Birthday Treat

       

           Admit it or not, all of us are looking forward to the special day where we feel loved, special, that feeling where everyone remembers you, the day you were born. So after seventeen years of existence, the day has come for my age to enter the “legal age”. Weeks before my big day, I was already thinking of what I should tell my parents to get me or how we should celebrate it. Finally, the day has come, but then I had to face the reality that I still have some responsibilities as a student, it’s Wednesday! So I had to wake up early (which is not one of my proud skills), and take a cold bath. It’s kind of irritating but I am still thankful to God that he gave me again the chance to experience a good life, another year to mold myself by the challenges around me, and another year to acquire new skills and knowledge. I just left the house and walked some distance to get to the tricycle terminal and then BOOM, no tricycle was there to take me to another terminal. I had to wait for 20 minutes, and at that moment I already knew I was going to be late.
          Fast forward! Classes were already attended and it’s time for me to celebrate my birthday. In that point I already knew how to celebrate it. And what better ways to celebrate it than eat at a restaurant serving my favorite dish. I asked my parents to treat me to this ramen restaurant called Ippudo. The ambiance was great, it had a relaxing feeling and the employees were very accommodating and they were always smiling. But other than that the food was spectacular. I ordered Akamaru Chashu, and it was reaaly living up to its reputation as No.1 ramen in the country. I was also surprised by their services, any request to the waiter would be processed right away. I ordered some extra rice and it came before I even noticed it, I asked for some utensils and in a glimpse it was already there. It gave me more reason to understand the price of what we were experiencing. The day ended with me still overwhelmed by the experience of Ippudo. If only I were given unlimited resources, I would do anything to eat there as much as possible. But kidding aside, it was really a good experience for us, and all costs and efforts were nonetheless worth it.

Angkong DImsum House

Imahe
Every after class, no matter what the time was, I always went to this famous dimsum house just along Dapitan street. Ever since my first year in college, I was always cautious of how much money I spend everyday, since my allowance is very limited. I never thought that I’d be the money-saving type of guy, because price never mattered that much to me before. As long I was able to enjoy myself in a meal, I was okay with that.  Until I got into college where every decision should be carefully made, even in terms of food. This is where I started to learn that price does matter instead of just the quality. A quality of something would even be more appreciated if it was also achieved in an affordable price. This is what Angkong is. Among all the other affordable food stalls/restaurants around the university, this is the place I always come back to. Aside from having affordable prices, they also provide the best tasting siomais and dumplings I ever had. I always had a liking for siomai, it...

SM North Edsa Cinema

Imahe
SM North has been the ideal mall for me since it’s the mall I have grown quite fond of. It’s a one stop shop, so whenever we go there, we do lots of things from doing groceries, dining at a restaurant, shopping clothes and sometimes we watch at their cinemas. I can say that the cinemas in SM North Edsa are really big, and through time they have expanded and added new cinemas to accommodate the demand of customers. Though as they expanded their cinemas, their prices also changed, the price I remember in 2014 was 190-200, but recently it has changed to 260-290. I think that their way of order-taking has a room for improvement. It is because there often are long lines whenever there are brand new movies in stall. Instead of people waiting in long lines to get their tickets, there should be more ticket counters so that this problem could be avoided. However, I agree with the way they segregated the lines to lessen the trouble and make it more organized by putting up a senior citiz...

Karaoke Hub

Imahe
My girlfriend and I have always been fond of going to karaoke booths or hang-out places. The Karaoke Hub located in SM North has been one of our go-to's whenever we were in the mood of spending quality through fun karaoke. Despite it having a slightly expensive price, the service and facilities were good by the staff and brought to the Karaoke room, The rooms were well air-conditioned and very neat. But aside from the facilities, the song were also up to date which is why it was not hard for us to choose the songs that we would like to sing. However, it feels like the time is too short for the payment that it costs per session
