Books for Less Warehouse Sale: a book lovers cheap thrill (August 2014)

So I decided to go to the Books for Less Warehouse sale in Pasig. I a not meet my friend who says confusing ways of going to the area in the most ambiguous ways as well.

I went to Ortigas Shaw and took a jeep going to Pasig Palengke (Market) and went down the Rotonda area. I met my friend there are took a tricycle going to La Consolacion College Pasig on Mercedes Ave. We arrived at the Warehouse at around past 9 am.

It was a hot day with no hint of rain. The place was quite small and a bit crowded with tables almost touching each other. The space for walking among the stacks of books can barely allow a person to go through and may take an effort when passing another person.

Received postcards (August 5, 2014)

I got my cards again after a few days. It seems postcards are coming in a bit slow. I also got my knit knit postcard I swapped with someone on the Postcrossing group on Facebook.

Eats @SM Fairview: Not just another food fair

Eats @ SM Fairview

One food fair is different from another. There are many factors that make a good food fair. There is the people, the food and the service, even the venue plays a role in it.

SM Fairview is a long way for me but I came to see the event and enjoy with my eyes as well as with taste buds.

I came early with a friend from a walking tour jut hours ago. I was good to be early but we were way earlier than the expected time. It's hard not to miss the venue. White tents that contrasts with the traffic that around,; that is the buses and the people.

Here I go with the EATS @ SM FAIRVIEW.

Facebook goes down again (August 2, 2014)

At around past midnight of Saturday, August 2, 2014 Facebook goes down and so is the many fake lives it has spawned.

The famewhores are worried about their selfies and many Pinoys are already on the brink of depression and suicide.

So what did many people do? Try and try until it opens up once again. What shit will we get this time from Facebook?
