

Since it was my first leave from work ever which happened last Monday, I've also decided to have my hair cut and also hair color that day! well, i didn't really plan to have my hair cut short, but to be really honest, having long hair is really a hassle for me, for a fact that I'm so lazy when it comes to combing my hair lol. the hair color was actually my personal choice. it turned out exactly what I want it to be. Autumn Chesnut was the color!

I had my hair done in Reyes haircutters, just a few blocks away from home. my hair cut was P100 and for the hair color, it was P600. so it's a total of P700 for my complete hair transformation, Not bad.

I was happy bout the result so I gave a pretty good tip for my stylist that day! he did everything, from the hair cut, to the shampoo (twice) and the hair color! and I'm glad my officemates and friends liked it as well. :)



While waiting for the color to stick to my hair. waited for like 15mins :)





This is how it looks like right after! (with blow dry lol)





and this is how it looks like the day after and 'til now! the real result :)


Thank you REYES HAIRCUTTERS! 'til next time! :*
