Right in the middle of our garage, pop constructed his wooden PAYAG (hut) and this tiny place had sort of become our family’s convergence zone for card playing (tong-its anyone?), napping, talking, working, eating and a whole lot more. Tonight, we had lovely dinner together with my 2 cousins that consist of rice, water, fried … Continue reading »

Lakwatsa RestoLounge via Groupon
Sister gave us another dinner voucher again worth 800 pesos and this time, it’s for the Lakwatsa Restolounge located in Hernan Cortes. It seems like there are loads of restaurants sprouting in this area and honestly, I don’t want to bother going to these restaurants at all since we live far south and we don’t have … Continue reading »
Acoustica via Groupon
Sister turned into a Groupon fan I think based from the many vouchers we have received this year. For my brother’s birthday, we get to enjoy Acoustica with a value of 900 pesos. We find Acoustica to be homey and simple. The prices are very friendly also (we only had to add 369 pesos) and … Continue reading »
Lapu-Lapu v.v. Cebu Ferry Route
It’s election year again in Philippines and it seems that politicians see it as the best year to fix roads. Maybe because they wanted their “good deeds” to be fresh still in the people’s mind? Due to the terrible traffic starting yesterday because the old bridge was being fixed and everyone had to use the new … Continue reading »

Cheap me … Continue reading »
Chateau de Busay Wedding
As of January 5, 2013 at 10 AM, there were 5 single ladies left in our group. Yes, Gie was a freaking traitor of our Spinster Club. Anyway, it was a fine church wedding (the kind that’s usually every girl’s dream wedding but my own) with priest bubbling about being unequipped to give any advise … Continue reading »
Finally, Buhisan Dam
A few months ago, I tried getting to Buhisan Dam but it turned out to be a complete failure because permit from MCWD head to gain entry was required. WTF! Thanks to mom’s assistance and connections, she gave me the contact information for which to address my Letter of Request. Yay! So on my second … Continue reading »
Waterfall in the City: Kabang Falls
We wanted to do something together in the city that doesn’t involve spending much money so we checked the internet and read about a “hidden paradise” right in the middle of the city. This information certainly caught our attention so off we go to check this place… 1. At Ayala Terminal, we rode Jeepney bound … Continue reading »
Lantaw Floating Restaurant
Our team is made up of a bunch of cheapskate members so we decided to have one celebration that fits all: Christmas / Birthdays / Farewell. And the venue is: Lantaw Floating Restaurant in Day-As, Cordova, Mactan I love this restaurant but getting there could be quite tricky because the road is a bit narrow, … Continue reading »
