It’s often funny how at times you become ignorant of a thing you should be master of. Just like me, I’m majoring in chemistry for 16 years now (including college) and had worked in industrial plants yet I never touched a single fire extinguisher until last week when LSU Science Department conducted their annual orientation […]

Feature Friday: Rodeo Drive Surplus Warehouse
Feature Friday highlights businesses, people, fashion, and basically anything under the sun! Since I’m a go-getter of fab finds at very low prices, I’m into garage sales, flea markets, and bazaars. I always love the idea of being streetwise, getting more for less. I’m still the person who doesn’t splurge on clothes, shoes, and bags of […]
Pork with Young Corn and Pineapple Slices

Mmmm….. Looks yum yum, right? What could this be? Well, this is just one of my kitchen experiments without the recipe. I just cooked this through instinct. Hehe…. So, allow me to share this very simple dish to you that could be prepared in as fast as 15-20 minutes. Here’s how: See? That’s how quick […]

Burger Land Juice and Dessert
Bored of the usual burger and fries from the usual fastfood chains? Up for something Israeli? There’s this food stall I just recently discovered in our city that serves something new to the taste buds. It’s Burger Land Juice and Dessert inside Ozamiz’ leading department store, Unitop. Me and my storekeeper, Jing2x happened to check-in the place the […]
What’s the Catch at Big Catch
The moment of writing this, I’m actually standing up at 12:16 AM (onwards) for I’m still so full from the pig-out dinner me and my friends had for Ruth’s birthday at Big Catch! Like, ah! What a cheat Saturday night dinner that was! I’m still on a diet from summer vacation’s indulgence but I’d die […]
St. James Church and Catholic Rectory
In continuation to my previous post on Dr. Jose P. Rizal’s 154th birthday, here’s another post dedicated to our national hero. Just a 5 to 8-minute drive away from Rizal Shrine stands the church where Rizal heard mass every Sunday during his exile in Dapitan, the St. James Church and Catholic Rectory. It is a […]

Mad Mark’s Creamery and Good Eats

Jollibee, McDo, Chowking, Greenwich – these are by-far the top 4 Philippine fast food chains Filipinos love the the most! And these are also the only fast food chains our little Ozamiz can franchise. FYI, we haven’t got KFC, Pizza Hut, Max’s, and Shakey’s yet. So whenever I’m out and about, I always see to it not […]
The Eton Residences Greenbelt

Urban living has never been my thing because residing in big cities always wears me out physically and mentally. I couldn’t withstand the land, water, air, and noise pollution, long hours on the road due to heavy traffic, and mobs of people crowding the streets which makes me dizzy. Moreover, there are plenty of people but there […]
